Round 1

Picks 1-16
1. Bears: Caleb Williams, QB, USC

Correct


2. Commanders: Jayden Daniels, QB, LSU

This too


3. Patriots: Drake Maye, QB, North Carolina

Yup


4. Cardinals: Prospect not selected


4. Cardinals: Marvin Harrison Jr., WR, Ohio State

Probably


5. Chargers: Malik Nabers, WR, LSU

He's just too elite to pass up. Alt isn't a RT and RT at 5 seems a bit rich anyways. If they don't trade down I like Nabers.


6. Giants: Rome Odunze, WR, Washington

The way this falls is either Odunze or Bowers. McCarthy to the Giants isn't happening.


7. Titans: Joe Alt, OT, Notre Dame

You bet


8. Broncos: J.J. McCarthy, QB, Michigan

Denver needs to trade up for McCarthy and this is about as far as they can get without involving Surtain. Works out in the scenario.


9. Bears: Byron Murphy II, DT, Texas

Do they listen to their new QB and take his HS teammate Fashanu? A trade down is possible with Vegas wanting Penix but I think they hold tight and take the first defensive player here. Everyone's got edge rushers but Murphy has that Aaron Donald Feel to him.


10. Jets: Olumuyiwa Fashanu, OT, Penn State

The Jets will trade down for a 2nd Rd pick but Vegas won't give it up to move up 3 spots, nor should they. There's 3 good edge rushers, 3 good DB's and plenty of OT's available so no one is forking over the extra 2nd so they stand pat and take Fashanu. Bowers was a close 2nd


11. Vikings: Michael Penix Jr., QB, Washington

Way too high for Penix but here we are.


12. Falcons: Jared Verse, DE, Florida State

Look at ATL getting their choice. Turner is falling due to medical and Verse really looked great in pre draft testing


13. Raiders: J.C. Latham, OT, Alabama

Now that Penix is gone it's Latham all the way


14. Saints: Troy Fautanu, G/OT, Washington


14. Saints: Troy Fautanu, G/OT, Washington

Fautanu will stick at LT for New Orleans here.
