Round 1

Picks 1-16
1. Titans: Cam Ward, QB, Miami

BIG BOARD: 29


2. Browns: Travis Hunter, CB/WR, Colorado

BIG BOARD: 1


3. Giants: Abdul Carter, OLB, Penn State

BIG BOARD: 2


4. Patriots: Ashton Jeanty, RB, Boise State

BIG BOARD: 3

Everyone keeps telling me Jeanty to the Patriots is crazy... I have 3 blue chip grades in this class and he is one of them. In such a shallow draft, what downside is there to drafting a player you know is going to be a great NFL player? I think Drake Maye would love this pick.


5. Jaguars: Mason Graham, DT, Michigan

BIG BOARD: 4


6. Raiders: Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Arizona

BIG BOARD: 7


7. Jets: Colston Loveland, TE, Michigan

BIG BOARD: 5

I think Loveland is amazing. I know the need at RT is massive right now, but this is not predictive so I will have some fun here.


8. Panthers: Will Johnson, CB, Michigan

BIG BOARD: 8


9. Saints: Will Campbell, OT, LSU

BIG BOARD: 11

The Saints need to build out this roster before taking a QB. Ride with Rattler or an injured Carr to the number one pick next year.


10. Bears: Omarion Hampton, RB, North Carolina

BIG BOARD: 6

I think it is unlikely Jeanty makes it to 10. I love Hampton's game and think he can be a superstar.


11. 49ers: Kenneth Grant, DT, Michigan

BIG BOARD: 12


12. Cowboys: Jalon Walker, OLB, Georgia

BIG BOARD: 15

I am afraid Overshown may never come back fully from this injury. I think Walker can be a great EDGE or LB, which is versatility the Cowboys need right now.


13. Chargers: Tyler Warren, TE, Penn State

(TRADE UP)
Chargers Receive: Pick 13
Dolphins Receive: Pick 22, Pick 55

BIG BOARD: 10

Everyone knows the Colts are taking Warren. If Loveland is off the board at this point, I think it is likely someone tries to jump them. Warren would be such an amazing fit in this offense.


14. Colts: Kelvin Banks, OT/G, Texas

BIG BOARD: 17

The Colts do not have Braden Smith or Raimann under contract next year. Banks positions them for the future. Even with his shorter arms, the Colts will give him a shot at OT.


15. Falcons: Luther Burden III, WR, Missouri

BIG BOARD: 19

I have fallen in love with the idea of Burden in this offense. They should be able to manufacture lots of touches for him.


16. Cardinals: Jihaad Campbell, LB, Alabama

BIG BOARD: 16
