This looks at affect of this trade on the rest of the draft. I had just completed my latest draft on 4/3 using best available with position of some need as basis. Interesting to see the "ripple" effect of a couple of changes. This is only first two rounds. I assume Tennesee gives Ari their second round pick with swap of 1st rounders. In notes I show pick from my original draft. Where affected, I had team pick next best available player for that same position.

Round 2
Steelers:
Jaelyn Duncan, OT, Maryland 
Again i copycat Walt's picks. this one makes sense. No affect of trade
Texans:
Siaki Ika, DT, Baylor 
A very good player for a very sore need. If Cowboys pick him, then Texans wait for Breesee. No affect of trade
Cardinals:
Will McDonald, DE, Iowa State 
Two very good Edge rushers named Will in the same draft? Who does this? While McDonald is not very good against the run, he will earn his keep on the pass. Suprisingly, no affect of trade.
Colts:
Hendon Hooker, QB, Tennessee 
Another big Ripple, i had Colts taking Steen OT when they had a first round QB, now they have to reach and get Hooker who is most ready to play. Gardner can hold down the fort awhile. Some would put McKee here. I would not argue
Seahawks:
Keion White, DE/OLB, Georgia Tech 
Another DE Ripple, i had Seattle taking Foskey here. But he is gone, so Keion White steps in. Take a look at their Dline now whew! who believes it!
Raiders:
Trenton Simpson, LB, Clemson 
Raiders get help in the middle while it is good. Same comment as above. no affect of trade
Panthers:
O'Cyrus Torrence, G, Florida 
Another OL ripple, here O'Cyrus is available. I had Carolina taking Cody Mauch so this is an obvious we will take the O. Mauch is not bad. Just O'Cyrus better
Cardinals:
Cam Smith, CB, South Carolina 
This was Titans 2nd round pick they traded to go up for QB. They were slated to take Derick Hall. Here, Cards get CB help they need. Another RIPPLE
Packers:
Keeanu Benton, DT, Wisconsin 
Aaron really isn't going to like this pick - no offensive help. Tee hee, it don't matter. This guy won't have to move far...and he knows how to play in the cold. No affect of trade
Patriots:
Tyler Steen, OT, Alabama 
Another ripple, Steen had been taken by Colts at 35, he is better than Anton Harrison original pick
Commanders:
Tanner McKee, QB, Stanford 
Another huge ripple. I had Redmanders taking Hooker here. But he is gone to the Colts. McKee is not the best fit to the system, but he is best QB
Lions:
Daiyan Henley, LB, Washington State 
The LB keep rolling off the shelf until the good ones are gone. No affect of trade.
Buccaneers:
Max Duggan, QB, TCU 
Another ripple. Originally I had Bucs taking Mckee because he fits the Tom Brady mold. Maybe they can talk Washington into swapping.
Dolphins:
Cody Mauch, G, North Dakota State 
Wow, Dolphns finally get a pick. Don't mess with the commissioner. It doesn't end well. But they get a good pick. Ripple continues here. I just like this guys name. He sounds like a hardass. Good fit for Miami
Seahawks:
Steve Avila, C, TCU
Seattle works on the other side of the ball, but still on the line. Best center available. no affect of trade Their draft is getting more impressive. and I am a Texans fan
Bears:
John Michael Schmitz, C, Minnesota 
The run on centers is started. And he played in cold weather. No affect of trade
Chargers:
Quan Martin, CB/S, Illinois 
Quan is a CB and a Safety prospect. Chargers need both so his talent and flexibility land him here. No affect of trade
Lions:
Darnell Washington, TE, Georgia 
Not a lot of demand for TE in this draft. Any other time, he would have been long gone. No affect of trade
Jaguars:
Zacch Pickens, DT, South Carolina
This is a reach, but necessary. There is a large demand for DT's and not enough good ones to go around. If you wait for the round he should be there, he won't be there.No affect of trade
Giants:
Kelee Ringo, CB, Georgia
While there are a lot of good CB's in the draft, they need to be taken. This is a good pick for this slot. No affect of trade
Cowboys:
Zach Charbonnet, RB, UCLA 
Cowboys need a running mate for Pollard. That is new style for RB's in the NFL to keep them healthy and keep their price low. Good pick for this slot also. No affect of trade
Bengals:
Emmanuel Forbes, CB, Mississippi State 
Ripple effect slowing down, but here. For some reason, I had Cam Smith here, so Bengals get next best CB in line
Bears:
Cedric Tillman, WR, Tennessee
What every QB loves, a fast tall receiver who can catch the ball. This makes Fields look even better. No affect of trade
Eagles:
Prospect not selected
The Eagles are feasting on this draft. They can't believe what is available. This is another Ripple pick..I originally had Forbes CB here. This affect goes all the way to the 7th round for every CB taken
Chiefs:
Gervon Dexter, DT, Florida
Another deep reach for DT. I had Gervon slotted for 4th or 5th round. But there is no one availble before then. No affect of trade
