I predict the Bills trade up for a receiver, they don’t have a #1 receiver and that is a glaring hole on an otherwise strong roster.

It wouldn’t shock me if the Vikings traded up with the Cards or Chargers to ensure they get the QB they want, even though I think it would dumb, no one between picks 4-10 are going to take a QB, so the same guys available at picks 4-5 will be available at 11. I think McCarthy will get drafted ahead of Penix/Nix, although I think Penix is much better, I honestly don’t get the love for McCarthy, he’s extremely overrated IMO.

I'm having a hard time believing the Rams plan on keeping/using their 1st rd. pick.

If the Rams take Latu I'm going to be pissed off. I know Seattle needs guards but I'd gladly take Latu for Seattle at 16. Him, Mafe along with Nwosu and MacDonald's ability to adjust and scheme for every team, would be an absolute nightmare for QBs.

Then draft guard/guard/fat DT with the next 3 and roll.

I think the Falcons should consider taking Latu at #8, I think he might be the best pass rusher in the draft, but the injury concerns with him I think will cause him to fall some.

Yah I mean at 8 you can't go wrong with either. Turner is more athletic (not by a huge margin but still) but athleticism only gets you so far in the NFL. Latu is the best pure pass rusher due to his skillset and hand placement. I don't know if the injury concern is a huge thing. He had the neck thing yah, but it was 3 years ago and I think he played every game since.

6 QB’s in the first.

Think first 4 go top 6, then Nix, and Penix goes late 1st to a team wanting that 5th year.

3 WR’s go top 10, at least 3 more go 1st round.

Trying to think the last time a draft was this offensively heavy. To your point like 6 WRs, 6 QBs, 3-4 OTs, 2-3 Gs, 1 TE.. if this class has Gibbs/Robinson too boot I can't imagine any other offensive draft like it. 19 offensive players was the highest (happened 3 times). Maybe this year will break it. The roles I listed above I think are a lock... there's always some other reaches.

WaltFootball (usually one of the more accurate mockers) has 22 predicted in the 1st :eek:

I think that means some massive talent at defense will fall.

I fully believe the best player in this draft is Brock Bowers. A TE.

He will change whatever team drafts him.

There isn't another player that could or would change a teams makeup tomorrow more than Brock.

I see Xavier Worthy closer to Mecole Hardman than Tyreek Hill as of right now but it is one of those things where you can't let other prospects not reaching their potential get in the way of a different man reaching his own potential.

There are a couple of draft analysts who think this would be a slam dunk for KC if he lands there and I can see it.

Before Donald retired I expected the Rams to trade current and future picks for short-term quality starters. Now...things are less clear.

I think there is a good chance that the Eagles, who have two second round picks, trade up from 22 and into the teens with someone, especially if one of the offensive or defensive linemen they like falls. Like, if they can get a Jared Verse, Dallas Turner or JC Latham, I could see them trading into the 14-18 range.
