1.1 (Cancun) - Kayvon Thibodeaux, Edge, Oregon:


B, While Thib is an excellent prospect BPA alone is a construct of a false reality.
Teams are typically picking the best player available that fits a team need, Cancun, imo, didn't need an Edge Rusher. The more logical selection here for a team with virtually no depth at CB and no #2 CB for that matter would have been Ahmad "Sauce" Gardner.

 

1.2 (Anchorage) - Aiden Hutchinson, Edge, Michigan:


A, Despite the criticisms of Arm Length, I do believe Hutch is the best Edge in this class. 

 

1.3 (Gotham) - Ahmad "Sauce" Gardner, CB, Cincinnati


A+, Gotham got it right. Needing more depth and a more surefire #2 CB, they went BPA-Need here and selected the singular Elite CB Prospect in this draft. 

 

1.4 (Antartica) - Travon Walker, Edge, Georgia


A, While there might be some questions about Walkers ceiling, I think this is an excellent addition to Antarticas defense, especially when you consider they do not currently roster a single Edge rusher.


1.5 (Rome) - Kyle Hamilton, S, Notre Dame


A, I like Hamilton and I think he is a good addition to the Rome defense, however they really need an OT, I personally thought that would've been the A+ selection they needed. Having said that, there's absolutely nothing wrong with adding a potentially elite Safety prospect at #5 overall.


1.6 (Anchorage) - Jordan Davis, INT, Georgia 


A+, I see Davis as a versatile Defensive lineman, perhaps you'd argue that it's not a need. Okay, but what exactly does this team need? This was a pick for the future, next season with so many guys on contract years, this allows them to not feel pressured to find a way to get everyone back, even if they could. It's a step to keep an elite defense elite. 

 


1.7 (Anchorage) - Derek Stingley, CB, LSU

B+, I think this is a smart selection here, Anchorage continues to add to their young secondary with a guy with very good skills. While there is some question marks about his production, the skillset is there, he has the ability to build into a top flight CB.


1.8 (Lancaster) - Evan Neal, OT, Alabama


A+, Traded up to get Neal, imo, an elite OT prospect to build that offensive line around Trevor Lawrence, can't go wrong with that. 


1.9 (Anchorage) - Ikem Ekwonu, OT, NC State


A, While not necessarily a need right now, like his Davis pick, this is a move for the future. Likely replacing Havenstein in 2023, Ekwonu has all the tools to become an elite OT.


1.10 (Berlin) - Drake London, WR, USC


A, it was pretty clear for quite some time now that London was very high on Berlins radar. They get a solid pass catcher here as they continue to rebuild their offense.

 

1.11 (Raleigh) - Jermaine Johnson, Edge, FSU


A, There is a lot of potential here and Raleigh needed an edge. How he develops will truly be about who drafts him in irl.

 


1.12 (Seoul) - Trent McDuffie, CB, Washington


A, Really like this pick for them, McDuffie is an excellent CB Prospect fitting of a Zone concept. There is only one CB i had rated higher. be a welcome addition to Seouls secondary.


1.13 (Camden) Treylon Burks, WR, Arkansas


A+, He actually might be my favorite WR in this draft and was actually #1 on my board. His size and ability/willingness to be a blocker is going to be a huge asset in the NFL against physical defensive corners.

 


1.14 (Rome) - George Karlaftis, Edge, Purdue


A, Berlin is cursing you right now. Absolutely a guy on his radar, there's been no smoke, just fire about this. They Leap up in front of Berlin to get their guy, I like it.

 


1.15 (Seoul) - Daxton Hill, S, Michigan


C, I do understand that safety was a need here but I also believe they could've gotten Hill I'm Round 2. I am stunned they did not go Garrett Wilson here like they should have. I have Wilson significantly higher personally on my board than Hill, this one left me scratching my head.

 


1.16 (Berlin) Garrett Wilson, WR, Ohio State


A, The moment Seoul passed on Wilson, this was a forgone conclusion. Imo, they got a steal here. Mind you the WR room in Berlin is starting to get crowded, I'm not sure where else they could've gone here that would have made more sense.
