I'm fine with Wright and Kraft.  In the second i'd go benton or Brents.  We gotta start flipping the defense.  If they took Brents, I'd g Ja Roy in the third then double down on TE on day three.

I wouldn't argue either of those really, i'm just super high on Abanikanda.  RB3 for me behind Bijan and Gibbs (who I think would be a great fit for the Bengals if they traded down from 28 or up from 60, just don't see him making it to 60).

[SmittyBacall]

Really good looking mock. Feels more realistic than most. What is it about Foskey and Hyatt that has them ranked so high?

Hyatt I think is underrated by the online community, i'm just a fan of his speed, agility, route running, and I think WR falls off quick this year so they are going to go a little higher than some think.

Foskey is just super reliable, I think NFL teams are going to like that and see a guy who is an immediate contributor.

I get it in theory, but we have holes we need to fill now. If we were to trade one of Young or Sweat now, fine.

It's fine. I'd probably prefer one of these three though.

I do like that

[scar988]

Falcons draft is good. I think Ringo is more of a S, but if hte team likes him at CB, they like him at CB. Good overall picks for need, value and scheme fits.

Not a fan. Kelce should have a couple elite years left and our backup could be starting on a number of teams. Give us BPA DL, WR, or Anton Harrison here.

I haven't scouted the player, but I like the position.

I haven't scouted the player, but I like the position.

Overall, I'd give it a C. Our TE depth is a strength even before picking Kincaid. DL is a need as well as OT competition/depth.

[minutemancl]

I like it for the Giants. Gibbs is so much value to pass up in the 2nd, so I really like that pick. Flowers is a very strong possibility in the 1st, and filling that need at corner in the 3rd with Kelly is a solid choice. Wypler would also be a good choice there.

[FalconFan13]

Falcons draft is really solid overall with a ton of upside in the 1st 2 picks for sure.  Still a bit worried Ringo will end up needing to be a safety but in the 2nd round it's worth a try for sure.  Wouldn't take him in round 1 at all though but thats just me.   As for round 3 i like Bergeron and i'll never be mad about a OL in the 1st 2 rounds.  But Ika is 100% my choice there i have a love for watching that guy play i really want him as a Falcon if he falls to round 3 big time. 

 

[PackFan13]

I would hate that first pick for the packers. I don't think Hyatt is anywhere near worth 15th overall. He's fringe top 5 wr in this years draft. Zay flowers if we go WR that early and JSN is off the board.

The Raiders don't need an OT

Better than most.

Kincaid will not be popular with the Kingdom but I like it. Kelce will be 34 and an heir is needed. Kincaid will get as much play in the passing game as a typical rookie WR. Other Chiefs fans wold want Harrison or Mazi.
If you don't take Mazi, Dexter is not a bad rendition of the Brick Wall. That said, I lean Siaki Ika and Bergeron is a possibility. 
I'm not a fan of Steen. Alabama OL have a tendency to lack upside. For the team attitude consider Jamaar Taylor. You could go a lot of directions here--Ege, WR, BPA 

[Tetsujin]

Miami doesn't really need a DB early. But I like Antonio Johnson so much, I'd take him. It's hard to see a prospect like him dropping to Round 3.

I know you love Abanikanda.'  I just can't see the team going offense with all three of their day 1/2 picks.  Wright seems like a great pick, but if they don't move Jonah, then I'm not convinced they even take an OT.  So a defender could come at that pick.  What I really hope happens is we use Jonah as part of a pick swap, like Jonah and our third for someone's mid second.  Or trade back out of the first.  A ton of guys who fit our needs will be there in the second and early third.
