It's that time of year again! Who's excited? I think the first round will be interesting. What teams do you cheer for? What are they in need of?
Round 1:
1.Cleveland: Myles Garrett - DE (Texas A&M)
2.Chicago: Mitchell Trubisky - QB (North Carolina)
3.San Francisco: Solomon Thomas - DE (Stanford)
4.Jacksonville: Leonard Fournette - RB (LSU)
5.Tennessee: Corey Davis - WR (Western Michigan)
6.N.Y. Jets: Jamal Adams - DB (LSU)
7.L.A. Chargers: Mike Williams - WR (Clemson)
8.Carolina: Christian McCaffrey - RB (Stanford)
9.Cincinnati: John Ross - WR (Washington)
10.Kansas City: Patrick Mahomes II - QB (Texas Tech)
11.New Orleans: Marshon Lattimore - CB (Ohio State)
12.Houston: Deshaun Watson - QB (Clemson)
13.Arizona: Haason Reddick - LB (Temple)

Root for the Ravens. We need offensive linemen (center and tackle especially), a wide receiver who can get separation with his route running, a corner, and some pass rushers.

Vikes. No 1st round pick for them. But we're a QB, RB, FB, 3 WR, TE, 5 OL, 4DL, 3LB, 6 DB, a kicker and punter away from being a legitimate team

Yeah at the time I was excited about the trade because our defense was SB caliber the prior year. All those contracts were coming to end soon and with the Teddy situation, it was basically now or never so we needed a QB, but yeah it isn't great now. |

SharbsAlso, the O-Line had too many injuries.

I'm a Steelers fan myself. They're doing great on offense as long as Ben, Bell, and Brown stay healthy. I think they need to get younger on defense.

Gotta give credit to Goodell for embracing the hate.
Jags better not fuck this up. If they take a QB at 4 like how people have been speculating, Caldwell needs to be fired and this is coming from someone who's been defending the guy a lot.

Joaquim Yeah, Bortles hasn't lived up to hype, but he needs more receivers than Hurns. There's probably another receiver I'm forgetting.

It seemed obvious the Browns were going to pick Garrett.

He needs to have another 4,500 yard, 35TD season like last year. Problem is our former offensive coordinator didn't let him go to California to work on his mechanics like the previous year. He worked on them this offseason so I'm hoping for a similar season like that one. And with the #1 pick the Browns have decided to ruin the career of Myles Garrett. |

Did not expect Chicago and San Francisco to swap places.

I'm worried Thomas and Allen will be the next two picks. I want one of them on the Jags although I prefer if they trade down to get OJ Howard.

Trubisky goes to the Bears. Didn't see it coming but I really don't think it should be much of a surprise.

Things did get interesting. I didn't expect the Bears to pick Trubisky, especially with them signing Mike Glennon. I guess the Bears will play Glennon and have him mentor Trubisky.

What are the Niners gonna do about their QB situation now? Trade for Kirk Cousins. |

urbanpatrician They picked up Bryan Hoyer and Matt Barkley in the offseason.

I don't follow the offseason, but would the Redskins seriously trade Cousins? I know he ended their season with an interception, but still. The organization is a clusterfuck and they let their Top 2 wide receivers join other teams in free agency. The Redskins may want to keep Cousins but he'll probably want to leave, especially considering other teams will give a ridiculous contract unlike the Redskins who just franchise tagged him for the second straight year. And the 49ers take Solomon Thomas. Now the Jags have an easy pick. TAKE JONATHAN ALLEN. Or trade down, either one is fine. |

lol the Bears are such idiots. Trubisky probably would have been there with the next pick.

Good pick for the Titans. Mariota gets that #1 receiver he's needed. Hopefully he and Jalen Ramsey can form a great rivalry.
