Well all the way-too-early fantasy hype about Javonte Williams being a Top 3 fantasy back this SZN is dead now because Melvin Gordon is back.

Denver is going to be a problem this year.

Benjamin Allbright, one of the Broncos radio guys is pretty much a hawk with his mock draft. Easily among the most anticipated ones, always puts it a day prior unleashed his. Has had a respectable hit rate(All things considered, he can't forecast trades).:

I would be contempt with Gardner/Jermaine Johnson draft. I get that. Not high on Jermaine Johnson but with how the top 9 shakes, you do that. Might go with Garrett Wilson over JJ personally but EDGE is biger priority. Take WR and S/LB with the 2 2nd's. Like Pickens and Jalen Pitre/Quay Walker and roll with it. Would sting to lose Thibs 1 pick earlier though.

Pickett at 6 is an absolute disaster, Daniel Jones levels of ugh. Amazing Evan Neal would slip that far. Saints would look like absolutely geniuses to give up the draft ammo to jump over the Chargers if they got Neal and LAC got stuck with Penning. 

Washington drafting another receiver? 😂

Bro. Terry McClaurin is a great receiver but has had 6 QBs in his career so far in Washington.

Between Curtis Samuel, Terry McClaurin & potentially Garrett Wilson all as the WRs, they might as well try to get Ryan Day out from Ohio State at this point. Even drafted Haskins too. 

If they bomb this year, CJ Stroud would look good in Burgundy & Gold. 

I would be over the moon if the Saints ended up with both Evan Neal and Chris Olave. That would be such a dream scenario. Not a chance that happens.

I’m apathetic towards Burks but am beginning to think that’s what happens if he’s there. I just don’t know about him. Some things I love and some I hate.

Totally plausible from the Packers perspective. Still don’t see why Carolina goes quarterback and a lot of those rumors have died down.

I definitely think receiver is in play for Washington.

They aren’t exactly deep at weapons and Wentz needs all the help he can get. Don’t think I would do it but I get their reasoning.

Probably want either Ickey or Cross and in this scenario they are getting neither. Maybe they are one of the teams who have red flags on Evan Neal's knees and maybe he's off their board entirely. They seem like a team begging to make a trade down happen. 

On a pure cool name basis I want Ickey and Sauce. :lol:

Thibodeaux has started to pop up more connected with the Giants lately though and after his very cool impromptu appearance on ATN I'd be all for that too. He couldn't have made the supposed character concerns seem like any more of a fabrication.

I really want him at 4. Even more than Sauce. Absolutely biting in on him, he could be saying this for the sake of but man. Dude is oozing with charisma. 

1. Jacksonville Jaguars - Travon Walker , Edge , Georgia - This really seems like it's going to end up being the pick. Personally I'd fire Balke for this but we will see what happens with Walker. The kid has potential but also has shown very little pass rush prowess even in the chances he got at Georgia. 

2. Detroit Lions - Aidan Hutchinson , Edge , Michigan - The dream scenario for the Lions. I can't imagine for a second they would pass on him if the Jaguars do no matter what some of the smoke screens might be. 

3. Houston Texans - Derek Stingley , CB , LSU - A really tough pick to nail down , I think Houston might swing for the fences with this pick in hopes of getting a lockdown corner in the secondary. Stingley is more boom or bust that Gardner but has elite upside.

4. New York Jets - Sauce Gardner , CB , Cincinnati - I think they would go edge here but a ton of rumors that it's going to be Gardner and I can buy it. Gardner is the cleanest prospect in the draft and the Jets can't afford misses. 

5. New York Giants - Icky Ekwonu , OT , NC State - The Giants get lucky by getting the best player at their biggest need to fall to them. Ekwonu would be a huge step forward in finally transforming the offensive line. 

6. Carolina Panthers - Charles Cross , OT , Miss. St. - I think they are a prime trade down candidate for a team looking to move up for tackles but if they can't get the right offer I think it's going to be Cross who they would hope can come in and help solidify their offensive line. 

7. New York Giants - Kayvon Thibodeaux , DE , Oregon - The Giants dream scenario getting maybe the best tackle prospect and a top edge rusher in Thibodeaux. With both corners off the board I think they have to go edge. 

8. Atlanta Falcons - Evan Neal , OT , Alabama - I know there are rumors about Neal falling but I'm not sure how much to believe them. If the Falcons want to be made in Smith's culture they need to improve the offensive line - especially in the running game. Neal would go a long way in that. 

9. Seattle Seahawks - Trevor Penning , OT , Northern Iowa - Sticking with this as it just seems like a perfect Seahawks pick and the tackles are flying off the board fast. 

10. New York Jets - Garrett Wilson , WR , Ohio State - Really tough one here as they could go any of the receivers. Williams , London or Wilson all make sense but Wilson provides the soonest more complete package. 

11. Washington Commanders- Kyle Hamilton , S , Notre Dame - Sticking with this one as well. Hamilton fits Rivera and would be an immediate upgrade and the kind of person the Commanders should draft.

12. Minnesota Vikings - Jameson Williams , WR , Alabama - With the top two corners off the board I think they take a swing at receiver. They don't need Williams right away but he would be a huge upgrade to their receivers down the stretch and create a great duo with Jefferson for years to come. 

13. Houston Texans - Drake London , WR , USC - They went defense with the first round and now they get a huge receiver to compliment Cooks and help improve the targets for Mills. 

14. Baltimore Ravens - Jordan Davis , DT , Georgia - If DJ says it's going to happen if he's here then I'm going to believe him. He has more Ravens connections than anyone. 

15. Philadelphia Eagles - Jermaine Johnson , Edge , Florida State - Great fall here for Johnson and the Eagles swoop him up. 

16. New Orleans Saints - Tyler Smith , OT , Tulsa - A little raw prospect but the Saints need to fill that spot at tackle and they can't trust Smith is going to fall to their next pick. 

17. Los Angeles Chargers - Chris Olave , WR , Ohio State - With the top tackles off the board willing to take here , the Chargers upgrade their receivers with Olave. 

18. Philadelphia Eagles - Trent McDuffie , CB , Washington - They would have taken him with the first pick and he falls a few more spots to create even more value at a big need. 

19. New Orleans Saints - Kenny Pickett , QB , Pittsburgh - I think this just might be the way the board falls to them. I'm not sure it will be Pickett or not but he seems like a Saints type. 

20. Pittsburgh Steelers - Desmond Ridder , QB , Cincinnati - Could be him or Willis here , I think Ridder makes more sense for the all around type quarterback Pittsburgh would want. 

21. New England Patriots - Nakobe Dean , LB , Georgia - Seems like such a perfect fit that there's no way it's actually going to happen. I'm going to keep doing it anyways. 

22. Green Bay Packers - Treylon Burks , WR , Arkansas - It looks like the board is going to fall this way for the Packers if they don't trade up. I don't know what to make of Burks but he does fit the offense and has a ton of upside. 

23. Arizona Cardinals - Zion Johnson , OG , Boston College - They desperately need to upgrade the interior of the offensive line and Johnson is a mauler. 

24. Dallas Cowboys - Devonte Wyatt , DT , Georgia - All the concerns about him don't really concern Dallas and they take a swing on maybe the most rounded tackle in the draft. 

25. Buffalo Bills - Daxton Hill , DB , Buffalo - Could easily play corner in Buffalo with his size and speed and they like the versatile types like Hill. 

26. Tennessee Titans - Malik Willis , QB , Liberty - The perfect quarterback to come in and sit behind Tannehill for a year before taking over. 

27. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Kenyon Green , OG , Texas A&M - Instant starter to replace what they lost along the offensive line. 

28. Green Bay Packers - George Karlaftis , Edge , Purdue - Perfect third man in the edge rotation and the dude just seems like a Packer even if I prefer Cine or Jones here. 

29. Kansas City Chiefs - Kyler Gordon , CB , Washington - One of their biggest needs by far and Gordon is a fast riser. 

30. Kansas City Chiefs - Jahan Dotson , WR , Penn State - Maybe the best ball skills in the draft and a versatile addition to the Chiefs receivers. 

31. Cincinnati Bengals - Devin Lloyd , LB , Utah - The Bengals don't have a ton of huge needs so they take the BPA and find a leader on the defense. 

32. Detroit Lions - Sam Howell , QB , North Carolina - The Lions would be dumb not to take a swing on a high upside quarterback here. 

--------------------

33. Jacksonville Jaguars - Tyler Linderbaum , C , Iowa - Going to keep mocking this though the Jags are probably too dumb to pick him. 

34. Detroit Lions - Lewis Cine , S , Georgia - The type of player Campbell would love and they have a brutal safety room. 

35. New York Jets - Quay Walker , LB , Georgia - Still think this makes a ton of sense to pair with Saleh. 

36. New York Giants - Andrew Booth , CB , Clemson - The Giants have done well with Cornerbacks falling due to injury in the past. 

37. Houston Texans - David Ojabo , LB , Michigan - It comes with risk but Ojabo was a potenital Top 15 pick at one point and the Texans need upside. 

38. New York Jets - Travis Jones , DT , Conneticut - What Blindy wants , Blindy gets. 
 
39. Chicago Bears - Skyy Moore , WR , Western Michigan - A nice compliment to Mooney and an extra weapon for Fields. 

40. Seattle Seahawks - Matt Corrall , QB , Mississippi - They can't go into the season with Lock being their only option at quarterback. 

41. Seattle Seahawks - Kaiir Elam , CB , Florida - Now they focus on the secondary with a big physical corner in the Carroll mold. 

42. Indianapolis Colts - Arnold Ebiketie - Adding another edge is something the Colts always look to do and Ebiketie is good value here. 

43. Atlanta Falcons - Christian Watson , WR , North Dakota State - High upside receiver that can stretch the field. 

44. Cleveland Browns - Boye Mafe , Edge , Minnesota - Someone to come in and help Garrett on the other side. 

45. Baltimore Ravens - Jalen Pitre , CB , Baylor - Seems like the perfect Ravens type player as well. 

46. Minnesota Vikings - Jaquan Brisker , S , Penn State - They need help in the secondary and a future replacement for Smith. 

47. Washington Commanders - Dylan Parham , G , Memphis - They are going to need to protect Wentz if they want him to have a sliver of hope at QB. 

48. Chicago Bears - Bernhard Raimann , OT , Central Michigan - Falls due to age concerns but a potential 10 year starter for the Bears at a steal of a spot. 

49. New Orleans Saints - Jalen Tolbert , WR , South Alabama - Deep ball threat that would pair nicely with Thomas. 

50. Kansas City Chiefs - Breece Hall , RB , Iowa State - They get the best running back in the class to fall to them. Hall could be a huge steal here. 

51. Philadelphia Eagles - Leo Chenal , LB , Wisconsin - They couldn't stop the run at all up the middle. Chenal would fix that in a hurry. 

52. Pittsburgh Steelers - Abraham Lucas , OT , Washington State - The Steelers still have an abysmal offensive line. 

53. Green Bay Packers - George Pickens , WR , Georgia - Read a lot of reports Pickens isn't expected to go in the Top 50 , the Packers take a chance here in hopes they can make it work. 

54. New England Patriots - Drake Jackson , Edge , USC - Uber athletic and versatile edge that Belichek can mold. 

55. Arizona Cardinals - John Metchie , WR , Alabama - A refined route runner and pro caliber receiver when he gets healthy. 

56. Dallas Cowboys - Luke Goedeke , OL , Central Michigan - A potential replacement at RT or G for them. 

57. Buffalo Bills - Kenneth Walker , RB , Michigan State - The Bills wait on running back and get the second best one. 

58. Atlanta Falcons - Josh Paschal , Edge , Kentucky - A versatile edge defender with huge upsdie. 

59. Green Bay Packers - Logan Hall , DL , Houston - A physical specimen with DL versatility. Hate him in the first round but take a shot at him here. 

60. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Trey McBride , TE , Colorado State - Gronks future is up in the air and they have no sure thing at tight end. 

61. San Francisco 49ers - Cole Strange , OG , Chattanooga - Great fit for Shanahans scheme. 

62. Kansas City Chiefs - Nik Bonitto - Pure pass rusher but would be a great piece for Spags to utilize. 

63. Cincinnati Bengals - Greg Dulchich , TE , UCLA - A seam stretcher that would find a ton of open space with their receiving corps. 

64. Denver Broncos - Roger McCreary , CB , Aubrun - Probably a slot defender but could be a really good one from the start. 

65. Jacksonville Jaguars - Alec Pierce , WR , Cincinnati - A big play threat with great body control that should give Lawrence a target to throw to.

Would be down for that. I still think Jets gotta come away with an EDGE among the top 38 picks, I am a big Ebiketie guy. A lot of comparisons to Carl Lawson in the win rate off snap and despite not racking up sacks on a basis you want to see, the pressures he was getting in his 1st year in the Big Ten is something I would bite on with one of the 2 2nd's. Even over Quay Walker.

Also think Jets really like Jalen Pitre, but think it comes down to him vs Travis Jones and I think latter should go since it's a deeper S class than DT. Both guys got rave reviews by the Jets coaches as the senior bowl.

There's a lot of wrong the Jets can do at 4, Sauce Gardner is one of the few picks I would get up and clap. Just as an EDGE can help the secondary's lives, it's vice versa too. Great CB play leads to coverage sacks. Gardner/DJ Reed/Bryce Hall/Brandin Echols is a pretty nice 1-4 outside CB tandem. 

And Garrett Wilson works at 10, not sure if Jets want a different dynamic on offense. Speed(Williams) or length(London) vs the smaller route runner that they got in E. Moore already but he's the safest WR of the bunch IMO.

The Jefferson/Jameson duo UT is eluding too would be insane.

I still doubt it happens and I doubt Jefferson stays in Minnesota his whole prime.

Minny has been linked to receivers quite a bit , I wouldn’t completely rule it out.

Thielen is probably in his last year and aside from that they are going to a majority of 3 receiver sets on offense after running the fewest 3WR sets last year. It’s a complete philosophy change.
