Favorite selections of Round 1
McDonald: Mason Graham, DT, Cleveland Browns
Loved precisely how the Browns traded down, obtained added draft assets from Jacksonville, and handled an genuine lineup requirement. There’s an incredible deal to reminiscent of regarding the match together with Myles Garrett and Graham can deliver substantial go thrill functionality.
Harmon: Armand Membou, OT, New York Jets
There’s issue to be excessive up on Membou’s hostile play and tone-setting design. He might be an ending up merchandise for a Jets offending line that’s remained in restoring setting. There’s capability for Membou and Olu Fashanu to be vibrant, younger bookends and methods to a run-first Jets identification.
Tice: Mykel Williams, EDGE, San Francisco 49ers
The pairing of Williams with Nick Bosa was wonderful– Bosa because the talent rush, Williams bringing energy and run safety. It’s an ideal selection for the Niners’ protecting calls for and design.
Least favored selections of Round 1
Tice: Jaxson Dart, QB, New York Giants
None of the QBs on this draft course other than Cam Ward have been first-round product. The Giants stay in “win now or develop” limbo– caught to professionals and at present asking Dart to enter a suspicious state of affairs behind an unstable line.
McDonald: Omarion Hampton, RB, Los Angeles Chargers
Hampton is a superb gamer, but there’s issue to look at the price under for the Chargers, that also have blazing calls for, notably on the indoor offending line. The Chargers aren’t satisfactory to validate making use of a prices tease a working again and the step doesn’t make their crime materially a lot better.
Harmon: Tyler Warren, TE, Indianapolis Colts
A primary-round TE is a deluxe selection for a bunch that requires in different places and a suspicious QB state of affairs. Warren isn’t a right away improve supplied the Colts’ receivers weren’t being made greatest use of anyhow, and his skills overlap with what the Colts at present carry the lineup.
