first round 1.0

[liquidfriend 1,151]

1.  Oakland Raiders  - Justin Herbert, QB  Oregon

The Giants done fucked up by winning a useless game and now they will pay for it by missing out on a franchise QB. 

2.  Arizona Cardinals - Nick Bosa, DE  Ohio State

The Cardinals do already have Chandler Jones, but no way in hell do they pass on Bosa.

3.  New York Giants - Ed Oliver, DT  Houston

The Giants miss out on Bosa and a QB by winning a meaningless game.  Oliver is a good prospect for them too, fortunately.

4.  New York Jets - AJ Brown, WR  Ole Miss

The Jets grab a weapon for Sam Darnold.

5.  San Francisco 49ers - Greedy Williams, CB  LSU

Gambling on Sherman has been mostly good, but they need some more help.

6.  Buffalo Bills - Greg Little, OT  Ole Miss

The Bills have no idea what the fuck they are doing and traded off a decent OT to the Bengals, so they could move up to take Josh Allen.  They had to move up for Allen because they passed on a superior QB in Pat Mahomes the prior year.  Now they have to spend a top pick to take a tackle to replace the good tackle the traded, to move up for a lesser QB.  That's why the Bills are the Bills.

7.  Cleveland Browns - Derrick Brown, DT  Auburn

Dorsey continues to add to the DL.

8.  Denver Broncos - Trevon Diggs, CB  Alabama

Trading off Talib for peanuts was a mistake for the Broncos, and now they need to spend a high 1st to fix the position.

9.  Indianapolis Colts - Devin White, LB  LSU

The Offense is starting to click for the Colts again, so priority will be on the Defense where they're still needing help.  Devin White would be a hell of an add for this squad.
10.  Detroit Lions -

11. Jacksonville Jaguars - Jeffery Simmons, DT  Miss State

The Jaguars will gamble large here to maintain its absurd DL.

12. Oakland Raiders (f/TB) - Clelin Ferrell, DE  Clemson

Gruden hopes here that he has the right guy to replace Mack.  The Buccaneers send a package of picks to the Raiders for Derek Carr, because they have absolutely nothing at QB and zero success developing their own.

13. Oakland Raiders (f/DAL) - DeAndre Baker, CB  Georgia

The Raiders have zero faith in Conley and their other corner is a FA.  Gotta go corner here.

14. Baltimore Ravens - Josh Allen, LB  Kentucky

The Ravens could use the help on Offense more, but I think Josh Allen is just too damn good to pass on.

15.  Seattle Seahawks - Rashan Gary, DL  Michigan

The Seahawks continue to rebuild its once elite Defense.

16.  Philadelphia Eagles - Damien Harris, RB  Alabama

The Eagles finally figured out why the Dolphins were eager to dump Ajayi last year, and now they need to find a RB that can handle the load and be durable.

17.  Atlanta Falcons - Dexter Lawrence, DT  Clemson

The Falcons need a lot of help on Defense.  The Browns just ripped them apart. 

18.  Green Bay Packers - Raekwon Davis, DL  Alabama

The were expecting a big boost from Wilkerson this year, but he ended up on the IR and will be a FA.  The Packers will move on with some good value here.

19.  Miami Dolphins - Drew Lock, QB  Missouri

No way are the Dolphins keeping Tannehill at a cap hit of over 25 million for 2019, so he's on the way out.  They will have to overdraft to get a replacement for him.

20.  Tennessee Titans - Montez Sweat, DE/OLB  Miss State

The Titans get younger on the edge and now have 2 young, talented edge rushers.

21.  Cincinnati Bengals - Jonah Williams, OT  Alabama

The Bengals grab a RT to keep Andy's pressure low.

22.  Minnesota Vikings - Christian Wilkins, DT  Clemson

The Vikings can't afford to give Sheldon Richardson a long term deal, so they will replace him in the draft.

23.  Washington Redskins - Jachi Polite, LB  Florida

The Redskins grab a talented Florida LB here.

24.  Houston Texans - Cody Ford, OT  Oklahoma

The Texans add to its shitty OL.

25.  Oakland Raiders (f/CHI) - Mack Wilson,  LB  Alabama

Gruden needs a guy inside that can clean up all the holes in the middle of a really bad Raiders Defense.

26.  Pittsburgh Steelers - Trayvon Mullen, CB  Clemson

Ironic that Artie's last name is Burns, because he is burnt a lot.

27.  LA Rams (f/CAR) - Tre Lamar, LB  Clemson

The Rams are banking on landing a mega haul of comp picks and will flip one here to grab someone to play inside.  They've been completely gashed inside by RB's.

28.  Los Angeles Chargers - Jerry Tillery, DT  Notre Dame

The Chargers grab a big body for it's pretty lackluster DT rotation.

29.  New England Patriots - Parris Campbell, WR  Ohio State

The Patriots have 3 WR's hitting FA next year and the reality is they probably can only afford to keep Josh Gordon since he can be RFA tagged.  They can't afford to keep Chris Hogan since Gost and Flowers are UFA's and Edelman is getting harder to count on.  I think they need to get a WR early that can turn short Brady throws into big gains.

30.  Green Bay Packers (f/NO) - Bennie Snell Jr, RB  Kentucky

Snell has been one of the 2 cogs on a Kentucky team that's pretty subpar in all actuality.  He's going to go higher than people expect, and I think he'd be a hell of a pick for the Packers here.

31. Carolina Panthers - Amani Oruwariye, CB  Penn State

The Panthers have been gashed vs the pass and gotta go corner.

32.  Kansas City Chiefs - Johnathan Abrams, S  Mississippi State

The draft board worked out in a bad way for KC, so they opt to get an insurance policy because Eric Berry can't be counted on anymore.

[Calichief 3,016]

Where do you slate the monster WR from Texas. He looks like the best player I’ve seen all year.

Somewhere in the 3rd round.  Good size and hands but honestly he doesn't look anywhere near ready for the pro's. 

For someone his size I was expecting to see a Mike Evans A&M kind of performance for 4 quarters and only saw some minor glimpses of it.  Needs to take a lot more advantage of his size mismatch.  Really should return to Texas for another season.

Thanks!

he looks like a Calvin/dez type

At this point, he looks like strictly a jump ball specialist (aka, Dez).

Yea, he really tailed off after the first time I saw him.

[liquidfriend 1,151]

1.  San Francisco 49ers - Nick Bosa, DE  Ohio State

49ers gonna go straight BPA

2.  Oakland Raiders - Quinnen Williams, DT  Alabama

Raiders do the same and have a nasty interior DL.

3.  New York Jets - Greedy Williams, CB  LSU

The Jets are not getting the play at CB they were hoping to get in 2018.  Fixing that will be a priority.

4.  Arizona Cardinals - Derrick Brown, DT  Auburn

The Cardinals hoping they finally get a replacement for Calais Campbell.

5.  Detroit Lions - Ed Oliver, DT  Houston

I'm sure Belichick wanna be fat rapeboy isn't happy with his DL.

6.  Washington Redskins (f/ATL) - Justin Herbert, QB  Oregon

(Redskins trade off their 1+2 and 2020 2nd for #6)

The Redskins know that Alex Smith is finished and boy howdy are they fucked.  They are usually aggressive with addressing the position, so I don't believe they will sit back and let the Giants get first crack at taking a QB.  They will make a power play up to get what they want.  Meanwhile, with how everything has literally just fell apart for the Falcons....they need the trade.

7.  New York Giants - Dwayne Haskins, QB  Ohio State

The Giants can't leave this draft without a QB, so they just take the next one on their board.

8.  Denver Broncos (f/BUF) - Drew Lock, QB  Missouri

(Broncos trade 18th pick and 2020 1st rounder to the Buffalo Bills for #8)

A lot of rumors are that John Elway absolutely loves Drew Lock and will do what it takes to get him in the draft.  So if he sees 2 QB's fly off the board with back to back picks, I'd guess he will absolutely make a power play to keep the Jaguars from getting him.  The Bills have a long term rebuild going on, so they will happily bank a spare 1.

9.  Jacksonville Jaguars - Jeffrey Simmons, DT  Miss State

This will be the worst case scenario for the Jacksonville Jaguars, striking out on all the top QB's.  A total nightmare, but they still need to make a selection here and  they decide to draft a replacement for Marcel Dareus.

10. Green Bay Packers - Josh Allen, LB  Kentucky

Regardless of what kind of Defense the Packers run in 2019, Allen will fit it and fill a need.

11.  Cleveland Browns -  Devin White, LB  LSU

Dorsey getting a heck of a deal here.

12. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - DeAndre Baker, CB  Georgia

The Buccaneers have been torched a whole fucking lot this season.

13.  Cincinnati Bengals - Jawaan Taylor, OT  Florida

The Bengals struggled to protect the ginger and now he's ded on IR. 

14.  Miami Dolphins - Greg Little, OT  Ole Miss

Dolphins need help allover

15.  Indianapolis Colts - AJ Brown, WR  Ole Miss

You can be sure that Chris Ballard is watching Andy Reid's offense and plans to copy it.  The OL seems to mostly be where the Colts want it, so look for them to grab another weapon to run a wide open Offense.

16.  Atlanta Falcons (f/WAS) - Zach Allen, DL  Boston College

The Falcons need to address a lot of key spots.

17.  Carolina Panthers - Deionte Thompson, S  Alabama

The Panthers really struggle with the secondary.

18.  Tennessee Titans - Jonah Williams, OT  Alabama

The Titans probably need to address the uncomfortable reality that Jack Conklin needs to move inside.

19.  Los Angeles Chargers (f/DEN,BUF) - Dexter Lawrence, DT  Clemson

(Chargers trade 1+2 to the Buffalo Bills for 1+4)

The Chargers get antsy thinking the Chiefs will leap ahead for him and decide to move up to shore their interior, while the Bills are dire to move down.

20.  Philadelphia Eagles - N'Keal Harry, WR  Arizona State

The Eagles took a rental on Golden Tate and realized they didn't know what the fuck to do with him.  lol

21.  Minnesota Vikings - Cody Ford, OL  Oklahoma

The Vikings give mega money to Kirk Cousins than told him to play behind a bad line.  oops

22. Oakland Raiders - Clelin Ferrell, DE  Clemson

Gruden is going to get more sacks.

23.  Baltimore Ravens - Trevon Diggs, CB  Alabama

The Ravens needs to upgrade from Carr and Smith.

24.  Pittsburgh Steelers - Albert Okwuegbunan, TE  Missouri

The Steelers give a new toy to Ben.

25.  Seattle Seahawks - Rashan Gary, DL  Michigan

The Seahawks are getting a steal here.

26.  Oakland Raiders - Chris Lindstrom, G  Boston College

Osemele has had a really bad year for the Oakland Raiders and I think they will look to cut bait with him in the Spring.  Biggest cap hit on the roster after Carr and 0 dead money makes him a dead man walking to an owner pinching pennies currently.

27.  Houston Texans - Dalton Risner, OT  Kansas State

The Texans need to get better on the edges.

28.  Buffalo Bills - Marquise Brown, WR  Oklahoma

The Bills tab a speedy WR that can run fast enough to catch bombs from Josh Allen.

29.  New England Patriots - Irv Smith Jr, TE  Alabama

Gronk is pretty much toast physically and Brady suffers a lot when he's out.  The Patriots are going to start preparing for life without Gronk.

30.  Green Bay Packers - Christian Wilkins, DT  Clemson

The Packers will be seeking to add to it's DL.

31.  Kansas City Chiefs - Parris Campbell, WR  Ohio State

You could make a case for starting off with something you know that works, which is the Offense.  Tyreek Hill, Sammy Watkins, Travis Kelce, Parris Campbell and De'Anthony Thomas in a 5 wide formation would be the most ridiculous thing in football.  Good fucking luck defending that if you can't hit Pat in under 2 seconds.

32.  Los Angeles Rams - Mack Wilson, LB  Alabama

The Rams are super soft in the middle.

[liquidfriend 1,151]

Now that we know the slots for most of the teams...

1.  Arizona Cardinals - Nick Bosa, DL  Ohio State

Congrats the the Cardinals for sucking ass!  I think it'll be a tough decision between Williams and Bosa, but I think Bosa will be the pick.  Bosa and Chandler Jones on the edges will be a real nightmare for the rest of the West.

2.  New York Giants (f/SF) - Dwayne Haskins, QB  Ohio State

The Giants passed on a QB in 2018 and while Barkley had some spectacular performances, they were a shitty team.  They can't repeat that mistake, and need to make a power move upward to lock in the top QB in the draft.  The 49ers need quantity to shore up the random holes on the roster, so they will gladly take a haul.  

The Giants give up 2019 1st & 2nd, 2020 1st for #2

3.  New York Jets - Quinnen Williams, DT  Alabama

The Jets are rather shitty on the entire front 7 outside of Leonard Williams, so I think they need to go BPA in that area.

4.  London? Raiders - Clelin Ferrell, DE  Clemson

The whatever the fuck Raiders were the league worst at rushing the passer in 2018, so time to make up for the fact they traded away an elite edge rusher. 

5.  Denver Broncos (f/TB) - Drew Lock, QB  Missouri

The Denver Broncos know that Casey Kasem isn't the QB and they gotta do something.  Horseface is known to be in love with Lock, so I anticipate the Broncos will move up as they are aggressive typically, when it comes to QB's.

The Buccaneers have a trainwreck Defense and could direly use an extra high 2nd+3rd to patch it up. 

6. San Francisco 49ers (f/NYG) - Derrick Brown, DT  Auburn

The 49ers are super weak at the DT position next to Bucker.  Now they're stout at DT. 

7.  Jacksonville Jaguars - Daniel Jones, QB  Duke

Not coming away with a QB is not an option for the Jaguars.  Neither is a high priced FA QB.

8.  Detroit Lions - Josh Allen, DE/OLB  Kentucky

The Lions need somebody that can crash some shit and make some plays for them up front, and I think Josh Allen is one of the best at it in this league.

9.  Buffalo Bills - Ed Oliver, DT  Houston

Kyle Williams retiring basically locks them into a DT here.

10.  Tampa Bay Buccaneers (f/DEN) - Devin White, LB  LSU

The Bucs are really bad at LB.

11.  Cincinnati Bengals - Jawaan Taylor, OT  Florida

The Bengals spent a lot on the Offensive Line last year, but couldn't rebuild the entire line and had to rely on jags to man the right side.  It showed.  Taylor will slide right in to Right Tackle and be a Day 1 starter.

12.  Green Bay Packers - Rashan Gary, DL  Michigan

The Packers need to fill the hole at DE.

13.  Miami Dolphins - Greedy Williams, CB  LSU

The Dolphins are iffy at CB with the uncertainty of Howard and the fact they've got nothing else.

14.  Atlanta Falcons - Christian Wilkins, DT  Clemson

The Falcons need to fix that Defense and fast.

15.  Washington Redskins - A.J. Brown, WR  Ole Miss

The Redskins will have to wait for the next day to get a QB, but will use this pick to give that QB a target.

16.  Carolina Panthers - Trevon Diggs, CB  Alabama

The Panthers have struggled a lot to protect a lead, and lack of talent in the secondary is a large reason why.

17.  Cleveland Browns - Greg Little, OT  Ole Miss

The Browns have a Franchise QB, now they need to get a guy to protect his blindside.

18.  Minnesota Vikings - Jonah Williams, OT  Alabama

The Vikings made a giant investment in mental midget Kirk Cousins, and didn't get him any help for protection.  Idiots.

19.  Tennessee Titans - Cody Ford, OL  Oklahoma

The Titans have struggled to keep Mariota healthy and either need to improve the line or start QB shopping. 

20.  Pittsburgh Steelers - Mack Wilson, LB  Alabama

The Steelers shore up the inside of its Defense further.

21.  Philadelphia Eagles - Byron Murphy. CB  Washington

CB is a dire need in Philly

22.  Indianapolis Colts - Raekwon Davis, DL  Alabama

The Colts add more talent up front.

23.  Seattle Seahawks - Jeffrey Simmons, DT  Miss State

The Seahawks gamble with a piece on the DL

24.  Baltimore Ravens - Jachai Polite, Edge  Florida

The Ravens need to inject some youth into the edge.

25.  Oakland Raiders - Damien Harris, RB  Alabama

Gruden wants a feature back for his Offense with Lynch gone and muscle hamster not amounting to a lot.  The Raiders opt to go RB here to block the Texans.

26.  Washington Redskins (f/HOU) - Will Grier, QB  West Virginia

The Redskins fend off the Patriots and leap infront of the Raiders next first to secure a QB. 

The Redskins send their 2nd, 3rd and 2020 2nd to Houston for #26. 

27.  Oakland Raiders - Chris Lindstrom, G  Boston College

Osemele has been a dud in 2018 and will absolutely be cut in 2019.  The Raiders opt to go younger and cheaper at LG.

28.  Los Diego Chargers - Dexter Lawrence, DT  Clemson

The Chargers have been rather leaky against the run and will look to start clogging that up with this choice.

29.  New England Patriots - Zach Allen, DE  Boston College

Clayborn was a bust of a FA signing, so look for Bill to shop for another oversized DE to play in his flex system.

30.  Los Angeles Rams - Jerry Tillery, DL  Notre Dame

The Rams don't pick again till the end of Friday, so this pick will certainly be a reach.  Tillery here would help fill the hole that Suh will create.

31.  Kansas City Chiefs - Amani Oruwariye, CB  Penn State

The Chiefs draft so late that they pretty much have no choice but to reach.  Oruwariye should be borderline 1st when he times out in Indy and the Chiefs are dire for a corner.

32.  Green Bay Packers - Parris Campbell, WR  Ohio State

Aaron is desperate for weapons.
