Depends on whether you are drafting for need or BPA...

The QBs should not be where they are in your re-draft based on the talent in this draft. Evans and Beckham have been absolute studs and the QBs have been middling, at best. There is no Luck in this draft, and it's hard to forecast any of those QBs into that type of career at this point.

Watkins still looks like a long-term stud and I haven't heard enough complaints about the top OL to justify moving them downward. I also don't think Clowney is a top 20 pick at this point, given his injury history and recent microfracture.

If anything, it's hard to argue that the top four players in this draft aren't the 3 WRs (Evans, Beckham and Watkins) and Aaron Donald. They all look like they are going to be, at worst, long-term starters at their positions. The OL aren't elite at this point, but clearly should last out. Hard to project CBs yet, but Fuller looks the part. Mack and Mosley look like long-term starters at LB and Shazier did too before he was injured.
 
Well if you knew that Clowney had the knee issues he does then it's doubtful he's a 1st rounder at all.

The QB's should absolutely be where they're at when you look at the QB situation that those teams are in. But I'll agree there are a lot of non-QB's that are the "better player available".

I think all three of Watkins/Evans/Beckham are studs. But I think they should have been drafted in the order above, given the teams that should have taken them.

Even in a draft as fantastic as this one, I don't see how Beckham drops to 5. He's been hands down the best player in the draft. You could make a real argument he's tilting the field in the same way guys like Rodgers, Watt and Brady do. He's the #1 pick in a do over.

I fully understand the value teams place on QBs. I just don't think they'd be able to take any of those three QBs after watching their film and Beckhams'. I'm not positive any of them are going to even be NFL starters in a few years. They are all maybe's at this point.

Nice job with your list though.

 
Bridgewater's the real deal. The other two have shown enough that, given the importance of the position, they're still going to be drafted high.

I agree that Beckham is a monster. If you want to say he should have gone #2 to the Rams, I won't fight that.

I don't see a world where Mack and Donald drop further in a re-do than they did in the original.

ETA: or Z. Martin's prospects don't improve.

Agree that OBJ goes first overall based on what we've seen. I don't see a QB in the top 10 and Martin has quickly become one of the top guards in the league, no way he still falls to 16.

Mack was a fine pick for the Raiders. They would have been much better off with Beckham. They probably would have been better off with Mosley.

Both Mosley and Fuller play at positions more premium than DT, so as good as Donald looks, if they jump above him it by necessity bumps him down.

But he's just a guard.
