Explanation for each pick
- *TRADE* NYJ QB Sam Darnold -- Jets willing to move up for a QB.
Browns aren't sold on any QB at the top of the board and can get one with the #4 pick. (Jets give up their #2 this year and 1st next.)Jets GM Mike Maccagnan is willing to trade up in the draft for a quarterback
- NYG Josh Rosen -- G-Men can't bypass rare opportunity to get a franchise QB. Rosen has excellent footwork and accuracy. I really like him.
- IND RB Saquon Barkley -- Wanted to give them Chubb but Barkley gets tough yards and keeps drives alive. I've come around on this pick.
- CLE QB Baker Mayfield -- If the Jets take Mayfield Darnold slides, if Darnold and Mayfield are gone then Rosen is available.
- DEN DB Minkah Fitzpatrick -- Provided Elway signs Cousins. Aqib was part of the deal for Alex Smith. I think they want to move on.
- *TRADE* CLE DE Bradley Chubb -- Tempted to put LB Tremaine Edmonds here but take blue chip pass rusher.
- TB LB Tremaine Edmonds -- Love Edmonds and think he will be a monster.
- *TRADE* ARI QB Josh Allen -- Carson Palmer retired. Dire need. Make bold move and get their guy. (ARI gives 2nd this year and 1st next)
- SF LB Roquan Smith -- Slight reach. Tempted to take the OG but go with Roquan.
- OAK CB Denzel Ward -- Ward the top corner? Ohio State trainer said he's going to test out bigger and stronger than expected.
- MIA EDGE Marcus Davenport -- Unblockable in Senior Bowl practices and in the game. Riser at pass rusher tend to rise in draft.
- CIN OT Conner Williams -- Dire need filled with top OT.
- WAS DT Da'Ron Payne -- Two Bama DTs in the middle create an interior push.
- GB OG Quenton Nelson -- The fall ends. Pack gets dominant guard.
- (trade) CHI WR Calvin Ridley -- Chicago drops and gets WR they wanted and regain the pick they gave up for Trubisky plus extras.
- BAL OT Mike McGlinchey -- Tough O-Lineman. Fills need without reaching.
- LAC DT Vita Vea -- Run stuffer who can run. Planet theory in action.
- SEA SS Derwin James -- Falls right into the lap of Seahawks.
- DAL DT Murice Hurst -- Best interior pass rusher in the draft.
- DET RB Derrius Guice -- Too obvious? Probably for real life but in this mock it fits.
- BUF OC/OG Billy Price -- Fills need and versatile.
- BUF EDGE Harold Landry -- Can play LB if needed.
- LAR CB Josh Jackson -- Best cover guy in draft but might fall if he doesn't run a sub 4.5 forty.
- CAR TE Dallas Goedert -- He looks much better than where he goes in most mock drafts.
- TEN DE Sam Hubbard -- Need more pass rush.
- ATL OG Isaiah Wynn -- Need with best player at position.
- NO WR Christian Kirk -- Great draft last year. Kirk could get them another solid player.
- PIT OT Orlando Brown -- Steeler-type of O-Lineman. Big, strong, raw and can develop into something special.
- JAX OG Will Hernandez -- Could go a number of directions. Go with 'safe' pick.
- MIN DT Harrison Phillips -- One of the best defenses gets better.
- NE CB Isaiah Oliver -- Seeking DB help after SB fiasco.
- PHI LB Rashann Evans -- Great value here.
