Kiper McShay draft podcast link
In the penultimate edition they cover these topics amongst others:
Teams that were mentioned who they feel could trade either up or down:
Vikings
Miami
Cleveland
Jacksonville
NY Jets
Philly
Baltimore
New England
Kiper asked McShay the percent he felt that these guys had to be taken in the first round? Go to the podcast for the them all but here are a few that were mentioned with the percentage that McShay feels will be selected in the first round.
TE Coby Fleener 35-40%
QB Brandon Weeden 60%
RB Doug Martin 60%
LB Shane McCLallon 100%
They discussed the Vikings pick and don’t think Kalil is a lock but couldn’t figure out who they would take if they pass on him.
Had questions and went into some depth on these two playes:
DE/OLB Chandler Jones might go in the first round. Long arms and NFL bloodlines.
DT Mike Martin Michegan. Mel likes him. 36 reps at combine, excellent upper body strength. Practiced against a top offensive lineman in college. Mel mentioned something interesting. He said that college Dts play a ton of plays but NFL Dts rotate so they don’t have to play as many plays per game. Should be a 3rd round pick.
