First four rounds if I was picking again for the Chiefs would go like this.

Winfrey
Lloyd

Pickens
Sanders
Jones

Based on how the board dell

Relative to their available picks, I think those are both A+ drafts.

Browns

1.13: Garrett Wilson, WR, Ohio State
2.44: Arnold Ebiketie, EDGE, Penn State
3.78: Quay Walker, ILB, Georgia
3.99: Bryan Cook, S, Cincinnati
4.107: Zachary Carter, DT/EDGE, Florida
4.118: Joshua Williams, CB, Fayetteville State
6.202: Neil Farrell Jr., NT, LSU
7.224: Dawson Deaton, IOL, Texas Tech University
7.247: Lecitus Smith, OG, Virginia Tech

Pretty happy with how this turned out, but the Watson trade half way through our draft obviously impacts the Browns draft capital (and what they can do and will do on draft day). The players all are good scheme fits and I think great value at the position I was able to select them.

Steelers

1.20: Tyler Linderbaum, OC, Iowa
2.52: Matt Corral, QB, Mississippi
3.84: Martin Emerson, CB, Mississippi State
4.138: Erik Ezukanma, WR, Texas Tech
6.208: Leon O’Neal Jr., S, Texas A&M
7.226: Kellen Diesch, OT, Arizona State
7.242: Eric Johnson, DT, Missouri State

Honestly not in love with how this turned out for the Steelers. I talked myself out of Penning and Cross in the first based on popular consensus at the time, since then and their pro days, both have vaulted up the boards. Linderbaum very well could be their pick, but I think OT or stud defender is more likely. I also told myself I wasn’t going to draft a QB going into the draft, but couldn’t resist Coral falling to 52. Taking a QB early then pushed all my other needs a round later where I was always a few picks too late to get the guys I really wanted. If I had a do-over Eric Johnson may be the only one I’d keep.

According to Dane Brugler, the best UDFA’s available (I claim them all!):

RB, Tyrion Davis-price, LSU - 5th round projection
OT, Veridian Lowe, Illinois - 5th to 6th
OG, Justin Shaffer, Georgia - 4th to 5th
OG, Logan Bruss, Wisconsin - 4th to 5th
OG, Thayer Mumford, Ohio State - 4th to 5th
OC, Ben Brown, Ole Miss - 4th to 5th
LB, Mike Rose, Iowa State - 4th to 5th
LB, Jeremiah Gemmel, North Carolina - 5th to 6th
CB, Kalon Barnes, Baylor - 4th to 5th
CB, Demarion Williams, Houston - 5th
CB, Bryce Watts, UMass - 5th to 6th
S, Percy Butler, Louisiana - 5th
S, Juanyeh Thomas, Georgia Tech - 5th to 6th

Yeah, I think Cross is going to be a major riser. I was definitely late to the party on him.

And with Coral, I'm pretty sure I had him queued up for the Bucs if he got past you. And ultimately he may be a gainer for you anyway if the Seahawks or Lions are fans of his.

Some team is gonna fall in love with that damn 'gamer' tag he has and take him earlier than I would. Happens every season.

I'm curious to see what Quay Walker does. I think off-ball backers are going to slide in this draft. Too much emphasis on WR in the off-season and a TON of depth. Watching the market just die for Kyzir White this off-season tells me that teams aren't hard up for backers.

But Walker is an intriguing option and a heck of a talent.

29. David Ojabo- Edge
30. Jalen Pitre- CB
Trade 50 for 52, 138, 208 with Pittsburgh
Trade 52 for 72, 109,152,153 and 2024 round 4 with Seattle
62. Jalen Tolbert WR
72. Kerby Joseph - S
94. Kellen Diesch-T
Trade 103 for 104, 218 and 253 with Rams
104. Jo Jo Dooman - LB

Should be able to get 6-8 picks in the 4-6 rounds as well.

Graded an A, but probably have too many picks.

25. Buffalo Bills - Titty Meat - George Karlaftis, EDGE, Purdue

57. Buffalo Bills - Titty Meat - Phidarian Mathis, DT, Alabama

89. Buffalo Bills - Titty Meat - Cam Taylor-Britt, CB, Nebraska

130. Buffalo Bills - Titty Meat - Rachaad White, RB, Arizona State
168. Buffalo Bills - Titty Meat - Yusuf Corker, S, Kentucky

185. Buffalo Bills - Titty Meat - Matt Araiza, P, San Diego State

203. Buffalo Bills - Titty Meat - Big Kat Bryant, EDGE, Central Florida
232. Buffalo Bills - Titty Meat - Dallis Flowers, CB, Pittsburgh State


Missed out on upgrading the interior and probably should have grabbed a WR too. Spooky season for the Bills #1 defense last year with White coming back & Von Miller. That defense is deep and talented. Would totally be cool if this was the Chiefs draft.

That Bills D is going to be scary good if they can stay healthy.

I like this/your draft overall. I think it would be a win for them.

I do wonder if they would go Edge in the first round though even in a clear BPA situation. Last year they took Gregory Rousseau in the 1st and Carlos Basham in the 2nd, and the previous year they took AJ Epenesa with their first pick which was in the 2nd. They’ve invested their last 3 top picks in Edges and it seems like a lot to do that for a 3rd year in a row. My understanding is that they think all 3 are primed to break out and are “hits.” This coupled with Shaq Lawson allowed them to move on from some of their other DEs this off season. All that said, they do really like to rotate their DL to keep everyone healthy and having talent there to avoid the drop off. George Karlaftis certainly would be a big boost to their ability to do that.

Yeah I drafted him before they signed Miller too. The value at that pick was just too much to turn down. The way I approached this draft was BPA. I feel the board kind of obsessed over WR's and at times I was able to benefit from that.
