Some picks I didn’t like 1. Mitch Morse – OL Kansas City. There are players I just couldn’t get enough film on to give them an adequate draft grade, and that’s why they aren’t on my board. However, those guys are clearly draftable players like Eric Rowe or Tyler Kroft. Mitch Morse I had plenty of film on and still didn’t give him a grade. He went in the second round. Not a good selection. 2. Jake Fisher – OT Cincinnati. It’s not that I don’t like the player, he’s a good player. However, now the team has four tackles on the team and still they don’t have anyone who can rush the passer. I don’t get that. I understand some teams go with the best player available mantra, but you can’t have four tackles on your roster and have your top two picks sit and watch. 3. Rob Havenstein – RT St Louis. I love that they wanted to go get a right tackle, I just wouldn’t have gotten one who can bend his knees. I think Havenstein was a fifth round grade and   the Rams took him at the end of

10 picks I loved 1. Randy Gregory, OLB Dallas             - I understand the kid has off the field issues galore. But the kid is arguably the best pure pass rusher in this draft class. Dallas was in desperate need of help off the edge and the kid could be a double digit sack guy in the league, and those guys don’t fall off trees. With the 60 th pick, the risk was more than worth the selection.  2. Jaelen Strong, WR Houston – I would have pulled the trigger on Strong at 16 th overall. The kid was the fourth wide receiver on my board and to get him with the 70 th pick in the draft was the epitome of a draft steal. He could get you 80 catches per season out of the third round. 3. Landon Collins, SS New York Giants – He was clearly the best player left on the board to begin day 2 and the Giants made the move to make it happen. The guy is going to be a really good player in the league, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he ended up making 100 tackles a season. High floor pick.

Good picks, good value, filled a need: Amari Cooper – Oakland (4) Danny Shelton – Cleveland (12) Marcus Mariota – Tennessee (2) Devante Parker – Miami (14) Vic Beasley – Atlanta (8) Kevin White – Chicago (7) Malcolm Brown – New England (32) Melvin Gordon – San Diego (15) Jameis Winston – Tampa Bay (1) Trae Waynes – Minnesota (11) Solid picks, decent value, made sense Byron Jones – Dallas Kevin Johnson – Houston Ereck Flowers – New York Giants Breshad Perriman – Baltimore Bud Dupree – Pittsburgh Todd Gurley – St. Louis Andrus Peat – New Orleans Brandon Scherff - Washington I get it, didn’t love it, but not bad Dante Fowler Jr – Jacksonville Arik Armstead – San Francisco Leonard Williams – New York Jets D.J. Humphries – Arizona Marcus Peters – Kansas City I don’t get it, bad fit schematically, or a reach Laken Tomlinson – Detroit Cameron Erving – Cleveland Shane Ray – Denver Shaq Thomp
