Final Draft Day 1 Predictions

Post by cmoss84 »

I have a feeling A LOT of changes are going to be made.

Here are my final predictions for tomorrow:

1) Browns choose between Williams and Harris....and go for Harris. We end up with a 3rd and 5th from them.
2) Redskins give in. To us. Reiff, a 3rd and a 7th.
3) TB now has Godwin/Evans/Howard/Gronk. What is the missing piece, if they choose not to go LT with #14? Cook. They put all their chips in. We also give them our 4th, making up for their pick they gave up for Gronk. We get #14.

14) Javon Kinlaw: we go for a dominate force up front. We wait on WR until a bit later.
22) Gladney: The top 4 LTs are picked through, and we decide to wait longer on WR. Best CB available-whoever Zim likes best.
25) Trade with KC. We get #32 and a 3rd. KC gets Swift.
32) Winfield: too early? Maybe, but now we have 2 top prospects to rebuild our secondary.

We have shored up our defense, added Williams, and can concentrate on WR/OL on day 2.

#3 is unrealistic, I do not think Vikings are going to trade Cook, #1 and #2 is very possible

It's fun. I wouldn't mind if all of it comes true.

Pretty fun to think about but I dont think any of those are happening.

I'm saying we trade up for Wirfs or Lamb if they were to fall, then trade down from 25 to 32 and take Gladney or Johnson. I highly, highly doubt, we are making picks at 22 and 25. We are moving up or down from 1 or both.

I really hope Vikings would trade up for Lamb, I would die if that happens! Boomer Sooner!

Somebody slides to 22, Kinlaw, Tua, Wills, Ruggs?. Always hard to say who that will be. 25 is traded back to add picks.

I think trades involving Harris, Reiff, Cook are all on the table, but unlikely to happen outside of Harris. Redskins probably want picks, not players for Williams. I have always believed the team particularly wants to move Harris and still do.

I think we could have. We didn't want to. Falcons would have gave up the pick for 22 and 58 and probably gave us back a third round pick.

Kinlaw went 14, we got Gladney, and we traded to back end of 1st...so...kind of right?

Fun night. Excited for tomorrow! Any bold predictions for day 2?
