This is so obvious a smokescreen to try and get trade calls for the #4 pick.
I do think the Giants are taking an OT as opposed to Simmons like some think.

Biggest story of the draft for me is where Hurts lands and whether he gets a chance to play or never step foot on the field

Looking like the falcons are trying to make desperate moves trying not to get left behind in their division. I don't think it's the right move but I get it

Herbert is gonna be the 2nd best QB from the draft. He's the better version of Josh Allen
For those that saw a lot of them Is Chase Young clearly a better DE prospect than Myles Garrett was coming out of college?
Controversy

I think Myles Garrett had more physical tools coming out of school but Chase Young was the more disruptive DE
Yep got Burrow, Herbert, Love, Hurts, Eason, then Tua.

1. Burrow and a 2 way tie with Tua and Love
I’m not all the way there on Love tho cuz he struggled a lot this year, Tua you can’t deny what you watching he has a gifted arm. They both do

what don’t you like about Higgins? Or are you saying it like he isn’t a good fit for the system?

1. Chase Young, DE, Ohio State
HT: 6-foot-4 | WT: 264 | Highlights
Young is one of the most pro-ready edge rushers I've studied in the past decade, and he should be a force from Day 1 in the NFL.
Stat to know: Young led the FBS in sacks (16.5) and forced fumbles (six) last season.
2. Joe Burrow, QB, LSU
HT: 6-foot-3 | WT: 221 | Highlights
The Heisman Trophy winner is the favorite to be drafted No. 1 overall. His rise from late-round prospect before the season to the top pick has been an amazing story.
Stat to know: In 2019, Burrow set FBS single-season records in passing touchdowns (60) and total touchdowns (65).
3. Jeff Okudah, CB, Ohio State
HT: 6-foot-1 | WT: 205 | Highlights
Okudah is a shutdown corner with explosive traits. What's not to like?
Stat to know: Opposing quarterbacks had a 14.2 QBR when Okudah was the primary defender in coverage last season, which was the best in the Big Ten.
4. Isaiah Simmons, OLB, Clemson
HT: 6-foot-3 | WT: 238 | Highlights
It's rare to see this type of size and athleticism, and some teams think he could play safety.
Stat to know: Simmons played 120-plus snaps at inside linebacker, outside linebacker, slot cornerback and safety last season, and he even lined up at perimeter cornerback on 17 snaps.
5. Tua Tagovailoa, QB, Alabama
HT: 6-foot-0 | WT: 217 | Highlights
I have said Tagovailoa is a wild card in this draft because of his injury history, and that's still the case. Turn on the tape and he's phenomenal, though, a super-accurate passer with everything NFL teams look for from their long-term starting quarterback.
Stat to know: Tagovailoa is Alabama's career leader in passing touchdowns (87) and completion percentage (69.3%).
6. Derrick Brown, DT, Auburn
HT: 6-foot-4 | WT: 326 | Highlights
Brown is not just a run plugger -- he has some pass-rushing upside, too.
Stat to know: Brown had 35 tackles at or behind the line of scrimmage from 2018 to '19, the fourth-most in FBS among players lined up at defensive tackle.
7. Jedrick Wills Jr., OT, Alabama
HT: 6-foot-3 | WT: 312 | Highlights
There are a few teams that have Wills, who played right tackle at Alabama, as the top tackle in this class.
Stat to know: Alabama averaged 7.7 yards per rush outside the right tackle in 2019, which I ranked third in the FBS.
8. Jerry Jeudy, WR, Alabama
HT: 6-foot-1 | WT: 192 | Highlights
There's a chance that receivers get shut out in the top 10 picks, but this is one of the deepest wideout groups I've ever seen. Jeudy is at the top.
Stat to know: Jeudy had 44 receptions of at least 20 yards over the past two seasons, the second-most in FBS.
9. Justin Herbert, QB, Oregon
HT: 6-foot-6 | WT: 236 | Highlights
Herbert has some maddening tape because he flashes moments of brilliance with inconsistency. But the tools are there to be a high-level starter.
Stat to know: Herbert had 15 touchdowns and no interceptions on go routes last season, the second-best TD-INT ratio in the FBS.
10. Tristan Wirfs, OT, Iowa
HT: 6-foot-4 | WT: 320 | Highlights
Wirfs is tremendous in the run game, one of the most powerful prospects in this class. His 4.85 40-yard dash at the combine was the fastest time by a 320-plus-pound player since at least 2006.
Stat to know: Of Wirfs' 33 starts at Iowa, 29 came at right tackle.
HT: 6-foot-4 | WT: 264 | Highlights
Young is one of the most pro-ready edge rushers I've studied in the past decade, and he should be a force from Day 1 in the NFL.
Stat to know: Young led the FBS in sacks (16.5) and forced fumbles (six) last season.

11. Javon Kinlaw, DT, South Carolina
HT: 6-foot-5 | WT: 324 | Highlights
Kinlaw has a massive frame and some untapped potential as a pass-rusher. He could go as high as No. 7 to Carolina.
Stat to know: Kinlaw had 9.5 sacks when lined up at defensive tackle from 2018-19, the fifth-most in the FBS.
12. CeeDee Lamb, WR, Oklahoma
HT: 6-foot-1 | WT: 193 | Highlights
Lamb is a yards-after-catch force who runs great routes. He's right there with Jeudy on my board.
Stat to know: Lamb forced 31 missed tackles last season, the most by any FBS wide receiver.
13. CJ Henderson, CB, Florida
HT: 6-foot | WT: 204 | Highlights
Henderson has been rising over the past month, even after an inconsistent 2019 season. He's the clear No. 2 corner in this class.
Stat to know: Henderson had no interceptions last season after picking off six passes in his first two seasons at Florida.
14. Andrew Thomas, OT, Georgia
HT: 6-foot-5 | WT: 315 | Highlights
A three-year starter for the Bulldogs, Thomas excelled as the left tackle the past two seasons, showing off strong hands and great technique.
Stat to know: Running back D'Andre Swiftaveraged 8.2 yards per rush last season when running outside the left tackle, which was Thomas' spot.
15. Xavier McKinney, S, Alabama
HT: 6-foot | WT: 201 | Highlights
McKinney is a complete safety who is comfortable playing as a center fielder or lining up in the box.
Stat to know: McKinney was one of four FBS players last season to have 100-plus snaps at outside linebacker, inside linebacker, cornerback and safety.
16. Justin Jefferson, WR, LSU
HT: 6-foot-1 | WT: 202 | Highlights
Jefferson has been rising since the combine, where he ran a surprising 4.43 40-yard dash. He's the best slot receiver in this class.
Stat to know: Jefferson averaged just 8.9 air yards per target last season, with 63 of his 111 receptions coming on passes thrown 5 yards or fewer downfield.
17. K'Lavon Chaisson, OLB, LSU
HT: 6-foot-3 | WT: 254 | Highlights
Chaisson had just 9.5 sacks in his college career, but he has elite athletic traits, and he ended his season with five sacks in the final four games.
Stat to know: Chaisson had 60 tackles, including 13.5 for a loss, 6.5 sacks and a forced fumble last season.
18. Kenneth Murray, ILB, Oklahoma
HT: 6-foot-2 | WT: 241 | Highlights
Murray, who started 42 straight games over three years at OU, flies to the football and is a great blitzer.
Stat to know: Murray started all 42 games of his three-year career at Oklahoma, amassing 335 tackles, 37 tackles for loss and 9.5 sacks.
19. Mekhi Becton, OT, Louisville
HT: 6-foot-7 | WT: 364 | Highlights
I said two weeks ago that Becton is my favorite prospect in this class; he makes playing offensive tackle look fun.
Stat to know: After running a 5.11 40-yard dash at the combine, Becton became the heaviest player to run a sub 5.2 in the 40 at the combine since 2006.
20. Henry Ruggs III, WR, Alabama
HT: 5-foot-11 | WT: 188 | Highlights
Ruggs is a blazer -- he ran a 4.27 40 at the combine -- who is underrated as far as his technique and route running. Don't be shocked if he is the first wide receiver off the board.
Stat to know: Thirteen of Ruggs' 40 receptions in 2019 came behind the line of scrimmage, but he still averaged 18.6 yards per catch.
