— The
Redskins will take
Charles Harris is he’s available at No. 17 ... if they stick to their draft board. If he’s gone (as they expect),
Jabrill Peppers and
Dalvin Cook are both highly ranked and could be the options. I landed on
Derek Barnett in my final mock draft, a player that have graded very similarly, fits their prototype at the position and can fill the starting spot Trent Murphy vacates for the first four games this year (before replacing him fully).
— Teams that want to move up in the top 10 want to do so for
Christian McCaffrey.
Cam Robinson feels like the near unanimous top offensive tackle in the draft. His range goes from fourth overall to the
Jaguars to a team like the
Giants or
Texans moving up above the Bucs at No. 19 to get him. That said, if he’s not taken by the
Bengals at No. 9, most expect him to go to the
Ravens at No. 16.
— From asking around the last 48 hours, I’d be very surprised if any team spent a first-rounder on
Gareon Conley, but almost everyone I spoke with believes he’ll be picked on Friday. The
Cowboys,
Eagles, and
Packers are his most likely destinations.
— The
Buccaneers have been looking to trade out because they know
Dalvin Cook has no suitors between No. 19 and No. 28. The
Packers at No. 29 may be in play if he’s there. Cook also has interest from the
Eagles, and he’s the No. 1-rated running back for the
Redskins. If the Bucs do trade down, the
Giants want to insure themselves of a top three offensive tackle, and the
Seahawks want to go offensive line in Round 1. The
Broncos almost surely will go offensive line at No. 20 unless none of the top four are there.
— The
Seahawks want to go offensive line, and
Garett Bolles or
Forrest Lamp is their target. If they can’t get a top offensive lineman, pass rusher may be their ideal position. They want to add a top-end defensive end in Round 1. They’re also a darkhorse option for a safety, and
Obi Melifonwu/Marcus Maye could be their options at the position.
— Multiple teams picking in the backend of Round 1 believe
Reuben Foster will be on the board for them. The
Chiefs,
Packers or
Saints could stop his fall, which would be more related to his injury history than his character concerns.
—
Jonathan Allen’s range is No. 7 (
Chargers) to No. 12 (
Saints), with every team besides the Panthers and Bills ready to consider him. The
Chargers are in play, but the
Bengals are the team most often mocked for Allen around the league.
