2027 NFL Mock Draft with TRADES | Day Two | Texans REVAMP their offense

Today we finished our three round 2027 NFL mock draft with trades. If you guys are new, feel free to like, comment and subscribe, but we're going to be reviewing the first round, but it's a lot better if you guys end up watching it over on the original video, because we're just gonna be discussing the trades and how it got to here and some of the hiccups within the first couple hours of watching this that I want to discuss. And maybe you guys are right. And honestly, a lot of times you guys are, but let's get into this. If you guys are new, feel free to like, comment, subscribe again. I don't know why you're watching rounds two and three before you watch round one, but, um, we're using the NFL mock draft database, mock draft simulator this time, just for a little bit of a, to be able to have the current standings. All the other simulators don't have that right now. So no thought might as well be fun, but regardless, um, for trades we had at number four, the giant or the jets and the chargers end up swapping. And I tried to do some elaborate trade. Um, the simulator didn't like what I was trying to do, but we ended up getting it basically for a third round pick and the jets jumped the dolphins for their quarterback of the future in arch Manning. Uh, the chargers get back into realistic range to go after a player that really help them in will Eccles then not many trades happened. And, um, I haven't heard any feedback on this one so far. Again, it's been like what, two hours since I ended up dropping the video, but you know, interestingly large trade up for Jaden ball. I think he is on the level, if not better than Gentee. And he's just been dominating even versus high tier talents. And he is, has, he's on like a good enough offense to where we're seeing like NFL versus NFL kind of talent versus Gentee was kind of carving up on mountain West dudes. And it was very limited, uh, top tier on top tier production for him. So we get to have a little bit of a clearer picture. The Ravens, I think are going to absolutely love a back like Jaden ball, uh, especially as Derek Henry gets older and older, we continue on and want to do some trades in here and just couldn't. Um, some people were talking about, Hey, Cam Coleman, Eagle Sony, another first round receiver. I completely agree. However, it just got to such an egregious point that I just went BPA. I remember when the Cowboys, I think drafted CD lamb. I'm pretty sure they were in like a certain situation. They just extended one of the wide receivers. They were just in a very non wide receiver needy position. And that's exactly when you pulled the trigger on somebody that's that good. So, um, you know, Kate Peeper still is available. I could get really aggressive with the Eagles. Honestly, we'll see, um, drew master maker, not part of this class. I know some people are going to be skipping that part of the video, but it is what it is. The bears spoiled my pick of the week and I owe it to y'all and I'm out for revenge. At the same time, the New York jets are coming to town and I think they are prime set for an upset. They've been extremely competitive and the bears, I don't think are going to be consistent week to week. If we check it out over on call sheet, the jets only have a 38% chance to win the game. According to the current peer to peer markets, if you end up putting $25 down, which if you end up using the code HMS when signing up or make it easy, click that link in the description, you'll end up getting not only the $25 back added to your account instantly, but I talked to my guys over on call sheet. They boosted the offer up to $55 added to your account instantly for making a $25 trade. So worst case scenario, if the jets end up losing this, you will still end up netting 30 positive. It takes out all the risk and provides even some extra incentive. But on top of that, if the jets pull this off, you'll end up getting $63 and 5 cents and 55 math boring, but that's almost $110 just for signing up and making this $25 trade, which again, at the very, very minimum, you're getting $30 positive. So I think this is a great opportunity call. She is peer to peer marketing. It is not going to end up being based on sports book, like a traditional sports house. So I think this is going to be something that will fluctuate and rebound because people are very, very high on I don't think that's actually the opinion when everything settles and people realize that what comes up also ends up coming down. So make sure to take advantage of this return before people change their minds. Use the code HMS when signing up to make sure you get your $55 back when trading 25. We did have the jets via that trade back with the Ravens go after Tate Johnson. I'm actually really happy with how that ended up turning out for them. Looking for any other trades the Cardinals got ballsy. They went tackle first and made a very large trade up with the bills to go after Darian Menza. So Darian Menza pairs up with his former offensive tackle. So that'd be really cool to see Okunola Demenza back again. The chargers ended up trading up with the Niners so they can jump the chiefs for Reed Harris. There was a contention here. If the, I will say this, I didn't really treat the Vikings pick the same way as I did kind of the Atlanta Falcons pick, where with the Falcons selection, where I ended up going after Melvin Siani, it was still like, oh, well, you know, if they end up at pick number 11, this is the opinion. If the Vikings have a 31, yeah, they'll probably not do a Sam Darnold thing again. But at the same time, maybe they strike while the iron's hot. They end up getting Dante Moore and have like a three year extension on Kyler Murray and then pretty much pull what the Packers have been doing consistently. And then the Dolphins end up trading up with the chiefs to end up getting their quarterback of the future. So the Dolphins end up getting a really, really good return on investment there. But number 33, we got all the picks to do today. But Tampa Bay first pick Leonard Moore. Very happy with that. Again, Drew Bestmaker, not part of this class. And let me know again. It's too early for me to say, but, you know, might end up tossing in a twenty twenty eight mock draft, considering like dropping in Drew Bestmaker into that equation. And then why do I keep wanting to call him Ryan Wingo? It's not Ryan Wingo. There's why it young toss him into the mix as well. So let me know what you guys think about that. It's not impossible for me to do. I just need a little bit of a heads up to do it. And maybe I'll just drop it in next week. But I digress. The Buccaneers, I honestly don't think this is a bad spot to target Justin Scott, like continuing to keep some synergy from the Miami defensive line. Never a bad idea. You look at the defensive interior, David Stone. I'm having him return. So it's another one. He'll be part of that twenty twenty eight group if we end up going that route. But Justin Scott, I think the talent's there. He just hasn't really elevated it to be the top ten type of player that people expected him to be. I definitely think with some injury concerns and, you know, the overall situation for Tampa, just loading up on defense is always going to be a benefit be to be not going to be there forever, either, either. But you're not replacing him with Justin Scott. That's a nose tackle. But we don't have somebody who is of that position to be able to make that work. Number thirty four for the Tennessee Titans, they already went after Jordan Seaton. I really do like the edge talent available here. If we did want to pull the trigger on their cornerback wise, O.J. Frederick also going to be part of the twenty twenty eight group. But the Corey Swain's possible. You look at the other corner here, Jalen Mayo, very big fan there. D.J. McKinney, Jabril Rawls is funny. He's undersized. Oh, I hate using that word. He is a very explosive athlete who is an enjoyable watch. I haven't fully rated him. So there you go. I'm not going to give you guys the word fun to get out of actually telling you what I think. You guys know me. I hate when people use that term. I don't want to be the one to use it here. Actually, that might be nice. That might be a better look. So you guys can end up seeing right here. But try to do some UI on the fly. I think the best way to go about this is just to maximize edge talent here. And I'm going to go Cleveland edge out of Louisville. He is a first round talent for me. He's somebody who I've been a huge fan of for now multiple years in a row. And so he's continuing to produce. He's up to apparently 267, according to NFS. I think it's a great opportunity for us to show some love to a great player. Of course, the Niners, I had them trade back, but I do think this is a range where they'll be looking at potentially at edge. But I do want to end up taking another peek at the offensive line. Elijah Page is somebody that I think could definitely be a long term offensive tackle drew as a party. Another guy who I have a very good grade on, but he's a right tackle. You got to make sure if you're going to go left, probably do left. PJ Williams, Jakari speak Carter Smith. All of them are going to be more so guards for me. Lao's getting a ton of love, and I do try to blend my board with realism. So I'm going to try to end up doing something respectable here. We have Trevor Lao, who a lot of people want to push into guard, but he's a long term tackle. He plays like a tackle. He can fit as a tackle. You end up getting extra draft tackle capital, and you still end up getting your tackle of the future. Then I can see chiefs. I don't really know if tackles as much of a need is what it says it is, but I do like the idea of going wide receiver for this team. They got some extra draft capital. It's pretty obvious if Ryan Coleman Williams is here, that's the route that they're going to go. You don't want to pay Xavier worthy either. And Ryan Coleman Williams brings a little bit more to the table in terms of excitement than necessarily, you know, a lot of receivers do. He just needs to fix the problem. And so far this year, it's not been a bad option. Houston sitting here at number 37. Cade Peeper is available. He just doesn't fit the archetype of interior offensive alignment that Texans have gone after, which is someone who's going to be a little bit bigger. And that's Austin Searvelt, like around 220 or 320 330 range. Austin Searvelt is a bit better than Cade Piper, who's sub 300. So for me, I think that's going to be a significantly better pool. And yeah, we're going to go Austin Searvelt interior offensive lineman of Ohio State, his tackle versatility as well. So it's good to always have that in your back pocket. Green Bay Packers, speaking of a team that needs interior offensive line help, I debate going Cade Peeper here. And probably that's the route I would go. However, you guys have a fetish for tackle guard hybrids. And I don't blame you. Carter Smith's kind of perfect for that you kick him into guard. He is somebody who has experienced a tackle so you can't really get too pissed off at the potential of him being there. But I think he is significantly worse. But he's also Indiana Northwest type of North Midwest, the crazy part of the Midwest. All right. That ends up having rough weather. And that's something that will definitely translate. You've already seen him in those elements versus some pretty gritty ass teams. Ringo Carter Smith, offensive lineman out of Indiana, Indianapolis. Their first pick was sadly the Jets. Not a good year to do that. This pick, I think I'm going to trick because I see Cade Peeper here and he should be taken as a first round player. And it's just he's continuing to fall. I'm going to make a move up. We're having the Philadelphia Eagles get aggressive here. And also they have some sort of connection, so to speak, to the Indianapolis Colts. But we'll see how long that ends up lasting. The Eagles are making a trade here, and it's only 100 point difference. Technically, we could end up tossing in 97 as part of this equation. But knowing how he's going to try to work some magic, I think a fourth and a fifth, that's going to be a tough one to sell because how is the type to snag some future draft capital as well? And I know he loves his day three picks like I don't want to go too far in terms of draft capital that we'd spend. We're going to give a future five as part of this as well. We're going to give a four and a future five move back ten spots. I personally would take that if I'm the Colts, because I'm not going to be taking a bunch of QBs in that time. And for me, if I'm the Colts, I'm looking at edge and I'm looking at QB. I don't see that being a primary issue here. So we're giving the Philadelphia Eagles a little bit of a deal and they are going to move up to select Cade Peeper guard out of Iowa to pair with Cam Coleman to solve two positions on the offense to make them even more potent than they already are. New Orleans Saints sitting there at number 40. Sammy Brown is like, I hate seeing good players fall. And honestly, once we start seeing a lot of the talent in this class go back to school, it's going to end up being a lot thinner. But Yonsei Pierre easily the selection here. First off, he is able to set the edge really well. Now, technically, you want someone a little bit larger based on what's worked so far, Brandon Staley, but he likes his guys to be from a stand up from his from a standing from a two point stance, I should say. And so there's going to be value for having someone who's a little bit on the lighter side, but he's able to set the edge, able to play the run very well. I have a lot of love for Yonsei Pierre. However, I do think that he's still developing as a pass rusher. And luckily, you already have it solved in terms of having that edge rusher one. Speaking of a team that we already went edge for, it's the Washington Commanders. And I'm looking at the corners now. And again, it's not a good range. This is this is not the range that you want to be in, sadly. But Elijah Green's a corner that I have a lot of respect for and a lot of love for. There's not going to be a lot of people who respect Elijah Green the way I do. But I know a couple people have them as high as their top 32. Like Elijah Green's top 50 on my board. He's well deserving. He is a heavy 195 pound corner. He was just out for the first six weeks this year. But if he ends the year hot, there's no reason why he shouldn't be in this range. He can end up handling any archetype of receiver as well. He's not slow by any means. He'll probably be running into the 4-4-8 range. So definitely somebody to keep your eye out on for a team that desperately needs to solidify their stars on defense. Atlanta at number 42. We could take a shot on a QB here. Again, Bestemaker not in this class. We're not having Lenore Sellers in this class either. He's going to transfer. And then Drake Lindsay also not part of this class. I like to be able to limit myself a little bit here just because I think it makes a lot more sense to make it realistic. If that's the case, I don't know if I'm going to be pulling the trigger on a jade in my office at this point. Like it is something you could easily target. But I also don't know why defensive line is listed as a need here. You guys just paid Garvin Dexter. Very happy that you guys did that, by the way. But honestly, you already went wide receiver once. I don't think it's a bad idea to go or you already went tackle once. I don't know if there was if there was another tackle, I would debate it just for someone to be on the interior off the line and grow into a tackle. But I think wide receivers were going to get your best bang for your buck. So you got Zach Branch for the long haul. Obviously, Drake London, if you're going to get someone who can pair well with them, you look at KJ Duff. That'd be very, very intriguing mix. But I want to get someone who could end up stretching the field a little bit. Ryan Wingo, if he continues to improve his hands, definitely going to be somebody who you will end up adding to the want to list. New York Jets. I want someone who's going to be a really reliable possession receiver. Nick Marsh could 100% be that. But you already kind of have a mark like you have your slot. Omar Cooper Jr. I'm going to go for someone who's a little bit more of a heavy, heavy wide receiver here with KJ Duff out of Rutgers. Very reliable six six to 20 smooth routes. I just, in my opinion, a little bit more inconsistent in terms of translatability than what people give them credit for. New England Patriots sitting here at 44. This is a quick and easy one. Sammy Brown's available. I'm pulling the trigger on him. This team needs some linebacker support and his value is through the roof at this point. So good player in open space, especially with all these Cubies in the division. Definitely going to need to have somebody who can end up tracking them down if they escape the pocket. Forty five Buffalo Bills. They traded back. They got some good draft capital. They got I think they end up getting a future. They got three and then a future two off the top of my head. But regardless, the Bills made a strong move back, and I still think they're in a great position to draft a linebacker here like Kingston, Philly, Mwasa, Christian Allegro. But also that left guard spot can absolutely be filled with a player. This is based off of the current consensus boards. That's a blend of 365 boards, if I'm not mistaken, or over 350 boards. And I'm going to look at the offensive line here, and I'm going to go and take Lance Hurd then to playing guard for us and have that ability to play some tackle as well. Lance Hurd to me is a round two type of guard prospect with the ceiling as a tackle, but he just has a little bit of a slower feet. He's a heavier offensive lineman, so I'm going to take him to be a scrappy interior before I end up betting on him as a long term tackle. The Rams at number 46 sucky position to be in. I can't lie, but you know, you look at them. It's pretty obvious. Wide receiver. Nick Marsh is a very, very reliable weapon. I just don't really think he does anything in terms of being a consistent long range separator to make him noticeably higher than an early second round pick. But he's just a very good receiver all around, and there's a lot of need for that. All right, Dallas Cowboys. First pick was Trevor Goosby to play right tackle, and I think that's a very good move. Of course, I'm patting myself on the back here, but if you look at the cornerback position, I do really love DJ McKinney. I don't know why people are not as high love as well. A strong boundary corner would be ideal. Again, I wish I could have OJ Frederick, but he's out for pretty much the whole year. He'll be a 2028 guy as well. Like Bakari Swain's possible. Jair Hill 100% in the equation, but if I'm being real, I just rather go after best player available. It's always been a better strategy, and you look at Kawan Lacey, who's sitting here, and he's a long, like a home run hitting back that could pair really well with Javante Williams. We're going to go after Kawan there. Pittsburgh at number 48. First pick was Chris Cole, one of my favorite players in the entire class. Beyond a fan of him, he is phenomenal. People want to go QB. Here's the logic, all right, and logic is not something people use very often, you know, for various reasons, but when you end up having two young promising quarterbacks, whether you think Howard can start or not, it is what it is, but you can't deny that Drew Aller showed way more in the preseason than we ever expected. There's legit starter potential there. If you spend a pick on a QB here, you're guaranteeing one will never have the chance to truly be an impact player on our team, and you might say like, I just truly don't believe Drew Aller, and that's your deal. I don't think that you give up on a third round pick who's shown legit potential within a year. He has never taken a snap in the in the regular season, so I just personally don't think that that's the right move. I'd rather spend a first or second round pick on improving my team than necessarily screwing over something that could end up really working for my team. So people are saying, oh, well, I mean, our weapons can't separate. I don't think that that's true. Jeremy Bernard's really solid. DK ended up finally popping off. Michael Pittman Jr. Has always been the more of the possession receiver. Like, I mean, we have weapons. Roman Wilson, before he got a concussion, ended up doing really well. Like, I don't think that we really need to focus on the weaponry here. I do like the idea of focusing on the interior of the offensive line, though. I think there's 100 percent a need there. And if we were to look at the best value, there's Evan here, Evan Tengestal. He's a very solid player, but I'm looking at and P.J. Williams. Both of these players are very reliable tackles who will end up being much better as guards, in my opinion. I've had some interactions with P.J. Williams. Personally, I'm not a huge fan of his character, but that's just between me, you, and a wall. I'm going to go after Jakarius Peake here to play guard for the Pittsburgh Steelers tackle out of South Carolina. He's about 300 pounds, but really good mover. He's a scrappy player, just not really somebody who I prefer to have holding up on the edge. Number forty nine. We're back with the Colts. And I mean, if they're sitting there at number, I think it was number seven or number six overall. And obviously their first pick went to the to the Jets. I'm going to go after a QB here. We're going Jaden Mayaba quarterback out of USC. Not mistaken. There's an out on Daniel Jones's contract. If it ends up getting to that point, it's pretty clear that you guys would take that out. You had the Bengals sitting here at 50. Their left tackle spot's a legit problem. It's their corner and their and their left tackle spot, in my opinion, that those are the two that I'd want to address. Elijah Page is a true left tackle here, and you're taking a legit potential starter in the second round. And it's hard to find tackles that could legitimately play here in the second. So it's a good tackle class before the guys start going back to school. There's always that big asterisk is like who's going to go back to school? But Elijah Page could be as high as a first round pick. Carolina Panthers took Kelly Jones in round number one, a corner out of Mississippi State. This is a team that I personally really like. I would like to go after a tight end for him. I love Luke Reynolds. I have a higher grade on him than trade as a green. I think trade is green is a glorified wide receiver. And even though you would end up just putting him into the Darren Waller role, and it would work very well. Honestly, I'm kind of selling myself on that. Teams are going to love trade as green. I need to blend my opinion with realism for these because, you know, I've allowed it kind of dissuade a little too much early on. We're going to trade as a green tight end out of LSU there because it's going to essentially be Darren Waller. All right, Ravens, you ended up trading up, sending a third round pick to the New York Jets and you drafted Jaden Bond round one. Again, I haven't seen the opinions on it. I'm sure it's not pretty. I'm sure people are not going to love it. But I love PJ Williams on this team as a guard. I think that he is a scrappy player who has really good movement skills and can slide in right away at guard. I think you'd get yourselves a home run pick there. You have a much more repleted offensive line and then you have an elite running back and then you have Lamar in that equation to like you protect him. I think it's the smartest move that you can make. Chicago Bears at pick number 53 first pick Devin Tompkins. The question is, do you want him to be an edge or defensive interior? Personally, I think he's better as a defensive interior. He's a nasty player, man. He is a really greedy player who can play all around. But I do think you add another five, 10 pounds to him, like take a little bit of the feisty, like a little bit of the speed away and just make him a little bit heavier as an anchor, even though I think does a great job. He's going to be a great Dennis Allen defensive interior. Will health is still available. And I know that it's tough to imagine the Bears doing anything but offense with the second pick. But when the values there, the values there is a perfect Dennis Allen edge. The defense is letting this team down. We're going to go will held out of Clemson there. 54 Seattle Seahawks first pick Greg Johnson guard out of Minnesota. Amazing fit, great movement skills here at number 54. Oh, so good. I see Dom Nichols is high. I prefer a player who has a little bit more sand in the pants. I'd be looking much more at Jordan Ross. If I'm going to be going after an edge rusher at this point, I think Kenyatta Jackson Quincy roads are just a little bit overrated from the preseason ranking. Still, people are just slowly. I mean, you'll see their consensus rankings at 51, 52. These players were at like 16 and 15 at the beginning of the year. So the opinions definitely are shifting. Jordan Ross is a very good player. Like I probably am happy taking him there. Bryce young, another player who is not getting enough respect at all. There's some very good edge rushers in the country right now, as there is every year, but there's AJ green as well from Louisville down there. There's a lot of good choices. You could look at wide receiver though, because the values awesome here, but I do feel a little bit bad. If you have, I feel like we're robbing ourselves. If we have really good edge options and you're just going to go a receiver because you want to go receiver. This is defensive head coach. So he's going to end up targeting top end talent, principal mom, yelling at Russia LSU. He dropped down a little bit more back into that two 50 range. It's up to two 55 last year, just looked out of shape. It looks a lot better this year, and it's been a lot more productive. So we're going to send him off the edge. The 55 we have Denver first pick Jamari Johnson, the quickest and the easiest pick of the first round, by the way, I don't think that interior office aligns off the board here, but I do like the idea of a linebacker that is just electric. He comes downhill hot. He's, he looks better this year than he did before. It's the question is, what are the medical say? He has two ACL tears on the same knee, and we'll see if that ends up becoming a big issue. We're going to go Kingston, Billy. I'm also a linebacker at a Notre Dame. They're 52 or 55, 56 for the Jags. First pick Caden green and offensive lineman out of Missouri. I always focus on fix the offensive line. That's the number one thing for me. If there's some sort of debate there, you do it. I'm going to look at defensive front here. And you know, you trade for Rooker Rojo because Mason Smith didn't really fit worry. Otavian Gadsden, who's a really solid pass rusher. I have him as a top 50 grade as well. Good defensive interior pressure. And it makes it make sense why we would end up taking. It makes you feel better about the Giants going defensive interior early because they went Amari Washington when we took cave in Gadsden here right before him. I do think they need to get a little bit more balance in their receiving core. And I like Amari and Miller, but there's no way. Why? Who is putting Brandon in? It's above Devin McEwen. This is some bullshit. Devin McEwen is a frickin baller. He's a very balanced receiver who ends up playing operating well from the slot, operates well from the outside UTSA transfer. Whoever on like if I find somebody who has Brandon in is above Devin McEwen. I will be ignoring their wide receiver takes. Like there's some things like there's always a huge range that people can go, right? Like if you have a first round grade on someone, I have a third round grade on all of it. But I'm never going to like just cast your opinion aside. Putting Brandon in this as a draftable and then be above Devin McEwen. I'll leave it there. All right. Detroit Lions, we went after Kingston Lopa in round number one. I'm pulling a corner here in round number two because y'all need the help. And I want someone who has a little bit more sand in the pants. We're going to go Jalen Mayo corner out of Houston. He's not necessarily the most yards averse like he gets some yards put on him. But this dude is aggressive as hell and he makes some really big splash plays. I'm excited to get a grade on him in all 22. Number 59 Cleveland. Speaking of another team that needs a corner, Jared Hill definitely comes to mind, but I really love DJ McKinney. You know, obviously another Sanders. He ended up playing for Deion Sanders a year ago, transfers to Notre Dame, and he's been doing a really good job this year. I'm going to give him the credit he deserves and put him on the boundary. Number 60, Las Vegas. First pick Ahmad Moten. I did a good job because Omarion Miller is still here. Deuce Alexander is still here. Like I'm very happy I avoided wide receiver early. I'm going to go Omarion Miller because 6-2, 2-14, smooth after the catch, good route runner. Just Reed Harris has been so dominant in that offense that you just can't really do anything but, you know, give it some love, you know. Alright, number 61 for the Niners. We already have gone after tackle slash guard. We're going to go after edge here. This is the time. And you look at the options available. I'm going to go after a physical freak here, Jordan Ross, edge out of LSU, formerly Tennessee. A top-end athlete, someone that you cannot take your eyes off of. He was a great week one. I'm excited to see how he ends up evolving and continuing to become a top-tier threat. But simply put, you can't trust Bosa's health, and then based on how Jerry Bosa's career kind of took a turn, I'm worried that it might be the same with Nick. 62 for Buffalo. First pick was Lance Hurd to move into guard. This selection, I would be open to a wide receiver here because Deuce Alexander brings a deep threat capability that I don't think the Bills have. So we're going to pull the trigger on him here. Deuce Alexander, wide receiver out of Ole Miss. He's a top 30 player on Jordan Reed's big board as well. So I'm excited to give him some credit. 63, Minnesota. Already addressed QB for the long haul for Dante Moore. Again, if you are at number 31, there's a strong chance you avoid that. But sometimes a you end up just taking him and saying, you know, we're going to have him sit until we end up feeling otherwise. Running back, I like the value here. And not only do I like the value here, I have a player who I have as a top 32 player still available. Keewan Brown running back out of Louisville is that player. Where does he sit currently on my board? So where's Keewan Brown? Number 26. So 26 overall on my board, really balanced back. I mean, he's someone who is great contact balance, elite vision, great explosiveness, smooth with his movement, just doesn't have the elite top end speed. But that's not necessarily what you're looking for. You want to have someone who could be a down by down threat. And he's a good blocker. He's a good route runner. One of the better players gets no recognition whatsoever. And that's going to change as more people who actually want to study the draft end up getting into it. I think that this is just a collection of way too many boards. And I hate to say it. There's not more than 300 people who actually are watching these players. So number 64, we have the Chiefs. This is a quick and easy one. I'm going Luke Reynolds tight end out of Virginia Tech. He is phenomenal. He's a great blocker and he's elite after the catch. Not a great route runner, not a great athlete in terms of top end speed. But he is someone where you'll get him into a soft spot. He will catch it and he will make dudes miss. And then he's going to block his ass off. I love Luke Reynolds and I think he's a great way to end off round number two. Round three begins with Tennessee, who has already taken Jordan Seton and Cleve Lubin. This team does need a corner. I don't I don't disagree with with these needs here. And Bakari Swain Gyro Hill. I'm has a lot of experience. He's 6'2". He's going to be a corner one archetype coming in right away. I need to see him be consistent week to week. I've seen some where he's lying a touchdown here. He's getting a couple of pass breakups here. I want to see a little bit more consistency, but he looked really good transferring from 2024 to 2025. I'm excited to get that updated grade for him in 2026. Number 66, Los Angeles Chargers. Will Eccles, Reed Harrison. Nice and if I will say I want to target a high tier edge rusher here and this is a former Michigan system. So we're going to go a Michigan player, Dom Nichols, edge rusher out of Michigan, goes at 66 pass rusher who probably will end up being in the 2028 class. But I'm going to give him some love here. Maybe if you get some day to love, he'll end up coming out. But he's been extremely productive overall. Very good player, took over games early. Single handedly kind of kept Michigan in that Western Michigan game too. Weird to say that out loud, but Dolphins ended up going after two impact players of Colin Simmons and CJ Carr in the first round. Here in the third, I do want to get more firepower if I can. There's Nick Harbor here. And honestly, you look at the weapons that this team does have, it does all have height as one of the major factors. And there's too much potential to pass up on Nick Harbor at this point. It's a third round. Pull it 66 to 43, four to speed. Sometimes you just got to pull the trigger on the traits. Jeremiah Smith, Austin Searvel, the first picks for Houston. Honestly, those are the big ones. Let's go for a running back at this point, though. I want to go for a home run hitter. I do think Nate Frazier might be the one I go after. Got to give love to Fluff Bothwell. What an elite player. I like first off elite name, but this guy 5'10", 230. He's just so good. He's going to be 2028, though. I'm not even going to include him in this out of respect for Camario Taylor and to make my job easier for a 2028 mock in the future. But for me, I want to go after a home run hitter. Nate Frazier is built extraordinarily well, and he has that top end speed. You cannot say no to Nate Frazier. Number 69 for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. We haven't had any trades, but again, David Stone, Drew Mestemaker, Lenora Sellers, all considered 2028 in this. I am curious about going a high tier edge and just going heavy defense like we'll see who the coach is. But Bobacar Traore or Bobacar Traore has come on, but he's always just been a really good pass rusher. I'm trying to see who I get Bryce Young, another very respectable edge rusher. I'm trying to just see if there's anybody else that needs to get mentioned. Solomon Williams. I don't know if he's going to actually be anything in the NFL, but, you know, another name that he's been producing in college. So that's cool. I'll see tomorrow morning because I'm here in Dallas. I'll be seeing Chris Jones in person. I'll be very entertaining. Hopefully that's an enjoyable matchup to watch. But a lot of people get mad that I don't give Bobacar the love that he deserves. We'll send him off the edge here for the Buccaneers. We're going to get a lot of young, exciting, enjoyable, electric talent there. All right. Andy Davos Colts with Jaden Maiava in the second round with their first selection. Honestly, I'm going to stick to the edge core too. And a lot of people love Kenyatta Jackson. This is where I'll end up having, you know, my opinion and the public end up overlapping or at least kind of like settling on a middle ground. Kenyatta Jackson, edge out of Ohio State, goes to the Indianapolis Colts. New Orleans Saints, Ashton Hampton, Yonze Pierre, the first picks. This is an offensive coach though. It's time to look at the offensive side. Quarterback Saul for the long haul. Running back, you have enough talent there with enough money. Tight end, I could see like more of a blocking tight end. If we did end up seeing Luke Reynolds here, I think he'd work really well with Jomari Johnson. So not Jomari Johnson, sorry, Jawan Johnson, but I think that would be a very good player to have. Alec Tonic deserves some love too. Let's see, there's some good tight ends in this class. Oakley is a reliable threat. There's a particular UCLA tight end that I'm a very big fan of. Elijah Lofton being in the 500s is crazy. I don't get that one personally, but you know, people, Julio Skinner too, like what's up with this? I can guarantee you, there's just like not enough people. So they just show them down at the bottom of the list. Hey, at least we can, we can click on them, right? Like here I am bitching and moaning. I always end up having way bigger issues with like having placeholders and such. But yeah, I mean, I definitely wish there were some better tight ends because this class kind of cheeks. Like Terrence Carter, I really like him, but he doesn't provide any new value to the Saints. But like offensive line wise, there's someone who's like a can't miss. Not really. Like Nikki Prongos is not a can't miss like Desmond Lee. You're not really looking for that, but there is drew as a party here and you guys don't trade back. So I'm not going to, but I am kind of intrigued to kind of make a move up with a team here because I do think this is a very good opportunity for a team that wants to solidify their offensive line. And Austin Green Bay is not a bad option with the health concerns. Since he did, did I draft, did I draft one for Cincy? I don't believe I did. Um, just checking really quick. Elijah Page. I did. Okay. I was like, that would have been mismanagement. Uh, but like looking at teams that would be kind of ballsy enough to move up for a tackle. I actually liked the Carolina Panthers getting ballsy. That's a, that's a good team to get gutsy right there. Uh, Denver Broncos, they have a lot of aging talent on their team as well. Jacksonville can double down on offensive tackle. I feel pretty comfortable, but that's not what we're going to do with the saints. I'm just gonna go BPA and that's wide receiver. There's a very good one still available. Uh, Brian West goes a stud, but let's look at the wipes years. We have Chris Alave, Jordan Tyson, Lance, like I'd prefer to have a little bit, a little bit of size. If I could on a receiver, Trey Richardson got to show him some love speaking like the opposite of size. He Sean Singleton now. Interesting. I didn't realize we took so many of the reliable, big receivers. Uh, Mike Matthews is probably the next one I'd go with. I don't like juice Robinson. I don't think Martin Craver would ever fit those profiles anyways. So we're going to actually, yeah, you know, I like that. We're going to go Mike Matthews, wide receiver out of Tennessee for the record. Someone's going to be like, well, Amari Thomas, he's a six foot. No, he's not. NFS guys measured him at under five 11. So he's like five, 10 and a half. He's a slot, but Mike Matthews, six, one, 200 pounds. Really good build. I think that he's better than Lance, but you can end up having like the more the merrier. Am I right? Commanders. Interesting spot because we just took one of the better players, but I might go Brian Wesco here and just pair them up long haul. Like you end up obviously having Antonio Williams, Brian Wesco is a stud too. I don't mind it because you've gone after two offensive or defensive positions here with Stuart and green. Let's go Brian Wesco and see and make sure that the injury is not going to end up being a long-term thing. By the way, Braylon Staley going to be a 2028 guy for me as well. Number 73 for the Atlanta Falcons, Melvin Ziani, Ryan Wingo, the selections there. We're going to end up pulling a, probably a QB right here, just to toss them into the mix. Niko Yamilava might be the one I, I target here. Like Riola could come out. That would be intriguing. That'd be an intriguing matchup for it to see him come out at the same time. He's a stud too. I don't think he comes out, but because you don't end up making a move by going to Oregon. If you're expecting to come out this year, we're going to Niko Yamilava quarterback out of UCLA on a real skillset, tall, fast rocket arm just needs to kind of just chill the **** out. If we're being honest. All right. The charges have multiple picks left. If I'm going to go and target players for them, I might, I need, why is interior off the line? Not one of their needs. We're definitely targeting that, but looking at the options available, I personally would probably like to go Nicky Prongos and move him into guard. He's he's tall, but you have a tall quarterback, right? That's the whole entire process. It's like, I don't really worry about the size in that aspect. So we're going to go Nicky Prongos and move him to guard in that situation. All right. Patriots, Charlie Becker, Sammy Brown. Very happy with that. I'd be looking at corner here and Jamar of a Corey swing, excuse me, is a great returner. Good corner as well. I think he's someone who deserves a lot more respect than he gets at this point. So we're going to end up getting him into the mix. Good player. Great value. Pull the trigger. All right. Cardinals, you're sitting here and edges still pretty solid as a pickup. Like you have really good contributors. John Henry Daly, short arms with a very good contributor. Tatum Tuiyoti literally just, he reminds me so much of like an Eagles archetype of edge, like Josh sweat archetype. It just, he's built well. Definitely someone I keep an eye on. Anthony Smith kind of finally broke out this year, which is good, but took him a while to do it. So I'm a little bit worried about that linebacker. There's still some good players here. Honestly, Christian Allegro, I'm going to take him here. He's 250 pounds. I've kind of let him slide way too far, but he's also not getting a ton of love. It's very realistic for a player who I have as a top 50 player to slip here to the third Casey at 77. I said they don't need a tackle, but there's a certain point where I don't necessarily trust for the long haul. If that right tackle spot is secured, I'm going through as a party tackle out of Washington here. He's a top 50 player on my board. The one who I was trying to trade up for with the Carolina Panthers. But if I'm the chiefs lock it down and then shut the door, forget it. Invest in your offense because that's where the face of your franchise is. Pittsburgh Steelers. We've got an offensive line with interior offensive line, Jakarius Peake and Chris Cole to be our elite linebacker flying off the edge. Sitting here at 78, we have 78 and 80 as well. I would be very intrigued to see what the corners are. And you look at the options available. Bryce Pollock's a good player. I just don't trust Sabian Brown. I think of him as like a zone only corner who cannot handle any reps in man. Daniel Harris, man, he needs to check his attitude because like he gets some stupid ass penalties. But this dude, if he ends up getting a ---- together, he was already a great archetype of corner at Georgia six three one ninety five. And then he's gotten way better at Cal in the actual game of football. But it's just he makes some stupid mistakes. Bo Masco, very similar in terms of very big flashes. But overall, you're just like, please stop grabbing the receiver. And can you just cover him? But I wish O.J. Frederick was here. Bryce Pollock, he's an experienced corner as well. I think that it's one of the more underwhelming selections but it probably is one of the better ones. He's been a very good corner overall. We need to add some really reliable bodies into that secondary and the Packers would have been the one to take them if not. Speaking of the Packers, I mean, Caitlin Lee probably would be my next one. I think this team still needs extra bodies in its secondary. So we're going to go after a player who just ended up mossing someone who I ended up taking in the first round in Cam Coleman. We're back with the Steelers again. First three picks Bryce Pollock, Jakari's picket guard and Chris Cole. Honestly, I'm pretty happy with that. I'd look at the running back room for another contributor for the long haul. Honestly, based on the players available, shout out to Jacobi Williams. He's a good player to Adam Mohammed. I hope he's healthy. I haven't seen any updates since he ended up leaving this past game. But honestly, it would probably be my next guy. That's like probably the next one I end up selecting. So I'm going to hold off on the running back position. Again, the value here is probably a wide receiver. You end up looking at T.J. Moore, Amari Thomas. And based on the archetype of receivers we have, like I think Amari Thomas might be someone who fits pretty damn well. We always do well with our receivers on day three. Amari has really good catching statistics as well. So we're going to draft Amari Thomas wide receiver out of Houston there. He is, again, 5'11", but ridiculous hands, smooth mover in space. Him, Jeremy Bernard, DK. You end up with Michael Pippen. Really good receiving crew for the future. All right. Bengals at 81. K.J. Bolden, Elijah Page, the first two selections. Another team, in my opinion, that should be targeting a corner if one's available. Elliott Washington's coming off a two interception game. Was really good at Penn State, but just not NFL level. Ends up going to Clemson and has taken his game to another level. We're going Elliott Washington corner out of Clemson there. Number 82 for the Minnesota Vikings. We've got Kiwon Brown and Don Tay Moore. I do think edge rusher is an underrated position to target. I do think I've kind of depleted said position a little bit too much for my liking. We could try to continue tapping into the cornerback room, but there's a certain point where I'm like, eh. I look at here and then I'm like, damn. You got guys like Ty Benefield. I'm going to go for the big play threat here in Ty Benefield. Number 83, we have the Carolina Panthers. Is there a good right tackle still available? Let's just double check, like pulse check. Ian Moore is a solid player. Wouldn't take him. He's a left tackle as well. Desmiel Lee is a project. Ryan Baer is a super high floor player. I just would probably just roll the dice on. I'd roll the dice on somebody in the NFL at this point. Might not a fan of it, but if I'm looking for the Panthers, I'd almost double down a corner. I think we've just taken too many of them. Running back's good value at this point for a balanced back, and I ended up mentioning him earlier. You look at Fluff Bothwell. I mean, I'm not going to include him in this, but that's the name. If everyone were available, I would be pulling the trigger on. Isaac Brown is a home run hitting threat. Not a bad option. Mark Fletcher really, Ahmad Hardy is going to be in that class. I don't like this pick, so you know what? This is the perfect opportunity for a trade. I was going to trade up for Drew as a party, but where are the Philadelphia Eagles? They're sitting here at number 97, and so that's a pretty big drop off right there from 83 to 97. I didn't realize it was. Was that 63 in terms of value? That's crazy. That's actually crazy. I can't That is actually wild. Damn. We're going to give a fifth round pick. The Eagles have already gotten Kate Pieper on this, so I can't give them too much of a pass. We're going to take one of their fourth round picks, and then we're going to swap a seventh, and then we're going to give them a sixth. How about that? Is that better? Oh, actually, finally. Okay, cool. We'll end up getting a five out of the equation, and we'll give them a six. There you go. Howie Roseman, he ends up making another move, getting aggressive. Their first picks were not Kelly Jones and Trey that is green, or the people watching. They selected Cam Coleman and trade up for Kate Pieper, but safety is a big issue. I'm going to get a coverage safety here in Jalen McClain out of Ohio State. Very balanced safety. Could be as high as a first round type of pick, but safety's fell on this one because there's just a lot more pressing needs. All right, Bears still looking at corner. We've taken out a lot of them. It's not pretty. Devin Tompkins will help. This is also a team that is head coached by an elite offensive line. I don't know if they're going to allow something like that to happen. We're going to look on the interior offensive line. A very high quality guard here in Evan Tengestal is going to be someone who we end up drafting to be a long-term option for them down the line. Number 85 for the Seattle Seahawks. They've gone guard as well as edge rusher. We're going to look at the receiving position now, and I think TJ Moore's value is impeccable. You pull the trigger on TJ Moore, who has the potential to be someone who's a high-end wide receiver too. Number 86, we have the Denver Broncos, who have gone after tight end and linebacker. Very boring positions, but this is also a team you can end up pulling a trigger on a high-ceiling offensive lineman. And we're going to go after Desmond Lee, tackle out of Youngstown State. I end up going against Kentucky this year, start out, and that was his one translatable performance. Looked pretty promising, but again, you're taking pure ceiling at this point, and that's the luxury that the Broncos have with having a very good team. Jaguars, first pick, Caden Green to play guard or tackle, and Tavia Gadsden to play defensive interior. Personally, I love those players. I think those would be absolute home run picks. Now, if you want to look elsewhere, I am a fan of going running back for this team because I understand the respect that y'all have for the running back position, but if we're looking on the offensive line, I personally, like, I am kind of the type to siphon off all the talent, so I think I've done that a little too much. I'm just looking for a best player available at this point. This might be a trade-out situation. Looking at the quarterbacks available, is there anybody worth trading up for? I mean, Austin Simmons could be part of this equation, but I don't know. DJ Lagway, I mean, I'm going to have him as 2028 as well. I don't think he's coming out this year just based on him being banged up, but he deserves to be in this mix. I have him as my 22nd overall player, but I'm just very realistic about the situation. The way he's banged up, I just don't think it's going to be something that teams are, like, really intrigued on trying to pull the trigger on. Grant, Jelani McDonald's here, heavy safety. You know what, let's set the tempo. We're going Jelani McDonald. We're just going BPA. Never ends up failing, right? All right, Jets, Arch Manning, Ellis Robinson, Tay Johnson, KJ Duff. What a haul. All right, so at this point, I probably do want to target defensive interior. Bear Alexander will probably fall to this range in reality just because of the personality concerns. His talent shines through it all. Gide, I'll be sorry. It's another player I really want to give some love to. He's just 285 at defensive interior. Probably not going to go over too well, save in France's brew. Horace Lockett's getting some love. I think that he's kind of a he's not that good. Kamari Copeland, I think he's number five or number six, maybe number seven on Bruce Feldman's freaks list. That dude is a he's a wall, but it doesn't matter for the Detroit Lions. I'd be open to going after a QB for them. This is where like you could get D.J. Lagway who I'm pushing to 2028. That's where I would pull the trigger on one. But offensive line, you guys have emphasized your need for it. Brandon Baker is a very experienced offensive lineman, so I wouldn't mind going after him at this point. But Anthony Knapp, he's somebody who's been up and down, started the year really hot, but he's had some hiccups there. Definitely a name to to watch on that list. All right, number 90, New York Giants, Emory Washington and Devin McEwen, both top 50 players for me. I'm going to go and try to target best player available. Chris Peel's a good player. I'm going to show him some love here. We're going to get a defensive back piece here for you all to mess around with. Chris Peel's been consistent for a couple of years now. Cleveland Browns, D.J. McKinney, Trinidad Chambliss. I like that list. I like your defensive interior room. I honestly don't even think you need to target an edge as much as what y'all keep saying that you do. So I don't really think there's much to address here. You look at the linebackers, though, and man, Ben Roberts at 250 pounds. Definitely, if he's not going to start right away, someone that you want to try to work into that defense. With Carson Schweizinger, Oaks Christian alum. Shout out to my high school. Number 92, Las Vegas. Honestly, good players off the edge right now. For this value, there's some dudes who can fly off the edge. Antosaka, really good pass rusher. He looks a little old, but Wendell Gregory, if you get his ass in shape, this dude is an absolute menace. I'm going to give him some love here. Wendell Gregory out of Kansas State. I want to slim him down a little bit, but like talent wise through the roof bills gone, Lance Hurd and Deuce Alexander got to focus on the defense right now. And you look at the talent available. Tony Rojas was in a very recent first round mock draft. He's been extremely, extremely productive as well. We're going to go with him there at 93, 94 for the Niners. I'm going interior offensive line. Anthony Boswell out of Houston. He was just drafted in Mike Renner's number. I think it was Mike Renner's number 32 overall pick for the Browns, but he has been, he's been getting a lot of love. So I want to feature him in this. I have not studied him, but the fact is I want you guys who are watching to at least get exposed. And you know, people are giving a lot of love to Anthony Boswell right now. So it's my job to get up to date on that. But as of right now, we're still in the process of doing that. Vikings, Kwon Brown, Dante Moore, Ty Benefield elite class, by the way, if I say so myself, I want to take a player who's an absolute demon off the edge. Damon would be kind of funny because kind of is what it means. But Antosaka flies off the edge, really good build, freak athlete, just still putting it all together. Good DPR. You want someone you could develop to be a menace off the edge. And he's exactly that. All right, chiefs ended up drafting why Ryan Coleman Williams, Luke Reynolds, drew as a party, got to do some for the defense. And yeah, I'm going to go for a player that has some personality concerns. But this this school produce some good corners for you before. And I want to get some good depth in there. You end up having really good talent in your secondary. And I'm going to continue to develop it with Daniel Harris corner out of Cal. Yeah, I mean, you guys have already kind of addressed secondary at this point with heavy corners that could be extremely flexible. Daniel Harris, a ton of experience at this point to number 97 Carolina Panthers, Kelly Jones, Trey does green. Let's go defensive back. Like there's nothing wrong with going DB as much as you can. And I'm looking at the options here. And there's a lot of good ones, too. This is it's a pretty good defensive back class, except for Corey Parrish. Like this is how, you know, people don't watch ball. They have Corey Parrish in here. I'm going to go out to Bray Hubbard. He's he's a tone setter. And I know it's not the biggest need for the Panthers, but I want someone who emphasizes what a team should be having in terms of the energy of their secondary. So I think he's just more of like an emotional captain, so to speak, if you will. All right. Cincinnati, I'm going to a tight end here. We're going to go Terrence Carter tight end out of Texas Tech. I think that he's a high tier tight end. I have him as a top 32 player right now, but he will probably definitely fall. Probably definitely. Hello. He will definitely fall a little bit when I end up regrading him. He hasn't been nearly as productive this season in terms of the missed tackles force. He had a 50% missed tackle force rate last year, but someone definitely keep your eye on. So solid blocker. He's just undersized a little bit, but Cincinnati can can make that work. Green Bay at number 99. I don't think edge is going to be as big of a position anymore. We've got an interior offensive line with Carter Smith and corner with Caitlin Lee or Kay and Lee, excuse me. At this point, I do think you could even double up on the offensive line. It's that bad. And Poncho's here. We're going to have Poncho Laulolu center out of Oregon. Number 100 chargers. We've done a lot. Eccles, Harris, Nichols and Prongos. Good group of players. I'm going to the corner room here. See who's available. Zeke Berry. He's a little on the smaller side, but could be a reliable boundary. I'm going to go John Tez Williams corner out of USC. Just, you know, hybrid slot boundary archetype, but physical high IQ. Good player was a top 50 player for me last year before he got hurt. 101 for Seattle. They've gone Greg Johnson, Prince will mommy Ellen and TJ more. At this point, I don't mind the idea of going after a heavier back like LJ Martin, who can end up kind of carrying the load with price for the long haul and get Zach Charbonnet out of there, which sucks because Zach Charbonnet is actually a friend of mine or a former friend of mine. I would say he ended up being a little bit more Hollywood once he went to Michigan, but still someone who is an actual friend at high school. We got LJ Martin going to the Seahawks there and ending off this mock draft. We have the CLC Hawks sitting again at number 102. Let's see. Is there any player that I need to get off the board? Because saying as well, probably going to have him be 2028, but he's not going to be in the mock draft. I don't think that he's a NFL player. That's a hot take, but it is what it is. Sam Levitt probably will end up being drafted. So might want to have a team get a little ballsy for him. Let's see who we want to trade up with. So Arizona already got their QB Atlanta. Did we ever get a QB for Atlanta? I think we did. Pretty sure we did, actually. Didn't we do it in this round, too? Pretty sure we ended up pulling the trigger on one. Niko, yalla, yalla. Hell yeah. I was like, I feel like we definitely have already done that. Baltimore Ravens aren't going to go for one. Bills neither. Panthers could pull the trigger on one. Like, they could go after a Sam Levitt, but I feel like this is just way too late for that. The Browns already, I believe, already targeted their QB. Actually, no, they didn't. No ----. We didn't go after a QB for the Browns, which is not a mistake, but this is like the range because, yeah, we got DJ McKinney there. I, oh, ******* dumbass. I could just pull it up here. Look at this ----. We did go trade at Chambliss. Okay. I'm like, well, all right. So we already did that. Dallas is not going to do it. Denver's not going to do it. Detroit, Detroit could be a one to do it. I actually like that. Detroit kind of planning for the future here. We're pulling through a trade with the Detroit Lions. They're coming up to, that is crazy. That that's ridiculous. Oh, it's a 20 spot move up though. But yeah, we'll, we'll end up saying two fourths at which what the Lions have done before. They're going to make the trade up. They're going to move up and select Sam Levitt quarterback out of LSU. So that's the video. Let me know what you guys think. Thank you guys so much for watching, showing the love that you guys always do. Quick little recap right there. Thank you again. Let me know what you guys think down in the comment section below. See you later. Peace.
