This year’s draft in Green Bay, Wisconsin on April 24th will have many twists and turns. Here are predictions from The Warrior about this upcoming draft.
With the first pick, the Titans will pick Cam Ward, quarterback (QB) out of Miami. The Titans need a QB because Will Levis has not performed as planned. Ward can move around the pocket and is also able to sling the ball down the field.
With the second pick, the Browns will take Shedeur Sanders, QB out of Colorado. Saunders will greatly contribute because of Deshaun Watson’s Achilles heel injury. Saunders will be able to help the Browns with their QB struggles that have been over their entire franchise history.
The Giants will take Travis Hunter out of Colorado with the third pick. The Giants need help on offense and defense, and Hunter can play both at wide receiver and cornerback.
Abdul Carter will be picked fourth overall by the Patriots. The edge rusher out of Penn State will boost New England’s fire-power on the defensive side of the ball.
The Jaguars will take Mason Graham with the fifth pick. The Jags did not add any defensive linemen in free agency, and Graham can help boost the d-line.
The Raiders will take Ashton Jeanty with the sixth pick. The new head coach, Pete Carrol, likes to run the ball more, and Jeanty can be a power rusher but is also very fast.
The Jets will take Jackson Dart with the seventh pick. Dart will be the starter if Justin Fields starts on the wrong foot at QB.
Tight end Tyler Warren will be taken by the Panthers at eighth overall. From Penn State, Warren will become a big weapon for young QB Bryce Young.
Jalon Walker will be taken ninth overall by the Saints. Walker will help the Saints get to the QB more with his great edge-rushing tactics.
With the 10th pick, Armand Membou will be taken by the Bears. Membou will help block for Caleb Williams, their young and upcoming QB.
This draft will be filled with excitement, disappointment and surprises.
