Kendall Wright has been graded as a first round pick for the longest, as a matter fact you can bet on cleveland taking him or another receiver with there second first round pick, they have pretty much said it out loud. Where have yall been??

Based on the old draft value charts, the Lions 1st and 2nd is only worth around the 14-15 pick. Adding their 3rd wouldnt even get them up to 12. I know many have said that those charts are obsolete but the main reason they became useless were the stupid contracts rookies were getting. With the rookie wage scale in place, the draft value chart has become relevant again and some trades last year were not only in line with it but showed that the early picks were worth MORE than what the chart said. Example, Wash. traded #16 & #48 (worth 1,410 pts combined on the chart) to the Jags for #10 (worth only 1,300 on the chart).

Per Rotoworld, Chargers are serious as well:

The Union-Tribune San Diego confirms the Chargers "continue to talk" to teams about trading up for Alabama S Mark Barron.

There hasn't been a hotter name in the hours leading up to the draft. The Bolts would have to move up at least 8-10 spots with the Bills, Cowboys, Lions, and Patriots also reported to be hot on Barron's trail. The Chargers and Patriots reportedly "love" the draft's best safety.

    • After seeing hits in the last two UDFA pools, I do not in this group sorta of a let down after I gassed myself up.  Not like I know of their games, but just expected more. The duke DT only has to beat out hunte (2025 UDFA) or Ray (DL coach's kid) or even Cam Jackson mid 2025 5th.  I thought they would bring in more edges, IOL, TEs, etc...
    • My 2 favorite picks, since you didn't ask? 3. Brazzell II.  A 1000 yard WR with 4.37 speed and checks all the boxes for a Z Wide Receiver.  IN THE THIRD ROUND!!! 5.  Sam Hecht.  I think he will take over as the starter at some point this season and never look back.  IN THE FIFTH ROUND. Runner Up:  2. Hunter:  We were targeting a DT early in this draft because we did very little to replace Robinson in free agency.  Hunter was our guy and he will start. In addition to that, you got a starting tackle that should man one side of the new OL we will build for Bryce's second contract. A starting WR, offensive lineman, defensive lineman and possible Offensive tackle (at some point during this year from this draft will start.  UNREAL. In addition, I don't doubt that Wheatley (5th round) takes the FS job by next year and Lee III is Jackson's replacement in 2027.   Finally, even Kuwatch should be a special teams demon and LB depth.   Last year's draft was so good it was ugly.  This one will turn out to be uglier.  No offense Basbear--this ain't about you.
