Draft

Ian Rapoport reports that there are plenty of teams “scrambling” to trade up into the Top 5 picks. However, teams drafting after No. 5 are reportedly looking to trade back as this is considered to be a top-heavy draft.

  • According to Dan Pompei, the most likely teams to trade up in round one are the Falcons, Rams, Browns and Eagles.
  • Teams most likely to trade back, according to Pompei, are the Redskins and Jets. Pompei mentions that lot hinges on these two teams.
  • Pompei is the latest to mention that there could be a number of trades towards the end of round one, as there are multiple teams looking to get back into the first round.
  • Iowa OL Brandon Scherff is reportedly a hot commodity, according to Pompei. The Redskins, Giants, Rams, Jets, and others could all be in play Scherff.
  • Miami OT Ereck Flowers could be a surprise Top 10 pick now that LSU OL La’el Collins could be dropping.

Jaguars

  • According to Mark Long, the Jaguars “won’t be” drafting Florida DE/OLB Dante Fowler.
