ANALYSIS: Chicago traded up in the
first round to draft a physical freak with Leonard Floyd. Floyd was however a
perennial underachiever at Georgia. Cody Whitehair is an immediate
plug-and-play guy at left guard. Jonathan Bullard should provide some pass rush
help. Jordan Howard will help offset some of the loss incurred by losing Matt
Forte. Deiondre’ Hall has the potential to start in the near future. He is a
trash talker on the field, but he backs it up. Deandre Houston-Carson will have
a longer career in the league than Deon Bush, in my opinion. Daniel Braverman
was very productive at WMU and can carve himself out a nice career in the slot.
I would not be surprised to one or both of Kevin Peterson and Taveze Calhoun
make the roster. The Bears draft ranked #23 in the league this year according
to the DFD value board.

ANALYSIS: Outside of their first two
picks, there wasn’t much to like with the Detroit draft. Taylor Decker is the
immediate starter at right tackle, and it wouldn’t surprise me if he supplanted
Riley Reiff on the left side eventually. It would not have been surprising to
see them take A’Shawn Robinson in the first round. Good value to get Haloti
Ngata’s replacement in the 2nd round. Graham Glasgow and Miles
Killebrew are solid players, but both were reaches where they were selected.
Joe Dahl can provide depth at four different line spots. I would be surprised
if Jake Rudock was on the opening day roster. He may be on the practice squad…maybe.
I would not be surprised however if Jay Lee made the opening day 53. I am not
sure why any team would ever draft a long snapper, but here we are. Dwayne
Washington does not look like an upgrade to me over any back they currently
have in camp. The Lions draft ranked #27 in the league this year according to
the DFD value board.

ANALYSIS: Green Bay had a solid
draft going in the first couple of days, but it went south after that. Kenny
Clark is an upgrade up front for them. He has nice pass rushing ability for a
300+pounder. Jason Spriggs is probably the most athletic offensive tackle in
this draft class, and will likely be starting sooner rather than later. Kyler
Fackrell has ability to rush of the edge. Blake Martinez should provide depth
at ILB and special teams help. The Packers draft ranked #22 in the league this
year according to the DFD value board.

ANALYSIS: With Laquon Treadwell, the
Vikings finally have a true #1 WR target for Teddy Bridgewater. Mackenzie
Alexander was a lockdown corner at Clemson, but he never intercepted a single
pass. Willie Beavers will likely have to play guard in the NFL. Kentrell
Brothers is a nice depth pickup, but unless Eric Kendricks leaves/gets hurt, he
likely will not ever start here. Jayron Kearse is a big free safety, who lacks
change of direction. Mike Zimmer likes guys like this, so he will get his
chances. Moritz Boehringer is a great story. He is the first European football
player ever drafted. His game film looks like some bad Alabama high school
football tape, but he tested off the charts. He is a definitely a lottery
ticket type of player. TheVikings draft ranked #6 in the league this year
according to the DFD value board.
