The draft’s first overall pick was a bit of a surprise, as the Jacksonville Jaguars selected eighth-ranked Georgia edge rusher Travon Walker – but other teams moved quickly. First-ranked EDGE Aidan Hutchinson went next – and all three of the top edge rushers were gone in the first five picks.
After Walker, other first-round reacters included Ohio State wideout Chris Olave, Texas A&M guard Kenyon Green and Pitt quarterback Kenny Pickett – all of whom were taken eight spots ahead of expectations – and Boston College guard Zion Johnson, who went 12 spots early.
But reaches that size are fairly common. Penn State wideout Jahan Dotson – the 22nd early – along with two other big reaches: The Green Bay Packers taking Georgia linebacker Quay Walker a full round ahead of expectations The New England Patriots select Chattanooga guard Cole Strange 35 picks early.
A few teams – including the Kansas City Chiefs – got some decent value. Team needs aside, Washington cornerback Trent McDuffie (who has Kansas City selected seven spots) after expectation) was actually a bit better than Florida State edge rusher Jermaine Johnson II would have been. (We also now know that the Chiefs have assigned McDuffie a first-round grade – but we can only guess if they did the same for Johnson). The Chiefs also took Purdue defensive end George Karlaftis 10 spots later than expected – as did the Jacksonville Jaguars, who traded back into the first round to get Utah linebacker Devin Lloyd.
But the Baltimore Ravens got the opening round’s best values. With their two selections, they got Notre Dame safety Kyle Hamilton 12 picks later than expected and Iowa center Tyler Linderbaum would have indicated his consensus ranking after 13 picks.
Good values remain available. Going into the second round, the top six players were all expected to go in the first round. It will be interesting to see how long they last. A year ago, Notre Dame linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah was selected to be the final first-round player. Ranked 13th going into the draft, he came off the board with the 52nd pick.
After the trade with the Patriots that moved them from the 29th pick to the 21st pick, the Chiefs now have eight draft picks left.
- Second round (50th overall – from Dolphins)
- Second round (62nd overall)
- Third round (103rd overall – special comp pick)
- Fourth round (135th overall)
- Seventh round (233rd overall – from Vikings)
- Seventh round (243rd overall – from Raiders through Patriots)
- Seventh round (251st overall)
- Seventh round (259th overall – regular comp pick)
Enjoy the second and third rounds on Friday night – and we’ll be back with an updated consensus ranking on Saturday morning.
