1. Giants: Pick - QB Andrew Horton, Boise State
"Alright, the Giants have officially hit reset at quarterback. The Danny Dimes era is over, and they’re taking a new shot with Andrew Horton out of Boise State. It’s time to take the reins and move in a fresh direction."
2. Panthers: Pick - QB Rob Karl
"Next up, the Panthers are looking for stability after bouncing between Young, Fields, and Killings. Rob Karl is their guy for the future — and with three top-tier QBs available, they're not waiting to lock down the one they think fits best."
3. Seahawks: Pick - LT Jake Johnson
"Seattle’s got Zach Underwood ready to take the starting spot at quarterback, so what’s next? Protection. With Jake Johnson locking down the left side, Underwood’s life just got a little easier."
4. Bears: Pick - FS Nate Hargrove
"A bit of a surprise here with Hargrove this high, but the Bears need some serious help in the secondary. He’s a mid-first-round talent, but the Bears aren’t waiting around to plug that safety position."
5. Cowboys: Pick - QB Nate Hardy
"Dallas makes a splash, taking Nate Hardy to end the Dak Prescott era. Watson didn’t pan out, so it’s clear they’re looking for a young quarterback to groom for the future. And they knew they had to jump ahead of Pittsburgh to grab one of the top three QBs left."
6. Chiefs: Pick - CB Darnell Dorsey
"A rare high pick for Kansas City! They don’t have any glaring needs, but they opt to solidify their secondary with Darnell Dorsey. Adding another corner should round out this defense nicely."
7. 49ers: Pick - QB Marco Heath
"The 49ers are moving on from Dion Bullocks, despite his potential. Marco Heath out of Syracuse is the next option. He’s the fourth-best QB in a top-heavy class, so it’ll be interesting to see how they develop him."
8. Rams: Pick - WR Edward Davis
"Time for some speed! The Rams take Edward Davis to pair up with Puka Nacua. Davis has game-breaking speed, and he’s sure to make some defensive backs sweat."
9. Colts: Pick - DT Chuck Ancrum
"With Buckner hitting his early 30s, the Colts take Chuck Ancrum to reinforce the defensive line. He’s the young DT they need as they look for future stability up front."
10. Steelers: Pick - CB Marion Wilcox
"Steelers fans were hoping for a QB, but all the top prospects are already off the board. They turn to defense and grab Marion Wilcox to add depth and skill to their secondary."
11. Texans: Pick - DE Mike Elliot
"The Texans go edge with Mike Elliot, pairing him with Will Anderson to shore up both sides of the defensive line. With back-to-back picks, they’re setting the stage for a solid defense."
12. Texans: Pick - WR Frank Combs
"After grabbing an edge rusher, the Texans add a 6'5" weapon to their receiving corps in Frank Combs. He’ll bring some height and physicality to their speed-based receiver group."
13. Falcons: Pick - MLB Tevin Cooke
"The Falcons need a boost against the run, and they go with Cooke at middle linebacker. They’ve got an okay front four, but Cooke’s athleticism and instincts should help improve that defense."
14. Chargers: Pick - FS Connor Bowie
"For a user who loves to control the secondary, Bowie gives the Chargers a new safety to line up with Derwin James. Whether it’s a slot corner or safety, they were looking to add to the secondary."
15. Steelers: Pick - WR Cortez Graham
"Back on the board, Pittsburgh rounds out their receiving corps with Cortez Graham. Their quarterback search may wait another year, but Graham gives whoever’s under center a new target."
16. Vikings: Pick - HB Craig McNeal
"Needing a second punch to complement J.K. Dobbins, Minnesota takes the shifty back out of Oklahoma. McNeal will bring some versatility to their backfield."
17. Buccaneers: Pick - DE Deon Layman
"The Bucs have a clear need at defensive end, and Layman is their guy. They’re hoping he can start right away and bring some pressure to their defensive line."
18. Browns: Pick - HB Frank McMahon
"Chubb is nearing the twilight of his career, so the Browns bring in a young running back in McMahon. Their is a young 2nd year HB on the roster, but they'll be hoping he’ll develop as the new feature back."
19. Bengals: Pick - OG Gordon Crawford
"The Bengals bolster their offensive line with the agile Crawford, who may be a bit undersized but has the quickness to protect Burrow and boost their run game."
20. Cardinals: Pick - DT Junior McDowell
"Arizona looks to shore up their interior with McDowell, an enormous DT from NC State. He’ll add some much-needed weight and strength up front."
21. Bengals: Pick - DE Shaq Lindsey
"With fewer fits at tight end, Cincinnati opts for a pass rusher instead. Lindsey should add depth and some big-play potential on the defensive line."
22. Vikings: Pick - CB Shyheim Beasley
"Vikings make another strong pick, adding Beasley as their third starting corner. In Madden, you need three starting-caliber corners, and the Vikings get theirs here."
23. Jaguars: Pick - LB Felix Peoples
"The Jaguars have some gaps to address, and they go with Peoples, an off-ball linebacker with power and intensity. He’ll be a strong addition to their defense."
24. 49ers: Pick - DE Sheldon Baldwin
"Pairing Bosa with Baldwin on the D-line would make any offense nervous. Baldwin brings versatility to San Fran’s 4-3 scheme, and together, these two could be a nightmare for QBs."
25. Saints: Pick - TE Dakota Knapp
"The first tight end of the draft! The Saints take Knapp, knowing it’s a weak TE class, but they’ll get the best of the bunch."
26. Eagles: Pick - C Derek Verdon
"Eagles have no one at center right now, so they secure Verdon as a foundational piece in the trenches."
27. Browns: Pick - C Ben Solano
"Protecting their young quarterback is the priority for Cleveland. Solano adds strength and skill to the line."
28. Bills: Pick - EDGE Peter Trenkle (Peter Tinkle. hehehehe)
"Buffalo is looking to replace Von Miller’s production, and they bring in Trenkle, a power rusher from Ohio State, to step into the edge role."
29. Eagles: Pick - DE Tyrone Massey
"Philadelphia had trouble against the run last season. With Massey, they aim to shore up the line and improve their rush defense."
30. Ravens: Pick - DE Marquise Gay
"The Ravens take a chance on Gay, hoping he’s a big hit on their defensive line and brings some spark."
31. Bills: Pick - LT Jerry Mims
"Mims will step in and start on the right side to protect Josh Allen, giving Buffalo a long-term piece on the offensive line."
32. Dolphins: Pick - CB Bryce Sherrod
"Miami looks to rebuild their cornerback group after Jalen Ramsey’s departure. Sherrod gives them a new face in the secondary, ready to contribute right away."
