A bit of a play on what Direkshun put together the past couple of seasons. I'll reserve the round grading, especially as of now. I'll keep adding to this as I progress through.

I haven't really started ranking guys yet, but he's a top 6-8 WR in all probability and those usually run out around that 35-50 range.
I don't feel like we can get him 'mid-round' -- that's going to have to be early day 2, IMO.
I'd agree. This WR class really weakens after the top 3 (McMillan, Burden, Egbuka, 4 if a team wants Hunter at WR rather than CB). Golden could be that next guy. I think he's better than his teammate Bond, who I've seen get 1st round grades in some places. If a team can get over his drops and history of little injuries, he's really explosive with solid size. I think Bleacher Report might be onto something with their comp to Aiyuk. Golden could get hot and end up in a similar draft position. [Reply]
This is an awesome thread. Great work here, and its not just the big name early round talent. Love it!
I'd love to continue to add to the WR room but with team needs and what this draft class has to offer its hard do do that with your first three picks. [Reply]

Me too actually. Good power, decent speed, I think OK vision and a good zone guy. Suspect we'd be able to get him later than Henderson and i really wouldn't mind that. [Reply]
I really like Xavier Watts. Was really impressed by that guy last night too.
He’s an excellent ball hawk back there with size and physicality. He probably goes mid 2nd rd but if he fell neat 64 I would be clenching my teeth at the thought of passing on him if I was Veach. [Reply]

Judkins is one of the dudes I want the Chiefs to draft [Reply]
Yeah I'd love to bolster that DT position, or DE really. I like Alfred Collins as a late 2nd, early 3rd pick, Derrick Harmon maybe a little later but not far off. And one guy I'm intrigued by is Darius Alexander from Toledo as a late round guy. [Reply]

While the LT situation looms over any selection early in this draft, I don't know how you look at the talent available here and not say I need to come out of this with a stud DT, especially where the Chiefs will be drafting. Same with running back, these are two positions where I think you can vastly improve the talent on the roster and good prospects should be there when we pick in the first three rounds.
Again, LT is a headache. But there is no need to freak out over WR, DE, CB (positions that need to be addressed, but not urgent) [Reply]
