    Alright, back again. This is your chance to predict how the 1st round of the 2017 NFL Draft falls.

    Here are the rules and scoring system:

    1) - 7 points for matching teams who will trade during the draft. Both teams must match. (Example: Correct prediction of Denver trading up from 20 to 11 with New Orleans for example. If you predict Denver moves up but the other team doesn't match, then the 7 points are not added). This is awarded the most points due to the unpredictability of trades. Scoring for players taken will be in addition to the 7 points as stated below. If a team trades down twice in the 1st round, each trade will be taken individually.

    2) - 5 points for matching the draft spot, team and player.

    3) - 3 points for matching the draft spot and player, but not the team. (Example: Chicago trades out of #3, but you predict Jonathan Allen at #3)

    4) - 3 points for matching the draft spot and team via trade, but not the player. (Example: Carolina trades up to #3 and takes Marshawn Lattimore where you predicted Malik Hooker)

    5) - 2 points for matching team and player, but not the draft spot.

    6) - 1 point for each correct player taken in the first round regardless of team and spot.

    Example: You predict Denver trades up with New Orleans to select Ryan Ramzcyk and New Orleans selects Marlon Humphrey. If this happens you would total 19 points. 7 points for getting the trade teams correct, 5 points for getting Denver's player correct and 5 points for getting New Orleans' player correct, and 1 point each for the two players taken in the first round.

    Please list the selections with the team drafting, player, position, school:

    1. Cleveland Browns - Myles Garrett OLB Texas A&M.

    For trades:

    3. *trade* Carolina Panthers - Marshawn Lattimore CB OSU. Just make it obvious its a trade.

    Any questions, just ask and we can discuss a solution.

    Lynch has not counted out taking a QB at number 2, he knows they need one, and I expect him to draft one and it wouldnt surprise me if he drafts Trubisky with his first pick........

    I took Trubisky for the 49ers in our fantasy draft, so I too, think that is a possibility. They need so many players across the board, I don't think they pass on a defensive talent that early though, and they look at the best available at the top of rnd 2 or trade back into the first. They have 11 or 12 picks which they can bundle if they see a QB they like at the end of the first.

    Wow. Looking back on that I'm sure I got literally zero right haha I hope I didn't forget someone in there

    For some reason I think Myles Garrett has pretty much told the Browns that he has no interest in playing for them, so the Browns will try to trade the pick or draft a QB. Just a hunch. San Fran is going to get a stupid price for that 2nd overall if that's the case. They may take the excessive return and get the guy they like anyways in Thomas.

    Browns get a QB and a weapon in Howard. Cincy takes the ultra talented LB with character issues. Baltimore surprises with a RB (considered a WR here). Steelers take a playmaking S hybrid in Peppers (total homer pick because I like him haha)

    @Blitz

    Kinda like this mock. A little different than alot I see but alot of it makes great sense.

    You do have Kevin King going to 2 teams though.

    As my buddy the Drunk GM would say, welcome to the club!

    Also Jonathon Allen is not in my entire 1st round ><. I'll need to take that into account. Definitely need to make some tweaks.

    Plugs him in at pick #30

    Kidding.

    Ok fixed. Still a very odd draft but it looks better now, makes more sense. I'll add notes to it later.

    Hmm but do the Panthers pass on the Top O lineman for the second best RB available??

    Actually gonna switch those. Bengals and Panthers essentially need the same thing. O line and RB. So Panthers choose the top O lineman to protect Cam and Bengals take Christian McCaffery to make us worry a lot about the Bengals in the AFC North. Ok done. No mo tweaking.

    I had the same problem. There are guys that could easily go first round that I didn't have room for... that's the fun of the draft. There's always a guy that falls way further than expected and there's big surprises oog guys going way earlier than "expert projections". I just hope I get a few right haha doubt I will

    1 - Cleveland Browns - Myles Garrett OLB Texas A & M No Brainer.

    2 – Trade! NY Jets Mitchell Trubisky, QB UNC (49ers get 6th pick from the Jets) Jets' failure at finding a quarterback rivals that of the Browns. No longer.

    3- Chicago Bears - Jamal Adams, S, LSU Safest pick in the draft.

    4- Jacksonville Jaguars - Leonard Fournette, RB, LSU Bortles gets another year, and some help.

    5- Tennessee Titans - Marshawn Lattimore, CB, Ohio State LeBeau picks a Buckeye. He gets another one later.

    6- Trade! San Francisco 49ers - Solomon Thomas, DE, Stanford (Jets get 2nd pick from 49ers) This is the guy the 49ers wanted anyway.

    7 - LA Chargers – Mike Williams, WR, Clemson Phillip Rivers is ecstatic.

    8 - Carolina Panthers - Christian McCaffery, RB, Stanford Instant upgrade to the Panther offense.

    9- Cincinnati Bengals - Reuben Foster, ILB, Alabama Seems like their kind of player.

    10 - Buffalo Bills - Marlon Humphrey CB Alabama Had to replace Stephon Gilmore.

    11- New Orleans Saints - Derek Barnett, DE, Tennessee Saints need a pass rush.

    12 – Trade! Houston Texans - Pat Mahomes, QB, Texas Tech (Browns get 25th pick from Texans) Bill O'Brien moves up to get his guy. Browns will still get theirs.

    13 - Arizona Cardinals - John Ross, WR, Washington Tempted to go QB here, but Ross provides another weapon for Carson Palmer.

    14- Philly Eagles – Dalvin Cook, RB, FSU Darren Sproles is old and Ryan Mathews is always hurt.

    15- Trade! Seattle Seahawks - Ryan Ramzcyk, OT, Wisconsin (Colts get 26th pick from Seahawks) Pete Carroll moves up to get the top tackle.

    16- Baltimore Ravens - Corey Davis, WR, Western Michigan Fills the hole left by Steve Smith.

    17- Washington Redskins - Jarrad Davis, ILB, Florida Instantly makes the Redskin defense better.

    18- Tennessee Titans - Malik Hooker, S, Ohio State Titans can't believe Hooker fell this far.

    19 - Tampa Bay Bucs - O.J. Howard, TE, Alabama Tremendous weapon for Jameis Winston.

    20- Denver Broncos – Forrest Lamp, OG, Kentucky Not an exciting pick, but fills a need.

    21- Detroit Lions – Jonathan Allen, DT, Alabama Another Alabama guy slips, and Lions are delighted.

    22- Miami Dolphins – Taco Charlton, DE, Michigan Too good to pass up here.

    23- New York Giants – Garett Bolles, OT, Utah Lots of needs, but Bolles is a safe choice.

    24- Oakland Raiders - Haasan Reddick, ILB, Temple The versatile Reddick makes an already dangerous Raider defense even more explosive.

    25- Trade! Cleveland Browns - Deshaun Watson, QB, Clemson (Texans get 12th pick from Browns) Browns get their QB and more picks.

    26- Trade! Indianapolis Colts - Malik McDowell, DT, Michigan State (Seahawks get 15th pick from Colts) Colts upgrade their defense and add picks in the deal.

    27- Kansas City Chiefs - Zach Cunningham, ILB, Vanderbilt Could have gone QB here, but ILB a position of need.

    28- Dallas Cowboys - Kevin King, CB, Washington Cowboys get the best corner available.

    29- Green Bay Packers - Charles Harris, EDGE, Missouri Torn between CB and Edge; Harris rated higher.

    30 - Pittsburgh Steelers - T.J. Watt, OLB, Wisconsin Could go corner here as well, but Watt offers the athleticism Steelers look for in an OLB prospect.

    31- Trade! Minnesota Vikings - Obi Melifonwu, S, UConn Falcons trade down with Vikings. Minnesota moves up to take who many believe is the best Safety.

    32- New Orleans Saints - Jabrill Peppers, S, Michigan Diluted sample pushed him down, but not out, of the first round.
