to Underdog they're going to be doing some crazy deals including boosting the free bonus cash all the way up to up to ,000 from $250 which is nuts so uh take advantage of that I don't know how long it's going to be here they have you know fluctuated their terms before and this is probably the best I've ever seen so use that link it'll end up putting my code in for you you don't have to put any of that work in there and enjoy it they have NCAA season bets even MLB UFC it's pretty sick so let's get right into this though because I want to get to the gym and lift that's why I end up looking like goat house today so if you guys were wondering why I end up looking like a damn hobo your boy wants to get a nice little try day in it's not just triceps we all know that you can't overload one position or one one uh muscle group and round number one though is this going to be two rounds or something if it is then we're still going through this is a live reaction um Carson back number one overall I mean this is the 2022 quarterback class in my opinion pretty much all over again in terms of you know we're going to be hyper inflating the value of these quarterbacks comparatively to last year's class Beck would have been probably a best quarterback six or seven so not really the number one overall pick in my opinion but I still Some solid Talent there I mean six or seven is still a very good class and uh for a group of guys who ended up you know I think what was Five Guys in the first round so you know he is somebody who I think should be a fringe one and at number one overall different standard but the Giants need a QB so I'd be more on the Connor wigman route even though Connor wigman is graded lower than backck it's also because of Health uh but Mason Graham is pick number two a defensive interior to me just unless you really are in that Quinn and Williams in that Aaron Donald I know there I mean there's still a tear gap between those two but you know we're talking about the upper echelon of guys Jaylen Carter um that's where you should be considered in the top three to five I don't see Mason Graham is that but I really hope that he ends up developing to be that type of player again I'm looking at what the players are now and praying that they end up getting better and Mason Graham I could easily see doing that of course new defensive coordinator we'll see what happens uh pick number three you got Kelvin Banks to the Panthers so one of the first mocks I've seen where the Panthers are not the number one overall team so at least there's that that's cool um I assume there was a trade so yeah there's a mock trade right here they didn't even really make it very obvious but I mean who gives this I mean they're trading up even worse for a quarterback that wouldn't have been taken anytime else but you know we'll leave that comment there uh Kelvin Banks you know it could be theoretically at the offensive line iky kuu just cannot play left tackle Kelvin BS I don't have much more confidence in him than I did iy coming out so I'll leave it at that point but you know Kelvin Banks Jr still is going to be a very veteran very talented left tackle with some guard potential based on the fact he 64 at pick number four Will Campbell is a part of a tradeback as well uh for the Patriots I think that's a phenomenal move it's a move that I just made I ended up putting out my own mock draft with Trad so feel free to check that out at pick number five Mel Williams going to the Tennessee Titans uh you can definitely tell with like where certain teams see there are like lacks of depth and their overall weakness based on some of the positions they're releasing versus actually trying to pick up on the waiver wire uh if you guys wanted to see a video about that I debated it but to be honest there's so many moves that are not representative of the waiver wire like who gives a like you guys can end up reading that in 20 seconds and understanding it versus a thousand players getting released I think uh it was a little bit more important for me to do that video but regardless the Titans did look to have a focus at Edge rusher and it does look like Mel Williams could be right up their alley very athletic great build uh he's he was really talented there in high school as well hoping that he ends up polishing throughout the year will Johnson ends up being the sixth overall pick to the Washington commanders pairing him up there with Mike Samer still like I'm man I mean why why not I I wish people mentioned the fact when they put will Johnson with Mike Sanders still that they're putting him back together like that's the coolest story line who gives a that will Johnson's the best player it's still a fun storyline uh but regardless will Johnson to me is comp to an alien he really is the best player I've probably ever studied James Pierce is pick number seven for the Arizona Cardinals you know as he's a Twitchy Edge rusher who needs to still polish up his game I do think he's better than Mel Williams I'll just say that um so people think I don't like James Pierce I mean it's Mel Williams I'm probably far lower on than anybody but James Pierce is somebody who I am just more realistic I he's my 32nd overall player I do like what he brings to the table however I'm also very realistic with the fact that you know he is still very very much polishing his game hello so James Pierce I just don't know if he is going to at that frame you're starting to get really thin at Edge rusher but but it's going to be hard to get much worse so it's like you know for me I'd be going Nick scouton in a heartbeat but I also understand you know you just got daryus Robinson do you want another guy who's around 280 that's going to be a question you'd have to answer at pick eight there's shadur Sanders um going to the Saints y'all just know me I'm not high on Sanders like it is what it is some dumbass really wanted to pull the racist card like please like just check yourself before you wreck yourself bro I mean people who try to pull that card are absolute dumb asses and you know it just reminds us to appreciate those in our lives that are not dumb asses so shadur Sanders it's okay for me to have an opinion that I just am not a super huge fan and it's not like I don't like shadur Sanders there's just a difference I continue bring this up with Carson Beck as well who I do like like when you're talking about somebody being a franchise level quarterback which is usually what a top 10 pick is supposed to be there's a different standard compared to are you a solid quarterback which he is like he is a solid quarterback is he a top 15 quarterback in the NFL that's something you have to ask yourself CU those are the franchise style quarterbacks if you're below that you're most likely still in the question as to whether you should be even on the team if a better opportunity arises so again that's why like people think that my hate for shadur Sanders like my hate is um blown out of proportion it's not it just really is based on the reference of the frame that we're putting them in when we're putting him as a top 10 pick and I could go on for days about Carson Beck as well like again there's just idiots in this world who like to pull a race card because they have nothing better to say and you know if you really feel the need to try to knock others down by trying to make up lies like that um there's a lot of people who study psychology who would love for you to help like help them out and just go and you know sit down and have a good conversation with them they're called shrinks therapists so if you're somebody who likes to drop the racist car get some help it's okay we all go through uh pick number nine we got the Buccaneers going Travis Hunter You Know Travis Hunter super high IQ so oh oh interesting you know it is what it is man uh Travis Hunter super high IQ I Am Lower on him than some other people but that's just because of the fact that I fell in love with a lot of other players I think Travis Hunter as his Zone coverage corner is going to be crem delaem and that is going to be very scheme dependent so I think he's a little athletically limited has a hard time dealing with as well at the receiver position but I do think he's a better Corner than he is receiver and I still think he is a starting quality Corner in the NFL then we got Malachi Starks at pick number 10 to the Vikings uh definitely with Harrison Smith not being there for much more of the foreseeable future it's um it's not a pick that's ideal but it certainly is a nice curveball you know it's pretty much at this point you put defensive interior or a corner which is logical so I think that's perfectly fine but you know safety is not a position that is fully built up for the future you don't even have LS seen there anymore he's on the Jets practice squad right so you can't even say you're developing legitimate Talent at the rate that you were so I do think this is a interesting curveball and certainly interesting and I do believe that it is something that theoretically if the Vikings have guys that they really like down the board they can easily exercise this option donon Walker is the 11th pick going to the Seattle Seahawks I just don't see them going backto back like first round defensive Interiors when they have Leonard Williams as well it just doesn't seem to make very much sense for me I think that maybe you can go after a top tier Edge rusher if you wanted to but I think boundary Corner one of those things that if you have the right value like Ben Morrison I do think you could exercise it as well quarterback if you're the number 11th pick probably is going to be a position you lean offensive tackle AB Lucas probably going to be dunzo if he can't get healthy and then you know even left tackle theoretically uh this is a class where you can take a swing at offensive tackle so there is certainly positions that I think I would prefer to go after than defensive interior at Pick 12 this is the dream the dream scenario you keep Ben Morrison there in Indiana went to Notre Dame so I'd be a big fan of this one absolutely pick number 13 you got cam Ward to the Raiders uh cam ward has some of the highest level tape that you'll ever watch and he also has some of the lowest so the question is will he be able to get and regress back towards the mean or maybe even skew towards the positive plays I would really hope so I really do I love cam W and I love what he brings to the game he's exciting he has those flashes that just make you really believe but is this another Malik Willis tale where you know the processing just doesn't get there because you know I mean with Malik he seems to he freezes cam doesn't freeze he just makes the wrong read so maybe we won't have like an apple to Apples scenario there but the lack of a consistent processor is what will get you benched in the NFL because that's what you need you need to be able to at least process the game which for those of y'all who think I hate shadur I continuously say that shadur is the best processor in the class there're just other factors and I'm not even talking about the things that I bring up I'm talking about the fact he's not an elite athlete doesn't have an elite arm and that's okay like not everybody on Earth is going to have an elite arm but it is something that could cap some ceiling cam Ward is someone who has an elite arm and is an elite athlete but kind of lacks it's kind of the antithesis of shadur Sanders for that Mark so certainly interesting I do think the Raiders if Cam Ward can regress towards the positive or progress towards the positive excuse me uh then I think that this could certainly be a upgradeable move uh it's certainly somebody in the second or third round I'd be taking a swing on for the Raiders if they don't find their guy in round number one jonasa and right tackle out of Arizona is the selection for the Jaguars at 14 I think that it's a bit too early for Jonah I'm going to continue pounding the table for that he's super new super green so we'll see what happens but at the same time I mean I do love the idea of investing the offensive line I just don't really think that Jonah Jonah doesn't bring much more in my opinion than Javon Foster brought and Javon was if I'm not mistaken a late third or a fourth round pick and Jonah right now we're talking as a 14th over pick not saying that's where Jonah should go I think that both of them should have been a little bit taken closer to the 75 to 100 range and I think Jonah should be taken at the higher much higher end of that range than um Javon Foster who had more experience but regardless Jonah is not a number 14 overall player to me just yet T-Mac Teto McMillan goes to the Steelers at 15 our receiving core is actually pretty damn buns you know we have George Pickins and then we're kind of being hopeful with Roman Wilson as well as Calvin Austin but besides that it's actually pretty damn depressing I'll just say this right now though tmac has a bit of an overlap in his role with George Pickins like George Pickins I feel like brings the assets that Tetro McMillan has and maybe a little bit more uh but Teta just has a couple inches in height so I think Teto could be a big impact player on certain rosters this just I mean I feel like he still could but I'm saying that his role his impact would be more so minimized um it's not like he'd be a bad player but I'm just saying what he could be would be certainly capped on the Steelers rep comparatively to some other teams like the Lions I've mentioned before Abdul Carter is the 16th pick to the Bears a super high sealing player but you know we'll see when he ends up playing full year Edge he did not do too well as a linebacker he was actually pretty good in zone Comfort though I did appreciate that about him but you know to me Abdul Carter actually fits a Vic f iio system because of the fact that he's a good athlete um you know you could talk about like jayx hunt for example who has you know 250 pounds on him former safety uh transitioning to Edge rusher like really good athlete who can cover as well I think that's kind of what Vic was wanting there in the third round so for the Eagles I could see Abdul Carter and then Penn State we're starting to see a little bit of a trend there as well um I could see it happening but in the first round man like there needs to be a lot of prog ression we're talking about him going higher than you know last year with chop Robinson and chop Robinson went higher than I think he probably should have so again we're talking about reference frames here I think Abdul Carter is a good Edge rusher and like I have him higher than most people I know in terms of my rank of him but you know the people who are making mock drafts seem to be pushing this narrative and I think it will be dying off in the near future uh Quin Ys a 17 I agree with quarterback is an idea for the Browns the fact they kept four quarterbacks on roster and I think they're making a quarterback move um today or tomorrow like it it shows that they're trying to have some contingency plans in place but to me Quin Ys isn't a first round pick to me he's in that later day two range to where you know you could test out some things with Quinn and it's just the Deep ball is too inconsistent for me I need a quarterback to be able to make those Splash plays consistently or relatively consistently right you can't like the deeper the pass it's not very many quarterbacks are going to be able to be pinpoint every single time I get that there's a far higher margin of error when you're throwing 45 yards and having to hit it into a 1- foot box and if you're throwing at closer range but uh Quinn ERS I think that he gets himself out of rhythm I do like the fact that he can be in Rhythm and when he's in Rhythm he's very Dynamic within 15 yards but again there needs to be a better balance to his game I think in terms of that long ball being more effective at 18 Luther buron gets selected to the Chargers you're going to have to him on the boundary I don't know if he even gets a th000 yards receiving this year you might want to watch out for that right now based on uh Underdog which again feel free to use the link get yourself up to a th bonus cash on your boy uh you can end up putting the BET and I think it's like 1,50 yards is higher or lower and you know it's it's something where you got to think if a receiver doesn't get over a th000 yards are they going to be a legitimate Contender for the first round I think Luther is one of those guys who can break that rule but at the same time like let's not act like he's going to be a stat patter the entire year I do think that there's going to be some a little bit of a mixup in terms of roles with lad makoni who's going to be that primary slot I'd want Luther Burton to be almost a combination of like basically a better version of Malachi Corley I think is the vision for Luther burden and we'll see what happens uh but I just think they're it's just not the type of guy who I want on the boundary to me I really want him be a better version of Malik Kai Corley Harold Perkins then goes to the Falcons I guess you're going to be using him as an edge rusher it's going to be interesting to see how he's deployed but you are getting yourself a Swiss army knife who just needs to add some more size the Rams getting Connor wigman is perfect to me I think that if they can end up Landing Conor wigman I think that McVey stays and will stay maybe for another five plus years because Conor wigman has the highest ceiling out of the quarterbacks in the class if he can stay healthy Denzel Burke for the Dolphins at 21 solid move Mr do it all very very well I have no concerns with him at all at 21 or excuse me at 22 the Cowboys go emry Jones I don't do they need a right tackle after this year I don't think they do uh so I guess you could try to move him into guard if Zach Martin doesn't want to stay for the long run that would be the only case where I could see this being logical you know receiver certainly is something you should be looking at at Noah Brown didn't even come to the squad he ended up going to the commanders which is a big surprise to me but I digress I think Emory Jones if Zack Martin says hey I'm G to hang up my cleats like we didn't make a good push into the playoffs then it's a very smart move because I think he could step in right away and have a Tyler Smith esque impact but um I do think it's a bit of an oversight there AAA I really hope he bounces back just was not himself last year in terms of injuries but you know unfortunately injuries and availability are the best stability right so or lack of injuries I should have said but I do think Uka when fully healthy does have the potential to be something special uh but don't try to act like he is going to be a slot weapon like his worst year his most banged up year was when he played in the slot his best year which this might not be a good sign was when he had Marvin Harrison Jr as well as Jackson Smith and jiga being able to play next to him that's where was able to thrive the most Siobhan Ravel is pick number 24 for the Green Bay Packers Corner out of Eastern Carolina uh he's a really solid athlete he ended up grading out as my corner 14 he's just like he's very well built I do like that about his game so we'll see what happens with him uh because he could be someone who does end up going into this range shout out to broso for talking about him but you know definitely somebody to keep your eye out on at 25 you got Ty Williams going to the jet I don't really see defensive interior being the biggest first round need but this is a good note here Javon kinla Solomon Thomas um both in the final year of their contracts not like that's going to be like it's like o shiver me timbers like no no but at the same time you know uh you could be looking for some extra rotation there on the defensive interior so I do not fully shame it Nick scaron goes at pick number 26 I love Nick you know I'll say it my number four player in the class I mean I think that this dude's going to be dynamite and he's going to fall to this range because of the fact that Texas A&M just doesn't really allow their Defenders to truly be themselves in my opinion so you know we'll leave it there but for the Bengals to get another Edge rusher who has this exact same frame as miles Murphy who and Miles Murphy was my number one player coming into that year um it scares the out of me I'm just going to be honest they have not shown the ability to develop top end Edge Talent they've been really good at developing you know more so the underrated Edge Talent which is uh interesting to say the least JT tumala is at pick number 27 for the Texans I don't really think Edge rusher is going to be position they're going to be looking at very early at all I think that the smartest move for this team would either to be retooling with a a better defensive interior or even a linebacker at this point Tyler Booker goes to the Eagles at 28 I mean if you do think about it you know there's I'm pretty sure that maai becton's gone after this year you certainly could be in the market if Tyler's team doesn't work out for an upgraded offensive line and Tyler Booker's awesome for me it would be in a heartbeat over Tyler Booker who I have noticeably higher uh Jaden Roberts because he's a Right Guard who has right tackle potential I'd be preferring to go after that uh Landon Jackson is the pick at 29 for the Lions I just think that he is um he's not worth it at pick 29 he's a fun player but it's very rare that you'll see someone of this Frame and overall size be able to really make it in the NFL and I don't think his talent can overmatch those concerns but I do like the idea of an edge at pick 30 you got quinon Judkins going to the Ravens uh there's just too many running backs in the Ravens right now man uh to take a first round running back there's just it doesn't make very much sense and I love quinon you guys know this he is somebody who I had ranked fairly highly and it's just he was an cluster really good running backs at pick 31 Coulson lovelin goes to the ners it's a perfect pick I would say maybe theoretically if you can wait till the second round it end up getting Mitchell Evans uh who's coming off a leg injury then I do think that would be a smarter move because I think he's a better blocker but cson Lins a fantastic receiving tight end who can block as well and then at 32 Kansas City goes Danny stutzman linebacker at Oklahoma I doubt they'll be targeting linebacker because if they really thought that linebacker was a primary focus of theirs they would not have gotten rid of Curtis Jacobs who actually had some really good flashes so I feel like they're pretty damn comfortable even with their dep so that is going to be the video it turns out there is not a second round thank you so much for watching I love you all see you on the far side peace
