99% chance the Raiders start things off with doing what we all want them to do. Less than a 1% chance they trade the pick? Yep. There will be some interesting trades in the first round, including a possibility our new management trades up into the first round using the "extra" picks we have this year. But, I am expecting an evening of observing and anticipating rounds 2 & 3 tomorrow night.

Enjoy one of the best sports events of the year -- the NFL draft.

Yeah but Chiefs just traded up to 6 so I'm glad Love is off the board.

Browns got fleeced on that trade.

I just had a mock draft up with KC taking this DB with the 9th pick. They must have decided that he would not last and they really wanted him. For what's it's worth, Mel Kiper had him at the 14th best player in the draft. If that was true, the Chiefs went for need (as well as a very good cover man).

OH THANK GOD!! Was pissed the Browns didn't even take their 2nd rounder from the CHifs. But they took Delane over Tyson & Bain. So, coulda been worse. Delane is really good too but, Bain is the best DE in this draft & Tyson is the best WR. Thankfully they didn't take either of them. Or Styles

Tell me!

Another sweetheart deal. They get a 3rd rounder out of it. What a joke!

Chiefs made a desperation pick of need. Overdrafted Mansoor at 6

Capital to move up may be less this year given the draft profile

Yes but, Browns should have still made them pay up with their 2nd rounder.

In 2026, I'm not taking a CB in the top 10 unless they are Revis.
