The Washington Redskins(@ZachHicks2):
1st: Mackensie Alexander, CB, Clemson
2nd: Kentrell Brothers, ILB, Missouri
3rd: Maliek Collins, DL, Nebraska
4th: Kevin Byard, S, MTSU
4th: Charone Peake, WR, Clemson

I liked the Brothers and Collins picks, both are great value for where they take him. I’m puzzled by 2 things: 1-the Alexander pick in round 1. With Culliver and Breeland, taking another young corner seems like a total waste when the Redskins have much bigger needs on the defense. 2-No quarterback to develop. With an uncertain future for Kirk Cousins in DC, that 2nd or 3rd round pick probably should to be a passer to groom either behind Cousins in 2016 or behind Colt McCoy.

The Tennessee Titans(@CallowayBrady_):
1st: Joey Bosa, DL OSU
2nd: Derrick Henry, RB Alabama
3rd: Braxton Miller, WR OSU
4th: Scooby Wright III, LB Arizona

I love the Bosa and Henry picks on sheer talent and need. Both are day 1 starters if they’re not busts and represent the best player available with both picks. I even understand the Miller pick, but after a few notable wideout draft busts who were all developmental prospects that flamed out and with Dorian Green-Beckham needing a more ready to start prospect with him, this pick seems odd to me. Scooby Wright is a player I’m a fan of, but not for their defense.

The Minnesota Vikings(@JoshMenschNFL):
1st: Darian Thompson, DB Boise St.
2nd: Tyler Boyd, WR Pittsburgh
3rd: Javon Hargrave, DL SC State
4th: Graham Glasgow, OL Michigan

Im a big fan of Thompson and especially Boyd. Both would contribute quickly for the Vikes. But the Vikes’ offensive line situation is so dire that passing on Shon Coleman or Cody Whitehair for Thompson just can’t be defended in my opinion.
