NFL Draft predictions

Certain teams hold more intrigue than others as the first round of the draft looms. The Arizona Cardinals hold the first overall pick and are expected to select Heisman Trophy winning quarterback Kyler Murray, who only stands 5'10" but is an exceptional athlete. This would come only one year after the Cardinals spent a top-10 pick on quarterback Josh Rosen, who will be looking to find a new home this week if the Cardinals do go forward with selecting Murray.

The New York Giants hold the No. 6 and No. 17 overall picks, and embattled G.M. Dave Gettleman could choose to go a variety of routes with these early options by either picking his quarterback of the future and replacing Odell Beckham Jr. at wide receiver, or simply building up the defense by selecting lineman, edge rushers or linebackers at those spots. The Oakland Raiders hold three first round picks — No. 4, No. 24. and No. 27 — and head coach Jon Gruden could add as many as three top-flight playmakers to a defense that hasn't been the same since Khalil Mack was traded last summer.
