NFL mock draft: How league insiders expect top 10 picks to unfold: Will Jags take Jeanty?
The first four picks of the NFL Draft feel somewhat predictable. Where things will get interesting is at No. 5 with the Jaguars.

The Giants have to determine soon whether they’ll exercise his fifth-year option. One executive estimated the Giants could move Thibodeaux for a third-round pick if he’s not in their long-term plans.

Why do people keep saying this? Who is Pittsburgh trading up to get ahead of? Don’t think they even have a 2nd pick too

If this is real, seems like a no-brainer.
Poles will draft a bum with that 3rd rounder anyways.

I’ll take that trade over the next Velus or damaged goods Poles would draft.

Colts and Seahawks. If one jumps up then maybe they get an itchy trigger finger.

Right nobody wants the QBs ahead of them and nobody is going trade above them. If anything teams will trade into the late 1st to grab one of them after the Steelers pass.

For sure, I don’t disagree. I think he will be a good football player…am I sold on him being elite/blue chipper? Not necessarily, but he’s a relatively safe pick.

The Colts should take Sanders but I’ll be surprised if they do.

I agree with this, except I’m not as high on Harmon as some others.
It’s instinct more than anything, but I don’t think Graham will be as impactful a pro player as most believe.
I think Grant and Nolen are the 2 best DL in this draft class.

If Schoen and Daboll feel the pressure, it makes a lot of sense to me to turn Kayvon into another player. If they get a 3rd rounder for him, that pick can even be packaged to move up for a QB, if that's what they want to do. If the Bears gave 72, they'd be able to pair it with their 2nd to move up to around 23 to take a QB. They have their own 3rd too, but this all just gives more flexibility. Walk away with Carter and Sanders and fans will be pretty happy.

The Colts should fire their GM and their owner should check into rehab but I digress

Nolen is super talented but there are some character/work ethic concerns there. That always bothers me but this staff might be able to get the most from him. Definitely would not take him at 10 though.

I don't buy anything that says the Saints are drafting a QB. They are on the March for Arch.

A defender at that selection would not be expected to outperform Thibodeaux, at least not in the short term.
I'd take that in a heartbeat

It’s pounding the table to cover all bases season on good ole X! All it takes is $6.99 a month and you too can be an insider!

That's the opposite logic I would think.
IF they are feeling the pressure, they need produce now. Trading a player like Kayvon removes production from the current team and invests in the future that Schoen and Daboll don't have (bc they are under pressure).

The problem is this is the logic that led the bears to trading the exact pick that turned into Cooper DeJean for Montez Sweat and thirty-second overall for Chase Claypool.
If you have so little faith in your draft process that you’re just assuming every pick after the first round or two is just going to be a bust—and that’s its just better to trade those picks away for aging (expensive) vets—then you’re just never gonna make it. The organization isn’t going to be successful. You will just wallow until you get new people in charge.
