the previous wednesday New York Jets NFL General Manager ( Miami Dolphin Front Office Executive) Mike Tannenbaum to publish ESPN dummy projectto make it clear that he was taking a different approach than some other analysts.
I’ll leave the actual first-round predictions to my colleagues. This is not what I expect or hear. Instead, what follows is how to pick each first round if I represent each of the 24 teams with at least one pick on the first day. It’s based on my own ratings and preferences, along with what I think makes the most sense for each team on the board.
Using this approach, many of the same faces appeared in Tannenbaum’s first-round selections – although some ended up in different locations than we normally see. to me Kansas City ChiefsTannenbaum chose a wide receiver and defensive end.
29. Kansas City Chiefs WR Jameson Williams, Alabama
Exchange Chiefs Tyrick Hill. Now they have the opportunity to use one of the picks that came to Kansas City in exchange for crafting his replacement. Williams tore his ACL and won’t be ready for week one, but his blast and pace make him the perfect pick for the Chiefs. I was really impressed with Williams playing in the SEC, when he had seven captures for 184 yards and two touchdowns.
30. Kansas City Chiefs DE Arnold Ebiketie, Penn State
Turning to defense, I want to have productive momentum. Only three teams had fewer sacks than 31 in 2021, but Ebiketie scored 9.5 sacks at Penn State last season after moving from Temple.
Just like Bucky Brooks makes fun of us Covered on WednesdayWe see an analyst moving in to replace wide receiver Tyreek Hill in the first round – but unlike Brooks, he’s using Kansas City’s other option to take a defensive end rather than safety. Also, unlike Brooks, he goes with Large scale of high level school – And if he is injured, he may keep him off the field for at least part of the next season. Interestingly enough, edge-of-the-box like George Karlavitis of Purdue and Boy Maffei of Minnesota were still available when Tannenbaum sent Ebiketie to Kansas City. However, he is not alone in this ruling. Former Nittany Lion was parodied to the Chiefs in two other recent first-round predictions.
