Kiper's 2018 Big Board/Top 10 Rankings

[boozeman]

Payne higher than Vea? Get out of my face with that shit.

They aren't even close IMO. Payne gets lost and plays too high. He did have a fine postseason, but still.

[boozeman]

Kiper really likes Lasley. And sometimes Kiper does this thing where he evaluates based purely on talent without taking into consideration attitude and off the field issues. I really like the way Lasley plays at WR. But I also have no idea what those other issues are and they are clearly knocking the guy way down on other people's boards.

He really likes him. Suddenly.

A month and a half ago, he wasn't even in his top 10. Then he jumps to four a month ago. Now he is second.

His agent's check must have cleared.

Yeah I can't really explain the massive jump. Other than what you said. Or he finally got around to watching film.

Kid has a hella good highlights reel.

Kid has a hella good highlights reel.

Yeah I've always been a big fan.

1. Cleveland Browns - Josh Allen QB Wyoming
2. New York Giants - Saquon Barkley RB Penn St.
3. Indianapolis Colts - Bradley Chubb DE North Carolina St.
4. Cleveland Browns (Houston) - Minkah Fitzpatrick DB Alabama
5. Denver Broncos - Sam Darnold QB USC
6. New York Jets - Baker Mayfield QB Oklahoma
7. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Quenton Nelson G Notre Dame
8. Chicago Bears - Tremaine Edmunds LB Virginia Tech
9. San Francisco 49ers - Denzel Ward CB Ohio St.
10. Oakland Raiders - Roquan Smith LB Georgia
11. Miami Dolphins - Josh Rosen QB UCLA
12. Cincinnati Bengals - Kolton Miller T UCLA
13. Washington Redskins - Vita Vea DT Washington
14. Green Bay Packers - Marcus Davenport DE UTSA
15. Arizona Cardinals - Calvin Ridley WR Alabama
16. Baltimore Ravens - Orlando Brown T Oklahoma
17. Los Angeles Chargers - Da'Ron Payne DT Alabama
18. Seattle Seahawks - Derwin James S Florida State

19. Dallas Cowboys - Rashaan Evans LB Alabama
I almost went with a tight end here, as South Carolina's

Hayden Hurst

reminds me of a young Jason Witten, who can't play forever. But middle linebacker is another need, especially if Dallas can't retain free agent

Anthony Hitchens

, and Evans could play there or be insurance for

Sean Lee

, who will be 32 when the 2018 season begins and has struggled with injuries in his career. Evans had 15 sacks at Alabama and is a threat as a pass-rusher on third down. He's smart and battle-tested after playing under Nick Saban. I really like this pick for the Cowboys.

20. Detroit Lions - Derrius Guice RB LSU
21. Buffalo Bills - Mike Hughes CB UCF
22. Buffalo Bills (Kansas City) - James Daniels C/G Iowa
23. Los Angeles Rams - Josh Jackson CB Iowa
24. Carolina Panthers - James Washington WR Oklahoma St.
25. Tennessee Titans - Ronald Jones RB USC
26. Atlanta Falcons - Isaiah Wynn G Georgia
27. New Orleans Saints - Hayden Hurst TE South Carolina
28. Pittsburgh Steelers - Leighton Vander Esch LB Boise St.
29. Jacksonville Jaguars - Dallas Goedert TE South Dakota St.
30. Minnesota Vikings - Geron Christian T Louisville
31. New England Patriots - Donte Jackson CB LSU
32. Philadelphia Eagles - Christian Kirk WR Texas A&M

Dear God.

No love for Rosen, apparently. Giants are in a tough spot. Give Manning help at #2 and try to win in the next two years or draft the heir apparent.

Hayden Hurst at 19.

[bbgun]

Well, we actually do need a TE, but I have zero confidence in their ability to find one.

[Simpleton]

Evans wouldn't be a terrible pick but I guess this is the time of year where he starts pumping up guys whose agents took him out to nice steak dinners.

Dear God.

I'm not understanding the love for Evans. But, I would take him before Hayden f'ing Hurst at 19.

[boozeman]

So much for being consistent.

[Simpleton]

Kiper is a hack.

[Cowboysrock55]

So much for being consistent.

Yeah he isn't at all. He just spews what he hears. If someone tells him that stats aren't a big deal with Allen he will repeat it as such. There is no consistency because they aren't really his opinions. They are the opinions of others that he is just repeating.

[Cowboysrock55]

I'm not understanding the love for Evans. But, I would take him before Hayden f'ing Hurst at 19.

Yeah first of all Hurst is older, he will be 25 at the start of his rookie year. And not only that but I don't see him as a first rounder at all. Shit, if we are taking a TE in the first it better at least be Goedert who is younger and more athletic. A 25 year old TE prospect who doesn't look special at 19. It's just crazy.
