Quinshon Judkins is a tough runner who was productive for Ole Miss before transferring to Ohio State.

Also, if you haven’t visited the site in a while, you may have noticed the new look. Yes, after nearly two decades, we’ve finally re-designed our site to be more modern. This was not done on a whim, but rather out of necessity because of what occurred during the 2023 NFL Draft. Our site crashed during the entire first day of the draft, which was disastrous for our revenue stream because we make more money during the draft than any other time. The site crashed because a line of code conflicted with the old format of the site, so we had to transition to this new look.

Because we lost so much money during the draft, I want to point out that you can really help support the site by paying for the ad-free version of it. It’s $7.99 per month, but you’ll get a super-fast site with no ads. My developer will be adding new features to paid subscribers as well, so look for that in the near future. If you don’t want to pay, please spread the word about the site through word of mouth. That would also be a big help!

I suspect the Giants will use this pick on a quarterback if they don’t make a move for Cam Ward.

Jaxson Dart is instinctive and tough, but has some shaky pocket presence.

Pick change; previously Donovan Jackson, G

The Titans need to add weapons for their new quarterback to pair with Calvin Ridley.

Emeka Egbuka was a big-time producer with C.J. Stroud during the ’22 season.

The Jaguars have severe issues in the secondary that they’ll need to address early in the draft.

Jahdae Barron is a very instinctive cornerback who improved his ball skills in his final year.

The Raiders have no running game. Chip Kelly could go after one of his Ohio State running backs.

Treveyon Henderson has been an impressive runner and receiver out of the backfield.

Pick change; previously Jaxson Dart, QB

The Patriots drafted Drake Maye, so they’ll need to spend some resources to protect him.

Josh Simmons is an athletic left tackle with plus strength, but is coming off a torn patellar tendon.

The Bears will lose Keenan Allen in free agency, so they could pursue another receiver.

Matthew Golden has a solid combination of size and speed. He’s an explosive athlete and an aggressive receiver.

The Saints don’t have much of an edge rush outside of Carl Granderson, so they’ll need to add some pass-rushing talent.

Sai’vion Jones is very athletic, but didn’t live up to it in college. He had a monster Senior Bowl.

Here’s some more front-seven help for the Bears, who need to improve against the run.

Deone Walker is a massive nose tackle, but he can generate pressure on the quarterback despite his size.

The Jets foolishly passed on Brock Bowers. They’ll have to use a major resource on the position if they want any productivity from it.

Colston Loveland made clutch catches during Michigan’s championship run. He projects as a decent blocker as well.

The 49ers may spend an early draft pick on a receiver, especially if Brandon Aiyuk is also traded.

Isaiah Bond has dangerous speed and huge upside.

The Cowboys have nothing at receiver outside of CeeDee Lamb, so an early-round pick should be used on the position.

Jack Bech has separation issues, but possesses nice size. He had a terrific Senior Bowl.

Pick change; previously Omarion Hampton, RB

The Colts seemingly have a million tight ends on their roster, but none of them are very good.

Elijah Arroyo recovered well off a torn ACL. He has great size, quickness and athleticism, and he’s a terrific route runner.

The Falcons need better players on the defensive front because they can’t get after the quarterback at all.

Shemar Turner had a down final season. He needs some improvement to his game.

The Cardinals have had a weak defensive line since J.J. Watt and Chandler Jones left. They need some upgrades.

Landon Jackson has high upside and can play end in the 4-3 and five-tech in the 3-4.

The Dolphins need some new cornerbacks with Jalen Ramsey aging out of the NFL.

Trey Amos is a tall cornerback with plus speed and athleticism.

The Bengals have sorely missed Jessie Bates’ play-making ability in the secondary, so they’ll have to spend an early-round pick on a safety.

Xavier Watts is a dangerous ballhawk who made lots of plays for Notre Dame.

Geno Smith was traded in what was an excellent move for the Seahawks. However, they need a new quarterback.

Jalen Milroe is a dangerous runner who has a solid arm. He needs to improve his ability to read coverages.

Sean Payton is no fan of Javonte Williams. He’ll want to find an upgrade.

Omarion Hampton is a big back who has shown decent receiving ability.

Pick change; previously Ollie Gordon, RB

The Seahawks had the weakest interior offensive line in the NFL last year when Connor Williams retired.

Jonah Monheim can play every position on the offensive line, but looks to be best at center.

The Buccaneers have some major problems in their secondary, particularly at cornerback. What could help is an explosive edge rusher to rattle opposing quarterbacks.

J.T. Tuimoloau has flashed some great pass-rushing potential, but must be more consistent.

It sounds like the Packers will be trading Jaire Alexander, so here’s a potential replacement.

Azareye’h Thomas is a very tall cornerback who provided tight coverage on receivers all year.

Acquiring Baltimore’s former backfield likely won’t work very well for the Chargers, given J.K. Dobbins’ injury history. Here’s a much-needed running back upgrade.

Cam Skattebo is a tough running back with plus receiving ability.

The Bills could stand to add another edge rusher with Von Miller no longer on the roster.

Princely Umanmielen has good size, as well as speed and athleticism off the edge.

The Panthers had severe issues stopping the run and getting to the quarterback last year.

Joshua Farmer was solid in run support while also putting decent pressure on opposing quarterbacks.

Many quarterbacks hate interior pressure more than anything, so the Texans may want to upgrade this area to combat the lethal passing attacks in the AFC.

Nic Scourton had a breakout ’23 season with 10 sacks. He has a huge frame and possesses massive upside as a potential defensive end or five-technique.

The running game is very important for the Ravens, and Derrick Henry won’t be around forever.

Ollie Gordon is a big back, but showed functional receiving ability along with his impressive vision and contact balance.

Pick change; previously Treveyon Henderson, RB

The Lions are great because of their offensive line. They could stand to add a young guard to eventually take over for one of the veterans.

Caleb Rogers was one of the top performers in the agility drills at the combine.

The Redskins have nothing at receiver outside of Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel.

Elic Ayomanor is a tough receiver with good size.

The Bills are weaker to the run than the pass, so they could stand to add a defensive tackle.

Darius Alexander was a solid player for Toledo who put decent pressure on opposing quarterbacks.

The Chiefs traded Joe Thuney, so they’re going to need a new guard in addition to a new left tackle.

Donovan Jackson is a tough blocker with upside.

Pick change; previously Jack Bech, WR

The Eagles have two star receivers, but they could stand to add depth at the position.

Savion Williams is a huge receiver, measuring at 6-foot-5.

Pick change; previously Jack Bech, WR
