Overview
- On Tuesday, major outlets locked in early grades, with SBNation listing nine A-level classes including the Browns, Giants, Raiders, Eagles and Jets.
- PFF’s Tuesday needs review flagged notable gaps that survived the draft, citing the Raiders’ interior defensive line and the Eagles’ thin safety group among eight problem units.
- The Patriots doubled down at offensive tackle by taking Caleb Lomu at No. 28 and Dametrious Crownover at No. 196, and executive Eliot Wolf said Will Campbell stays at left tackle.
- Philadelphia selected USC wideout Makai Lemon at No. 20, a move analysts say increases the likelihood of an A.J. Brown trade and positions Lemon for an immediate role in fantasy projections.
- Las Vegas made Fernando Mendoza the No. 1 pick and later took corner Jermod McCoy in Round 4 despite reported knee concerns, a value play that helped drive strong report-card marks.
