2018 NFL MOCK DRAFT - 5/8/17

With the 2017 draft coming to an end I am sure many of you are already wondering who the top prospects for 2018 might be. Trying to predict not only the top prospects, but also the draft order is a tall order right now, but I am willing if you are . I have done limited tape study on these prospects so far, and they are mostly guys I couldn't help noticing while watching others on tape this year, or guys I expected to enter the 2017 draft that stayed. Some are just really talented ,and I expect them to step up this year as well. Right now I see a draft deep at QB , OT, and edge rusher if the players I expect enter the draft. Sam Darnold and Josh Rosen are the most anticapated QB's, and they are the first 2 players off the board right now,  but I expect others will challenge them for the top spot . A lot of these guys will get hurt, disappoint on or off the field, and some probably won't even enter the draft.  Out of the 32 guys I predicted to go in the first round in my way too early mock last year - 12 went in the 1rst, 5 in the 2nd , 3 in the 3rd, 3 in the 4th, 2 in the 5th, 2 in the in the 6th, 1 in the 7th, 2 went un-drafted, and 2 returned to school. So you can see what a crapshoot it really is at this time. While I don't think Cleveland will have the worst record this year I do believe they will trade for the first pick , because the Jets & Rams rosters are so barren that one of them will take a big package of picks to rebuild their team. I'll go with the Rams for now,because they just took Goff in 2016 .  Without further ado , here it is. Feel free to leave a comment. Agreeing or disagreeing is welcome, but please do it intelligently and respectfully. If you can't, or resort to personal attacks, I just won't post it.So here it is. Enjoy.
