Quarterback Selection: Will the Tennessee Titans pick Cam Ward with the first overall pick, or will another team make a surprise move? The Cleveland Browns might be potential trade-up partners for teams looking for a quarterback.
Blockbuster Trades: The Jacksonville Jaguars are reportedly looking to make a bold move in the draft, potentially trading up to No. 2 overall to get players like Travis Hunter. This could shake up the draft order and create surprises.
Top Prospects: Daniel Jeremiah’s mock draft has the Broncos and Giants trading up for help on offense, while Bucky Brooks predicts the Steelers will draft Shedeur Sanders as their quarterback of the future.

Potential surprises to watch out for in tonight’s NFL draft:
Will Johnson’s Draft Slide: Cornerback Will Johnson might fall further than expected due to injury concerns. Peter Schrager’s mock draft has him going to the Detroit Lions at 28th overall, which could be a steal for the team.
Cowboys’ Tackle Selection: The Dallas Cowboys might pass on wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan and instead choose tackle Tyler Booker to replace Zack Martin, who retired. This would be a strategic move to strengthen their offensive line.
Shedeur Sanders’ Draft Fall: Quarterback Shedeur Sanders, once considered a potential number-one pick, might slide to the Pittsburgh Steelers at 21st overall. This would be a significant fall, but the Steelers might see it as a valuable opportunity to address their quarterback needs.
Another Cornerback for the Eagles: The Philadelphia Eagles might select another cornerback, Maxwell Hairston, despite already picking Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean in the previous draft. This would further bolster their secondary.
