The NFL Draft happened, and considering the XFL disbanded, this is where we might be making that cheddar for the near future. We are going to break it down division-by-division, and considering I am a Bears fan and Jonah stans for the Vikings, we started with the NFC North. There may not be a deeper dive out there.

NFL Draft - things that stood out?
NFC North Breakdown
Vikings did great
Justin Jefferson was a good get.
A lot of buzz for Jeff Gladney leading up to things.
Ezra Cleveland fell to them when Trent Williams said he would rather have undiagnosed tumors than play in Minnesota.
Cameron Dantzler - Tall and slow.
Kenny Willekes can play. He’s a guy to really watch out for
Nate Stanley, the master of the quarterback sneak, is a strong-armed version of Kirk Cousins. Inconsistent, not mobile, and instead of not beating good teams, he just falls apart against anyone on the road.
But your undrafted free agents SUCKED.
Lions had a draft
Jeff Okudah is a stud.
D’Andre Swift doesn’t move the needle for me a ton. I think he’s a slight improvement but probably bigger that he can hopefully stay healthier than Kerryon Johnson.
Julian Okwara is too small to hold up at defensive end and wasn’t all that speical in college.
I like Jonah Jackson as a guard prospect.
Great job getting Hunter Bryant as an undrafted free agent as he’ll make a nice #2 tight end. Not athletic enough to be anything more.
Packers were terrible
I was a huge fan of Jordan Love, but it’s a slap in the face to use a first round pick on quarterback with Rodgers there. This draft got them no closer to a Super Bowl.
AJ Dillon is a battering ram, but he’s not a threat at catching the ball, so it’s quite a price to pay for a short-yardage back.
Josiah Deguara was a huge reach and baffling they didn’t take Adam Trautman.
Jon Runyan has the genetics that Jonah loves.
Undrafted - Marc-Antoine Dequoy, out of Montreal, allegedly ran a 4.36 with a cold.
Bears are questionable
Cole Kmet and Jaylon Johnson were safe picks with limited upside. I’d have been more excited with Chase Claypool or Albert O way later.
Trevis Gipson has some good length and wasn’t used properly at Tulsa, could be a rotational pass rusher.
Watch out for Darnell Mooney out of Tulane, short and fast - 2018 he had nearly 1000 yards on only 48 catches.
Arlington Hambright and Lachavious Simmons
Ledarius Mack - Khalil Mack’s little brother
Ahmad Wagner - 11 pass interference calls on 43 targets. He still needs to grow into tight end but only one year of college football experience after being a bruiser power forward at 6’5” for Iowa.
Jonah States 6-10
