NFL 2019 Mock Draft - Round 1

Let's start off with some very big news, that could change mock drafts everywhere. According to Pete Prisco, a source very close to the Cardinals, who works for CBS Sports, they won’t be drafting QB Kyler Murray first overall. Wow, that is insane! I’m sure plenty of havoc will ensue as many teams try to trade up to draft him. I suppose the Cardinals couldn’t ship Josh Rosen, so they’re sticking with him.

30. Green Bay Packers (via New Orleans): Devin Bush Jr., ILB, Michigan (need an ILB badly
31. Seattle Seahawks (via Rams): Jeffery Simmons, DT, Mississippi State (also get another pick later)
32. San Francisco 49ers: A.J. Brown, WR, Mississippi (they need a good WR to help out Garoppolo)

Broncos' coach Vic Fangio is a very defensive minded guy. The Broncos picked Devin White because at 10 because he’d fit in nicely with Fangio’s defensive game plan. He'd also arguably make the Broncos defence a top 5 unit again, as they'd have a strong pass rush, an excellent run coverage and a phenomenal secondary.
