Now that the mayhem has died down, it’s time to see who some of the winners and losers of last weeks draft are.

Winners

Jacksonville Jaguars

This organization isn’t just taking steps in the right direction, they are taking strides. After having a gift fall into their lap with the selection of Jalen Ramsey in round one, Christmas came in round two by the name of Myles Jack. Jacksonville was able to get top ten prospects in consecutive rounds that will contribute from day one.

Out of their seven picks, I think the best for Jacksonville is Yannick Ngakoue. The 6”2’, 255 pound DE/OLB out of Maryland tallied 21 sacks and 32 TFL for the terrapins in his three year stint. The interesting thing about Ngakoue is he switched to DE in his final year for Maryland, and had the most success. With his size, he projects to be an OLB in Jacksonville’s 3-4 defensive scheme, but can stick his hand in the ground if need be.

Six of the Jaguars seven draft picks were defensive players. Coach Gus Bradley and company are making sure they get pressure on Andrew Luck and the rest of the AFC South.

Grade: A+

Cleveland Browns

This is the first time in a long time, the Cleveland Browns didn’t reach for a pick. With an NFL record 14 picks, Cleveland made it a necessity to build through the draft with the many holes they have on this roster.

In round one, after trading back for a second time, the Browns selected one of the top WRs in this draft class, Corey Coleman. After years of missing out on top notch WRs like Julio Jones, Cleveland may have finally found their superstar. The three year standout at Baylor combined for 173 receptions, 3,009 receiving yards, and 33 TDs.

With their 14 picks, Cleveland picked equally as far as offense and defense go (8 off, 6 def). A selection that went under the radar, that could turn out to be the steal of the draft is the selection of Scooby Wright, LB Arizona. Had the former wildcat not been hurt last year, Wright would have been a late first, early second round talent. His sophomore year, Wright totaled over 160 tackles, including 15 sacks. If he is able to return to form from his injury, he may be able to contribute right away.

The pick in this draft that will give this team an edge, no pun intended, is DE Carl Nassib. In his final season with Penn State, the 6”6’, 260 pound mammoth, compiled 15.5 sacks and forced six fumbles. Pairing him up with second year DT Danny Shelton, should give this defense a spark.

Grade: A

Tennessee Titans

Might as well keep it in the AFC South and give “props” to the up and coming Titans. You would think a team with plethora of picks would get a good grade, and rightfully so. With their first selection, Tennessee traded up with the Cleveland Browns and selected Michigan St OT, Jack Conkiln. This team needs to protect franchise QB Marcus Mariota, and Conklin can step in day one and provide that.

The best selection for this franchise was their first of four picks in the second round, Kevin Dodd. Dodd was overlooked in that Clemson defense thanks to teammate and first round selection Shaq Lawson. Dodd, who many thought would go in the first round, was still available in round two and Tennessee pounced. Don’t let the “one year wonder” comparisons scare you off. Dodd was around the ball almost every play, and manage 24 TFL with 12.5 of those being sacks.

The head scratcher pick for Tennessee was the third of their four second round picks, Derrick Henry. New GM, Jon Robinson, traded for Demarco Murray a month before the NFL Draft, so many thought Murray and David Cobb would be the two headed monster in the backfield. With the selection of Henry, this allows the Titans to take a lot of pressure off Marcus Mariota, and let the running game beat up opposing defenses.

Grade: A-

Losers

San Diego Chargers

The night started off with a bang for the Chargers Thursday night. That bang wasn’t a good one, at least in my eyes. San Diego drafted Joey Bosa from Ohio State with the third overall pick. Let me first say, Joey Bosa is a gifted athlete that has a motor and a knack to be wherever the ball is. This selection was bad because of the player; it was bad because of the fit. Bosa is your prototypical DE in a 4-3 scheme. Unfortunately for the former Buckeye, San Diego plays in a 3-4 defense.

The other knock on the Chargers draft is the inability to address the offensive line. Rivers was the eight most sacked QB in 2015 with 40. The North Carolina State alum doesn’t have many more years in the league if he goes down that often. With King Dunlaps inconsistency at tackle, Ronnie Stanley or Laremy Tunsil would’ve been the better pick for San Diego at three.

Grade: D

Los Angeles Rams

I could have written this piece on them the day they made the trade with the Tennessee Titans to move up to the first overall pick. The Rams have needed a QB for over a decade, but none of the signal callers in the 2016 draft were worthy of what the Rams gave up. Here are the details of that trade below:

Rams Receive: Titans first, fourth, and sixth round picks in 2016 NFL Draft

Titans Receive: Rams first, two second and third round picks in 2016 NFL Draft. And First and third round picks in 2017 NFL Draft.

Had the Rams stayed put, they could’ve added major pieces to their offensive line, defensive line, and wide receiver corps. I’m going to be a big emphasis on offensive line for this team. If there is anything you want to do in this league when drafting a QB to be the future of your franchise, it’s give him protection.

Los Angeles is banking a hell of a lot on Jared Goff, and that payout doesn’t seem so bright based off of what they are providing him.
