Welcome to the Thursday edition of the With the First Pick newsletter, where you're free to graze on a delicious spread of NFL Draft topics to satisfy your insatiable desire for everything draft-related as an appetizer before Thirsty Thursday festivities later. If you mi sed Monday's, , or, we're rebranding the Pick Six newsletter through the end of April. And I, CBS Sportsanalyst Chris Trapa so, will be with you every step of the way.Before I begin, this paragraph will be your daily reminder to tell all your buddies and that one uncle who's always texting you mock draft links to sign up for the With the First Pick newsletter. Just .One of our resident NFL Draft analysts Josh Edwards meticulously crafted his three-round mock draft for us today, and it's a dandy. getting traded, a club trading up for Will Levis inside the Top 5, and the providing the most fitting end to the Carolina Panthers Jersey saga by drafting a receiver in the first round only after trading their longtime, future Hall of Fame quarterback. But I buried the lede. Purposely. It was too juicy. Bijan Robinson to Dallas Cowboys at No. 26 overall. Jerry Jones just wasn't able to resist the temptation of drafting a University of Texas running back to keep him in-state to replace . All the while, the franchise-tagged is like "HELLO, what does a guy need to do to get a drink around here?!" After all, Pollard averages 5.1 yards per carry on 510 career regular-season rushes and went over 1,000 yards in 2022.Here are some other notable prospect-team pairings in Josh's multi-round, trade-filled mock, which you can read in its entirety :1. - C.J. Stroud, QB, Ohio State2. - Bryce Pat Elflein Jersey Young, QB, Alabama3. - Will Anderson, EDGE, Alabama20. - Jordan Addison, WR, USC30. - Calijah Kancey, DT, Pittsburgh54. - Josh Downs, WR, North Carolina82. - Luke Schoonmaker, TE, Michigan87. - Kayshon Boutte, WR, LSU98. - Byron Young, EDGE, Tenne see We have a MAJOR development at No. 1 overall, with reports surfacing that the Carolina Panthers to two quarterbacks -- Stroud or Young. Head coach Frank Reich made it clear he does not view lack of height as a deterrent for a quarterback in the NFL, and while he did praise Anthony Richardson, Carolina has "effectively ruled out Richardson or Will Levis for the No. 1 selection."So will it be Stroud or Young? I know who I'd pick, and he played in the Big Ten. I have made it clear . All joking aside, I really like both Stroud and Young and Sam Mills Jersey wouldn't give a bad grade to the Panthers for selecting either pa ser with the top pick.In a comprehensive but nece sary exercise each draft season, in the 2023 cla s. Interestingly, just like last year, edge rushers and corners were at the top, but the rest of the list is different from what the 2022 group provided. Makes sense that outside pa s rushers and cornerbacks are loaded because every college team has like 14 awesome receivers, and a wide-open, pa s-happy playbook so covering and pre suring the quarterback is darn important on Saturdays. Because I'm a generous dude, here's a peek at the middle of the rankings:6. Tight ends5. Wide receivers4. QuarterbacksThere are three certainties in life -- death, taxes and CBS Sports HQ's Emory Hunt analyzing every NFL-capable prospect regardle s of where they played their college ball. Your tape can be filmed by your mom in the stands and uploaded to a knockoff YouTube site, and Emory will find it, write a detailed scouting report, and project your game to the next level on-air while dre sed in a debonair suit. It happen.Emory wrote Matt Corral Jersey an on-brand article . Shepherd offensive guard Joey Fisher is generating buzz in NFL scouting circles, and of course Emory has him listed. Chattanooga's McClendon Curtis looked the part at the Senior Bowl and is a mammoth individual at 6-foot-5 and 331 pounds. He's on Emory's starting 11 too. If you want to impre s your friends with knowledge of a prospect from, say, Incarnate Word when he's drafted, you'll want to thoroughly study Emory's piece. non-Lamar QB options. Buried in the 9,000,000 takes on the Lamar Jackson situation is a breakdown of what the Ravens could do at quarterback if they indeed trade the former MVP quarterback. Tyler Sullivan .Mike McCarthy, evaluated Prescott's 2022 interceptions. Despite appearing in 12 regular-season games, Prescott tied for the most picks in football in 2022. Yikes. Makes sense he and his head coach spent time analyzing what happened on those plays. McCarthy pointed to as the main culprit. While this self-scouting is prudent and itself doesn't indicate anything, the Cowboys aren't going to draft a quarterback right? RIGHT?! unlikely to trade up? Colts GM Chris Ballard explained why the team didn't trade up to the No. 1 spot and hinted that a trade into the Juston Burris Jersey top 3 is unlikely for Indianapolis, stating "we feel like there was enough depth in the draft that we were gonna be OK."
