It’s NFL Draft day! Whether you’re a hardcore football fan or more of a casual observer, the NFL Draft is a can’t-miss event. We encourage you to follow @pfrumors on Twitter for up-to-the-second updates on today’s madness.
The Rams and Eagles are expected to take Jared Goff and Carson Wentz with the top two picks, but things are wide open after that point. Many view Ole Miss’ Laremy Tunsil as the best tackle in this year’s class, but the Chargers could go against the grain and take Notre Dame tackle Ronnie Stanley at No. 3. At No. 4, the Cowboys have long been linked to defensive back Jalen Ramsey (an FSU product, just like Deion Sanders), but Jerry Jones is said to be infatuated with Ohio State running back Ezekiel Elliott. Beyond that, the Jaguars could shock some people by taking Georgia linebacker Leonard Floyd at No. 5, the Ravens could trade down at No. 6, and no one is quite sure what the 49ers are thinking at No. 7. From there, the rest of the first round promises to be full of surprises and our latest mock draft has some bold predictions based off of informed speculation.
Of course, the draft can also spur teams to move established veterans. In the coming days, we could see the 49ers finally pull the trigger on a Colin Kaepernick deal with the Broncos. Meanwhile, quarterback Sam Bradford is mad at the Eagles for trading to get one of the top QBs in this year’s draft and is pushing hard for a trade.
So, what are you waiting for? Follow @pfrumors on Twitter and stay tuned to ProFootballRumors.com for all the latest NFL Draft news.

Are you serious? This is BS. Please take this off the site. I don’t care if everyone on here absolutely LOVES football, this site is called MLB TRADE RUMORS. TAKE THIS OFF IMMEDIATELY AND FIRE THIS WRITER!!!

The people that run mlbtraderumors also have a basketball and football version…..theyre promoting their OWN website during one of the highest active/interedting parts of football- the draft. Probably will promote their NBA site during theit draft in june.

They already have the huge sidebar links. That is plenty of advertising for people that actually care about the NFL or NBA. Just my opinion.

The sidebar arrows can be disabled at the bottom of the page by clicking the “hide arrows” button, if you’re so inclined.

Thank you. I wasn’t trying to complain about them, but I have accidentally hit them more times than I am proud to admit.

It’s one post on a critical day for another of the sites that we own and operate. Yes, this is “MLB Trade Rumors,” which is part of a business that we intend to continue growing. So, yes we’re serious.
Tim Dierkes
We’ve been cross-promoting our related websites here for more than a decade. I don’t think we’re excessive about it. At any rate, I’m sorry for the inconvenience.
In regard to the arrows…the majority of our traffic is mobile, they don’t get the arrows. We do need to make sure new MLBTR readers are aware of Pro Football Rumors, especially for big events..

I think this is crap too. Everywhere we turn it’s football draft junk. I’m a big football fan, but it’s baseball season. Leave your sidebar ads up and get this stuff off the main page, PLEASE!

It really sucks someone held you down and forced you to read this. Luckily for me I was able to evade the “Football Rumors” Massacre of 2016.
You guys are in my thoughts and prayers.

Ha, I know right. They run like 2 or 3 promotional articles per year. Not really sure why that’s so infuriating as to warrant caps and exclamation points. To each their own I guess though

Just pass up the post if you don’t like it!
I am totally not into the NFL draft, I think it’s completely overhyped and a waste of all the time and space it gets on sports talk shows and other forms of media, but to get so hurt by the mere mention of it that you demand someone lose their job because the free site you are lucky enough to have access to dared to promote their other products means you have way too much time on your hands and not enough real things to worry about friend.

I like that you can pick the stories you want to read on site with all three sports. I wish they would add the NHL as a fourth sport. How can anybody complain about having too much sports to read about? If you only want baseball stories than just read the baseball stories.
