The NFL Draft is just hours away! This year’s draft is full of intrigue and you’ll want to stay tuned to Pro Football Rumors, whether you’re a hardcore football fan or just a casual observer.
With just hours to go, we still don’t know who the Browns will take with the No. 1 overall pick. For weeks, the Browns were closely linked with USC quarterback Sam Darnold or Wyoming QB Josh Allen, but more and more people in the football world are starting to believe that they’ll take the talented, yet undersized, Baker Mayfield instead. Meanwhile, Allen is in the midst of a controversy that could impact his draft stock.
With multiple possibilities at the top, the Giants (No. 2) and Jets (No. 3) are preparing for every possible scenario. The Giants have been widely connected to Penn State running back Saquon Barkley and are divided on this year’s top QB prospects, but it’s still entirely possible that they’ll use this opportunity to tab Eli Manning’s successor. The Jets had been wrestling with whether to take Mayfield or UCLA QB Josh Rosen, but they could have an opportunity to snag Darnold, which at one point seemed unthinkable. At the same time, Jets coaches are pushing the front office to take Allen, if he’s there.
This year’s draft is one of the most uncertain in recent memory and you’ll want to follow along every step of the way. To stay plugged in with up-to-the-minute updates, follow Pro Football Rumors on Twitter: @pfrumors.

Interested to see how bad those high school tweets hurt Josh Allen’s draft stock tonight.

Dont trust Allen with his accuracy issues. 57 percent passer. I realize there are past picks who came with low college completion numbers, who went on to succeed in the NFL, but Jets can’t afford to mess mess this up. Be rlly happy with Darnold/Mayfield @3.

Oh called the Browns picking Mayfield #1 the other day.
Jets don’t have too much luck with USC QB’s

Darnold has the highest ceiling, but Rosen has the highest floor….and I’m not sure Darnold gets to his ceiling, but I’d bet the house Rosen survives the best……for all the noise, ain’t none of the guys are Andrew Luck or Manning (Eli, even)……
