It's impossible to determine what teams will actually do on draft day because of the different smokescreens, trade possibilities, etc.

This is what appears to be the possibilities for teams, though, based on comments from those who cover the teams and from the teams themselves.

1) Tennessee will either select Jalen Ramsey or Laremy Tunsel (The rumors seem to go back and forth on this.) Joey Bosa also is rumored to be in the mix.

2) Cleveland will take a quarterback, most likely Carson Wentz (Even Robert Griffin III has acknowledged that the team told him he would have to face a highly drafted QB for the starting job.)

3) San Diego would probably take Tunsil if Tennessee doesn't, but also is interested in Joey Bosa and is strongly rumored to be seeking to trade down.

4) Dallas seems to have less actual informed rumors about it's pick other than Jerry Jones saying he wouldn't take a RB or QB there then kind of renegiing on that. Bosa seems to be the rumor with the most wings. Ramsey is rumored to be the No. 1 player on the team's board.

So, the first four picks (most likely) based on those rumors (no trades since they aren't guaranteed to happen) are:

1) Jalen Ramsey

2) Carson Wentz

3) Laremy Tunsil

4) Joey Bosa

OR

1) Laremy Tunsil

2) Carson Wentz

3) Joey Bosa

4) Jalen Ramsey

unless we sign Hardy or if Wentz is available at #4.....our pick will be Bosa or Buckner. i'd almost bet on it.

I have a feeling it will come down to Bosa or Goff at #4. I am not sure how they feel about Goff because I have seen no indication in the press one way or the other. That could be an indication that they care for him or it could mean that they secretly love him and don't want it to get out.

I see the first three picks going Tunsil, Wentz, Ramsey.

So, having said that, they will probably take Elliott lol.

If Tenn keeps the pick (I think they will) they have a scrawny QB to protect. I think they have to take Tunsil.

The only other conceivable option for them in my mind is a trade down. If they stay at #1 you have to move to protect your franchise QB.

They've been linked to Buckner pretty frequently as well. If they keep the pick it's probably one of those two.

If Tennessee keeps that pick, they might have the nightmare of facing Carson Wentz for 15 years in the AFC. They should trade with the Cowboys to get Wentz in the NFC. I wouldn't rule out SD passing on Wentz either.

I think Tunsil at 1 and Wentz at two are near locks at this point. Draft starts at 3. If SD can't trade I would think they would take Ramsey. If they go DL seems like they would take Buckner over Bosa given their 3-4 scheme

I am still holding out hope for Goff.assuming Ramsey is gone the only 2 options which are worth it at 4 is Goff or Bosa.Its hard to pass up a franchise QB for a SDE for me,makes no sense.If he turns into another Aaron Rodgers then Jerry will never live it down and will destroy this front office and may require a complete cleansing the scouts.

I didn't see that rumor anywhere, just mainly that they like Tunsil and Bosa.

They seem to like Bosa as a 3-4 linebacker and the owner or coach said the scheme is diverse enough that Bosa would be a good fit.

that would be such a waste,this guy cant cover in space.He NEEDS to play DE in the 4-3.Chargers are really dumb or they are blowing smoke and i suspect the later.

If Browns are looking for a QB to compete against RG3 for starter then they take Goff over Wentz

Why would we handicap ourselves like that? Top of round 2 is a great place to get a pass rusher as well. If Ramsey is there, he's a tough guy to pass on

Got a link for these rumors or are they your orginal thoughts?

Most of that stuff we knew at least two weeks ago.
