Each Team’s Job 1 in Round 1 of the NFL Draft

It’s one thing to have the “best player available” fall to your favorite NFL team in the draft. It’s another thing altogether to be an Eagles fan in 2020 and see your team take Jalen Reagor one pick in front of Justin Jefferson. Sigh. Well, that Super Bowl LIX trophy should be some consolation.

In six days when the NFL Draft kicks off, NFL teams will be weighing whether to draft for positional need or taking the BPA. If they’re lucky, both will align. Kody Malstrom identified what NFL teams should focus on in the first round by going pick by pick. Here’s one team:

1.04 Titans - Give Cam Ward another weapon

With the Tennessee Titans' offensive line grading out well in Run Block Set Grade, Jeremiyah Love would hit the ground running, taking pressure off of Cam Ward’s shoulders.

Best Ball Buy or Sell on These Remaining Free Agents

The calendar says it’s mid-April, but NFL free agency has largely faded into the background after a week-long frenzy last month. With the draft coming fast, it’s easy to forget that there are some players who are still on the open market. Some of them have posted fantastic seasons in the past, yet they remain unsigned. Pete Overzet covers five WRs who fit this description, and whether he’s drafted them in Underdog best ball drafts or will look to do it in the future.

Brandon Aiyuk | ADP: 157.1 | Pete’s Exposure: 6.7%

Current Situation: It's hard to think of a current NFL player with more messy baggage than Aiyuk. Maybe A.J. Brown, but at least AJB steps foot on the field. Aiyuk tore his ACL and MCL in October 2024, missed the entire 2025 season, went AWOL from team activities, had $27 million in guaranteed money voided by the 49ers, and was placed on the reserve/left team list in December. Other than that, everything is fine. Still, it seems hard to believe that another team wouldn't kick the tires on a 27-year-old who has posted back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons, but at this point, it's a genuine question mark.

Verdict: Everyone assumes Aiyuk will eventually end up with his college pal Jayden Daniels in Washington, but I'm skeptical. At 6.7%, I might be underweight, but I feel like that's an appropriate position. FWIW, Jake Trowbridge and Chris Allen are skeptical of him in dynasty as well.
