Jackson Powers-Johnson NFL Draft Prediction
ROUND PREDICTION: First Round (No. 20 Overall Pick)
TEAM PREDICTION: Pittsburgh Steelers
DRAFT ANALYSIS: The Steelers are old school when it comes to the draft, eyeballing the best player on the board with a devil-may-care attitude about the so-called analytical draft value. Jackson Powers-Johnson, fresh from stealing the show at the Senior Bowl, could be that guy. He’s got that unicorn mix of bulk, brawn, and ballet-like finesse and could easily slot in at guard. Here’s the kicker: Pittsburgh is practically sending out an SOS for a center, and given their love affair with the ground game, snagging JPJ feels like destiny.

Sure, there’s some static about their QB situation long-term, but with Russell Wilson helming the ship and Justin Fields in the bullpen, the Steelers are set for a wild ride in 2024 either way. Don’t be surprised if they also cast a longing glance at a first-round wide receiver. After all, who doesn’t love a shiny new toy for their QBs?
Jordan Morgan NFL Draft Prediction
ROUND PREDICTION: First Round (No. 31 Overall Pick)
TEAM PREDICTION: San Francisco 49ers
DRAFT ANALYSIS: San Francisco waved goodbye to Mike McGlinchey, saw him off to the free agency sunset before 2023 rolled in, and now Trent Williams is eyeing the big 3-5. Shanahan’s playbook? It’s like a love letter to the run game, always on the lookout for those nimble big men up front.
Morgan is not just a tackle; the guy can shuffle inside and rock the guard spot too. The 49ers, sitting pretty with their pick, could go wild card and snag anyone, but beefing up their O-line? That’s like sticking to a winning formula. Keeping the trenches strong is just the 49ers’ style, ensuring Shanahan’s ground-and-pound symphony plays on.
Kingsley Suamataia NFL Draft Prediction
ROUND PREDICTION: First Round (No. 32 Overall Pick)
TEAM PREDICTION: Kansas City Chiefs
DRAFT ANALYSIS: The Chiefs have made it very clear that they don't mind drafting developmental type of players in Round 1, as evidenced by the selection of edge rusher Felix Anudike-Uzomah last year. The Chiefs could go a variety of ways here but have to feel better about their wide receiver room with the addition of Marquise Brown.

Suamataia is a former five-star recruit who initially enrolled at Oregon. He's the cousin of Lions OT Penei Sewell and is a physically imposing player. The Chiefs don't have a long-term plan at left tackle and could bring in a high-ceiling player like Kingsley to develop for a season or two before letting him take over.
