Raiders Draft Kolton Miller At No. 15 Overall

The Oakland Raiders selected UCLA offensive tackle Kolton Miller at No. 15 overall in the 2018 NFL draft. He's a freakish athlete at 6-foot-9 and has great feet as a left tackle.

Buccaneers Select Vita Vea At No. 12 Overall

Giants Draft Saquon Barkley Second Overall

The New York Giants selected Penn State running back Saquon Barkley second overall in the 2018 NFL draft. The Giants weren't about to let Barkley get past them at No. 2.

Browns Select Baker Mayfield First Overall

The Cleveland Browns selected Oklahoma quarterback Baker Mayfield with the first overall pick of the 2018 NFL draft.

Odell Beckham Jr. Taking Part In Individual Drills

New York Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (ankle) was seen catching passes and doing non-contact work in individual drills Thursday.

Josh Rosen's Personality May Clash With Certain Teams

UCLA quarterback Josh Rosen may be the most intelligent quarterback in this year's class, and he could even be the consensus most talented overall passer.

49ers Covet Tremaine Edmunds

The San Francisco 49ers covet Virginia Tech linebacker Tremaine Edmunds at nine overall in the draft.

Lamar Jackson's Football IQ A Question Mark

Louisville quarterback Lamar Jackson has enough arm strength to be drafted as a quarterback in the NFL, but his inconsistent accuracy and lack of football IQ remain a big question.
