THE NFL RE-DRAFT

Roger Goodell held a press conference today where he said he had exciting new to announce. At the beginning of the press conference Goodell said how the NFL has always been full of "crazy events." He announced his decision of the NFL re-draft about 15 minutes into the press conference and said it was going to happen this off-season. "I know that a lot of NFL fans dislike me and I know a lot will also dislike me for this, but im hoping it brings the spark that the NFL needs. "As of this very moment every NFL player is now a free agent. The re-draft begins next weekend in Los Angeles California where every NFL player will meet for this re-draft extravaganza. That is all." Goodell stated just before walking out. He did not take any questions after announcing the NFL re-draft.

NFL players, fans, writers, insiders, coaches, pretty much everyone involved took to social media after hearing the announcement:

The NFL re-draft gives a chance for every team to become a contender. Each team will now have 3-5 stars. Instead of being like the browns, who had 1 or 2 star players. or the Jaguars who had 1-2, this gives every team in opportunity to have a new identity. More info soon!

NFL RE-DRAFT DAY 1

The draft kicked off tonight, Friday March 27th, 2015 at 7 PM EST in Los Angeles California. The Draft Lottery began at 6:30 PM EST where we found out the draft order. The Colts got the honor of first pick. each team would have 10 minutes to make their selection. Not much time for how many players you can draft. Day one involved the first three round so without further question lets look at the results:

29	Dallas Cowboys	Lavonte David	ROLB
30	Buffalo Bills	J.J Watt	RE
31	New York Giants	Harrison Smith	FS
32	Oakland Raiders	Devin McCourty	FS

TOP 5 PICKS OF ROUND 1:

5. Jacksonville Jaguars- Earl Thomas III FS: Earl Thomas is one of the best defensive backs in the NFL. The Jaguars, a team who didn't have a very good secondary before the re-draft, drafted Earl Thomas to help with the problem and give them a new identity. Jaguars became frustrated with a mediocre secondary that lost them close games and they hope that Earl Thomas will fix this issue.
4. Carolina Panthers- Russell Wilson QB: Russell Wilson is also here, because before the re-draft Carolina had a running quarterback that was pretty successful with the team. Russell Wilson. who I believe is better than Cam Newton in some ways, will fit perfectly in this offense right away, and as long as they can build around him Russell Wilson could lead this team to a super bowl just like he did Seattle.
3. New York Jets- Luke Kuechly MLB: This is a top pick because not only is Kuechly a tackling machine, but he's also young and can get around the field very quick. Luke Kuechly the former Carolina Panther and defensive rookie of the year is coming in with coach Rex Ryan, a defensive style coach, under the helm. Leading tackler this season? It's very possible.
2. Buffalo Bills- J.J. Watt RE: The best defensive player in the NFL and last seasons runner up for M.V.P is number two on this list because he basically got stolen in this draft. Everyone believed J.J. Watt would be selected in the top ten, but instead the Bills got to settle for him with the 30th pick of the draft. Great steal for Buffalo.
1. Indianapolis Colts- Andrew Luck: My number one pick of this draft is the number one pick of this draft. Andrew Luck. This is the best pick of this first round because not only is luck a future threat to the NFL, he is also young, fast, and a great passer. Plus with Indianapolis bringing him back, he already knows most of the playbook. If the Colts can build around Andrew Luck Correctly we could see this team in the Super Bowl right away.

63	New Orleans Saints	Xavier Rhodes	CB
64	Indianapolis Colts	Eric Weddle	FS

TOP 5 PICKS OF ROUND 2

5. Philadelphia Eagles- Josh Gordon WR: They drafted Cam Newton in the first round. Cam Newton never really had a good receiver to throw too, and now adding Josh Gordon, a fast receiver with great hand, it finally gives us a chance to see what Cam Newton is actually capable of.
4.Oakland Raiders- Robert Quinn RE: Young, talented, and fast. All words that describe Robert Quinn. I believe Oakland made a great selection with Robert Quinn adding more power to the defense, and also in a couple of years I see Robert Quinn as a top 3 defensive lineman. Good pick by the silver and black..
3. Pittsburgh Steelers- Julio Jones WR: Adding one of the best wide receivers in the game to a team with possibly the best quarterback to ever play the game is going to make the offense dangerous. We have seen what Tom Brady can do with receivers like Wes Welker, Julian Edelman, and Danny Amendola, now lets see what he can do with a receiver like Julio Jones. I'm excited to see this one.
2. Chicago Bears- Patrick Peterson CB: The Bears first round pick was kind of strange taking a young quarterback who has yet to prove himself, but this pick was smart. Selecting if not the best, one of the best cornerbacks in the NFL today is, well like I said, very smart. A great secondary is always the key to a great team and building it around Patrick Peterson is great.
1. New York Jets- Dez Bryant WR: Another top great pick from the Jets, last round they had number three, this round they have number one. In my opinion Dez is the best receiver in the game and it is bizarre to me that he didn't go in the first round. Being the first wide receiver to be drafted in the draft though, Dez is a threat to any defense and is almost impossible to lockdown.

TOP 5 PICKS OF ROUND 3

5. Baltimore Ravens- Jameis Winston QB: This is a top 5 pick to me because I believe that Winston has everything it takes to become one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL. In a couple of years the Ravens are going to be happy they made this pick and any team that passed him up will regret it. Shake your heads at me now but you will see!
4. New England Patriots- Bobby Wagner MLB: One of the key players to the 2013-2014 Seahawks defense, which need I remind you, they were probably the best defense the NFL has ever seen. Bobby Wagner has everything you need in a linebacker, he has speed, great vision, and he is a great tackler. Great pick by New England
3. Cleveland Browns- Odell Beckham Jr. WR: So first the browns take Calvin Johnson in round 2, and now they take Odell Beckham Jr. Not only is Odell young and fast, but he can also catch almost anything.. Actually let me rephrase that.. He can catch ANYHTING. Having receivers like Odell and Megatron on your team, you could even make the worst quarterback look great.
2. Chicago Bears- Ndamukong Suh DT: Suh is one of the NFL'S best defensive lineman and not only does he bring his amazing skill to your team, he also bring his mean toughness that gets into the other opponents heads. Suh is gonna do great things for the Bears, and hey.. He even gets to play the Lions twice a year.
1. New York Jets- Rob Gronkowski TE: Wow... Just Wow.. The Jets continue to amaze me in this draft. Having two of the most feared men by defenses on your offense is a great thing. Gronkowski is one of the toughest guys to defend in the league. The Jets deserve in A++ on this draft day.

Now that day one is over, we can ask you guys the questions. Which team had the best picks? Which teams had the best day? Which teams had the worst day? Give me your feedback on DAY 1 below!
