The New York Jets and head coach Aaron Glenn land the first of two defensive studs in the first round. Todd Monken’s Cleveland Browns make a pair of franchise-changing selections. Jerry Jones and the Dallas Cowboys address their biggest weaknesses with both of their first-round picks. The Rams shock the world with their second selection. The Philadelphia Eagles prepare for life without a future Hall of Famer in the trenches. The Kyle Shanahan’s San Francisco 49ers foil Joe Brady, Josh Allen and the rest of Bills Mafia with a trade to land a potential star wide receiver.
