The first night of the 2023 NFL Draft was unpredictable.
The Houston Texans trading up the draft board to make two top-3 picks? Mildly unexpected.
The Atlanta Falcons standing pat at No. 8 to make Bijan Robinson the highest drafted running back since Saquon Barkley? OK, that was a little more of a shocker.
The Detroit Lions, loaded with second-round picks, drafting two talents expected to last until Day 2 in the top 20? Wild!
That action left plenty of presumptive first-round picks like Joey Porter Jr., Brian Branch, Michael Mayer and, of course, Will Levis to linger to the second round. Several fortune-changing talents remain available for the franchises smart enough to gamble on them. Who’ll go where — and what’s our knee-jerk reaction to each pick? Friends, we’ve got you covered below.
