Every year I try to refrain from doing these damn things. Especially this early. Every year I just can't help myself. It's very sad. Here's a way too early Mock of the 2016 NFL Draft.

9. Tampa Bay Buccaneers-Kevin Dodd, DE, Clemson
10. New York Giants-Ezekiel Elliott, RB, Ohio St.

28. Kansas City Chiefs-Jerran Reed, DT, Alabama
29. Arizona Cardinals-Leonard Floyd, LB, Georgia
30. Carolina Panthers-Noah Spence, DE, Eastern Kentucky
31. Denver Broncos-Jack Conklin, T, Michigan St.
It's a start.
It feels a little odd, but also somewhat natural, to type/say Los Angeles Rams.
Seeing two teams that were in the Super Bowl only three years ago, Ravens and 49ers, drafting at #6 and #7 is a little shocking. Fortunes can change so fast.
As for the Minnesota Vikings selection of Mississippi receiver Laquon Teadwell. I doubt that it happens. If the draft were held today, maybe Treadwell drops to #23. I don't think that he drops in late April. I also don't see only one receiver going in the first round. This year's receiver group isn't as strong as the past two but it's not that weak.
As a Bronco fan, OT Jason Spriggs of Indiana would be a better scheme fit than Conklin, who is considered a RT only.
