I am College ignorant. I have not watched much a game outside of the Badgers. Who is good?

Thanks, but QB is the position I'm least worried about drafting. 😁

Try this list instead.

Bleacher Report thinks our top prospect is...

Pick - NFL - Team - Selection
29 - Green Bay Packers - Tim Williams, LB/DE, Alabama

Defense should definitely be priority #1. 👍

As stated in another thread:

Some guys with projected rounds that I am looking at that intrigue me:

Round 1: Takkarist McKinley OLB

Round 2: T.J Watt OLB (likely a move up scenario), Jourdan Lewis CB, Cooper Kupp WR

Round 3: Derek Rivers DE, Jordan Willis DE

Round 4: Adam Shaheen TE, Connor Harris ILB

Round 5-6: Dylan Donahue OLB, James Conner RB(injury and cancer history but looks like a pounder)

Round 6-7: Jordan Morgan OG, Jerry Ogokwe OT(seems like a great project super big tall dude)

I selected quite a few small school guys, but I think that in some areas we can take a bit of a risk that guys who are big dogs in smaller programs can help us if we give them a year to develop and not be pressured to contribute right away.

I like the idea of getting a pass rusher early.

From Walter:

29 Green Bay Packers: Sidney Jones, CB, Washington
The Packers' problems at cornerback are pretty well documented. Sam Shields may never play again, and reports have indicated that he'll be released this offseason. Fortunately for Green Bay, there are a number of talented corners expected to be available at the end of the first round.

But yeah, I'm just curious who the studs are and who is probably over rated, etc ...
