Ty Simpson to be picked “top 11 pick” (picks 1–11)

I have a certain player that we're not really seeing talked about as a top 11 pick that I think there is a pretty decent chance that he will be a top 11 pick. Ty Simpson.

Ty Scott to be picked at number 29

Arvell Reese to be picked at number 2

I also think, and this is kinda something I mentioned in the first segment, he's more likely going to the Jets at two.

Jordyn Tyson to be picked “top 10” (picks 1–10)

there are a couple of significant factors there that I think make it a possibility that maybe Tyson is in the top 10 now

Mike Washington to be picked at number 84

Now, by the way, that's right in the range where the Packers pick in the third round. And so I don't think it would be surprising if they took him at 84.

Carnell Tate to be 1st wide receiver off the board

I think Carnell Tate will be the first wide receiver taken most likely, but Tyson has something that Mekhi Lemmon doesn't have
