The NFL Draft has come and gone. Who won? Who lost? We take a look at the winners and losers of the NFL Draft.

Cleveland Browns

The Cleveland Browns are the talk of the NFL draft. They selected Myles Garrett with the first overall pick, and then took Jabrill Peppers with the 25th pick. They also traded for quarterback Brock Osweiler and wide receiver Corey Coleman.

Myles Garrett

Myles Garrett was selected by the Cleveland Browns with the first overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft. He is an American football defensive end.

Jabrill Peppers

Jabrill Peppers, who played safety, linebacker and running back for Michigan, was drafted by the Cleveland Browns with the 25th pick in the first round of the N.F.L. draft on Thursday night.

Peppers won the 2016 Paul Hornung Award, given to the most versatile player in college football, and was a finalist for the Heisman Trophy, which is awarded to the most outstanding player in Division I football. He was considered one of the top prospects in this year’s draft.

David Njoku

David Njoku (born July 10, 1996) is an American football tight end for the Cleveland Browns of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at Miami, and was drafted by the Browns in the first round of the 2017 NFL Draft.

San Francisco 49ers

The San Francisco 49ers won the NFL draft. They got the first pick and they took Buckner with it. They also got the second pick and took Jacobs. They got the third pick and took Tartt. They got the fourth pick and took Aiyuk. They got the fifth pick and took Ward.

Reuben Foster

Reuben Foster was a highly touted prospect coming into the 2017 NFL Draft. He was considered one of the best linebackers in the draft and was projected to be a first-round pick. The San Francisco 49ers selected Foster with the 31st overall pick in the first round.

Foster had an Injury-riddled college career, missing significant time due to a shoulder injury and a concussion. However, when he was on the field, he was electric, racking up over 100 tackles in both his sophomore and junior seasons.

Foster has the potential to be a really special player in the NFL. He is an exceptional talent with great size, speed, and instincts. If he can stay healthy, he has the ability to be one of the best linebackers in the league for many years to come.

Solomon Thomas

The San Francisco 49ers selected Stanford Cardinal defensive end Solomon Thomas with the third overall pick of the 2017 NFL Draft.

Thomas was considered one of the best defensive prospects in the draft, and should immediately bolster a 49ers defensive line that struggled mightily in 2016. He’s expected to step into a starting role right away and become an impact player for years to come.

John Lynch

John Lynch (born September 25, 1971) is an American football executive and former safety who is the current general manager of the San Francisco 49ers of the National Football League (NFL). He played college football at Stanford University, and was drafted by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the third round of the 1993 NFL Draft. Lynch was a nine-time Pro Bowl selection and five-time first-team All-Pro during his 15-year playing career. He later served as a color commentator for Fox Sports’s NFL broadcasts from 2008 to 2016.

On January 29, 2017, Lynch was named as the general manager of the 49ers. In his first year as general manager in 2017, he was namedExecutive of the Year by Pro Football Focus after helping turn around a 2–14 team from 2016 to a 13–3 record and an appearance in Super Bowl LIV in just one year.

Chicago Bears

The Chicago Bears had a great NFL draft. They got a lot of good players that will help them win games.

Mitchell Trubisky

The 2017 NFL Draft was the 82nd annual meeting of National Football League (NFL) franchises to select newly eligible football players. It was held in front of the Philadelphia Museum of Art on April 27–29, returning to Philadelphia for the first time since 1961.[1][2]

The draft was moved out of New York City’s Radio City Music Hall due to a scheduling conflict at the venue, caused by preparations for the 2017 Tony Awards, which are also held at Radio City Music Hall and were broadcast on CBS on June 11, 2017.

The draft featured a record-setting number of trades, as well as the departure of several teams from their traditional drafting positions. The Chicago Bears traded up from the third pick to select quarterback Mitchell Trubisky with the second pick. Later in the same draft, they traded additional picks to take tight end Adam Shaheen in the second round and running back Tarik Cohen in the fourth round.[3]

Adam Shaheen

The Chicago Bears selected Ashland tight end Adam Shaheen with the 45th overall pick in the second round of the NFL draft Friday night.

Shaheen (6-6, 278) is a two-time All-American who caught 57 passes for 867 yards and 16 touchdowns last season. He played his first two college seasons as a defensive lineman before transitioning to tight end.

Tarik Cohen

With the 119th pick in the 2017 NFL Draft, the Chicago Bears selected running back Tarik Cohen out of North Carolina A&T. Cohen was a First Team All-American and MEAC Offensive Player of the Year in 2016. He led the FCS in rushing yards (1,588) and all-purpose yards (2,639) last season.

Jacksonville Jaguars

The Jaguars had the first pick in the 2021 NFL Draft and selected Clemson quarterback Trevor Lawrence. Jacksonville also had the No. 25 overall pick, which they used on Ohio State running back Trey Sermon.

Leonard Fournette

The Jaguars selected LSU running back Leonard Fournette with the fourth overall pick in the 2017 NFL draft.

Fournette was widely considered one of the top prospects in this year’s class, and he should immediately step into a lead role in Jacksonville’s backfield. He’s a big, physical runner with breakaway speed, and he should be a workhorse for the Jaguars offense.

Fournette had an up-and-down 2016 season at LSU, but he still finished with 1,953 rushing yards and 22 touchdowns. He also caught 32 passes for 403 yards and three scores.

For his career, Fournette rushed for 3,830 yards and 40 touchdowns, while adding 41 catches for 526 yards and four touchdowns.

Cam Robinson

With the 34th pick in the second round of the 2016 NFL Draft, the Jacksonville Jaguars traded back twice and then selected Alabama offensive tackle Cam Robinson.

Robinson was a three-year starter for the Crimson Tide, starting every game at left tackle over his junior and senior seasons. He was a consensus All-American in 2016 and a finalist for the Outland Trophy, which is awarded to the nation’s best interior lineman.

At 6’6” and 327 pounds, Robinson has good size for an NFL offensive tackle. He is a strong run blocker and has the athleticism to hold his own in pass protection. However, he needs to improve his technique and footwork if he wants to be successful at the next level.

The Jaguars hope that Robinson can step in and start at left tackle right away. If he can improve his technique and footwork, he has the potential to be a very good offensive tackle in the NFL.

Dawuane Smoot

The Jacksonville Jaguars drafted Dawuane Smoot with the 68th overall pick in the third round of the 2017 NFL Draft.

Tennessee Titans

The Tennessee Titans won the NFL draft this year. This is the first time they have ever won the draft, and they are very excited about it. The Titans are a very good team, and they are going to be very good this year. The Titans are going to be very tough to beat this year.

Corey Davis

With the fifth overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft, the Tennessee Titans chose Corey Davis, a wide receiver out of Western Michigan. The Titans were widely expected to take either Davis or Mike Williams with this pick, and they ultimately decided on Davis. He is the first receiver to be drafted in 2017, and he is also the first player from Western Michigan to be drafted in the first round.

Adoree’ Jackson

The Tennessee Titans selected Adoree’ Jackson with the 18th pick in the first round of the 2017 NFL Draft. Jackson was the third cornerback taken in the draft, and the first defensive back off the board in the draft’s second half.

A two-time All-American and three-time Pac-12 champion, Jackson was one of the most decorated players in college football over his three seasons at USC. He was a two-time winner of the Jim Thorpe Award, which is given to college football’s top defensive back, and was also a two-time finalist for the Paul Hornung Award, which is given to college football’s most versatile player.

Taywan Taylor

Taylor was drafted by the Titans in the seventh round with the 241st overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft. He played college football at LSU.
