NFL Draft: Grading each 2018 first-round pick after Week 11

After 11 weeks, we have a much better understanding of how each player taken in the 2018 NFL Draft fits with their club and assign each of them a grade for their play so far.

Championship teams are built through the NFL Draft, which is why the annual selection of collegiate entrants to the league has become such a spectacle in recent years. What was once a small blip across a news ticker has now turned into a weekend-long festivity that travels from city to city.

NFL towns are now fighting for the right to host the draft, which starts in prime time on Thursday Nights. Then after the first round is gone through that night, things start all over again on Friday night as Rounds two and three are taken care of.

Saturday becomes the longest day of the weekend as teams then select the final four rounds as four-through-seven are selected. After the conclusions of this, undrafted free agents are picked up as teams fill out their roster with the best young possible talent.

Then we get to pick apart everything that went on. From the selections to the trades made, we all have opinions on what our favorite teams accomplished — and what they may have missed out on.

Now after 11 weeks of the 2018 season is complete, we look back at that draft, but focus solely on the big selections that happened on the first night. Here we assign a grade for all 32 players taken in the first round of the 2018 NFL Draft.
