Pick Analysis. 19. Scouting Report. LB. Kentucky. Jamin Davis. player. 58

As I said earlier, If you don’t know about the stud Kentucky linebacker, you better get used to him. He has been one of the fastest risers in the pre-draft process. I wouldn’t say he’s a lock to hear his name called on Thursday night, yet I’d say there’s a very good possibility.

Full transparency: I’m torn between Davis and Christian Darrisaw. I mostly expect this selection to come down between the two of them. For as big a hole on Washington’s offensive line, there may be just as big a hole in their linebacker room.

This may not necessarily be the pick I would make, but it’s one I’m predicting, sort of. I can even see them trading up to snag a quarterback, though they may be better off continuing to fill holes on the roster while targeting a player like Kyle Trask later.

Besides, they have Ryan Fitzpatrick. As important as it is to protect FitzMagic, prepare yourself for Davis to slide into the top 20. For now, I have that being at No. 19.

Alternative picks: Christian Darrisaw, Teven Jenkins, trade up for a QB
