1. Cardinals — Kyler Murray, QB, Oklahoma: The rumors, misdirection and assumptions can finally be put to bed — after an extra 15 minutes of drama. Murray, who followed Baker Mayfield to the Heisman Trophy stage, also follows him as the top pick of the NFL draft — the first time a school has had quarterbacks go No. 1 in back-to-back years.
3. Jets — Quinnen Williams, DT, Alabama: Arguably the best overall player in this draft, the Crimson Tide star heads to New York after emerging as a force in 2018, when he had eight sacks and 19½ tackles for loss. A 6-3, 303-pounder, Williams posted an amazing 4.83 40 time at the scouting combine, which speaks to the type of athlete he is. He joins a defense with DL Leonard Williams, S Jamal Adams and free agent addition LB C.J. Mosley.
