AFC East

AFC South

AFC North

Pittsburgh Steelers

A+

It was a home run draft, and every pick they made made the Steelers scream. First-round offensive lineman Troy Fatanu will make an immediate impact.

Baltimore Ravens

A-

In Ravens form, they had another good draft. Nate Wiggins is the best man corner in the class, and they excel in the trenches.

Cleveland Browns

b-

The Browns don't have many needs on their roster, so they got good depth pieces.

Cincinnati Bengals

b-

The Bengals got the offensive tackle of the future in Amarius Mims and some depth pieces to play with if they need to.

AFC West

Kansas City Chiefs B+ Getting Xavier Worthy opens up the passing game downfield. The Chiefs grabbed good footballers along with their other picks.
Los Angeles Chargers B It will be interesting to see if Joe Alt can switch from RT to LT. Ladd McConkey gives you a playmaker on the outside.
Las Vegas Raiders D No point in taking Brock Bowers. The Raiders didn't take a shot at a QB.
Denver Broncos D Taking the Bo Knicks at 12 is a reach. Also, despite the Knicks' teammate in Troy Franklin, not taking a WR until the fourth round is troubling.
