Rapid fire thoughts from fantasy relevant picks from last night in a thread:
Tee Higgins-may not have an amazing year one but long term being tied to Burrow and opposite Boyd is excellent.
John Ross and Auden Tate are likely roster cloggers now.

Michael Pittman-again probably not the best landing spot in year one but I bet he can at least out produce Parris Campbell.
Combined with Jonathan Taylor the colts are building a nice foundation for their next starter.

D'Andre Swift-something about Lions RBs scares me for fantasy but it's a good spot. I wonder what the plan is for Kerryon if there is one.
Jonathan Taylor-easily the 1.01 in non SF drafts. Excellent spot for both now and the future. Marlon Mack's stock is fading very quickly.
Laviska Shenault- glad to see Minshew get another weapon. Should help take some defensive attention off Chark. Might hurt Fournette's receptions if he's not traded and they get creative with Shenault.
Cole Kmet-can I just say meh for both the pick and his fantasy perspective? Could be fine but man it was a reach. He has the capital now though.
KJ Hamler-as much as I don't see it with Lock the Broncos certainly surrounded him with weapons. I'm just not sure Lock is capable of making Sutton, Jeudy, Fant, and a 3rd WR all fantasy relevant. Makes me not super interested in Hamler.
Chase Claypool-I hope the intention is to use him as a tight end or this move doesn't make much sense to me. If he's a TE could be good for fantasy but would have Ebron to compete with for now.
Cam Akers-love this pick. Think the Rams offense will bounce back this season and he will be a beneficiary. Not good for Darrell Henderson.
Jalen Hurts-this one hurts. I wanted him to go to the Saints, Bucs, Steelers, or Pats. Wentz does get injured a lot though.
JK Dobbins-what a great landing spot for him. The Ravens just make good picks and he's now part of their explosive offense. Mark Ingram is on notice. Justice Hill is likely never a thing.
Van Jefferson-The Rams needed another WR but he will be behind the pecking order of Kupp, Woods, and the TEs. Not all that interested.
Denzel Mims-I can only hope Gase is fired. Still a solid spot for instant volume and a chance to become the Alpha. Helps Darnold a lot.
AJ Dillon-yikes Packers but at least they're setting up not to give Aaron Jones a second contract. I like Jones but we've seen that be historically a mistake.
Antonio Gibson-nice piece for Washington. Could do worse than taking a chance on him since they need someone other than McLaurin to make plays.
Ke'Shawn Vaughn-wasn't high on him before the draft. The landing spot makes him interesting but think he and Rojo end up splitting.
Lynn Bowden-two concerns 1) are the raiders creative enough to use him properly 2) did they just pull a Cardinals and draft a bunch of wrs who won't get used? Does help Carr/Mariota/future QB
Bryan Edwards-see thoughts on Bowden except I was higher on Bowden. Also think he could emerge as the WR1 there.
Zack Moss-I liked what I saw out of Singletary but this complicated things. I'd take whichever of the two is now cheaper.
Devin Asiasi-Patriots needed a TE and he's intriguing. Entire team on rebuild pretty much. Going to be fascinating to watch.
Darryton Evans-not sure he will live up to his predraft hype now but there's a role there for him. Probably an RB3 or 4 for fantasy purposes.
Josiah Degura-rather have Jace Sternberger and that's not saying a ton.
Dalton Keene-think AsiAsi will be the guy but you never know.
Adam Trautman-solid landing spot. Just hope it's someone other than Taysom Hill throwing him the ball next season.
Devin Duvernay-Ravems needed playmakers but he's likely behind Andrews and Brown.
