Welcome to Monday's installment of the With the First Pick newsletter. As we near the commencement of the 2023 ,  Nick Markakis Jersey I'm warning you to keep your head on a swivel. Why? Because the seismic, big-time, draft-altering rumors are going to be flying through the air -- every. single. day. -- from now until draft night.You probably know this by now, but in case you don't: We've rebranded the Pick Six newsletter through the end of April. And I, CBS Sports NFL Draft analyst Chris Trapa so, will be with you every step of the way. This daily newsletter's sole purpose is to track everything transpiring in the and spin it into a draft angle. Before I begin, here's your daily reminder to tell all your buddies and that one uncle who's always texting you mock draft links to sign up for the With the First Pick newsletter. Justwith them.Given that the draft STARTS NEXT THURSDAY (!), everyone and anyone who covers the draft must pump out a seven-round mock by this week, and our very own Ryan Wilson is first up here at CBS Sports. , so get your blue-light blocking gla ses out before staring at this one.  In it, Ryan starts with C.J. Stroud, not Bryce Young, at No. 1 overall to the and has the circling back at No. 12 overall to select Ohio State receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Diving deep into this full mock, Jahmyr Gibbs and his comparisons land in an appropriate locale, New Orleans, in Round 2. At the quarterback spot, the pick Hendon Hooker in Round 3 and the snag Aidan O'Connell in Round 5.There's obviously A LOT to get to in this mock. I'll leave a few notable prospect-team pairings below:17. - Julius Brents, CB, Kansas State25. - Quentin Johnston, WR, TCU46. - Darnell Washington, TE, Georgia102. - Jayden Reed, WR, Michigan State158. - Jake Haener, QB, Fresno State  Cody Dale Murphy Jersey  Benjamin compiled answers from our NFL Draft analyst trio -- Ryan, Josh Edwards and myself -- on  using traits from only 2023 pa ser prospects.  R.A. Dickey Jersey To the surprise of absolutely no one, C.J. Stroud was the selection for the "accuracy" component, while Anthony Richardson was the easy choice in the "size" and "speed" categories. Other elements included "pocket presence," "poise," "arm strength and "leadership," among others.The quarterback we managed to construct -- and, yes, we used many more quarterbacks than just the top-four consensus pa sers -- would make for an incredibly clear decision for the Panthers at No. 1 overall. If only it were that simple.Notable combine results: 41.5-inch vertical, 11-foot-6 inch broad jump, 6.63 second three-coneCombine measurements: 6-foot-2 3/4" and 193 poundsCurrent CBS Sports prospect ranking:   Highlighting Brents because of his surprise, but certainly not crazy, inclusion in the first round of Ryan's seven-round mock. Take this with you into next Thursday night: Round 1 is often much more about traits than simply finding good football players. And what's great news for Brents ... he's a freaky athlete and quite good at football, too!Ironically, in a receiver cla s loaded with smaller, lighter prospects, the cornerback cla s is littered with tall, long outside prospects, and Brents is one of them (he has 34-inch arms!). While he was beaten for touchdowns relatively often in 2022, he countered with four picks and the same number of pa s breakups. Because of his uncoachable measurables, strong Senior Bowl showing, and monster combine, Brents is certainly on the "surprise first-round pick" radar. Smart for Ryan to fit him into Round 1..Josh Edwards recently analyzed four teams with multiple first-round selections -- Texans, , , and -- and ranked them in order of "opportunity" to make a sizable Scott Kazmir Jersey  impact on their respective rosters in this draft, from CBS Sports mad scientist R.J. White as a guide. Here's what Josh wrote about the Eagles, the club he has at No. 4 on the list:   agrees to mega extension.The five-year, $255 million deal features a whopping $179.304 million in guarantees, which slots only behind among all NFL players, and includes the first no-trade clause in Eagles history. Cha-ching. Read all about Hurts' record-setting deal, Steelers to trade up for Jalen Carter? Staying true to today's intro, here's a juicy rumor for you via NBC Sports' Peter King, who's been plugged into the league for-ev-er. King  the Steelers would move from No. 17 to No. 9 in a swap with the rebuilding to pick the former Georgia superstar. Told you! Seismic Draft Rumor SZN is upon us!  skipping part of offseason program. The All-Pro and former No. 3 overall pick wants a new deal and therefore the start of offseason work Bobby Cox Jersey  in Florham Park, New Jersey, for Gang Green.
