The Senior Bowl is bound to have a significant impact on this 2017 NFL mock draft and subsequent ones moving forwards.

Some of the top prospects still haven’t quite emerged yet but that is starting to change as the off-season approaches. Nothing has changed regarding the first pick, which isn’t a surprise. The surprises only start right after it with a number of unexpected trades for even more unexpected players. It certainly lends a great level of intrigue of just how crazy the top of this draft could get in the next few months.

1. Cleveland Browns

Myles Garrett . 1. player. 53. Many scouts and executives have already hinted for weeks that they would be absolutely floored if the Cleveland Browns pass on Myles Garrett at the #1 pick in the draft. Most of that centers around the belief that he’s head and shoulders above the other prospects in the draft class in terms of talent and prove productivity. A blue chipper. He’s big enough to play defensive end but athletic enough to play linebacker. One of those rare players who transcend schemes. <p>There is no telling what Gregg Williams would be able to do with him. Well, sure there is. Damage. Lots of damage. It’s no secret the Browns need a quarterback. They’ve needed one for decades. That said they have the #12 pick in the draft too and as of now there isn’t a QB in this draft class who has made it appear they’re worth spending the 1st overall pick on. Thus the logic holds it can, should and will be Garrett.</p>. DE. Texas A&amp;M
