SIGN UP Another key story involved Shedeur Sanders, who is still on the draft board after several teams opted not to take him. The Giants, New Orleans Saints and Pittsburgh Steelers were among the quarterback-needy franchises, but all went elsewhere.
Let's analyze the first round of the further with winners and losers:
WINNER: Raiders get their RB1
Las Vegas has long needed an identity, a reason for its fans to push the team forward. It took a step in the right direction with the pick of Ashton Jeanty at No. 6 overall. The Boise State running back did not win the Heisman last season but was a top pick to lift it. Nonetheless, Jeanty joins Pete Carroll, Geno Smith and Co. in what's expected to be a new-look Raiders team. It's unclear how competitive Las Vegas will be in a tight AFC West, but Jeanty pushes the needle toward the playoffs -- and that's what the franchise needs more of.
LOSER: Trades
As aforementioned, trades were heavily teased to shake up the NFL draft. One NFL source even told ESPN's Adam Schefter to "expect explosives" within the top 10. But all the hype just ended up with the Jaguars-Browns trade, as it saw Colorado prospect Hunter head to Florida rather than Ohio. Trades became more apparent toward the last 10 picks of the round, but it didn't live up to the hype as expected.
WINNER: Giants add two potential cornerstones
New York, like Las Vegas, has also been missing an identity dating back to the Eli Manning days. But the Giants took Penn State EDGE Abdul Carter at No. 3 to bolster their defensive line, while also trading back into the first round with the Houston Texans to grab Jaxson Dart at No. 25. Dart, like Manning, is an Ole Miss product, so one similarity is there. But Dart needs more polishing over the years, with Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston also in the QB room.
LOSER: Bears' TE1 choice
After the collapsed last season before the campaign even ended, lots of talk surrounded Caleb Williams and the offense. Do they need more offensive lineman? Or better weapons for Williams? Chicago opted for a tight end, making Colston Loveland of Michigan its pick at No. 10 overall. While Loveland has potential, arguably the best tight end in this class was Penn State's Tyler Warren. Warren went four picks later to the Indianapolis Colts, so there will be comparisons to come.

WINNER: Offensive linemen
The past few years have seen offensive linemen play come into scrutiny with quarterbacks of all talents struggling in different scenarios. Eight teams bolstered their quarterback protection by adding to the line:
- No. 4: T Will Campbell (LSU) to the
- No. 7: T Armand Membou (Missouri) to the
- No. 9: T Kelvin Banks Jr. (Texas) to the New Orleans Saints
- No. 12: G Tyler Booker (Alabama) to the Dallas Cowboys
- No. 18: G Grey Zabel (North Dakota State) to the Seattle Seahawks
- No. 24: G Donovan Jackson (Ohio State) to the Minnesota Vikings
- No. 29: T Josh Conerly Jr. (Oregon) to the
- No. 32: T Josh Simmons (Ohio State) to the Kansas City Chiefs
LOSER: Shedeur Sanders
Sanders before the draft on social media: "I'm built for whatever today may bring." After being touted as a potential top-10 -- even high as top five -- pick, Sanders, the son of Deion "Prime" Sanders, did not hear his name called in a stunning twist of events. The reason for Sanders' fall is not explicitly known, but the 23-year-old can either use this moment as fuel or falter. A video posted on social media indicates it could be the former, as he will have eyes on him wherever he ends up.
