NFL draft 2022 buzz notebook, rumors and first-round chaos picks – Updates on Travon Walker, Kyle Hamilton, Kaiir Elam, Drake Jackson – ESPN

Who doesn’t love some chaos in the NFL draft? That’s among the topics analysts Matt Miller and Jordan Reid are talking through in this week’s notebook, looking at the pivot picks in Round 1 that could shake up the rest of the class. We’re talking about the what-if scenarios that might cause other teams to scramble, including what could happen at Nos. 1 and 2, where there’s still some mystery.

With less than two weeks until Round 1 begins on April 28 (8 p.m. ET on ESPN and ABC), Miller and Reid also discuss the most likely team to trade up, contemplate pick floors for top defenders Derek Stingley Jr., Kayvon Thibodeaux and Kyle Hamilton and dive into everything else they heard over the past week. Those notes include nuggets on Travon Walker, Kaiir Elam, Drake Jackson, Nick Cross and more prospects, along with which players the Cowboys and Giants might be targeting with their first-round selections.
