NFL draft biggest questions from Round 1: Debating first-round steals, risky picks, wild trades, receiver landing spots, QB slides, more

Things certainly got interesting in a hurry on Thursday night during Round 1 of the 2022 NFL draft. We saw five defenders off the board to kick off the draft, starting with Georgia's Travon Walker to the Jaguars. Then came a run on offensive tackles, followed by a run on wide receivers. And we waited until pick No. 20 for the first -- and only -- quarterback, with the Steelers taking Pitt's Kenny Pickett. But the story of Day 1 was probably the trades, trades and more trades -- including a few for big-name NFL receivers.
