2018 NFL Mock Draft: 1st-Round Predictions and Prospects in Danger of Falling

Heading into the NFL draft, there are certain players who you can make a confident estimate about where they might be drafted.

Below you'll find a first-round mock draft, but we'll also look at three players who could potentially fall down the board for one reason or another.
