Later today, the free agency season in the NFL finally gets underway, which means that the 2018/19 season has officially begun.

On this day, many teams will fill holes that very much need to be plugged. Names like Kirk Cousins will receive boatloads of money - some teams will spend well, while other teams (especially those with a great deal of salary cap room) will likely overspend.

Once the free agency hype dies down, attention will turn to the NFL Draft. Who will be the first running back off the board? Who will be drafted at #1 overall? Who will be the first QB to be drafted?

It is widely expected that the Browns will take a QB with the #1 pick, with that QB likely sitting most of the first year on the sidelines while Tyrod Taylor handles the starting duties.

Saquon Barkley, on the other hand, is widely expected to land with the New York Giants.
