    NFL draft 2019 grades: Evaluating the Broncos and every other team’s picks By Ryan O’Halloran Denver Post April 29, 2019 A team-by-team recap of this weekend’s NFL draft: NFC Arizona Cardinals A — The Cardinals selected immediate starters/contributors with their first five picks: QB Kyler Murray, CB Byron Murphy, WR Andy Isabella, DE Zach Allen and WR Hakeem Butler. With play-caller/coach Kliff Kingsbury, the Cardinals may not be successful, but they’ll be interesting. Atlanta Falcons C-plus — The Falcons ignored cornerback until round 5 (Jordan Miller). First-rounders Chris Lindstrom (No. 14) and Kaleb McGary (No. 31 after a trade-up) will start at right guard and right tackle, respectively. Carolina Panthers B — Liked what the Panthers did early. DE Brian Burns will team with veteran Bruce Irvin to replace Julius Peppers. LT Greg Little will get a chance to beat out 2017 second-round pick Taylor Moton and QB Will Grier could stop the revolving back-up spot. Chicago Bears D — If you factor in the Khalil Mack trade (which costs them a first-round pick), the grade would be different. But the Bears had only five picks (one in the first 125). RB David Montgomery (round 3) will back up Mike Davis. Dallas Cowboys C — No first-round pick because of the Amari Cooper trade. The Cowboys had nine picks, but only two in the top 116. They chose two defensive ends (Joe Jackson and Jalen Jelks) and running backs (Tony Pollard and Mike Weber) apiece. Detroit Lions C-minus— Tough to be fired up about anything the Lions did after tight end T.J.

When Mom and Dad talked about knowing they were having a boy, Dad talked about what he was looking forward to. What things was he excited to do with his child based on the sex he assumed Jazz was? 2. Jazz’s dad talked about not wanting to go out into the world when Jazz was wearing a dress. Why do you think he felt that way? Do you think he would have felt that way had his daughter wanted to leave wearing pants? Why or why not? 3. Why do you think Jazz was not allowed to go to school “dressed as a girl”? Do you agree with them for doing that or do you think she should have been allowed to? Why or why not? 4. When talking to more than one person, you’ll notice they say “you guys.” This is used a lot in real life, too.
