Every NFL team needs improvement to win the Super Bowl, and the draft is key. The Arizona Cardinals, New York Giants, and Washington Redskins picked quarterbacks in the first round, while teams like the Atlanta Falcons, Minnesota Vikings, and Philadelphia Eagles focused on linemen. The 2019 NFL Draft's seven rounds were all about projecting and guessing on lesser-known players who could become stars. The New England Patriots may have found their next Tom Brady in quarterback Jarrett Stidham, taken in the fourth round. The Jacksonville Jaguars waited until Round 6 to pick up Gardner Minshew. As the 2019 NFL season approaches, it's unclear how these picks will pan out, but that's the excitement of the draft. Until the season starts, no one knows for sure, but it's intriguing to consider which teams actually got better and which are just pretending. So, which team improved the most? Which team won the 2019 NFL Draft?
