- Jacksonville Jaguars - QB Trevor Lawrence - best quarterback prospect to come out since Andrew Luck, easiest pick in the past 5 years.
- New York Jets - QB Zach Wilson - As much as the team says they like Sam Darnold, it’s a new regime in New York and Wilson is an incredible talent. I think he’d be better than Darnold in a SF based offense as well, this opens the team up for a Darnold trade to add even more draft capital.
- San Francisco 49ers - QB Trey Lance - Yes you gotta think that Justin Fields is certainly in play here but Lance doesn’t turn the football over. While this could go either way, the 9ers didn’t make a massive trade up to not take a quarterback. I think they go with Lance.
- Denver Broncos (TRADE UP WITH ATLANTA) - QB Justin Fields. I just can’t see this not being a trade down for the Falcons. The Broncos can say whatever they want about Drew Lock but Fields upside is through the roof and it’s time this team makes a move.
- Cincinnati Bengals - OT Penei Sewell - He’s the best offensive line prospect I’ve ever scouted and the team absolutely needs an upgrade on the offensive line in a big way.
- LA Chargers - WR Jamarr Chase - Pairing up Herbert with yet another superstar receiver gives them the best receiving corps in the NFL
- Detroit Lions - LB Micah Parsons - The team wants to become a super physical team and they have a huge hole at Linebacker, this is the pick here even though the team desperately needs WR help. They can add to that spot in round 2 or 3 but Parsons is a special talent.
- Carolina Panthers - TE Kyle Pitts. The team needs a quarterback in a major way as Teddy has shown he’s nothing more than a game manager. The team has a major hole in the middle of the field now and Pitts is a unique talent at the tight end/slot position.
- Atlanta Falcons - CB Patrick Surtain - Yes they could certainly go with an offensive player here or even a wide receiver. The team instead upgrades a terrible secondary with the most NFL ready DB in the draft.
- Dallas Cowboys - CB Jaycee Horn - It could be Caleb Farley as well without question but the Cowboys have to improve defensively. Horn is insanely talented and didn’t opt out this season. There has to be a random ass move in the top 10, this could be it.
- New York Giants - DE Kwity Paye - The team needs help in a few spots and this may be Slater or Vera-Tucker but again the NFL draft is super random and Paye is extremely talented. The Giants have a major hole at pass rusher and have for a long time.
- Philadelphia Eagles - CB Caleb Farley - If they are going to play that much press man coverage they have to get someone who can actually play that role. A wide receiver makes a ton of sense here too but their DB’s were god awful last year.
- 3GML Houston Texans - DE Gregory Rousseau - The Texans list of edge rushers right now are literally the worst in the NFL. Rousseau is still raw but he was insanely productive at Miami and the Texans have a high first round grade on the Hurricane prospect.
- Minnesota Vikings - G/T Alijah Vera-Tucker - Tucker is someone who likely will kick inside at the next level but he’s an athletic quick guy who could help this team immediately with the scheme they play.
- 3GML Miami Dolphins - G/T Rashawn Slater - A versatile tough smart offensive lineman is a perfect move for a Dolphins team that loves to run the football. This may be a dream scenario for the Fins.
- Arizona Cardinals - WR Jaylen Waddle - I could see this being a defensive player, particularly an edge rusher but with two big physical receivers they need a burner and nobody is faster running routes than Waddle.
- Las Vegas Raiders - S Trevon Moehrig - The Raiders have holes all over the place on defense but decided to go with Moehrig who is the higher floor player here.
- 3GML Texans - LB Zaven Collins - The Texans linebackers right now are not very good and the team needs front 7 help in a big way. Collins can play on the edge or off ball as an incredible coverage guy with massive size and athleticism.
- Washington Football Team - WR Devonte Smith - The best route runner and Heisman trophy winner would provide a gigantic upgrade for the WFT. Adding Sameul this offseason was a big addition, and moving Smith to that WR room is a huge boost and a steal this late in the process.
- Chicago Bears - QB Mac Jones - The Bears get really lucky here and stand pat and still get someone who can be their quarterback of the future. They were looking at maybe adding a quality WR but stay with Jones as they’re in desperate need of someone to be their future at the position.
- Indianapolis Colts - OT Christian Darrisaw - A Colts team that has been built along the offensive line needs a big boost at LT after Castonzo retired. This would be a seamless transition.
- Tennessee Titans - WR Rashod Bateman - The team looks to replace a big physical fast receiver in Corey Davis with maybe a more refined version of him at 22.
- New York Jets - LB Jeremiah Owusu Koramoah - The Jets are going to need some speed on that defense in order to run that C3 scheme their bringing over from SF. He’s exceptionally athletic and can do a ton of different things in this system.
- Pittsburgh Steelers - OT Teven Jenkins - The team lost Feiler and Villanueva at this point and really need a physical player at the point. While I think this is a bit of a reach, the physicality is important and he can slide right into the RT slot, kicking Chuks over to LT.
- Jacksonville Jaguars - DE Jayson Oweh - Obviously there are some thoughts on adding help to Trevor Lawrence but the Jags couldn’t get after the quarterback. Oweh is maybe the most impressive H/W/S athlete in this entire class.
- Cleveland Browns - DE Azeez Ojulari - The Browns have to find someone on the other end who can keep teams from double teaming Garrett consistently.
- Baltimore Ravens - WR Terrance Marshall - The team couldn’t really bring in big help at WR this offseason because it turns out WR’s don’t want to go to teams that never throw the freaking ball. Marshall is a solid WR2 type guy who can really help and fits the mold of what this team is looking for at WR.
- New Orleans Saints - WR Kadarius Toney - This team completely relies on people who can run after the catch and they need separators in a big way. Toney will give them someone who can do a bit more and create open throwing windows in a way nobody has in years for New Orleans.
- Tampa Bay Buccaneers - DB Elijah Molden - The team has virtually zero holes and so therefore it goes for someone who can play multiple spots in the back end. He’s obviously best suited to be a slot corner but his physicality means he can play in 4,5, or 6 man defensive backfields.
- Buffalo Bills - RB Travis Etienne - The only real roster hole on this team is at pass rusher and running back and they decide to give Josh Allen yet another toy here with the quickest and most accomplished back in the draft.
- Kansas City Chiefs - OT Dillon Radunz - The team cut both its starting tackles and we saw what happened when they were getting killed by four man pressure in the Super Bowl. Radunz is a small school kid but can really play, the question is whether or not he can play tackle at the NFL level.
- Green Bay Packers 3GML - DE Jaelen Phillips - The Packers won the last two 3GML titles by being a team with insane receivers and the best pass rush in NFL history. They can’t rely on Harold Landry to put up 20 sacks again, or Geno Atkins to get them double figures anymore. Phillips is raw as hell but supremely talented and he’ll be an athletic upgrade over everyone on their front.
