This is the easiest pick of all, even if some out there wants to try and pick the kid apart. He will make this franchise relevant for the next decade.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
I think he has more upside than Zach Wilson or Mac Jones. Wilson is slight of frame, which is a concern. Fields would be my pick if I were the GM.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
Adding a playmaker to the offense in Pitts would really make that side of the ball dynamic. With Julio Jones, Calvin Ridley and Pitts, Matt Ryan would be tough to stop.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
Most would take Penei Sewell in this spot, but I think Darrisaw will be the best tackle in this class. It’s a lot like last year when Tristan Wirfs was the best of the tackle group, but went last among the four taken in the first 13 picks. Darrisaw needs to get stronger in the run game, but this would allow them to move Jonah Williams to right tackle.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
They could go receiver here, but it’s a deep class. The tackle group isn’t nearly as good. When in doubt, take big people. This could mean Robert Hunt plays guard, which he can do.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
He’s the best of this class, and they have a major need. It would make a ton of sense to grab him here to help Jared Goff. Their receiver room needs a top dog.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
They have a major need at left tackle and Slater is a guy who can step in and play right away. He does have short arms, but he’s more than capable at left tackle.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
In this scenario, I have them sticking with Drew Lock for another year. He did throw seven touchdown passes against two picks in his final four games, which makes me intrigued. I like Davis more than Micah Parsons, which is why he would be my pick. Adding a big-time playmaking linebacker to their defense could really make it special.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
Get the best cover corner in the draft and don’t look back. Surtain will fill the corner spot for a long time. He is a smooth player who knows what it takes to play the position after years of watching his father.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
This would go against the grain when it comes to what Dave Gettleman would do, but they need to get a playmaker outside. With the top three tackles off the board, they decide to go with Smith.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
Their corner situation is a mess, so they have to get a top corner to go with Darius Slay. They could put Horn with Slay and keep Avonte Maddox inside as the nickel.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
Kirk Cousins has a bloated cap number next year, so why not prepare for life after him? Lance could use a year of seasoning, so it makes sense. This would be a pick for the future.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
If he fell to them, which I really don’t think will happen, they should be thrilled to get him here. This is where many expected him to go a month ago anyway.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
They would love to add some more speed to their offense, and Waddle would give them a Tyreek Hill-type of weapon. If he fell here, that Arizona offense will be tough to stop.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
They tried to fix the linebacker situation last year in free agency, but it didn’t work. Parsons has the speed teams love and they could take him here in this spot at great value.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
Their pass rush needs help, so why not take a local kid to help fix it. He has all the tools, but there were concussion issues in his past. In this scenario, the Dolphins would be taking two big people with their first two picks. Hey, the receiver class is deep.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
They need an upgrade at left tackle and Vera-Tucker did a nice job there last season for the Trojans. He can also play guard, which gives Washington some versatility.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
They need to get help up front at right tackle and Jenkins could step in and be an immediate starter. He plays with a nasty streak. I would also consider Stanford quarterback Davis Mills here.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
He didn’t put up great pass-rush numbers in college, but he has the tools to do so with some seasoning. He is a rugged player who plays hard all the time.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
This is a team in desperate need of improving the pass rush. Even after signing Bud Dupree, they need more help. Ojulari might end up as the best edge rusher in this class.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
Their linebacker group could use an upgrade, and Collins can also rush off the edge, which is a spot some scouts think he’d be best at playing. The Jets could also consider corner here.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
Their line is a mess. They have to get a left tackle and Cosmi has the tools to be a good, solid starter. They also have right tackle Zach Banner coming off a torn ACL. So offensive line is what it should be, even if running back might be tempting.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
They could opt for speed in this spot at receiver, but this is a deep draft in that area. So why not take the best defensive down player in the class? He just needs to be more consistent.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
They signed Takk McKinley and Jadeveon Clowney to one-year deals, but they aren’t in the long-term plans. Rousseau could be a rotational guy in 2021 who would give them a nice player for the future at a key spot to go with Myles Garrett.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
Their safeties are solid, but they need a ball hawk back there. Eric DeCosta loves to draft good players, regardless of position, and Moehrig is the best safety in this class.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
They need a corner who can step in and help right away. Newsome is a player NFL scouts really have talked up to me. In a division with Tom Brady, you have to be good on the corner.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
By drafting a player to replace Corey Linsley, they can maintain a good offensive line. Humphrey would be a perfect fit in their scheme with his ability to move.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
They have to get a corner to go with Tre’Davious White and I am a big fan of Samuel’s game. He plays the game a lot like his father, Asante Samuel Sr., did when he was in the league.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
They could be tempted to go edge here, but I didn’t like the guys left on the board. So I went with a speed receiver to help the passing game and Lamar Jackson.
Projected Team | PROSPECT RNK | POSITION RNK |
They have to get their quarterback of the future at some point. With most of the Super Bowl-winning team back, why not grab a quarterback I really like as a prospect to play when Tom Brady does finally walk away?
