  1. Chicago Bears: Zach Harrison, DE, Ohio State
    The Bears need to continue adding the best talent at almost any position. They’re desperate for edge-rushing help.

    Zach Harrison has nice potential with his athletic ability.

    Pick change; previously Xavier Hutchinson, WR


  2. Houston Texans: Eli Ricks, CB, Alabama Alabama
    The Texans drafted Derek Stingley last year, but they were hurting for better play across from him.

    Eli Ricks is a 6-2 cornerback who had a breakout ’21 season for Alabama.

  3. Arizona Cardinals: Byron Young, DE, Tennessee Tennessee
    The Cardinals must improve their pass rush after losing Chandler Jones and J.J. Watt in consecutive offseasons.

    Byron Young is undersized, but has dangerous speed and athleticism.



  4. Indianapolis Colts: Ali Gaye, DE, LSU LSU
    Yannick Ngakoue could leave via free agency this offseason, so here’s a potential replacement.

    Ali Gaye has huge upside, but hadn’t lived up to it at LSU.

  5. New England Patriots: Wanya Morris, OT, Oklahoma Oklahoma
    The Patriots have a couple of free agent tackles, so they may pursue multiple offensive linemen.

    Wanya Morris needs to get stronger, but he’s an athletic blocker.



  6. Denver Broncos: Richard Gouraige, OT/G, Florida Florida
    The Broncos need to improve their offensive line to give Russell Wilson the best chance of living up to expectations.

    Richard Gouraige is a better run blocker than pass protector. He can move inside to guard.

  7. Las Vegas Raiders: Chris Rodriguez, RB, Kentucky Kentucky
    Josh Jacobs is set to hit free agency, so the Raiders will likely be looking to obtain another running back.

    Chris Rodriguez is a power back who gets nice yards after contact.



  8. Atlanta Falcons: Andrei Iosivas, WR, Princeton Princeton
    Calvin Ridley is gone, so Atlanta is in the market for another receiver.

    Andrei Iosivas has an impressive combination of size and speed.

  9. Cleveland Browns: Devon Achane, RB, Texas A&M TexasAM
    Kareem Hunt and D’Ernest Johnson are impending free agents, so the Browns will need another running back.

    Devon Achane can be a dynamic third-down back in the NFL.



  10. New York Jets: Jayden Reed, WR, Michigan State Michigan State
    There’s a chance the Jets could lose one of Corey Davis or Elijah Moore this offseason.

    Jayden Reed is a smaller receiver, but he’s also very dangerous in terms of breaking big plays.

  11. Atlanta Falcons: Rashee Rice, WR, SMU SMU
    I suspect the Falcons will double up on receivers during the 2023 NFL Draft.

    Rashee Rice projects as a solid No. 2 receiver in the NFL.

  12. Carolina Panthers: Tucker Kraft, TE, South Dakota State South Dakota State
    It’s been a long time since the Panthers have enjoyed good production from tight ends. Perhaps that’ll change soon.

    Tucker Kraft is raw, but possesses quality upside.

  13. New Orleans Saints: Stetson Bennett, QB, Georgia Georgia
    The Saints could target a quarterback earlier than this, as they’ll need to find a franchise signal-caller for the long term.

    Stetson Bennett was very clutch in big games for Georgia. He’ll look to become the next Brock Purdy or Colt McCoy.



  14. Green Bay Packers: Micah Baskerville, LB, LSU
    The Packers could stand to bolster the middle of the defense to help improve against the run.

    Micah Baskerville is a fast linebacker who hounded opposing running backs well at LSU.

    Pick change; previously Tyler Scott, WR

  15. New England Patriots: Rakim Jarrett, WR, Maryland Maryland
    The Patriots need to continue to bolster their dreadful receiving corps.

    Rakim Jarrett didn’t have big production this past year. He can play outside or in the slot.

  16. Washington Redskins: Sam LaPorta, TE, Iowa Iowa
    The Redskins are likely to lose Logan Thomas, but they needed a boost at tight end anyway.

    Sam LaPorta is a bit short for his position, but could be a quality receiving threat.

  17. Minnesota Vikings: Sydney Brown, S, Illinois Illinois
    The Vikings will almost certainly spend multiple picks to upgrade their troublesome secondary.

    Sydney Brown was a dynamic play-maker in his senior year.

  18. Pittsburgh Steelers: Andre Carter, DE/OLB, Army Army
    The Steelers were 8-2 with T.J. Watt last year, which means they were 1-6 without him. Better edge-rushing depth is needed.

    Andre Carter disappointed in his final season at Army.



  19. Jacksonville Jaguars: Brenton Cox, DE/OLB, Florida Florida
    Jacksonville could lose their pass-rushing depth to free agency, so they may want to find someone else to play on the edge.

    Brenton Cox has a nice skill set and plenty of athleticism and upside, but he comes with off-the-field issues.

  20. Kansas City Chiefs: Luke Schoonmaker, TE, Michigan Michigan
    Travis Kelce is entering his mid-30s, so the Chiefs may want to find a successor.

    Luke Schoonmaker did well in all regards when filling in for an injured Erick All.

  21. Seattle Seahawks: Jaren Hall, QB, BYU BYU
    Geno Smith had a great comeback story, but the Seahawks need a viable starting quarterback for the long term.

    Jaren Hall is a rushing threat who has a quality arm.

  22. Baltimore Ravens: Dawand Jones, OT, Ohio State Ohio State
    Baltimore could stand to improve its pass protection for whichever quarterback starts under center for them next year.

    Dawand Jones is a massive tackle who figures to have issues against speeed rushers.

  23. Los Angeles Chargers: Tyler Scott, WR, Cincinnati
    Keenan Allen may depart, so here’s a potential replacement for him.

    Tyler Scott is a small slot receiver, but he has major quickness.

    Pick change; previously Dontay Demus, WR

  24. Cleveland Browns: Charlie Jones, WR, Purdue Purdue
    The Browns are top-heavy at receiver, but don’t have much depth at the position.

    Charlie Jones is a shifty route-runner with reliable hands.

  25. Jacksonville Jaguars: Kei’Trel Clark, CB, Louisville Louisville
    Jacksonville struggled to stop the pass, so here’s some cornerback depth.

    Kei’Trel Clark is a smaller corner, but has great cover ability.

  26. New York Giants: Tre’Vius Hodges-Tomlinson, CB, TCU TCU
    The Giants never replaced James Bradberry. They could draft a cornerback much earlier than this.

    Tre’Vius Hodges-Tomlinson is only 5-9, but he has great coverage skills as a fast and athletic prospect.

  27. Dallas Cowboys: Demarco Hellams, S, Alabama Alabama
    Donovan Wilson is an impending free agent, so the Cowboys figure to target a safety at some point.

    Demarco Hellams needs to show improved pass-coverage ability.

  28. Buffalo Bills: Ji’Ayir Brown, S, Penn State Penn State
    The Bills have talented safeties, but they’re getting up there in age.

    Ji’Ayir Brown has great instincts, but he’s short and lacks length.

  29. Cincinnati Bengals: Matthew Bergeron, OT, Syracuse Syracuse
    The Bengals lost in the playoffs because they had injuries to their offensive line. Better depth is needed.

    Matthew Bergeron played both tackle spots at Syracuse. He has quality size.

    Pick change; previously Jordan McFadden, OT/G

  30. Carolina Panthers: Keeanu Benton, DT, Wisconsin Wisconsin
    The Panthers need to improve their play in the interior of their defense.

    Keeanu Benton has a nice skill set and upside.

  31. Philadelphia Eagles: Rashad Torrence, S, Florida Florida
    The Eagles have to improve their safety play, given their weakness to tight ends.

    Rashad Torrence is a very instinctive safety.

  32. Kansas City Chiefs: Habakkuk Baldonado, DE, Pittsburgh Pittsburgh
    The Chiefs’ pass rush improved late in the year, but it could still stand to be better.

    Habakkuk Baldonado is a huge disruptor in the trenches.
