  1. Tennessee Titans: Durell Eskridge, S, Syracuse
    The Titans desperately need to find some help in the secondary at both corner and safety. The latter position is the bigger area of need.

    Pick change; previously Chris Hackett, S

  2. New England Patriots: Eric Rowe, CB/S, Utah
    The Patriots didn’t franchise Devin McCourty, so here’s a potential replacement if the talented safety leaves via free agency.

    Pick change; previously Henry Anderson, DE/DT

  3. Oakland Raiders: Tyeler Davison, DT, Fresno State
    The Raiders addressed their exterior pass rush earlier, but they need to add players to bolster the middle of their defensive front.

  4. Jacksonville Jaguars: Trey Flowers, DE/OLB, Arkansas
    The Jaguars need to add an edge rusher at some point. Chris Clemons, who was inconsistent this past year, won’t be around much longer.



  5. New York Jets: Bryce Petty, QB, Baylor
    The Jets have to pick a quarterback at some point. That can be done in pretty much any round.

  6. Washington Redskins: Donovan Smith, OT, Penn State
    The Redskins can’t go too deep into the draft without addressing their anemic offensive front. They have to make sure Robert Griffin stays healthy for a change.

  7. Chicago Bears: Joey Mbu, NT, Houston
    The Bears are moving to a 3-4 defense under new coordinator Vic Fangio. They’ll need many pieces for this scheme, as their defense currently has next to no talent. One big hole happens to be at the nose tackle position, as Chicago lacks a monstrous lineman to clog running lanes.

    Pick change; previously Shane Carden, QB

  8. Atlanta Falcons: Obum Gwachum, DE, Oregon State
    The Falcons have to make major improvements to their pass rush, so they could double up on edge players.

  9. New York Giants: Derron Smith, S, Fresno State
    New York’s top three safeties all have expiring contracts. Antrel Rolle was coming off a down year, anyway.

    Pick change; previously Durell Eskridge, S

  10. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Charles Gaines, CB, Louisville
    Johnthan Banks hasn’t lived up to his second-round billing yet. A mid-round pick could be used on competition.

    Pick change; previously Jacoby Glenn, CB

  11. Minnesota Vikings: Ray Drew, DT, Georgia
    The Vikings could use some depth in the interior of their defensive line, as Tom Johnson happens to be an impending free agent.

    Pick change; previously Gabe Wright, DT

  12. Cleveland Browns: Clive Walford, TE, Miami
    Jordan Cameron is unlikely to re-sign with the Browns, so the front office will have to find another tight end.



  13. New Orleans Saints: Andy Gallik, C, Boston College
    The Saints’ starting center, Jonathan Goodwin, turns 36 in December. He’ll be a free agent in March.

  14. Philadelphia Eagles: Anthony Harris, S, Virginia
    The Eagles will have to spend multiple picks on defensive backs, including one on a safety. The team needs help next to Malcolm Jenkins.

  15. Miami Dolphins: Jacoby Glenn, CB, Central Florida
    It wouldn’t be a surprise if the Dolphins doubled up on the cornerback position. As mentioned, their young players haven’t panned out yet.

    Pick change; previously Troy Hill, CB

  16. Cleveland Browns: Ty Montgomery, WR, Stanford
    Here’s more receiving help for the Browns. As mentioned, they may double up on the position in the wake of Josh Gordon’s suspension.



  17. Houston Texans: D’Joun Smith, CB, Florida Atlantic
    The Texans could use some depth at corner, as they were in trouble last year when some of their starters went down.

    Pick change; previously Wayne Lyons, CB

  18. San Diego Chargers: Tyler Lockett, WR, Kansas State
    The Chargers could use some help at receiver, as Malcom Floyd will be 34 next season, while Eddie Royal is an impending free agent.

    Pick change; previously John Miller, G

  19. Kansas City Chiefs: John Miller, G, Louisville
    Here’s another upgrade for Kansas City’s offensive line. Andy Reid won’t stand for a blocking unit that surrenders countless sacks.

    Pick change; previously Ramik Wilson, ILB

  20. Philadelphia Eagles: Josh Shaw, CB, USC
    The Eagles have a terrible group of cornerbacks, as both starters desperately need to be replaced. Two corners in the first four rounds makes sense.



  21. Cincinnati Bengals: Wayne Lyons, CB, Stanford
    The Bengals will be interested in some cornerback depth with Terence Newman on his way out.

    Pick change; previously Cam Thomas, CB

  22. Pittsburgh Steelers: Jeremy Langford, RB, Michigan State
    The Steelers have had success with a Michigan State running back, so why not draft another? Jeremy Langford is great in terms of pass protection, which is what Pittsburgh missed most when Le’Veon Bell went down.

  23. Detroit Lions: Xavier Cooper, DT, Washington State
    Another defensive tackle. The Lions will have to add a couple to offset the losses they’ll endure at the position this offseason.

    Pick change; previously Ray Drew, DT

  24. Arizona Cardinals: Za’Darius Smith, DE/OLB, Kentucky
    The Cardinals need a long-term pass-rusher across from Sam Acho; John Abraham will be a 37-year-old free agent next spring. I was surprised they didn’t draft an edge rusher this past May.



  25. Carolina Panthers: Ty Sambrailo, OT, Colorado State
    It shouldn’t surprise anyone if the Panthers double up on the tackle position. Both of their tackles were putrid last year.

  26. Baltimore Ravens: Stefon Diggs, WR, Maryland
    The Ravens will be looking for an offensive weapon with at least one of their first few draft picks. The receiver position needs help; Torrey Smith is an impending free agent, while Steve Smith, who turns 36 in May, won’t be around for very long.

    Pick change; previously Josh Robinson, RB

  27. San Francisco 49ers: Ben Koyack, TE, Notre Dame
    Vernon Davis has just one year left on his contract, so he won’t be around in San Francisco much longer. Vance McDonald, meanwhile, has been a disappointment. The 49ers may want to use a selection on a tight end.

  28. Dallas Cowboys: Josh Robinson, RB, Mississippi State
    DeMarco Murray will probably be too expensive to keep, so the plan was for Joseph Randle to become the new starting running back. The problem is that Randle was recently arrested for drug possession and domestic violence, so he could be suspended. If so, Dallas may spend a second-day (or fourth-round) selection on a back.

    Pick change; previously Kurtis Drummond, S

  29. Indianapolis Colts: Tony Washington, DE/OLB, Oregon
    The Colts were able to get a pass rush out of Jonathan Newsome, but the other edge rushers struggled for the most part.

  30. Green Bay Packers: Preston Smith, DE/OLB, Mississippi State
    Julius Peppers has been a natural fit for the Packers, but he’s just a short-term rental. Green Bay may want to add another pass-rusher for the future.

  31. Seattle Seahawks: Justin Cox, CB, Mississippi State
    Byron Maxwell is an impending free agent, while Tharold Simon was atrocious in the Super Bowl when he had to replace Jeremy Lane.

  32. New England Patriots: Doran Grant, CB, Ohio State
    Teams are never opposed to addressing cornerback depth, and the Patriots know they’re not going to have Darrelle Revis forever.
