  1. Green Bay Packers: Jordan Whitehead, S, Pittsburgh
    Morgan Burnett signed with the Steelers, which is a big loss. The Packers will need to find a replacement.

  2. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Wyatt Teller, G, Virginia Tech
    As mentioned earlier, the Buccaneers really need to shore up their offensive line to give Jameis Winston the best chance possible to succeed.

  3. Houston Texans: Dalton Schultz, TE, Stanford
    The Texans have been searching for a consistent threat at tight end since Owen Daniels departed. Perhaps this is the solution.



  4. Indianapolis Colts: Jerome Baker, LB, Ohio State
    The Colts have one of the weakest linebacking corps in the NFL, so they need to bring someone in to help them defend better against tight ends and pass-catching backs.

  5. Chicago Bears: Josh Sweat, DE/OLB, Florida State
    The Bears lost some edge rushers this offseason, including Pernell McPhee. They’ll have to find replacements in the first half of the 2018 NFL Draft.



  6. Denver Broncos: Keke Coutee, WR, Texas Tech
    It appears as though the Broncos are going to keep Demaryius Thomas for one more season, but he doesn’t appear to have much time remaining in Denver.

  7. New York Jets: DaeSean Hamilton, WR, Penn State
    The Jets needed a receiver entering the offseason, but now they should find two in the wake of Robby Anderson’s legal troubles.



  8. New York Giants: Duke Dawson, CB, Florida
    The Giants got rid of Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, and it doesn’t sound like Eli Apple is too far behind him. Here’s some help for the secondary.

    Pick change; previously Kemoko Turay, DE/OLB

  9. Denver Broncos: Rashaan Gaulden, CB, Tennessee
    Aqib Talib was traded to the Rams, so Denver may want to use a mid-round pick on a cornerback.



  10. Oakland Raiders: Ogbonnia Okoronkwo, DE/OLB, Oklahoma
    The Raiders could stand to add an edge rusher in the middle rounds, as their pass rush isn’t great.

    Pick change; previously Marcell Frazier, DE

  11. Los Angeles Rams: Kemoko Turay, DE/OLB, Rutgers
    With Robert Quinn gone, I think the Rams could select as many as three edge rushers in the first five rounds of the 2018 NFL Draft.

    Pick change; previously Tyquan Lewis, DE



  12. Cincinnati Bengals: Chase Litton, QB, Marshall
    Marvin Lewis said he wanted to start from scratch. Does that mean finding a new quarterback early in the 2018 NFL Draft?

  13. Washington Redskins: Mark Walton, RB, Miami
    The Redskins could use a mid-round pick on a running back, as they don’t have any exciting options at the position.



  14. Cleveland Browns: Will Clapp, C/G, LSU
    The Browns could stand to add some offensive line depth, and Will Clapp can play multiple positions on the front.

  15. Chicago Bears: Danny Johnson, CB, Southern
    I have the Bears selecting a cornerback in the first round, but they could double up on the position because it’s such a problem area for them.




  16. Dallas Cowboys: Auden Tate, WR, Florida State
    The Cowboys signed Allen Hurns, but they could spend two picks on receivers if they decide to cut Dez Bryant.

  17. Detroit Lions: Frank Ragnow, C, Arkansas
    The Lions lost Travis Swanson to the Jets this offseason, so they’ll need to find a new center.

  18. Baltimore Ravens: Bo Scarbrough, RB, Alabama
    Alex Collins isn’t a bad running back, but he’s nothing special. The Ravens need a new lead back.

  19. Los Angeles Chargers: Mike White, QB, Western Kentucky
    The Chargers have to find a successor for Philip Rivers, who may not be around much longer.

  20. Seattle Seahawks: Kevin Toliver, CB, LSU
    It’s been pretty clear this season – even before the Richard Sherman injury – that the Seahawks need to find some help at cornerback.

  21. Buffalo Bills: Michael Gallup, WR, Colorado State
    Considering Zay Jones’ personal problems, I could see the Bills doubling up on receivers in the first few rounds of the 2018 NFL Draft.



  22. Kansas City Chiefs: Dorian O’Daniel, LB, Clemson
    The Chiefs lost Derrick Johnson this offseason, so they’ll need to find a new player at the position.

  23. Miami Dolphins: Shaquem Griffin, LB, Central Florida
    The Dolphins had major problems covering tight ends and pass-catching running backs last season, so they’re in desperate need of some linebacker help.



  24. Kansas City Chiefs: Holton Hill, CB, Texas
    The Chiefs acquired this selection in the Marcus Peters trade, so they might as well use it to find Peters’ replacement.

  25. Tennessee Titans: Kyzir White, S, West Virginia
    John Cyprien was a major disappointment last year. The Titans will give him another chance, but it wouldn’t hurt to bring in an insurance policy.

  26. Atlanta Falcons: Tyquan Lewis, DE, Ohio State
    The Falcons could lose Adrian Clayborn to free agency this spring. If so, they’ll be looking for a replacement in free agency or the first half of the 2018 NFL Draft.

    Pick change; previously Chad Thomas, DE

  27. New Orleans Saints: Oren Burks, LB, Vanderbilt
    The Saints signed Demario Davis this offseason, but they could stand to add another linebacker in the middle rounds.

  28. San Francisco 49ers: Scott Quessenberry, G/C, UCLA
    The 49ers signed Weston Richburg, but he doesn’t have the best injury history. Here’s an insurance policy.

  29. Jacksonville Jaguars: Anthony Averett, CB, Alabama
    The Jaguars lost Aaron Colvin to free agency, so they’ll have to find a new third cornerback to go along with Jalen Ramsey and A.J. Bouye.

  30. Philadelphia Eagles: Nyheim Hines, RB, N.C. State
    Cris Collinsworth pointed out that the one thing the Eagles are missing offensively is a Darren Sproles-type back, so Philadelphia could spend a mid-round selection on that sort of player if Sproles retires.

  31. Miami Dolphins: Trayvon Henderson, S, Hawaii
    Here’s more help for Miami’s secondary. T.J. McDonald’s future is in doubt because of his legal status.

  32. Philadelphia Eagles: Tyler Conklin, TE, Central Michigan
    Trey Burton signed a big contract with the Bears, so here’s a replacement.

    Pick change; previously Dallas Goedert, TE



  33. Green Bay Packers: Genard Avery, LB, Memphis
    Ted Thompson didn’t put the greatest focus into bolstering the linebacking corps. Perhaps the new general manager will take a different approach.

  34. Arizona Cardinals: J.C. Jackson, CB, Maryland
    The Cardinals have needed a viable cornerback across from Patrick Peterson for quite some time now. Here’s a possible solution.

  35. Los Angeles Rams: Azeem Victor, LB, Washington
    The Rams traded Alec Ogletree away because he didn’t fit the defense very well. They’ll have to find some help at linebacker as a result.

  36. Los Angeles Rams: Hercules Mata’afa, DE/OLB, Washington State
    As mentioned earlier, the Rams could stand to obtain lots of edge rushers, given their huge need.

    Pick change; previously Fred Warner, LB

  37. Dallas Cowboys: Marcell Frazier, DE, Missouri
    The Cowboys would like to enhance their pass rush, so this is a player they could obtain in the middle rounds.

    Pick change; previously Jayln Holmes, DE/DT
