  1. 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.

  2. Los Angeles Rams: Akrum Wadley, RB, Iowa
    The Rams want to use a mid-round pick on a running back so that Todd Gurley’s workload isn’t as heavy.

  3. Houston Texans: Keke Coutee, WR, Texas Tech
    The Texans may add some depth to their receiving corps, as they need some help beyond DeAndre Hopkins and Will Fuller.



  4. Indianapolis Colts: Rashaan Gaulden, CB, Tennessee
    The Colts need three cornerbacks, and it would be a huge mistake if they left the draft without taking two.



  5. New York Jets: Trey Johnson, CB, Villanova
    The Jets spent multiple early picks last year on safeties. They could do the same thing with their corners this April.

  6. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Matthew Thomas, LB, Florida State
    Kwon Alexander is set to hit free agency next spring, so here’s an insurance policy in case he leaves.

  7. Chicago Bears: Korey Robertson, WR, Southern Miss
    It wouldn’t hurt the Bears to spend a couple of resources on receivers, just in case Kevin White doesn’t recover from injuries.



  8. Arizona Cardinals: Derrick Nnadi, NT, Florida State
    The Cardinals lost Xavier Williams to the Chiefs, so they could stand to add a new nose tackle.

  9. Los Angeles Rams: Greg Senat, OT, Wagner
    Andrew Whitworth won’t be around much longer, so the Rams need to find his successor.



  10. San Francisco 49ers: Darius Phillips, CB, Western Michigan
    The 49ers signed Richard Sherman this offseason, but they still need to add another cornerback.

  11. Oakland Raiders: Dimitri Flowers, FB, Oklahoma
    Jon Gruden discussed the importance of a fullback in his offense, so look for the Raiders to spend a third-day pick on one.



  12. Green Bay Packers: Brett Toth, OT, Army
    The Packers could use a tackle of the future, so it would make sense to obtain Brett Toth, who wouldn’t be able to play until his service obligations are complete.

    Pick change; previously Davontae Harris, CB

  13. Buffalo Bills: Dalton Schultz, TE, Stanford
    The Bills could stand to add another offensive weapon for their new quarterback beyond D.J. Chark.



  14. Cleveland Browns: Shaun Dion Hamilton, LB, Alabama
    The Browns have some talent in their linebacking corps, but the players there mostly disappointed in 2017.

  15. New Orleans Saints: Christian Campbell, CB, Penn State
    Patrick Robinson should turn out to be a nice signing, but he’s in his 30s, so he’s just a short-term solution.




  16. Baltimore Ravens: Tyler Conklin, TE, Central Michigan
    The Ravens signed Ben Watson, but they obviously need to find a long-term solution at tight end.

    Pick change; previously John Kelly, RB

  17. Los Angeles Chargers: Leon Jacobs, OLB, Wisconsin
    The Chargers could bolster their linebacking corps much earlier than this, but this pick makes sense if they wait.

    Pick change; previously Chase Edmonds, RB

  18. Dallas Cowboys: Phillip Lindsay, RB, Colorado
    The Cowboys could lose Alfred Morris to free agency this offseason. If so, here’s a replacement.

  19. Dallas Cowboys: Taron Johnson, CB, Weber State
    The Cowboys added a couple of cornerbacks in the draft last year, but they could still stand to add one more for depth in the wake of Orlando Scandrick’s release.

  20. Los Angeles Rams: Dejon Allen, G, Hawaii
    The Rams could stand to get better play out of their right guard, so here’s a potential upgrade down the road.

  21. Los Angeles Rams: Joe Ostman, DE, Central Michigan
    Here’s yet another edge rusher for a team that is so desperate for them.



  22. Kansas City Chiefs: Alex McGough, QB, Florida International
    The Rams may want to think about finding another young quarterback so that they eventually can have a competent No. 2 behind Patrick Mahomes.

  23. Carolina Panthers: Justin Jackson, RB, Northwestern
    The Panthers lost Jonathan Stewart this offseason, so they’ll need someone new to pair with Christian McCaffrey.



  24. New England Patriots: Logan Woodside, QB, Toledo
    It’s not impossible that the Patriots will use an early and a late pick on quarterbacks, as they desperately need to find Tom Brady’s successor.

  25. Tennessee Titans: Jullian Taylor, DT, Temple
    The Titans are looking to add some talent to their defensive line at some point, and they could do so earlier than this.

  26. Atlanta Falcons: Taylor Hearn, G, Clemson
    The Falcons’ lone hole on the offensive line is at right guard, which could be addressed much earlier than this.

  27. New Orleans Saints: Korey Cunningham, OT, Cincinnati
    Zach Strief retired, so given Terron Armstead’s injury history, the Saints should be looking at a third-day tackle.

  28. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: James Looney, DT, California
    The Buccaneers added some veterans to their defensive line this offseason, but they could still be interested in acquiring some youth there.

  29. Jacksonville Jaguars: Ralph Webb, RB, Vanderbilt
    Chris Ivory is gone, so the Jaguars may want to add another running back for depth.

  30. Minnesota Vikings: Jack Cichy, LB, Wisconsin
    The Vikings are looking for linebacker depth, and they like Jack Cichy.

  31. Washington Redskins: Nic Shimonek, QB, Texas Tech
    Alex Smith will be Washington’s starting quarterback for the next couple of seasons, but the Redskins need to find a young signal-caller to groom as an eventual replacement.

  32. Philadelphia Eagles: Jermaine Carter, LB, Maryland
    Given Jordan Hicks’ injury history, the Eagles need to add some depth at linebacker.



  33. Green Bay Packers: Allen Lazard, WR, Iowa State
    Here’s another receiver, as the Packers need to get younger at the position.

  34. Dallas Cowboys: Tyquan Lewis, DE, Ohio State
    This is late for Tyquan Lewis, but the Cowboys will take it, as they’ll want to add some depth to their edge rush.

  35. Miami Dolphins: Kendrick Norton, DT, Miami
    The Dolphins will have to attempt to replace Ndamukong Suh at some point during the draft.

  36. New England Patriots: Braxton Berrios, WR, Miami
    Braxton Berrios is the exact type of receiver Bill Belichick loves having in his offense.

  37. Houston Texans: Tanner Lee, QB, Nebraska
    The Texans would like to groom a young quarterback behind Deshaun Watson so that all hope isn’t lost again if Watson goes down.

  38. Oakland Raiders: Jaleel Scott, WR, New Mexico State
    The Raiders needed a receiver before the whole Michael Crabtree-Jordy Nelson “exchange,” so adding a second wideout in the draft makes sense.

  39. Minnesota Vikings: Davontae Harris, CB, Illinois State
    Here’s even more secondary depth for the Vikings, who were torched by Nick Foles in the NFC Championship.

  40. Houston Texans: Timon Parris, G/OT, Stony Brook
    The Texans need as many quality blockers as possible to protect Deshaun Watson.

  41. Baltimore Ravens: Dylan Cantrell, WR, Texas Tech
    Given Joe Flacco’s lack of weaponry, it should surprise no one if the Ravens add multiple receivers.

  42. Oakland Raiders: M.J. Stewart, CB, North Carolina
    The Raiders could take a couple of cornerbacks late in the draft if they don’t address the position early.

  43. Oakland Raiders: Grant Haley, CB, Penn State
    Here’s even more secondary help for the Raiders, who really need to attack this area during the offseason.

  44. Minnesota Vikings: Quentin Poling, LB, Ohio
    The Vikings will likely use a late-round pick for their linebacker depth issues.
