Carolina Panthers: Cole Strange, G, UT-Chattanooga

The Panthers will need to spend multiple picks on offensive linemen, or their quarterback won't have a chance.

Seattle Seahawks: Logan Bruss, G/OT, Wisconsin

The Seahawks will be looking to acquire multiple offensive linemen to improve their mediocre blocking.

Logan Bruss played tackle at Wisconsin, but will likely have to move to guard in the NFL.
New York Jets: Thomas Booker, DE/DT, Stanford

The Jets could stand to add a defensive lineman in the middle rounds.
New York Giants: Romeo Doubs, WR, Nevada

Receiver shouldn't be a need, but Kenny Golladay was a huge disappointment last year, while Kadarius Toney has been the subject of trade rumors.

Romeo Doubs had a nice Senior Bowl week to put him in the mid-round radar.
Chicago Bears: Damarri Mathis, CB, Pittsburgh

The Bears had big problems at cornerback last year that must be addressed.
Carolina Panthers: Marcus Jones, CB, Houston

The Panthers lost Stephon Gilmore to free agency, so they may want to spend a mid-round pick on cornerback depth.
Chicago Bears: Tyquan Thornton, WR, Baylor

The Bears have a huge weakness at receiver, so they'll have to double up on the position.
Atlanta Falcons: Carson Wells, DE/OLB, Colorado

The Falcons figure to add multiple edge rushers this offseason because they can't get any pressure on the quarterback.
Denver Broncos: Rachaad White, RB, Arizona State

Melvin Gordon may leave in free agency. If he does, the Broncos will want a new running back to complement Javonte Williams.

Rachaad White is an impressive recever out of the backfield.
Seattle Seahawks: Percy Butler, S, Louisiana-Lafayette

Jamal Adams has been a huge disappointment thus far.
Philadelphia Eagles: Brock Purdy, QB, Iowa State

The Eagles could take a chance on a quarterback in the middle rounds just in case Jalen Hurts regresses.
Dallas Cowboys: Justyn Ross, WR, Clemson

The Cowboys lost Amari Cooper and Cedrick Wilson this offseason, so here's a replacement.

Justyn Ross is a 6-4, 210-pound monster who catches everything. Alabama had no answer for him in the national championship. Unfortunately, he missed all of 2020 with an injury.
Minnesota Vikings: Bailey Zappe, QB, Western Kentucky

Kellen Mond was a disappointment last year, so the Vikings may want to find a new young quarterback.
Jacksonville Jaguars: Kerby Joseph, S, Illinois

The Jaguars have yet to address their secondary, which must occur at some point.
New England Patriots: Jeremiah Moon, LB/DE, Florida

Another versatile player for Bill Belichick. This time, Belichick grabs a defender who can play at linebacker or on the edge.

Jeremiah Moon compiled some impressive testing numbers at the combine, showing off his excellent athleticism.
Indianapolis Colts: Justin Shaffer, G, Georgia

In addition to left tackle, the Colts have a big need at guard that must be addressed.
Los Angeles Chargers: JoJo Doman, LB, Nebraska

The Chargers could use some better depth at linebacker if Kyzir White leaves via free agency.
New Orleans Saints: Keontay Ingram, RB, USC

The Saints are looking for a viable, long-term backup behind Alvin Kamara.

Keontay Ingram has some nice receiving ability.
Philadelphia Eagles: Jesse Luketa, LB, Penn State

More linebacker help for the Eagles, who really need to bolster the position.
New York Jets: Brad Hawkins, S, Michigan

The Jets should add some depth to their secondary, as they'll need to beat Josh Allen to win the AFC East.
Las Vegas Raiders: Danny Gray, WR, SMU

The Raiders traded for Davante Adams, but they could still add another receiver to the mix.
Las Vegas Raiders: Thayer Munford, G/OT, Ohio State

Yet another offensive line upgrade for a team that can't block very well.
Philadelphia Eagles: Matthew Butler, DT, Tennessee

The Eagles will be looking for a defensive tackle in the future as a potential successor for Fletcher Cox.
Dallas Cowboys: James Houston, LB, Jackson State

The Cowboys are expected to obtain a linebacker at some point, given that they are thin at the position.
Buffalo Bills: Yusuf Corker, S, Kentucky

The Bills have some aging safeties, so they may want some young blood at the position.
Tennessee Titans: Charleston Rambo, WR, Miami

The Titans could go receiver as early as No. 26, given Julio Jones' departure and Robert Woods' injury.

Charleston Rambo has a slender frame, but he's 6-1 with quality speed.
Houston Texans: Verone McKinley III, S, Oregon

Here's some more secondary help for a team that desperately needs it.
Green Bay Packers: Velus Jones, WR, Tennessee

A third receiver? No one should be surprised by this. The Packers really need help at wideout.
San Francisco 49ers: Chase Lucas, CB, Arizona State

The 49ers seem likely to double up at cornerback, given their woes there last year.
New York Giants: Jeffrey Gunter, DE, Coastal Carolina

Here's another edge player for the Giants, who really need to improve their ability to get to the quarterback.
Cincinnati Bengals: Alec Lindstrom, C, Boston College

The Bengals may want to find someone to compete with Ted Karras at center.
Los Angeles Rams: Austin Deculus, OT, LSU

The Rams have Joseph Noteboom to replace the retired Andrew Whitworth, but they'll need to find depth.
Dallas Cowboys: Jake Ferguson, TE, Wisconsin

It might be too expensive for the Cowboys to keep Dalton Schultz in 2023 and beyond. I could see them adding another tight end.
Detroit Lions: Matt Waletzko, OT, North Dakota

Taylor Decker has been the subject of some trade rumors, so the Lions may draft a tackle.
Dallas Cowboys: Eyioma Uwazurike, DT, Iowa State

The Cowboys will want to add more talent to their defensive line in the middle rounds.
Indianapolis Colts: Jermaine Waller, CB, Virginia Tech

The Colts have a weakness at cornerback that could be addressed much earlier than this.

Jermaine Waller has been a ballhawking cornerback in 2021, notching three interceptions in the early stages of the season.
