  1. Jacksonville Jaguars: Tariq Woolen, CB, Texas-San Antonio
    The Jaguars got some great play out of Shaq Griffin, but they need help elsewhere in their secondary.

    Tariq Woolen would be a higher pick if he didn’t have medical and off-the-field concerns.

  2. Cleveland Browns: Jaxson Kirkland, OT, Washington
    Jack Conklin suffered a serious injury and may not be able to play very much in 2022. Here’s some insurance for that situation.

    Jaxson Kirkland moved to left tackle in 2020 and didn’t surrender a single sack.

  3. Houston Texans: Smoke Monday, S, Auburn
    The Texans will likely have to replace their top safety, Justin Reid, who is an impending free agent.

    Smoke Monday has great tackling ability.

  4. Seattle Seahawks: Michael Clemons, DE, Texas A&M
    I doubt the Seahawks will be done upgrading their pathetic pass rush after just one pick.

    Michael Clemons is a bit raw, but defnitely has high potential.



  5. Baltimore Ravens: Coby Bryant, CB, Cincinnati
    The Ravens need to bolster their depth at cornerback, given their woes from last year.

    Coby Bryant made some clutch shots, I mean interceptions during the 2020 season. He has some speed concerns.

  6. New York Jets: Jaquan Brisker, S, Penn State
    The Jets may lose Marcus Maye in the near future. If so, they’ll have to find a replacement.

    Jaquan Brisker is an instinctive safety with good speed.

  7. New York Giants: Zach Tom, OT/C, Wake Forest
    The Giants have well-documented problems with their offensive line, so multiple new blockers are needed.

    Zach Tom is a tough lineman who played tackle and center at Wake Forest.

  8. Washington Redskins: Leon Chenal, LB, Wisconsin
    The Redskins must improve the middle of their defense, as linebacker was a big issue last year.

    Leo Chenal is a hard-hitting, two-down run defender. Coverage could be a problem in the NFL.



  9. Atlanta Falcons: Rachaad White, RB, Arizona State
    The Falcons don’t have much of a running game, and Cordarrelle Patterson isn’t going to last much longer.

    Rachaad White is an impressive recever out of the backfield.

  10. Denver Broncos: Bubba Bolden, S, Miami
    The Broncos will be looking to find a replacement for Kareem Jackson in the near future.

  11. Seattle Seahawks: John Ridgeway, DT, Alabama
    Here’s even more help for Seattle’s poor defensive line.

    John Ridgeway has a nice combination of size and speed.



  12. New York Jets: Jamaree Salyer, OT/G, Georgia
    Here’s more offensive line help for the Jets, who need to make sure Zach Wilson is as well protected as possible.

    Jamaree Salyer played left tackle at Georgia, but his lacking length could force him into playing guard in the NFL.

  13. Cleveland Browns: Ali Gaye, DE, LSU
    The Browns had a very poor pass rush outside of Myles Garrett, so multiple new edge rushers are needed.

    Ali Gaye has huge upside, but didn’t quite live up to it at LSU.



  14. Baltimore Ravens: MoMo Sanogo, LB, Ole Miss
    The Ravens struggled to defend the middle of the field last year, so that must change.

  15. New Orleans Saints: Desmond Ridder, QB, Cincinnati
    The Saints will be interested in adding a young quarterback at some point.

    Desmond Ridder impressed this year. He has shown an improved ability to work through progression, and he’s good at using his feet to extend plays.






  16. Miami Dolphins: John Metchie, WR, Alabama
    Charlie Campbell reported on the Senior Bowl page that the Dolphins are shopping DeVante Parker, so they may want to add another Alabama receiver.

    John Metchie has a tendency to make big plays for Alabama’s offense, but a torn ACL could hurt his draft stock.

  17. Indianapolis Colts: Myjai Sanders, DE, Cincinnati
    The Colts had a weak pass rush last year, and that must improve under a new coordinator.

    Myjai Sanders saw a decline in sacks last year, but was better than his numbers indicated.

  18. Los Angeles Chargers: Travis Jones, NT, Connecticut
    The Chargers should add multiple players who could help against the run.



  19. Philadelphia Eagles: Baylon Spector, LB, Clemson
    The Eagles have a very weak linebacking corps that they’ll have to address this offseason.




  20. Miami Dolphins: DeVonte Wyatt, DT, Georgia
    The Dolphins could stand to add to the defensive interior to ensure that they can stop the run well.

    DeVonte Wyatt has some quickness despite his 315-pound frame.

  21. Las Vegas Raiders: Chris Rodriguez, RB, Kentucky
    The regime that drafted Josh Jacobs is gone, so the Raiders may want to find a new running back.

    Chris Rodriguez is a quick runner who is tough enough to get good yardage after contact.

  22. New England Patriots: Zion Nelson, OT, Miami
    Trent Brown has issues staying healthy, so here’s another tackle.

    Zion Nelson performed well right away for Miami, earning a starting left tackle job as a freshman. He has great upside.

  23. Baltimore Ravens: Kingsley Engabare, DE, South Carolina
    The Ravens need to add more talented pass rushers so they don’t have to blitz as often.

    Kingsley Engabare has solid speed and athleticism.

  24. Dallas Cowboys: Bryan Cook, S, Cincinnati
    The Cowboys could stand to add a bit more talented to their secondary.



  25. Buffalo Bills: Josh Paschal, DE, Kentucky
    The Bills always love adding talent to their defensive line, so they’ll do that at some point.

    Josh Paschal is stout as a run defender, and he can also get some pressure on the quarterback.

  26. Tennessee Titans: Dai’Jean Dixon, WR, Nicholls State
    The Titans need depth at receiver with Julio Jones on the decline.

    Dai’Jean Dixon has nice size (6-2) and quickness.



  27. Green Bay Packers: Jeremy Ruckert, TE, Ohio State
    The Packers need another offensive weapon, this time at tight end as an upgrade over Robert Tonyan.

  28. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Dontario Drummond, WR, Ole Miss
    Antonio Brown is gone, while Chris Godwin is an impending free agent. The Buccaneers will need a new receiver.

  29. San Francisco 49ers: Nolan Smith, DE, Georgia
    Dee Ford hasn’t been able to stay healthy, so the 49ers may want to add another edge rusher.

    Nolan Smith was the top recruit in his class. He’s a tremendous athlete and looks to be a dynamic edge threat at the next level. He hasn’t lived up to his upside, however.

  30. Kansas City Chiefs: Haskell Garrett, DT, Ohio State
    The Chiefs need another force in the interior defensive lineman.

    Haskell Garrett has plus quickness, but lacks length.

  31. Cincinnati Bengals: Marquis Hayes, G, Oklahoma
    It would be surprising if the Bengals didn’t obtain numerous offensive linemen.

  32. Houston Texans: Grant Morgan, LB, Arkansas
    The Texans lost some talent at linebacker recently, so they’ll need to address this area.

    Grant Morgan is a mediocre athlete but has great instincts.
