  1. Chicago Bears: Jayson Ademilola, DT, Notre Dame
    The Bears can’t use enough picks on their defensive front, which was weakened by recent departures.

  2. Philadelphia Eagles: Dorian Thompson-Robinson, QB, UCLA
    The Eagles will be looking for a developmental quarterback to compete with Marcus Mariota.

    Dorian Thompson-Robinson has plus accuracy and scrambling ability, but there are issues with his arm strength.

  3. Las Vegas Raiders: Trevor Reid, OT, Louisville
    The Raiders have tons of picks, so I’m sure one of their late-round choices will be used on blocking depth.



  4. Indianapolis Colts: Caleb Simpson, DT, Kansas
    The Colts need to pressure Trevor Lawrence in between the tackles if they want to beat him in the near future.

  5. San Francisco 49ers: Dante Stills, DT, West Virginia
    Given how much defensive line depth the 49ers lost in free agency, they’ll have to spend numerous picks to address this sudden need.



  6. Los Angeles Rams: Kobie Turner, DT, Wake Forest
    The defensive line is pretty barren for the Rams, aside from Aaron Donald.

  7. Atlanta Falcons: Cameron Young, NT, Mississippi State
    Here’s someone to help stop the Saints’ running game in what should be two highly contested games.



  8. Atlanta Falcons: Trey Dean, S, Florida
    It should surprise no one if the Falcons spend multiple picks on their secondary, given how bad it’s been in recent years.

  9. Jacksonville Jaguars: Anfernee Orji, LB, Vanderbilt Vanderbilt
    The Jaguars haven’t addressed their linebacking corps yet, so they’ll need to do that at some point.

    Anfernee Orji didn’t make many splash plays at Vanderbilt, but was a tough run defender.



  10. New Orleans Saints: Deslin Alexandre, DE, Pittsburgh
    Here’s some pass-rushing depth for a team that couldn’t get to the quarterback very well last year.

  11. Tennessee Titans: Tyler Beach, OT, Wisconsin
    The Titans will need to spend multiple picks on their broken offensive line.

  12. Cleveland Browns: Jake Witt, OT, Michigan Tech
    The Browns brought in numerous offensive linemen for top-30 visits, so they’re expected to address the area at some point.

  13. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Chris Murray, C, Oklahoma
    Another offensive lineman for the Buccaneers, who couldn’t block anyone last year.



  14. Las Vegas Raiders: Jalen Wayne, WR, South Alabama
    The Raiders aren’t very deep at receiver, so a late-round pick could be used on the position.

  15. Green Bay Packers: Evan Hull, RB, Northwestern
    The Packers met with several running backs ahead of the draft, so they could spend a late pick on one.

  16. Washington Redskins: Kyle Soelle, LB, Arizona State
    Linebacker picks are always welcome for the Redskins, who have struggled at the position for a long time.

  17. Pittsburgh Steelers: Tanner Ingle, S, N.C. State
    Here’s another safety for the Steelers, as Mike Tomlin is aiming to fix the secondary.

  18. Green Bay Packers: Jaquelin Roy, DT, LSU
    The Packers should be looking for players who can help stop the run.



  19. Indianapolis Colts: Mark Milton, CB, Baylor
    Cornerback is rather thin for the Colts, so multiple picks can be used on the position.

  20. Seattle Seahawks: Jake Andrews, C, Troy
    The Seahawks can add more competition to a troubled center position with this pick.

  21. Miami Dolphins: Xazavian Valladay, RB, Arizona State
    The Dolphins don’t have a dominant running game, so they could stand to add a rusher in the late rounds.

  22. Los Angeles Chargers: David Durden, WR, Western Carolina
    Given the injury issues the Chargers have at receiver, they could use another player at the position.

  23. New York Giants: Steven Jones, CB, Appalachian State
    The Giants really need cornerback help to stop the talented receivers in their division.

  24. Pittsburgh Steelers: Ali Gaye., DE, LSU
    The Steelers need as many edge rushers as possible if they want to beat Joe Burrow.

  25. Green Bay Packers: Ben Sims, TE, Baylor Baylor
    Given how many tight ends the Packers brought in for visits, it wouldn’t surprise me if they drafted a couple of them.

    Ben Sims was a solid receiver at Baylor. He should continue to develop as a blocker.

  26. New York Giants: Tre Tucker, WR, Cincinnati
    Three receivers is certainly possible, given how bad they are at the position.

  27. Dallas Cowboys: Durrell Johnson, DE, Liberty
    More pass-rushing competition for a team aiming to take down Jalen Hurts.

  28. Atlanta Falcons: Gemon Green, CB, Michigan
    Again, the Falcons have been hurting in the secondary, so more cornerback help makes sense.

  29. Cincinnati Bengals: T.J. Coleman, DE, Missouri
    The Bengals need as many edge rushers as possible to beat Patrick Mahomes.

  30. San Franciso 49ers: Israel Abanikanda, RB, Pittsburgh
    Kyle Shanahan is always down to burn a third-day pick on a running back.

  31. Philadelphia Eagles: Rakim Jarrett, WR, Maryland Maryland
    The Eagles are very top-heavy at receiver, as they have very little depth behind their two studs. Rakim Jarrett didn’t have big production this past year. He can play outside or in the slot.

    Pick change; previously Marvin Mims, WR

  32. Kansas City Chiefs: Desjuan Johnson, DE, Toledo
    Andy Reid loves bolstering the trenches, so I don’t see why he would devitate from that strategy.

  33. Kansas City Chiefs: Truman Jones, DE, Harvard
    Again, the pass rush is a huge deal for the Chiefs, so they need to add as much help as possible.

  34. Los Angeles Rams: Jaiden Woodbey, S, Boston College
    The Rams lost Taylor Rapp, so they’ll be looking for a safety at some point.

  35. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Dylan Horton, DE/OLB, TCU
    The Buccaneers have hosted plenty of edge rushers in the pre-draft process, so they’ll likely select multiple players who can get to the quarterback.

  36. San Franciso 49ers: Henry Byrd, OT, Princeton
    Tackle depth is needed in the wake of the Mike McGlinchey departure.

  37. New York Giants: Jerrod Clark, DT, Coastal Carolina
    The Giants have a strong defensive line, but depth is always welcome when it comes to generate pressure.

  38. San Franciso 49ers: Joel Wilson, TE, Central Michigan
    The 49ers are looking to add some juice to the tight end position this year. At least that’s what their pre-draft process has indicated.

  39. Green Bay Packers: Sean Clifford, QB, Penn State
    The Packers seemingly are looking for a developmental quarterback to add in the final rounds.

  40. New Orleans Saints: Ronnie Bell, WR, Michigan
    The Saints are hurting at receiver beyond the two young talents they have at the position.

  41. Chicago Bears: Ilm Manning, OT, Hawaii
    The Bears must make sure that Justin Fields is well protected.

  42. Houston Texans: Jose Ramirez, DE, Eastern Michigan
    Houston’s pass rush needs lots of work, so this pick shouldn’t surprise anyone.
