  1. Los Angeles Chargers Los Angeles Chargers: Kamari Lassiter, CB, Georgia Georgia
    The Chargers need the best cornerback play possible, given that they have to battle Patrick Mahomes twice per year.

    Kamari Lassiter has the upside to be a cover cornerback in the NFL.

    Pick change; previously Kool-Aid McKinstry, CB



  2. Denver Broncos Denver Broncos: Donovan Jackson, G, Ohio State Ohio State
    Russell Wilson struggled last year because of Nathaniel Hackett. The shoddy pass protection didn’t help matters.

    Donovan Jackson is a tough blocker with upside.

  3. Atlanta Falcons Atlanta Falcons: Bralon Trice, DE, Washington Washington
    The Falcons have possessed the NFL’s worst pressure rate in each of the past two years, so that has to change at some point.

    Bralon Trice has been a great pass rusher for Washington. He has big upside.



  4. Seattle Seahawks NFL Draft 2024 Seattle Seahawks: Jack Sawyer, DE, Ohio State Ohio State
    The Seahawks have a poor pass rush. It was shocking that they didn’t address it this past offseason.

    Jack Sawyer has flashed some big-time pass-rushing ability.

    Pick change; previously Jack Nelson, OT/G

  5. Minnesota Vikings Minnesota Vikings: Kool-Aid McKinstry, CB, Alabama Alabama
    I’m not breaking any news here by telling you that Minnesota’s secondary is a mess. The team will have to address cornerback soon. Back-to-back first-round picks on cornerbacks is possible.

    Kool-Aid McKinstry was a rare freshman starter for Nick Saban. He has the size and athleticism to be an elite cornerback.

    Pick change; previously Terrion Arnold, CB



  6. Jacksonville Jaguars Jacksonville Jaguars: T’Vondre Sweat, NT, Texas Texas
    The Jaguars have needed defensive tackle help ever since Calais Campbell left the team.

    T’Vondre Sweat is a massive player and a great athlete for a player his size. He has drawn comparisons to Jordan Davis.

  7. Pittsburgh Steelers Pittsburgh Steelers: Chico Bennett Jr., DE, Virginia Virginia
    The Steelers were 8-2 with T.J. Watt on the field last year, but 1-6 without him. They need another pass rusher to make sure that doesn’t happen again.

    Chico Bennett Jr. has great upside, though he needs to get stronger for the NFL.



  8. Miami Dolphins Miami Dolphins: Javion Cohen, G, Miami Miami
    Tua Tagovailoa can’t stay healthy. The Dolphins need to improve their offensive line.

    Javion Cohen showed great ability as a pass protector and run blocker.

  9. Dallas Cowboys Dallas Cowboys: Johnny Wilson, WR, Florida State Florida State
    The Cowboys have been searching for a No. 2 receiver to play across from CeeDee Lamb for several years. Perhaps this is finally the solution.

    Johnny Wilson is a massive receiver who might have to become a tight end in the NFL.

    Pick change; previously Jack Sawyer, DE



  10. San Francisco 49ers San Francisco 49ers: Terrion Arnold, CB, Alabama Alabama
    The 49ers’ great pass rush has masked the poor cornerback situation for quite some time. Perhaps the front office will finally address that issue.

    Terrion Arnold is a quick and athletic cornerback with average height.

    Pick change; previously Beaux Collins, WR

  11. New York Jets New York Jets: Ja’Tavion Sanders, TE, Texas Texas
    The Jets could stand to add another play-maker for whomever they find to play quarterback this offseason.

    Ja’Tavion Sanders has mismatch athleticism and speed.



  12. Kansas City Chiefs Kansas City Chiefs: Leonard Taylor, DT, Miami Miami
    The Chiefs could stand to get better against the run, and they can stand to improve their pass rush so they don’t blitz as much.

    Leonard Taylor took a step back during the ’22 season, but he has upside to be a solid starter in the NFL.

  13. Detroit Lions Detroit Lions: Max Melton, CB, Rutgers Rutgers
    The Lions wanted Devon Witherspoon at No. 6, so perhaps they’ll obtain a cornerback with this pick.

    Max Melton is a terrific athlete who is incredibly fast that receivers can’t outrun him.

  14. Buffalo Bills Buffalo Bills: Emeka Egbuka, WR, Ohio State Ohio State
    The Bills drafted a second tight end, but they still need a better second wide receiver.

    Emeka Egbuka was a big-time producer with C.J. Stroud during the ’22 season.

  15. Philadelphia Eagles Philadelphia Eagles: Malachi Moore, CB/S, Alabama Alabama
    The Eagles could use some young defensive backs who can eventually replace the two aging cornerbacks or one of the safeties.



  16. Cincinnati Bengals Cincinnati Bengals: Zion Nelson, OT, Miami Miami
    The Bengals may be looking for a new right tackle if Jonah Williams goes through with his trade demands.

    Zion Nelson was inconsistent this past season, but he has the potential to break out eventually.
