Jaguars: Travon Walker, EDGE Georgia
There is suddenly a lot of buzz about Walker going number 1 overall. Taking a chance on any player from that Georgia defense isn’t a bad idea. This is nowhere near a certainty as a pick as drafts in the past.
Lions: Aidan Hutchinson, EDGE Michigan
The Lions could screw everyone up by taking a QB here (Malik Willis) but they won’t. I think instead they will prioritize defense in a good draft for it. The Michigan pass rusher winds up in Detroit after all.
Texans: Ahmad Gardner, CB Cincinnati
While not usually a position that is drafted this high, there are some exceptions like Jalen Ramsey and Denzel Ward over the years. I think Gardner is in that territory. Nick Caserio, a former New England guy, knows the value of top-notch CBs. I think he nabs one here.
Jets: Garrett Wilson, WR OSU
The Jets make the first move on the WR draft class. Garrett Wilson is a fun player and fits what they want to do.
Giants: Ikem Ekwonu, OT NC State
The Giants get a steal here with Ekwonu. They need help on the line.
Panthers: Kayvon Thibodeaux, EDGE Oregon
I don’t think the Panthers are taking a QB in this draft, at least not early. They would prefer a tackle but they can’t pass up on Thibodeaux here.
Steelers (trade with Giants): Malik Willis, QB Liberty
The Steelers long liked Willis and come away with him here. They move up ahead of other potential suitors to get him. Sometimes it’s as simple as following the tea leaves all along on this.
Falcons: Jameson Williams, WR Alabama
The Falcons probably won’t see Ridley ever again playing for them. They need a WR badly and address it here. They have had great success with Bama WRs so they go there again.
Seahawks: Evan Neal, OT Alabama
The Seahawks need offensive line help. Neal slides due to late medical concerns.
Jets: Jermaine Johnson, EDGE FSU
At the end of the day, the Jets land two huge prospects in positions of need.
Commanders: Kyle Hamilton, S Notre Dame
The Commanders get a gift here. Hamilton falls due to how the board fell but he’s a top 6 player in the draft. They easily take him.
Vikings: Jordan Davis, DT Georgia
Jordan Davis has been a big draft riser for months and now he’s in the top 12-15 pick conversation and should go in that range. Vikings seem a good fit.
Texans: Chris Olave, WR OSU
The Texans are in a good spot here. They can use this pick to pair Cooks with a good WR prospect. They have enough capital to pull it off.
Ravens: Derek Stingley Jr., CB LSU
The Ravens get the CB they need and Stingley has loads of potential.
Packers (trade with Eagles): Drake London, WR OSU
The Packers move up to nab the big WR from USC in London. Large shoes to fill for Adams though.
Saints: Charles Cross, OT Mississippi State
The Saints lost a big-time offensive lineman and immediately replace him in the draft.
Chargers: Devonte Wyatt, DT Georgia
The Chargers add some more defensive help up the middle, something they need.
Eagles: Devin Lloyd, LB Utah
Eagles need some help at LB and are in a perfect spot for one here.
Saints: Matt Corral, QB Ole Miss
The Saints find their QB now in Corral. He can sit behind Winston and develop or win the job right away.
Giants (trade with Steelers): Trent McDuffie, CB Washington
The Giants are likely to move on from James Bradberry in one way or another. They draft his replacement here.
Patriots: Zion Johnson, OG Boston College
Belichick loves his offensive lineman. He drafts one here.
Eagles (trade with Packers): Kaiir Elam, CB Florida
The Eagles grab the CB they will pair with Slay.
Cardinals: George Karlaftis, EDGE Purdue
The Cardinals immediately replace Chandler Jones here.
Cowboys: Trevor Penning, OT Northern Iowa
The Cowboys need to remake their offensive line. They start right here.
Bills: Logan Hall, DT Houston
Logan Hall is a sneaky 1st round possibility and the Bills need DT help. Crazy how the Bills not too long ago drafted another DT out of Houston. You might know of him. Yeah, Ed Oliver.
Titans: Desmond Ridder, QB Cincinnati
This would be the surprise of the first round, maybe the draft. I think the Titans are fine with Tannehill but will want more from the position. Tannehill becomes easier to move off after next season and he can start for them this season as Ridder develops. I’m a huge fan of Ridder so I love this pick for Tennessee.
Bucs: Kenyon Green, OG Texas A&M
The Bucs lost both their guards this offseason. They are good at building along the offensive line and prioritize it. This is a solid pick for them here to keep that philosophy alive.
Seahawks (trade with Packers): Sam Howell, QB UNC
The Seahawks move up to take what they hope is their future QB. I can see Carroll really liking Howell.
Chiefs: Daxton Hill, S Michigan
The Chiefs fill a need at safety here. Hill is a steal this late in the round.
Chiefs: Treylon Burks, WR Arkansas
Burks would be a monster in the Chiefs offense. He’s big and deceptively fast. Andy Reid would have fun with him.
Bengals: Tyler Linderbaum, OC Iowa
The Bengals have addressed the offensive line a ton this offseason and they do it once again here.
Falcons (trade with Lions): Kenny Pickett, QB Pitt
Pickett at 32 sounds shocking at first but I think his stock has dropped. He’s a prospect where overanalyzing hurts him badly. His hype after the season was high but I think it’s lessened a lot now. Falcons move up to get him here and take a chance on him.
