I know it has been cruel to withold this from you all for so long but your wait is over. There will likely be some trades but i didn't bother predicting any. It's just too hard.
1 Cleveland - Myles Garrett
I can't see not drafting him but you can make the case. They drafted Ogbah and Nassib last year and they seem to like them. If they really do have Trubisky graded as a frinchise guy then they should grab him because SF might take him at 2. If you love him then take him, don't mess around.
2 San Fran - Mitch Trubisky
everyone is saying Soloman Thomas but they've used high picks on the 2 DL from Oregon the last few years. QB is by far the biggest need and Trubisky seems a fit with Shanahan.
3 Chicago - Jonathan Allen DT Alabama
most have Jamal Adams here but S is pretty deep and they can get a good one in RD 2, but won't be able to get a a DL like Allen later
4 Jacksonville - Leonard Fournette Rb LSU
they have invested heavily in defense. I can see them going with a Adams or Hooker here to possibly cap off that defense, but they need offense. When you look at the Jags roster, they actually have lots of talent now so they really can take a RB this high
5 Tennessee - Jamal Adams S LSU
If Trubisky is available, this is a prime spot for a trade up to get him. If Tenn stays here, i think they get Lebeau that safety he needs.
6 NY Jets - Marshon Lattimore CB Ohio State
If trubisky is here, he could be the pick. I can also see them going with OJ Howard here.
7 LA Chargers - Soloman Thomas DE/DT Stanford
they need a S badly so Adams or Hooker could be the pick here, but if Thomas slides, i think they grab him to paid with Bosa and grab the S later
8 Carolina - OJ Howard TE Alabama
WHat? They have Greg Olsen already. Yes, but they need an offensive weapon and Howard could free up Olsen to be more of a WR and maybe extend his career by having him block less.
Fournette would be the pick is he's available but with him gone, I don;t think McCaffrey is their type of player. Howard can help the run and pass game.
9 Cincinnati - Reuben Foster LB ALabama
this guy is exactly what they need and some off field concerns seals the deal that he's a Bengal
10 Buffalo - Mike Williams WR Clemson
They have a huge need at WR. Williams is a great pairing with Sammy Watkins
11 New Orleans - Derek Barnett - DE Tennessee
They can pick just about anything on defense and not go wrong.
12 Cleveland - Malik Hooker S Ohio State
with Trubisky off the board, they go best player available
13 Arizona - Marlon Humphrey CB Alabama
Could they go QB? I doubt this high. They need a CB
14 Philadelphia - Christian McCaffrey RB stanford
Eagles need a playmaker. McCaffrey can be a RB and a slot WR
15 Indianapolis - Garett Bolles - OT Utah
Luck is taking a beating. Draft is thin on OL so better grab the best one here.
16 Baltimore - Cam Robinson OT Alabama
Ravens want to get back to the strong run game and Robinson could give them their bookend Rt to go with their top pick from last year
17 Washington - Dalvin Cook RB Florida State
This offense needs a good Rb. "Fat Rob" Kelly is just a backup.
18 Tennessee - Corey Davis WR Western Michigan
Have to get Mariotta some weapons
19 Tampa Bay - Adoree Jackson CB USC
I can see them going with Njoku here but Cameron Brate was pretty good last year and TE is deep. Jackson fits their mold
20 Denver - Ryan Ramczyk OT Wisconsin
Their OL has fallen way off. Need to fix it quick
21 Detriot - Haason Reddick LB Temple
They need a playmaker on defense and Reddick can do it all. They have shown lots of interest in Reddick.
22 Miami - Jarrad Davis LB Florida
They could go with a pass rusher here because Wake is old but they can't stop the run at all so they need a LB. They signed Timmons but still need another LB. They have shown more interest in Davis than Cunningham from Vandy
23 NY Giants - David Njoku TE Miami
they haven't had a good TE since Shockey. Njoku could really be dangeroud paired with Beckham
24 Oakland - Zach Cunningham LB Vanderbilt
Raiders have a few needs but this could be their last shot at an off ball LB that can start immediately
25 Houston - Pat Mahomes QB Texas Tech
Hard to see Houston not taking a QB here. They have visited with all of them. Mahomes has the most upside and with O'Brien seeing himself as a QB coach, i think they swing for the fence. Mahomes's dad was a MLB player so he grew up around pro athletes and he knows how to work.
26 Seattle - Obi Melifonwu S Conn
This guy is exactly what Seattle looks for in DBs
27 Kansas City - Deshaun Watson - Qb Clemson
Chiefs have met with nearly all the QBs in this draft so they must be serious about taking one. Watson doesn't have a great arm but he's mobile and a good fit for a west coast system.
28 Dallas - Tak McKinley LB UCLA
Their defense is terrible. They drafted Jaylon Smith last year which shows they are not afraid to take a guy with injury risk
29 Green Bay - Fabian Moreau CB UCLA
They could go with Watt here which seems like such an easy pick but i think they need CB more. They could also take RB Alvin Kamara here since they need RB badly.
30 Pittsburgh - TJ Watt LB Wisconsin
The steelers really could go any direction here if they have high grades on other OLBs that will be available later. This pick could be Budda Baker or Peppers if the rumors are true. I can also see TE Njoku or Evan Engram here as well.
31 Atlanta - Charles Harris DE MIssouri
Their offense is good. Defense needs work. They lost in the SB because they got tired. They need a rotation at DE and Harris fits their mold.
32 New Orleans - Taco Charlton DE Michigan
This could be CB or a trade for Malcolm Butler. Charlton is a guy they have visited and would be great value here. Paired with Barrett from earlier in RD 1, they could transform that pass rush in 1 draft.
