#1 Arizona Cardinals-Nick Bosa, DE, Ohio State
I had Rosen as the first QB off my board last season. Not passing on him after one season. Bosa is a game changer at DE something the Cardinals for sure need. Need to hit OL hard rest of the draft.
#2 San Francisco 49ers-Josh Allen, DE, Kentucky
If you add Josh Allen and Dee Ford in an offseason you have a hell of a defensive line heading into the 2019 season. Other team needs might not be worth the value at two. A trade would make sense here.
#3 New York Jets-Jawaan Taylor, OT, Florida
A trade here would make a lot of sense since the Jets don’t have a second round pick. Staying and picking up Jawaan Taylor to protect Darnold would be a smart play though.
#4 Oakland Raiders-Ed Oliver, DL, Houston
Oakland couldn’t get to the QB at all last season. Oliver will change that.
#5 Tampa Bay Buccaneers-Devin White, LB, LSU
White is going to be a special player in the NFL. Tampa is going to be strong at LB for a long time.
#6 New York Giants-Montez Sweat, DE, Miss. State
No need to grab a QB this year. Wait until next year for that. Bolster the D-line with Sweat.
#7 Jacksonville Jaguars-Andre Dillard, OT, Washington State
If you want Foles to be successful and quick you must protect him. Then find a TE.
#8 Detroit Lions-Greedy Williams, CB, LSU
The Lions were 2nd to last in takeaways last season. Greedy Williams can help in that department.
#9 Buffalo Bills-Quinnen Williams, DL, Alabama
This would be a huge pick up if Williams fell this far. One way or another the Bills should end up with a promising player on the line.
#10 Denver Broncos-Drew Lock, QB, Missouri
This is my toughest pick yet. So many directions that you could go. I went with Lock with the idea in mind that he likely sits most of this season. Lock might not have the highest ceiling in this draft but he seems to be the safest bet.
#11 Cincinnati Bengals-Devin Bush, LB, Michigan
The Bengals LB corp is in desperate need of a playmaker. Bush will be that guy.
#12 Green Bay Packers-Cody Ford, G, Oklahoma
I was between D.K. Metcalf and Ford. Went Ford to sure up the line.
#13 Miami Dolphins-Kyler Murray, QB, Oklahoma
Murray has a lot of upside. If the Dolphins are willing to work to his skill set I can see this being successful.
#14 Atlanta Falcons-Clelin Ferrell, DE, Clemson
Ferrell paired with fellow Clemson Tiger Vic Beasley would a hell of a duo.
#15 Washington Redskins-D.K. Metcalf, WR, Ole Miss
Washington’s biggest need is a playmaker at WR. Metcalf can fill that role.
#16 Carolina Panthers-Jonah Williams, G, Alabama
When Cam is healthy this team is at a different level. Finding help on the line has to be addressed.

#16 Carolina Panthers-Jonah Williams, G, Alabama
When Cam is healthy this team is at a different level. Finding help on the line has to be addressed.
#17 New York Giants from Cleveland-Byron Murphy, CB, Washington
Murphy has a chance to get plenty of reps in year one with the Giants being so thin at corner.
#18 Minnesota Vikings-Chris Lindstrom, OG, Boston College
Vikings have to address offensive or defensive line with this pick. I leaned offensive as a bigger need.
#19 Tennessee Titans-Rashan Gary, DL, Michigan
Titans need to bolster their line. Gary will fit in well with the Titans. If Metcalf falls. They have to grab him here.
#20 Pittsburgh Steelers-Marquise Brown, WR, Oklahoma
Smith-Schuster will move into the WR1 slot with Brown gone. Add Brown opposite of Juju and I see no worries for the Pittsburgh passing attack.
#21 Seattle Seahawks-Christian Wilkins, DL, Clemson
Adding a guy like Wilkins will give this line a major boost.
#22 Baltimore Ravens-N’Keal Harry, WR, Arizona State
If the Ravens don’t draft a WR here, they are dumb. They are weak at the position plus you have an inexperienced QB. Harry is the guy they need here.
#23 Houston Texans-Kaleb Mcgary, OL, Washington
They have to protect Watson! They have to draft O-line. Take best available lineman and move on.
#24 Oakland Raiders from Chicago Bears-T.J. Hockenson, TE, Iowa
Hockenson would give Oakland a weapon they are missing at TE.
#25 Philadelphia Eagles-Dalton Risner, OT, Kansas State
Unfortunately for the Eagles there’s not a lot of first round talent at LB. Drafting a OT here would be a wise move for depth and maintaining a strong O-line going forward.
#26 Indianapolis Colts-AJ Brown,WR, Ole Miss
Outside of TY Hilton the Colts haven’t done too much to help Luck out. With the overall roster in good shape this is the year to get him some help.
#27 Oakland Raiders from Dallas Cowboys-Dexter Lawrence, DT, Clemson
Drafting Lawrence and Oliver in the first round would transform this defense. It also make you somewhat forget how awful those trades looked last season.
#28 Los Angeles Chargers-De’andre Baker, CB, Georgia
Chargers are weak at corner. Baker is the best corner available on my board.
#29 Kansas City Chiefs-Jaylon Ferguson, DE, Louisiana Tech
Ferguson could very well end up being the steal of the draft. He put up monster numbers in college. Just in case you are wondering he put up numbers vs. P5 schools too.
#30 Green Bay Packers from New Orleans Saints-Taylor Rapp, S, Washington
My first safety off the board. Green Bay needs a safety in a bad way. Rapp should be a solid starter for years to come.
#31 Los Angeles Rams-Mack Wilson, LB, Alabama
The Rams are loaded at most spots. This pick will have to be on the defensive side no matter what. ILB seemed like the biggest opportunity. I took a shot on Wilson, who could be a starter right away.
#32 New England Patriots-Noah Fant, TE, Iowa
Replacing Gronk won’t be easy but Fant will be able to do a lot of things they like.
Murphy has a chance to get plenty of reps in year one with the Giants being so thin at corner.
