Round 1
- New
York Jets (from LV): Fernando Mendoza, QB, Indiana
New York secures their guy to reset the franchise. They have extra first rounders in 2026/27 to spend, so why not spend ‘em if you got ‘em. - Las
Vegas Raiders (from NYJ): Arvell Reese, EDGE/LB, Ohio State Maxx gone? Either
way, Reese’s hybrid rush backer profile fits an instant playmaker need.
- Los
Angeles Rams (from ARI): Francis Mauigoa, OT, Miami (FL)
Rams take a shot and jump up for a franchise tackle to both protect the present and prepare for the post Stafford era. - Tennessee
Titans: Carnell Tate, WR, Ohio State
Titans’ WR need is glaring, Tate is best WR in class. - New
York Giants: Spencer Fano, OT, Utah
Dart is a walking concussion and if they want him to stay in pocket, he needs to be protected. - Cleveland
Browns: Rueben Bain Jr., EDGE, Miami (FL)
A menace in the middle. Short arms or not, guy wrecks offensive lines. - Washington
Commanders: Mansoor Delane, CB, LSU
Cannot rely on Mikey Sainristill making plays because he rarely does. - Dallas
Cowboys (from NO): Olaivavega Ioane, G, Penn State
Dallas jumps up to get in on the OL run to lands a road grader. - Kansas
City Chiefs: Jeremiyah Love, RB, Notre Dame
Passing game will not be good till PM15 comes back, so need a bell cow to shoulder the load. - Buffalo
Bills (from CIN): Jordyn Tyson, WR, Arizona State
Top Bills need is WR. Couldn’t get up to get Tate, but Tyson is a nice consolation prize. Tyson fits better than Lemon. - Miami
Dolphins: Jermod McCoy, CB, Tennessee
They need a lot of help so could go anywhere really. Depending on Tua situation, might be a spot for Simpson. - New
Orleans Saints (from DAL): Makai Lemon, WR, USC
Need to replace Shaheed, Lemon and Olave are nice toys for Slough to grow with - Arizona
Cardinals (from LAR via ATL): Caleb Lomu, OT, Utah
Stack picks and still get a day 1 starter on a really bad O Line. - Baltimore
Ravens: David Bailey, EDGE, Texas Tech
Pass rush was weak last year, Bailey will help elevate that closer to the kind of pass rush we expect out of a Raven’s D. - Tampa
Bay Buccaneers: Avieon Terrell, CB, Clemson
Back side of D is a hole and aging quickly, Terrell is silky and has quick hips that will do well in the Tampa heat. - New
York Jets (via IND): Denzel Boston, WR, Washington
Why not give Mendoza two elite WRs on the outside to play with? - Detroit
Lions: Brandon Cisse, CB, South Carolina
Cisse’s length and quick closing skills will pair nicely against the WRs of the NFC North - Minnesota
Vikings: Colton Hood, CB, Tennessee
DB is a top Vikings need; Hood’s fluidity and ball skills mesh with Flores’ pressure looks. - Carolina
Panthers: Keldric Faulk, EDGE, Auburn
Carolina needs to be able to pressure QB’s and hold teams to 10 points a game in order to repeat as NFC South winners. - Dallas
Cowboys (via GB): Sonny Styles, LB, Ohio State
Styles slides a bit, but Jerra cannot pass him up. - Pittsburgh
Steelers: Ty Simpson, QB, Alabama
What’s A-Aron doing? No one knows, but even if he comes back, he is basically petrified wood, so Simpson makes sense. - Cleveland
Browns (from LAC): Kayden McDonald, DT, Ohio State
Browns jump the line for a stout run defender to fix interior line leakage. - Philadelphia
Eagles: T.J. Parker, EDGE, Clemson
Parker adds needed juice to the rush to complement their young DBs. - Los
Angeles Chargers (from CLE via JAX): Emmanuel Pregnon, G, Oregon
Interior OL was a headline need; Pregnon’s size/movement stabilizes the middle. - Chicago
Bears: Caleb Banks, DT, Florida
Bears’ DL/run defense issues make an ascending traits DT and a logical pick. - Cincinnati
Bengals (from BUF): Peter Woods, DT, Clemson
After sliding, Cincy still gets a top interior penetrator to boost third down rush. - San
Francisco 49ers: Akheem Mesidor, EDGE/DL, Miami (FL)
Is Bosa ever healthy? Is anyone ever healthy on the 9ers? Need to move away from that power station ASAP. - Houston
Texans: Kenyon Sadiq, TE, Oregon
Sadiq is carved out of marble but does not have stone hands. Will be a nice release point for Stroud. - Los
Angeles Rams: Chris Johnson, CB, San Diego State
CB is on the Rams’ shortlist; Johnson’s length/speed help in a deep WR division. - Denver
Broncos: C.J. Allen, LB, Georgia
Allen’s instincts and range will add another layer of complexity that Vance can use. - New
England Patriots: Monroe Freeling, OT, Georgia
Will they move Will Campbell to Guard? Right Tackle? - Seattle
Seahawks: Anthony Hill Jr., LB, Texas
I just like AH Jr., and his skills and talent will pair well with Seahawks fly around style defense.
