NFL MOCK DRAFT – 03/07/2017 | |
ROUND 1 | |
1. CLEVELAND BROWNS | |
(1-15) | Myles Garrett, DE, Texas A&M: They will take him with the idea they can solve their quarterback issues elsewhere. It?s probably the right thing to do. |
2. SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS | |
(2-14) | Mitch Trubisky, QB, North Carolina: They have to try and solve the position at some point. This is that time — if they don?t make a deal for Kirk Cousins. |
3. CHICAGO BEARS | |
(3-13) | Jonathan Allen, DT, Alabama: He is in the mix to be the best player in this draft. The Bears need defensive line help. |
4. JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS | |
(3-13) | Marshon Lattimore, CB, Ohio State: If they can pair him with Jalen Ramsey, they could have a nice 1-2 combination to build upon for the next decade. |
5. TENNESSEE TITANS (FROM LOS ANGELES RAMS) | |
(9-7) | Malik Hooker, FS, Ohio State: He would give them a ball-hawking player on the back end of their defense. They could also go corner here. |
6. NEW YORK JETS | |
(5-11) | Patrick Mahomes II, QB, Texas Tech: They have to solve their quarterback position at some point. This is a player scouts are raving about lately. |
7. LOS ANGELES CHARGERS | |
(5-11) | Jamal Adams, SS, LSU: He is more of a box safety than Hooker, but he isn?t a liability in coverage. The Chargers need help on the back end. |
8. CAROLINA PANTHERS | |
(6-10) | Leonard Fournette, RB, LSU: This is too high to take a back in my book, but they are a run-heavy offense that needs an upgrade from Jonathan Stewart. It?s time to get younger. |
9. CINCINNATI BENGALS | |
(6-9-1) | Reuben Foster, ILB, Alabama: He is a player who could step in and start right way, bringing some needed speed to the linebacker group. |
10. BUFFALO BILLS | |
(7-9) | Deshaun Watson, QB, Clemson: The Bills have a big void at quarterback if Tyrod Taylor doesn?t come back. They have to address it. |
11. NEW ORLEANS SAINTS | |
(7-9) | Solomon Thomas, DE, Stanford: They have to get edge help to go with Cameron Jordan. Thomas isn?t explosive edge rusher, but he can push the pocket. |
12. CLEVELAND BROWNS (FROM PHILADELPHIA) | |
(1-15) | Teez Tabor, CB, Florida: They have to get better outside in their secondary, and Tabor has the tools to step in and start right away. |
13. ARIZONA CARDINALS | |
(7-8-1) | Corey Davis, WR, Western Michigan: They have to get help outside in their passing game. Larry Fitzgerald is coming to the end of his career. |
14. PHILADELPHIA EAGLES (FROM MINNESOTA) | |
(7-9) | Sidney Jones, CB, Washington: They have to get a corner to help their coverage units. Jones is a nice player who can lock down in man coverage. |
15. INDIANAPOLIS COLTS | |
(8-8) | *Derek Barnett, DE, Tennessee: Their pass rush is woeful. They have to use a lot of picks to help fix it, starting with this one. |
16. BALTIMORE RAVENS | |
(8-8) | Mike Williams, WR, Clemson: They have to get more weapons for Joe Flacco. With Steve Smith retiring, it makes sense. |
17. WASHINGTON REDSKINS | |
(8-7-1) | *Budda Baker, FS, Washington: The back end of their defense needs upgrading. This is a kid scouts are raving about. |
18. TENNESSEE TITANS | |
(9-7) | Quincy Wilson, CB, Florida: They addressed safety earlier in this draft, so now why not take a corner? |
19. TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS | |
(9-7) | Obi Melifonwu, SS, Connecticut: He is a physical freak and the Bucs need help at safety in the worst way. He can play in space, which this team needs. |
20. DENVER BRONCOS | |
(9-7) | Ryan Ramczyk, OT, Wisconsin: They let Russell Okung leave, and they had issues at both tackles last season anyway. This kid could also help inside at guard if needed. |
21. DETROIT LIONS | |
(9-7) | Dalvin Cook, RB, Florida State: They need to get better running the football. Cook has home-run speed and can be an effective threat in the passing game. |
22. MIAMI DOLPHINS | |
(10-6) | Taco Charlton, DE, Michigan: Andre Branch is a free agent and Cam Wake isn?t a kid anymore. They need to get help outside rushing the passer. |
23. NEW YORK GIANTS | |
(11-5) | Haason Reddick, OLB, Temple: He is a player who would help upgrade the weak part of their defense. He has played with his hand on the ground, but projects to a linebacker spot in the NFL. |
24. OAKLAND RAIDERS | |
(12-4) | Marlon Humphrey, CB, Alabama: They have to get better play at corner from what they got last year. Humphrey can step in and help right away. The Raiders could also consider linebacker here. |
25. HOUSTON TEXANS | |
(9-7) | Garett Bolles, OT, Utah: They had issues at right tackle last season and left tackle Duane Brown is getting up in the years. They need to address the position. |
26. SEATTLE SEAHAWKS | |
(10-5-1) | Forrest Lamp, OG, Western Kentucky: Their line was a major problem last season. It?s time to get a player who can play guard or tackle to try and help fix it. |
27. KANSAS CITY CHIEFS | |
(12-4) | *Zach Cunningham, OLB, Vanderbilt: They have major issues inside with Derrick Johnson coming off a torn Achilles tendon and lack of talent at the other spot. |
28. DALLAS COWBOYS | |
(13-3) | Charles Harris, DE, Missouri: They need to get pass-rush help. Harris could provide that for a team that was bad rushing the passer last season. |
29. GREEN BAY PACKERS | |
(10-6) | T.J. Watt, OLB, Wisconsin: They have to get better outside rushing the passer, especially if they lose Nick Perry. Watt is a player who can do that. |
30. PITTSBURGH STEELERS | |
(11-5) | Gareon Conley, CB, Ohio State: They need to get more help outside in their secondary. He could join Artie Burns to give them a nice young tandem. |
31. ATLANTA FALCONS | |
(11-5) | Carl Lawson, DE, Auburn: The pass rush needs help to go with Vic Beasley. That showed up in the Super Bowl loss. |
32. NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS | |
(14-2) | Takkarist McKinley, OLB, UCLA: The edge rush is the weak point of the New England defense. McKinley can stand up and also put his hand on the ground. |
