Round 1
1. Arizona Cardinals: QB Kyler Murray, Oklahoma
Not buying the smoke, Murray is the pick
2. San Francisco 49ers: Edge Nick Bosa, Ohio State
From a need, talent and value (No. 2 player on our draft board), this makes too much sense.
3. New York Jets: Edge Josh Allen, Kentucky
The Jets tried to add edge talent all throughout free agency and finally get their guy.
4. Oakland Raiders: DI Quinnen Williams, Alabama
No ‘surprise' here. Quinnen is too damn talented for the Raiders to overthink.
5. Denver Broncos (From Buccaneers): QB Drew Lock, Missouri
The first trade of the draft! After scraping the bottom of the barrel in the QB market, Elway finally has a chance to get his guy.
6. New York Giants: QB Daniel Jones, Duke
The Cutcliffe-Manning connection is too much for the Giants to pass up.
7. Jacksonville Jaguars: OT Jonah Williams, Alabama
I'm selling any chance of Williams falling. His tape and work ethic is an OL coach's dream.
8. Detroit Lions: LB Devin White, LSU
They just went LB back in 2017, but it can still be addressed. White is too rare an athlete to pass up.
9. Buffalo Bills: DI Ed Oliver, Houston
The interior rush for the Bills is non-existent at the moment with Kyle Williams' retirement.
10. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (From Broncos): Edge Montez Sweat, Mississippi State
Sweat offers similar skillset to Jason Pierre-Paul and could learn from the veteran edge rusher.
11. Cincinnati Bengals: OT Andre Dillard, Washington State
Protecting Andy Dalton – or whoever is behind center – should be priority number one with how bad this line was last year.
12. Washington Redskins (From Packers): QB Dwayne Haskins, Ohio State
The Redskins jump the QB-needy Dolphins to get their guy to develop.
13. Miami Dolphins: OT Jawaan Taylor, Florida
They don't have to go QB, especially considering how bad his pass protection would be if the OL is left unaddressed.
14. Atlanta Falcons: Edge Rashan Gary, Michigan
The Falcons love athletes on the defensive side of the ball, and no edge in this class has more of it than Gary.
15. Green Bay Packers (From Redskins): TE TJ Hockenson, Iowa
Call it a ‘safe' pick if you want, but Hockenson offers a consistent middle of the field weapon the Packers have missed.
16. Houston Texans (From Panthers): OT/G Cody Ford, Oklahoma
The Texans get antsy knowing the Giants and Vikings could be in the tackle market.
17. New York Giants: WR DK Metcalf, Ole Miss
Big and fast is a combination Dave Gettleman is likely to fall in love with.
18. Minnesota Vikings: G Chris Lindstrom, Boston College
Lindstrom is the most solid pass-protecting guard in this class with plug-and-play ability.
19. Tennessee Titans: DI Christian Wilkins, Clemson
The Titans need a complementary piece to Jurrell Casey, and Wilkins' versatility would be put to good use in Tennessee.
20. Pittsburgh Steelers: CB Rock Ya-Sin, Temple
The Steelers have famously stuck to their guns when drafting secondary, and Ya-Sin would be no different.
21. Seattle Seahawks: Edge Brian Burns, Florida State
No Frank Clark means no semblance of an edge rush in Seattle currently.
22. Baltimore Ravens: LB Devin Bush, Michigan
Ravens get their replacement for CJ Mosley. Bush brings some attitude to a depleted front-7.
23. Carolina Panthers (From Texans): OT Dalton Risner, Kansas State
Risner has the flexibility to start at any position along the offensive line, which sets them up well in coming years.
24. Oakland Raiders: RB Josh Jacobs, Alabama
With Marshawn Lynch retiring, the need is obvious. Jacobs receiving skills will be coveted highly.
25. Green Bay Packers (From Eagles): CB Greedy Williams, LSU
The Packers go back to the well. Williams' fits the Packers scheme far better than Josh Jackson, who could be a candidate to move to safety.
26. Indianapolis Colts: DI Dexter Lawrence, Clemson
Nose is the biggest hole currently on the Colts' defensive line, and Lawrence offers legitimate three-down ability from the position.
27. Oakland Raiders: WR Marquise Brown, Oklahoma
Hollywood gets to be with his cousin in Vegas. Starting him off in the slot early in his career could be the best way to get immediate production from Brown.
28. Los Angeles Chargers: S Darnell Savage, Maryland
The Chargers get their single-high dynamo to pair with Derwin James' box prowess. That's a lot of speed on the back end.
29. Seattle Seahawks: TE Noah Fant, Iowa
Fant's speed down the field would be put to good use in the Seahawks' play-action game.
30. Philadelphia Eagles (From Packers): S Johnathan Abram, Mississippi State
Abram's run and hit ability is special for the position although he may be limited to a box role.
31. Los Angeles Rams: C Garrett Bradbury, NC State
The best scheme fit in the draft, Bradbury is an elite zone-blocking center.
32. New England Patriots: DI Jerry Tillery, Notre Dame
Length and versatility is a calling card for Patriots defensive linemen. Tillery offers both.
Round 2
33. Arizona Cardinals: WR N'Keal Harry, Arizona State
34. Indianapolis Colts: CB Julian Love, Notre Dame
35. Oakland Raiders: CB Byron Murphy, Washington
36. San Francisco 49ers: WR AJ Brown, Ole Miss
37. New York Giants: LB Mack Wilson, Alabama
38. Jacksonville Jaguars: S Nasir Adderley, Delaware
39. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: C Elgton Jenkins, Mississippi State
40. Buffalo Bills: OT Greg Little, Ole Miss
41. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (From Broncos): S Juan Thornhill, Virginia
42. Cincinnati Bengals: Edge Clelin Ferrell, Clemson
43. Detroit Lions: CB DeAndre Baker, Georgia
44. Green Bay Packers: Edge Chase Winovich, Michigan
45. Atlanta Falcons: OT Kaleb McGary, Washington
46. Washington Redskins: WR Deebo Samuel, South Carolina
47. Carolina Panthers: Edge LJ Collier, TCU
48. Miami Dolphins: WR Hakeem Butler, Iowa State
49. Cleveland Browns: DI Jeffery Simmons, Mississippi State
50. Minnesota Vikings: OG Connor McGovern, Penn State
51. Tennessee Titans: WR Emanuel Hall, Missouri
52. Pittsburgh Steelers: OT Yodny Cajuste, West Virginia
53. Philadelphia Eagles: RB Darnell Henderson, Memphis
54. Houston Texans: TE Irv Smith Jr., Alabama
55. Houston Texans: S Amani Hooker, Iowa
56. New England Patriots: WR Riley Ridley, Georgia
57. Philadelphia Eagles: C Erik McCoy, Texas A&M
58. Dallas Cowboys: S Chauncey Gardner-Johnson, Florida
59. Indianapolis Colts: Edge Charles Omenihu, Texas
60. Los Angeles Chargers: DI Khalen Saunders, Western Illinois
61. Kansas City Chiefs: S Deionte Thompson, Alabama
62. New Orleans Saints: WR Parris Campbell, Ohio State
63. Kansas City Chiefs: Edge Jachai Polite, Florida
64. New England Patriots: Edge Zach Allen, Boston College

69. Jacksonville Jaguars: WR Kelvin Harmon, NC State
70. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: CB Isaiah Johnson, Houston
71. Denver Broncos: RB Damien Harris, Alabama
