  1. Cleveland Browns: Tre’Quan Smith, WR, Central Florida
    Given that the Browns don’t really have a reliable receiver on the roster outside of Jarvis Landry, they could spend multiple draft picks on wideouts.

  2. Los Angeles Rams: Shaun Dion Hamilton, LB, Alabama
    The Rams just traded Alec Ogletree, so they’ll need some linebacker depth.

  3. Houston Texans: Roc Thomas, RB, Jacksonville State
    The Texans could be moving on from Lamar Miller this offseason, so obtaining a running back late in the draft makes sense.



  4. Indianapolis Colts: Christian Campbell, CB, Penn State
    The Colts have one of the weakest groups of corners in the NFL, so they need all the help they can get.

    Pick change; previously Allen Lazard, WR



  5. New York Jets: Troy Fumagalli, TE, Wisconsin
    The Jets lost Austin Seferian-Jenkins to the Jaguars, so they’ll be looking for a new tight end.

    Pick change; previously Tarvarus McFadden, CB

  6. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Akrum Wadley, RB, Iowa
    It could be possible that the Buccaneers will want to completely revamp their running back stable, which would mean spending two picks on running backs.

    Pick change; previously Jamarco Jones, OT

  7. Chicago Bears: Daurice Fountain, WR, Northern Iowa
    It wouldn’t hurt the Bears to spend a couple of resources on receivers, just in case Kevin White and Cameron Meredith don’t recover from injuries.

    Pick change; previously Daniel Jones, QB



  8. Denver Broncos: Derrick Nnadi, NT, Florida State
    Between injuries and legal issues, the Broncos have some problems on their defensive line.

    Pick change; previously Wyatt Teller, G

  9. Los Angeles Rams: Will Richardson, OT, N.C. State
    Andrew Whitworth won’t be around for long, so the Rams will need to groom someone to replace him.



  10. San Francisco 49ers: Taylor Hearn, G, Clemson
    The 49ers have two stellar tackles, but they need multiple upgrades in the interior of the offensive line.

  11. New England Patriots: Joseph Noteboom, OT, TCU
    The Patriots are going to lose multiple tackles in free agency, so a couple of new additions make sense.



  12. Green Bay Packers: Brandon Facyson, CB, Virginia Tech
    The Packers obviously are in desperate need for cornerback help and should use multiple selections on the position.

  13. Buffalo Bills: Ian Thomas, TE, Indiana
    It wouldn’t hurt for the Bills to add a tight end to the roster, as Charles Clay isn’t very reliable.



  14. Washington Redskins: Folorunso Fatukasi, DT, Connecticut
    The Redskins could take a second defensive lineman just to make sure their run defense improves.

    Pick change; previously Quenton Meeks, CB

  15. New Orleans Saints: Kendrick Norton, DT, Miami
    The Saints cut ties with Nick Fairley because of his unfortunate heart condition, so they could be looking for some mid-round depth for the defensive interior.

    Pick change; previously Josey Jewell, LB




  16. Baltimore Ravens: Dylan Cantrell, WR, Texas Tech
    Given Joe Flacco’s lack of weaponry, it should surprise no one if the Ravens add multiple receivers.

  17. Los Angeles Chargers: Quenton Meeks, CB, Stanford
    Teams won’t ever hesitate to add cornerback depth late in the draft, and the Chargers haven’t done that yet.

    Pick change; previously Joseph Noteboom, OT

  18. Oakland Raiders: Dimitri Flowers, FB, Oklahoma
    Jon Gruden discussed the importance of a fullback in his offense, so look for the Raiders to spend a third-day pick on one.

  19. Dallas Cowboys: Davontae Harris, CB, Illinois State
    The Cowboys won’t have Orlando Scandrick back next year, so they’ll have to find a new cornerback.

  20. Los Angeles Rams: Timon Parris, G/OT, Stony Brook
    The Rams could stand to get better play out of their right guard, so here’s a potential upgrade down the road.

    Pick change; previously Levi Wallace, CB

  21. Los Angeles Rams: Ralph Webb, RB, Vanderbilt
    The Rams want to add some running back depth on Day 3 so that Todd Gurley doesn’t have to carry an absurd load each year.

    Pick change; previously Tray Matthews, S



  22. Los Angeles Rams: Daniel Jones, QB, Duke
    The Rams may want to think about finding a new quarterback so that they eventually have a competent No. 2 behind Jared Goff.

    Pick change; previously Will Richardson, OT

  23. Carolina Panthers: Michael Joseph, CB, Dubuque
    The Panthers need as much cornerback help as possible for their ailing secondary.



  24. Miami Dolphins: Darren Carrington, WR, Utah
    Jarvis Landry is gone, while DeVante Parker is a major question mark. The Dolphins need receiving help.

  25. Tennessee Titans: Cody O’Connell, G, Washington State
    The Titans will have some free agent guards next offseason, so here’s a potential replacement down the road.

    Pick change; previously Timon Parris, G/OT

  26. Atlanta Falcons: Adam Breneman, TE, UMass
    The Falcons cut Levine Toilolo, so they’ll likely spend a third-day pick on tight end depth.

  27. New Orleans Saints: Jamarcus King, CB, South Carolina
    Teams are always looking for cornerback and edge-rushing depth. The Saints have yet to address the former position in this mock.

  28. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Levi Wallace, CB, Alabama
    The Buccaneers could spend multiple picks on cornerbacks, as Brent Grimes won’t be around much longer.

    Pick change; previously Ade Aruna, DE

  29. Jacksonville Jaguars: Jaleel Scott, WR, New Mexico State
    Both Allen Robinson and Allen Hurns are gone, so the Jaguars will need to bolster their receiving depth.

    Pick change; previously Ralph Webb, RB

  30. Minnesota Vikings: Dominick Sanders, S, Georgia
    The Vikings have two talented safeties, but lack much depth behind them. That needs to change.

  31. New England Patriots: Trevon Young, DE, Louisville
    The Patriots put no pressure on Nick Foles. That must change if the Eagles and Patriots were to meet again in Super Bowl LIII.

  32. Philadelphia Eagles: Jeff Holland, DE/OLB, Auburn
    Michael Bennett was a great acquisition, but the Eagles could stand to find a young edge rusher with Vinny Curry gone.

    Pick change; previously Jack Cichy, LB



  33. Green Bay Packers: Darius Phillips, CB, Western Michigan
    Several Day 3 cornerbacks wouldn’t surprise me at all, as the Packers really need to fix their secondary.

    Pick change; previously Frank Ginda, LB

  34. Dallas Cowboys: Cedrick Wilson, WR, Boise State
    The Cowboys will have to double up on receivers if Dez Bryant leaves.

  35. Kansas City Chiefs: Jester Weah, WR, Pittsburgh
    The Chiefs want to add as much receiving talent as possible to take advantage of Patrick Mahomes’ arm.

  36. Oakland Raiders: Matthew Thomas, LB, Florida State
    Oakland’s linebacking corps is in shambles, so the team will have to add two players to the position.

  37. Houston Texans: James Hearns, DE/OLB, Louisville
    The Texans could stand to add depth behind Jadeveon Clowney and Whitney Mercilus.

    Pick change; previously Darius Phillips, CB

  38. Oakland Raiders: Javon Wims, WR, Georgia
    Jordy Nelson was signed to replace Michael Crabtree, but he’s obviously just a short-term fix (if that).

  39. Minnesota Vikings: Jack Cichy, LB, Wisconsin
    The Vikings are looking for linebacker depth, and they like Jack Cichy.

    Pick change; previously Cody O’Connell, G

  40. Houston Texans: Jamil Demby, G, Maine
    Houston will need to make sure Deshaun Watson is protected as well as possible, and the offensive line isn’t looking so hot right now.

  41. Baltimore Ravens: Chris Herndon, TE, Miami
    Maxx Williams hasn’t panned out, so the Ravens will be looking for a new tight end.

  42. Oakland Raiders: Ade Aruna, DE, Tulane
    It wouldn’t hurt to grab a second edge rusher on Day 3, as Oakland needs to get as much pressure as possible on Philip Rivers and Patrick Mahomes.

    Pick change; previously James Hearns, DE/OLB

  43. Oakland Raiders: Grant Haley, CB, Penn State
    Here’s even more secondary help for the Raiders, who really need to attack this area during the offseason.

  44. Minnesota Vikings: Riley Ferguson, QB, Memphis
    Even with the signing of Kirk Cousins, it wouldn’t hurt for the Vikings to add a young quarterback to groom as a future No. 2.
