  1. Cincinnati Bengals: Lavert Hill, CB, Michigan
    The Bengals have added just one player to their secondary thus far, which is a low number considering how their pass defense performed last year.

  2. Washington Redskins: Trey Adams, OT, Washington
    Trey Adams would be a first-round pick if he didn’t have health issues. He’s worth a gamble in Round 5, and the Redskins need to address their offensive line.



  3. Detroit Lions: Stanford Samuels, CB, Florida State
    The Lions could address their secondary as early as No. 3 overall with Jeff Okudah. If they trade down or land Chase Young, they’ll have to find another cornerback later in the draft.



  4. New York Giants: Shyheim Carter, CB, Alabama
    The Giants need to bolster their cornerback group. They should add multiple players at the position.





  5. Los Angeles Chargers: Jared Hilbers, OT, Washington
    The Chargers need multiple offensive linemen to protect their new quarterback.



  6. Carolina Panthers: Calvin Throckmorton, G/C/OT, Oregon
    The Panthers need to bolster their offensive line so they can protect the injury-prone Cam Newton as well as possible.





  7. Arizona Cardinals: Youhanna Ghaifan, DE/DT, Wyoming
    The Cardinals could stand to add a talented defensive lineman to help improve their weak pass rush.



  8. Miami Dolphins: Chauncey Rivers, DE, Mississippi State
    The Dolphins don’t have any sort of pass rush, so they’ll need to spend a second- or third-day pick on a defensive end.





  9. Pittsburgh Steelers: Dalton Keene, TE, Virginia Tech
    Vance McDonald has been a big disappointment thus far, so the Steelers could aim to upgrade him this offseason.



  10. Buffalo Bills: Matt Peart, OT, Connecticut
    The Bills could stand to add some talent to their mediocre offensive line.





  11. San Francisco 49ers: Quintez Cephus, WR, Wisconsin
    Emmanuel Sanders is an impending free agent, so the 49ers will need to find a new receiver if they don’t re-sign him.



  12. Atlanta Falcons: Kalija Lipscomb, WR, Vanderbilt
    The Falcons traded away Mohamed Sanu, so they’ll likely target a receiver at some point.

    Kalija Lipscomb has drawn some rave reviews from NFL team sources.








  13. New York Jets: Binjimen Victor, WR, Ohio State
    The Jets could double up on receivers, given the lack of talent at the position.



  14. Las Vegas Raiders: K.J. Costello, QB, Stanford
    The Raiders could use an early- or mid-round pick on a quarterback to groom behind Derek Carr.





  15. Indianapolis Colts: Daelin Hayes, DE, Notre Dame
    The Colts are likely to add multiple defensive linemen in this draft, as they need to improve their pass rush.

    Daelin Hayes has drawn rave reviews for his speed and athleticism while rushing on the edge. He has loads of potential.



  16. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Nate Stanley, QB, Iowa
    If the Buccaneers sign Philip Rivers, they’ll need to find a young receiver to groom behind the long-time Charger.






  17. Miami Dolphins: J.J. Taylor, RB, Arizona
    Given the lack of talent at running back, I could see the Dolphins drafting two players at the position.

    J.J. Taylor could be used like Tarik Cohen in the NFL.



  18. Chicago Bears: Hakeem Adeniji, G, Kansas
    Kyle Long has retired, so the Bears will need to focus on finding a new guard.

    Hakeem Adeniji may have to move to guard. He projects best in a zone-blocking scheme.



  19. Dallas Cowboys: Matt Hennessy, C, Temple
    It wouldn’t hurt the Cowboys if they found an insurance policy for Travis Frederick.



  20. Jacksonville Jaguars: Marquez Callaway, WR, Tennessee
    The Jaguars could stand to find a better receiver to play across from D.J. Chark.





  21. Philadelphia Eagles: Reggie Robinson, CB, Tulsa
    The Eagles doubled up on receivers. They could also double up on cornerbacks, given the dire need.

    Reggie Robinson is a tall, athletic cornerback. He has loads of potential.



  22. Buffalo Bills: David Woodward, LB, Utah State
    The Bills could select a linebacker on Day 3 in the wake of Lorenzo Alexander’s retirement.





  23. Philadelphia Eagles: Jabari Zuniga, DE, Florida
    The Eagles have yet to bolster their defensive line, which is something they’re always expected to do.

    Jabari Zuniga isn’t strong enough for the NFL quite yet, but he has some potential.



  24. New Orleans Saints: Matt Bushman, TE, BYU
    Jared Cook doesn’t have much time remaining in the NFL, so the Saints will want to find a young tight end.



  25. Baltimore Ravens: D.J. Wonnum, DE/OLB, South Carolina
    The Ravens could double up on edge rushers if Matthew Judon departs via free agency.

    D.J. Wonnum has impressive speed and athleticism on the edge.



  26. Houston Texans: Brandon Bowen, OT/G, Ohio State
    The Texans must find as many upgrades as possible to their dreadful offensive line.



  27. Detroit Lions: Ke’Shawn Vaughn, RB, Vanderbilt
    The Lions can’t really trust Kerryon Johnson, so perhaps they’ll use a mid-round pick on a running back.

    Ke’Shawn Vaughn has great strength to run through defenders.



  28. Los Angeles Rams: Joe Gaziano, DE/DT, Northwestern
    The Rams could add multiple defensive linemen if they lose Michael Brockers, which is expected.

    Joe Gaziano has been a productive, tough member of Northwestern’s defensive line. He projects as a 3-4 defensive end.



  29. Tennessee Titans: A.J. Dillon, RB, Boston College
    I could see the Titans adding a running back on Day 3, just in case Derrick Henry gets fat and happy.

    A.J. Dillon is a power back who will probably be chosen in the fourth or fifth round.



  30. Green Bay Packers: Isaiah Hodgins, WR, Oregon State
    The Packers had such a weak receiving corps in 2019 that they almost have to spend multiple picks on receivers.





  31. San Francisco 49ers: Darrynton Evans, RB, Appalachian State
    The 49ers will likely lose Matt Breida this offseason, so they may add a running back on the third day of the draft.



  32. Kansas City Chiefs: Jeff Thomas, WR, Miami
    The Chiefs could lose a couple of receivers to free agency this spring, so they may take a replacement on Day 3.
