Round 1
Bengals:
Mike Green, DE, Marshall 
This has to be a defensive pick, as most of the Bengals' picks should be.
Seahawks:
Nick Emmanwori, S, South Carolina 
They need to upgrade their OLine, but Nick Emmanwori feels like he could be Mike McDonald's Seahawks version of Kyle Hamilton.
Buccaneers:
Will Johnson, CB, Michigan 
The Bucs offence is in good shape and they stop Will Johnson's slide.
Broncos:
Emeka Egbuka, WR, Ohio State 
They need playmakers, and Egbuka is the cleanest one left. Omarion Hampton was tempting but the Broncos can get a good one at #51.
Steelers:
Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado 
I don't like the fit, but it sounds like a possibility and with no pick again until 83 this feels like a pick ripe for a trade.
Packers:
Maxwell Hairston, CB, Kentucky 
They're good across the board, but with the Jaire Alexander rumours this feels like a GB pick.
Vikings:
Grey Zabel, OT, North Dakota State 
Hazarding a guess that the Vikings, with just four picks, trade back (with the Chiefs?) and this feels like about the right spot for Zabel.
Texans:
Tyler Booker, G, Alabama 
The trade of Tunsil to my Commanders suggests they're looking for a leader in the OLine room. Enter the Alabama man.
Rams:
Mason Taylor, TE, LSU 
Don't ask me why, other than I've been listening to Daniel Jeremiah too much.
Lions:
Shemar Stewart, DE, Texas A&M 
The lack of sacks doesn't deter the Lions from taking a huge talent at an area of need.
Commanders:
Jihaad Campbell, LB, Alabama
Adam Peters will be keen to move back in the draft to recoup our lost picks but will he be able to find a trade partner? Realistically, the only hopes of a trade back are if a team want the fifth year option on a premium position, and I'm not convinced a trade partner will be there, so whilst I was tempted to put Dart or Milroe here I won't. Given the way the board has fallen, I add the Alabama stud on the basis it's realistic his injury could cause him to fall and if someone sees him as an Edge there's the chance of a trade.
Bills:
Donovan Ezeiruaka, OLB, Boston College 
Another option for Washington, but a good fit for the Bills.
Chiefs:
Josh Simmons, OT, Ohio State
The Chiefs might not be picking here, so trying to put someone here who would meet both their needs and who they might have traded with, so let's go with tackle.
