Alabama

The Browns get their quarterback to lead off the second round. Jalen Milroe has a lot to work on if he's going to succeed in the pros, but you can't teach the kind of speed and arm strength he has. Guys with those traits always get more chances than they probably deserve due to that scarcity. Milroe is a little young at age 22, and is definitely someone who needs to sit for a year to better learn the position. Cleveland is going nowhere this season, so they can afford to give him that year and see if he can turn into anything.

Louisville

On the flip side of that coin, the Giants front office is essentially a dead man walking. If they don't take a big step forward this season you can bet they will be cleaning house. That goes for the coaching staff and the front office alike. They need a quarterback who can pay immediate dividends, and if that's going to be anyone among the QB's they can attain it is probably going to be Tyler Shough. His ceiling is more limited as a 25 year old with little development time left ahead of him, and durability has been a longstanding issue as well. But he looked electric when he was finally able to make it through a full season at Louisville last year, and he looks the part of a guy who is ready to start on day one. He should have no problem beating out Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston for the job.

Cam Ward will need a go-to target to throw to if he is going to have any chance of taking the Titans back to respectability. Calvin Ridley is solid but 30 years old, and Treylon Burks and Van Jefferson are simply not going to cut it alongside him. Burden was the engine that made Mizzou's offense run, and his explosiveness will force opposing defenses to have to take the Titans passing attack seriously.

Iowa State

The Jaguars want to surround Trevor Lawrence with more playmakers and have a more explosive offense. If so, wide receiver badly needs to be addressed because they got very little outside of Brian Thomas last year. Noel has a knack for big plays and is said to be very high on many a team's draft board.

Notre Dame

The Raiders opt to address a more pressing need here and address their weak secondary. Morrison struggled with injuries but when healthy he is a shutdown man defender with elite ball skills, a welcome addition to a secondary that only had 10 interceptions last season.

Ole Miss

The Patriots need a stud wide receiver even after signing Stefon Diggs, and Harris profiles as a true "X" who can play on the outside. His route tree is a bit more limited than some of the better receiver prospects, but he has a great mix of size and speed which makes him a threat both in the short game and on deep passes. He will need to work at improving his route running and catching in traffic to be a bigger threat in the intermediate level, but he's got enough tools to work with to elevate New England's receiver room.

North Carolina

The Bears are known to be interested in adding Ashton Jeanty to help ease DeAndre Swift's workload. Unable to get Jeanty, they wait until pick 39 and get the next best back in the draft. NFL dot com's Lance Zierlein compares Hampton to Rhamondre Stevenson as a guy who runs like a truck and can handle a high volume of carries and also make some plays in the passing game. He will be a nice backup to Swift immediately and should be a quality starter in short order.

East Carolina

The Saints secondary struggled for most of last season, but isn't necessarily hopeless. Kool-Aid McKinstry had a solid enough rookie year to project him as their top starter going forward. Alonte Taylor had a strong start, but struggled badly after getting moved from the slot to the outside after they traded Marshon Lattimore. Amos is a well-rounded prospect who brings a little bit of everything to the table, and is a natural fit for the outside with his press coverage skills. He needs to refine his game a little bit for the pro level, but he acquitted himself very well in the SEC after transferring to Ole Miss from the Sun Belt.

Texas A&M

The Bears finally go defense with their third pick in the draft. They could use some reinforcements for their pass rush even having addressed this somewhat in free agency. Scourton is a physical, aggressive, yet smart rusher who should thrive across from Montez Sweat.

Oregon

The Jets brought in several guys at DT in free agency, but none of them are really any difference makers, and could be cut without a second thought. The Jets continue to focus on building up their strength in the trenches and get a beast to put next to Quinnen Williams up front.

Ohio State

After losing veterans Maliek Collins and Javon Hargrave, the 49ers still have work to do on rebuilding their defensive front after taking Jalon Walker with their first pick. Tyleik Williams is likely to settle in for more of a two-down role unless unexpected development as a pass rusher occurs, but he should be an excellent early-down run defender at the very least.

The Cowboys could use a lot of things, a rush linebacker among them. Ezeiruaka doesn't have ideal size, but his smarts and physicality more than make up for it. His production at Boston College speaks for itself.

Ohio State

The Colts look to shore up the interior of their offensive line, much to the delight of Anthony Richardson and Jonathan Taylor.

East Carolina

In addition to their non-existent pass rush, the Falcons need to add some fresh talent to their secondary. Revel is one of the highest ceiling prospects in this class, but there is some risk here as Revel is a small school prospect, and there is some scheme risk. Revel looks like a do-it-all type of corner, but his skillset does shine best in a press-man look, while the Falcons play a lot of zone. He is talented enough to work out anyways, so Atlanta is not scared off at this juncture.

Arizona

After aggressively upgrading their defensive front through free agency and using their top pick on Shemar Stewart, the Cardinals can now turn towards patching holes on their offensive line. Savaiinaea has great athleticism for his impressive size, plus experience playing at both guard and tackle in college. He is expected to be a guard at the next level, but it's nice to know if they need to shuffle personnel around mid-year that they have a guy who has experience all over.

Notre Dame

The Dolphins get their replacement for Jevon Holland, who left for the Giants. Watts showed impressive versatility at Notre Dame, showcasing his ability to play single high as well as in the box. He's an incredibly cerebral player and a natural ballhawk.

Landon Jackson has been one of the most productive pass rushers in college football over the past two seasons, with 13 sacks and 25 TFLs.

Minnesota

Ersery could've gone a lot sooner than this, with the Chiefs, Bears, and 49ers all being teams who are probably considering him towards the end of round 1 or early round 2. In this instance, Seattle is thrilled to have him fall into their laps. After going all-in on Sam Darnold this offseason, they need to ensure he is well protected and upright as much as possible.

LSU

It's no secret that Sean Payton loves having a featured tight end in his offense, and unable to get one of Warren or Loveland in the first frame he makes sure to come back and nab Mason Taylor in the second. Taylor's value as a blocker has come into question but his talents as a receiver are undeniable. He will find his way into plenty of targets in Payton's offensive system.

Utah State

After trading away DK Metcalf and cutting Tyler Lockett, the Seahawks need to add another receiver to play with Smith-Njigba and Kupp. Kupp was a nice addition but you can't count on him playing all 17 games at this stage of his career. Royals is a crisp route runner and relies on his smarts to run himself open against zone coverage, but he lacks the top end speed or suddenness to shake press coverage.

UCLA

Tampa keeps upgrading its defense, finding its successor to Lavonte David. David agreed to come back for one more season and still played at a high level last year, but they know the end is near. Schwesinger looks like a three-down linebacker with a great understanding of the game and all the physical tools. Pairing him with a franchise legend like David for a year can only do him good.

Florida State

With Jaire Alexander's days in Green Bay seemingly numbered, the Packers make the call here to replenish their depth at corner. Thomas looks good enough that he should be able to carve out a role rather quickly, and could develop into a true impact player within a couple of years.

Bowling Green

Fannin's a little bit of a reach here, but the Chargers badly need to get Justin Herbert another receiving weapon to work with and most of the WR and TE prospects who grade around this range are already off the board, or the ones that aren't are too redundant to Ladd McConkey who has the slot covered for them. He may never develop into a good blocker and isn't a great athlete, but his pass catching and run after catch skills are good enough to justify this pick for the Chargers anyway.

Iowa State

Josh Allen could also use another target to develop alongside Keon Coleman. Higgins projects as a "big slot" guy and also has huge size with his 6'4'' height.

Ole Miss

After addressing the secondary with their first pick, the Panthers come back and grab a nice speed rusher to add to the mix.

West Virginia

The Texans continue to rebuild their offensive line, as they cannot afford to let CJ Stroud get destroyed behind a porous line. They need to get him some more weapons as well, but priority number one is to make sure they don't get him killed.

Georgia

The Ravens need to address their depth along the offensive line after losing Patrick Mekari and backup Josh Jones in free agency. They are comfortable with Andrew Vorhees' ability to become the starter at left guard, but Ratledge is a good contingency in case that plan falls apart.

Ohio State

The Lions need to maintain depth at edge rusher across from Hutchinson, and Tuimoloau gives them a smart, experienced player to help out their rush.

Iowa State

Washington continues to revamp its secondary with an intriguing, toolsy young corner.

Clemson

Carter is a little small for the position, but an explosive athlete who has been able to overcome that and play at an elite level for Clemson. He looks like a weakside linebacker in the pros, so Buffalo grabs him here to prepare for life without Matt Milano, who has played just 9 games over the last 2 seasons.

South Carolina

Chris Jones isn't getting any younger, and even though he also hasn't shown any signs yet of starting to slow down, the Chiefs could stand to upgrade the talent surrounding him while also preparing Sanders to be the successor to Jones' role in the defense.

Purdue

The Eagles are notorious for using the draft to beef up their lines, even when it's not their biggest need. They could use depth along the right side after losing Mekhi Becton. Tyler Steen is in the mix there as well but has yet to solidify himself, so they would be wise to bring in someone who can compete for that job. Mbow has experience at both right tackle and right guard, so if he doesn't push for playing time immediately he could still serve as a valuable injury fill-in while preparing for a larger role in the future.
