Round 1

Picks 1-16 Picks 17-32 Round 2
17.
Keldric Faulk , DE , Auburn
DET is long overdue to draft a quality 4-3 DE to work opposite Aiden Hutchinson.
18.
Kayden McDonald , DT , Ohio State
Yup - no Thieneman here, and yup, Kayden McDonald this high. It's dire straits along the MIN D-line. McDonald would provide the run-stuffing anchor to the D-line rebuild.
19.
Kenyon Sadiq , TE , Oregon
I'm seeing Sadiq as high as 1.08 and as low as 1.29. This is the Goldilocks zone. I love Sadiq as a complement to Tet McMillan.
20.
Colton Hood , CB , Tennessee
The DAL secondary ranked near the bottom of the league in every meaningful category last season. Quality reinforcements are needed at CB.
21.
Akheem Mesidor , DE , Miami
TRADE!

A new era at LB for the Bucs. Rodriquez is a sideline-to-sideline terror that would be kept clean in Tampa behind Vita Vea and A'Shawn Robinson.
22.
Peter Woods , DT , Clemson
The LA D-line is solid vs. the run, but needs a true pass-rush threat. Woods could be exactly that if he smooths out some inconsistencies.
23.
Blake Miller , OT , Clemson
Classic Roseman "two years from now" pick. Instant starter at RG, and Pro Bowl potential down the line at RT assuming the weight stays under control.
24.
K.C. Concepcion , WR , Texas A&M
A much-needed YAC-getter for the Browns.
25.
Caleb Lomu , OT , Utah
The three-headed LT monster of Jones/Trapilo/Benedet must be slain.
26.
Dillon Thieneman , S , Oregon
A gritty, gutty, surprisingly athletic safety to team up with the gritty, gutty, surprisingly athletic Cole Bishop. Thieneman's ability to play centerfield would allow Bishop to play closer to the line and allow CJG-J to play nickel corner.
27.
Brandon Cisse , CB , South Carolina
CB Renardo Green and his awful 53.5 PFF coverage grade are rumored to be on the trading block.
28.
Max Iheanachor , OT , Arizona State
The high-upside Iheanachor could challenge RG Ed Ingram and RT Braden Smith.
29.
Denzel Boston , WR , Washington
Mahomes needs a big-bodied WR with a large catch radius WR and reliable hands. That's Boston.
30.
Chris Johnson , CB , San Diego State
Sadly, the Storm Duck era must come to an end. Johnson is being rumored to go as high as 1.20.
31.
Ty Simpson , QB , Alabama
TRADE! ARI trades 2.34 and 4.86 to NE for 1.31 and 4.131

Too much ARI/Simpson smoke to ignore. NE moves down four spots and still nets target guy Christen Miller.
32.
Jermod McCoy , CB , Tennessee
I'm suddenly seeing McCoy as the 1st pick in the 2nd round, so why not the last pick in the 1st round?
