- Tennessee Titans: Cam Ward, QB, Miami
The Titans finally find their generational talent at QB after years of trying to make it work with stopgap starters. Cam Ward, who transferred to Miami after a stellar stint at Washington State, possesses elite arm talent, creativity outside of structure, and a natural feel for making plays when protection breaks down. In his final college season, he threw for over 4,300 yards and 39 touchdowns, showcasing deep-ball precision and the ability to extend plays with his legs. Tennessee has lacked an actual offensive engine since the peak of Derrick Henry. With Ward’s ability to change games on the move or in the pocket, the franchise finally has a quarterback who can redefine its future.Cam Ward, QB, University of Miami

- Cleveland Browns: Travis Hunter, WR/CB, Colorado
The Browns make a rare move by drafting a true two-way star. Travis Hunter played over 1,000 combined snaps in 2023, with 57 catches for 721 yards and three interceptions at corner. His elite ball skills, positional IQ, and toughness make him a unique player. Cleveland gets an elite playmaker who can shift games on offense or lock down WR1s on defense. His ability to shadow top receivers and still impact the game as a wideout gives the Browns options no other franchise has.Travis Hunter, WR/DB, University of Colorado Boulder

- New York Giants: Abdul Carter, EDGE, Penn State
The Giants land a high-motor, twitchy edge rusher with double-digit sack potential, as Abdul Carter posted nine sacks and 12.5 tackles for loss in 2024, showcasing explosive speed off the edge and violent hands. At 6’3”, 250 lbs, he runs a 4.5 40-yard dash and brings Micah Parsons-like energy to a Giants defense in need of more chaos. With Kayvon Thibodeaux drawing attention, Carter could feast off the opposite side and create one of the league’s most fearsome pass-rushing duos.Abdul Carter, EDGE, Penn State

- New England Patriots: Will Campbell, OT, LSU
New England shores up their offensive line with Campbell, a seasoned SEC tackle who allowed just one sack across more than 750 pass-blocking snaps. At 6’6” and 325 lbs, he brings elite size and rare balance for a lineman. His 91.4 PFF run-blocking grade reflects his mauler tendencies, and he plays with a maturity and consistency the Patriots covet. In a rebuilding offense, Campbell becomes an immediate tone-setter.Will Campbell, OT, LSU

- Jacksonville Jaguars: Mason Graham, DL, Michigan
Jeanty is starting to become a popular pick here at five, but the Jags’ need for an interior defensive lineman is way more severe. Graham is one of the most disruptive interior linemen in the draft, totaling 7.5 tackles for loss and 4.5 sacks while absorbing double teams in Michigan’s vaunted front. His leverage, motor, and hand usage allow him to collapse pockets and stuff the run. Jacksonville adds a foundational defender who fits perfectly into a young, ascending defense. He’ll make life easier for the linebackers behind him and edge rushers beside him.

- Las Vegas Raiders: Ashton Jeanty, RB, Boise State
In Pete Carroll’s new offense, he needs a Marshawn Lynch-type running back, and Jeanty is the closest thing to that in recent years. He put up staggering numbers in 2024: 1,347 rushing yards, 569 receiving yards, and 19 touchdowns. His burst, vision, and receiving ability give Las Vegas a multi-dimensional weapon out of the backfield. The Raiders’ offense becomes more dynamic with Jeanty, a player who can stay on the field for all three downs and deliver in both short-yardage and explosive-play situations.Ashton Jeanty, RB, Boise State

- New York Jets: Tyler Warren, TE, Penn State
Warren gives the Jets a 6’6” red-zone target with soft hands and sneaky route-running ability. He finished 2024 with 34 catches for 422 yards and seven touchdowns, regularly finding holes in zone coverage. He’ll be a key piece in the Jets’ offensive puzzle, particularly in third-down and goal-line situations. His blend of size and fluidity adds a new dimension to the passing attack.

- Carolina Panthers: Jalon Walker, EDGE, Georgia
The Panthers add a freak athlete on the edge. Walker posted eight sacks and 11 tackles for loss in a rotational role, flashing high-end burst and closing speed. At 6’2”, 240 lbs with a 35.5” vertical and 4.6 40-yard dash, he brings the raw traits to develop into a game-changing presence. Carolina continues building its defense around speed and disruption, and Walker fits that identity perfectly.Jalon Walker, EDGE, Georgia

- New Orleans Saints: Jahdae Barron, CB, Texas
My first “crazy” pick. I have had eyes on Barron for a while, and I think he has the potential to be a top corner in the pros. Barron is a physical, instinctive corner who allowed a 50.3 QB rating when targeted. He registered 55 tackles, three interceptions, and eight pass breakups in 2024. With strong tackling and man coverage chops, Barron brings versatility to the Saints’ secondary. His presence will help the Saints better handle NFC South receivers and bolster their press coverage looks.

- Chicago Bears: Omarion Hampton, RB, UNC
This could bring some shock to most fans, but the Bears need a running back more than anything. The only way they get Jeanty is if they trade up and somehow snag him in front of the Raiders, but if they eventually come out of the draft with Hampton, that’s a win in my eyes. Hampton is a downhill runner with 1,504 rushing yards, 15 touchdowns, and a 5.9 YPC average in 2024. He’s a physical back who can wear down defenses and thrive in cold-weather games. For a Chicago offense trying to establish a new identity, Hampton provides a reliable workhorse who complements a mobile quarterback and revives the smashmouth run game.Omarion Hampton, RB, University of North Carolina

- San Francisco 49ers: Walter Nolen, DL, Ole Miss
The 49ers could go in any direction here. They need a cornerback badly, but they end up with Nolen, a former five-star recruit, who brings rare athleticism for a 315-pound interior defender. With 8.5 tackles for loss and five sacks in 2024, he showed the ability to split double teams and collapse pockets. The 49ers, already elite up front, add another dynamic piece who can take pressure off Nick Bosa and dominate from the inside. His hand speed and ability to shoot gaps make him a three-down difference-maker. Nolen’s high ceiling and proven production at a top SEC program give San Francisco even more firepower in the trenches.Walter Nolen, DL, Ole Miss

- Dallas Cowboys: Armand Membou, OT, Mizzou
The Cowboys held private workouts for multiple prospects, but if they opt for the best available here, it’s a win. And Membou is the best available, no question. Membou is a powerful tackle who brings both SEC experience and a strong technical base. At 6’6”, 320 lbs, he allowed just two sacks in over 700 pass-block snaps last season. His footwork and hand placement are advanced, and he thrives in the run game. He brings much-needed youth and reliability to the Cowboys’ offensive line. With Tyron Smith’s future uncertain, Membou offers both immediate starting potential and long-term stability at one of the game’s most valuable positions.Armand Membou, OT, Mizzouri

- Miami Dolphins: Kelvin Banks, OT, Texas
I don’t see a way where the Dolphins don’t go with an offensive lineman here. Banks is one of the most technically refined tackles in the draft. Over two seasons at Texas, he gave up just three total sacks in over 1,000 pass-blocking snaps. His smooth footwork and ability to mirror edge rushers make him an elite pass protector. For a team with Tua’s injury history, Banks is a critical investment. He also provides flexibility in the run game with his quickness off the line and ability to reach the second level, fitting Miami’s outside zone scheme perfectly.Kelvin Banks Jr., OT, Texas

- Indianapolis Colts: James Pearce, EDGE, Tennessee
Pearce erupted in 2024 with 12 sacks and 17.5 tackles for loss. At 6’5”, 242 lbs with freakish length and get-off, he’s the kind of EDGE talent who gives offensive coordinators nightmares. The Colts add a premier pass rusher who can change the complexion of their defense from Day 1. His ability to win with speed or convert power into disruption makes him one of the most dangerous edge defenders in the class. He’ll slot in as the alpha on a young, athletic Colts front.James Pearce Jr., EDGE, Tennessee

- Atlanta Falcons: Mykel Williams, EDGE, Georgia
The Falcons’ need for pass rush is dire, and snagging Williams, one of the best pass rushers in this draft, at 15 is a steal. He brings size, power, and flexibility to Atlanta’s front. With 10.5 TFLs and six sacks in 2024, he was a steady disruptor for Georgia. He sets the edge well and plays with violent hands, giving the Falcons a much-needed presence in the trenches. Williams also brings championship experience and a relentless motor that helps raise the standard across the entire defense. He projects as an immediate starter with long-term Pro Bowl upside.Mykel Williams, EDGE, Georgia

- Arizona Cardinals: Jihaad Campbell, LB, Alabama
Campbell totaled 85 tackles, eight tackles for loss, and two interceptions while flying sideline to sideline for Alabama. With a 4.49 40-yard dash and strong instincts, he gives Arizona a modern linebacker who can cover, blitz, and make plays in space. His versatility enables the Cardinals to utilize him in multiple roles, whether it’s covering tight ends, playing downhill against the run, or spying on mobile quarterbacks. He’s a tone-setter with high football IQ and leadership traits.Jihaad Campbell, LB, Alabama

- Cincinnati Bengals: Matthew Golden, WR, Texas
My first wide receiver off the board, but not the last. Golden gives Cincinnati insurance for potential WR departures and adds another playmaker to an already dangerous group. With 873 yards, nine touchdowns, and a 14.6 YPC average in 2024, he’s a threat at all levels of the field and fits perfectly in a Joe Burrow-led offense. His crisp route-running, reliable hands, and ability to separate against man coverage will make him an instant contributor. Golden has WR2 upside from the jump.Matthew Golden, WR, Texas

- Seattle Seahawks: Will Johnson, CB, Michigan
If he didn’t get injured, Johnson would be the most complete prospect in this draft. Despite his injuries, Johnson has all the makings of a shutdown corner. He allowed just one touchdown in 14 starts, blanketing top receivers in press-man coverage. At 6’2”, 195 lbs, he combines size, quickness, and poise. Seattle lands their next Richard Sherman-style CB1. Johnson’s ability to stay glued to receivers downfield and instinctively jump routes adds a new level of reliability to the Seahawks’ secondary. He can lock down one side of the field and grow into a perennial All-Pro.Will Johnson, CB, Michigan

- Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Shavon Revel Jr., CB, East Carolina
A big pickup here for the Bucs. It may be a reach, but it is a position of necessity. Revel picked off four passes and allowed just a 38.7% completion rate when targeted. He plays bigger than his size with physicality and aggression in man coverage. The Bucs add a fiery competitor who can make an immediate impact in the secondary. His instincts, hips, and closing burst make him a fit in press-heavy schemes, and he thrives when asked to play on an island. With proper development, he has the upside to be a true CB1.Shavon Revel Jr., CB, East Carolina

- Denver Broncos: Luther Burden, WR, Mizzou
No more Jeudy, but here comes a clone of him, but younger. Burden exploded in 2024 with 1,212 receiving yards and nine touchdowns, averaging over 14 yards per catch. His YAC ability is elite, and he brings a spark to a Denver offense in need of playmakers. He’s a WR1 in the making. Burden’s toughness, body control, and explosiveness out of breaks make him a dangerous weapon at all three levels. For a Broncos offense searching for identity, he becomes the centerpiece of the Bo Nix era.Luther Burden, WR, Mizzouri

- Pittsburgh Steelers: Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado
If Sanders doesn’t go at two, I think he drops down to here. No one else would take him, except maybe the Saints. Sanders showed poise and accuracy despite poor O-line play, throwing for 3,230 yards and 27 touchdowns with just three interceptions. He’s calm under pressure and makes high-level throws to all areas of the field. Pittsburgh lands its franchise QB. Sanders’ leadership and command of the huddle also stand out, as does his mental toughness. With the Steelers’ track record of stability and development, he’s in the perfect environment to grow into a star.Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado

- Los Angeles Chargers: Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Arizona
This is my biggest dropper by far. McMillan could go four or nine, but he drops due to his lack of actual top-end speed and explosion, his limited release package, and a tendency to take snaps off when not a primary or secondary read. He will be the number one receiver in Los Angeles and joins an expansive receiver room that has slot receiver Ladd McConkey. McMillan offers size (6’5”), hands, and elite body control with 1,402 yards and 10 TDs in 2024. He gives Herbert a big-play weapon and future WR1. His catch radius and ability to win in contested situations make him a security blanket on third downs and in the red zone.Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Arizona

- Green Bay Packers: Emeka Egbuka, WR, Ohio State
Receivers flying off the board, and receiver-needy teams get worried. They need experience, and Egbuka is a great pick here. Egbuka’s 2024 was slowed by injury, but in 2023, he recorded 1,151 yards and 10 touchdowns. A polished route-runner with soft hands, he can line up inside or out and is a perfect fit for Jordan Love’s timing-based game. Egbuka’s versatility will allow Green Bay to scheme him open in multiple alignments, and his football IQ will accelerate his transition to the NFL. He brings a professional, refined approach that complements the Packers’ young wide receiver core.Emeka Egbuka, WR, Ohio State

- Minnesota Vikings: Jonah Savaiinaea, OT, Arizona
Savaiinaea is a 6’5”, 330-pound lineman with a powerful anchor and nimble feet. He allowed just two sacks last year and consistently moved defenders in the run game. Minnesota finds its future bookend tackle. His balance and recovery in pass sets give him a high floor, while his physical tools offer plenty of upside. Savaiinaea will help protect whoever takes over under center in Minnesota.Jonah Savaiinaea, OT, Arizona

- Houston Texans: Josh Connerly Jr, OT, Oregon
Connerly combines athleticism and pass-blocking prowess, surrendering just one sack in over 500 snaps. He’s tailor-made for Houston’s zone run scheme and helps keep C.J. Stroud upright for the long haul. His foot speed and flexibility allow him to mirror elite edge rushers, and his ceiling is as high as any tackle in this class—a perfect fit for Bobby Slowik’s offense.

- Los Angeles Rams: Shemar Stewart, EDGE, Texas A&M
Another player who could drop, just because of his lack of refined pass rushing technique and his inconsistency in finishing plays. Positively, Stewart notched 6.5 sacks and 13 tackles for loss in 2023, flashing first-round tools and violent hands. He’s a high-upside rusher who can learn behind Aaron Donald and eventually anchor the edge for the Rams. Stewart’s length and motor allow him to win reps late in the play, and he can shift inside on passing downs to create mismatches. LA adds another building block to its reloading defense.Shemar Stewart, EDGE, Texas A&M

- Baltimore Ravens: Josh Simmons, OT, Ohio State
Simmons is a steady pass blocker with versatility to play guard or tackle. He allowed just one sack in Big Ten play and brings a physical edge in the run game. He fits Baltimore’s trench-first philosophy perfectly. With Ronnie Stanley’s future uncertain, Simmons brings much-needed depth and flexibility. He’s also a strong fit in Greg Roman-style gap schemes.Josh Simmons, OT, Ohio State

- Detroit Lions: Grey Zabel, OT, North Dakota State
Zabel, an FCS All-American, didn’t allow a single sack in two seasons and plays with elite awareness. He’s a developmental lineman with starter upside, and he fits the Lions’ culture of grit and physicality. Zabel’s fundamentals and toughness make him an ideal project for Detroit’s coaching staff. He can step in as a swing lineman early and push for a starting role down the line.Greg Zabel, OT, North Dakota State University

- Washington Commanders: Donovan Ezeiruaku, OLB, Boston College
Ezeiruaku posted nine sacks and 15 tackles for loss while displaying great burst and bend. He brings much-needed juice off the edge and will help retool a defense that needs impact players. With Montez Sweat and Chase Young gone, Ezeiruaku becomes the Commanders’ top developmental edge prospect. His upside is enormous with more refinement.Donovan Ezeiruaku, EDGE, Boston College

- Buffalo Bills: Benjamin Morrison, CB, Notre Dame
Morrison allowed a passer rating under 45 in man coverage and recorded eight interceptions in two seasons. He’s instinctive, sticky in coverage, and brings immediate ball skills to a secondary that needs takeaways. With Tre’Davious White aging, Morrison offers a long-term CB1 solution. His footwork, awareness, and confidence make him an instant contributor.Benjamin Morrison, CB, Notre Dame

- Kansas City Chiefs: Isaiah Bond, WR, Texas
Bond is a speedster who averaged nearly 17 yards per catch in 2024. He adds a vertical dimension to the Chiefs’ offense and gives Mahomes a new deep threat to stretch defenses. With his acceleration and route versatility, Bond can operate as a gadget weapon early and develop into the next great Chiefs playmaker. He’ll thrive in Andy Reid’s system.Isaiah Bond, WR, Texas
Photo from Texas Longhorns
- Philadelphia Eagles: Malaki Starks, S, Georgia
Starks had 68 tackles, three picks, and a 4.39 40-yard dash. His closing speed and leadership make him a foundational piece on the back end. Philadelphia lands its next excellent safety. Starks can cover tight ends, roam centerfield, or play in the box. He’s the kind of player who elevates a secondary and becomes the vocal leader of a defense.
