1. Raiders – QB Fernando Mendoza, Indiana
No explanation needed here. Improved his stock at his Pro Day.
2. Jets – LB Sonny Styles, Ohio State
Styles is known to be a professional on and off the field with high potential as a 3 down LB.
3. Cardinals – LB Arvell Reese, Ohio State
The Cardinals need help on both sides but take the best available player and a high potential player in Reese.
4. Titans – RB Jeremiyah Love, Notre Dame
The Titans give QB Cam Ward a workhorse back to grow with and a run game to lean on with Love.
5. Giants – WR Carnell Tate, Ohio State
With WR Malik Nabers coming off injury and a lot of smaller WR options, Tate has the size to be a #2 and the potential to be a #1 WR as the best WR in the draft.
6. Browns – T Monroe Freeling, Georgia
The Browns have rebuilt their O-line in free agency, but Freeling has starting LT potential and size unlike the other lineman.
7. Commanders – S Caleb Downs, Ohio State
The Commanders have rebuilt an old defense in free agency but still need help in the secondary where Downs could fill in at FS.
8. Saints – LB/Edge David Bailey, Texas Tech
The Saints need help on both sides of the ball, but with the best player on the board falling to them in Bailey and veteran pass rusher Cam Jordan not under contract I have him here.
9. Chiefs – CB Mansoor Delane, LSU
The Chiefs loss two starting CBs to the Rams and Delane is an experienced lanky CB with good size, speed, and #1 CB potential.
10. Bengals – T/G Francis Mauigoa, Miami
The Bengals added help on the defensive end and will probably add more, but keeping QB Joe Burrow upright is important, Mauigoa would give them a long-term RT and/or potential Guard.
11. Dolphins – CB Jermod McCoy, Tennessee
The Dolphins need help everywhere, but under new HC Jeff Hafley he likes bigger CBs, and the team has a big need there. McCoy has #1 potential despite not playing least season; he had a good Pro Day.
12. Cowboys – DE/Edge Rueben Bain, Miami
The Cowboys still need help on the edge after the Micah Parsons trade, luckily in this scenario Bain falls to them as teams question his short arms, but he’s a physical player with good strength.
13. Rams (via Falcons) – WR Makai Lemon, USC
The Rams have a luxury pick after a smart move last year, but with the off the field issues with WR Puka Nacua and the age of Davante Adams, they add a tough WR with potential in Lemon.
14. Ravens – TE Kenyon Sadiq, Oregon
The Ravens could go a lot of ways with the new system, but with the loss of TE Isaiah Likely in free agency and the age of TE Mark Andrews, they add the athletic Sadiq who can fill Likely’s role or more.
15. Bucs – DE Keldric Faulk, Auburn
The Bucs need help along the D-line and edge rusher; Faulk is a good run stopper off the edge with NFL size and pass rush potential.
16. Jets (via Colts) – WR Jordyn Tyson, Arizona State
The Jets needs more playmakers with the low production at WR, Tyson is a playmaker with inside/outside potential originally viewed as a top 10 prospect despite the injuries.
17. Lions – T Blake Miller, Clemson
The Lions need help with the movement along the O-line with a big hole at one of the Tackle spots. Miller has impressed scouts with his size, experience, and durability he could fill in at RT.
18. Vikings – S Dillon Thieneman, Oregon
The Vikings need help on both sides of the ball, but with long time veteran S Harrison Smith likely moving on, Thieneman cold fill that spot after a strong Combine showing his athleticism.
19. Panthers – WR K.C. Concepcion, Texas A&M
The Panthers need to continue to find help for QB Bryce Young and Concepcion is a playmaker in space who can help in the return game also.
20. Cowboys (via GB) – CB Colton Hood, Tennessee
After grabbing a pass rusher early in Bain, the Cowboys still need help at CB and Hood is a physical CB with #1 potential.
21. Steelers – QB Ty Simpson, Alabama
The Steelers need to find an answer at QB, especially if veteran QB Aaron Rodgers decides to move on. Simpson is not the big QB the Steelers like, but he has potential, and the Steelers need help.
22. Chargers – G Olaivavega Ioane, Penn State
The Chargers had a lot of losses along the O-line inside and need help, Ioane is a plug and play Guard who will improve the line immediately, especially in the run game.
23. Eagles – DE/Edge T.J. Parker, Clemson
The Eagles need help on the defensive side of the ball, Parker would give them an edge rusher with potential who could play on or off the line.
24. Browns – WR Omar Cooper Jr., Indiana
The Browns need help on the offensive side of the ball after selecting a LT early in this mock, they add WR help in Cooper who has proven to have good size, speed, and potential.
25. Bears – T/G Spencer Fano, Utah
The Bears need help along their O-line, Fano has fallen due to questions about his short arms, but that opens the possibility for him to play Center, he has experience and versatility playing multiple spots.
26. Bills – G Chase Bisontis, Texas A&M
The Bills have a need on the O-line after losing G David Edwards who was known as underrated player, Bisontis is one of the top Guard in the draft and could fill in at LG.
27. 49ers – T Caleb Lomu, Utah
The 49ers need help along the O-line and may have contract issues with veteran LT Trent Williams. Lomu is a player with experience at both Tackle spots and could be groomed as a replacement.
28. Texans – DT Kayden McDonald, Ohio State
The Texans could use help in the interior to help stop the run, McDonald is a run stopper who has potential to be more than a NT with his motor and athleticism.
29. Chiefs (via Rams) – DE Akheem Mesidor, Miami
The Chiefs selected CB help earlier in this mock, with this pick they add pass rush help in Mesidor to help along the D-line as a physical player with good size and potential, despite being 25.
30. Dolphins (via Broncos) – Edge/LB Cashius Howell, Texas A&M
After adding a CB early in the draft, the team adds Howell who could be an underrated prospect as he has good speed and production off the edge, but shorter arms.
31. Patriots – T Max Iheanachor – Arizona State
The Patriots had questions at LT during the playoffs and especially in the Super Bowl, Iheanachor has the size and potential to fill that spot or even give them a long-term solution at RT.
32. Seahawks – CB Brandon Cisse, South Carolina
The Seahawks could use help in the secondary after losing DB Coby Bryant and CB Tariq Woolen. Cisse is a physical CB with good size to play outside with #2 CB potential.
