Alabama • Jr • 6'4" / 243 lbs

Projected Team
Pittsburgh
PROSPECT RNK
3rd
POSITION RNK
1st

This isn't the Steelers biggest need, but Anderson and T.J. Watt together feels like classic Pittsburgh.

Round 1 - Pick 2

Ohio State • Jr • 6'3" / 218 lbs

Projected Team
Houston
PROSPECT RNK
4th
POSITION RNK
2nd

This should be a layup for the Texans. Upgrade the quarterback position, and good things will start to happen for this franchise.

Round 1 - Pick 3

Alabama • Jr • 6'0" / 194 lbs

Projected Team
Detroit
PROSPECT RNK
1st
POSITION RNK
1st

Young will represent the future, and more athleticism, at the quarterback position in Detroit.

Round 1 - Pick 4

Kentucky • Sr • 6'3" / 232 lbs

Projected Team
Carolina
PROSPECT RNK
5th
POSITION RNK
3rd

It has to be quarterback for the Panthers in the 2023 draft. Levis is a little older yet has franchise passer traits galore.

Round 1 - Pick 5

Clemson • Jr • 6'5" / 275 lbs

Projected Team
Chicago
PROSPECT RNK
POSITION RNK

Murphy hasn't been quite as dominant this year as he was last, but he has traits for days and will pair nicely with Dominique Robinson in Chicago for years to come.

Round 1 - Pick 6

Northwestern • Jr • 6'4" / 315 lbs

Projected Team
Washington
PROSPECT RNK
13th
POSITION RNK
1st

The last time Washington picked an offensive lineman this high it turned out pretty well with Brandon Scherff. Skoronski isn't an athletic marvel; he just blocks everything.

Round 1 - Pick 7

Penn State • Soph • 6'6" / 321 lbs

Projected Team
Jacksonville
PROSPECT RNK
26th
POSITION RNK
6th

The Jaguars' offensive line is still not very good. Fashanu is a young, high-upside blocker.

Round 1 - Pick 8

TCU • Jr • 6'4" / 215 lbs

Projected Team
Indianapolis
PROSPECT RNK
2nd
POSITION RNK
2nd

The Colts need... a lot. Here, they go with the freaky specimen at receiver from TCU.

Round 1 - Pick 9

Clemson • Jr • 6'3" / 240 lbs

Projected Team
N.Y. Jets
PROSPECT RNK
46th
POSITION RNK
6th

Simpson would bring youth and athletic springiness to the Jets defense.

Round 1 - Pick 10

USC • Jr • 6'0" / 175 lbs

Projected Team
Denver
PROSPECT RNK
POSITION RNK

The Broncos have to prioritize the offense for 2023, and Addison has quietly had a strong season after his massive 2021.

Round 1 - Pick 11

South Carolina • Jr • 6'0" / 188 lbs

Projected Team
Las Vegas
PROSPECT RNK
POSITION RNK

The Raiders secondary is reeling. Smith has perimeter cornerback experience -- with plenty of productivity -- in the SEC.

Round 1 - Pick 12

Western Michigan • Jr • 6'5" / 263 lbs

Projected Team
Atlanta
PROSPECT RNK
6th
POSITION RNK
1st

The Falcons have to get better on the edge of their defensive line. Carter is a specimen and knows how to beat blockers in a variety of ways around the corner.

Round 1 - Pick 13

Georgia • Soph • 6'2" / 210 lbs

Projected Team
Arizona
PROSPECT RNK
11th
POSITION RNK
2nd

The Cardinals are another club that needs to emphasize the secondary in the offseason. Ringo is another SEC-tested stud.

Round 1 - Pick 14

Georgia • Jr • 6'7" / 270 lbs

Projected Team
Philadelphia
PROSPECT RNK
15th
POSITION RNK
2nd

The Eagles have Dallas Goedert, one of the better tight ends in the NFL. Washington represents the future of the position and can formulate a terrorizing duo in Philadelphia.

Round 1 - Pick 15

Ohio State • Jr • 6'1" / 200 lbs

Projected Team
Houston
PROSPECT RNK
37th
POSITION RNK
7th

Even if Cooks is on the roster in 2023, the Texans need more receiving firepower. Smith-Njigba looked like the favorite to be the first wideout off the board after his 2021 season.

Round 1 - Pick 16

Iowa • Sr • 6'5" / 246 lbs

Projected Team
Seattle
PROSPECT RNK
12th
POSITION RNK
1st

How about a big, long, athletic, super-productive linebacker for Pete Carroll?

Round 1 - Pick 17

Florida • Soph • 6'4" / 232 lbs

Projected Team
N.Y. Giants
PROSPECT RNK
14th
POSITION RNK
2nd

With this selection, the Giants wouldn't have to rush Richardson onto the field. He has All-Pro upside.

Round 1 - Pick 18

Notre Dame • Jr • 6'4" / 265 lbs

Projected Team
New England
PROSPECT RNK
8th
POSITION RNK
1st

A squeaky-clean tight end with natural pass-catching gifts.

Round 1 - Pick 19

North Carolina • Jr • 5'10" / 175 lbs

Projected Team
Green Bay
PROSPECT RNK
7th
POSITION RNK
1st

Yes, a receiver for the Packers in Round 1. Downs is a slippery, explosive weapon.

Round 1 - Pick 20

Georgia • Soph • 6'4" / 310 lbs

Projected Team
Tennessee
PROSPECT RNK
POSITION RNK

The Titans know their identity and stick to it. Adding more offensive line talent to this team is sensible.

Round 1 - Pick 21

Illinois • Jr • 6'0" / 180 lbs

Projected Team
Detroit
PROSPECT RNK
POSITION RNK

Witherspoon would add another talented outside cornerback to the Lions roster. It's needed.

Round 1 - Pick 22

Texas A&M • Jr • 6'2" / 205 lbs

The Chargers seem to have a quality defense on paper, the results just haven't been there. Jones would add even more high-end talent to that secondary.

Round 1 - Pick 24

Baylor • Jr • 6'4" / 358 lbs

Projected Team
Cincinnati
PROSPECT RNK
32nd
POSITION RNK
4th

The Bengals are lacking depth on the defensive line. Ika is a nose tackle with legitimate pass-rush ability.

Round 1 - Pick 25

Alabama • Jr • 6'0" / 193 lbs

Projected Team
Tampa Bay
PROSPECT RNK
POSITION RNK

The Buccaneers add a versatile playmaker to their young secondary.

Round 1 - Pick 26

Texas Tech • Sr • 6'6" / 275 lbs

Projected Team
Minnesota
PROSPECT RNK
POSITION RNK

Wilson was good last year, and he's been a monster in 2022. More edge-rushing help for Minnesota. Wilson learning from Za'Darius Smith and Danielle Hunter would be fantastic.

Round 1 - Pick 27

SMU • Sr • 6'2" / 203 lbs

Projected Team
Dallas
PROSPECT RNK
41st
POSITION RNK
8th

The Cowboys stay local to get Dak Prescott a tall, speedy burner to add more young talent to the receiver room.

Round 1 - Pick 28

LSU • Jr • 6'0" / 205 lbs

Projected Team
Baltimore
PROSPECT RNK
23rd
POSITION RNK
3rd

Boutte is too talented to pass up this late in Round 1 for a team like the Ravens that needs receiver help.

Round 1 - Pick 29

Florida State • Soph • 6'4" / 248 lbs

Projected Team
Denver
PROSPECT RNK
POSITION RNK

The Broncos could use another rusher on the outside after trading Bradley Chubb to the Dolphins at the trade deadline, which is how they got this pick. Verse has been tremendous for the Seminoles this season.

Round 1 - Pick 30

Kansas State • Jr • 6'4" / 255
