Round 1 - Pick 1 Kentucky • Sr • 6'3" / 232 lbs Projected Team Indianapolis PROSPECT RNK 2nd POSITION RNK 1st The Colts have been aggressive at quarterback of late, but the last two veteran quarterback acquisitions have flopped. It's time to get a youthful passer in Indianapolis, and Levis, while far from perfect, has No. 1 overall pick traits. Round 1 - Pick 2 Alabama • Jr • 6'0" / 194 lbs Projected Team Houston PROSPECT RNK 1st POSITION RNK 1st The Texans upgrade the quarterback position in a big way with Young, who has all the improvisational brilliance to succeed in today's NFL. Round 1 - Pick 3 Georgia • Jr • 6'3" / 300 lbs Projected Team Arizona PROSPECT RNK 4th POSITION RNK 1st Carter is the ideal replacement for the retiring J.J. Watt. He's a long, hyper-athletic interior rusher who's disruptive on three downs. Round 1 - Pick 4 Alabama • Jr • 6'4" / 243 lbs Projected Team Chicago PROSPECT RNK 3rd POSITION RNK 2nd Anderson gives me serious Khalil Mack vibes, which makes this perfect for the Bears, particularly after trading back. In the trade, the Bears get this pick, the Colts' selections in Round 2 and Round 4 along with a 2024 first-round pick and third-round pick plus a 2025 second-round choice. Round 1 - Pick 5 Ohio State • Jr • 6'3" / 218 lbs Projected Team Carolina PROSPECT RNK 7th POSITION RNK 1st To get ahead of the Lions and Raiders, the Panthers make an assertive move with the Seahawks, who don't love how the board fell with Carter and Anderson off the board. Stroud is such a polished pocket passer. Round 1 - Pick 6 Illinois • Jr • 6'0" / 180 lbs Projected Team Detroit PROSPECT RNK 6th POSITION RNK 3rd Witherspoon looks like a supreme athlete, and his 2022 film was squeaky clean. He could ascend to the first cornerback off the board in this class. Round 1 - Pick 7 Florida • Soph • 6'4" / 232 lbs Projected Team Las Vegas PROSPECT RNK 5th POSITION RNK 2nd Richardson isn't exactly the type of quarterback Josh McDaniels has worked with in the past but it's time for the Raiders offense to evolve. Richardson has big-time abilities and can be scary good if those abilities are harnessed. Round 1 - Pick 8 Texas Tech • Sr • 6'6" / 275 lbs Projected Team Atlanta PROSPECT RNK 19th POSITION RNK 4th Wilson is a long, athletic pass-rushing specialist. Music to the ears of GM Terry Fontenot. Round 1 - Pick 9 Clemson • Jr • 6'5" / 275 lbs Projected Team Seattle PROSPECT RNK 18th POSITION RNK 3rd Murphy is not a finished product. When he is, if he learns how to utilize his hands as weapons as a pass rusher, he can be an All-Pro type. The Seahawks adore freaky athletes. In the move back, the Seahawks get Carolina's second Round 2 pick (No. 62 overall) and a fourth-round selection. Round 1 - Pick 10 Iowa • Soph • 6'5" / 275 lbs Projected Team Philadelphia PROSPECT RNK 31st POSITION RNK 5th Van Ness is going to be a major riser during the pre-draft process. He's long, plays with a non-stop motor and has pass-rush moves to go along with smooth athleticism. The Eagles have to reload along the defensive line. Round 1 - Pick 11 Northwestern • Jr • 6'4" / 315 lbs Projected Team Tennessee PROSPECT RNK 34th POSITION RNK 4th The Titans want to control the line of scrimmage and had problems doing that this season. Skoronski is one of the safer prospects in this class. Round 1 - Pick 12 USC • Jr • 6'0" / 175 lbs Projected Team Houston PROSPECT RNK 23rd POSITION RNK 2nd Addison can either learn lots from the similarly sized Brandin Cooks in Year 1, or act as his instant replacement. With Young and Addison, this is a quality first-round haul for Houston. Round 1 - Pick 13 Ohio State • Jr • 6'6" / 310 lbs Projected Team N.Y. Jets PROSPECT RNK 17th POSITION RNK 2nd Could the Jets be major players on the veteran QB market? I think they will. So for the draft, they build the offensive line with Johnson, a super-steady tackle prospect. Round 1 - Pick 14 TCU • Jr • 6'4" / 215 lbs Projected Team New England PROSPECT RNK 8th POSITION RNK 1st Yes, Bill Belichick dipping back into Round 1 wide receiver waters with the imposing, long-striding Johnston, who'll instantly be a threatening deep threat in the NFL. Round 1 - Pick 15 Alabama • Jr • 6'0" / 193 lbs Projected Team Green Bay PROSPECT RNK 13th POSITION RNK 3rd Branch did everything on the back seven of Alabama's defense this past season. He'll be a welcomed addition to the Packers roster. Round 1 - Pick 16 South Carolina • Jr • 6'0" / 188 lbs Projected Team Washington PROSPECT RNK 22nd POSITION RNK 1st The Commanders have to get better play out of the outside cornerback position. Smith is a big, physical, dynamic athlete at the position. Round 1 - Pick 17 Penn State • Jr • 6'2" / 194 lbs Projected Team Pittsburgh PROSPECT RNK 26th POSITION RNK 4th Another Joey Porter in Pittsburgh. This one is a lanky, twitched-up perimeter corner who plays the ball well in the air. Round 1 - Pick 18 Notre Dame • Jr • 6'4" / 265 lbs Projected Team Detroit PROSPECT RNK 10th POSITION RNK 1st The Lions get an instant T.J. Hockenson replacement in Mayer, who joins a fun offense in Detroit. Round 1 - Pick 19 Georgia • Soph • 6'4" / 310 lbs Projected Team Tampa Bay PROSPECT RNK 21st POSITION RNK 3rd Jones isn't ready to be a high-caliber NFL blocker right now. He has to get stronger and play with better balance. His movement skills give him plenty of upside. Round 1 - Pick 20 Clemson • Soph • 6'5" / 305 lbs Projected Team Seattle PROSPECT RNK 25th POSITION RNK 3rd He's not consistent, but Bresee's flashes are jaw-dropping. He's the big-body type the Seahawks need along their defensive line. Murphy and Bresee in Round 1 for Seattle would be fantastic for this team's future. Round 1 - Pick 21 Tennessee • Jr • 6'0" / 185 lbs New offensive coordinator Kellen Moore will allow Justin Herbert to push the ball downfield more frequently than the QB did with Joe Lombardi. So it's time to get Herbert a serious vertical weapon. That's precisely what Hyatt is. Round 1 - Pick 22 Oregon • Soph • 6'2" / 201 lbs Projected Team Baltimore PROSPECT RNK 38th POSITION RNK 1st The Ravens add youth to their secondary with Gonzalez, whose film was super clean in 2022. Round 1 - Pick 23 Pittsburgh • Jr • 6'0" / 280 lbs Projected Team Minnesota PROSPECT RNK 24th POSITION RNK 4th Kancey's a smaller defensive tackle, but has major juice and a developed set of pass-rush moves. He's the type Minnesota needs on the interior. Round 1 - Pick 24 Oklahoma • Jr • 6'5" / 315 lbs Projected Team Jacksonville PROSPECT RNK 32nd POSITION RNK 6th The Jaguars add to the offensive front to protect Trevor Lawrence. Harrison is a masher on the outside. Round 1 - Pick 25 Ohio State • Jr • 6'1" / 200 lbs Projected Team N.Y. Giants PROSPECT RNK 11th POSITION RNK 2nd The Giants added in the trenches early in the 2022 draft. This time, they go receiver in Round 1. Smith-Njigba is a deceptive YAC type when healthy. Round 1 - Pick 26 Arkansas • Jr • 6'5" / 233 lbs Projected Team Dallas PROSPECT RNK 29th POSITION RNK 4th The Cowboys could be extremely multiple with Sanders on the defense next to Micah Parsons. Sanders is a long, athletic off-ball/edge hybrid. Round 1 - Pick 27 Mississippi State • Jr • 6'0" / 180 lbs Projected Team Cincinnati PROSPECT RNK 30th POSITION RNK 5th The Bengals dip into the defensive back well early in the draft again because Forbes is a big play waiting to happen at corner. Round 1 - Pick 28 Western Michigan • Jr • 6'5" / 263 lbs Projected Team New Orleans PROSPECT RNK 72nd POSITION RNK 10th With Marcus Davenport set for free agency and Cam Jordan the highest cap hit on the team in 2023, it's time for the Saints to reload at the edge rusher spot. Carter is a long, active, athletic defender. Round 1 - Pick 29 Penn State • Soph • 5'10" / 212 lbs Projected Team Buffalo PROSPECT RNK 42nd POSITION RNK 8th Washington, the Nittany Lions' leading receiver in 2022, adds a much-needed YAC weapon to Josh Allen's arsenal. Round 1 - Pick 30 Kansas State • Jr • 6'4" / 255 lbs Projected Team Kansas City PROSPECT RNK 47th POSITION RNK 5th The Chiefs again pick a late first-round edge in hopes of eliminating some pressure from Chris Jones on the inside. Round 1 - Pick 31 Texas • Jr • 6'0" / 220 lbs Projected Team Philadelphia PROSPECT RNK 18th POSITION RNK 2nd Robinson running behind the league's best offensive line? Sounds like a blast for Philadelphia. Not so much for Eagles opponents.
