2018 NFL DRAFT: FINAL MOCK DRAFT

First Round 

1. CLEVELAND BROWNS (0-16) 
Sam Darnold-QB-USC 
6-3/221 
NFL Comparison: Andrew Luck/Phillip Rivers 



The Browns will finally do what they should of done the past two drafts and select a true franchise QB. They have been rumored to be in love with Josh Allen but that seems like a smoke screen. 

Darnold is consensus top QB prospect by nearly all scouts. He has the skill set, size and toughness the Browns need. He will be in a good position to succeed early given the talent around him with Jarvis Landry, Josh Gordon, Duke Johnson and Corey Coleman. 

2. NEW YORK GIANTS (3-13) 

Saquon Barkley-RB-Penn St 
6-0/233/4.4/29 reps 
NFL Comparison: Bo Jackson/Marshall Faulk 

The G-Men could go a bunch of directions here. They could trade down to a team looking for a QB (Buffalo, Arizona, Miami). If they keep the pick, Barkley makes too much sense. He is the highest rated player by nearly every board and can come in day one and be among the best backs in the NFL. 

He can help to take the pressure off of Eli Manning the way that Alvin Kamara and Mark Ingram helped Drew Brees last year. Barkley has an unreal blend of speed, power and quickness. He is also a solid pass catcher and blocker. If he is as good as advertised the Giants could be back in the playoffs in 2019. 

3. NEW YORK JETS (5-11) 
VIA PRE DRAFT TRADE WITH THE 
INDIANAPOLIS COLTS 
Baker Mayfield-QB-Oklahoma 
6-0/215 
NFL Comparison: Heath Shuler/Case Keenum 

 The Jets traded up to #3 to land their future franchise QB. Mayfield is the most accurate passer in this draft. Mayfield has the competitive drive and play making ability that they need and he will be considered as well. The Jets have probably the worst offensive talent in the league so having a competitor like Mayfield will be important as they continue to struggle. However, Mayfield lacks the size and arm talent of the other top QBs. 

I would not take him this high and if he goes #3, I think he will end up like another Heath Shuler. Shuler was take #3 overall in 1994 (right behind Barkley's player comparison Marshall Faulk) and could not match his incredible college success. 


4. CLEVELAND BROWNS (0-16) 
Bradley Chubb-EDGE-NC St. 
6-4/275/4.65/24 reps 
NFL Comparison: Justin Tuck/Everson Griffen 

After getting the franchise QB at #1, GM John Dorsey will want to add a stud to his defense. Chubb is a great pass rusher with an incredible motor. Some scouts have said that he is better than 2017 #1 overall pick Myles Garrett. In Chubb and Garrett the Browns can have the premier young pass rush duo in the NFL. 

PROJECTED TRADE WITH THE DENVER BRONCOS 
DENVER RECEIVES #12, #56 AND #65 
5. BUFFALO BILLS (9-7) 
Josh Rosen-QB-UCLA 
6-4/226 
NFL Comparison: Jim Kelly/Sam Bradford 

I have the Bills trading up get a franchise QB that I compare to former Buffalo Hall of Fame QB Jim Kelly. Rosen is the best pure passer in this draft and also have the prototypical arm strength needed to play in the Buffalo. If he slips past the top 3, many teams including Buffalo, Miami, Arizona and maybe even New England will be one the phone with 
Denver. 

6. INDIANAPOLIS COLTS (4-12) 
VIA PRE DRAFT TRADE WITH THE NEW YORK JETS 
Roquan Smith-LB-Georgia 
6-1/236/4.51 
NFL Comparison: Thomas Davis/Patrick Willis 

Indy recently switched defensive coordinators and will move to a 4-3 Tampa 2 defensive sheme. Smith would be a perfect fit as a 4-3 Will LB in the Derrick Brooks/Thomas Davis mode. Smith is also big enough to play the Mike as well. He is an absolute tackling machine that is also good in coverage. He will add an edge and toughness that the Colts have been lacking. 

7. TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS (5-11) 
Derwin James-SS/DB-FSU 
6-2/215/4.47/40 vert 
NFL Comparison: Kam Chancellor/Morgan Burnett 

In a division with Drew Brees, Matt Ryan and Cam Newton you need impact defensive backs. Tampa was DEAD LAST against the pass in 2017. James is a freak athlete with versatile skills. He will be be used in the box like Chancellor and great size to matchup against Julio Jones, Michael Thomas and Greg Olsen. 

8. CHICAGO BEARS (5-11) 
Quenton Nelson-G-ND 
6-5/325/35 reps 
NFL Comparison: Larry Allen/David DeCastro 

The Bears sprint to the podium to get his pick in. Nelson should instantly become one of the 
best interior lineman in the NFL. He may be the safest pick in the draft. His combination of size and power are as good as any player currently in the league. He is great in pass protection and as a run blocker. 

9. SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS (6-10) 
Tremaine Edmunds-LB-VA Tech 
6-5/250/4.54/19 reps 
NFL Comparison: Anthony Barr/KJ Wright 

Edmunds gives the 49ers a playmaking LB that can play inside or outside. He has been productive the past two seasons averaging 101 tackles and 5 sacks. With the uncertainty surrounding 2017 first round pick Reuben Foster, the 49ers would be smart to invest in a stud LB early in the draft. 

10. OAKLAND RAIDERS (6-10) 
Minkah Fitzpatrick-DB-Alabama  
6-0/204/4.46 
NFL Comparison: Rod Wodson/Antrel Rolle 

Head Coach Jon Gruden wants guys that are NFL ready. No one in this draft is as ready as Fitzpatrick. He is a versatile DB that can play slot corner or drop as a free safety. I know Rod Woodson may be a lofty comparison but his floor is probably Antrel Rolle. Rolle had a great career as a 3 time Pro Bowler and Super Bowl Champ. Like both Woodson and Rolle, Fitzpatrick should be able to play both safety and corner at a high level. 

11. MIAMI DOLPHINS (6-10) 
Denzel Ward-CB-Ohio ST 
5-11/183/4.32/39 vert 
NFL Comparison: Chris Harris/Desmond Trufant 

What Ward lacks in size, he makes up for with freak speed and athletic ability. The Dolphins have drafted bigger stiff corners in Xavien Howard and Cordrea Tankersley. Ward would be the perfect complement to those guys and safety Reshad Jones. There has been a lot of talk of the Dolphins taking a QB. However they may wait to later to address that position as they have met with or worked out many of the second tier QBs including Mason Rudolph and Luke Falk. They could also trade back into the first to land local superstar Lamar Jackson. 

PROJECTED TRADE WITH THE BUFFALO BILLS 
12. DENVER BRONCOS (5-11)
ORIGINAL PICK VIA PRE DRAFT TRADE WITH THE CINCINNATI BENGALS 
Josh Allen-QB-Wyoming 
6-5/237
NFL Comparison: Jake Locker/EJ Manuel 

In this scenario the Broncos trade down and still get a top QB. This would be a dream scenario for John Elway and company. Allen is extremely raw but has the strongest arm in this draft and would be put in a ideal situation to sit behind newly signed Case Keemun for a year or two. 

13. WASHINGTON REDSKINS (7-9) 
Vita Vea-NT-Washington
6-4/347/41 reps
NFL Comparison: Haloti Ngata/Linval Joseph

The Redkins were 31st in run defense last year. Vea is exactly what they need as a nose tackle in their 3-4 defense. Vea and 2017 first round pick Jonathan Allen can turn what was once the worst defensive line in the league, a major strength. Vea's 6-4/347/41 reps is NOT a misprint, he is that big and that powerful. 

14. GREEN BAY PACKERS (7-9) 
Marcus Davenport-EDGE-UTSA
6-6/264/4.58/22 reps
NFL Comparison: Ziggy Ansah/Shawne Merriman

This would be an ideal landing spot for Davenport as he is still raw and will need some time to develop.He could learn a lot from veterans Clay Matthews and Nick Perry. He is an extremely long and rangy pass rusher that can play both DE and OLB. Davenport could have a similar impact to Derek Barnett in 2017 as he was also drafted #14 overall and went to a team with great veteran pass rushers in Brandon Graham, Chris Long and Vinny Curry. Barnett was all rookie with 5 sacks on his way to Super Bowl win. The Packers 

15. ARIZONA CARDINALS (8-8)
Lamar Jackson-QB-Louisville
6-2/216
NFL Comparison: Michael Vick/Tyrod Taylor

Arizona needs play makers and there's been no bigger play maker in college football the past two years than Jackson. In Arizona, he could sit behind Sam Bradford for a year and be used in red zone packages. This could be a good landing spot as long as All Pro RB David Johnson returns to 100%. This will take pressure off of Jackson. It would be fun to have so many good young QBs in the NFC West as Jackson would join Russell Wilson, Jimmy Garoppolo and Jared Goff.

16. BALTIMORE RAVENS (9-7)
Mike McGlinchey-OT-ND
6-8/309/24 reps
NFL Comparison: Anthony Castonzo/Ryan Schraeder 

The Ravens pair 2016 first round pick Ronnie Stanley with his college teammate. McGlinchey has the size and length to play left tackle but as a right tackle can become elite. This is why I compare him to Schraeder. The Ravens were below average at right tackle after losing Ricky Wagner in free agency last season. Legendary GM Ozzie Newsome goes with the safe but not sexy pick in his final draft as GM.

17. LOS ANGELES CHARGERS (9-7) 
Taven Bryan-3T/5T/NT/DL-Florida
6-5/291/4.98/30 reps
NFL Comparison: Kyle Williams/Cameron Hayward

Bryan is an athletic freak that can play anywhere on Gus Bradley's defensive line. He will not face many double teams with Joey Bosa and Melvin Ingram on the outside. He is still raw and will need time to develop but guys with his size/speed usually do well. 


PROJECTED TRADE WITH THE SEATTLE SEAHAWKS 
SEATTLE RECEIVES #26, #90 and a 2019 3rd round pick 
18. ATLANTA FALCONS (10-6)
Da'Ron Payne-NT/3T/DL-Alabama
6-2/311/27 reps
NFL Comparison: Jurrell Casey/Timmy Jernigan 

Goodbye Mr. Poe, hello Mr. Payne. After Poe in free agency the Falcons make sure they trade up to get the interior defender they need. Payne has a lot of power and like Bryan play both nose and three tech. With no picks in the 2nd or 3rd round, Seattle is a likely candidate to trade down. At #26 they can still get a good corner or offensive lineman.

19. DALLAS COWBOYS (9-7)
DJ Moore-WR-Maryland
6-0/210/4.42/39.5
NFL Comparison: Davante Adams/Hakeem Nicks 

The Cowboys need a #1 WR after releasing Dez Bryant. Similar to Adams and Nicks, Moore is a big target despite lack of height. He make up for it with elite speed, leaping ability and has a strong frame built more like a RB.

20. DETROIT LIONS (9-7) 
Harold Landry-DE-Boston College
6-2/252/4.64/6.88-3 cone
NFL Comparison: Jerry Hughes/Melvin Ingram

Ziggy Ansah is a beast and Anthony Zettel is improving but the Lions still need to add more to their pass rush. Also, Ziggy is playing on a one year franchise tag. Landry was great in 2016 but had a slight drop off in 2017. He's a little on the shorter size for an EDGE defender but like Hughes and Ingram he can make up for it with monster productivity.

21. CINCINNATI BENGALS (7-9)
James Daniels-C/G-Iowa
6-3/290/21 reps 
NFL Comparison: Rodney Hudson/Maurkice Pouncey

The Bengals traded for Buffalo's Cordy Glenn. That will be a great move if he can stay healthy. Clint Boling is a solid starter but he needs a lot of help on the inside. Daniels is a safe pick here as he is a plug and play starter at center. He is undersized but very athletic. He has three years starting experience in the Big Ten and is an Ohio native. 

22. BUFFALO BILLS (9-7) 
Calvin Ridley-WR-Alabama
6-0/189/4.43
NFL Comparison: Antonio Brown/Santonio Holmes

After trading up for their QB, Buffalo gives their young signal caller a deep threat WR. Ridley would be an ideal fit with slot man Zay Jones and big red zone threat Kelvin Benjamin. If the draft plays out like this, Rosen and Ridley could form a duo in Buffalo that would remind fans of Jim Kelly and Andre Reed. 

23. NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS (13-3) 
VIA PRE DRAFT TRADE WITH THE 
LOS ANGELES RAMS
Leighton Vander Esch-LB-Boise St. 
6-4/256/4.65/6.88-3 cone
NFL Comparison: Brian Cushing/Jamie Collins

The Patriots value versatility in their LBs and no one may be more versatile than Vander Esch. He can play inside or outside, can rush the passer, drop into coverage and is a good open field tackler. He may drop in the draft due to concerns about a neck/spine injury, but with two picks in the first the Patriots can afford the risk on a player with this much upside. 


24. CAROLINA PANTHERS (11-5)
Josh Jackson-CB-Iowa
6-1/196/4.56
NFL Comparison: Chris Gamble/Josh Norman

This pick seems like a no brainier. Jackson is the best player on the board and fills one of the Panthers biggest needs. He is very similar to former Panther Chris Gamble. Both player have great length and both started their college careers as WRs. Jackson is also similar to former Panther and current Redskin Josh Norman with his elite length and physical skills. Carolina also needs interior offensive line but Jackson makes too much sense here. 

25. TENNESSEE TITANS (9-7)
Rashaan Evans-LB-Alabama 
6-3/240/4.73 
NFL Comparison: Jordan Hicks/Tahir Whitehead 

Avery Williamson left for the Big Apple after a breakout season. The Titans need help at LB and Evans is a good player that was used in a variety of ways in Alabama's defense. He can come in right away and compete for a starting job with Wesley Woodyard and Will Compton. New Head Coach Mike Vrabel will find ways to get this guy on the field. 

PROJECTED TRADE WITH ATLANTA
26. SEATTLE SEAHAWKS (9-7) 
Kolton Miller-OT-UCLA
6-9/309/24 reps/4.91/10-1 broad jump
NFL Comparison: Sebastian Vollmer/Eric Winston

This is one of the worst offensive lines in the NFL. They need help everywhere and may look to the west coast product to help QB Russell Wilson. Miller is a freak athlete for a man his size. He may need some time to develop but guys this athletic are worth the wait. 


27. NEW ORLEANS SAINTS (11-5)
Mike Gesicki-TE-Penn St
6-5/247/4.54/41.5 vert/22 reps/6.76-3 cone
NFL Comparison: Jordan Cameron/Jared Cook

Recent draft history show the Saints value great athletes. Gesicki dominated the combine with his freak athletic ability. He can come in and play the role Jimmy Graham played from 2010-2014. He isn't a good blocker but they need a pass catching TE in the red zone and that is what Gesicki does best.


28. PITTSBURGH STEELERS (13-3)
Justin Reid-S-Stanford
6-0/207/4.4/36.5 vert
NFL Comparison: Malcolm Jenkins/LaRon Landry

With all of the top LBs off the board this pick becomes pretty easy for the Steelers. They need help on the back end and Reid is a good safety that can cover deep, cover the slot and help in the box. This will allow Sean Davis to move to corner or be a rotational DB. 

29. JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS (10-6) 
Isaiah Wynn-G/RT-Georgia
6-2/308
NFL Comparison: Shaq Mason/Trai Turner 

This basically comes down to Wynn or Will Hernanadez. Wynn's versatility and quickness give him the slight edge here. Wynn should become an instant starter over AJ Cann and guard and given the injury history of tackle's Cam Robinson and Jeremy Parnell, Wynn makes sense as an emergency tackle replacement. The Florida native has three years starting experience in the SEC. Jacksonville has a history of going for guy from major programs. 

30. MINNESOTA VIKINGS (13-3)
Will Hernandez-G-UTEP
6-2/327/37 reps
NFL Comparison: Mike Iupati/Loius Vasquez

They made Kirk Cousins the highest paid QB in the NFL this offseason. If they hope to keep him healthy they will need to upgrade the line. Hernandez is a power man guard that will be a force in the run game. Centers Frank Ragnow and Billy Price will also be considered here but Hernandez is the best interior lineman available.

31. NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS (13-3)
Connor Williams-OT/LT-Texas
6-5/296/26 reps/34 vert
NFL Comparison: Lane Johnson/Jordan Gross

The run on offensive lineman continues as the Patriots get the athletic Williams. They have big need at left tackle following the departure of Nate Solder. Williams will have a chance to compete for the starting left tackle job right away. He has a lot of experience as he started as a true Freshman at Texas. The Patriots may even take him at #23. 

32. PHILADELPHIA EAGLES (13-3)
Derrius Guice-RB-LSU
5-10/224/4.49
NFL Comparison: Joseph Addai/Frank Gore

This pick makes a lot of sense as Guice is the best player on the board and the Eagles need a running back. Guice should be able to take the role as the lead back over Jay Ajayi. Guice is an every down back that has good size and speed. He is the clear cut second back in this draft behind Barkley. He could go as high as #13 to division rival Washington, but I think his floor is at the end of the first round. 


Second  Round

33. CLEVELAND BROWNS 
Maurice Hurst-3T/DL-Michigan
6-2/292/29 reps
NFL Comparison: Mike Daniels/Geno Atkins

Hurst may slip due to due to injury concerns over his irregular heart beat found at the combine. With 5 picks in the top 64, the Browns can take a risk.


34. NEW YORK GIANTS
Billy Price-C/G-Ohio ST
6-4/305 NFL Comparison: Nick Mangold/Ben Jones 

The O-Line still needs a lot of help. Price can help pave holes for his former Big Ten rival Saquon Barkley. 


35. CLEVELAND BROWNS 
VIA PRE DRAFT TRADE WITH HOUSTON 
Orlando Brown-OT/RT-Oklahoma 
6-8/345 
NFL Comparison: Bryant McKinnie/Phil Loadholt 

The Browns take another smart risk. Brown was a top 15 lock until a horrible combine showing. However his experience and tape are still good. 


36. INDIANAPOLIS COLTS 
Ronnie Harrison-SS-Alabama
6-2/207/4.65/34 vert
NFL Comparison: Barry Church/Mark Barron

The Colts get a true box safety to pair with 2017 first round pick and free safety Malik Hooker. Harrison is a hard hitter but may end up having to play more of a LB role like Mark Barron due to his coverage liabilities. 


37. INDIANAPOLIS COLTS 
VIA PRE DRAFT TRADE WITH THE 
NEW YORK JETS
Sam Hubbard-LDE/DEGE-Ohio ST
6-5/265/6.84-3 cone
NFL Comparison: Paul Kruger/Mike Vrabel

The Colts were 31st in the league in sacks. Hubbard is a perfect fit as a DE in the Colts new 4-3 defense. 


38. TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS
Frank Ragnow-C/G-Arkansas
6-5/312/26 reps
NFL Comparison: Brandon Linder/Brad Meester

Ragnow is seeing his stock rise and may move into the first round. He can compete for the starting guard spot in Tampa and provide insurance in case Ali Marpet leaves in free agency next year. Ragnow is a beast that never gave up a sack in his entire SEC career. 


39. CHICAGO BEARS
Mike Hughes-CB/KR-UCF
5-10/189/4.53/35.5 vert
NFL Comparison: Janoris Jenkins/Adam Jones

The value is too good for Hughes. He could end up going in the first but my guess is that he doesn't last every long on Friday night. 


40. DENVER BRONCOS
Isaiah Oliver-CB-Colorado 
6-1/201/4.5 
NFL Comparison: Darius Slay/TJ Carrie 

The Broncos will be thrilled if they can get the local corner from Colorado. Oliver is long and will help replace the void left by Aqib Talib. 


41. OAKLAND RAIDERS
Christian Kirk-WR/KR-Texas A&M
5-10/201/4.47/20 reps
NFL Comparison: Golden Tate/Lee Evans

The Raiders need some young play maker on the offense and Kirk is electric as both a slot receiver and as a return man. 


42. MIAMI DOLPHINS
Mason Rudolph-QB-OK ST 
6-5/235
NFL Comparison: Brad Johnson/Chad Henne 

Rudolph in the first is a reach, mid way through the second is a smart pick. 


43. NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS 
VIA PRE DRAFT TRADE WITH 
THE SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS 
Hayden Hurst-TE-South Carolina 
6-4/250/4.67 
NFL Comparison: Todd Heap/Zach Ertz 

Rather than trade up for Tom Brady's replacement, the Patriots get him another weapon and give themselves some insurance in case Gronk gets injured or retires early. 


44. WASHINGTON REDSKINS 
Carlton Davis-CB-Auburn
6-1/206/4.53/34 vert/16 reps
NFL Comparison: Trumaine Johnson/Carlos Rodgers

The perfect physical corner to fit in their press scheme. Davis could eventually become the teams #1 corner as Josh Norman's play is starting to fall off a bit. 


45. GREEN BAY PACKERS 
Jaire Alexander-CB-Louisville
5-10/196/4.38/35 vert
NFL Comparison: Stephon Gilmore/Robert Alford

Alexander may slip due to concerns over his knee. At #45 this could be a major steal for the DB needy Packers. 


46. CINCINNATI BENGALS 
Harrison Phillips-NT/3T/DL-Stanford 
6-3/307/42 reps
NFL Comparison: Brodrick Bunkley/Derek Wolfe

The Bengals were 29th against the run last year so needless to say they need some help in the middle of their D-Line. Phillips is a powerful player that can get on the field early. 


47. ARIZONA CARDINALS (8-8) 
Courtland Sutton-WR-SMU 
6-3/218/4.54/35.5 vert
NFL Comparison: Allen Robinson/Eric Decker

What a great situation this would be for Sutton. He can learn for a year with Larry Fitzgerald and then eventually become Arizona's #1 WR. 


48. LOS ANGELES CHARGERS (9-7)
Jesse Bates-FS-Wake Forest
6-1/200/4.5/35.5 vert
NFL Comparison: Reggie Nelson/HaHa Clinton Dix

If Bates develops into a viable starter at free safety, the Chargers could have the best secondary in the league very soon. 


49. INDIANAPOLIS COLTS
Sony Michel-RB-Georgia
5-11/214/4.54/22 reps
NFL Comparison: Lamar Miller/Spencer Ware 

The Colts double up on Georgia Bulldogs after taking Roqaun Smith in the first they get the feature RB they should of drafted last year (I had them taking Alvin Kamara). 


50. DALLAS COWBOYS 
Lorenzo Carter-EDGE-Georgia 
6-5/250/4.46/30 vert 
NFL Comparison: Danielle Hunter/John Abraham 

Carter has great length and athletic ability and would be an ideal fit at DE opposite DeMarcus Lawrence and has skill set in coverage to play strong side LB. 


51. DETROIT LIONS 
Ronald Jones-RB-USC
5-11/205/4.48
NFL Comparison: Jamaal Charles/Cadillac Williams

Jones is a big play RB with enough size to handle 15 touches a game. He would make former second round pick Ameer Abdullah expendable. 


52. BALTIMORE RAVENS 
James Washington-WR-OK ST
5-11/213/4.54/34.5 vert
NFL Comparison: Chris Chambers/Michael Crabtree

The Ravens learn from the failed Breshad Perriman experiment and draft a WR with much better production than athletic ability. Another solid and safe pick for Ozzie Newsome. PROJECTED TRADE WITH THE BUFFALO BILLS 


53. DENVER BRONCOS 
Dallas Goedert-TE-S. Dakota St
6-5/256/4.67/22 reps
NFL Comparison: Julius Thomas

The Broncos need pass catcher at both WR and TE. Goedert is good value here near the end of the second round. 


54. KANSAS CITY CHIEFS (10-6)
Donte Jackson-CB-LSU
5-10/178/4.32
NFL Comparison: Brandon Flowers

The Chiefs get a speedy corner to help replace Marcus Peters 


55. CAROLINA PANTHERS
Mark Andrews-TE-Oklahoma
6-5/256/4.67/17 reps
NFL Comparison: Coby Fleener

There is a pretty big drop off at TE after Andrews so if Carolina wants a young TE they will need to take one in the first or second round. 


56. BUFFALO BILLS 
VIA PRE DRAFT TRADE WITH THE 
LOS ANGELES RAMS 
Martinas Rankin-OT-Miss. St.
6-4/308/24 reps
NFL Comparison: Duane Brown

The Bills get some help on the O-Line after getting a QB and WR earlier. 


57. TENNESSEE TITANS
Ogbonnia Okoronkwo-EDGE-Oklahoma
6-2/253/4.77
NFL Comparison: Robert Mathis

The Titans get some needed pass rush help after taking a LB in the first round 


58. ATLANTA FALCONS (10-6)
Tyrell Crosby-RT/G-Oregon
6-5/309/17 reps
NFL Comparison: Jeff Allen

With both Jake Matthews and Andy Levitre both slated to hit free agency in 2019, the Falcons need to invest in a young versatile lineman to protect Matt Ryan. 


59. SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS (6-10) 
VIA PRE DRAFT TRADE WITH THE
NEW ORLEANS SAINTS
Uchenna Nwosu-EDGE-USC
6-2/251/4.65/20 reps
NFL Comparison: Markus Golden

San Fran stays in state to take a young pass rusher with good raw skills. 


60. PITTSBURGH STEELERS (13-3) 
Braden Smith-OL-Auburn
6-6/315/35 reps
NFL Comparison: Clint Boling

Pittsburgh looks to the SEC All American to help protect Big Ben. 


61. JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS (10-6)
Rasheem Green-LDE/5T-USC
6-5/275/4.73 
NFL Comparison: Malik Jackson

Green is extremely raw but in Jacksonville he will have time to develop. 


62. MINNESOTA VIKINGS (13-3)
Brian O'Neill-OT-Pittsburgh
6-7/297/4.8/22 reps
NFL Comparison: Jake Matthews

The Vikings may want to double up on the offensive line as they have many holes to fill. 


63. NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS (13-3)
Kerryon Johnson-RB-Auburn
5-11/213/4.56/40 vert
NFL Comparison: Tevin Coleman

The Patriots could always use another stud RB to add to their stable 


64. CLEVELAND BROWNS 
VIA PRE DRAFT TRADE WITH THE 
PHILADELPHIA EAGLES
Nick Chubb-RB-Georgia
5-11/227/4.52/29 reps
NFL Comparison: Willis McGahee

The Browns double up on the Chubb family. After getting Bradley at #4, they get his cousin Nick at #64. Nick can compete with Carlos Hyde for the lead back role in Cleveland.
