1. Tennessee Titans – Shedeur Sanders, QB, Colorado
With the Titans still searching for a franchise quarterback Sanders provides poise, accuracy, and leadership. His ability to process defenses and extend plays makes him a massive upgrade over Will Levis. However, his transition from Colorado’s system to the NFL will be key to his success. There is room for worry bringing in Sanders to a team with overall lackluster talent, and especially a underwhelming offensive line. Sanders is widely regarded as the top quarterback in the class though and the Titans will be thrilled to bring in the future of the franchise.

2. Cleveland Browns – Cameron Ward, QB, Miami
The Browns are in a black hole of a mess with DeShaun Watson, however they still have an extremely talented surrounding roster. If they could just get a star quarterback the Browns could go from zero to hero. Here Cleveland takes a shot at a high upside passer in Cam Ward. His arm talent and size fit today’s NFL. However he must refine his mechanics and decision making to avoid making mistakes that didn’t hurt him in college, that the pros will take advantage of.
3. New York Giants – Travis Hunter, Athlete, Colorado
Hunter is the ultimate playmaker, excelling at corner and wide receiver. I expect Hunter to primarily be a cornerback at the next level, but certainly will get snaps on offense. The Giants bolster their secondary with a dynamic talent who could become a lockdown CB1. Hunter may be the best prospect in the draft and the Giants will be thrilled to continue building their young core before finding a franchise quarterback.
4. New England Patriots – Abdul Carter, EDGE, Penn State
Carter brings elite athleticism and pass rushing prowess to a Patriots defense that lacks a dominant edge presence. His explosiveness and bend off the edge give New England a foundational pass rusher, though he’ll need to refine his technique against NFL linemen. Carter’s high upside off the edge will form an extremely promising defensive line with Christian Barmore and Keion White.
5. Jacksonville Jaguars – Mason Graham, DT, Michigan
A dominant interior force, Graham gives the Jaguars a disruptive presence on the inside of their defensive line. His run stuffing ability and pass rushing upside make him a high-floor, high-ceiling selection for Jacksonville’s defensive front. Adding an elite blue chip player to that front 7 in Duval to mesh with Josh Hines-Allen, Travon Walker, Maason Smith, and Arik Armstead would certainly make for a unit that would rival the likes of Sacksonville. The Jaguars take the safest prospect in the draft and one of the best IDL prospects of all time.

6. Las Vegas Raiders – Tetairoa McMillan, WR, Arizona
McMillan provides the Raiders with a physical, smooth route-runner who wins at the catch point. His combination of size, hands, and playmaking ability would make him an instant WR1 in Vegas. After missing out on the top quarterbacks available it would be a mistake to reach on a quarterback and throw him onto an abysmal offensive system. The Raiders focus on gathering elite young weapons before finding their quarterback of the future.
7. New York Jets – Will Campbell, OT, LSU
The Jets address the offensive line need with an elite left tackle prospect. The trenches are crucial and Campbell’s athleticism and power will help protect and solidify the offensive line for years to come. Whoever the Jets quarterback of the future will be, Campbell will be a pivotal acquisition and their signal callers best friend on the blind side.
8. Carolina Panthers – Malaki Starks, S, Georgia
Carolina gets a rangy, instinctive safety in Starks, who provides much needed stability on the back end. His versatility and playmaking skills will help a Panthers secondary that has struggled with consistency. Carolina has needs basically across the board so they take the player they deem as the biggest difference maker. Starks is an incredible prospect that truly can change a defense.
9. New Orleans Saints – James Pearce Jr., EDGE, Tennessee
The Saints add an explosive edge rusher to bolster a defense that badly needs more juice. Pearce’s quick first step and high motor will make an immediate impact and help build the Saints an identity. Before the season started James was viewed as the top prospect in this class, the Saints may be getting a massive steal here at 9. With Chase Young set to become a free agent this is a perfect addition to not only fill, but improve upon a hole on the roster.
10. Chicago Bears – Kelvin Banks Jr., OT, Texas
Banks is a powerful and technically refined tackle who will help protect Caleb Williams. He has the potential to anchor Chicago’s offensive line for the next decade. With an offensive minded head coach in Ben Johnson, securing the offensive line and allowing Caleb to be secure in the 1st year coach’s scheme will be pivotal. The Lions were blessed with one of the best offensive lines in the league, the Bears will be wanting to mimick that.
11. San Francisco 49ers – Will Johnson, CB, Michigan
San Francisco grabs an elite cornerback in Johnson, who has size, ball skills, and the ability to shut down opposing receivers. He immediately upgrades the 49ers secondary and will prove to be a day 1 ready boundary corner. This blue chip prospect fills a much needed hole with Charvarius Ward set to leave in free agency. The 49ers still have one of the strongest rosters in the league and so long as they stay healthy, having a star young corner will be a pivotal addition for The Bay.

12. Dallas Cowboys – Ashton Jeanty, RB, Boise State
The Cowboys run game was extremely lackluster last year. Rico Dowdle had some strong games, but bringing in a true superstar runningback would unleash the Cowboys offense. Jeanty is a fast and physical runner with great receiving ability, making him a great fit for any team. A true workhorse and game changer, adding electric weapons like Jeanty is what will send Dallas back to the playoffs.
13. Miami Dolphins – Jahdae Barron, DB, Texas
With Jalen Ramsey aging and Jevon Holland set to hit free agency, the Dolphins wisely address their secondary by selecting Barron. He’s a versatile defensive back with excellent instincts, capable of playing anywhere in the secondary from deep safety to corner. Miami’s defense thrives on speed and aggressive play, and Barron fits perfectly into their system providing some much needed security in pass coverage.
14. Indianapolis Colts – Tyler Warren, TE, Penn State
Anthony Richardson gets a big body target in Warren. He’s a reliable pass catching tight end with strong blocking ability. Richardson is in a major prove it season and getting him an elite talent as a safety valve will be huge for Richardson’s development in his 3rd season.
15. Atlanta Falcons – Nic Scourton, EDGE, Texas A&M
The Falcons continue to build their pass rush with Scourton, a high-motor edge rusher with the tools to develop into a dominant player. Pass rush has been a much needed problem to address for Atlanta, and learning from the likes of Matthew Judon would be fantastic for developing a young edge rusher. The Falcons should bring in a talented rookie Judon can mentor while they still have him.
16. Arizona Cardinals – Mykel Williams, EDGE, Georgia
Arizona lands a disruptive edge rusher in Williams. The Cardinals are in dire need of star talent on their defensive line. The Cardinals showed great progression as an overall team last season, but their defense is holding them back. If they can take advantage of Mykel’s high upside he’d help establish an identity for their defense.
17. Cincinnati Bengals – Luther Burden III, WR, Missouri
With Tee Higgins expected to leave in free agency, the Bengals need to find another weapon to pair with Ja’Marr Chase. Burden is an explosive playmaker with elite route running and YAC ability. His quickness and versatility make him a great fit in Cincinnati’s offense, giving Joe Burrow another dangerous target while ensuring the Bengals passing attack remains one of the league’s best.
18. Seattle Seahawks – Josh Simmons, OT, Ohio State
Seattle adds a huge offensive tackle in Simmons to solidify their offensive line. The Seahawks have star players decorated all over their offense, but keeping Geno Smith and Kenneth Walker upright is what will make or break this team. Simmons is a strong player and blue chip prospect to improve their line day 1.
19. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Jalon Walker, LB, Georgia
With Lavonte David not only aging but possibly of the move, Tampa Bay secures an athletic linebacker who excels in coverage and run defense. Walker will be a leader on their defense and look to carry on David’s legacy in Tampa. The Buccaneers offense is great, but adding to their front 7 is what could get the Buccaneers over the hump.
20. Denver Broncos – Matthew Golden, WR, Texas
Simply put, Denver needs more weapons on offense. Bo Nix somehow led the Broncos to the playoffs with an extremely underwhelming surrounding team. Truly the Broncos could really use not only receiver, but a running back and tight end as well. Bringing in a great athlete with a massive frame in Matthew Golden would be pivotal for Nix long term. Denver brings in this high upside weapon hoping he can catch fire like many of the rookie receivers did last season.

21. Pittsburgh Steelers – Shavon Revel, CB, East Carolina
Pittsburgh adds a long, athletic corner in Revel who fits their physical defensive identity. His upside is enormous, but injury history could hold him back. If Shavon could stay healthy though, then the Steelers would be getting a huge steal in the draft and one of the most athletic corners in the league. Having Revel and Joey Porter outside with Beanie Bishop in the slot makes for one of the most talented young corner groups in the league.
22. Los Angeles Chargers – Walter Nolen, DT, Ole Miss
The Chargers get a massively disruptive defensive tackle to throw in the middle of Joey Bosa and Khalil Mack. Nolen’s ability to collapse the pocket makes him a dream addition for the Chargers. They have one of the best edge rushing duos in the league, but lackluster talent inside hold them back. Any opposing offense looking at this trio up front will have shivers run down their spines.
23. Green Bay Packers – Azareye’h Thomas, CB, Florida State
The Packers were already in need of a cornerback before the looming possibility of Jaire Alexander leaving in free agency, but now that situation is even more pressing. Azareye’h Thomas brings a blend of size, physicality, and ball skills that would allow him to step in as a starter right away. With the NFC North’s receiver talent, it’s critical that Green Bay secures a reliable corner to help solidify their secondary and maintain a strong defense moving forward. Thomas can provide the coverage ability and playmaking that the Packers desperately need at corner.
24. Minnesota Vikings – Benjamin Morrison, CB, Notre Dame
The Vikings’ secondary has been a weakness for several years, and they desperately need a true number 1 corner. Morrison brings excellent ball skills, fluid movement, and high football IQ to their underwhelming secondary. Morrison is a perfect fit for Brian Flores’ aggressive defensive scheme and high pressure play calling. With the NFC North boasting some of the league’s top receivers, adding a lockdown corner like Morrison is essential for the Vikings to stay competitive.
25. Houston Texans – Tyler Booker, IOL, Alabama
The Texans have done an outstanding job rebuilding their offense, but adding more protection for C.J. Stroud remains a priority. Booker is a mauling interior lineman with excellent power in the run game and refined pass blocking fundamentals. Pairing him next to Laremy Tunsil on the left side would make for one of the most physical tackle/guard duos in the league helping the Texans offense thrive.

26. Los Angeles Rams – Jihaad Campbell, LB, Alabama
With Ernest Jones being traded last season, the Rams need to add more talent and playmaking ability at the position. Campbell is an athletic, rangy linebacker who can drop into coverage, blitz effectively, and provide sideline-to-sideline pursuit. His versatility fits well in a Rams defense that values hybrid defenders, making him an ideal addition to a front seven looking for long-term impact players. The Rams are missing a leader in the middle of their defense and Campbell provides that.
27. Baltimore Ravens – Josh Conerly Jr., OT, Oregon
The Ravens prioritize protecting Lamar Jackson, and with Ronnie Stanley set to become a free agent, they need a long-term solution at tackle. Conerly is a highly athletic lineman with excellent footwork and balance in pass protection. His ability to play either tackle spot gives Baltimore flexibility, and his development in a run-heavy system at Oregon makes him a great fit for the Ravens’ offensive identity.
28. Detroit Lions – Mike Green, EDGE, Marshall
The Lions’ defense has improved, but they still need a consistent pass rush beyond Aidan Hutchinson. Green is a strong prospect with elite burst and bend around the edge. Detroit thrives on high motor players who bring intensity, and Green fits that mold perfectly. Pairing him with Hutchinson would give the Lions a formidable pass rushing duo that can disrupt opposing quarterbacks for years to come.
29. Washington Commanders – Emeka Egbuka, WR, Ohio State
With Terry McLaurin aging and a clear lack of talent behind him, the Commanders add another top tier receiver in Egbuka. He is an elite route runner with excellent hands and can create separation at all levels of the field. With the future of their franchise in place, having a reliable weapon like Egbuka will be crucial in Jayden Daniels’ and the rest of Washington’s offensive development.
https://twitter.com/Elite_Drafters/status/1888059075704827983
30. Buffalo Bills – Nick Emmanwori, S, South Carolina
With Micah Hyde retiring, the Bills need an infusion of youth at safety to pair with Cole Bishop. Emmanwori is a versatile, physical defender who excels in both run support and coverage. He fits well in Buffalo’s scheme where safeties are heavily relied on to be the playmakers. His ability to contribute early will be crucial for bringing the Bills defensive stability. A star talent like Nick in the back of Buffalo’s secondary is a game changer.
31. Kansas City Chiefs – Derrick Harmon, DT, Oregon
The Chiefs continue investing in their defensive line by adding Harmon, a disruptive interior force who can complement Chris Jones while learning every thing he can from the All-Pro. Harmon’s ability to collapse the pocket and stop the run will be valuable as Kansas City looks to build up their defensive line anticipating Jones’ retirement. Harmon provides a potential successor while immediately bolstering the rotation of the Chiefs who are eager to get back to the Championship.
32. Philadelphia Eagles – Jack Sawyer, EDGE, Ohio State
The Eagles philosophy has been to prioritize building through the trenches and Sawyer adds to their deep pass rushing rotation. With Josh Sweat and Milton Williams potentially leaving in free agency, adding an explosive edge rusher like Sawyer ensures Philadelphia remains dominant up front. Sawyer is a safe prospect and fantastic leader with a winning culture that the Super Bowl Champions wish to continue.
