Pick	Team	Player	2024 Stats	Commentary
1	Jacksonville Jaguars	WR Travis Hunter, Colorado – 6’1, 185 lbs	69 rec, 856 yards, 9 TD	Once again, the Jacksonville Jaguars are losing games, lacking direction and seemingly giving up on the season. I am not sure what the issue is at this point in time. Trevor Lawrence may not be that generational talent everyone thought he would be, but giving him more help could not hurt. Travis Hunter is the likely Heisman Trophy winner, and one of the more talented college football players this century. Whether he plays slot receiver, cornerback, or some of both, he could give this fledgling franchise a shot in the arm.
2	New York Giants	QB Shedeur Sanders, Colorado – 6’2, 215 lbs	250-343, 2882 yards, 24 TD, 6 INT	This needed to happen. The Giants needed to lose and lose big in order to fix that quarterback position. They are now in position to draft the signal caller of their choosing. Shedeur Sanders just continues to impress. He has his Colorado offense humming and has shown great accuracy, toughness and leadership. Perhaps just as important, the bright lights of New York should not be too much for him. Call him cocky if you want, but Sanders is ready to lead.
3	Tennessee Titans	OLB Abdul Carter, Penn State – 6’3, 259 lbs	40 tackles, 8 sacks	Will Levis is not a long term option at quarterback, but I think Tennessee will look to build its roster a bit before taking another stab at that position in the draft. The Titans only have 18 sacks on the season, making pass rush an obvious need. I have teased Abdul Carter moving into my top five for months, and here he is. Carter continues to abuse Big 10 quarterbacks, and has posted back to back two sack games. He is big, strong and has taken over the Micah Parsons role for the Nittany Lions with great success.
4	Cleveland Browns	QB Cam Ward, Miami – 6’2, 223 lbs	241-361, 3494 yards, 32 TD, 6 INT	Despite a waste of a season, I still think Cleveland has the roster and coaching staff to push for the playoffs in 2025. The key, of course, is the quarterback. It is time to admit the Deshaun Watson mistake and move on, even with the loss of draft capital and the wasted financial situation. Through hard work and an incredible three school journey, Cam Ward has developed from a zero star recruit to top ten pick. He is a leader, and Cleveland will like that he is 23 years old and has been through it all. They hope he can be the 2025 version of Jayden Daniels, and do what Daniels has done for Washington.
5	Las Vegas Raiders	CB Will Johnson, Michigan – 6’2, 202 lbs	14 tackles, 2 INT	The Raiders need a quarterback, but after the top two, I have a hard time seeing any franchise passing up an elite talent to reach for the next tier. Las Vegas needs help everywhere, like always, and should just go with the best player available in this scenario. Will Johnson is a physical specimen at cornerback, and a real playmaker. He has 9 career interceptions, and has brought three of them back to the house. Johnson has also shown scouts grit and love for the game, toughing out some injuries on a mediocre tam instead of shutting it down like other top ten prospects may have done.
6	New England Patriots	WR Tetairoa McMillan, Arizona – 6’5, 212 lbs	63 rec, 1066 yards, 6 TD	It is very early, but Drake Maye definitely looks the part of a starting quarterback. The next step for New England would be to surround him with offensive weapons and competent pass blockers. Either receiver or offensive tackle would be the way to go here, but I give the edge to Tetairoa McMillan here. The Patriots have the most vanilla group of skill position players in the NFL, and McMillan would really help out Maye, as well as making the New England offense a little more pretty to look at. Arizona has had a miserable season, but that is not the fault of McMillan, who looks like a young Mike Evans.
7	New Orleans Saints	DT Mason Graham, Michigan – 6’3, 320 lbs	37 tackles, 3.5 sacks	Age and a long term trip to salary cap hell has decimated this franchise. New Orleans simply needs to draft the best player available here in hopes of replenishing some talent. Mason Graham would be a perfect fit for an aging defensive line. He is big, strong, athletic, can hold up against the run and rush the passer. He is a complete defensive lineman and would be an asset in any defensive scheme.
8	New York Jets	QB Quinn Ewers, Texas – 6’2, 210 lbs	149-215, 1722 yards, 19 TD, 6 INT	For seemingly every year since the Joe Namath days, the Jets need to find a long term option at quarterback. It has been a mess of a season for Quinn Ewers, but I still really like his long term potential. He has some Brett Favre to his game, a confident gun slinger who guys should love to go to war with. If Aaron Rodgers returns for one more year, he could sit and develop, which would be good for his long term outlook.
9	Carolina Panthers	OLB James Pearce Jr., Tennessee – 6’5, 243 lbs	27 tackles, 5.5 sacks	Carolina has gone from the first pick to the ninth with two straight wins, seemingly taking them out of the quarterback market. Thankfully there are quite a few talented prospects available. The Panthers need long term pass rushers after trading Brian Burns. After a slow start to the season, James Pearce Jr. has picked things up, getting to the quarterback at least once in every one of Tennessee’s last five games.
10	Miami Dolphins	OT Will Campbell, LSU – 6’6, 320 lbs	N/A	It has been a disappointing year for the Dolphins, but the silver lining for this mock is they still get their pick of any offensive lineman in this class. I am a big Will Campbell fan. He may wind up at guard long term thanks to less than ideal measurables, but he would be a perfect fit for Miami pretty much anywhere along its line.
11	Dallas Cowboys	OT Kelvin Banks Jr., Texas – 6’4, 320 lbs	N/A	Yeah, Ashton Jeanty is a perfect fit for the Cowboys, but as Dallas continues to lose and move up the board, a running back may not be the best value with their first round pick. There are whispers that Zack Martin may hang it up soon, and Terence Steele is not irreplaceable at right tackle. Kelvin Banks Jr. has quite a bit of experience blocking for a pro style offense, and has the versatility to play anywhere along the offensive line. Dallas could take him here, target a running back in the second round, and get back to becoming a more balanced offense.
12	Indianapolis Colts	CB Benjamin Morrison, Notre Dame – 6’0, 190 lbs	20 tackles	The Colts are in danger of wasting a talented roster if they cannot get the quarterback situation figured out. Other than that, the secondary is probably the second biggest question mark at the moment. Benjamin Morrison has likely played his last down for Notre Dame, as the injured corner will turn his attention towards draft preparation. He may not have the size of Will Johnson, but is a tremendous athlete and has a nose for the ball, as evidenced by his 9 career interceptions.
13	Cincinnati Bengals	DE Mykel Williams, Georgia – 6’5, 265 lbs	10 tackles, 2 sacks	For a team with a losing record, Cincinnati has a deep, solid roster. The Bengals need a pass rusher to take some of the pressure off of Trey Hendrickson. Mykel Williams has as much talent as any player in this class, but has been held in check as a junior. Still, he is a former top recruit with 9 sacks during his first two collegiate seasons. Once the pre-draft process gets underway, he is a player that could shoot up all the way to the top, similar to Travon Walker a few years ago.
14	Tampa Bay Buccaneers	WR Luther Burden III, Missouri – 5’11, 208 lbs	45 rec, 505 yards, 4 TD	Injuries and tough schedule luck has destroyed what looked like a promising season for the Buccaneers. It may be tough for Tampa Bay to keep the aging, expensive and injury prone receiver duo of Mike Evans and Chris Godwin together. Luther Burden III has had a successful season, considering how much Missouri’s passing game has struggled at times. He is a consistent chain mover and solid route runner.
15	Seattle Seahawks	DE Nic Scourton, Texas A&M – 6’4, 285 lbs	130-188, 1389 yards, 14 TD, 6 INT	The Seahawks have struggled to develop pass rushers, and they are one of the worst teams in getting after the quarterback as a result. Nic Scourton has the size to play end in a 3-4 defense, but is still agile enough to rush the passer. The talented Aggie has 17 career sacks.
16	Los Angeles Rams	OT Aireontae Ersery, Minnesota – 6’6, 330 lbs	N/A	Despite going seven years without a first round pick, the Rams have drafted well enough to plug quite a few holes on their roster. Offensive line remains a need area, however. Aireontae Ersery does not have the name recognition of some of the other offensive linemen in this class, but continues to rise up the board as a safe, ready to contribute option for teams needing a young blindside protector.
17	Chicago Bears	HB Ashton Jeanty, Boise State – 5’9, 215 lbs	224 carries, 1734 yards, 23 TD	D’Andre Swift has been one of the least efficient high volume running backs in the NFL, and is one of the reasons the Bears offense has struggled so badly. Ashton Jeanty is having a historic season. He is a true three down threat. The only worry teams may have is the massive workload Boise State is placing on him. Still, the Bears could draft him and have their top quarterback, running back and receiver all on rookie deals, allowing them to load up on free agent signings.
18	San Francisco 49ers	DT Deone Walker, Kentucky – 6’6, 345 lbs	32 tackles, 1.5 sacks	Injuries continue to decimate the 49ers, which has exposed an alarming lack of young depth on the roster. San Francisco should just draft the best player available. Despite a down season for Kentucky football, Deone Walker continues to produce. He has 10 career sacks, an astonishing number for a man his size, showing he is not just a run stuffing nose tackle.
19	Denver Broncos	TE Colston Loveland, Michigan – 6’5, 245 lbs	53 rec, 560 yard, 4 TD	Things are quickly looking up in Denver. The defense has been very solid, and Bo Mix has made progress seemingly weekly. Imagine if he had a full compliment of pass catchers at his disposal. The Michigan passing game has been a disaster, but Colston Loveland has been slump-proof. He is an athletic target hog who has been the entire Michigan offense at times.
20	Houston Texans	DT Walter Nolen, Ole Miss – 6’3, 305 lbs	31 tackles, 3 sacks	Houston is the best of the worst that is the AFC South, but this roster still has quite a bit to work on. Most notably, additional defensive line help. Walter Nolen was the top recruit in the nation a few seasons ago, and has slowly developed into a solid interior pass rusher. He helped Ole Miss shut down the Georgia offense last week, and should find his way to a playoff team in the late first round.
21	Atlanta Falcons	OLB Jalon Walker, Georgia – 6’2, 245 lbs	9 tackles, 2 sacks	No team in the NFL has fewer sacks than the Atlanta Falcons. Matthew Judon was brought in, but that obviously has not been enough. Jalon Walker may have punched his first round ticket with a dominating three sack performance against then #1 ranked Texas. He has solid pass rushing ability, and linebacker-like awareness as a run defender.
22	Arizona Cardinals	DT Kenneth Grant, Michigan – 6’3, 339 lbs	25 tackles, 2 sacks	Thanks to a well rounded offense, Arizona is a real threat to win its division. The Cardinals could use help on every level of the defense, however. Kenneth Grant has the beef to hold down nose tackle in a 3-4 defense, but also offers some sneaky pass rushing ability.
23	Los Angeles Chargers	WR Emeka Egbuka, Ohio State – 6’1, 205 lbs	47 rec, 587 yards, 8 TD	The Chargers went into the 2024 off-season looking to rebuild the passing game. Ladd McConkey is a nice start, and Emeka Egbuka would be a great counterpart. Coach Jim Harbaugh saw his amazing 2022 season up close and in person. Egbuka has not been able to duplicate those numbers without CJ Stroud, but has developed into a solid route running touchdown machine, and would be a reliable target for Justin Herbert.
24	Green Bay Packers	CB Denzel Burke, Ohio State – 6’1, 193 lbs	30 tackles, 2 INT	The Packers may have the deepest roster in the NFL. It is tough to find obvious needs. Eric Stokes is an upcoming free agent that will most likely not be resigned, which could open up a spot in the secondary. Senior Denzel Burke has slowly worked his way into the first round, and looks like a nice bet to carve out a long career in the NFL.
25	Washington Commanders	DE JT Tuimoloau, Ohio State – 6’5, 269 lbs	30 tackles, 5 sacks	Washington looks an awful lot like the 2023 Houston Texans. Drafting a quarterback second overall and watching him elevate the entire team. The Commanders traded for Marshon Lattimore, further expediting the rebuild. Washington recently traded former first round picks Chase Young and Montez Sweat, and have yet to fill either hole. JT Tuimoloau never quite developed into a top notch pass rusher, but he is a very solid all around end who can play all three downs.
26	Baltimore Ravens	OG Tyler Booker, Alabama – 6’5, 325 lbs	N/A	Baltimore remains a Super Bowl threat, but losses to the Raiders and Browns are a real stain on the resume. This is always a team that needs to draft very well, since it does not often use free agency to plug holes. Ronnie Stanley is an upcoming free agent, and the interior of the line has been a weakness as well. Tyler Booker is most likely a guard prospect only, but he is a real road grader that could help the Ravens get another year or two out of the ageless Derrick Henry.
27	Pittsburgh Steelers	WR Tre Harris, Ole Miss – 6’3, 210 lbs	59 rec, 987 yards, 6 TD	The Steelers traded for Mike Williams to take some pressure off of George Pickens, but he has entered the “rental” portion of his career. We do not often see five year college receivers picked in the first round, but Tre Harris is a big bodied type with deceptive quickness, and looks an awful lot like Williams. Pittsburgh has drafted several day two types, but none have panned out. Harris could be a fantastic fit.
28	Minnesota Vikings	DT Tyleik Williams, Ohio State – 6’3, 327 lbs	28 tackles, 2 INT	Cornerback is the biggest need for the Vikings, but I would worry about selecting Shavon Revel Jr. in the first round, since he will be coming off of a serious injury. Instead, Minnesota pivots to the defensive line. They currently lack optimal personnel for a new 3-4 defense. Tyleik Williams is one of the most athletic defensive tackles in this class. Quick and strong, he could play any position along the line.
29	Philadelphia Eagles	DE Jack Sawyer, Ohio State – 6’5, 260 lbs	31 tackles, 3 sacks	Despite a less than fantastic season, Philadelphia is still sitting at 7-2 and has one of the deeper and more balanced rosters in the NFL. The Eagles love to have a deep rotation of pass rushers, and Jack Sawyer could be an ideal replacement for Brandon Graham. Sawyer is not a pass rushing terror, but is strong, can hold up against the run and can still get after the quarterback on occasion.
30	Buffalo Bills	SS Malaki Starks, Georgia – 6’1, 205 lbs	49 tackles, 1 INT	The Bills are one of the deeper teams in the NFL, but they miss their long time safety duo of Jordan Poyer and Micah Hyde. Malaki Starks and the Georgia Bulldogs have not been as dominant as seasons past, but Starks is one of the true difference making safeties in this class. He has 6 career interceptions.
31	Detroit Lions	DE Princely Umanmielen, Ole Miss – 6’4, 255 lbs	24 tackles, 9.6 sacks	A season ending injury to their best defensive player. Five interceptions thrown by their starting quarterback. Somehow Detroit just continues to win. This is a team built to contend now, so bringing in an experienced pass rusher could be a good move. All Princely Umanmielen has done during his five year college journey is rack up 24.5 sacks and counting, including 2 against Georgia.
32	Kansas City Chiefs	OT Jonah Savaiinaea, Arizona – 6’5, 336 lbs	N/A	By several metrics, the Chiefs are the “worst” 9-0 team of all time. Somehow, the football Gods are smilling on them, when the referees are not. Still though, this is a complete roster with a particularly effective defense. Andy Reid loves to draft offensive and defensive lineman early on. Jonah Savaiinaea can provide depth at every position on the line, and take over where needed when free agency takes a player or two.
