1. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - QB Jame is Winston, Florida State
- Commish receiving more boos! No surprise here, hopefully Winston can keep himself clean off the field. My Mock Draft Predictions (1/1). Let's see what Tennessee does now.
2. Tennessee Titans - QB Marcus Mariota, Oregon
- Mariota goes second, but the Titans don't trade out. We'll see if Mariota stays with the Titans or if they trade him away. It will be interesting! My Mock Draft Predictions (1.5/2)
3. Jacksonville Jaguars - DE Dante Fowler Jr., Florida
- Chris Berman just stole Bill Simmons' nickname for the Jags if they move the London. This has been the projected pick for the Jags for a while now. So far the draft has gone pretty chalk. My Mock Draft Predictions (1.5/3)
4. Oakland Raiders - WR Amari Cooper, Alabama
- Another chalk ESPN pick. Will someone finally do something unexpected? Good pick for the Raiders and gives Derek Carr a true #1 option. My Mock Draft Predictions (1.5/4)
5. Washington Football Team - OT Brandon Scherff, Iowa
- This is a little surprising since they need pass rush help and had their pick of them. This pick helps the offense as a hole. My Mock Draft Predictions (2.5/5)
6. New York Jets - DL Leonard Williams, USC
- If the previous pick was a little surprising this pick is VERY surprising. The strength of the Jets D is the D-line. They must be trading Wilkerson sometime soon. My Mock Draft Predictions (2.5/6)
7. Chicago Bears - WR Kevin White, West Virginia
- Good pick for 'Da Bears, I would be concerned that he is a one year wonder and this team is without a lot of talent on defense. My Mock Draft Predictions (2.5/7)
8. Atlanta Falcons - OLB Vic Beasley, Clemson
- The Falcons have not had a pass rush since John Abraham left. Beasley is fast and will get to the QB. My Mock Draft Predictions (2.5/8)
9. New York Giants - OT Ereck Flowers, Miami
- The Giants could have addressed needs with their D but choose to shore up their O-line and keep Eli Manning clean. My Mock Draft Predictions (2.5/9)
10. St. Louis Rams - RB Todd Gurley, Georgia
- This is certainly a surprise. The Rams must like WR depth in this draft. He's the best RB in the draft and will help the Rams offense but how will the line do? They should have gone in a few different directions here (WR, OL). My Mock Draft Predictions (2.5/10), down to 25% ouch.
11. Minnesota Vikings - CB Trae Waynes, Michigan St.
- Another chalk pick. This must be why the ESPN draft experts get paid the big bucks. My Mock Draft Predictions (2.5/11)
12. Cleveland Browns - NT Danny Shelton, Washington
- The Browns needed a NT and Shelton is the best in the draft. It seems like the Browns are done flubbing first round picks with this selection. My Mock Draft Predictions (2.5/12)
13. New Orleans Saints - OT Andrus Peat, Stanford
- Another surprise here. The Saints need interior OL help, pass rush help, and a WR but go with a Tackle. A bit of a head scratcher. My Mock Draft Predictions (2.5/13)
14. Miami Dolphins - WR Davante Parker, Louisville
- The Dolphins needed another passing option for Tannehill and get one here. This is another chalk pick. My Mock Draft Predictions (2.5/14)
15. San Francisco 49ers - Trade Alert - San Diego Chargers -RB Melvin Gordon, Wisconsin
- The Chargers give up a 4th and 5th to move up 2 spots in the draft to pick the RB Gordeon. This is definitely a need pick since the Chargers had all their RBs hurt last year.
16. Houston Texans - CB Kevin Johnson, Wake Forest
- Texans need help in the secondary since Johnathon Joseph is getting older. This pick makes sense, but a WR would have probably been a better pick. My Mock Draft Predictions (2.5/16)
17. San Francisco 49ers - DE Arik Armstead, Oregon
- The 49ers trade back a few spots and still go chalk. Every mock draft everywhere had the 49ers taking Armstead. I would've like a CB or WR for them. My Mock Draft Predictions (2.5/17)
18. Kansas City Chiefs - CB Marcus Peters, Washington
- This is a surprise. Peters has had a lot of off the field issues. They could use a CB but would have likely gotten one in the 2nd round. They must think the depth of WR will last until their next pick. MMDP (2.5/18)
19. Cleveland Browns - C/G Cameron Erving, Florida State
- Browns address their interior o-line with this pick. All their injuries last year must have factored into this pick but they have other needs they should have addressed. MMDP (2.5/19)
20. Philadelphia Eagles - WR Nelson Agholor, USC
- They needed a WR after Maclin left Agholor is a pretty good one. MMDP (2.5/20)
21. Cincinnati Bengals - OT Cedric Ogbuehi, Texas A&M
- A young tackle that the Bengals can develop for a year as both their tackles will be free agents next year. Good upside pick. MMDP (2.5/21)
22. Pittsburgh Steelers - OLB Bud Dupree, Kentucky
- The Steelers need secondary help, and what better way to help a secondary than to put pressure on the QB so your DBs aren't in coverage. Good pick and finally hit on another one. MMDP (3.5/22)
23. Detroit Lions - Trade Alert - Denver Broncos - DE Shane Ray, Missouri
- The Broncos trade up and make a surprise pick of Ray who is arguably the best pass rusher in the draft. Ray, Von Miller, and DeMarcus Ware make for a scary pass rush. Denver gives up Manny Ramierez a 5th this year and next year, in this 1st round swap. MMDP (3.5/23)
24. Arizona Cardinals - OT D.J. Humphries, Florida
- You can never have enough o-lineman. The Cardinals upgrade their RT spot with this pick. (MMDP 3.5/24)
25. Carolina Panthers - OLB Shaq Thompson, Washington
- The draft's first BIG surprise. He's a versatile player but I don't know where he fits. Is he a safety, a linebacker, a running back? I don't know. I think this is a very questionable pick. MMDP (3.5/25)
26. Baltimore Ravens - WR Breshad Perriman, UCF
- They needed a WR after Torrey Smith left. Perriman's hands need work but he is a burner. MMDP (3.5/26)
27. Dallas Cowboys - CB Byron Jones, UConn
- Very versatile player. Can play CB or S and was the combine's workout warrior. Fills a need for the Cowboys. MMDP (3.5/27)
28. Detroit Lions - G Laken Tomlinson, Duke
- They need interior o-line help and d-line help. I can't believe with Malcolm Brown still available they took a guy who many people thought would be a late 2nd round pick. MMDP (3.5/28)
29. Indianapolis Colts - WR Phillip Dorsett, Miami
- This guy was the smoothest looking WR that I watched at the combine. I expect great things from him, but this is a puzzling pick for the Colts. I would think a defensive player or o-lineman should've been the pick. MMDP (3.5/29)
30. Green Bay Packers - S Damarious Randall, Arizona State
- Another head scratcher since they took Ha-Ha Clinton-Dix last year, but the Packers know what works so I won't bash them. MMDP (3.5/30)
31. New Orleans Saints - ILB Stephone Anthony, Clemson
- The Saints go with a defensive player with their second 1st rounder, but not the pass rusher that they need. MMDP (3.5/31)
32. New England Patriots - DT Malcolm Brown, Texas
- I didn't think he would be here this late, but had the position right. The Patriots get their Wilfork replacement. MMDP (3.5/32)
