Two Round 2024 NFL Mock (Post Opening Round of Free Agency)

Jayden Daniels - Fantasy Football Rankings, College FB, QB, NFL Draft Sleepers

With my top-50 player rankings now posted and the Combine behind us, we are at a point where another mock draft makes sense. Free agency is now open, with the biggest free agents already making deals. With that in mind, this mock will take into consideration the moves made early on the first day of the tampering period. Our mock will be impacted by the following moves….

Free Agent Moves Impacting Mock: As of this mock, Baker Mayfield is officially returning to Tampa Bay and Russell Wilson is headed to Pittsburgh. This mock has also been updated to reflect Kirk Cousins to Atlanta, Gabe Davis to Jacksonville, Bryce Huff to Philly, Brian Burns to the Giants, and all other free agency moves through the morning of March 14.

Post Mock Moves: Please note this mock was submitted prior to the trade of Justin Fields to the Steelers, Morgan Moses to the Jets, and Tyron Smith's signing. Gang Green still needs help at tackle, but could consider Brock Bowers at #10 now. Meanwhile, the Raiders may consider Michael Penix Jr. now that Justin Fields is no longer an option.

Be sure to check all of our fantasy football rankings for 2024:

 

Round 1

1. *Chicago Bears- Caleb Williams, QB, USC

Nothing changes here. Caleb Williams is a significantly better prospect than Justin Fields was at Ohio State. He’s much better than Fields has been in the pros, too. If you want proof of that, just look at the trade market for Fields.

Chicago won’t just take Williams to “reset the clock” on their quarterback contract. The NFL has spoken and shown that Fields isn't considered an elite option anymore. Williams is an elite prospect, though. He can throw with velocity from multiple angles, make plays from nothing, and get chunk yards with both his arm and legs.

2. Washington Commanders- Jayden Daniels, QB, LSU

Daniels is a repeat pick because it's what seems most likely to happen. I would still take Drake Maye if I were Washington, but Adam Peters likely leans toward a more finished product like Daniels after the Trey Lance pick didn't work. The Heisman winner can help win games early with his legs and arm, even if I have questions about his durability and velocity on tight- window throws.

3. New England Patriots- Drake Maye, QB, North Carolina

Rumors are the Patriots will pass on this quarterback class, but they've made zero roster moves to suggest that's their plan. They didn't add younger veterans like Sam Howell or Justin Fields, but instead brought in a bridge veteran in Jacoby Brissett. The presence of Brissett points toward New England taking Maye and grooming him behind the veteran until midseason.

4. Arizona Cardinals– Marvin Harrison Jr., WR, Ohio State

The Cardinals are going to take Marvin Harrison Jr. unless they get blown away by a trade offer. Here, they were almost blown away by offers from the Broncos and Vikings... but not enough to forfeit the best player in this class who happens to fill their biggest need. Harrison gives Kyler Murray a surefire superstar and he shows flashes of Cardinals legend Larry Fitzgerald.

5. *TRADE: Minnesota Vikings- J.J. McCarthy, QB, Michigan

The Chargers are clear trade back candidates, especially if they are wanting a mauling offensive lineman like Taliese Fuaga. So, they look to move back. The two biggest offers come from Minnesota and Denver, but Jim Harbaugh cannot bring himself to send his college quarterback to a division rival. So, they take a little less from Minnesota than Denver offered and move back.

From a value perspective, the Vikings are giving up too much in this scenario. However, the buzz surrounding McCarthy is hot and odds favor him going amongst the first 10 picks and Minnesota's deal to add Houston's first round pick signals a bigger plan to move up for a quarterback. The Giants and Broncos both make hard pushes for this pick, which is why Minnesota pays a premium.

Trade Details...

Minnesota Receives: Pick No. 5

Los Angeles Receives: Pick No. 11 and No. 23 overall

6. New York Giants- Malik Nabers, WR, LSU

The Giants are prime candidates to trade up for a quarterback, but they get outbid in this scenario. Their next best option is to grab a weapon that Daniel Jones has never had. Nabers has elite playmaking skills. He is a killer deep threat but he can also take a slant the distance. There is some Antonio Brown to his game.

7. Tennessee Titans- Joe Alt, OT, Notre Dame

At the Combine, Tennessee’s leadership indicated they would draft a receiver over a tackle if all things were equal. Things aren't equal after the signing of Calvin Ridley. With Ridley on board, the Titans have to take the top offensive lineman in this class. Alt will be 21 this entire season and is the most well-rounded blocker in the class. He will improve one of the worst lines in the league.

8. Atlanta Falcons- Rome Odunze, WR, Washington

With Kirk Cousins signed and the offensive line solidified, the Falcons consider defensive line with this pick. Rome Odunze is just too good of a value to pass on, though. He's a top-five talent in this class and would be the top receiver in a lot of drafts. Adding him to Drake London, Kyle Pitts, and Bijan Robinson would arguably give Cousins more elite weapons than he had in Minnesota.

9. Chicago Bears – Jared Verse, DE, Florida State

The Bears should consider Brock Bowers with this pick. The contracts they've given to Cole Kmet and Gerald Everett suggest they won't. The team's trade for Keenan Allen also suggests pass catcher is no longer a top priority, indicating they will look at defense here. Verse is the strongest edge rusher in this class, wrecking offensive lines from inside and out. He gives Chicago two elite pass-rushers.

10. New York Jets- Troy Fautanu, OT, Washington

The Jets desperately need pass blockers who can keep Aaron Rodgers upright this season. Fautanu is one of the most polished blockers in this class. He has smooth feet, a good understanding of assignments and blitz pickups, and clean tape. Given the Jets' needs, he is a better fit than the run-blocking maulers and raw upside tackles who are left on the board here.

11. *TRADE BACK: Los Angeles Chargers– Taliese Fuaga, OT, Oregon State

In my initial mock, I warned that Jim Harbaugh and Greg Roman could fall in love with Fuaga's film, so much so that they could reach for him at pick No. 5 if they couldn't find a trade partner to move back. In this scenario, they do move back, nabbing a wide-bodied run maven and additional picks. Fuaga plants people on their backs, which is something Harbaugh will love.

12. Denver Broncos– Bo Nix, QB, Oregon

The Broncos must add a starting-caliber quarterback this offseason. In terms of what kind of quarterback that is, Sean Payton seems like the type who will convince himself he can recreate Drew Brees. I have a second-round grade on Nix, while Brees was my fifth-rated prospect in the 2001 class. In other words, I don't think Nix is good value here or the next coming of Brees... but Payton might.

13. Las Vegas Raiders- Dallas Turner, DE, Alabama

Michael Penix Jr. is a distinct possibility for the Raiders. Las Vegas's current regime may not value Penix Jr. like the silver and black leadership used to, though. If that's the case, they will look at cornerback or edge. Turner is a much better talent than last year's first round pick Tyree Wilson. The value is too good, too.

14. New Orleans Saints- Brock Bowers, TE, Georgia

The Saints need help on the offensive line, but Derek Carr could also use more weapons if he is to reach his full (mediocre) potential. Taysom Hill is aging and Juwan Johnson is on a short-term deal. Brock Bowers is a better tight end than either in all facets of the game. This feels like a very New Orleans move.

15. Indianapolis Colts- Quinyon Mitchell, CB, Toledo

The Colts have a need at corner and were the second-heaviest zone defense in the NFL last year. Mitchell has had the best pre-draft process of any corner and he played plenty of off coverage at Toledo. He is the perfect fit for Indy's defense.

16. Seattle Seahawks- Michael Penix Jr., QB, Washington

Seattle just added Sam Howell to compete with Geno Smith at quarterback. Howell and Smith combined cannot match Michael Penix Jr.'s ability to sell jerseys in Seattle, though. Neither comes close to Penix's physical ceiling, either.

Penix Jr. has a huge arm, throwing with velocity and power. He is also deceptively mobile and a proven winner. His medicals may concern some people, but he's two years removed from his last ACL tear. Seattle could save $20 million in 2025 cap space if they allowed Penix to sit a year behind Smith or Howell, then release Smith and use Howell as a quality backup.

17. Jacksonville Jaguars- Terrion Arnold, CB, Alabama

Trent Baalke has a long history of investing draft picks on the defensive side of the ball. Laiatu Latu is a strong consideration for this pick, but the Jags need another starting corner more than they do a pass-rusher. Arnold's 40-time at the Combine was disappointing, but his silky hips and fluid movement skills keep him glued to receivers.

18. Cincinnati Bengals- Olumuyiwa Fashanu, OT, Penn State

The Bengals lucked out in this scenario, nabbing the highest upside pass-blocker in the class. After Fashanu tested poorly at the Combine and his hands measured surprisingly small, the needle is pointing down on him. The tape shows plenty of upside, though. He fills the Bengals' need for another quality pass-blocking tackle.

19. Los Angeles Rams- Cooper DeJean, CB, Iowa

The Rams recently ran a "STAR" package with Jalen Ramsey, allowing him to move all over the formation and play multiple roles depending on the opponent. DeJean is a versatile athlete who can do the same. He can lock down opposing receivers or play safety and in the box.

20. Pittsburgh Steelers- Jackson Powers-Johnson, C, Oregon

Powers-Johnson has a big upper body that catches interior rushers in a net and is a strong anchor in run support. The Steelers have struggled at the pivot for some time. The Oregon alum would fill that need, allowing the run-heavy attack of Arthur Smith to reach whatever potential it has. Pittsburgh seems set on returning to smashmouth football and this move helps them get there.

21. Miami Dolphins- Tyler Guyton, OT, Oklahoma

Terron Armstead could retire anytime, and he’s always injured. Considering Tua Tagovailoa’s own injury history, protecting him must be a priority. Guyton has arguably the highest upside of any tackle in this class. He is incredibly agile for his size, plays with a hot motor, and loves football. He's raw, but there's a reason multiple execs named him the most exciting prospect at the Senior Bowl.

22. Philadelphia Eagles- Xavier Worthy, WR, Texas

Cornerback or interior offensive line are clear needs for the Eagles after free agency, but this is a squad making an all-in move. There's nothing else you can call signing Saquon Barkley. Thus, this team could be pushing all their chips into the middle this year. If they are doing that, taking a gamble on Worthy could make sense... even if this is a dozen spots higher than I have him ranked.

The Eagles could salivate over the idea of Worthy taking safeties out of the box while A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith roam underneath. Imagine how defenses will account for Worthy's deep speed, Brown and Smith's ball skills, plus the rushing ability of Jalen Hurts and the receiving skills of Saquon Barkley. That combination could be next to impossible to stop.

23. *TRADE: San Francisco 49ers- Brian Thomas Jr., WR, LSU

The 49ers met with Brian Thomas Jr. at the Combine, which is noteworthy considering he should be drafted well before they are on the clock. For all their weapons, the 49ers lack a deep threat who can do what Thomas can. They also have to be realistic about how much new deals for Brandon Aiyuk and Brock Purdy might cost, meaning the age/injuries/cost of George Kittle and Deebo Samuel could soon make them expendable.

It's also worth noting the rumors surrounding both Deebo and Aiyuk right now. While the Ravens have refuted asking about Deebo's availability, there is buzz from Jaguars reporters that the team is "mutually" interested in Aiyuk. With the 49ers meeting with several highly regarded receiver prospects at the Combine and multiple rumors swirling around their pass- catchers, a need at the position could be growing.

Trade Details...

San Francisco Receives: Pick No. 23

Los Angeles Receives: Picks No. 31, No. 94, and San Francisco's 2025 third round pick

24. Dallas Cowboys- Amarius Mims, OT, Georgia

Tyron Smith is expected to leave Dallas this offseason, and he was their highest-graded pass-blocker in 2023. While Tyler Smith could bump outside and fill one tackle need, the team currently has a need at both tackle spots. Mims has a large frame that moves well and his instincts are good, considering his lack of experience. He has the athleticism to man either tackle spot.

25. Green Bay Packers- Byron Murphy II, DT, Texas

New defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley will run a 4-3 scheme with Green Bay, which is a change for their unit. That could force the team’s standup edges to the dirt and raise their need for defensive tackle depth, since Devonte Wyatt hasn't panned out yet. Murphy pushes the pocket with regularity and is the top interior defender in this class. He could go higher, but the Packers will be happy if he falls here.

26. Tampa Bay Buccaneers- Laiatu Latu, EDGE, UCLA

Latu should not fall this far, but his medicals are still a big question mark. While his testing at the Combine were better than expected, the former Bruin also had an iffy pro day that backed up concerns about his athleticism. For those reasons, you could see Latu fall. His polish and deep bag of pass rush moves will keep him in the first round, though.

27. *Arizona Cardinals- JC Latham, OT, Alabama

The Cardinals' coaching staff comes from an Eagles system that values a balanced but powerful offensive line. The release of D.J. Humphries allows Paris Johnson Jr. to move to his natural left tackle position, opening the right tackle spot. Jonah Williams was signed to fill that role, but his film and metrics at tackle are uninspiring. Latham would push Williams to guard and give the team an upgrade at right tackle.

28. Buffalo Bills- Adonai Mitchell, WR, Texas

The Bills were hoping BrIan Thomas Jr. would fall to them, but odds are some team will have to trade up to secure Thomas in the actual draft. With that in mind, the Bills are happy to get Mitchell as a consolation prize. He had the best overall Combine of any receiver, plus his film shows a deep threat who can also get open underneath. He takes plays off, but he's an improvement on Gabe Davis in terms of pure talent and speed.

29. Detroit Lions- Ennis Rakestraw Jr., CB, Missouri

Even with the trade for Carlton Davis III, cornerback is one of Detroit's biggest needs. Rakestraw and his teammate Darius Robinson are two guys who fit the Dan Campbell mold, but Rakestraw plays the bigger position of need. He's an aggressive tackler in run support and on blitzes, plus he plays with tenacity in man and press coverage.

30. Baltimore Ravens- Nate Wiggins, CB, Clemson

The Ravens lost some defensive contributors to free agency and could lose more, so there are multiple holes they must fill. However, they cannot allow a talented corner like Wiggins to fall any further. The Clemson star is blazing fast on film and never gives up on a play. His movement skills are also a positive. He's smaller than you like with shorter arms, but he's a tremendous athlete and a willing tackler.

31.  *TRADE BACK: Los Angeles Chargers- Graham Barton, OL, Duke

Greg Roman and Jim Harbaugh have never successfully drafted and developed a top wide receiver. The 49ers lacked a true #1 during Harbaugh's entire tenure (which included Roman as OC) and the Ravens invested multiple firsts on WRs who Roman failed to feature. That's why they pass on Brian Thomas Jr. and trade out of the #23 spot. Their plan is to let Gus Edwards beat Patrick Mahomes.

Barton is a versatile blocker who put on good tape at both center and tackle in college. Harbaugh will value his versatility and strong hands in the run game. PFF graded the Chargers' run blocking as the worst in the NFL last year, with all of their interior blockers earning well below average scores. Barton would be an immediate improvement at right guard.

32. Kansas City Chiefs- Kool Aid McKinstry, CB, Alabama

Xavier Worthy remains a strong consideration if he falls here, but Andy Reid's recruitment of Hollywood Brown makes a deep threat less of a need. The team has reportedly made L'Jarius Sneed available in trade due to his cap hit, meaning they could soon need a starting cornerback to replace him. McKinstry is a savvy and physical press corner who fits what the Chiefs do.

 

Round 2

33. Carolina Panthers- Troy Franklin, WR, Oregon

Franklin is another guy I'm lower on than most, largely due to his issue with drops and thin build. However, he's a tall and athletic playmaker who wins on deep balls, can make people miss, and gets separation on the boundaries. The Panthers added Diontae Johnson to be their slot man and Jonathan Mingo is their possession guy. Franklin would give Bryce Young a deep threat and big playmaker to go along with those role players.

34. New England Patriots- Ladd McConkey, WR, Georgia

McConkey is a first-round talent on my board, so getting him in the second would be a great value. The Pats are a natural fit as well, given so many compare him to Wes Welker and Julian Edelman. I believe McConkey could play outside or in and become a true No. 1 wideout if he could add muscle without losing speed.

35. Arizona Cardinals- Kamari Lassiter, CB, Georgia

The NFC West is loaded with quality receivers and scary passing games, so Arizona must get better production from its corners. Only one corner on the team allowed a completion percentage lower than 71% last year. Lassiter allowed a mere 13 completions and a 39% completion rate in 2023, despite shadowing the top receivers in the SEC. He doesn’t have ideal length, but he has everything else.

36. Washington Commanders- Jordan Morgan, OT, Arizona

Morgan is a solid but unspectacular athlete. He moves well on film and tested relatively well at the Combine, but some still see him as a guard. The Commanders have a need at offensive tackle and Morgan's film suggests he can play there in the pros. He is the best tackle prospect left on this board, so Washington adds him knowing he can kick inside if need be.

37. Los Angeles Chargers- Roman Wilson, WR, Michigan

I have a third-round grade on Wilson, but his stock is rising after great Senior Bowl and Combine showings. He's quick in and out of breaks and has a good feel for zone. He also has a history with new Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh. The Chargers' current plan seems to be for Quentin Johnston to replace Mike Williams. There is no current in-house replacement for Keenan Allen, though.

38. Tennessee Titans- Jer’Zhan Newton, DT, Illinois

The Titans have other needs, but Newton's fall offers too much value for them to pass. He is a deceptive pass rusher who can lure offensive linemen out of position and then fill that void. He would add depth and more upside to a Titans pass rush that already features stalwarts in Jeffery Simmons and Harold Landry III.

39. *Carolina Panthers- Chop Robinson, DE, Penn State

Robinson is the type of player I am usually low on; an undersized edge with underwhelming sack production, no power profile, and minimal run support. His first step is butter, though. His athletic testing is off the charts, too. While Robinson isn't the prospect that Brian Burns was coming out of Florida State, he is a talented player with the upside to fill Burns' shoes.

40. *Washington Commanders- Darius Robinson, DL, Missouri

Robinson was dominant, playing all over the line at the Senior Bowl. He also produced 8.5 sacks against the SEC. He's a power rusher who isn't particularly sudden or fast on film, but he did show more twitch than expected at the Senior Bowl. The Commanders didn't do nearly enough to address their edge needs in free agency, so Robinson is the best option available.

41. *Green Bay Packers- Tyler Nubin, S, Minnesota

The Packers signed Xavier McKinney in free agency, but that only fills one safety spot on a team that needs several. Rudy Ford has come on of late, but he's best utilized as a third safety in a rotation. Nubin has some of the best ball skills in this class and can play slot corner when needed. He adds versatility to the secondary.

42.* Houston Texans- T.J. Tampa, CB, Iowa State

Tampa is one of the longer corners in this class and he allowed a quarterback rating of just 54.8 this season while breaking up 10 passes. He takes too many risks, but the former Cyclone is an aggressive playmaker with length for days. Houston could stand to bring in competition for Jeff Okudah, who has never allowed less than a 61.5% completion rate in any season of his career.

43. Atlanta Falcons- Chris Braswell, DE, Alabama

The Falcons passed on their defensive line needs in the first round of this mock, instead taking Odunze to load an already talented offense. That forces them to look at Braswell, who isn't on the same level as his teammate Dallas Turner or the other top edge-rushers in this class. However, Braswell does have good length, is persistent in his pass-rush, and plays with solid power.

44. Las Vegas Raiders- Edgerrin Cooper, LB, Texas A&M

Cooper is one of two elite athletes in this year's top-heavy linebacker class. He is an attacking playmaker whose speed helped him log eight sacks last year. His premium athleticism helps the Raiders improve at a position of weakness, giving them someone who can spy and attack the AFC's mobile quarterbacks.

45. New Orleans Saints- Kingsley Suamataia, OT, BYU

The Saints went best player available in the first round, taking Brock Bowers over their offensive line needs. Suamataia is a very long and athletic tackle who is the cousin of Penei Sewell. His upside is high and he fills a big need for New Orleans.

46. Indianapolis Colts- Ja’Tavion Sanders, TE, Texas

The Colts have invested multiple mid-round picks in the tight end position recently, but none of those picks have panned out. Sanders is a better talent than any of those recent picks and would offer a gifted safety net for Anthony Richardson to target across the middle of the field. They can afford to make this move after re-signing Grover Stewart and bringing in Raekwon Davis to solidify their interior defensive line.

47.* New York Giants- Jaden Hicks, S, Washington State

Hicks is a smart defender who can run the defense if need be. He is a capable tackler with good instincts and the ability to shut down tight ends. Hicks can move all over the field as well. He should be an immediate starter, filling the void left by Xavier McKinney's exit in free agency.

48. Jacksonville Jaguars- Xavier Legette, WR, South Carolina

The Jags signed Gabe Davis to improve upon and replace Zay Jones, but they also wanted to bring back Calvin Ridley. With Ridley in Tennessee, Jacksonville has a hole in their receiver rotation. Rumors are they are now kicking the tires on Brandon Aiyuk, suggesting they know Trevor Lawrence needs more weapons. While Keon Coleman is my preferred pick, Legette's stock is higher after a strong Combine.

49. Cincinnati Bengals- Braden Fiske, DT, Florida State

Cincinnati's re-signing of B.J. Hill and addition of Sheldon Rankins doesn't alleviate their need for quality pieces on the inside of their defensive line. Fiske tested off the charts at the Combine, registering the best overall performance at his position. He was also an effective pass-rusher at two different colleges, with numbers worthy of a second-round pick.

50. Philadelphia Eagles- Payton Wilson, LB, North Carolina State

The Eagles' signing of C.J. Gardner-Johnson means they are set at nickelback, and the addition of Devin White could take them out of the linebacker chase as well. However, Philly's lack of depth at the position was fatal in 2023 and the team has to wonder if adding White and Zack Baun is enough. Wilson could also be viewed as a versatile weapon who can play linebacker or rush off the edge in some packages.

51. Pittsburgh Steelers- Ruke Orhorhoro, DT, Clemson

The Steelers would've looked at Junior Colson with this pick had they not signed Patrick Queen. With that need filled, the Steelers can plan for the eventual retirement of Cameron Heyward. By drafting Orhorhoro, the Steelers add a big defensive lineman who can play inside or at the 5-tech. He is sturdy against the run, gets good push, and moves well on stunts. He would be a logical heir to Heyward, whenever the former star retires.

52. Los Angeles Rams- Keon Coleman, WR, Florida State 

The Rams are thrilled that Coleman fell to them here. He has great size, length, and his hands are among the best in the class. His testing numbers were disappointing, but his position drills at the Combine confirmed what we see on film. Coleman is great at contested catches, has elite hand-eye coordination, and adjusts to the ball well. He would make this Rams passing attack impossible to stop.

53. Philadelphia Eagles- Max Melton, CB, Rutgers

The Eagles have to get younger at corner. Melton is a bit of a reach, but he has good top-end speed and is fluid in transition. His film is better than many think, and the corner class dries up quickly. Do not be surprised if Melton sneaks into the backend of the second round.

54. Cleveland Browns- Trey Benson, RB, Florida State

The Browns are a run-first team with questions at running back. Nick Chubb's gruesome knee injury could keep him from ever returning to what he once was and Cleveland hasn't done anything to add depth behind him. While Jerome Ford is a good rotation piece, the Browns didn't trust him with Chubb's workload. Benson has good speed, soft hands, and the ability to be a three-down back.

55. Miami Dolphins- Zach Frazier, C, West Virginia

The Dolphins need help at multiple spots on the offensive line. While Connor Williams was good at center last year, he and Frazier both have position versatility. The West Virginia blocker should go early in the second round. If he falls this far, the Dolphins should draft him regardless of his position and make things work. Their need for quality blockers is too high not to take a thick and smart anchor like this.

56. Dallas Cowboys- Jonathon Brooks, RB, Texas

The Cowboys lost Tony Pollard in free agency and Deuce Vaughn is currently their most likely starter. Jerry Jones has a long history of valuing workhorse backs and he doesn't currently have anything close to that on his roster. The need is there and the team's priorities are there.

Jones and Co. will value adding a local product who is widely considered the most well-rounded back in the class. Reports at the Combine were that Brooks' knee will be ready for training camp. Even if it isn't, Dallas can bring in a bridge back like D'Onta Foreman and hope that Brooks is a star by midseason.

57. Tampa Bay Buccaneers- Khyree Jackson, CB, Oregon

The Bucs traded Carlton Davis III, opening a hole at the cornerback position. Jackson is a long corner who plays aggressive football, jamming receivers at the line and keeping his hands on them. His brand of football matches what the Bucs are used to with Davis and Jamel Dean.

58. Green Bay Packers- Junior Colson, LB, Michigan

The Packers created a need at interior linebacker by releasing De'Vondre Campbell. Colson is a national champion and a thumper inside. He plays with good lane discipline, is smart in zone coverage, and fights through blocks. Colson can be a leader on this defense.

59. Houston Texans- Marshawn Kneeland, DE, Western Michigan

Kneeland was one of the big winners at the Combine, posting better speed and agility numbers than his tape suggested. On film, he's a powerful edge who wins with a bull rush and separation with long arms. DeMeco Ryans values a deep defensive line. While Houston upgraded on the edge by adding Denico Autry and replacing Jonathan Greenard with Danielle Hunter, they could still use another quality edge to form a deep rotation.

60. Buffalo Bills- Kamren Kinchens, S, Miami (FL)

The release of Jordan Poyer creates a need at safety for the Bills. Cam Lewis is the listed starter, but it is unlikely he can do what Buffalo asked of Poyer. While some are down on Kinchens after he posted a poor 40-yard dash at the Combine, his film is very good. He has great ball skills, reads the quarterback and zone well, is an aggressive tackler, covers ground in the backend, and is a leader.

61. Detroit Lions- Christian Haynes, OG, Connecticut

The Lions lost a quality starter on the inside of their offensive line when Jonah Jackson signed with the Rams. That leaves a gaping hole on a team that prides itself on running the football between the tackles. Haynes has pop in his hands, plays with good leverage, and is a good mover on pulls.

62. Baltimore Ravens- Adisa Isaac, DE, Penn State

With Patrick Queen gone and Jadeveon Clowney a free agent, Baltimore has a need for interior linebacker and pass-rush help. Isaac helps fill the pass-rush need with violent hands and constant effort. He handles double-teams well and uses multiple pass-rush moves. Isaac offers depth and insurance if David Ojabo can't stay healthy or Odafe Oweh never translates pressures into sacks.

63. San Francisco 49ers- Roger Rosengarten, OT, Washington

San Francisco's signings of Leonard Floyd and Yetur Gross-Matos make edge less of a need. While re-signing Colton McKivitz could mean the 49ers don't view right tackle as a need either, McKivitz's inconsistent film is hard to ignore. Rosengarten is a smart tackle with good footwork who regularly beats defenders off the snap. He would allow the 49ers to move McKivitz inside to guard, where he's better suited.

64. Kansas City Chiefs- Patrick Paul, OT, Houston

The Chiefs addressed their cornerback need in round one, freeing them up to address tackle with this pick. Jawaan Taylor was one of the worst big free agent acquisitions last year, performing particularly poorly in run support. Paul has very good length, plays with an edge, and has enough athleticism to stay at tackle. His fundamentals need polish, but he gives KC needed depth.
