The Raiders need some powerful run blocking and Parham can deliver just that. It's easy to say Davis is a two-down player but his obvious strength and surprising speed make a legit three-down threat who just needs to refine his pass-rush arsenal beyond the bull rush. Whatever Dotson lacks in size, he makes up for in every other area of his game as one of this years most complete pass-catchers. Charles Cross, OT, Mississippi State (6-5, 307 pounds). Even after the departure of Tyreek Hill, the Chiefs biggest problems are on defense, where they need to add talent at every level. The Jaguars could select one of the top pass rushers, but franchise quarterback Trevor Lawrence needs to be protected. Denver Broncos | Minnesota OT Daniel Faalele, 76. Houston (via NO): Jeremy Ruckert, TE, Ohio State81. Buffalo Bills | Iowa State RB Breece Hall, 58. San Francisco 49ers | Baylor DB Jalen Pitre, 62.

Booth is a complete, pro-ready prospect who has the skill set to excel in any scheme. Washington Commanders | Ohio State WR Garrett Wilson, 12. The Chargers landed J.C. Jackson in free agency and Kendrick can further boost their coverage as a rangy complement. New York Jets (from CAR) | North Dakota State WR Christian Watson, 40. QB is the easy choice here, after the Panthers missed out on Watson, but any passer selected here would be overdrafted. The Packers should think about wide receiver foremost in the first round after trading No. Booth's size, strength and aggressiveness that add up to big plays on the ball make him a fine fallback should McDuffie go to the Patriots. Baltimore Ravens | Minnesota EDGE Boye Mafe, 46. Willis has the athleticism, toughness physically and mentally to fit well in their scheme and carries more overall upside than Pickett.

But he is another player who changed some minds with his Senior Bowl week and he continued to convince folks of his first-round talents by putting on a show at the combine. Hamilton is falling on some boards because of teams not wanting to take safety too high and concerns that given his size, he might be more of a linebacker 'tweener. The Jets, however, already are going for ceiling over floor with Thibodeaux so they might as well get a double dosee of it. If he was eligible two years ago he would've been a top-5 pick. NY Giants: Bernard Raimann, OT, Central Michigan37. Dallas Cowboys | Kentucky EDGE Joshua Paschal, 57. San Francisco: Bryan Cook, S, Cincinnati62. Hamiltons slow 40-yard dash might scare some folks off, but the film proves hes one of the most dangerous weapons in this years class, regardless of position. The Falcons might have the least talented roster in the NFL right now, so they could go anywhere with this pick. Houston Texans | Minnesota EDGE Boye Mafe, 38. Georgia Keeping the winner of the 2021 Ted Hendricks (top DE) and Lombardi (top lineman) Awards in Michigan will, of course, help the team's pass rush. Hutchinson's toughness against the run and football intelligence, however, also played big roles in making him the Heisman Trophy runner-up and a top-five prospect. Tennessee Titans | Arizona State OL Dohnovan West, 91. NFL free agency is mostly behind us, and the NFL draft is just weeks away. Mafe has been an astronomical riser because of recent showcases of his explosiveness as a pass rusher with top-flight athleticism. / 220 lbs. Plus, the Detroit Lions nab a quarterback.

Otton can provide a dynamic, athletic pass-catcher for Daniel Jones while he rounds out his blocking. Tampa Bay Buccaneers | Georgia DL Devonte Wyatt, 28. Seattle Seahawks (from DEN) | Cincinnati QB Desmond Ridder, 41.
