Projecting the picks in the 2024 NFL Draft with a first-round mock draft is challenging enough. Each additional round adds an extra degree of difficulty.

But it's also fun and important to see who might be in play as selections from No. 1 overall through Mr. Irrelevant in a seven-round mock exercise. While some early decisions might be coming better in focus, speculation across the board continues before all 32 teams are on the clock for real.

Sporting News does only one seven-round mock draft every year to kick off draft month. Here's that edition, going through all 257 potential picks.

NFL Mock Draft 2024: Complete 7-round edition

Round 1

Caleb Williams, Drake Maye
(Getty Images)

1. Chicago Bears (from Panthers)

  • Caleb Williams, QB, USC (6-1, 214 pounds)

The Bears are locked into Williams with their investment in a new offensive coaching staff and key personnel. They will feel much better about him being finally the long-term franchise solution as they move on from Justin Fields.

2. Washington Commanders (4-13 last season)

  • Drake Maye, QB, North Carolina (6-4, 223 pounds)

The Commanders are doing well to mask their QB of choice with this pick, but Maye has been the No. 2 option behind Williams since early in the process with little more to prove regarding his arm, accuracy, and athleticism.

3. New England Patriots (4-13)

  • Jayden Daniels, QB, LSU (6-4, 210 pounds)

The Patriots are blowing up their offense minus Mac Jones and should want to reboot with a big-armed, dynamic runner to push up their QB ceiling again. Daniels, the reigning Heisman winner succeeding Williams, fits that mold.

4. Arizona Cardinals (4-13)

  • Marvin Harrison Jr., WR, Ohio State (6-3, 202 pounds)

The Cardinals need a dominant new No. 1 target for Kyler Murray, so should Harrison last here thanks to the QB run, he's a no-brainer.

5. Los Angeles Chargers (5-12)

  • Brock Bowers, TE, Georgia (6-3, 243 pounds)

Jim Harbaugh and Greg Roman cleared top wide receivers Keenan Allen and Mike Williams for cap and schematic purposes in creating a new offense around Justin Herbert. They did get some backup-level options in free agency, but Bowers can be the new Mark Andrews for Roman as Herbert's new go-to guy.

6. New York Giants (6-11)

  • Malik Nabers, WR, LSU (6-0, 200 pounds)

The Giants also should be prepared to jump on a bona fide No. 1 wideout to further boost Daniel Jones. Nabers is a little more complete and polished than Rome Odunze, making him the pick here.

7. Tennessee Titans (6-11)

  • Joe Alt, OT, Notre Dame (6-9, 321 pounds)

The Titans have worked hard in improving the offensive coaching and skill personnel to lift second-year QB Will Levis, and now it's time to lock down his long-term left tackle.

8. Atlanta Falcons (7-10)

  • Dallas Turner, EDGE, Alabama (6-3, 247 pounds)

The Falcons have been aggressive with their major offensive upgrades, led by signing Kirk Cousins. While that should please new coordinator Zac Robinson, this is a chance to get defensive-minded coach Raheem Morris a cornerstone pass rusher who also makes a lot of plays elsewhere.

9. Chicago Bears (7-10)

  •  Laiatu Latu, EDGE, UCLA (6-5, 259 pounds)

After adding Allen, Gerald Everett, and D'Andre Swift in free agency, the Bears need to think about pass rush here over offensive skill players for Williams. Matt Eberflus will like this versatile, productive option to pair with Montez Sweat.

10. New York Jets (7-10)

  • Rome Odunze, WR, Washington (6-3, 212 pounds)

The Jets acted late in free agency to add Williams to better support Garrett Wilson and Breece Hall for Aaron Rodgers, but Williams is an aging flier coming off a major injury and they could use more home-run juice at the position. Odunze would add another dangerous field-stretching element.

11. Minnesota Vikings (7-10)

  • J.J. McCarthy, QB, Michigan (6-2, 219 pounds)

The Vikings will do their best to move up, as they now have two first-rounders in play, but McCarthy's live arm and gritty athletic playmaking should appeal to them here should he fall past the non-QB needy teams.

Bo Nix

12. Denver Broncos (8-9)

  • Bo Nix, QB, Oregon (6-2, 214 pounds)

Nix provides another welcome arm-accuracy-athletic combination to fill another team's major QB void. The Broncos have had a good look at Nix, and he can execute the offense of Sean Payton and Joe Lombardi well.

13. Las Vegas Raiders (8-9)

  • Taliese Fuaga, OT, Oregon State (6-6, 234 pounds)

The Raiders may be left out on the first-round run of QBs unless they trade up. They do have a bridge option in Gardner Minshew, and they could use this pick instead to get a strong, athletic bookend for Kolton Miller up front.

14. New Orleans Saints (9-8)

  • Olumuyiwa Fashanu, OT, Penn State (6-6, 312 pounds)

The Saints have been battling some injury and ineffectiveness issues at both tackles, and Fashanu gives them another option over disappointing Trevor Penning on the left side opposite recovering Ryan Ramczyk.

15. Indianapolis Colts (9-8)

  • Nate Wiggins, CB, Clemson (6-2, 185 pounds)

The Colts brought back Kenny Moore and he needs some speedy downfield coverage in the secondary. They might think about adding more offense, but corner fills a key need and is the better value here.

SCOUTING REPORTS: Caleb Williams | Jayden Daniels | Drake Maye

16. Seattle Seahawks (9-8)

  • Jared Verse, EDGE, Florida State (6-4, 254 pounds)

The Seahawks will keep thinking about upgrading their front for defensive-minded Mike Macdonald with the pass rush most in mind, and Verse's productive energy would fit well in the coach's philosophy.

17. Jacksonville Jaguars (9-8)

  • Terrion Arnold, CB, Alabama (6-0, 189 pounds)

The Jaguars have been missing a big-time playmaking corner since trading Jalen Ramsey. They do have the shutdown potential of Tyson Campbell on one side but could use someone to deliver more takeaways, such as the active Arnold.

18. Cincinnati Bengals (9-8)

  • J.C. Latham, OT, Alabama (6-6, 342 pounds)

The Bengals moved on from Jonah Williams and Orlando Brown Jr. didn't come through as expected, so going for Latham to protect Joe Burrow is smart.

19. Los Angeles Rams (10-7)

  • Cooper DeJean, CB, Iowa (6-1, 209 pounds)

The Rams should be on the radar for a quarterback if one of the top five slip, but they also need to address defense for new coordinator Chris Shula, Morris' successor. They could think tackle with Aaron Donald retiring, but DeJean can clean up nicely for their secondary as a hybrid inside-outside playmaker.

20. Pittsburgh Steelers (10-7)

  • Amarius Mims, OT, Georgia (6-8, 340 pounds)

The Steelers need to find a reliable blocking bookend to 2023 first-round Broderick Jones, and they can land a big pass and run upgrade with the massive Mims, who's capable of starting on either side.

SCOUTING REPORTS: J.J. McCarthy | Bo Nix | Michael Penix Jr.

21. Miami Dolphins (11-6)

  • Byron Murphy II, DT, Texas (6-0, 297 pounds)

The Dolphins lost Christian Wilkins to the Raiders in free agency and should be on the lookout to replace him with another explosive, all-around disruptor for new coordinator Anthony Weaver.

22. Philadelphia Eagles (11-6)

  • Quinyon Mitchell, CB, Toledo (6-0, 195 pounds)

The Eagles have become long in the tooth with their outside corners, Darius Slay and James Bradberry. Mitchell's downfield speed and strong coverage frame will help him start well on the perimeter.

23. Minnesota Vikings (from Browns through Texans)

  • Johnny Newton, DT, Illinois (6-2, 304 pounds)

The Vikings will be focused on their QB first, and with no pressing offensive concerns, they can continue to revamp their defense for DC Brian Flores after landing Jonathan Greenard, Andrew Van Ginkel, and Blake Cashman in free agency. Newton can give them additional pass-rush pop up front.

24. Dallas Cowboys (12-5)

  • Jackson Powers-Johnson, G, Oregon (6-3, 328 pounds)

The Cowboys can also think offensive tackle here after not bringing back Tyron Smith, but interior should take precedence with a void at left guard, center Tyler Biadasz signing elsewhere, and Zack Martin about to turn 34.

25. Green Bay Packers (9-8)

  • Tyler Guyton, OT, Oklahoma (6-8, 322 pounds)

The Packers need to boost their offensive line for Jordan Love and Josh Jacobs after parting ways with long-time but oft-injured and aging stalwart David Bakhtiari. Guyton went from big mauler to nimble pass protector, a perfect complete fit for them up front.

Kool-Aid McKinstry

26. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (9-8)

  • Kool-Aid McKinstry, CB, Alabama (5-11, 199 pounds)

The Buccaneers traded Carlton Davis and had plenty of cornerback coverage issues last season for Todd Bowles. They can get some welcome playmaking refreshment for the back end with McKinstry.

27. Arizona Cardinals (from Texans)

  • Troy Fautanu, G, Washington (6-4, 317 pounds)

The Cardinals went for an offensive tackle, Paris Johnson Jr., in last year's draft and now must address the interior to better block for Kyler Murray and James Conner. There's not much separating Fautanu and Powers-Johnson now.

28. Buffalo Bills (11-6)

  • Brian Thomas Jr., WR, LSU (6-4, 205 pounds)

The Bills traded Stefon Diggs and lost Gabe Davis in free agency and added only short-area receiver Curtis Samuel to the mix. They need a true outside field-stretcher with size who can also replace Diggs as a complete No. 1 and Thomas remains a sweet early target.

Chop Robinson
(Getty Images)

29. Detroit Lions (12-5)

  • Chop Robinson, EDGE, Penn State (6-3, 254 pounds)

The Lions added some defensive line help for Aidan Hutchinson in free agency, including former Saints pass rusher Marcus Davenport. Robinson can be more of a regular with his array of moves as his nickname would suggest.

30. Baltimore Ravens (13-4)

  • Graham Barton, OT, Duke (6-5, 313 pounds)

The Ravens need to get an option for either right tackle or left guard to keep the strength of their offensive line intact after they moved on from Morgan Moses and Kevin Zeitler. Barton is a candidate to be a strong, immediate starter at either position, maybe best suited to dominate inside.

31. San Francisco 49ers (12-5)

  •  Ennis Rakestraw Jr., CB, Missouri (5-11, 183 pounds)

The 49ers could use some coverage help away from Charvarius Ward, and Rakestraw has some Trent McDuffie-like qualities that could allow him to ace the slot before he settles in to start outside.

32. Kansas City Chiefs (11-6)

  •  Kingsley Suamataia, OT, BYU (6-5, 326 pounds)

The Chiefs didn't bring back aging former Buccaneer Donovan Smith, and Jawaan Taylor had his well-documented holding struggles last season. Sumataia has become a borderline first-rounder with his standout athleticism for his size.

Round 2

33. Carolina Panthers

  • Darius Robinson, EDGE, Missouri (6-5, 285 pounds)

Darius and Chop are neck-and-neck as late first-round pass rushers. The Panthers should have their eye on the one who's available here after trading Brian Burns and hoping that Jadeveon Clowney has some more late-career production left.

Getty Images

34. New England Patriots

  • Adonai Mitchell, WR, Texas (6-2, 205 pounds)

The Patriots, should they land Daniels, need a speedy deep threat who can catch up to his big arm and stretch the field to open up the offense. Mitchell can oblige.

35. Arizona Cardinals

  • Braden Fiske, DT, Florida State (6-4, 292 pounds)

The Cardinals need to rebuild their defensive front for Jonathan Gannon, and Fiske's active, relentless pursuit of the backfield should be the kind of attack player Gannon covets.

36. Washington Commanders

  • Kamari Lassiter, CB, Georgia (5-11, 186 pounds)

The Commanders took some secondary hits in free agency with Kendall Fuller and Kamren Curl leaving. They need to upgrade the back end for Dan Quinn's defense after some front-seven investment, and Lassiter can deliver as a smooth cover man.

37. Los Angeles Chargers

  • Troy Franklin, WR, Oregon (6-2, 176 pounds)

Should the Chargers opt for Bowers in the first round, they can find plenty of big-play wide receivers to target here, topped by Franklin.

38. Tennessee Titans

  • Payton Wilson, LB, NC State (6-4, 233 pounds)

The Titans could use a rangy cover man who hustles to make a lot of plays in their revamped defense. Wilson would be a great passing game asset for new coordinator Dennard Wilson.

39. Carolina Panthers (from Giants)

  • Xavier Worthy, WR, Texas (5-11, 165 pounds)

The Panthers' new offense under coach Dave Canales calls for some field-stretchers with speed, and neither Adam Thielen nor Diontae Jonson is that type of receiver for Bryce Young. Young shouldn't mind Worthy, who proved he can flat-out fly past all other wideouts while at the NFL Combine.

40. Washington Commanders (from Bears)

  • Ladd McConkey, WR, Georgia (6-0, 186 pounds)

The Commanders like their outside starters, Terry McLaurin and Jahan Doston, who will be key targets for their first-round QB. But they also didn't keep Curtis Samuel in free agency, leaving a spot for a technically sound, short-to-intermediate slot option. McConkey fits well into Kliff Kingsbury's offense, too.

41. Green Bay Packers (from Jets)

  • Chris Braswell, EDGE, Alabama (6-3, 251 pounds)

The Packers need to tap into more versatile outside help, and Braswell is an experienced prospect who did a lot of everything well for the Crimson Trade playing off Dallas Turner.

42. Houston Texans (from Vikings)

  • T.J. Tampa, CB, Iowa State (6-1, 189 pounds)

The Texans need some coverage depth to support the combination of young Derek Stingley Jr. and newcomer Jeff Okudah. Tampa's skill set fits well into the coverage concepts of DeMeco Ryans.

43. Atlanta Falcons

  • Tyler Nubin, S, Minnesota (6-1, 199 pounds)

The Falcons can go defense again for Morris after getting Turner for the edge rush in the first round. The top safety on the board would form a terrific 1-2 punch with star Jessie Bates III.

44. Las Vegas Raiders

  •  Zach Frazier, C, West Virginia (6-3, 313 pounds)

The Raiders can make this a continued strong offensive line overhaul for new offensive coordinator Luke Getsy. After going after Fuaga in the first round, they can land a snapper with long-term starting potential.

45. New Orleans Saints (from Broncos)

  • Edgerrin Cooper, LB, Texas A&M (6-2, 230 pounds)

Ageless Demario Davis needs someone with playmaking skills around him, especially on the strong side. With Payton Wilson's dynamic coverage off the board, the Saints should be fine targeting the well-rounded Cooper.

46. Indianapolis Colts

  • Xavier Legette, WR, South Carolina (6-1, 221 pounds)

The Colts, after seeing Worthy and MIichell come off the board as speedy deep threats, should tap into the Gamecocks to consider a needed extra weapon for Anthony Richardson's big arm.

Michael Penix Jr.

47. New York Giants (from Seahawks)

  • Michael Penix Jr., QB, Washington (6-2, 216 pounds)

Penix will just miss the first-round cut, as he has more injury concerns than the top-five QB prospects. This curveball by the Giants makes sense because Penix's big arm meshes with the philosophy of Brian Daboll and Mike Kafka.

48. Jacksonville Jaguars

  • Bralen Trice, EDGE, Washington (6-3, 245 pounds)

The Jaguars need to keep firing up some productive pass rush depth to better support Josh Allen, and Trice can be a strong rotational contributor.

49. Cincinnati Bengals

  • Mike Sainristil, CB, Michigan (5-8, 182 pounds)

The Bengals didn't re-sign Chidobe Awuzie, but they should be OK trying to replace him by getting the former Wolverines teammate of other starter D.J. Turner.

50. Philadelphia Eagles (from Saints)

  • Calen Bullock, S, USC (6-2, 188 pounds)

The Eagles could use a little more depth and playmaking at safety to support Reed Blankenship and newcomer C.J. Gardner Johnson, who's more of their nickel slot cover man.

Getty Images

51. Pittsburgh Steelers

  • Keon Coleman, WR, Florida State (6-3, 213 pounds)

Coleman has slipped behind some of the more dynamic wideouts, but he's still a productive possession option to help the Steelers replace Diontae Johnson.

52. Los Angeles Rams

  • Ruke Orhorhoro, DT, Clemson (6-4, 294 pounds)

The Rams waved goodbye to Aaron Donald this offseason, and Orhorhoro is the body they need to help lift up the interior of their three-man front.

53. Philadelphia Eagles

  • Adisa Isaac, EDGE, Penn State (6-4, 247 pounds)

The Eagles are reforming their defense into a 3-4 base attack under Vic Fangio and need different kind of situational pass rushers. After landing Bryce Huff in free agency, Isaac can give them a little more pop along with Josh Sweat.

54. Cleveland Browns

  • Kris Jenkins, DT, Michigan (6-3, 299 pounds)

The Browns need some inside pass-rushing pop to add to their run-stopping floor, and Jenkins fits well in the rotation with Dalvin Tomlinson, Shelby Harris, Maurice Hurst, and newcomer Quinton Jefferson.

55. Miami Dolphins

  • T'Vondre Sweat, DT, Texas (6-4, 366 pounds)

The Dolphins shouldn't mind to double up on defensive tackle for DC Anthony Weaver, as Sweat would pair nicely with his college teammate Murphy to disrupt on the same pro line (think Jonathan Allen, DaRon Payne again).

56. Dallas Cowboys

  • Jordan Morgan, OT, Arizona (6-5, 311 pounds)

After going interior line with Powers-Johnson in the first round, the Cowboys can catch a falling, sturdy Morgan in Round 2 for the outside.

57. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

  • Jonah Elliss, EDGE, Utah (6-2, 248 pounds)

After addressing a pressing pass defense need at corner with McKinstry in Round 1, the Bucs can keep making Todd Bowles happy after the team moved on from venerable Shaquil Barrett.

58. Green Bay Packers

  • Jaden Hicks, S, Washington State (6-2, 211 pounds)

The Packers spent good money to shore up one safety spot with Xavier McKinney in free agency. Hicks will allow them to further boost their run support from the position with some coverage upside to boot.

59. Houston Texans

  • Javon Baker, WR, UCF (6-1, 202 pounds)

The Texans brought back Noah Brown to complement the downfield big plays of Nico Collins and Tank Dell, but even after trading for aging Stefon Diggs, getting a high-upside, developmental receiver like Baker makes sense in their explosive young offense.

60. Buffalo Bills

  • Javon Bullard, S, Georgia (5-10, 198 pounds)

The Bills got gutted at safety out of cap necessity in free agency, so it makes sense to take the best playmaker available at the position.

61. Detroit Lions

  • Ricky Pearsall, WR, Florida (6-1, 189 pounds)

The Lions have Amon-Ra St. Brown to dominate the slot and are hopeful Jameson Williams can provide more soon, but it makes sense to add Pearsall, a route-running technician with some big-play flair.

62. Baltimore Ravens

  • Jermaine Burton, WR, Alabama (6-0, 196 pounds)

Burton gives the Ravens a classic slot to provide some much-needed youthful depth behind Zay Flowers.

63. San Francisco 49ers

  • Blake Fisher, OT, Notre Dame (6-6, 310 pounds)

Fisher has natural power and can work his agility to be an active all-around asset in Kyle Shanahan's blocking scheme outside.

64. Kansas City Chiefs

  • Jonathon Brooks, RB, Texas (6-0, 216 pounds)

The Chiefs need a solid change-of-pace runner with receiving skills to add some depth behind Isaiah Pacheco. Brooks is the ideal replacement for the combination of Jerick McKinnon and Clyde Edwards-Helaire.

Round 3

65. Carolina Panthers

  • Khyree Jackson, CB, Oregon (6-4, 194 pounds)

Jackson helps a team that traded Donte Jackson and added former Bill Dane Jackson. Khyree would provide a bigger frame and more big-play upside opposite Jaycee Horn.

Getty Images

66. Arizona Cardinals

  • Blake Corum, RB, Michigan (5-8, 205 pounds)

The Cardinals need to add a change-of-pace and sneaky receiving option to their backfield to support James Conner. Corum can thrive in that role in their system.

67. Washington Commanders

  • Marshawn Kneeland, EDGE, Western Michigan (6-3, 267 pounds)

The Commanders need to keep rebuilding their pass rush for Dan Quinn and should be thrilled to land a well-rounded defender like Kneeland with this pick.

68. New England Patriots

  • Kiran Amegadjie, OT, Yale (6-5, 323 pounds)

The Patriots should have seen Amegadjie's size and athletic versatility in New Haven, and they should want to add him to replace Trent Brown.

69. Los Angeles Chargers

  •  Jalen McMillan, WR, Washington (6-1, 197 pounds)

The Chargers, after adding Brock Bowers at tight end and Troy Franklin for a big-play wideout, need a smooth route-running slot to help replace Keenan Allen. McMillan should be the second of three U-Dub wideouts drafted after Rome Odunze.

70. New York Giants

  • Junior Colson, LB, Michigan (6-2, 238 pounds)

The Giants could use a heady, rangy cover man and blitzer for the second level to complement Bobby Okereke.

71. Arizona Cardinals (from Titans)

  • Sedrick Van Pran-Granger, C, Georgia (6-4, 298 pounds)

The Cardinals can keep working on a major upgrade to their interior offensive line, adding a starting center with first-rounder Troy Fautanu.

72. New York Jets

  • Max Melton, CB, Rutgers (5-11, 197 pounds)

The Jets did take a chance on former 49ers corner Isaiah Oliver for subpackages, but they can stay in New Jersey to find a solid, short-area slot to add depth between Sauce Gardner and D.J. Reed.

73. Detroit Lions (from Vikings)

  • Christian Haynes, G, Connecticut (6-3, 317 pounds)

The Lions locked up Graham Glasgow and signed Kevin Zeitler with Jonah Jackson leaving, but they could use some solid run-blocking depth inside.

74. Atlanta Falcons

  • Michael Hall Jr., DT, Ohio State (6-3, 290 pounds)

The Falcons stay defensive-minded for Raheem Morris, now addressing a key rotational backup piece with natural strength and explosiveness.

75. Chicago Bears

  • Ja'Lynn Polk, WR, Washington (6-1, 203 pounds)

The Bears could use a physical target to complement DJ Moore and Keenan Allen for Caleb Williams.

76. Denver Broncos

  • Malachi Corley, WR, Western Kentucky (5-10, 215 pounds)

The Broncos need to replace traded Jerry Jeudy with a more interesting slot option. Corley converts his strong routes into some big plays after the catch.

77. Las Vegas Raiders

  • . Kris Abrams-Draine, CB, Missouri (5-11, 179 pounds)

Abrams-Draine fills the Raiders' need for a fluid, agile corner with some playmaking upside behind their pass rush.

78. Washington Commanders (from Seahawks)

  •  Dominic Puni, G, Kansas (6-5, 313 pounds)

The Commanders could use a youthful, athletic run blocker inside, as newcomer Nick Allegretti is better as a swing backup.

Jeremiah Trotter Jr.

79. Atlanta Falcons (from Jaguars)

  • Jeremiah Trotter Jr. LB, Clemson (6-0, 228 pounds)

The Falcons can keep up the strong defensive haul behind Dallas Turner, Tyler Nubin, and Michael Hall Jr. by addressing another key inside piece to upgrade next to Kaden Elliss.

80. Cincinnati Bengals

  • Ja'Tavion Sanders, TE, Texas (6-4, 245 pounds)

The Bengals did re-sign Drew Sample and add Mike Gesicki to their tight end room, but they still need more athletic, nside pass-catching options with Tyler Boyd not re-signed. Sanders has loads of potential as a short-to-intermediate target.

81. Seattle Seahawks (from Saints through Broncos)

  • Spencer Rattler, QB, South Carolina (6-0, 211 pounds)

Ratter's combination of arm, athleticism, and experience should give him appeal as another quick developmental option to go with Sam Howell behind Geno Smith.

82. Indianapolis Colts

  •  Brandon Dorlus, EDGE, Oregon (6-3, 283 pounds)

The Colts could use a lot more speed and quickness in their pass rush, and that's just what Dorlus can provide.

83. Los Angeles Rams

  •  Cedric Gray, LB, North Carolina (6-1, 234 pounds)

The Rams can feel good about one half of their linebacker corps with Byron Young and Ernest Jones, but they need more run-stopping pop and pass-rush upside, which Gray provide.

84. Pittsburgh Steelers

  • Kamren Kinchens, S, Miami (5-11, 203 pounds)

The Steelers catch a falling Kinchens to give them another nickel back option behind Minkah Fitzpatrick.

85. Cleveland Browns

  • Gabriel Murphy, EDGE, UCLA (6-2, 247 pounds)

The Browns can inject well-needed youthful depth at defensive end with Murphy, who offers a good blend and power quickness to produce.

86. Houston Texans (from Eagles)

  • Leonard Taylor III, DT, Miami (6-3, 303 pounds)

The Texans did get Denico Autry, Foley Fatukasi, and Tim Settle to replenish their defensive line, but they won't mind adding more depth to help in the run-stopping rotation.

87. Dallas Cowboys

  • Braelon Allen, RB, Wisconsin (6-1, 235 pounds)

The Cowboys can jump on this freakish power runner as a potential new lead option with Tony Pollard gone.

88. Green Bay Packers

  • Christian Mahogany, G, Boston College (6-3, 314 pounds)

The Packers need to think about interior offensive line, too, after not re-signing Jon Runyan in free agency. Mahogany is a welcome, athletic option in their scheme.

89. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

  • Cooper Beebe, G, Kansas State (6-3, 322 pounds)

The Buccaneers need to upgrade their power run blocking, and Beebe is just the pick for that in this round.

90. Arizona Cardinals (from Texans)

  • Roman Wilson, WR, Michigan (5-10, 185 pounds)

The Cardinals need to replace some of the dynamic, big-play ability out of the slot, and Wilson can be an upgrade over Rondale Moore operating off former Big Ten rival Marvin Harrison Jr.

91. Green Bay Packers (from Bills)

  • Cam Hart, CB, Notre Dame (6-3, 202 pounds)

The Packers should be attracted to how well Hart uses his size in coverage, and he also has big-play upside.

92. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (from Lions)

  • Devontez Walker, WR, North Carolina (6-2, 193 pounds)

The Bucs need to develop a third receiver behind Mike Evans and Chris Godwin, and Walker's size, speed, and technique make for a good fit here.

93. Baltimore Ravens

  • Darian Taylor-Demerson, S, Texas Tech (5-10, 197 pounds)

The Ravens can target him as the versatile cover man to replace Geno Stone behind Kyle Hamilton and Marcus Williams.

94. San Francisco 49ers

  • McKinnley Jackson, DT, Texas A&M (6-1, 326 pounds)

The 49ers, after racking up some strong edge depth in free agency, do the same with a little another solid option for the inside of their 4-3 front.

95. Kansas City Chiefs

  • Brenden Rice, WR, USC (6-2, 208 pounds)

The Chiefs should like Rice's size and speed, giving them another outside playmaker beyond veteran newcomer Marquise Brown.

96. Jacksonville Jaguars (compensatory)

  • Patrick Paul, OT, Houston (6-8, 331 pounds)

The Jaguars need to think about the future of left tackle beyond Cam Robinson, but in the meantime, they can get a developing swing backup.

97. Cincinnati Bengals (compensatory)

  •  Jamari Thrash, WR, Louisville (6-0, 188 pounds)

The Bengals should think about adding this pass-catcher with some dangerous big-play skills to help replace Tyler Boyd directly after taking a tight end shot on Ja'Tavion Sanders.

98. Pittsburgh Steelers (from Eagles, compensatory)

  • Austin Booker, EDGE, Kansas (6-5, 240 pounds)

The Steelers would like to improve their pass-rush depth behind T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith. Booker fits the backup profile for them with his energy, relentlessness, and suddenness.

99. Los Angeles Rams (special compensatory)

  • Audric Estime, RB, Notre Dame (5-11, 221 pounds)

The Rams have been thrilled with the workhorse production of former Notre Dame star Kyren Williams, but they need to upgrade their backup situation. It makes sense to tap into the power and big-play burst of another Irish back.

100. Washington Commanders (from 49ers, special compensatory)

  • Johnny Wilson, WR, Florida State (6-6, 231 pounds)

Wilson has some unique size and imposing big-play flair. He can give the Commanders a hybrid replacement for Logan Thomas behind Zach Ertz.

Round 4

101. Carolina Panthers

  • Jaylen Wright, RB, Tennessee (5-10, 210 pounds)

102. Seattle Seahawks (from Commanders)

  • Zak Zinter, G, Michigan (6-6, 309 pounds)

Vinnie Iyer, has been with TSN since 1999, not long after graduating from Northwestern University’s Medill School of Journalism. He has produced NFL content for more than 20 years, turning his attention to full-time writing in 2007. A native of St. Louis, Mo. but now a long-time resident of Charlotte, N.C. Vinnie’s top two professional sports teams are Cardinals and Blues, but he also carries purple pride for all things Northwestern Wildcats. He covers every aspect of the NFL for TSN including player evaluations, gambling and fantasy football, where he is a key contributor. Vinnie represents TSN as host of the “Locked On Fantasy Football” podcast on the Locked On network. Over his many years at TSN, he’s also written about MLB, NBA, NASCAR, college football, tennis, horse racing, film and television. His can’t-miss program remains “Jeopardy!”, where he was once a three-day champion and he is still avid about crossword puzzles and trivia games. When not watching sports or his favorite game show, Vinnie is probably watching a DC, Marvel or Star Wars-related TV or movie.
