1 Buccaneers
Top need: Quarterback
The pick: Jameis Winston, QB, Florida State
Welcome to the NFL, Jameis. Please keep your hands to yourself at all times. Love, Rog.
2 Eagles (projected trade with Titans)
Top need: Cornerback
The pick: Marcus Mariota, QB, Oregon
It would take a crazy man to pay the ransom for trading up from No. 20. Eagles coach Chip Kelly qualifies.
3 Jaguars
Top need: Pass rusher
The pick: Dante Fowler Jr., OLB, Florida
Leonard Williams' slide begins as Jags land top defensive playmaker.
4 Raiders
Top need: Receiver
The pick: Kevin White, WR, West Virginia
Raiders choose between Amari Cooper and a bigger, faster Amari Cooper.
5 Redskins
Top need: Defensive back
The pick: Trae Waynes, CB, Michigan State
It really, really, really pays to run really, really, really fast in Indianapolis in February.
6 Jets
Top need: Quarterback
The pick: Shane Ray, OLB, Missouri
Not even the Jets could find a QB to reach on at No. 6.
7 Bears
Top need: Defense
The pick: Leonard Williams, DT, Southern Cal
Another reason to worry about the Vikings' offensive line just fell into Chicago's lap.
8 Browns (projected trade with Falcons)
Top need: Receiver
The pick: Amari Cooper, WR, Alabama
Knowing Cleveland's luck, Cooper will dislocate his shoulder hugging Roger Goodell.
9 Giants
Top need: Offensive line
The pick: Ereck Flowers, OT, Miami
Giants start the run on the most remarkably underappreciated position in sports: offensive line.
10 Rams º
Top need: Offensive line
The pick: Andrus Peat, OT, Stanford
Sorry, St. Louis. He can play either tackle spot, but not both.
11 Saints (projected trade with Vikings)
Top need: Pass rusher
The pick: Vic Beasley, OLB, Clemson
Saints jump ahead of Atlanta, Vikings get extra picks to move down two spots, fans act like End of Days has arrived.
12 Falcons (projected trade from Browns)
Top need: Pass rush
The pick: Brandon Scherff, OT, Iowa
Atlanta fills a need, Vikings wait, fans say goodbye to loved ones and move toward the light (watch the clear glass).
13 Vikings (projected trade from Saints)
Top need: Receiver
The pick: DeVante Parker, WR, Louisville
Teddy reunites with Parker, Vikings offense looks more explosive, fans begin chanting, "Soo-per Bowl! Soo-per Bowl!"
14 Dolphins
Top need: Receiver
The pick: Breshad Perriman, WR, Central Florida
Good, bad or ugly, someone will pounce because of those 40 times. #troywilliamson.
15 49ers º
Top need: Cornerback
The pick: Kevin Johnson, CB, Wake Forest
Linebacker another possibility as San Francisco rebuilds crumbling defense.
16 Texans
Top need: Receiver
The pick: Bud Dupree, OLB, Kentucky
Yeah, another pass rusher for the Texans. Crazy.
17 Chargers
Top need: Offensive line
The pick: Arik Armstead, DE, Oregon
It's pick 17. Do you know where your favorite running back is? Not here.
18 Chiefs
Top need: Offensive line
The pick: La'el Collins, OT, LSU
Good value here, according to the roughly 1.5 billion mock drafts.
19 Browns
Top need: Defensive tackle
The pick: Danny Shelton, NT, Washington
With Cleveland's luck, Shelton will become a spokesman for Nutrisystem.
20 Titans (projected trade from Eagles)
Top need: Cornerback
The pick: Randy Gregory, DE, Nebraska
Marijuana can't keep a good prospect down forever. Right, Percy?
21 Bengals º
Top need: Defensive tackle
The pick: Jordan Phillips, DT, Oklahoma
ESPN passes out tranquilizers to on-air talent who can't stop talking about Todd Gurley and Melvin Gordon.
22 Steelers
Top need: Cornerback
The pick: Marcus Peters, CB, Washington
Sounds like a temperamental young jerk. Make him rich at your own risk.
23 Lions
Top need: Defensive tackle
The pick: Cameron Erving, OL, Florida State
Defensive line is a possibility, but sensible pick is Erving, who can play any position up front.
24 Cardinals
Top need: Linebacker
The pick: Todd Gurley, RB, Georgia
Sorry, Mrs. Peterson. You won't be wintering in the desert.
25 Panthers
Top need: Left tackle
The pick: D.J. Humphries, OT, Florida
Nice spot to get a starting tackle.
26 Ravens
Top need: Receiver
The pick: Dorial Green- Beckham, WR, Missouri
Being a pain in everyone's backside can't hold talent down forever. Right, Randy?
27 Cowboys
Top need: Cornerback
The pick: Malcom Brown, DT, Texas
Sorry, Mrs. Peterson. But here are $12.75M reasons for you and your husband to appreciate Minnesota.
28 Broncos
Top need: Offensive line
The pick: Maxx Williams, TE, Minnesota
Something tells me Peyton Manning made Julius Thomas, not vice versa. Enjoy, Maxx.
29 Colts
Top need: Safety
The pick: Landon Collins, S, Alabama
Yes, safeties are indeed an important part of the NFL.
30 Packers
Top need: Linebacker
The pick: Eric Kendricks, LB, UCLA
Seems like a good fit, good value, etc., etc., etc.
31 Saints
Top need: Receiver
The pick: Jaelen Strong, WR, Arizona State
Needing a QB to develop for a few years, New Orleans could trade out of this spot and look for QB lower.
32 Vikings (projected trade with Patriots)
Top need: Cornerback
The pick: Jalen Collins, CB, LSU
Vikings get the fifth-year option and a jump on key Day 2 need with a familiar trade up. Either way, don't fall asleep.
It’s too soon to tell how much the immigration crackdown is to blame.
