player. 50. <p>Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford is getting beat up this year. He also has to throw short to avoid getting sacked, making deep threat Calvin Johnson useless. So the Lions get a left tackle that can actually give Stafford time to find Johnson deep.</p>. OT. Mississippi. Laremy Tunsil. 1

Jaylon Smith. 2. player. 35. <p>The Tennessee Titans have a great pass-defense but aren’t good against the run. Improving against the run would enable them to win games by dominating on defense. So they get a stud linebacker they can build their run-defense around.</p>. ILB. Notre Dame

Penn State. Christian Hackenberg. 3. player. 10. <p>Houston Texans head coach Bill O’Brien has full control over personnel. And his former No. 1 high school recruit is among the top quarterback back prospects. So with the No. 3 overall pick, he turns his No. 1 recruit into his No. 1 draft pick.</p>. QB
