9. Indianapolis Colts- Leonard Fournette, RB, LSU

The Indianapolis Colts have a lot of work to do in the offseason, but one of their top priorities should be giving Andrew Luck some help. Adding a game-breaking running back like Leonard Fournette would take a ton of pressure off of Luck.

10. New Orleans Saints- Takkarist McKinley, Edge, UCLA

New Orleans has done a solid job adding some young talent on the defensive over the past few drafts. However, the defensive rebuild isn’t over and they need to add another edge rusher. Takkarist McKinley is a late riser but someone capable to getting after the quarterback.

11. Carolina Panthers- Sidney Jones, CB, Washington

Carolina’s season has been a complete disaster for a number of reasons. One of the bigger problems has been the secondary which needs help at both safety and cornerback. Sidney Jones is a solid cover-guy who plays an aggressive brand of football.

He’s the type of corner who doesn’t hesitate to jump the route in order to create turnovers.

12. San Diego Chargers- Jamal Adams, S, LSU

San Diego has some nice young building blocks on defense and adding Jamal Adams could take the unit’s production to the next level. Philip Rivers isn’t getting any younger and would benefit from not having to chase points.
