1. Cleveland Browns- Mitchell Trubisky, QB, North Carolina

Personally, I have Mitchell Trubisky rated as a 3rd round prospect and behind Deshaun Watson. This would represent an obvious reach but that tends to happen with the quarterback position. It would be a major shock if the Browns took Trubisky over Myles Garrett.

2. San Francisco 49ers- Myles Garrett, Edge, Texas A&M

More from With the First Pick

The 49ers would jump for joy if the Browns allowed Garrett to fall into their lap. Garrett is by far the best and most complete prospect in this draft. He’s elite pass-rush ability, plays with a high motor and is still getting better.

3. Chicago Bears- Solomon Thomas, DL, Stanford

Chicago could go in a few different directions with this pick, but it seems like they are leaning towards a defensive player. Solomon Thomas is an explosive athlete who can generate pressure on the quarterback with both power and speed.

Another option would be one of the defensive backs including Marshon Lattimore, Jamal Adams and Malik Hooker.

4. Jacksonville Jaguars- Leonard Fournette, RB, LSU

Jacksonville doesn’t have a lot of glaring holes on their roster which means they have some flexibility. They would love to upgrade the offensive line, but there isn’t a prospect worthy of the No. 4 pick. The Jaguars could target an elite running back like Fournette if they can’t trade down.

5. Tennessee Titans (Rams)- Marshon Lattimore, CB, Ohio State

Marshon Lattimore is a stud cornerback prospect who should quickly develop into a shut-down corner. This is a great fit for the Titans who desperately need a No. 1 corner to help bolster their secondary.
