9. Arizona Cardinals- Mason Rudolph, QB, Oklahoma State

Mason Rudolph is an unfinished product, but boasts a huge arm and plenty of upside. He’s someone that would fit the mold of quarterback preferred by Bruce Arians. The Arizona Cardinals need to find someone capable of replacing Carson Palmer in the near future.

10. Los Angeles Chargers- Mitch Hyatt, OT, Clemson

More from With the First Pick

The Chargers added a stop-gap solution with the oft-injured Russell Okung. However, they need to find a long-term solution to their ever-lasting left tackle problem. Mitch Hyatt has the talent to step in and be an immediate contributor.

11. Indianapolis Colts- Malik Jefferson, LB, Texas

New General Manager, Chris Ballard, was very busy this offseason adding talent to the defensive side of the ball. However, the work is far from done which means they could look at defense early in the 2018 NFL Draft.

Malik Jefferson is a superb talent who makes plays from sideline to sideline. He could be the leader of this defense early in this rookie season.

12. Jacksonville Jaguars- Orlando Brown JR., OT, Oklahoma

The Jacksonville Jaguars that one of Branden Albert or Cam Robinson is the team’s long-term answer at left tackle. However, that’s far from a certainty with Albert’s injury history and Robinson’s inconsistency in college.
