9. Buffalo Bills- Derrick Nnadi, DT, Florida State
The Buffalo Bills run defense has been horrible since they traded away Marcel Dareus. Derrick Nnadi is load in the trenches who hold his ground at the point of attack. He also has surprising quickness which helps him make plays away from the frame.
10. Tampa Bay Buccaneers- Connor Williams, OT, Texas
Tampa Bay’s season is going down the tubes and the fan base might be already looking towards the draft. They could be in great position to grab an elite left tackle prospect like Connor Williams. This pick would help open things in the run game and give Jameis Winston more time in the pocket.
11. New York Jets- Orlando Brown Jr., OT, Oklahoma
The Jets don’t have a ton of young building blocks on the roster. This means that they can use this pick on the best player available. Orlando Brown Jr. would be a good pick and give the Jets a franchise left tackle to help whoever they decide is the quarterback of the future.

12. Arizona Cardinals- Mike McGlinchey, OT, Notre Dame
Arizona is going to be in the market for a quarterback this offseason, but that doesn’t mean they have to force the issue. Instead, they can help whoever lines up at quarterback by adding a talented offensive tackle like Mike McGlinchey.
13. Oakland Raiders- Derrius Guice, RB, LSU
Marshawn Lynch’s season in Oakland hasn’t been much of a success on the field. It’s entirely possible that this is his only year with the Raiders. If that’s the case, Oakland needs to find a new lead runner and Derrius Guice would fit that bill.
14. Cleveland Browns (via Hou)- Rashaan Evans, LB, Alabama
Rashaan Evans is one of the more underrated prospects in this draft class. He’s a rangy linebacker capable of making plays sideline to sideline. His athleticism helps him also make an impact in pass coverage and blitzer.
15. Cincinnati Bengals- Chukwuma Okorafor, OT, Western Michigan
The Bengals need to address their issues along the offensive line even if that means moving on from previous early round picks. Chukwuma Okorafor is a good athlete who excels at protecting the quarterback. His addition would help bring some stability back to the offensive line.
16. Baltimore Ravens- James Washington, WR, Oklahoma State
Baltimore recent demoted former 1st round pick Breshad Perriman which isn’t much of a surprise. This team needs to find a young stud at the wide receiver position. James Washington has a big play threat and plays with a ton of physicality.
