6) Arizona Cardinals, 0-4: Tristan Wirfs, OT, Iowa

The Cardinals have one of the worst offensive lines in the NFL and take to the draft to fix that problem. On some boards, Wirfs is listed above Thomas as the better tackle, so no matter what Arizona is getting a franchise OT for years to come.

7) Atlanta Falcons, 1-3: AJ Epenesa, Edge, Iowa

The Falcons needed a pass-rusher last season but decided to draft an offensive lineman instead. Not very bright when you consider how well the edge class is performing. With the Falcons landing Epenesa in this mock, it looks like they may be geniuses after all.

8) Miami Dolphins (via Pittsburgh Steelers, 1-3): Henry Ruggs III, WR, Alabama

Josh Rosen has really great touch on his deep balls leading the Dolphins to select the fastest player in the draft — Henry Ruggs. He will give Rosen something he’s been missing all year, a receiver who can actually catch the ball.

9) Carolina Panthers, 2-2: Jordan Love, QB, Utah State

Cam Newton is having a hard time staying healthy and let’s face it, Kyle Allen isn’t the future of the Panthers despite his recent play. You have all the weapons you need in Carolina on offense and it’s time to get them a QB who can get them the ball (no offense to Cam, but he’s been injured).

10) Minnesota Vikings, 2-2: Jacob Eason, QB, Washington

It took the Vikings two years and just over $80 million to realize that Kirk Cousins isn’t the guy, but it’s better late than never… I guess. The Vikings have one of the best WR duos in the league and they are not maximizing them, so get a QB who can. Like Thielen said, “You have to be able to hit the deep balls.”

11) Baltimore Ravens, 2-2: CeeDee Lamb, WR, Oklahoma

The Ravens go with Oklahoma receivers in back-to-back drafts in hopes of setting Lamar Jackson up for success. Adding Lamb to an already potent offense (currently tied for 1st in points per game) sets this team up for the future as long as Lamar continues his upward trajectory.
