player. 31. Pick Analysis. Defensive Tackle. Ed Oliver. Houston. 17. Scouting Report

Dexter Lawrence has looked great as a rookie, but his ceiling is much lower than Oliver’s. His stat sheet may not show it, yet he has been one of the more disruptive rookies on the interior.

Center. Erik McCoy. 18. 60. Scouting Report. player. Pick Analysis. Texas A&M

Garrett Bradbury has looked good, however, McCoy has looked better; he has been a staple in the New Orleans offensive line as a rookie. For his efforts, he was awarded the 1st-team interior offensive linemen through the first half of the season by Dane Brugler of The Athletic.

If only one of these linemen could have fallen to the second round so the Cardinals could have selected them to protect their new franchise quarterback in Kyler Murray.

Pick Analysis. Defensive Tackle. 19. Scouting Report. Mississippi St.. Jeffrey Simmons. player. 35

It’s never fun to draft the same player in a re-draft, but it’s hard to see the Titan’s going in a different direction after how awesome Simmons has looked. He missed a huge chunk of the season because of an ACL injury, but in his first game for Tennessee, he recorded a sack.

Sure, Nick Bosa is terrorizing quarterbacks off the edge, but have you seen Jeffrey Simmons for the Titans this year? This is a slam dunk pick here in this re-draft.

Ohio State. Terry McLaurin. player. 45. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. Wide Receiver. 20

After trading away Emmanuel Sanders to the 49ers, the Broncos have absolutely no depth at the receiver position. McLaurin has hit the ground running as a rookie and could eventually fill the gap that Sanders left.

21. 49. Pick Analysis. Safety. Maryland. Darnell Savage Jr.. player. Scouting Report

Savage has been all over the field for the Packers making plays left and right when he is able to stay healthy. He has been bit by the injury bug a couple times as a rookie, but nothing serious enough to warrant a fall in the draft.
