#9 Jacksonville Jaguars: K'Lavon Chaisson, Edge, LSU
With the probable departure of DE Yannick Ngakoue, the Jags will have an immediate hole at the defensive end. LSU's K'Lavon Chaisson is a versatile player, who can play both defensive end and linebacker, too. Pairing the elite edge rusher with last year's first-round pick, Josh Allen, along with Calais Campbell, should strike fear into opposing offensive coordinators.

#10 Cleveland Browns: Andrew Thomas, OT, Georgia
Thomas is an extremely well-rounded tackle, something that's awfully hard to find in today's pass-heavy NFL. The Browns must find a way to protect franchise quarterback, Baker Mayfield, who was sacked 40 times last season. Thomas would be an immediate upgrade over their current starting left tackle, Greg Robinson, too.
#11 New York Jets: Tristan Wirfs, OG, Iowa
Similar to the Cleveland Browns, the Jets too have their share of offensive line issues. Wirfs is a very athletic guard who can also play tackle. He's a dominant run blocker who has the ability to get to the second level with ease. His ability to create space as a lead blocker and dominant pass blocking techniques makes him the most well-rounded guard in this year's draft. The Jets must protect Sam Darnold at all costs, and that starts upfront. Passing on Wirfs would be a mistake on New York's part, should he fall to them at No. 10.
#12 Las Vegas Raiders: Jerry Jeudy, WR, Alabama
This scenario is almost too perfect for GM Mike Mayock and company. Jeudy is this class' best and most versatile receiver. His track-like speed, combined with his elite route-running skills makes him a matchup nightmare for any opposing corner. The Alabama star would be perfect for Jon Gruden's system, while giving Derek Carr a legitimate deep threat at receiver, too.
#13 New York Giants (via Colts): Jedrick Willis, OT, Alabama
Even though the Giants (in this scenario), trade back to the 13th pick, they still get their man in Alabama's Jedrick Willis. He's as polished a left tackle as they come, and New York's tackle position has been a constant revolving door for far too long. Drafting Willis, who only surrendered one sack all of last season, makes almost too much sense for Dave Gettleman and company.
#14 Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Jeff Okudah, CB, Ohio State
Tampa Bay has a lot of holes to fill, particularly in their secondary. Jeff Okudah is far-and-away the best corner in this draft, and the Bucs haven't had a true shutdown corner since Ronde Barber back in the early 2000s. Okudah is a true lock-down corner that would be a major upgrade to one of the worst secondaries in all of football.
#15 Denver Broncos: Ceedee Lamb, WR, Oklahoma
The Broncos may have finally found their long-term answer at quarterback with Drew Lock. Giving Lock an explosive, play-making receiver should help the young quarterback out tremendously. Not to mention that it would make newly hired offensive coordinator Pat Shurmur happy, too.
#16 Atlanta Falcons: A.J. Epenesa, Edge, Iowa
With the Falcons announcing Vic Beasley's departure recently, they'll definitely be in the market for another pass rusher. For a team that's struggled to find a productive, dominant edge rusher for the past several seasons, I believe Epenesa can finally provide them with that missing piece.
