2016 NFL Draft Predictions: Mock Draft – First Look at the Top 10 Picks: Another NFL regular season is officially in the books, and while some teams are preparing for the playoffs, the rest of the league is already turning its attention to next year. Most of that attention will be focused the 2016 NFL Draft, and every franchise hopes to find the rookie that is going to help transform the team from bottom-feeder to contender. There is a lot of scouting still to come, but in the meantime, here is an early look at the potential top 10 picks.
2016 NFL Draft Predictions: Mock Draft – First Look at the Top 10 Picks
- Tennessee Titans: Laremy Tunsil, OT, Ole Miss
The Titans already have their quarterback of the future in Marcus Mariota. Now, they need a reliable left tackle to make sure Mariota doesn’t keep missing games because he is constantly being hammered in the pocket.
- Cleveland Browns: Joey Bosa, DE, Ohio State
Cleveland really needs a quarterback, but there is simply no player at the position in this draft worthy of the No. 2 pick. Bosa is a scheme-versatile, disruptive force on the line that will help a defensive unit that ranked 30th against the run and 28th in sacks.
- San Diego Chargers: Ronnie Stanley, OT, Notre Dame
The Chargers have a lot of needs, but Stanley is one of the safest picks in this draft. He can only help San Diego’s 31st-ranked rushing attack, and he will provide a stable piece to build around for the post-Philip Rivers era that is going to be here sooner rather than later.
- Dallas Cowboys: Myles Jack, LB, UCLA
Sean Lee is Dallas’ best linebacker, and he is constantly battling injuries. Injury aside, Jack is an elite athlete with untapped upside that will give the Cowboys a much-needed playmaker in the front seven.
- Jacksonville Jaguars: Jalen Ramsey, CB, Florida State
Jacksonville needs help on defense, especially in the secondary, and Ramsey has the size and speed to play both corner and safety at an elite level. In the pass-happy NFL, Ramsey’s versatility is even more valuable.
- Baltimore Ravens: Laquon Treadwell, WR, Ole Miss
Even with Steve Smith deciding to return for another season, the Ravens are still painfully thin at the position. Treadwell has everything you look for in a No. 1 receiver, and he will immediately provide a dangerous weapon across from Smith before taking over as the top target in 2017.
- San Francisco 49ers: Jared Goff, QB, California
The 49ers are cleaning house, and a new regime needs a new quarterback. Goff isn’t the seventh-best player in this draft, but he looks like the best bet among the available QBs to transition to the NFL quickly. Thanks to the new rookie salary structure, teams have been much more willing to reach for a potential franchise quarterback.
- Miami Dolphins: Vernon Hargreaves III, CB, Florida
Miami was a mess on both sides of the ball this year, and while the defensive front has potential playmakers, the secondary needs help. Hargreaves has the speed and skills to become a potential shutdown corner at the next level.
- Tampa Bay Buccaneers: DeForest Buckner, DE, Oregon
With solid linebackers and Gerald McCoy anchoring the middle of the defensive line, the Buccaneers need an imposing edge-rusher to bring it all together. Buckner has special physical gifts, and he has the size and the strength to be a nightmare for opposing quarterbacks.
- New York Giants: Ezekiel Elliott, RB, Ohio State
Running backs are rarely taken this high these days, but the Giants have been searching for a reliable ground game for years, and Elliott is the total package with the skills to be an every-down weapon for the Giants.
