BENGALS
Devin White, LB, LSU
After the Bengals finally manage to convince someone to take the defensive coordinator job, they'll need to supply that coach with some younger bodies up front. Vincent Rey is a free agent. Vontaze Burfict can't stay on the field. The Bengals have a need at linebacker and White is the best one in this draft.

PACKERS
T.J. Hockenson, TE, Iowa
Even if Jimmy Graham comes back, the Packers would benefit by giving Aaron Rodgers a weapon like Hockenson, who can both block and catch. In other words, he's the perfect tight end for today's NFL. I love the idea of Hockenson falling to the Patriots as their Gronk replacement, but it feels like Hockenson won't last until the back end of the first round. Expect his stock to continue to rise in the months to come.

DOLPHINS
Kyler Murray, QB, Oklahoma
The Dolphins are about to embark upon a rebuild. It'd be great if they can find a quarterback, but with a multi-year project looming, they don't need to force it this year. Luckily for them, Murray -- due to his height -- falls to them.
14
FALCONS
Deandre Baker, CB, Georgia
The Falcons' defense ranked 28th in yards allowed, 25th in points allowed, and 31st by DVOA. It's difficult for them to go wrong here by taking a defensive player. Baker might be the best cornerback in the draft.
15
REDSKINS
Montez Sweat, EDGE, Miss. State
They'd love a quarterback, but with the big three off the board already, they look to add another capable pass rusher to pair with Ryan Kerrigan. With 22.5 sacks over the past two seasons, Sweat can be that guy.
16
PANTHERS
Jachai Polite, EDGE, Florida
Julius Peppers retired. The Panthers ranked 27th in sacks last season. So, they need reinforcements on the edge. Polite is coming off an 11-sack season at Florida.
17
BROWNS
Rashan Gary, DL, Michigan
The Browns could use a receiver, but Gary is too good to pass up and they'd be adding another quality player to a defensive front that already features Myles Garrett. Some mocks have Gary going much higher. Here, I have him falling as his lack of college production gets called into question during the lengthy draft process. He had 9.5 sacks in three seasons at Michigan.
18
VIKINGS
Jawaan Taylor, OT, Florida
For better or for worse, the Vikings are tied to Kirk Cousins for two more seasons. They might as well build around him to maximize their chances of winning with him. As his first season in Minnesota made clear, he's not good enough to win entirely on his own. With the Vikings' defense mostly coming back, and two good receivers and a young running back in place, the Vikings address their offensive line.
19
TITANS
Christian Wilkins, DL, Clemson
I still think the Titans could target a cornerback here, especially after Malcolm Butler struggled mightily in Year 1 of his expensive contract. But the Titans would also be entirely correct to bolster their defensive line. Wilkins is a disruptor up front. In his last season at Clemson, he recorded 14 tackles for a loss and 5.5 sacks.
20
STEELERS
Byron Murphy, CB, Washington
Cornerback has been a problematic position for the Steelers in recent years. Their selection of Artie Burns a few years ago did not work out. CBS Sports draft writer Ryan Wilson, who also happens to be a fan of the Steelers, told me a few weeks ago that he likes Murphy better than Williams, who went to the Broncos at No. 10.
