I think Richardson is going to emphatically remove the lid from Lucas Oil Stadium at the NFL combine. That will lead to the Colts taking a chance on him, given the hiring of former Eagles Shane Steichen as head coach. Richardson has similarities to Jalen Hurts and All-Pro upside.

The Texans upgrade the quarterback position in a big way with Young, who has all the improvisational brilliance to succeed in today’s NFL.

Carter is the ideal replacement for the retiring J.J. Watt. He’s a long, hyper-athletic interior rusher who’s disruptive on three downs.

Anderson gives me serious Khalil Mack vibes, which makes this perfect for the Bears, particularly after trading back. In the trade, the Bears get this pick, the Colts’ selections in Round 2 and Round 4 along with a 2024 first-round pick and third-round pick, plus a 2025 second-round choice.

Witherspoon looks like a supreme athlete, and his 2022 film was squeaky clean. He could ascend to the first cornerback off the board in this class.

The Packers add to their already strong pass rush with another long, big-time athlete at the EDGE spot in Wilson.

The Falcons move Jackson in a blockbuster with the Falcons and are still able to land Stroud inside the top 10. More brilliant GM’ing from Eric DeCosta. In the deal, the Ravens get this selection, 2024 first-round and second-round picks from Atlanta along with 2025 second-round and fourth-round picks.

The Seahawks were fine giving Poona Ford an opportunity inside as an undersized defensive tackle, so they could gravitate toward the smaller but enormously explosive and productive Kancey. Seattle lands both of Carolina’s second-round picks (No. 62 and No. 94) in this deal.

Van Ness is a long, highly productive rusher who’ll formulate and awesome duo with Josh Sweat in Philadelphia for years.

Johnson is a large, athletic, well-balanced blocker equally as impressive paving lanes for the run game as he is protecting the quarterback.

Addison can either learn lots from the similarly sized Brandin Cooks in Year 1, or act as his instant replacement. With Young and Addison, this is a quality first-round haul for Houston.

In this scenario, the Jets land Derek Carr on the open market and grab a pass-pro wizard in Skoronski to protect one of the edges of the Gang Green offensive line.

Yes, Bill Belichick dipping back into Round 1 wide receiver waters with the imposing, long-striding Johnston, who’ll instantly be a threatening deep threat in the NFL.

Duncan is one of the more-gifted athletes at the offensive tackle spot in this class. The Buccaneers need to upgrade one of their tackle positions.

The Seahawks are in need of better interior offensive line play, and Schmitz is a squeaky clean center prospect with loads of experience. He’s ready to go from Day 1.

The Ravens add youth to their secondary with Gonzalez, whose film was super clean in 2022.

The Vikings dip into the receiver well to complement Justin Jefferson. Awesome value here for the Vikings, given Smith-Njigba’s injury in 2022 pushes him down the board.

Branch is everywhere in the secondary, a classic playmaker who can man any position on the back end. He’s what the Jaguars need on defense.

Torrence is an NFL-ready guard the Giants can plug in immediately. He’ll improve the run and pass game for the G-Men.

The Cowboys could be extremely multiple with Sanders on the defense next to Micah Parsons. Sanders is a long, athletic off-ball/edge hybrid.

The Bills’ current regime has a long history of picking magnificent athletes in the draft, especially on the first two days. Jones isn’t a finished product but has monstrous upside because of how springy he is at his size. He could even start at guard if need be.

Bresee is an enigma because he was a former No. 1 overall recruit in the nation but didn’t always play to that standard and was dinged up relatively often in college.
