Fit: New York will have no issues will saying farewell to Daniel Jones this offseason — I can guarantee you that. Jones feels like a lost cause at this point, given some of the throws he was unwilling to pull the trigger on in the Giants' latest loss, a heartbreaker in Germany at the hands of the Carolina Panthers. Do you know who is never unwilling to let a throw rip? You guessed it, Miami's Cameron Ward. He's a gunslinger at heart who is enjoying a monster breakout season and would bring welcomed aggressiveness to the QB position.

Fit: The Tennessee Titans could feasibly go quarterback here. I'm not sure how high up on the list they'll rank for Shedeur and Deion Sanders for potential destinations, however — and Deion has not been shy about the idea of facilitating a favorable landing spot for Sanders. But the Titans can go in a number of directions without fault here, even if the Sanders camp isn't on board, including wide receiver. DeAndre Hopkins is off to greener pastures, former 1st-round pick Treylon Burks has not produced, and veteran Tyler Boyd is a short-term bandaid. Tetairoa McMillan is a physical three-level threat who would complement Calvin Ridley quite well.

Fit: Cleveland is in a tough spot. They're unlikely to move out of QB Deshaun Watson's contract this offseason, given the financial ramifications — complicating a potential decision to draft Sheduer Sanders as the "other" top QB prospect in this year's draft. Would the Sanders camp like landing in a small market like Cleveland, where the offensive line is deteriorating and so much of the team's cash spent over the first two years of a potential rookie contract would be burned up in another QB vs. the rest of the roster? Let's assume not. In that case, the cornerback spot is a sneaky need for the Browns. Young corner Martin Emerson Jr. has regressed severely. And star cornerback Denzel Ward has suffered a number of concussions in recent years. Will Johnson would be a premiere value position and potential star in an aggressive scheme like the Browns'.

Fit: I love this fit for Shedeur, so much so that I'd likely project a trade to No. 1 overall to make it happen if I were sick enough to include trades in an early November mock draft. The Raiders have been starving for a quarterback since moving on from Derek Carr and cannot afford to strike out at the position again. The team added Tom Brady to their ownership group this season, has a well-invested offensive line, and is one of the most prestigious organizations in league history. It feels, to me, like a great fit.

Fit: The Dolphins have endured a Murphy's Law season in 2024. The star quarterback had an IR stint for a concussion, and star defensive talent is getting hurt in practice and missing several key weeks upon the QB's return, and that all adds up to what has been a highly underwhelming start to the year. Should the Dolphins stick in this range, the opportunity to add DL Mason Graham may be too good to pass up — he compares favorably to Christian Wilkins coming out of Clemson, who Miami lost in free agency this past offseason. Ironically, one of the buttons they successfully pushed in personnel this offseason was putting Calais Campbell in Wilkins' place — but Campbell is pushing 40 years old and is routinely on a snap count.

Fit: The Patriots have made the leap of faith, putting QB Drake Maye into the lineup and letting him collect reps. It's been successful thus far, which is giving New England plenty of reason to be optimistic of what the future holds. But this team's offensive line outlook is still very, very shaky. The 2025 offensive line class hasn't had anyone that has wrestled away the title of a top talent, but LSU's Will Campbell becomes a much more appealing prospect when you open your mind to the idea of him in a run-heavy scheme and as a high-floor interior option if he doesn't work out at tackle. I think either position outcome would be a win for New England.

Fit: The once-proud New York Jets defense has fallen on hard times this season. Gone is the maestro, Robert Saleh. Former defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich is now serving as the interim head coach and spending less time with his defense — and it shows. The group has held just one of their last 6 opponents under 23 points, and that came on a short week at home against the Houston Texans. The run defense is struggling. The ball-hawking and playmaking in the secondary are missing in action. An elite safety prospect like Malaki Starks could bring a whole new element to the secondary. His versatility would be an awesome addition alongside the lockdown corners the Jets boast.

Fit: The Carolina Panthers have found a little life at the midway point of the season. Sure, their wins came against teams picking No. 2 and No. 8 in this current draft order over the last two weeks, but wins are wins for a franchise that hasn't got to enjoy many of them in recent years. QB Bryce Young is showing some improvement upon his return to the lineup, too, which may be a bigger win than any the Panthers will put in the win column on a Sunday this season. On the other hand, the pass-rush group isn't collecting many wins. Charles Harris and A'Shawn Robinson entered Week 10 as the only Panthers defenders with two whole sacks or more on the season. Georgia's Jalon Walker is a diverse, disruptive talent that Carolina defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero could certainly weaponize to bring some more potency to pressuring the opposition.

Fit: Things are going to get ugly with a capital U for the Cowboys down the stretch. Star quarterback Dak Prescott is reportedly prepared to undergo season-ending surgery to repair his partially torn hamstring. Dallas' unsavory backup situation will surely flounder amid the shaky foundation of the offense this season. The good news? A running back like Ashton Jeanty could add more stability to the offensive infrastructure, with or without Dak. And the Cowboys, who are largely one-dimensional on offense and in need of playmakers, have a track record under Jerry Jones of targeting running backs much earlier than pick No. 11. Run in the card, Jerry!

Fit: The AFC South is home to some freak wide receivers. Houston has Nico Collins. Jacksonville has Brian Thomas Jr. This mock draft already added Tetairoa McMillan to the Tennessee Titans. The Colts? They need an answer at corner for all of these big wide receivers who can FLY. Enter Shavon Revel Jr. — who, in many draft classes, could have had a case to be CB1. It was exceptionally cruel of the football gods to hand him a season-ending injury on top of being in the same draft class as Travis Hunter & Will Johnson, but this dude can absolutely ball. I see some Richard Sherman in his game, which could be poetic if the Colts retain their staff — as defensive coordinator Gus Bradley was a key figure in the Seahawks' Super Bowl runs with Sherman serving a central role.

Fit: Cincinnati's trench play simply needs to be better. This team needs more sturdy play on both sides of the ball, particularly on the interior. The fortunate news for them? Kenneth Grant is still on the board. Grant is a super-sized 330-pound defender with some freakish athleticism; he'd be a welcomed addition in the heart of this defense to help make life easier on the linebackers and change the numbers in the secondary.

Fit: The Buccaneers defense has struggled mightily this season. Defenses are finding room to run, teams are scoring points, and the Bucs are spiraling in situational metrics. They have their own problems on offense amid the injury bug, but defensively, the holes that were a concern entering the season have fueled some of their issues. Getting diverse pass rush help would surely help their cause — and the Bucs have recently trended towards powerful defensive linemen like Nic Scourton. He can play all over the front, and if Bowles is back for 2025, Scourton's flexibility would be a lovely added layer to their ability to match personnel and play against heavy or spread sets and know the team has a legit threat on the edge.

Fit: If you're counting Will Campbell as an interior blocker (I am), this is a bit of a surprise. Cameron Williams becoming the top tackle off of the board wasn't necessarily something anyone had on their draft 'Bingo Card' from the beginning of the college season. But Williams has surreal tools and would give the Seahawks some much-needed depth and flexibility up front. Third-year tackle Abraham Lucas didn't practice for the first half of the season and has dealt with injuries in each of the last two seasons — he's entering into a contract year in 2025. Could Williams, who tips the scales at over 330 pounds and has freakish ability, play inside in the short term and kick outside as a long-term option at tackle? Maybe. Either way, the offensive line looms large as a big need for the Seahawks.

Fit: The Rams were a team that was well-documented in their flirtation with trading up for Brock Bowers this past April. All Bowers has done is play at a torrid pace in receiving production, although the Rams are likely plenty content with the contributions of their own 1st-round choice, Jared Verse. But if the Rams are intent on adding a new pass catcher to their ranks who can continue to blur the lines between 11 and 12 personnel, Loveland might be the guy to do it. He's lining up frequently in the slot or out wide for the Wolverines and has some implementation parallels to how Bowers can be used. And, on a bad passing offense, Loveland is finding plenty of production. Could this be the next step for the Rams offense, especially as Cooper Kupp nears the end?

Fit: The 49ers are experiencing a defensive regression of their own this season relative to the standard fans have come to expect. The 49ers made a modest trade at the deadline to try to get a little extra help on the interior up front with Kalia Davis but will need more sturdy reinforcements this offseason. Derrick Harmon has emerged as a major riser during the 2024 season after transferring to Oregon from Michigan State. He's a disruptor in the middle with a motor that runs hot. With more polish, he could convert even more of his disruption reps into actual finishes — but he'll have no shortage of quality looks in a San Francisco front that boasts Nick Bosa.

Fit: The Broncos have found their groove. They're not scoring a ton of points, but Bo Nix's play has stabilized after some shaky early-season performances. Most importantly, they appear capable of taking advantage of a down year in the AFC. But more weapons for Sean Payton are a must moving forward to get the most out of Nix—and Texas' Isaiah Bond is an electric option for whom Payton's offense could create a lot of explosives.

Fit: The Texans' roster on defense has a nice blend of young talent and star power. The one thing this group is definitely missing is an interior disruptor to play off of the potent edge group the Texans have hoarded. Nolen is enjoying a productive first season with the Ole Miss program, and it would be an awesome change of pace from some of the heavy-handed defenders that are currently manning the middle in Houston. Particularly on passing downs, this has the potential to make the Texans a big problem up front to account for with individual matchups.

Fit: Tennessee pass rusher James Pearce Jr. has been unblockable in SEC play. He has posted six or more quarterback pressures in 5 of his last 6 contests. For the Falcons, he brings a different skill set than many of the body types the team has gone after in recent years — he's freakishly long and slippery at first contact. And despite the addition of Matthew Judon this season, quarterback pressure has still been an issue for this Falcons defense. Enough is enough.

Fit: The Cardinals are one of the surprise teams this season, thanks to a red-hot stretch over the last four weeks. The team has managed to piece together this run with stingy defense at home; they haven't allowed a touchdown in their last three home games. It's all impressive, and the question that now begs to be asked is, "What's next?". More versatility and disruption up front would be a great development — particularly with a player like LT Overton. The Cardinals invested a late 1st-round draft choice in Darius Robinson this past year to add some physicality up front, but Robinson has yet to collect snaps this season amid a calf injury and a death in his family. Even with Robinson in the picture, there's plenty of opportunity to go around. Overton is a heavy-handed mauler in his own right who is exploding during his first season with the Crimson Tide after two seasons at Texas A&M.

Fit: Los Angeles wants to line up and play bully ball. The team has no shortage of physicality between their trench play and their running backs, but the ceiling of the tight end room feels like another added layer. Especially when the player in question is as versatile as Penn State's Tyler Warren. Warren is a do-it-all talent at the position and gets schemed touches on a weekly basis — a testament to his raw athleticism. For the Chargers, he could be a reliable target for QB Justin Herbert while compounding the challenges of preparing for the smash-mouth run game that Harbaugh and company have brought to Los Angeles.

Fit: The Commanders got the hard part already — they found the stud quarterback on a rookie contract. But if they're going to really push the limits of the offense with Jayden Daniels at the helm, they'll need to continue to create more explosive opportunities around him. Luther Burden III hasn't had the best season in 2024, but his explosiveness with the ball in his hands is undeniable. In an offense with a supreme route runner with Terry McLaurin and a number of diverse tight end options, Burden III can be a big play option first and foremost.

Fit: The Ravens have always been a team keen on investing in the trenches. They have a type, too, which just so happens to overlap quite a bit with Ersery. This is a mauling presence in the run game at tackle. With Ronnie Stanley in a contract year, getting another young option to grow into a starting role would be very "Baltimore" — their stability affords them the opportunity to draft and insert talent into the lineup while growing into their potential. And the mobility of QB Lamar Jackson makes the margin for error on any given snap wider than probably any other situation across the league.

Fit: The Steelers have a standout cornerback in Joey Porter Jr. but need a long-term answer opposite him. Mansoor Delane has been playing tremendous football for the Hokies this season, and his physicality would match well on the outside opposite Porter Jr. The ball production has been up this year, too—an added bonus that could push his stock into the stratosphere of the draft.

Fit: Benjamin Morrison suffered a season-ending injury after a modest start to the season in 2024. But his overall technique makes him an attractive option at cornerback and he plays with very good instincts on the back end. The aggressiveness of the Flores defensive scheme leaves ample opportunity for refined corners with good instincts to make plays, even if they aren't prototypical size options or freak athletes. Assuming Morrison is healthy for the start of the season, this could be a steal for Minnesota.

Fit: Philadelphia's tendencies under Howie Roseman leave a whittled list of options for a first-round draft choice. Given the youth of the secondary as currently assembled, it is probably safe to assume the secondary is not on the menu. The Eagles are well-stocked in the skill group, too. Perhaps an offensive tackle would be on deck, if only there were an option with good value here. Instead, look to the defensive front, where the Eagles can grab one of the hottest pass rushers in the country. Umanmielen has two sacks in four of his last five contests and is finally living up to the potential that put him squarely on the map while playing four seasons with the Florida Gators.

Fit: The Bills found great success with drafting and developing Gregory Rousseau as a tall, long, powerful defensive lineman. Landon Jackson might be the closest thing we've seen to Rousseau in the years since. The good news for Jackson? He's made huge developmental strides over the past two years on his own while at Arkansas. He and Rousseau would be an awesome pairing of length and heavy hands upfront.

Fit: Detroit's entire identity lives in the trenches on offense. This is a program that prides itself on its toughness and physicality. Graham Glasgow and Kevin Zeitler are quality starting options, but neither should be considered a long-term option at this stage. Donovan Jackson deserves a lot of credit for his sacrifice for the team this season; he's switched to left tackle amid the loss of Josh Simmons and has been playing out of position the past few weeks — including a tough outing against Penn State. The tape affirms that he's not a tackle...but the selflessness goes a long way none the less for this quality guard option.

Fit: Kansas City's wide receiver room feels like it is undergoing constant renovation. The group has short-term options like Hollywood Brown (injured) and DeAndre Hopkins (trade deadline), who haven't been collecting reps all season long. Sprinkle in the injury to Rashee Rice, and there's been a lot of interruption to Patrick Mahomes' pass catchers this year. Another rookie contract option gives the room more stability, and Egbuka is a reliable target with great hands.
