Thoughts on potential targets Lawrence is the obvious and safest choice for the Jaguars. He has all the tools you look for in a pocket passer, in addition to above average Trevor Lawrence mobility. It would be fairly surprising if he doesn't go No. 1. Fields ceiling is equal to Lawrence's, but he's slightly less proven as a passer. In any other year, he's a candidate to go No. 1, but probably won't challenge Lawrence for this spot. They're obviously doing their homework on and , but it's' tough to imagine either getting serious consideration Other QB above Lawrence. In 9 years as Dir. of Player Personnel and GM in SF, Baalke never drafted a CB in the 1st or 2nd round. But they clearly need some upgrades in the secondary, so maybe that trend changes with the second pick.

Thoughts on potential targets GM Joe Douglas was with the Eagles when they drafted Wentz, and there's definitely some similarities between Wentz and Fields (at least Wilson/Fields much more so than Wentz/Wilson). But they could certainly fall in love with Wilson's accuracy. If they decide to give Darnold another look, upgrading the offensive line makes sense. Sewell or Slater would pair nicely with Mekhi Becton, Sewell/Slater giving them young bookend tackles. George Fant's contract is easy get out of, so he's not in the way at all. After adding Denzel Mims (pure deep threat) last year, they need either a more well-rounded receiver or a strong option in the slot. This could be Chase or Smith at No. 2, although unlikely. It could also be someone like or Amon-Ra St. Brown at No. 23.

This front office is probably smart enough to not reach for a in the first round, but it's definitely a need and will likely be Running Back addressed on Day 2. and Najee Harris are strong possibilities. DeVante Parker should return (although they can escape his contract if they want), but otherwise an overhaul is needed.

Thoughts on potential targets Matt Ryan doesn't appear to be washed and should have success in Arthur Smith's play action heavy offense, but the Falcons have to consider Fields/Wilson/Lance while they're drafting in the top five. Takk McKinley was a bust, was a disappointment this year and edge rusher is their top need. Unfortunately, there isn't a lot to choose from at the top of the draft. Kwity Paye is probably the only possible target at No. 4. They've invested in a lot in the position, including AJ Terrell in the first round last year, but the 2020 production of Terrell, Oliver and II Dennard was disappointing. Surtain looks like an elite prospect and may generate some interest as well.

Thoughts on potential targets and Tyler Boyd are probably locked into starting jobs, but they need another weapon in the A.J. Green role. Chase fits much Ja'Marr Chase better into that role than DeVonta Smith, but Smith will certainly be considered. Pairing either Penei Sewell or Rashawn Slater with Jonah Williams to protect Burrow with young bookend tackles will be tempting. Either Sewell/Slater Sewell or Slater would be an obvious upgrade over Bobby Hart at RT. It's hard to justify drafting a TE this high, especially for a rebuliding team. But Pitts is a rare talent, so with Higgins and Boyd already in place, Kyle Pitts maybe they view Pitts as a more valuable addition than the top WRs.

Thoughts on potential targets If they're building around Hurts, he'll need some help. Chase seems like a better fit than DeVonta Smith based on last year's selection of the Ja'Marr Chase undersized Jaelen Reagor. Jason Peters might return, but that's obviously a very short term solution. returns, but he'll be 31 and the injuries are piling Sewell/Slater up. Either Sewell or Slater would be a justified selection. This is the most glaring need on defense and must be addressed in FA or early in the draft. Patrick Surtain and Caleb Farley are both Cornerback possibilities at No. 6. If the Eagles go a "best available player" route, Micah Parsons and Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah should be on their radar. Each Linebacker spot could use an upgrade, so both players will be fits.

Thoughts on potential targets They have Goff for two years (before his contract is easy to cut), so they don't need to force a QB selection. However, they also shouldn't Quarterbacks pass over someone they love just because Goff is there. If they decide to build around Goff in the short term, giving him another elite weapon will be tempting.

Thoughts on potential targets Bridgewater gives the Panthers an excuse not to draft a QB if they don't love their options. But they'll obviously take a long look at Wilson, Quarterbacks Fields, Lance and maybe even Jones. Curtis Samuel is likely to depart, opening up a need for a No. 2 option behind D.J. Moore. Chase and Smith are very different, but since Chase/Smith Moore is so versatile, either can fit in Carolina. This was arguably the worst unit on the team, and proved he's not capable of picking up the slack. Maybe Linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah or Micah Parsons could be the answer.

Upgrades at RT and C are probably the most Offensive Line obvious areas to upgrade this offseason. Someline like is an option at No. 11. If either of the two elite receivers on the board, the Giants need to consider giving Daniel Jones another top weapon to help his Chase/Smith development.

Thoughts on potential targets RT probably isn't an immediate need, but is likely in his final season in Minnesota. There's also a need at guard, so Darrisaw (or OT/OG maybe Alijah Vera-Tucker) could start their career at guard, before sliding to RT. The secondary is a mess, but it was completely overhauled last offseason. They probably want to stick with their young for Surtain/Farley another year, but Surtain/Farley may offer an upgrade they can't pass up if they fall.

There's plenty Pass-Rusher of options (Phillips, Ossai, Rousseau, etc) in the late first-round range. is a FA, but even if he returns he's not the ideal No. 3 option. This offense could really take off with someone like Jaylen Wide Receiver Waddle or added.

HC: OC: DC: -- Favors mix of Cover 3 and Cover 1

Thoughts on potential targets They've got plenty of speed, but they need a bigger WR who ideally is a more precise route runner who wins with more than speed. Amon- Big WR Ra St. Brown, Rashod Bateman, Terrace Marshall Jr. are possibilities. Pernell McPhee, Matt Judon and are all unrestricted free agents. Depending on who returns, this could become their top Pass-Rusher priority in the first round. Orlando Brown wants out and if the Ravens give in, it creates a massive hole at RT. Brown is an elite run blocker, and it would be a tough Right Tackle hole to fill. Teven Jenkins would be the most obvious fit as a replacement.

Thoughts on potential targets This is likely to be addressed in free agency, but Mac Jones is a possibility if they can't find another solution. Kyle Trask could be an option, Quarterback though he's more likely to fall to Day 2. The entire crew returns, but they could use an upgrade to pair with Thomas and Sanders. Someone with elite speed like Jaylen Waddle Wide Receiver could be a fun weapon for them. has regressed in consecutive years and enters his final contract year. Due to their man coverage tendency, Aaron Cornerback Robinson looks like the best fit for immediate production.

Thoughts on potential targets Cornerback Kevin King is a weak link in an otherwise strong secondary. Eric Stokes, Jaycee Horn, Aaron Robinson look like the best fits

They need someone to complement . Since Adams can do a bit of everything, they can probably add any type of WR. Jaylen Wide Receiver Waddle, Rashod Bateman, Amon-Ra St. Brown are possible targets in the late 1st round.

Thoughts on potential targets Only two starters remain under contract. Daryl Williams could be re-signed to keep their OTs intact, but the interior line need work. Wyatt Offensive Line Davis or Alijah Vera-Tucker would be great fits. Tre'Davious White can't do it alone. Levi Wallace is fine, but when your goal is to get past the Chiefs, they need to keep searching for an Cornerback upgrade. Eric Stokes, Jaycee Horn, Greg Newsome are all good late 1st-round targets.

Who calls the shots? HC and GM

HC: Andy Reid OC: DC: -- Plays a mix of all coverages, with a relatively high rate of man

Thoughts on potential targets Both guard spots could be upgraded and there's a good bet one of those players is added in the 1st-round. Wyatt Davis and Alijah Vera- Guard Tucker would both start immediately. It's amazing what Mahomes has done with a patchwork WR corps. This offense could reach another level with a better complement to Wide Receiver . Amon-Ra St. Brown, Rashod Bateman are ideal targets. Looking ahead to 2022, they're going to have tough decision to make on the offensive line. They could get a jump start on solving those Offensive Tackle problems by adding a future starter now. They've repeatedly ignore this position, so maybe it's just not an position they believe is worth the investment. But a good off-ball linebacker Linebacker would definitely improve the defense. Nick Bolton might be the best realistic option in Round 1.

Thoughts on potential targets Pass-Rusher Even if they re-sign Shaq Barrett, adding some youth/depth should be an offseason priority.

The Jones/Fournette duo was fine, but since they're all-in on chasing a ring again in 2021, it would make sense to add an elite RB prospect Running Back (Najee Harris or Travis Etienne) is a free agent. It would make sense to re-sign him, but he's 34, so it's going to be a short-term contract. Adding depth and Defensive Tackle his eventual replacement would be a wise plan.

HC: Pete Carroll OC: DC: Ken Norton -- Heavily favors Cover 3 with lowest rate of man coverage in league

Thoughts on potential targets Pass-Rusher Without a first-round pick, this is probably the position where they can most easily add an instant-impact player on Day 2.

Offensive Line It's always a need and they never adequately address it. But as Wilson gets older, it's going to be more important to improve his protection.

Thoughts on potential targets They could potentially upgrade RG. A long-term replacement for at LT should also be on their radar. And all-around Offensive Line depth on the line is also a concern. covers up a lot of flaws, but this pass-rush unit would significantly more dangerous if they had a weapon on the edge.
