Kevin Dodd has been the "other" pass rusher across from Shaq Lawson, however, he is still very productive, and appears to have more "NFL" traits. While Stanley probably won't provide an immediate fix, he should help to solidify the left side of their line and can mature into a very good left tackle. The Dolphins are still trying to rebuild an offensive line that was blown up by the bullying scandal years ago. If Kelly wants to run a similar style of defense, Buckner and Armstead would once again make an imposing set of bookends. Buckner fits the defensive personnel (such as it is) already in San Francisco. He recruited Buckner and paired him with Arik Armstead in Oregon, and now he gets to do the same thing again. In his lone attempt at being a GM in Philadelphia, Chip Kelly confirmed for the world that he loves his Ducks. Jack is a phenomenal athlete who's range in conjunction with CJ Mosley could eventually let Baltimore adopt something like the Denver Broncos defense, with a pair of rangy linebackers allowing for five-man rushes. Ray Lewis and Ed Reed have retired, Haloti Ngata was traded to the Lions, Terrell Suggs is aging, and a pair of second-round linebacker busts in Courtney Upshaw and Arthur Brown have severely hampered the Ravens' ability to reload. The once feared Baltimore defense is disintegrating before our eyes. He doesn't have Ramsey's All-World athleticism, but he is a feisty run defender with the feet, hips, and instincts to be the cover corner Jacksonville needs. And that's okay because Hargreaves is a good consolation prize. They're really very not good, and the organization is probably hoping for Ramsey to fall this far, but it didn't happen. Taking him to learn behind Romo is an ideal plan, and he presents the possibility of winning a game if (when) Tony goes down (again). Wentz is a high-upside QB who did nothing but dominate the FCS. With Romo getting offseason surgery to have a metal plate installed to try and keep his collar bone from breaking again, it's time to start thinking about the future. But they didn't win a game without Tony Romo. Yes, Myles Jack, Noah Spence, and Jaylon Smith are, or could be fantastic players. Honestly, this is a reach to me, but with Ramsey off the board (reportedly the Cowboys' top target as of this writing) as well as Bosa, this is their best option. They could go defensive line here, but there will be potentially great linemen available in the second, there won't be a DB like Ramsey. Ramsey has range, cover ability and ball skills. A good (great) safety can be transformative for a defense, and with Weddle likely out in San Diego, that is a big hole to fill. Is Ramesy a corner? Is he a safety? Honestly, I like him best at safety, but his versatility is one of his strong points. Third, their defense needs shoring up, and Bosa is one of the top two all-around defenders in this draft. There isn't an Andrew Luck, Jameis Winston, or Marcus Mariota to be found.
Second, none of the quarterbacks in this draft are franchise saviors.

First, the Browns very well could address this need in free agency before the draft.
There are three reasons why this isn't a quarterback. This is about protecting Marcus Mariota, but we're not going to pretend that a rookie tackle is going to solve their woes, they always struggle, but Tunsil's upside is impossible to ignore. He is the top tackle in this draft, and probably by a big enough margin over whoever would be available at the top of the second round to warrant this pick. There are a few "Blue Chip" players in this draft, and Tunsil offers the best combination of value and need. So, let's take this last chance to do a mock draft before everything changes.
As of now, we have a pretty good grasp on what the teams' needs are, for now. Draft boards and projections all around the NFL are about to get shaken up with the NFL Scouting Combine ongoing.
