Ed Oliver. 16. player. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. Defensive Lineman. Houston. 11

Buffalo Bills (From Cincinnati Bengals)

Ed Oliver polarizes a lot of people. Does he have the ability to be dominant at the NFL level? I believe so. Others see him as a college champion, but an NFL flop. For the Bills, replacing Kyle Williams will be no easy task, but drafting an athletic freak like Ed Oliver could be a defensive building block for years to come.

Scouting Report. Linebacker. Michigan. 49. Pick Analysis. Devin Bush Jr.. 12. player

Green Bay Packers

In the final years of Aaron Rodger’s Super Bowl window, adding talented defensive players will be a must for the Packers. Bush is an athletic player who not only seems to constantly be making plays, but can cover. To compete with the Vikings, Lions and Bears, defending against tight ends will be a must. This would be a great pick for the future of the Green Bay defense.

13. player. 59. Pick Analysis. EDGE. Michigan. Rashan Gary. Scouting Report

Miami Dolphins

While I don’t quite see why, Rashan Gary has gotten a lot of love from NFL people. Gary has tremendous upside but may take a while to develop. For the Dolphins who recently added Ryan Fitzpatrick, Gary would make sense for a developmental defensive star. With a pick like Gary, the Dolphins could allow themselves to look ahead to next year’s draft for the quarterback of the fuure.

Washington. Byron Murphy. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. 44. Cornerback. 14. player

Atlanta Falcons

The best cornerback is still on the board for the Falcons. Whether they prefer Murphy or Greedy Williams, it certainly would not hurt them to add help in the secondary. Murphy is likely the best overall corner in the draft and would immediately help the Falcons defense become a more functional unit. With a great offense, the Falcons will be looking for any way to improve their defense in 2019 and beyond.

Scouting Report. Quarterback. 15. Pick Analysis. Ohio State. Dwayne Haskins. player. 58

Washington Redskins

In Washington, Case Keenum is the starter for now. If any of the top four quarterbacks in this year’s draft are still on the board, they would likely take them. Haskins ends up falling right into the arms of Washington. The nature of Alex Smith‘s injury and Case Keenum‘s uncertainty will likely make Haskins their prime target at 15.
