The Vikings will need to address the second level for Mike Zimmer with oft-injured aging Anthony Barr heading into free agency along with Nick Vigil. Lloyd is a strong rangy athlete who stands out making plays, with smarts and good instincts made for their zone scheme.
The Eagles are seeing age creep in for Fletcher Cox and Javon Hargrave, although have a big pass-rush season, has faded in other areas and carries a big contract.
Linderbaum, an intelligent rock of an interior blocker and a perfect long-term line leader, would be a great fit, too, as a major upgrade from Billy Price. The Giants would be smart to double up on can't-miss offensive lineman in the first round. Tyler Linderbaum, C, Iowa (6-3, 290 pounds) Hutchinson and Stingley would be an amazing combination to upgrade the pass defense. Stingley is a do-everything impact defensive back who can cover a lot of ground and different types of receivers. The Jets have gotten some good cornerback play in the first year Saleh's defense, but in a zone scheme that connects to Seattle's "Legion of Boom," they need a more dynamic playmaking presence. The Jets also play the 4-3 scheme to maximize Hutchinson getting to the QB and also playing the run well.ĭerek Stingley Jr, CB, LSU (6-1, 195 pounds) Hutchinson would be the ideal rebuilding block for Robert Saleh's defense, with his high effort, energy and level of production in the Big Ten should remind of the 49ers' star from Ohio State, Nick Bosa.
He has quickly refined his raw skills under Lane Kiffin.Īidan Hutchinson, EDGE, Michigan (6-6, 265 pounds) He is a dynamic athlete and confident runner who also shows aggressiveness with a big arm. They need to take a deep dive into whom they prefer most as a prospect, but it's a good chance to be Corral. The Texans need help in many areas but the ugly Deshaun Watson they need to think quarterback first above all else. Matt Corral, QB, Ole Miss (6-0, 200 pounds) MORE: Each team's worst-ever NFL Draft regret Cam Robinson is fading badly as a pending free agent, so Neal should straight right away at left tackle. Neal is a no-brainer to dominate as a pass protector and run blocker for many years to come. So will Travis Etienne when he returns from his foot injury, to boost his running game. Trevor Lawrence will need better offensive line support in Year 2. Evan Neal, OT, Alabama (6-7, 350 pounds).
But Thibodeaux, on top of the being the more athletic and disruptive pass rusher overall, is more versatile to thrive in Aaron Glenn's front seven. There will be some local push to go after Michigan superstar Aidan Hutchinson, a native of the state, but he's a better fit in a 4-3 front as a defensive end. Kayvon Thibodeaux, EDGE, Oregon (6-5, 258 pounds)
