The NFL Scouting Combine is in the books and there's a number of players who really helped their stock last week in Indianapolis. Conversely, there were some players who teams might have left Indy having to do some more homework on.
Detroit doesn't have a lot of pressing needs — that's a compliment to GM Brad Holmes and his staff's roster-building efforts over the last four years — but Detroit could stand to add talent and depth in the trenches and depth at receiver and defensive back, depending on what happens in free agency.
Here's my second prediction with Mock Draft 2.0 coming out of the Combine. Feel free to disagree.
1. Tennessee (3-14)
Tennessee is rumored to be hosting edge rusher Abdul Carter, quarterback Cam Ward, receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter and quarterback Shedeur Sanders post-Combine as they narrow down their potential choice.
Pick: Edge Abdul Carter, Penn State. Get the best pure pass rusher in the draft. Carter had 12.0 sacks and 24 tackles for loss this past season and would instantly help a Tennessee pass rush that ranked 29th in sacks (32) last season.
2. Cleveland (3-14)
I had Hunter here in my Mock 1.0, but I left Indianapolis thinking there's a lot of pressure on the Browns to win now and an investment in a young quarterback to put in Kevin Stefanski's scheme makes sense for both the present and future.
Pick: QB Cam Ward, Miami. Ward is a playmaker with a strong, accurate arm, throwing 39 touchdowns this past season to only seven interceptions. Jayden Daniels proved last year a young quarterback can have success right away if the system fits.
3. New York Giants (3-14)
It's time the Giants find their next quarterback. New York threw just 15 touchdown passes in 2024, the lowest in the NFL, and only two more than the 13 interceptions they threw.
Pick: QB Shedeur Sanders, Colorado. Sanders trailed only Ward in touchdown passes (37) and was fourth in the FBS in passing yards (4,134). He's one of the more accurate and pure passers to come out of college in a while and that seems like a good fit for the scheme in New York.
4. New England (4-13)
It makes sense here for the Patriots to opt to protect the blindside of last year's big investment — quarterback Drake Maye — with a tackle prospect. I have a new favorite tackle prospect coming out of Indy, too, but giving Maye a weapon on the outside and adding the most versatile player in the draft also makes sense.
Pick: WR/CB Travis Hunter, Colorado. The Heisman Trophy winner is a fluid and explosive receiver and was a much-improved cornerback in 2024. It's not often a team gets a chance to select a two-way star like this.
5. Jacksonville (4-13)
The Jaguars ranked 28th in points allowed and 31st in total defense this past season. The best way to immediately improve a defense is upfront closest to the football.
Pick: DT Mason Graham, Michigan. Graham is one of the top three players in the class, in my opinion, and is good as both an interior pass rusher and run stuffer. He didn't wow at the Combine from a measurables perspective, but the tape doesn't lie with Graham.

6. Las Vegas (4-13)
My guess is the Raiders go the veteran free agent route at quarterback and getting another young weapon to go along with Brock Bowers would be a quarterback's best friend.
Pick: RB Ashton Jeanty, Boise State. Jeanty has all the tools to come in right away and make a big impact. His elite vision, power and speed will be a great fit in Chip Kelly's offense.
7. New York Jets (5-12)
New head coach Aaron Glenn is coming from a team in Detroit that's strength and identity starts upfront along the offensive line. Detroit's first pick in Glenn's first draft on the Lions' staff was Penei Sewell and that set the tone for what the Lions would become.
Pick: IOL Armand Membou, Missouri. Membou had a heck of a Combine and his versatility and athleticism is intriguing. He's only 20 years old and could be an anchor for the next decade or so.
8. Carolina (5-12)
After being benched for a brief time, quarterback Bryce Young came back and showed Panthers brass they can build around him. Now it's time to start adding weapons.
Pick: WR Tetairoa McMillan, Arizona. A tall, rangy receiver with 26 touchdowns over the last three years to go along with 3,423 receiving yards and a 16.1-yard average per reception.
9. New Orleans (5-12)
The Saints could use help on the edge, especially if Chase Young moves on in free agency. They've already declined the fifth-year option for Payton Turner.
Pick: Edge Shemar Stewart, Texas A&M. Sure, the lack of production is a bit concerning, but he does affect the backfield a bunch. Stewart (6-foot-5, 267) had an impressive combine with a 1.58-second 10-yard split and a 4.59-second 40-yard dash.
10. Chicago (5-12)
I had Chicago going guard here in my first Mock but the trades for two veteran guards this week — Jonah Jackson and Joe Thuney — fill that need. Like Glenn, Johnson knows the value of having a stout offensive line. Next, he adds a young tackle. No one had less time to throw the football last season than No. 1 overall pick Caleb Williams.
Pick: OT Will Campbell, LSU. Arguably the top pure tackle prospect in the class is a perfect fit and terrific value here at No. 10.
11. San Francisco (6-11)
I think tackle is a possibility here even with Trent Williams, 37, returning in 2025. But adding a chess piece defensively that absolutely killed the Combine fits GM John Lynch and the 49ers.
Pick: S Nick Emmanwori, South Carolina. At 6-3, 220, his 4.38-second 40-yard dash, 43-inch vertical and 11-foot-6-inch broad jump is freakish and could make him a fun versatile piece on a good defense.
12. Dallas (7-10)
Jeanty would have been a perfect fit here, but with him already off the board, Dallas looks to give Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb another reliable playmaker.
Pick: TE Tyler Warren, Penn State. Warren and veteran Jake Ferguson would give opponents a lot to think about in the middle of the field with Lamb being one of the best outside weapons in football.
13. Miami (8-9)
The most important thing in Miami is keeping quarterback Tua Tagovailoa upright and throwing touchdowns.
Pick: IOL Tyler Booker, Alabama. Booker fits all the traits of a player who can step in right away and be an impact player in this league for a decade.
14. Indianapolis (8-9)
The Colts need to find out if Anthony Richardson really is the guy at quarterback. Getting him a top tight end prospect as a security blanket over the middle makes a lot of sense.
Pick: TE Colston Loveland, Michigan. Loveland's a big target with a high football IQ for finding open space within a defense. He's terrific after the catch and would be a great fit for a Colts offense that got 39 receptions from the tight end position in 2024.
15. Atlanta (8-9)
Atlanta finished 31st in the NFL in sacks (31) last year and hasn't had a player reach double-digit sacks since Vic Beasley Jr. in 2016.
Pick: Edge/LB Jalon Walker, Georgia. Teams are looking to utilize hybrid linebackers who can rush and play in space. Walker also has terrific leadership intangibles, too.
16. Arizona (8-9)
Arizona was one of nine teams this past season to record single-digit interceptions.
Pick: CB Jahdae Barron, Texas. Barron had a terrific Combine. His versatile athletic traits and ball production — five interceptions this past season for the Longhorns with 11 passes defended — is what teams are looking for in the secondary.
17. Cincinnati (9-8)
After putting the franchise tag on wide receiver Tee Higgins, Cincinnati should look to bolster a defense that ranked in the bottom 10 in the NFL in sacks (36), even with Trey Hendrickson and his 17.5 sacks last season.
Pick: Edge Mykel Williams, Georgia. Williams has rare length and athletic traits that could be a great fit opposite Hendrickson.
18. Seattle (10-7)
Quarterback Geno Smith is entering the final year of his contract, but Seattle's most pressing need is adding young talent upfront along the offensive line.
Pick: OT Kelvin Banks Jr., Texas. There's some versatility to Banks' game where maybe he helps right away at guard and then moves outside.
19. Tampa Bay (10-7)
The Bucs need a little more juice on the edge of their defense with their two leading sackers — Calijah Kancey (7.5) and Vita Vea (7.0) — playing along the interior.
Pick: Edge James Pearce Jr., Tennessee. Pearce had a great Combine that verified his first step and speed of the edge are legit. He had 7.5 sacks this season and there's a ton of upside in Pearce's game.
20. Denver (10-7)
The Broncos need to continue to put pieces around emerging young quarterback Bo Nix.
Pick: WR Matthew Golden, Texas. Golden was the fastest receiver at the Combine (4.29) and that gives Nix and head coach Sean Payton a fun weapon to add to their offense.
21. Pittsburgh (10-7)
A receiver certainly makes sense here, but potentially getting the best cornerback in the draft in the 20's seems like a very Pittsburgh Steelers savvy move.
Pick: CB Will Johnson, Michigan. Johnson has terrific size (6-2, 202) and movement skills with a consistent track record of production. After sitting out the Combine, will he be able to run the 40 at Michigan's Pro Day later this month? If not, he could drop some, but I still view him as one of the best cornerbacks in the class.
22. Los Angeles Chargers (11-6)
Khalil Mack is headed toward free agency while Joey Bosa and Bud Dupree are only under contract through 2025.
Pick: Edge Mike Green, Marshall. Green (6-4, 248) is a gifted pass rusher, who recorded 17 sacks and three forced fumbles last season for the Thundering Herd.
23. Green Bay (11-6)
The Packers could use help at cornerback and along their defensive line. Jaire Alexander has struggled to stay healthy, and Eric Stokes is headed for free agency.
Pick: CB Azareye'h Thomas, Florida State. Thomas has terrific length (6-2, 198), and though he has to sharpen his technique, he's got all the tools to be a quality starter in the NFL. The Packers like big, physical corners.
24. Minnesota (14-3)
I had them going defensive tackle in my first Mock but getting a tackle/guard combo player gives Kevin O'Connell's offense some options upfront moving forward.
Pick: OT Josh Simmons, Ohio State. The medicals from the Combine will be important evaluator for him after he suffered a season-ending knee injury in October. When healthy, he's got the traits to be a quality starting tackle in the NFL.
25. Houston (10-7)
The Texans have some uncertainty at the wide receiver position with Tank Dell's injury and Stefon Diggs coming off an ACL injury and headed to free agency. Offensive line makes sense here, too, but I have them adding a weapon outside.
Pick: WR Luther Burden III, Missouri. Burden has terrific run-after-catch skills to go along with his 4.41 speed at the Combine as he recorded 21 touchdowns for the Tigers over the last three seasons.

26. Los Angeles Rams (10-7)
With tackles Alaric Jackson and Joe Noteboom headed for free agency, the Rams need help at both tackle and potentially guard.
Pick: IOL Donovan Jackson, Ohio State. Jackson can be a dominant NFL guard early and showed last year filling in at left tackle for the Buckeyes he's more than capable there. Teams love that kind of versatility upfront.
27. Baltimore (12-5)
The Ravens love versatile pieces along their front seven on defense.
Pick: LB Jihaad Campbell, Alabama. I was upset with myself mocking Campbell here because he's one of my favorite prospects in the draft and would love for him to land in Detroit. But Baltimore is so good getting the best out of versatile hybrid pieces along their front seven and Campbell would be a great fit with 119 tackles (55 solo) and five sacks this past season.
28. Detroit (15-2)
Depending on what happens in free agency, the Lions could use help at both D-line spots, interior offensive line, cornerback and potentially the SAM linebacker spot.
Getting Aidan Hutchinson back next season will be huge for this defense, but they need to continue to add talent and depth upfront with Alim McNeill (ACL) potentially not ready to begin the year and Za’Darius Smith and DJ Reader only under contract through 2025.
Pick: DT Derrick Harmon, Oregon. The Detroit native led all FBS defensive tackles in pressures (55) and recorded five sacks and two forced fumbles. He was one of only two defensive tackles weighing more than 300 pounds to run under five seconds in the 40-yard dash at the Combine. At 6-foot-4 ½ and 313 pounds, he's got unique traits. McNeill and him could be a nice duo inside for a long term in Detroit.
Boston College's Donovan Ezeiruaku could also be interesting as a SAM/Edge prospect here, too.
29. Washington (12-5)
Investing in quarterback Jayden Daniels' safety and security moving forward seems wise.
Pick: OT Josh Conerly Jr., Oregon. Conerly gave up two sacks in three years at Oregon and has all the tools to be a quality starter.
30. Buffalo (13-4)
The Bills have a number of veteran defensive linemen headed for free agency so look for Buffalo to bolster their numbers inside.
Pick: DT Kenneth Grant, Michigan. Grant is a massive space eater (6-3, 339) that can anchor the middle of Buffalo's defensive front and immediately improve a rush defense that let them down in the playoffs.
31. Kansas City (15-2)
Offensive line is certainly an option here given what happened in the Super Bowl, but Kansas City could look to free agency for immediate help there. That Chiefs pass rush ranked in the bottom half of the NFL.
Pick: Edge Donovan Ezeiruaku, Boston College. He's got terrific agility and quickness (6.94 seconds in three cone at Combine) to go along 34-inch arms and the 16.5 sacks he recorded last season.
32. Philadelphia (14-3)
With Milton Williams headed toward free agency, adding another defensive lineman to the rotation late in the first round makes sense. The Eagles love building their defensive front through the draft.
Pick: DT Walter Nolen, Ole Miss. Nolen can be a disrupter in both the run and pass games, recording 6.5 sacks from the interior of the Rebels' defensive line this past season.
