Mocks 1 and 2 were no trades, but had a quarterback sliding to the Bills picks at 22, and in another mock at 12. The likelihood of that happening as the NFL Draft approaches seems to be dropping.

1. Cleveland Browns - Sam Darnold, QB, USC
Darnold has the highest upside when it comes to QBs and the Browns have shown interest. Let’s not out-think the room here.

2. New York Giants - Saquon Barkley, RB, Penn State
Saquon Barkley is the best player in the draft and with a renewed confidence in Eli Manning, the Giants gladly walk away with the best player on their board.

3. New York Jets - Josh Allen, QB, Wyoming
The #1 boom or bust player in this draft goes to the Jets who traded up with Indy to get their guy. Allen has all the arm in the world, looks like your video game-created QB, but needs to be polished.

4. Cleveland Browns - Bradley Chubb, DE, NC State
Browns were hoping Barkley would be here to add to their offense, but getting another destructive force on defense to go with Myles Garrett looks pretty good too.

5. Buffalo Bills - Josh Rosen, QB, UCLA (TRADE WITH DENVER BRONCOS)
The future starts now for the Bills as they trade 12/22/53/96 to the Broncos for the 5th pick in the draft and select Josh Rosen. Rosen is the most polished passer in this draft and should have a shot to start right away in Orchard Park. He also has the smarts and moxy that McDermott and Beane love in their players. Buckle up BillsMafia, we start finding out if the pain of the last two decades was worth it in 2018.

6. Indianapolis Colts - Quenton Nelson, G, Notre Dame

7. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Minkah Fitzpatrick, DB, Alabama
Bucs would love to see Barkley or Chubb somehow fall to No. 7, but that isn't going to happen, so they fill another need and get the best defensive back in the draft in All-American Minkah Fitzpatrick.

8. Miami Dolphins - Baker Mayfield, QB, Oklahoma (TRADE WITH CHICAGO BEARS)
Dolphins address their QB of the future by moving 11/42/future 4th to the Bears. Despite his size, Mayfield has the arm and accuracy to excel in the NFL. The Heisman winner can throw to all levels and hit on all routes.

9. San Francisco 49ers - Denzel Ward, DB, Ohio State
The 49ers need defensive help and they get the best defensive back in the draft at No. 9 in All-American corner Denzel Ward.

10. Oakland Raiders - Roquan Smith, LB, Georgia
The Raiders need LB help is the worst way and the best fix is Smith. He has the speed and athleticism to cover on 3rd downs and the size and strength to play the run. Put him in a lineup with Khalil Mack and watch the fireworks.
