Seven round mocks for eight more teams. Let’s go:
KANSAS CITY CHIEFS

What I liked: Travis Kelce isn’t getting any younger, Ben Sinnott has some upside and can help lighten the load on the future HOFer.
What I didn’t like: I used the Chiefs first rounder on WR Adonai Mitchell but then didn’t address the position again.
Synopsis: Kansas City has won back to back championships for two reasons, Patrick Mahomes and great draft classes. They’ll land some gems in this draft too.
LAS VEGAS RAIDERS

What I liked: Raiders were able to get their new franchise QB, Jayden Daniels, without selling the farm.
What I didn’t like: In a great class of receivers, Vegas didn’t land one.
Synopsis: It’s a decent class for the Raiders, but probably doesn’t narrow the gap with Kansas City at all.
MINNESOTA VIKINGS

What I liked: This is a good class for Minnesota, should go a long way in fixing their defense and filling other holes.
What I didn’t like: Depending on what happens with Kirk Cousins, the Vikings might want a better replacement than Sam Hartman.
Synopsis: Minnesota’s draft will be dictated by what happens with Cousins. If he walks, QB becomes the top priority.
NEW ORLEANS SAINTS

What I liked: T’Vondre Sweat is the best run stuffer in the draft and a good value at #45.
What I didn’t like: Would have liked to add a pass rusher for the Saints.
Synopsis: New Orleans has been in salary cap hell for years. They keep kicking the can down the road, but it’s time they start getting younger and cheaper. This draft is a start.
NEW YORK GIANTS

What I liked: I don’t see the Giants making a major splash at QB, but I do think they’ll do something. Michael Penix Jr is the type of move I expect.
What I didn’t like: I didn’t address the offensive line until Christian Jones at pick #184.
Synopsis: This is a strong class for the Giants, if Penix becomes the franchise QB this is an absolute home run of a draft.
PHILADELPHIA EAGLES

What I liked: Linebacker was a weak spot for the Eagles D, Payton Wilson & Tommy Eichenberg could both play significant roles.
What I didn’t like: Didn’t draft a center, but maybe they already have Jason Kelce’s replacement on the roster.
Synopsis: Philly’s collapse down the stretch was epic and inexplicable. This draft does well to address the secondary and linebacker corps, two of the biggest problem areas on defense.
MIAMI DOLPHINS

What I liked: The Dolphins need to bolster their offensive line, I used their first two picks to do that.
What I didn’t like: Miami lost their top two pass rushers to devastating injuries last season, how or when they return is a big question mark for 2024, yet I did nothing to address that in this draft.
Synopsis: At times, the Dolphins seemed like a legitimate contender in 2023, but injuries caught up with them. Building depth is key, but they simply lack the picks to do much.
LOS ANGELES CHARGERS

What I liked: This is a strong draft for the Chargers, Brock Bowers is an especially good fit.
What I didn’t like: Khalil Mack showed no signs of age in 2023, but Joey Bosa can’t seem to stay healthy. Another edge rusher would have been nice.
Synopsis: As stated before, this is a strong first draft for Jim Harbaugh. The addition of Bowers, Blake Corum and even Brenden Rice could make this offense unstoppable.
