player. 51. . C. LSU. Ethan Pocic. 37

After having no first round pick thanks to the Jared Goff trade (nice job with that one, Jeff Fisher) the Rams take someone who can protect their franchise quarterback up front. Ethan Pocic and Goff can grow together, and hopefully be part of the veteran core that takes a championship to Los Angeles. Coming out of the SEC, Pocic has lined up against some of the best talents college football can offer. He’s battle tested, and ready to pave the way for Todd Gurley.

. OT. Florida State. Roderick Johnson. 38. player. 30

Johnson isn’t the prospect this year that will be discussed heavily in early first-round talks, but he’s a surprisingly good tackle who could be a massive addition to a young offense attempting to build up a young core of talented playmakers. With that said, the Jets seem to be the match made in heaven for future growth of the offense, whoever the guy under center might be. Perhaps they attempt to rebuild the unit from the inside out, a strategy that has worked nicely for Oakland. By adding Johnson, the Jets immediately receive help for a playmaking unit that is filled with question marks.
