12. New England Patriots (via CLE)

12. player. 47. It’s no secret that the New England Patriots could likely deal quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo. His value won’t get any higher than it is, and Tom Brady looks like he’s good for another few years. Odds are the competition for the 25-year old will be strong, but the Cleveland Browns are better equipped to make a deal than any other team with two 1st round picks. Garoppolo instantly gives them youth and experience under center while New England gets a top 15 pick. <p>The AFC won’t be happy when they see the longtime powerhouse pick up another potential stud for their defensive front in Solomon Thomas. The Stanford defensive end was a nightmare for opposing blockers in 2016, single-handedly ruining dreams for several teams. He’s big, strong and utterly relentless in pursuit of the quarterback. One of those players who is faster than he should be and just understands how to collapse the pocket. Bill Belichick will love him.</p>. DE. Stanford. Solomon Thomas
