NFL two-round mock draft: March 11, 2019

Reports have surfaced that the Cardinals plan to take the Heisman Trophy winner with the first overall pick, backing up past praise for Murray by new Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury. The Heisman Trophy winner is maligned for his lack of size but offers two-dimensional ability that should be exciting in Kingsbury's offense.

Bosa didn't blow the combine away with his test results, but he did enough to hold serve after returning from injury. The 49ers have invested heavily in the defensive line in recent drafts, but the value at No. 2 is in using the pick on another defensive lineman.

Williams had a great combine, including an outstanding 4.83-second 40 time. He's worthy of a top five pick after recording eight sacks and 71 tackles in his breakout sophomore season at Alabama.

The Raiders are desperately in need of pass rush help after recording only 13 sacks last season, and Allen has the upside to be the No. 1 overall pick in many years. He had a strong combine, including a 4.23 second shuttle, second best among edge rushers. Oakland should be in a position to take the best player available regardless of the position.

White was already considered the top linebacker prospect available and made further headlines when he ran a blazing 4.42 second 40 at the combine. He recorded a total of 256 tackles over the last two seasons.

Aside from a relatively slow 40 time, Haskins didn't do anything to hurt his stock at the combine. Eli Manning is expected to remain the Giants starter next season, but Haskins should be able to develop behind him.

Jacksonville needs an offensive tackle after cutting Jermey Parnell, and the offensive line should be a top priority to protect soon-to-be starter Nick Foles. Taylor is emerging as the top prospect at the position.

Sweat was the talk of Senior Bowl practice, and he helped his stock even more at the combine after running an electric 4.41 second 40-yard dash. Detroit doesn't look like it will bring back Ezekiel Ansah, so it's in the market for a replacement. Sweat had 22.5 sacks over the last two seasons.

Metcalf was the talk of the combine after running a 4.33 second 40-yard dash, tying for the wideout lead with 27 bench reps and showing off a 40.5 inch vertical. However, not all of his test results were great. There should be concern about Metcalf's ability to get separation on shorter routes. He had the third-slowest time in the three cone and the fourth-slowest time in the shuttle. After Buffalo's efforts to acquire Antonio Brown failed last week, the Bills remain in the market for a top wideout.

Denver isn't necessarily out of the market for a quarterback after acquiring Joe Flacco, but it does make taking one in the first round less likely. Williams is clearly the best cornerback on the board and had an excellent combine, running a 4.37 second 40-yard dash.

Right tackle remains a major need for the Bengals, along with their bevy of needs on defense. While Williams didn't have a spectacular combine, his tape should put him in the top 20 picks.

Green Bay really needs help up front, and Gary would be a great value if he falls this far. He had an excellent combine, including a 4.58 second 40 time and 38-inch vertical that led all defensive linemen. Gary could help immediately; he had nine sacks in 22 games over the last two seasons.

Miami is in need of a quarterback this year, and there isn't much to be had in free agency. Lock had a nice combine, and while Denver has been connected to him for months, it remains to be seen if John Elway opts for a quarterback in the first round after trading for Joe Flacco. There are questions about Lock's accuracy, but he throws a beautiful deep ball.

Vic Beasley's future with the Falcons is still somewhat up in the air, and they need help rushing the passer in any case. Ferrell's production has improved in every season at Clemson, culminating with 11.5 sacks last year, and he would easily be a top 10 pick in draft classes thinner in pass rushers.

Washington acquired Case Keenum from Denver this week, at least giving them a stopgap while Alex Smith recovers from a major leg injury. Hockenson had a good combine with a 4.70 second 40 time and 37.5-inch vertical jump. Jordan Reed's future with Washington is still somewhat up in the air after more injuries last season.

Carolina really needs help in the pass rush, and the opportunity to get Oliver at No. 16 would be a coup. Oliver nursed a knee injury during last season but looked healthy at the combine with 32 bench reps (tied for third-best among defensive linemen) and a 120-inch broad jump.

Dillard had a nice combine, including a sub-5.0 second 40 time. Cleveland is in need of help along the offensive line, especially after trading Kevin Zeitler last week.

A huge prospect with versatility, Ford's stock has risen since the end of the 2018 season. Ford cut short his combine bench session due to an injury, but that shouldn't significantly hurt his stock as one of the most versatile linemen available.

Head coach Mike Vrabel is craving an edge pass rusher. Burns had a great combine weekend with a 4.53 second 40-yard dash and a 129-inch broad jump. He had 23 sacks in three seasons for the Seminoles.

Pittsburgh is in the market for cornerback help with Artie Burns' disappointing development. A productive college player, Baker showed adequate speed with a 4.52-second 40 time.

Wilkins looks like a safe defensive tackle and is a good fit for a team that needs help in that area, as the Seahawks do currently. He had 16 sacks in four seasons at Clemson.

Baltimore needs wideout help, with John Brown headed toward free agency and Michael Crabtree being released by the team. Brown didn't work out at the combine following foot surgery, but it might not hurt his stock. He averaged 18.3 yards per reception in two seasons at Oklahoma and could be an immediate impact player.

Houston is set to lose depth at cornerback if Kareem Jackson departs, along with the release of former first rounder Kevin Johnson. Murphy is coming off a productive season for the Huskies, with four picks and 58 tackles.

Bush lacks the desired height at 5-foot-11, but he more than makes up for it with his athleticism. He ran a 4.43 second 40-yard dash with a 40.5 inch vertical at the combine, both elite marks that should erase any concerns. With so many holes to fill, the Raiders are in a position to take the best player available.

Jacobs didn't participate in the drills at the combine due to a groin injury, but his versatility and speed make him a great fit for several teams picking late in the first round. He has limited tread on his tires with only 299 touches in his career and is a nice fit for Doug Pederson's offense.

The other wideout at Ole Miss, Brown had more than 1,200 yards receiving in consecutive seasons. Indy needs more wide receiver weapons behind T.Y. Hilton, and Brown is capable of helping immediately. He held his own at the combine with a sub-4.50 second 40 time.

The stout Lawrence will immediately become one of the biggest defensive linemen in the NFL and should do a nice job generating double teams for a long time. There's been plenty of attention paid to Oakland's inability to get to the quarterback, but its run defense isn't very good, either.

Tillery did well at the combine despite a shoulder injury that he had surgery for last week. He has excellent size at 6-foot-7 and recorded seven sacks last season.

Regardless of whether the Chiefs are able to re-sign Steven Nelson, they could be in the market for a cornerback. Mullen was Clemson's best at that position over the last two seasons and has the size (6-foot-2) that the Chiefs look for in press corners. He showed more than adequate speed after running a 4.46 second 40-yard dash at the combine.

Pass rushing help remains Green Bay's No. 1 need, and even if the Packers are able to address the front seven early, we shouldn't rule out the team using its second first-rounder on another lineman. Allen had 100 tackles in his junior season before regressing to 61 tackles last season, but he's established himself as a solid edge player.

Bradbury put himself squarely in first-round territory with an epic combine performance. He finished third among all offensive linemen with a 4.92 second 40-yard dash, had 34 bench reps and led the group with a 7.41 second three cone. The Rams need a new center after declining John Sullivan's option.

Rob Gronkowski still hasn't announced his plans for 2019, but there's a fair possibility he will retire. Fant's stock is on the rise after one of the most impressive combines from a tight end in years. He led all tight ends in the 40-yard dash (4.50 seconds), vertical jump (39.5 inches), broad jump (10 feet, 7 inches) and three-cone (6.81 seconds). He has the college production, to boot, with 18 touchdowns over the last two seasons.

Arizona's offensive line was mauled last year, as Josh Rosen can attest. The Cardinals must address the line via the draft and free agency, and it's likely they'll use at least one early pick to help after taking Kyler Murray first overall. Risner is a solid a versatile line prospect.

The Colts have a need at safety with Clayton Geathers' pending free agency. A great playmaker for the Bulldogs last season, Abram had 99 tackles, three sacks and two picks.

Harry's combine performance was overshadowed by that of D.K. Metcalf, but it was still strong for his size (6-foot-2, 228 pounds) with a 4.53-second 40 and a 38.5 inch vertical. The college production is also there, with consecutive 1,000 yard seasons. Even after acquiring Antonio Brown, the Raiders could use more talent at the wide receiver position.

Campbell helped himself at the combine as much as any player, tying for the 40-time lead among wideouts this year with a time of 4.31 seconds. He also had an outstanding senior season, with 90 receptions for 1,063 yards and 12 touchdowns. 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan loves speedy wideouts, and Campbell certainly fits the bill.

The Giants have moved on from Landon Collins, leaving a major need at safety. The free agent safety market is deep, but if the Giants prefer to go younger, Rapp is a true playmaking prospect. He had 58 tackles, four sacks and two picks for the Huskies last season.

Jacksonville's wideouts disappointed last season after Marqise Lee was injured, and it will be in the market for offensive weapons. Arcega-Whiteside stands at 6-foot-3 and had a staggering 28 touchdowns in three seasons at Stanford.

Simmons could miss all of next season after tearing his ACL while preparing for the combine, but he was a potential top 20 pick before the injury. While the Bucs are now expected to keep Gerald McCoy, Simmons would be a great fit to succeed him in 2020.

Jerry Hughes is one of the league's best pass rushers, but he's also on the wrong side of 30. Ferguson is the all-time sacks leader in college but was barred from working out in the combine due to a past arrest. He would be a bargain in the second round in a deep defensive line class.

Denver could still be in the market for a quarterback in the draft despite acquiring Joe Flacco from Baltimore. Jones never put up huge numbers at Duke but was productive over his last three seasons as a starter. He could be a good fit to sit one year behind Flacco.

Cincinnati desperately needs linebacker help, with Vontaze Burfict's future up in the air. Wilson was a productive linebacker for the Crimson Tide and also a playmaker with six picks in the last two seasons.

Detroit has prioritized the tight end position, an area in which the Lions struggled last year after losing Eric Ebron. The athletic Smith didn't match the Iowa duo of Noah Fant and T.J. Hockenson at the combine, but he's still a talented receiver who had 710 yards and seven touchdowns last year.

An excellent contributor at BC over the last two seasons, Lindstrom is considered a top guard prospect in this year's pool. The Packers could address their offensive line early in the draft with Aaron Rodgers continuing to take big hits.

The Falcons released Robert Alford earlier this offseason and should be in the market for more secondary depth. Oruwariye is a huge cornerback and coming off a breakout season with 50 tackles and three interceptions.

The reports from the combine for Polite have been less than stellar, likely pushing him out of the first round. Still, he's a capable pass rusher after recording 11 sacks last year, and Washington will need a replacement if Preston Smith leaves in free agency.

Carolina has used early picks on wideouts in each of the last two seasons but could be in the market again with Devin Funchess unlikely to return. Samuel had some injuries in college, but he was also a spark for the Gamecocks, particularly last season with 11 touchdowns. He's an interesting kick returner, as well.

Miami missed Ndamukong Suh's presence last year and could also move on from Cameron Wake. Jones had a great junior season with 8.5 sacks and would be an excellent second-round value.

The athletic Ya-Sin has faced limited top talent in college, but his body and athleticism make him one of the more interesting prospects in this draft for scouts. At 6-foot-2, his profile seems perfect for Browns GM John Dorsey, as the Browns continue to build a talented and young defense.

Isabella is flying up draft boards after a blazing 40-yard dash at the combine, and he has the college production to back it up at UMass with 102 receptions for 1,698 yards and 13 scores last year. His lack of size is a concern, but Isabella would profile as a great slot wide receiver with what's already an impressive pairing of Stefon Diggs and Adam Thielen.

Corey Davis is developing nicely for the Titans, but they still need more receiver help. A productive player at NC State with consecutive 1,000-yard seasons, Harmon also has ample size at 6-foot-3.

Little has had some unfavorable reports  but still has good size and athleticism. Steelers right tackle Marcus Gilbert was traded to Arizona on Friday, so the team is in the market for a replacement.

With Ronald Darby likely to depart in free agency, the Eagles could use some cornerback help. Layne had a solid combine and is one of the biggest corners in the draft at 6-foot-3. He had 72 tackles for the Spartans last season.

Houston has seemingly always been in need of offensive line help in recent seasons, and that's no different going into 2019. McGary has more than adequate size at 6-foot-8 and got plenty of playing time at Washington.

Lamar Miller is coming off a Pro Bowl appearance, but his play has been up and down since joining the Texans in 2016. On top of that, former third-round pick D'Onta Foreman never got over the hump after a torn Achilles, so his football future could be in doubt. Montgomery didn't show great speed at the combine but is a potential three-down back who had more than 1,300 yards from scrimmage in consecutive seasons at Iowa State.

New England has regularly taken developmental quarterbacks in recent seasons, and that could be a possibility again this year. Grier has been a winner at Florida and West Virginia during his career and also highly accurate, completing nearly 66 percent of his passes.

Philadelphia traded Michael Bennett, so the Eagles could be in the market for an edge rusher yet again. Ximines is an intriguing prospect with 32.5 sacks over the last four seasons.

Jerry Jones has never seen a talented pass rusher he didn't like, and the Cowboys are in need of more youth along the front after losing David Irving and franchising DeMarcus Lawrence for the second straight year. Collier was terrific for the Horned Frogs last season, with 11.5 tackles for loss and six sacks in 11 games.

Potentially losing Pierre Desir in free agency, the Colts could look to the draft for help. Johnson was inconsistent in college but is a scouting marvel with great athleticism at 6-foot-3.

The Chargers have an excellent pair of corners in Casey Hayward and Desmond King but could use more depth. Williams shows potential after a great junior season, recording 61 tackles and four picks at 6-foot-3. 

Thompson had a breakout 2018 season at Alabama with 78 tackles and two picks as one of the defense's top playmakers. With Eric Berry's health up in the year and Daniel Sorensen a potential cut candidate, safety is an area of need for the Chiefs.

There are questions about Butler's hands, but he's physically gifted at 6-foot-6. He averaged 22.0 yards per reception last season and had 16 touchdowns over the last two seasons. Sean Payton and Drew Brees could be salivating at the possibilities.

The Chiefs are set to lose starting center Mitch Morse in free agency, but McCoy is a formidable replacement. It's possible the Chiefs will prefer to just go with Austin Reiter, who they re-signed to a team-friendly deal last year after filling in for Morse.

New England has one of the older secondaries in the league, and the second day of the draft is likely the sweet spot to find values in that area. There are questions about Adderley because he's coming from a small school and didn't participate in the combine drills, but he shows plenty of upside.
