...and Quinn Ewers isn't one of them.

2. Cleveland Browns: Kelvin Banks Jr., OT, Texas

We’ll see what happens with the Browns’ QB situation this offseason. It’s important to remember there will be a larger-than-normal market for younger starting QBs already on their second teams. Quarterback-needy teams don’t necessarily have to draft that position this high if there are better options elsewhere — and there absolutely should be.

Banks has had an outstanding start this season and would fill a need in Cleveland immediately.

11. Denver Broncos: Isaiah Bond, WR, Texas

It’ll always be hard for me to guess that someone will be fast enough to break Xavier Worthy’s combine 40 record, especially because that run just happened in February and it was wild. However, if anyone’s going to come close, it’ll be Worthy’s replacement at Texas. Bond’s speed and burst are elite, and he’s also bigger than Worthy.

27. San Francisco 49ers: Jahdae Barron, CB, Texas

Corner is going to be on the list for the 49ers this offseason and, thankfully for them, this is shaping up to be a great CB class. Barron has range to do all sorts of stuff in the defensive backfield. He’s a very exciting draft prospect.
