2016 NFL Mock Draft: First round projections for each team

Oakland is in bad shape with the Raiders needing help all across the board. Donald Penn is among their better players, but the 33-year-old isn’t a long-term answer at left tackle, leading many experts to believe the front office will find someone new to protect the quarterback’s blind side.

The latest mock from Walter football has general manager Reggie McKenzie already leaning towards Laremy Tunsil of Ole’ Miss and after his performance against Alabama over the weekend, only off-field issues will prevent this young man from being one of the top-5 players taken next April.

Washington has announced that Robert Griffin isn’t the player they want leading their franchise, despite sending several draft choices to St Louis to nab the former Baylor star. With Kurt Cousins they have a youngster that makes too many mistakes and finding another signal caller is likely.

Depending on where in the first round they get to make their pick, many NFL experts are predicting the Redskins will take either Connor Cook of Michigan State, or possibly Jared Goff of Cal. Cook has more experience being a senior and has played much stiffer competition, but Goff has the ability to energize a team with his leadership mentality, making this one of the more interesting selections in the first round.

Despite upsetting Seattle in their opener, St Louis is still struggling to find a number one wide receiver. The Rams passed in the 2015 Draft on a big name wide out, but they must find the right player to team with Nick Foles if this franchise is going to become a legitimate contender in the league.
