9. Buffalo Bills – Rashan Gary, DE, Michigan

Rashan Gary is one of the most intriguing prospects in the draft. He is a former No. 1 overall recruit coming out of Paramus Catholic in New Jersey and arrived at Michigan with a ton of hype. Unfortunately for Gary, he never quite lived up to the billing. He only had 3.5 sacks as a junior and 9.5 for his three-year career.

Plus, he’s playing through a labral tear that will require surgery. He has the traits that suggest he should be a force on the field, but the production hasn’t been there. Nevertheless, the Bills will be convinced they can translate his potential to production.

10. Denver Broncos – Drew Lock, QB, Missouri

Drew Lock has been mocked to the Denver Broncos for weeks and despite the trade for Joe Flacco, that’s not nearly enough to move them off this projection. Lock showed some great things during his time at Missouri, especially in 2017 when he threw 44 touchdowns.

Lock was unable to improve on his breakout season and saw his numbers drop across the board, for the most part. The two areas he improved, however, are the most important. Lock’s completion percentage was a career-best 62.9 and his eight interceptions on 437 attempts were down from the 13 he threw on 419 attempts in 2017. In Denver, Lock will have the benefit of sitting behind Flacco for at least the start of his rookie season before being thrown into the fire.
