player. 57. . Offensive Tackle. Chicago Bears. Alijah Vera-Tucker. 16

The Chicago Bears have actually gotten great play from Mitchell Trubisky as of late, and the running game has looked good as well. In reality, the Bears have a legitimate chance to make the playoffs in the NFC, which is incredible considering where they were earlier in the year.

As they look forward, they likely will move on from Trubisky, but may not want to draft a quarterback this late in round one. If they stay with Trubisky or go another route, they still need to add an offensive lineman, and they get a great one in Alijah Vera-Tucker from USC, a future franchise left tackle.

. Edge/Linebacker. Las Vegas Raiders. Joseph Ossai. 17. player. 28

The Las Vegas Raiders have once again faltered towards the end of the season, erasing a 6-3 start by going 1-4 through their last five games. Las Vegas has issues on both sides of the ball, especially on defense, where they need help getting after the quarterback, and at linebacker to name a few.

In Joseph Ossai from Texas, they get a guy who can help them in both areas, as he is a solid linebacker who can also come up and play the edge. The Raiders have work to do next offseason, and with their only first-round pick in 2021, they check off two of their boxes.

26. . Wide Receiver. Baltimore Ravens. Jaylen Waddle. 18. player

The Baltimore Ravens are one of the hotter teams in the NFL right now, and all signs point to them getting back to the playoffs after a rough start. Baltimore is getting great play out of Lamar Jackson, the defense has stepped up, and they have an easy path to the playoffs the rest of the way.

In likelihood, they will be picking later than No. 18 overall, but if they are here, they should add a weapon to the wide receiver group. Jaylen Waddle from Alabama is a special talent, and if he can return healthy, he is going to be one of the first wideouts off the board next year.
