1. Houston — Spencer Rattler, QB, Oklahoma | It appears the Texans are already preparing for life after Deshaun Watson, considering their first pick of the 2021 draft was Stanford quarterback Davis Mills in the third round. Mills won't keep them from drafting a quarterback here if Watson gets traded. Two of Oklahoma coach Lincoln Riley's last three quarterbacks went No. 1 overall. Rattler is a Heisman favorite headed into next season. Top needs: QB, Edge, OL

1. Jacksonville (1-15) — Trevor Lawrence, QB, Clemson, Jr. | I know this is probably boring, to the point that some are going the contrarian route and saying Lawrence isn't the best quarterback in this draft class. He is though and Urban Meyer isn't taking someone else here. The Heisman runner-up underwent surgery on his left shoulder almost a month ago in California.

The connection between the Dolphins and Justin Herbert is likely a smokescreen. They'll likely have to burn some picks in order to beat the Chargers to Tagovailoa. They'd rather stand pat and land their quarterback of choice. Top needs: QB, OL, S, Edge, WR
