2017 NFL Mock Draft: Breaking Down Post-Week 10 Predictions
Another week down and another step closer to the Cleveland Browns officially being on the clock.
The race for the No. 1 pick remains uneventful, as the Browns continue to lose and hold on to the top spot. The San Francisco 49ers, the only one-loss team in the league, appear to be the only other team in contention.
It's been an odd season for previewing the NFL draft, because so few fanbases are focused on 2017. With well over half the league stuck in mediocrity, multiple teams in position to own top-10 draft picks still have a legitimate shot at the playoffs.
Based on Sunday's action, here's an updated mock draft with the current draft order, using full-season strength of schedule as a tiebreaker:
| 1 | Cleveland Browns | Myles Garrett | DE | Texas A&M |
| 2 | San Francisco 49ers | Mitch Trubisky | QB | North Carolina |
| 3 | Chicago Bears | DeShone Kizer | QB | Notre Dame |
| 4 | Jacksonville Jaguars | Malik McDowell | DT | Michigan State |
| 5 | New York Jets | Leonard Fournette | RB | LSU |
| 6 | Carolina Panthers | Marlon Humphrey | CB | Alabama |
| 7 | San Diego Chargers | Jonathan Allen | DL | Alabama |
| 8 | Cincinnati Bengals | Mike Williams | WR | Clemson |
| 9 | Buffalo Bills | Jabrill Peppers | LB/S | Michigan |
| 10 | Tennessee Titans (from LA) | Reuben Foster | LB | Alabama |
| 11 | Pittsburgh Steelers | Jamal Adams | S | LSU |
| 12 | Indianapolis Colts | Cam Robinson | OT | Alabama |
| 13 | Tampa Bay Buccaneers | Derek Barnett | DE | Tennessee |
| 14 | New Orleans Saints | Tim Williams | LB | Alabama |
| 15 | Green Bay Packers | Teez Tabor | CB | Florida |
| 16 | Arizona Cardinals | Deshaun Watson | QB | Clemson |
| 17 | Tennessee Titans | Gareon Conley | CB | Ohio State |
| 18 | Miami Dolphins | Sidney Jones | CB | Washington |
| 19 | Baltimore Ravens | John Ross | WR | Washington |
| 20 | Philadelphia Eagles (from MIN) | Desmond King | CB | Iowa |
| 21 | Detroit Lions | JuJu Smith-Schuster | WR | USC |
| 22 | Cleveland Browns (from PHI) | Ryan Ramczyk | OT | Wisconsin |
| 23 | Atlanta Falcons | Tre'Davious White | CB | LSU |
| 24 | Washington Redskins | Malik Hooker | S | Ohio State |
| 25 | New York Giants | Takkarist McKinley | DE | UCLA |
| 26 | Houston Texans | Zach Cunningham | LB | Vanderbilt |
| 27 | Denver Broncos | Jarrad Davis | LB | Florida |
| 28 | Seattle Seahawks | Dan Feeney | OG | Indiana |
| 29 | New England Patriots | Jourdan Lewis | CB | Michigan |
| 30 | Kansas City Chiefs | Dalvin Cook | RB | Florida State |
| 31 | Oakland Raiders | Cordrea Tankersley | CB | Clemson |
| 32 | Dallas Cowboys | Charles Harris | DE | Missouri |
15. Green Bay Packers: Teez Tabor, CB, Florida

The Green Bay Packers' inconsistent play on offense has received most of the attention in regard to the Packers' struggles, but the bigger issue may be the defensive side of the ball.
Marcus Mariota picked apart the Packers secondary on Sunday, throwing for 295 yards and generating a Total QBR of 96.3, according to ESPN.com.
It was the fifth time this season the Packers have allowed the opposing quarterback to post a Total QBR of 70 or higher. The Packers are 1-4 in those games.
Improving the Packers' pass defense isn't as simple as just upgrading the secondary, but that would be a good place to start. This is an extremely deep draft class at cornerback, and the Packers would be wise to take advantage of the value at that position.
Florida cornerback Teez Tabor was among the most highly touted prospects entering the season. He's had some ups and downs this year, including a rough outing against Tennessee, but remains a solid option in the first round for a team like the Packers.
19. Baltimore Ravens: John Ross, WR, Washington

Washington Huskies receiver John Ross was been quietly climbing the draft rankings throughout the year, but he burst into the national spotlight with a dominant performance on Saturday night against USC.
Ross' signature play of the night was a long touchdown on which he juked USC cornerback Adoree' Jackson so bad that even Jackson had to laugh about it on Twitter.
Ross is a redshirt junior who missed the entire 2015 season due to a knee injury. But this rise to stardom was always expected, as Ross was the No. 15 wide receiver recruit in the nation in 2013, according to Scout.
The Ravens have an aging receiving corps, led by 37-year-old Steve Smith Sr. and 30-year-old Mike Wallace. Adding a young deep threat like Ross would change the dynamics of Baltimore's offense and open things up in the passing game for Joe Flacco.
25. New York Giants: Takkarist McKinley, DE, UCLA

The New York Giants spent well over $100 million this offseason to upgrade their struggling defensive line. The majority if that money went to Olivier Vernon, Damon Harrison and Jason Pierre-Paul, who have combined for 4.5 sacks.
Entering Monday night's showdown with the Cincinnati Bengals, the Giants ranked dead last in the NFL with just 11 sacks. In fact, the Giants' pass-rush situation is so bad that the team leader in sacks is Landon Collins, their starting strong safety.
The 2017 draft class does not appear to be loaded with talented pass-rushers, but if the draft falls their way, the Giants should attempt to upgrade this area with a young, explosive talent.
UCLA defensive end Takkarist McKinley has been one of the breakout stars of this college football season and could be a target for the Giants.
According to Sports Illustrated's Emily Kaplan, earlier this season an NFL scout compared McKinley to Denver Broncos star pass-rusher DeMarcus Ware.
That's a lofty expectation to set for McKinley, but if he can even approach Ware's production at the next level, he would be a substantial upgrade in New York.
