2) Jets
3) Dolphins (From Texans)
4) Falcons
5) Bengals
6) Eagles
7) Lions
8) Giants
9) Panthers
10) BroncosMiami is in a pretty incredible spot to load up, could get a Parsons, Sewell or Chase, or deal down.

The pick comes courtesy of the Houston Texans, as the two teams consummated a trade involving the pick last year.
While the third pick in the 2021 NFL Draft won’t net Clemson University quarterback Trevor Lawrence, it will be a major asset to the team’s hopes of contending for the Super Bowl in the near future.
Yesterday, the Dolphins scored a come-from-behind win against the Las Vegas Raiders thanks to some clutch play from quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick.
The Fins now stand at 10-5 and are on the brink of a playoff spot that few expected them to attain when the season started.
