Every month for the remainder of the 2017 season, theScore's Dane Belbeck and Mitch Sanderson will project the first round of the 2018 NFL Draft using the current standings to predict draft order. Strength of schedule will be used as the first tiebreaker and theScore's weekly power rankings will be used as the second.
11. Seattle Seahawks - Trey Adams, OT, Washington
The Seahawks desperately need offensive line help. They always have, but it's too difficult to ignore at this point. - Sanderson
12. Cleveland Browns (from Houston Texans) - Iman Marshall, CB, USC
Opposing quarterbacks boast an incredible 73.4 completion percentage against the Browns' secondary this season. Joe Haden is no longer in the mix and Marshall gives the club a true No. 1 corner. - Belbeck
13. Jacksonville Jaguars - Lamar Jackson, QB, Louisville
The Jaguars can't be satisfied with Blake Bortles, and while they've moved to a run-first scheme, Jackson's mobility will help the ground game and still provide Jacksonville's most exciting offense to date. - Sanderson
14. Dallas Cowboys - Tavarus McFadden, CB, Florida State
Jerry Jones loves him some shutdown cornerbacks and McFadden fits that mold as well as anybody in the draft. A flashy defensive back from Florida State has starred for the Cowboys before, and the club will hope to replicate Deion Sanders' success with this pick. - Belbeck
15. New York Jets - Mason Rudolph, QB, Oklahoma State
The Jets cannot go another season with Josh McCown as their best quarterback option. Wherever they land, they'll be taking the best available passer; it won't be lower than No. 15. - Sanderson
16. New Orleans Saints - Arden Key, DE/OLB, LSU
The Saints' defense has been woeful for years, and if Key drops to No. 16, the club will snap him up in a heartbeat. This would be a very popular pick among those in New Orleans, keeping an LSU star in-state. - Belbeck
17. Oakland Raiders - Da'Ron Payne, DT, Alabama
The edges of the Raiders' defense are locked down, but if Oakland can add one more stud on the interior D-line, it won't have to touch that unit for years. - Sanderson
18. Minnesota Vikings - Mitch Hyatt, OT, Clemson
Whether it's Sam Bradford or teddy Bridgewater under center for the Vikings next season, quarterback protection has to be prioritized in the offseason. Drafting Hyatt immediately gives Minnesota premier talent on the offensive line. - Belbeck
19. Washington Redskins - Christian Wilkins, DT, Clemson
What the Redskins decide to do with Kirk Cousins will have major implications on their draft. Assuming he stays in D.C., pairing a young playmaker like Wilkins with Jonathan Allen will provide the club with a solid tandem for the foreseeable future. - Sanderson
20. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Bradley Chubb, DE, NC State
The Buccaneers have one sack through three games. Not much analysis is needed here other than the fact that's absolutely horrific. Chubb immediately helps that issue. - Belbeck
