Will Reichard - Detroit Lions

The Detroit Lions lost the NFC Championship in part due to a lack of trust in their kicker Michael Badgley. The Lions could add the NCAA's leading scorer and a reliable kicker in Will Reichard. The Lions would allow Reichard to compete every year while playing in a dome which is beneficial for kickers.

Trezman Marshall - Tampa Bay Buccaneers

For a Day three selection like Marshall will likely be, the most important part of the draft is where you land. The Buccaneers lost linebacker Devin White in free agency creating a hole in the middle of their defense. The Bucs spent heavily in free agency retaining Mike Evans and Baker Mayfield meaning the team will need to replace White via the draft.

Trezman Marshall will have a chance to compete as a starter on day one in Tampa alongside franchise icon Lavonte David. The physical linebacker has the play recognition to be a key piece of the Bucs defense from the start and mentorship from Lavonte David would be great for any young linebacker.

Jase McClellan - New York Giants

After losing Saquon Barkley in free agency the Giants are attempting to rebuild their running back room which started with signing Devin Singletary. The team will look to add another back or two via the NFL Draft as they look for cheap contracts at running back. The team rebuilt it's offensive line spending top dollar on guards to help in the running game.

Joining the Giants would give Jase McClellan a chance to get significant playing time in his rookie season. Brian Daboll and Mike Kafka have been able to make the best out of bad quarterback play in New York making the postseason in 2022. Running behind a solid offensive line in what may be a run-heavy offense would be a great landing spot for McClellan.
