The Serby Mock 3.0 gives the Jets life after Darrelle Revis and the Giants a new bodyguard for Eli Manning, as we wait for Tony Romo and possibly Jimmy Garoppolo and Kirk Cousins developments:
1. Browns
Myles Garrett, DE, Texas A&M
A predator who just might make Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger retire sooner rather than later.
2. 49ers
Solomon Thomas, DE, Stanford
Has been likened to former Bengal and 49er Justin Smith, among others, and meets new GM John Lynch’s competitiveness and toughness standard.
3. Bears
Jamal Adams, S, LSU
Natural-born leader who can match up against division rival tight ends Martellus Bennett, Kyle Rudolph and Eric Ebron.
4. Jaguars
Leonard Fournette, RB, LSU
Team VP Tom Coughlin and coach Doug Marrone enjoy smashmouth more than most, and this 240-pound specimen takes a burden off Blake Bortles.
5. Titans (from Rams)
O.J. Howard, TE, Alabama
A 6-foot-6, 250-pound target to pair with Delanie Walker for Marcus Mariota.
6. Jets
Marshon Lattimore, CB, Ohio State
A partner for Morris Claiborne, and somebody will have to cover new Patriots WR Brandin Cooks. Hey, Josh McCown can’t do this alone.
7. Chargers
Malik Hooker, S, Ohio State
A center fielder to fill the Eric Weddle void who would make Willie Mays smile.
8. Panthers
Jonathan Allen, DE/DT, Alabama
Shoulder concerns cause him to fall into GM Dave Gettleman’s lap.
9. Bengals
Derek Barnett, DE, Tennessee
A pass-rushing bookend for Carlos Dunlap.
10. Bills
Marlon Humphrey, CB, Alabama
New coach Sean McDermott needs a big corner to replace Stephon Gilmore.
11. Saints
Takkarist McKinley, OLB, UCLA
Coach Sean Payton is desperate to help Cam Jordan hunt Matt Ryan, Cam Newton and Jameis Winston.
12. Browns (from Eagles)
Mitchell Trubisky, QB, North Carolina
Native son will be developed slowly by quarterback-whisperer Hue Jackson.
13. Cardinals
Corey Davis, WR, Western Michigan
Larry Fitzgerald won’t play forever, and Michael Floyd is gone.
14. Eagles (from Vikings)
Taco Charlton, DE, Michigan
A 6-foot-6, 270-pound replacement for Connor Barwin as GM Howie Roseman eyes a corner next.
15. Colts
Christian McCaffrey, RB, Stanford
Frank Gore will be 34, and Andrew Luck certainly won’t mind help from a Cardinal.
16. Ravens
Cam Robinson, OT, Alabama
GM Ozzie Newsome loves players from his alma mater and needs to replace RT Ricky Wagner.
17. Redskins
Reuben Foster, LB, Alabama
A much-needed, three-down, heat-seeking missile.
18. Titans
Kevin King, CB, Washington
A 6-foot-3 corner added to 5-11 free agent signee Logan Ryan to better deal with Mr. Luck.
19. Buccaneers
David Njoku, TE, Miami
A freakish yards-after-catch weapon for Winston.
20. Broncos
John Ross, WR, Washington
A 4.22 burner who might remind John Elway of one of his Three Amigos.
21. Lions
Haason Reddick, LB, Temple
DeAndre Levy is gone, and this is a playmaker who can be an edge rusher.
22. Dolphins
Charles Harris, DE, Missouri
Mario Williams was hardly the answer, and Cameron Wake is 35.
23. Giants
Ryan Ramczyk, OT, Wisconsin
If Johnathan Hankins bolts, Damon Harrison will need a new sidekick, someone like Florida DT Caleb Brantley. But let’s get Eli Manning a LT of the present — as long as his hip checks out — and move Ereck Flowers to RT already.
24. Raiders
Jarrad Davis, LB, Florida
Former Gators coach Will Muschamp, who recruited him, has vouched for “close area explosion and twitch,” and boy, is Oakland coach Jack Del Rio looking for close area explosion and twitch. No relation to Al Davis.
25. Texans
Garett Bolles, OT, Utah
Romo, if he lands in Houston, will need all the bodyguards coach Bill O’Brien can find for him, and O’Brien needs a RT. If Romo doesn’t come, let’s give him Notre Dame QB DeShone Kizer. Or Texas Tech QB Patrick Mahomes II.
