Mar 4, 2021 · With the benefit of five years' hindsight, Adam Rank redrafts the first round of the 2016 NFL Draft. Which original fourth-round pick jumps all the way up to No. 1 overall?
- Tennessee Titans: Joey Bosa, DE, Ohio State. Rewind five years and the Tennessee Titans were involved in a blockbuster trade that would see the Los Angeles Rams select Jared Goff with the first overall pick.
- Cleveland Browns: Dak Prescott, QB, Mississippi State. Another pre-draft trade that never happens in this 2016 NFL Draft redraft is the Cleveland Browns trading the second overall pick to the Philadelphia Eagles.
- San Diego (now Los Angeles) Chargers: Ronnie Stanley, OT, Notre Dame. Protecting Philip Rivers has been a problem as old as the quarterback himself. In this 2016 NFL Draft redraft, they resolve that problem with Notre Dame offensive tackle Ronnie Stanley.
- Dallas Cowboys: Jalen Ramsey, CB, FSU. Although the Dallas Cowboys have seen good returns out of their original fourth overall pick — Ezekiel Elliott — their biggest need coming into the 2016 NFL Draft was at cornerback.

- Rams select Carson Wentz, QB, North Dakota State (Actual pick: Jared Goff, QB) There’s a chance the Rams would have benched Case Keenum by now if they had drafted a quicker study, but there’s an equal chance Jeff Fisher would have applied his slow-and-steady approach to quarterback development on whomever Los Angeles had taken with the No. 1 pick.
- Eagles select Dak Prescott, QB, Mississippi State (Actual pick: Carson Wentz, QB) Prescott is an unlikely Rookie of the Year front-runner, and his mobility, decision-making and ability to protect the ball (seven TDs against just one pick through six games) would make him an immediate fit at the helm of Doug Pederson’s offense if the Sam Bradford trade had also occurred in this alternate timeline.
- Chargers select Jalen Ramsey, DB, Florida State (Actual pick: Joey Bosa, DE) Bosa has been excellent in the first three games of his holdout-shortened rookie season, but Ramsey is making an early case to be the best player to come out of the 2016 class.
- Cowboys select Ezekiel Elliott, RB, Ohio State (Actual pick: Ezekiel Elliott, RB) Think the Cowboys are good with using a top-five pick on the league's leading rusher through seven weeks?
