88. Evan Engram, TE, New York Giants

The 23rd overall pick in 2017, Evan Engram has quickly become one of the favorite targets for Eli Manning ‚— and with Odell Beckham, Jr. now in Cleveland, he could become the favorite. Engram struggled some with health in his second season, but still has 109 receptions for 1,299 yards and nine touchdowns in his first 26 games played. Not a bad start to a career at all.

89. Vance McDonald, TE, Pittsburgh Steelers

After playing for the San Francisco 49ers for four seasons, tight end Vance McDonald joined the Pittsburgh Steelers as a free agent in 2017. His first season in the Steel City was incredibly quiet as he brought in just 14 targets for 188 yards and a score.

In 2018, he was much better. McDonald became the No. 1 tight end for the Steelers and finished the year with 610 yards through the air and four touchdowns.

90. DeMarcus Lawrence, DE, Dallas Cowboys

For the first portion of the offseason, it felt like the relationship between DeMarcus Lawrence and the Dallas Cowboys could end up being strained beyond repair. The two sides were reportedly far apart on negotiations after a second franchise tag was given to Lawrence and things were turning sour.

Then out of nowhere, everything seemed to get fixed and Lawrence got a five-year, $105 million deal. That’s a lot of money, but he’s one of the best edge rushers in the game. He’s also the best player to wear No. 90.
