Each team and its fanbase has a specific target in mind as the NFL draft approaches. If everything breaks in their favor, a dream scenario unfolds and the favored prospect will hold up the team's jersey on the stage in Philadelphia.

The definition of a dream target is a moving target, though. Basically, it boils down to those prospects unlikely to be available at their current spot but fills exactly what a franchise needs or serves as a perfect fit for an organization.

For our purposes, those dream scenarios will stay within the realm of possibility. For example, every team would love to add a talent the caliber of Texas A&M defensive end Myles Garrett. It makes no sense to state Garrett is the Dallas Cowboys' dream target when the possibility he will be available with the 28th overall pick is pretty much nonexistent.

Each scenario will be based on an organization's situation and where it stands in the draft order. A couple players will appear more than once because teams will have similar interests.

The line between reality and a dream scenario can be blurred, while the acquisition of a preferred target can deem a franchise's entire draft class a success.
