33. Houston Texans – Ra’Shede Hageman, DE, Minnesota
Hageman has the ability to dominate at the line of scrimmage with his combination of size, strength, and athleticism. That said, there is work to do in the consistency department
34. Washington Redskins – Morgan Moses, OT, Virginia
The Redskins need a RT and Moses would be a perfect answer to that problem.
35. Cleveland Browns – Jason Verrett, CB, TCU
I don’t know how Verrett falls out of round one but he does in this instance – could his size force him to fall a bit? Maybe. If he does, Cleveland would be happy to snag his talents with the 35th pick.
36. Oakland Raiders – Dee Ford, OLB, Auburn
The Raiders added Sio Moore in last year’s draft. Teaming Moore and Ford as outside pass rushers is too good to be true for Reggie McKenzie.
37. Houston Texans – Brad Roby, CB, Ohio St.
An ILB makes a ton of sense here but Roby is too talented to fall much further than this point. He needs some refinement in terms of technique but could be a great addition to the Texans secondary. CB isn’t a huge need but Rick Smith can’t pass on the value.
38. St. Louis Rams – Terrence Brooks, S, Florida St.
This pick could come down to which FSU safety. Brooks wins out in this mock as he could make a really nice complement to T.J. McDonald.
39. Jacksonville Jaguars – Jimmy Garoppolo, QB, Eastern Illinois
The Jags are patient with their QB and get a guy that I value as the third best QB in this draft.
40. Minnesota Vikings – Kyle Van Noy, OLB, BYU
The Vikings really need a talent upgrade in their linebacking corps. Van Noy is not a guy that is going to blow you away with measurables but he shows up with big plays every week.
41. Buffalo Bills – Jace Amaro, TE, Texas Tech
The Bills find a difference maker at the TE position with really great value. I think Amaro is the best TE in this draft so getting him with the 41st pick should make EJ Manuel’s day.
42. Tennessee Titans – Carlos Hyde, RB, Ohio St.
The Titans have officially cut ties with Chris Johnson. Not a surprise to anyone but nevertheless it creates a hole in the backfield. Hyde can more than fill that hole.
43. New York Giants – Austin Seferian-Jenkins, TE, Washington
The Giants need to add some playmaking talent for Eli Manning. They have little in terms of the TE position and ASJ seems to be convincing teams that he’s matured. If he has indeed matured, he’s a first round talent that is likely to be a great value in the second.
44. St. Louis Rams – Joel Bitonio, OT/OG, Nevada
Bitonio gives the Rams some flexibility as he can play either guard or tackle. They need a little of both so this one makes sense.
45. Detroit Lions – Cody Latimer, WR, Indiana
This one switches from Davante Adams to Latimer. He’s as hot a name as anyone in the draft right now after an impressive pro day. But he’s more than just a flash in the pan. Remember when people were bagging me for having him in my top 100?
46. Pittsburgh Steelers – Davante Adams, WR, Fresno St.
If Adams becomes a more consistent catcher of the football, the Steelers will have struck gold on this one. He’s got all the intangibles to be really good and loads of potential.
47. Dallas Cowboys – Zach Mettenberger, QB, LSU
Tony Romo is 33-years old and they don’t have a young QB to groom on the roster. While QB probably isn’t high on their list of needs, a chance to grab a talent like Mettenberger may be too great to pass on.
48. Baltimore Ravens – Stephon Tuitt, DE, Notre Dame
The Ravens will be looking to replace some depth on the defensive line. The addition of Stephon Tuitt should do just that and he could be leaned on early on as a rotational player.
