33. St. Louis Rams: Jerel Worthy, DT, Michigan St.
Worthy can be dominant at the point of attack but needs to work on his conditioning. The Rams were 31st against the rush in 2011 and can’t repeat that stat next season. Fred Robbins and Gary Gibson aren’t the answer up front.
34. Indianapolis Colts: Stephon Gilmore, CB, South Carolina
Gilmore is a solid fit in Chuck Pagano’s defense and fills a major need. Gilmore is a great value at 34 in our 2012 NFL Mock Draft.
35. Minnesota Vikings: Mohamed Sanu, WR, Rutgers
No LT’s available, so the Vikings go with a weapon for Christian Ponder. Sanu has solid hands and is as versatile as any WR in the draft. The Vikings will have a ton of options with Sanu and Harvin.
36. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Brandon Boykin, CB, Georgia
Boykin looked like the best CB in Mobile but will be nursing a minor break in his leg.
37. Cleveland Browns: Doug Martin, RB, Boise St.
All offense for the Browns thus far. Martin is a perfect fit in this offense as he can run, catch, and block.
38. Jacksonville Jaguars: Jamell Fleming, CB, Oklahoma
The Jags secondary was in shambles at the end of 2011, so they will look early for replacements.
39. Washington Redskins: Ryan Tannehill, QB, Texas A&M
The Redskins may be an option for Peyton Manning or another vet, so they look for an understudy. Tannehill likely goes in the first in some sort of trade scenario but I don’t have the heart to put him in my top 10 this week.
40. Miami Dolphins: Sean Spence, OLB, Miami
Spence moves down the road with Miami’s switch to the 4-3. If he were bigger we would be talking about him as a top 15 pick in our 2012 NFL Mock Draft.
41. Buffalo Bills: Brock Osweiler, QB, Arizona St.
No doubt the Bills have bigger needs but they can’t afford to pass on the value that Osweiler brings at 41. He could push Fitzpatrick in the near future.
42. Carolina Panthers: Brandon Thompson, DT, Clemson
The Panthers couldn’t stop the run and Thompson can.
43. Kansas City Chiefs: Alfonzo Dennard, CB, Nebraska
The Chiefs could be replacing Brandon Carr and Dennard stops his slide at 43.
44. Seattle Seahawks: Brandon Weeden, QB, Oklahoma St.
I think Seattle trades up to grab Weeden but ends up with him in some way. Great fit for this team and could replace Tarvaris Jackson immediately.
45. Dallas Cowboys: Casey Hayward, CB, Vanderbilt
Hayward doesn’t exactly fit the mold of the typical Cowboys CB but that might be a good thing.
46. Philadelphia Eagles: Bobby Wagner, OLB, Utah St.
Eagles rebuild of the linebacking corps is off to a strong start. Wagner is a steal at 46 in our 2012 NFL Mock Draft.
47. New York Jets: Lamar Miller, RB, Miami
Why not? He’s a great value and could be a solid complement to Shonn Greene while taking pressure off Mark Sanchez.
48. New England Patriots (f/OAK): Cam Johnson, DE/OLB, Virginia
Cam Johnson has the Pats written all over him. He showed a nice burst on tape but was hampered by nagging injuries in 2011.
49. San Diego Chargers: Zebrie Sanders, T, FSU
Sanders needs some work but the Chargers have to find some talented OL in this draft.
50. Chicago Bears: Orson Charles, TE, Georgia
The Bears need some legitimate receiving threats for Cutler. TE isn’t a need but Charles is too dynamic to pass on at this point. Charles is a steal at 50 in our 2012 NFL Mock Draft.
51. Philadelphia Eagles (f/ARZ): Vinny Curry, DE, Marshall
DE isn’t a huge need but Curry is a solid value and with the extra pick they can afford to gamble on this one paying off big time.
52. Tennessee Titans: Lavonte David, OLB, Nebraska
A speed rusher would be nice here but no one is available. David can play the WILL LB spot.
53. Cincinnati Bengals: David Wilson, RB, Virginia Tech
The Bengals will turn the page on Cedric Benson with David Wilson coming to Cincinnati.
54. Atlanta Falcons: Kelechi Osemele, G/T, Iowa St.
Osemele looks like a guard but could play some RT in a pinch. The Falcons need some OL help at either spot and Osemele is a great value at 54.
55. Detroit Lions: Leonard Johnson, CB, Iowa St.
Johnson showed his ability to cover, especially in press man at the Senior Bowl. It would be considered a coup if Johnson falls this far on draft day.
56. Pittsburgh Steelers: Chase Minnifield, CB, Virginia
Frank Minnifield’s son playing in Pittsburgh. Ouch that will kill Cleveland fans.
57. Denver Broncos: Dwayne Allen, TE, Clemson
The Broncos find Tim Tebow a solid weapon late in round 2. Allen provides excellent value this late.
58. Houston Texans: Alameda Ta’amu, NT, Washington
Ta’amu looked solid at the Senior Bowl which may push him back into round two. The Texans can afford to take a risk on Ta’amu as Shaun Cody has played a solid nose in Wade Phillip’s defense.
59. New Orleans Saints: Rueben Randle, WR, LSU
The Saints could lose Lance Moore to free agency and need to start looking for replacements to this receiving corps. Devery Henderson could be a cap casualty as well.
60. Green Bay Packers: Jared Crick, DE/DT, Nebraska
Crick is a forgotten man after he went down to injury. The Pack get an excellent value this late in the second.
61. Baltimore Ravens: Kevin Zeitler, G, Wisconsin
Ben Grubbs will be costly to keep and they could look for his replacement early in this draft. With Matt Birk retiring and Bryant McKinnie attempting to eat his way out of the league, they should look early and often to the OL.
62. San Francisco 49ers: Dwight Bentley, CB, UL-Lafayette
SF’s corners were abused by Eli Manning and Co. They should be looking for help early in this draft. Bentley showed he can play with the big boys at the Senior Bowl and earned a spot in the second round.
63. New York Giants: Brandon Washington, G/T, Miami
Washington played tackle at Miami but looks to be a guard in the NFL. The Giants need depth at both positions which makes Washington a good value pick here.
64. New England Patriots: Stephen Hill, WR, Georgia Tech
Why not? A big, raw prospect that could be a huge hit.
