15- JAX -Jeff Gomes, DL Texas Christian - He is big frame.. who has been wall creating nightmare for offense to run against.... he is high character kid who will be starter for JAX for 8-10 years..... Grade A (Good solid pick....Jax always go for non flashy but solid picks)
16 - Falcons G.Ballard, cb Penn State - He is short in height but his game is NOT at all short.. he is great cover cover... and will be great #2 CB for Falcons in highly competitive NFC South... Grade A- ( if he is 1-2 inches taller he would be Top 10 pick)
17 - Rams J.Coleman, LB/SS SD State - He is speed demon.... who plays with emotion.... he run hot and cold streak....but overall great talent...he is fit for NFL style and will be counted to anchor Rams secondary.... Grade A- ( they are staying with local kid and he will produce)
18 Vikings W.Fritz, LB Sac State - He is speed demon with complete skills to be effective LB in NFL... he terrorized his conference and he will do same in NFL... he can rush and he can cover ..... plus he is great character all effort kid. Grade A
19 Panthers W.Mudd, LB Portland State - Another small school LB with high motor and total effort.... he is more of run stuffing LB with average rushing and coverage skills... he will develop as starting MLB in NFL.... Grade A-
20 Bucs W.Wooten, WR Georgia - He is total speed guy with decent hand and route running ability.... he was TD machine in SEC. and with right camp he can be nightmare for CB's trying to cover him.... just misfit for run first offense of Bucs.... Grade A- (he would be A but misfit for Bucs)
21 Bucs R.Elliott, SS Notre Dame - He is head scratcher .... he has average speed but great acceleration and good in zone coverage.... there was chatter from Bucs draft room that there was last min switch to pick him over B.Blevin, OL and D.Catt, DL.... honestly no matter how he develops there will always second guessing this pick in BucLand as he has talent to be decent but also has many off field issues..... This are the picks which can get GM fired .... only saving grace is that Bucs owner is their GM. Grade C+ ( There is no way you pass B.Blevins this late in draft and pick the player who would be there in 2nd round anyway)
22 - Bengals W.Brown. LT Washington - He has been solid protector at Washington and will be expected to do same in NFL... he has all skills and attitude to be 10 year starter for Bengals.... Grade A-
23 Packers D.Catt, DT Texas - He is totally non glamour just pure football player who bring all his skills and attitude to each game.. he is totally no nonsense kid who will be right fit to anchor the Dline for years... Grade A-
24 Eagles B.Blevins, OT Kunztown - He is small school... high potential OL who is bit raw but has tremendous upside. If he get right coaching he can bloom into rock solid 10 year OL anchor for Eagles. Bucs had their eye on him but something changed last min and they passed him...allowing Eagles to land great OL late in draft. Grade A (bit risky but tremendous potential)
25 Colts M.Verde, OC Cincinnati - He is great effort kid who has proved his worth at every stage of his career and on its way to successful NFL career as starting OC.. this is classic need based pick by Colts who is trying to build their offense for last couple of season. Grade A-
26 Jets W.Lewis, SS Michigan - He was leader of the defense for his college team... he has great speed and decent coverage skills... he is also great contributor at special teams .... so he will contribute immediately as special teamer and backup safety and with time will develop as starting safety... Grade B+
27 Browns D.Dunne, CB SD State - He has been good starting DB for his college team and has enjoyed good productive college career... he has all the needed tool to be starting DB in NFL.... just need 1-2 season of experience but great contributor with right attitude. Grade A-
28 Vikings B.Hall, RB Arizona - He is decent RB with good productive college career..... he has all needed skills ...size... hands... speed (average) but can develop as starter over the period with some experience. Grade B+
29 Seattle E.Milano, OT SD State - He is monster specimen from SD state with mean streak and great potential.... he has tendency to take some plays off...but with right coaching and experience he can be developed as Starting OL Grade A-
30 Raiders F.Costner, LT Hawai - He is great tackle with good pass protection and decent run game.....he is flying bit under radar as he played his college career at Hawaii but he has good work ethic and with some experience will turn out to be great starting LT ... Grade A-
31 Giants S.Tidwell, DB Nebraska - He is great talent with elite speed.... but is lazy and often not focused on the game.... if Gaints coaches can keep him focused he can be steal of the draft but if he remains unfocused as he was in college then he will be potential went waste.... overall great pick with good upside. Grade B+ (speed alone is winner here but he is more than just speed just need his head in right place)
32 Browns A.Smith RB Florida- He played FB at college but was used primary as pass catching back.... he has great hand and decent speed.... while he is bit of reach ... he can fit well with Browns offense.... Grade B (he is good and will have great career but just was bit early on him for 1st round)
