costrander3689's Mock Draft (Round 2)

1 - KC: Tavon Austin, WR, West Virginia
(Smith, QB) The Chiefs kick off the 2nd round by taking Smith's favorite target. They need WR help, especially if Bowe is release, and they need to add playmakers

2 - JAX: Tyler Wilson, QB, Arkansas
(Lotulelei, DT) This pick should be a no-brainer for Jacksonville. Gabbert is awful and Henne, even if good, is not a long-term answer at QB

3 - CIN: Eric Reid, FS, LSU
(from OAK)(Warmack, OG) The Bengals take the best player on the board, and can finally replace Taylor Mays with a real safety

4 - PHI: C.J. Mosley, OLB, Alabama
(Joeckel, LT) The Eagles like DeMeco Ryans and Mychal Kendricks, but need another LB. Mosley is a steal here, and gives them a 3rd and final LB

5 - CAR: Robert Woods, WR, USC
(Hankins, DT) The Panthers need more reliable playmakers around Newton. If Woods comes out, he'll likely go somewhere around here

6 - BUF: Landry Jones, QB, Oklahoma
(Moore, DE) The Bills said they will likely be looking for a franchise-QB in this draft. Jones has really pumped up his draft stock with his past few games, and shown why he was considered a Top 10 pick last year

7 - ARI: Lane Johnson, OT, Oklahoma
(Barkley, QB) The Cardinals get a nice LT to hold up Barkley's blindside. If either Potter or Massie can prove to be a capable RT, this could be a much, much better team

8 - NYJ: Giovani Bernard, RB, North Carolina
(Jordan, OLB) The Jets need a good HB to take over starter duties. Shonn Greene might benefit from not being the lead guy, and the Jets can get back to pounding the football

9 - TEN: Xavier Rhodes, CB, Florida State
(Werner, DE) Rhodes has excellent value here, and gives the Titans additional CB depth, which will be huge as Verner goes into his contract year

10 - STL: Zach Ertz, TE, Stanford
(Lewan, LT; Allen, WR) Lance Kendricks has been decent, but they need someone better. Ertz has been a big part of Stanford's success this season, and, combined with Allen, Quick and Givens, will give Bradford a dangerous young receiving corps

11 - SD: D.J. Fluker, OT, Alabama
(Milliner, CB) The Chargers are unsure about the future of Jared Gaither, which is not a good thing for Phillip Rivers. If they can get a good LT here, they might be okay

12 - DET: David Amerson, CB, North Carolina State
(Mingo, DE/OLB) The Lions take one of the best players on the board, and address their secondary. Amerson will be a nice CB, and can move to safety if needed

13 - WAS: Jackson Jeffcoat, DE, Texas
The Redskins saw what happens when you don't have depth at vital positions after they lost Kerrigan and Orakpo for the season. Jeffcoat's injury may raise some concern, but he's a bargain at this point

14 - DAL: EJ Manuel, QB, Florida State
(Matthews, OT) The Cowboys could go a lot of different ways here, but I think they'll go QB in the 2nd or 3rd round. Romo is hated by the Dallas media, and Orton is not a long-term solution

15 - MIA: DeAndre Hopkins, WR, Clemson
(Montgomery, DE) Hopkins is a steal here, and gives Tannehill a #1 WR to throw the ball to

16 - MIN: Dallas Thomas, OT, Tennessee
(Hunter, WR) Loadholt's contract is up after this season, and the Vikings could be looking for a new RT. Thomas is a very talented young player that can play RT for now, and move inside to guard later on

17 - CIN: Kenjon Barner, RB, Oregon
The Bengals take the scariest HB in the draft, and add an explosive playmaker to pair with the steady BJGE

18 - SEA: Sharrif Floyd, DT, Florida
(T.Williams, WR) The Seahawks take the best player on the board, and add a good young run-stopping DT to their roster

19 - PIT: Matt Elam, SS, Florida
(J.Jenkins, NT) The Steelers shouldn't think twice about this pick, and nab a really good player that can provide depth at FS or SS where they have seen a lot of injuries

20 - MIA: Jordan Poyer, CB, Oregon State
(from IND) The Dolphins traded Vontae Davis to Indy, and use the pick they got to take another very good young CB

21 - GB: Eddie Lacy, RB, Alabama
(B.Jones, OL) The Packers add a steady, seasoned HB to their roster. If they use him properly, the could have a much more balance rushing attack

22 - TB: Kawann Short, DT, Purdue
(Banks, CB) Short is an absolute steal here, and gives the Bucs a good young DT to pair with Gerald McCoy

23 - NE: Da'Rick Rogers, WR, Tennessee Tech
(J.Williams, DT) The Patriots get Tom Brady a new toy here. Rogers has excellent deep speed, which should help this offense spread out opposing defenses

24 - BAL: Tony Jefferson, FS, Oklahoma
(Ogletree, MLB) The Ravens would love Rogers, but will be more than happy to take Ed Reed's successor here

25 - NYG: Morgan Breslin, DE, USC
(Cooper, IOL) The Giants need a pass rusher to replace Osi, and Breslin is the best one on the board.

26 - CHI: Brian Winters, OT, Kent State
(Eifert, TE) Webb is terrible, and Carimi has been dreadfully inconsistent. The Bears need to add a dominator, and Winters is as good as they come

27 - DEN: Stepfan Taylor, RB, Stanford
(Vaccaro, S) Another team nabs a running back here, and the Broncos get a power back to pair with the speedy Ronnie Hillman

28 - SF: Desmond Trufant, CB, Washington
(Okafor, OLB) The 49ers go defense again, and get a real CB to replace Carlos Rodgers or Tarrell Brown

29 - ATL: Larry Warford, OG, Kentucky
(Ansah, DE) Warford has really good value here, and gives the Falcons a guard to replace Konz once he takes McClure's spot at center

30 - HOU: Robert Lester, SS, Alabama
(Patterson, WR) Grover Quinn may be too expensive to resign. Nolan isn't a terrible alternative, but they'd be better off with a reall SS, especially a well-coached one

31 - CLE: Manti Te'o, ILB, Notre Dame
The Browns forfeit this pick when they selected Josh Gordon of Baylor in the Supplemental Draft

32 - NO: Sheldon Richardson, DT, Missouri
The Saints lost this pick as part of the sanctions for Bounty Gate
