costrander3689's Mock Draft (Round 4)

1 - KC: Akeem Spence, DT, Illinois
Smith,QB; Eifert,TE: Greene,LB) The Chiefs will likely be replace Glen Dorsey this offseason, and finding someone to take his spot should be a priority

2 - CAR: Aaron Dobson, WR, Marshall
(Lotulelei,DT; Fisher,OT) For a while, Dobson had a 2nd round grade, but playing at Marshall has its disadvantages. Carolina needs to find more reliable WRs for Cam to throw to, and Dobson would be a good pick-up

3 - JAX: Jelani Jenkins, OLB, Florida
(Hankins,DT; Wilson,QB; Hamilton,WR) The Jaguars will likely be looking for someone to take Daryl Smith's spot at OLB. Jenkins may not be able to right away, but after a year or two, could be one of the most explosive LBs in the game

4 - CLE: Levine Toilolo, TE, Stanford
(Jones,OLB; Rogers,WR) The Browns get another target for Weeden to throw the ball to. Toilolo would be a scary target in the endzone, and on short passing downs

5 - OAK: Ryan Nassib, QB, Syracuse
(Werner,DE; Warford,OG) The Raiders should realize by now that Pryor is not an NFL QB, and Carson Palmer can't carry the torch forever. Nassib is a smart, tough kid that could fight for the starting spot in Oakland

6 - ARI: Omoregie Uzzi, OG, Georgia Tech
(Joeckel,OT; Ertz,TE; T.Williams,OLB) The Cardinals add another o-lineman, and continue to improve their anemic offense

7 - NYJ: Mike Glennon, QB, North Carolina State
(Moore,OLB; Woods,WR; Randle,HB) The Jets need to get rid of Tebow this offseason, and should look for a young QB that can compete with Sanchez. Glennon will likely not be able to start in his first year anyways, and could gain valuable experience before dethroning Sanchez the following season

8 - PHI: Landry Jones, QB, Oklahoma
(Milliner,CB; Fluker,OT; Lemonier,DE) I doubt Nick Foles will just be handed the reigns in Philly. If Jones is available, they'll look hard at him as a competitor for the starting job

9 - BUF: Brennan Williams, OT, North Carolina
(Barkley,QB; Patton,WR; Hodges,LB) Williams is a steal here, and gives the Bills a real starting RT

10 - MIN: William Gholston, DE, Michigan State
(from DET)(Banks,CB; Hopkins,WR; Logan,DT) The Vikings add another d-lineman here. Logan and Gholston should see valuable playing time this year behind Williams and Allen, and replace the following season

11 - TEN: Le'Veon Bell, RB, Michigan State
(Mingo,DE; B.Jones,OL; Robey,CB) The Titans need to add a reliable HB behind CJ. Bell is a big, powerful kid that would give them a wrecking ball on short yardage downs

12 - STL: Michael Buchanan, DE, Illinois
(Lewan,OT; Warmack,OG; T.Williams,WR; Rambo,FS) The Rams are in need of pass rushing depth, and Buchanan is a steal here

13 - SD: Jake Stoneburner, TE, Ohio State
(J.Jenkins,NT; Jeffcoat,OLB; Davis,WR) The Chargers have seen Antonio Gates decline progressively after his many injuries. Stoneburner may not be as explosive, but he is a better blocker, and a solid, reliable receiver

14 - DAL: Gabe Jackson, OG, Mississippi State
(Matthews,OT; Manuel,QB; B.Jenkins,OLB) The Cowboys should see many additions to their terrible o-line this offseason. Jackson should fight for starting time at guard

15 - MIA: Gavin Escobar, TE, San Diego State
(Allen,WR; S.Williams,DT; Carradine,DE; Ryan,CB; Richardson,OT) If Escobar comes out, he will likely be a mid-round pick. He is a better receiver than Fasano, and would give Tannehill another good target to throw the ball to

16 - WAS: Travis Long, OLB, Washington State
(Brown,MLB; Byndom,CB) The Redskins add another LB, this time a powerful OLB that can team up with Kerrigan and Orakpo to get after opposind QBs

17 - NO: Aaron Murray, QB, Georgia
(Richardson,DT; Simon,DE) The Saints know that Drew Brees can't play forever, and Chase Daniel didn't look amazing during the preseason. The Saints will likely use a mid-round selection on a QB

18 - MIN: Shawn Williams, SS, Georgia
Harrison Smith has been great for the Vikings at FS. They use this pick to get another run stopping safety that can turn and run with fast receivers

19 - SEA: Jamie Collins, OLB, Southern Miss
(Patterson,WR; D.Thomas,OT; Fauria,TE) The Seahawks have had good luck with mid-round prospects, and add a really solid LB here to pair with Wright and Wagner

20 - PIT: Zac Dysert, QB, Miami (OH)
(Mosley,LB; Lester,SS; Hunt,DE) The Steelers shouldn't feel too excited about Leftwich and Batch as their backup QBs, especially as Big Ben becomes older and more injury prone. They add another Miami(OH) QB, and have a solid QB that they can prep for the future

21 - CIN: Morgan Breslin, DE, USC
(J.Williams,DT; Okafor,DE; Bernard,HB; Bailey,WR) The Bengals add the best player on the board, and fill a need with another pass rusher

22 - IND: Daniel McCullers, DT, Tennessee
(Floyd,DL; Barner,HB) McCullers is a beast of a man at 6'8", 360lbs, but is a powerful kid that could be a perfect solution for Indy's NT spot

23 - GB: Stepfan Taylor, RB, Stanford
(Vaccaro,S; C.Thomas,OLB; Geathers,NT) The Packers add a really good HB here. They need a kid that can grind out tough yards, and Taylor had plenty of experience with that at Stanford

24 - TB: Jordan Hill, DT, Penn State
(Rhodes,CB; Aboushi,OT; Sims,TE) Hill is an absolute steal here, and gives the Bucs a strong DT to pair with Gerald McCoy

25 - ATL: Sio Moore, OLB, Connecticut
(Montgomery,DE; Lacy,HB; Frederick,OG) Moore has been one of the best players on UConn's defense for the past 2 seasons. The Falcons need to add LBs, and this is a really nice pick

26 - CHI: Markus Wheaton, WR, Oregon State
(Cooper,OG; McDonald,FS) The Bears could be without Hester soon, and he has been complaining about playing time and targets. Wheaton has been Oregon State's slot receiver, and would be a nice addition to Chicago's offense

27 - BAL: Brian Winters, OT, Kent State
(Reid,S; Minter,MLB; Stills,WR) Winters has excellent value here, and putting him at RT means they can slide Osemele to LG in place of Jah Reid

28 - TB: Terry Hawthorne, CB, Illinois
(from NE) The Bucs should like Rhodes at CB, and Wright hasn't been terrible, but they need a #3 guy. Hawthorne could go as high as the late 2nd round, but i doubt he falls far past here

29 - NYG: Mario Benavides, C, Louisville
(Jordan,DE; Reed,TE, Bailey,OT) The Giants like Baas, but they could do better. Benavides would give them good depth at the position, and they continue to add valuable young players to their roster

30 - DEN: Chris Gragg, TE, Arkansas
(Elam,SS; Short,DT; Ellington,HB) The Broncos need another TE to pair with Tamme, and Gragg has been one of the best in the SEC this season

31 - SF: Everett Dawkins, DT, Florida State
(Hunter,WR; Trufant,CB; Porter,OLB; D.Williams,FS) The 49ers continue to pump up their defense, this time with a good 5-tech DE that can eventually replace Justin Smith

32 - HOU: Brandon Williams, DT, Missouri Southern State
(Austin,WR; Holmes,C; Skov,LB) The Texans need to add NT depth, and Williams is a really solid one
