21. Green Bay Packers
Jason Verrett

After letting Sam Shields make it to free agency the Packers now have a need in the secondary. Verrett is one of a few corners bunched together for teams. Some see Justin Gilbert as the best available but others like Verrett or Bradley Roby after Dennard.

22. Philadelphia Eagles
C.J. Mosley

Adding a quarterback to his 3-4 defense, one that learned under Chip Kelly’s friend Nick Saban, is a perfect fit for the Eagles. Mosley is a high quality linebacker that should make the transition easily. The Eagles would be interested in Pryor or Dix fell but “settle” with Mosley.

23. Kansas City Chiefs
O’Dell Beckham Jr.

The Chiefs need some strength added to their offense and Beckham gives them that. The Chiefs could be tempted by the big Kelvin Benjamin but Beckham’s Combine showed he could be a powerful receiver the team needs.

24. Cincinnati Bengals
Jeremiah Attaochu

A name not found in many first round mocks the Bengals add to their linebacking/defensive line core here with Attaochu who could replace free agent Michael Johnson. The Bengals would also love a safety to fall to them but instead settle for Attaochu.

25. San Diego Chargers
Ra’Shede Hageman

Hageman, the Minnesota product, has been all over the board. He shows the ability to crumble a pocket but not consistently. The Chargers would be hard pressed to pass on Eric Ebron here as a long term replacement for Antonio Gates. Hageman is a boom or bust prospect that could take their defense to the next level.
