16. Baltimore Ravens
C.J Mosley

Lewan was the pick here last time but with him off the board the Ravens fill in with a defensive playmaker for the interior of their linebacking core. The Ravens could go in a number of directions here, including another pass rusher, but take the veteran from Alabama.

17. Dallas Cowboys
Calvin Pryor

The Cowboys pickup a big hitter for their defense after missing out on Donald. Pryor can play in coverage but provides the hammer to help cover the run and break up passes in the secondary.

18. New York Jets
Bradley Roby

The Jets have not filled their cornerback needs yet and Roby is one of the finest. It will be typical to put a receiver here but the Jets may get DeSean Jackson and have to fill Rex Ryan’s biggest need here with Roby.

19. Miami Dolphins
Zach Martin

Offensive lineman meet the Dolphins. Dolphins meet an offensive lineman. If the Dolphins somehow unload Mike Wallace, very doubtful, then a receiver is in play here as well.

20. Arizona Cardinals
Johnny Manziel

Again a pick that seems to make some sense is Manziel to the Cardinals. The Cardinals, like teams ahead of them, will be auctioning off this pick for anyone looking to move up for a QB. Instead they take Manziel and let him develop with Bruce Arians.
