1-16

17-32

Round 2

Posted By Jesse Lucas Last Updated: April 21, 2015.

Tennessee Titans: Josiah Matias, G, Florida State

The Titans will need a left guard if Andy Levitre continues to struggle. Josiah Matias is a guy to keep an eye on.

Previous Pick: Hroniss Grasu, C, Oregon
Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Tre Jackson, G, Florida State

I like the left side of the Buccaneers offensive line. Plus one person emailed Chris Ransom and told him that the Buccaneers are contempt with Demar Dotson at right tackle.

Tampa Bay does need to address the offensive line. Jameis Winston can be reunited with teammate Tre Jackson who was the right guard on Winston's offensive line at Florida State.

Previous Pick: Tevin Coleman, RB, Indiana
Oakland Raiders: Alvin Dupree, LE, Kentucky

Many believe Alvin Dupree is a first round prospect. Dupree looks like a second round pick and would be an awesome fit for the Raiders.

Previous Pick: Josiah Matias, G, Florida State
Jacksonville Jaguars: Kurtis Drummond, S, Michigan State

Jacksonville needs a free safety. Kurtis Drummond is the top safety available and he played free safety at Michigan State.

Previous Pick: Maxx Williams, TE, Minnesota
New York Jets: Breshad Perriman, WR, Central Florida

Breshad Perriman gets to learn from another Central Florida Golden Knight in Brandon Marshall. Perriman can start int he slot and eventually work hard enough to succeed Marshall.

Previous Pick: Brett Hundley, QB, UCLA
Washington Redskins: Marcus Peters, CB, Washington

Washington needs to get younger on the secondary. Dan Snyder cannot keep buying defensive backs in Free Agency. Snyder is like the dad with a gambling problem that acts like a little kid by spending all his money on lottery tickets. In all seriousness, I think Marcus Peters is a first round corner who will not fall past this pick if he slips to the second round.

Previous Pick: Tre Jackson, G, Florida State
Chicago Bears: Eddie Goldman, DT, Florida State

Chicago needs a 3-4 nose tackle. Eddie Goldman has the versatility to play 4-3 defensive tackle or 3-4 nose tackle.

Previous Pick: A.J. Johnson, MLB, Tennessee
New York Giants: Ifo Ekpre-Olomu, CB, Oregon

Ifo Ekpre-Olomu was a first round corner before his injury near the end of the season. I'm sure the Giants would love to add him in round 2.

Previous Pick: Alex Carter, CB, Stanford
St. Louis Rams: Cameron Erving, C, Florida State

St. Louis needs a bookend tackle to Greg Robinson. Florida State offensive tackle Cameron Erving is the top offensive tackle available.

Previous Pick: Rob Havenstein, OT, Wisconsin
Atlanta Falcons: Mario Edwards, DE, Florida State

Atlanta will have to address defensive end in round 2 if they go offensive tackle in round 1. Mario Edwards has the size of a 4-3 right end that can play the LEO.

Previous Pick: Jordan Richards, S, Stanford
Cleveland Browns: Arik Armstead, DE, Oregon

Cleveland could use a 3-4 defensive end. Arik Armstead has the ability to be a starting 3-4 defensive end and is one of the better five technique players in this draft.

Previous Pick: Devin Funchess, TE, Michigan
New Orleans Saints: Sammie Coates, WR, Auburn

New Orleans needs a wide receiver. Now that Kenny Stills is gone it might be an appropriate time to add Sammie Coates.

Previous Pick: Nate Orchard, OLB, Utah
Minnesota Vikings: Denzel Perryman, MLB, Miami FL

Jasper Brinkley is gone. That means the Vikings go get a middle linebacker.

Previous Pick: Philip Dorsett, WR, Miami FL
San Francisco 49ers: Kevin Johnson, CB, Wake Forest

The 49ers need a cornerback. The 49ers finally address this need after getting a 3-4 middle linebacker in the first round.

Previous Pick: Marcus Peters, CB, Washington
Miami Dolphins: Dorial Green-Beckham, WR, Oklahoma

Miami will need to add a wide receiver in the first two rounds. Since I gave Miami Landon Collins in round 1, that means the Dolphins go with Dorial Green-Beckham here.

Previous Pick: Eddie Goldman, DT, Florida State
San Diego Chargers: Hau'Oli Kikaha, OLB, Washington

San Diego needs multiple 3-4 outside linebackers. Dwight Freeney and Jarrett Johnson both retired. Kikaha led the nation with 19.5 sacks, but durability issues kept him out of the first round.

Previous Pick: Malcolm Brown, DT, Texas
Kansas City Chiefs: Jordan Richards, SS, Stanford

Kansas City needs to find a strong safety to develop in case Eric Berry doesn't make a comeback. One safety with a lot of talent is Jordan Richards. Richards had an awesome Pro Day at Stanford, and he should go in the first two rounds.

Previous Pick: Arik Armstead, 3-4 DE, Oregon
Buffalo Bills: Donovan Smith, OT, Penn State

Buffalo needs to get an offensive tackle. Donovan Smith out of Penn State is the pick here as he provides a run blocking presence to open up running lanes for the newly acquired LeSean McCoy.

Previous Pick: Duke Johnson, RB, Miami FL
Houston Texans: Paul Dawson, MLB, TCU

Houston drafts for need with Dawson at middle linebacker after drafting Cody Prewitt at strong safety. Paul Dawson makes a lot of sense for a team that needs a 3-4 middle linebacker.

Previous Pick: Ramik Wilson, MLB, Georgia
Philadelphia Eagles: Tyler Lockett, WR, Kansas State

I'm not sure what Chip Kelly will draft. It could be anything from a bag of Popeyes Chicken to Jimbo Fisher. In all seriousness, I think Tyler Lockett would a candidate that the Eagles considered drafting as a slot receiver to eventually replace Riley Cooper in round 2.

Previous Pick: Ifo-Ekpre Olomu, CB, Oregon
Cincinnati Bengals: Devin Smith, WR, Ohio State

Cincinnati could use a slot receiver. Smith has the speed to adapt to the slot plus the Bengals already have Green and Sanu on the outside.

Previous Pick: Hau'oli Kikaha, OLB, Washington
Detroit Lions: Tevin Coleman, RB, Indiana

The Detroit Lions have to draft a running back. Tevin Coleman is the top running back on my board this late in the second round.

Previous Pick: Kevin White, CB, TCU
Arizona Cardinals: Steven Nelson, CB, Oregon State

Arizona needs another cornerback next to Patrick Peterson. Steven Nelson is one of the best boundary corners the 2015 NFL Draft has to offer.

Previous Pick: Stephone Anthony, MLB, Clemson
Pittsburgh Steelers: Anthony Harris, S, Virginia

Pittsburgh Steelers strong safety Troy Polamalu retired. One safety the Steelers loved at their Pro Day was Anthony Harris. Harris goes to Pittsburgh here in Round 2.

Previous Pick: Kurtis Drummond, S, Michigan State
Carolina Panthers: Rashad Greene, WR, Florida State

Carolina adds Rashad Greene here. Another Seminole to play next to Kelvin Benjamin.

Previous Pick: Mario Edwards, DE, Florida State
Baltimore Ravens: Shaq Thompson, OLB, Washington

Baltimore has two double digit sack artists in Terrell Suggs and Elvis Dumervil. Problem is both guys are in their 30's. Adding Shaq Thompson to groom for the future would be a great move. Thompson is a consistent tackler with quality run stuffing that excels in zone coverage where he drops back and covers. Learning behind guys like Suggs and Dumervil would help him correct his glaring weakness as a pass rusher.

Previous Pick: Donovan Smith, OT, Penn State
Denver Broncos: Devin Funchess, TE, Michigan

Peyton Manning needs a tight end now that Julius Thomas is gone. Owen Daniels is a short term option, and Virgil Green is a backup at best. Funchess may start out as a third stringer on this roster, but he's capable of moving up the depth chart if he puts the work in.

Previous Pick: Chaz Green, OT, Florida
Dallas Cowboys: Michael Bennett, DT, Ohio State

I have a really sick feeling that Jerry Jones will fall in love with one of the prospects on Oregon or Ohio State only to watch him bust after reaching for him in the second round. Michael Bennett has to be the odds on favorite, but I would not dismiss the idea of that player being Arik Amsted if he slips this fall or Devin Smith out of Ohio State.

Defensive tackle fills a huge need for the Cowboys. Besides it's not like the Cowboys have many other lucrative options at this point, unless they reach for one of these rookies like the Patriots did only to watch it backfire.
Indianapolis Colts: Jay Ajayi, RB, Boise State

Jay Ajayi would be a good back to develop for the future. He can get more experience by splitting carries with Frank Gore.

Previous Pick: Steven Nelson, CB, Oregon State
Green Bay Packers: Stephone Anthony, MLB, Clemson

Green Bay really needs a 3-4 middle linebacker. Stephone Anthony could be a good value pick at this point.

Previous Pick: Ameer Abudllah, RB, Nebraska
Seattle Seahawks: Justin Hardy, WR, East Carolina

I gave Seattle Justin Hardy in the first round of my last mock before they traded their pick to the Saints for Jimmy Graham. Now Hardy has to suffer by waiting another round for the Seahawks call his name. Oh the humanity.

Previous Pick: Antwan Goodley, WR, Baylor
New England Patriots: Shaq Mason, G, Georgia Tech

Shaq Mason has the versatility to play anywhere on the interior offensive line. I think Bill Belichick is going to want a player with Mason's versatility if he drafts an offensive lineman.

Previous Pick: Jamison Crowder, WR, Duke
