11. Minnesota Vikings – CB Trae Waynes

The Minnesota Vikings will have potential to take over the Seattle Seahawks as having the best secondary in the NFL if Waynes proves to be the player the Vikings expect him to be. All signs point to this being the pick.

12. Cleveland Browns – DT Danny Shelton

The Browns very well could go Marcus Mariota, but that would imply that they are giving up on a quarterback that they drafted just one season ago. The Browns need a player like Shelton to put in the middle of their 3-4 defense.

13. New Orleans Saints – OLB Shane Ray

Shane Ray could drop because of his recent failed drug test, but he will only drop out of the top ten. Ray is a good player and can give the Saints a solid edge rusher.

14. Miami Dolphins – DeVante Parker

I do see the Dolphins trying to trade up to take DeVante Parker and at ten overall is where they will go to try to get him. However, he is there at 14 for them to take and they desperately need to give Tannehill a serious threat. Parker is that guy.

15. San Francisco 49ers – DL Arik Armstead

There has been buzz that Armstead is the 49ers pick if he is there at 15 and in this case here he is. The 49ers get the guy that they wanted.

16. Houston Texans – WR Dorial Green-Beckham

The Houston Texans need to start planning for life without Andre Johnson. Green-Beckham, while he does have his problems, no doubt has a lot of talent. The Texans get a playmaker here.

17. San Diego Chargers – DE Alvin “Bud” Dupree

Dupree is a perfect fit for what the Chargers do on defense. A potential top 15 pick, Dupree fell right into the Chargers’ lap here at 17.

18. Kansas City Chiefs – WR Jalen Strong

The Chiefs need offensive weapons and bad. Strong has high potential. He is raw, but given the Chiefs’ need for weapons, Strong makes for a good fit.

19. Cleveland Browns – WR Breshad Perriman

Speaking of needing offensive weapons, with Josh Gordon missing time, the Browns are going to need to give Manziel or whoever is going to be quarterbacking the team, somebody to throw the ball to. Perriman is a very explosive weapon with a very high ceiling.

20. Philadelphia Eagles – QB Marcus Mariota

This was a match made in heaven, although I do believe they will have to go a lot higher to get him. Mariota and his college coach reunite.
