16. Atlanta Falcons
Yetur Gross-Matos | EDGE | Penn State
This defensive line needs help across the board, so this pick is about finding the best value, either on the edge or along the interior. In this scenario, the Ditry Birds opt for edge help with a stellar pass rusher who could replace either Vic Beasley or Takk McKinley.
17. Dallas Cowboys
Grant Delpit | S | LSU
This defensive front needs help across the board, but the value just isn’t there in this scenario. Instead, the Cowboys opt for a playmaker on the back end of the secondary, where they could also use an upgrade. Delpit was slowed by injuries for much of this season, but when healthy, he’s an impact player all over the field.
18. Miami Dolphins (from PIT)
Tyler Biadasz | OL | Wisconsin
If the Dolphins want to keep Tua healthy, they need huge upgrades in the trenches. The best value in this scenario is Biadasz, who would give Miami a smart, physical anchor for the interior of their offensive line. His presence would instantly make life easier for their new franchise quarterback.
19. Oakland Raiders (from CHI)
Tee Higgins | WR | Clemson
After the Antonio Brown debacle, the Raiders are still in need of a dynamic pass-catcher who can take the top off opposing defenses and also make plays at every level of the field. Higgins has a rare combination of size, length, athleticism and body control that would make him the perfect fit.
20. Jacksonville Jaguars (from LAR)
Kristian Fulton | CB | LSU
After spending their earlier first-rounder for an offensive playmaker, the Jags spend this one on one for the other side of the ball. After trading Jalen Ramsey to the Rams, Jacksonville uses one of the picks they received to replace him with a big, athletic cover man in Fulton.
