63. Kansas City Chiefs: Nickell Robey, CB, USC
    The Chiefs recently cut Stanford Routt, so the cornerback position will be a priority for them this offseason.

    Pick change; previously Carrington Byndom, CB
    
    
64. Jacksonville Jaguars: Joseph Randle, RB, Oklahoma State
    Rashad Jennings got his chance and failed miserably. The Jaguars need a competent backup running back behind Maurice Jones-Drew.
    
    Pick change; previously Andre Ellington, RB
    
    
65. Oakland Raiders: Kyle Long, OT, Oregon
    The Raiders will need to upgrade their offensive line. Khalif Barnes cannot be a starter in this league. Kyle Long would appeal to Oakland fans for obvious reasons.
    
    
66. Tennessee Titans: Travis Frederick, G/C, Wisconsin
    Chris Johnson has finally regained CJ2K form in recent weeks, but that doesn't mean the Titans can't use an upgrade or two on the offensive line. Help is needed on the interior, and Travis Frederick can play every position there.
    
    
    
    
    
67. Arizona Cardinals: Sean Porter, DE/OLB, Texas A&M
    The Cardinals' rush linebackers are inconsistent in terms of getting to the quarterback. O'Brien Schofield hasn't exactly proven that he's capable of staying healthy either.
    
    
68. Detroit Lions: Carrington Byndom, CB, Texas
    It's no secret that Detroit has major holes in its secondary. The Lions spent an early pick on Bullet Bill Bentley has been a bit of a disappointment thus far. Unfortunately, Detroit won't be able to see what he can do for the rest of the year because he's on injured reserve.
    
    Pick change; previously Cobi Hamilton, WR
    
    
69. Philadelphia Eagles: Bacarri Rambo, S, Georgia
    Nate Allen and Kurt Coleman have more missed tackles this season than any other safety tandem in the NFL, save for the Saints and Titans. They also blow tons of coverages each week. The Eagles must find at least one upgrade at the position.
    
    Pick change; previously Tony Jefferson, S
    
    
70. San Francisco 49ers: Justin Gilbert, CB, Oklahoma State
    Teams are always looking for cornerback depth, especially if they have extra picks. Besides, Carlos Rogers isn't playing as well this season. He's been solid at times, but has been inconsistent.
    
    
71. Miami Dolphins: Logan Ryan, CB, Rutgers
    The Dolphins have two second-round picks because they dealt Vontae Davis to the Colts, so they should probably use one of them on a replacement.
    
    
72. Cleveland Browns: Ryan Nassib, QB, Syracuse
    The Browns have a new front office, so they'll want to draft a quarterback in the middle rounds if Colt McCoy is traded.
    
    Pick change; previously Tank Carradine, DE
    
    
73. New Orleans Saints: Tank Carradine, DE, Florida State
    The Saints aren't getting much pressure on the quarterback. Cameron Jordan has improved in this department over the second half of the season, but Will Smith looks like a shell of his former self. He's due $10 million in 2013, so he obviously won't be back.
    
    Pick change; previously Brennan Williams, OT
    
    
74. San Diego Chargers: Landry Jones, QB, Oklahoma
    Philip Rivers will be a free agent after the 2014 season. Will the Chargers re-sign him to a long-term deal if he continues to choke in the clutch and show signs of regression? They should probably bring in a young quarterback as insurance.
    
    Pick change; previously Ryan Nassib, QB
    
    
    
    
    
75. Buffalo Bills: Cobi Hamilton, WR, Arkansas
    The Bills drafted a quarterback in the second round, so they'll need to find a weapon for him. Steve Johnson is currently the only downfield play-maker on Buffalo's roster.
    
    Pick change; previously Ryan Swope, WR
    
    
76. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Arthur Brown, LB, Kansas State
    The Buccaneers have two solid linebackers in Lavonte David and Mason Foster, but they need a third to upgrade the pedestrian Quincy Black.
    
    
77. New York Jets: Tyler Bray, QB, Tennessee
    The Jets need to take a chance on a young quarterback because Mark Sanchez is awful. They have to give their fans some hope, or they may lose more supporters than just Fireman Ed.
    
    Tyler Bray is very physically gifted, but he's a head case. If the Jets draft him, they have to bring in highly regarded offensive coaches to get the most out of him.
    
    
78. St. Louis Rams: Brennan Williams, OT, North Carolina
    More offensive line help for the Rams. Jason Smith was benched in favor of Barry Richardson and subsequently traded for turnstile Wayne Hunter.
    
    Pick change; previously Bacarri Rambo, S
    
    
79. Dallas Cowboys: Zac Dysert, QB, Miami of Ohio
    Tony Romo will turn 33 just prior to the 2013 NFL Draft. The Cowboys will have to think about bringing in a young quarterback.
    
    
80. Minnesota Vikings: Kenny Stills, WR, Oklahoma
    The Vikings have to add more talent to complement Christian Ponder. They need an upgrade across from Percy Harvin, as Jerome Simpson is way too inconsistent to be a No. 2 receiver.
    
    
81. Cincinnati Bengals: Robert Lester, S, Alabama
    The Bengals had a big need at safety, but they didn't address the position until the fifth round this past April. They'll put more effort into finding an upgrade the following offseason because they won't survive with Reggie Nelson and the benched Taylor Mays (or cornerback Nate Clements, who is playing out of position) as their starters.
    
    
82. Washington Redskins: Jamie Collins, DE/OLB, Southern Miss
    The Redskins learned the hard way that they have absolutely nothing at rush linebacker behind Brian Orakpo and Ryan Kerrigan.
    
    
    
    
    
83. Pittsburgh Steelers: Ryan Swope, WR, Texas A&M
    The Steelers never shy away from a play-maker if one provides good value. The butterfingered Mike Wallace could be gone after this season.
    
    Pick change; previously Joseph Randle, RB
    
    
84. Miami Dolphins: Gerald Hodges, LB, Penn State
    Something the Dolphins must do this offseason is find some linebacker depth because they're awfully thin there.
    
    
85. Seattle Seahawks: Jordan Reed, TE, Florida
    Adding play-makers for Russell Wilson has to be a priority for the Seahawks this offseason. Help is also needed at tight end.
    
    
86. Indianapolis Colts: William Gholston, DE/DT, Michigan State
    A major area of weakness on Indianapolis' stop unit is the defensive line. Multiple upgrades must be made.
    
    
    
    
    
87. New York Giants: Jordan Hill, DT, Penn State
    Marvin Austin has shown nothing thus far in his career, so the Giants may bring in another young defensive tackle.
    
    Pick change; previously Akeem Spence, DT
    
    
88. Green Bay Packers: Dion Sims, TE, Michigan State
    Jermichael Finley will be due close to $8 million in 2013, and Packer fans should be happy about that because Finley is one of the most overrated players in the NFL. He's terribly inconsistent and doesn't appear as though he'll ever live up to expectations.
    
    Pick change; previously Khaled Holmes, C
    
    
89. Baltimore Ravens: Tyrann Mathieu, CB, LSU
    The Ravens suddenly have glaring issues at cornerback. Lardarius Webb tore an ACL for the second time in his career, while Cary Williams is a free agent.
    
    It appears as though Tyrann Mathieu will enter the 2013 NFL Draft. The Ravens have taken a chance on another troubled cornerback.
    
    
90. Denver Broncos: Akeem Spence, DT, Illinois
    The Broncos spent a second-rounder this past April on Derek Wolfe, but he's playing defensive end and moving inside on nickel situations. That's why Denver still needs a ton of help at defensive tackle.
    
    Pick change; previously Stepfan Taylor, RB
    
    
91. San Francisco 49ers: E.J. Manuel, QB, Florida State
    Alex Smith probably won't be back with the 49ers next year, so Jim Harbaugh could use a mid-round pick on a young quarterback to groom behind Colin Kaepernick.
    
    
92. New England Patriots: Shawn Williams, S, Georgia
    Despite Steve Gregory's performance against the pathetic Jets, New England still has issues at safety it'll need to address this offseason.
    
    
93. Atlanta Falcons: Montee Ball, RB, Wisconsin
    Michael Turner is done. He's looked like he's been running in quicksand for most of this season, so he won't be on the roster much longer.
    
    Pick change; previously Mike Gillislee, RB
    
    
94. Houston Texans: Andre Ellington, RB, Clemson
    This doesn't fill any sort of current need, but Ben Tate will be a free agent after next season, so the Texans may want to trade him because they can't exactly pay top dollar to two running backs.
    
    Pick change; previously Phillip Thomas, S
