     The Texans could spend a mid-round pick on a right tackle who could potentially challenge for a starting job.

     Pick change; previously Billy Turner, OT
     
     
142. Washington Redskins: Michael Schofield, OT, Michigan
     Right tackle Tyler Polumbus will be a free agent after this season, so the Redskins may want to add a potential replacement.
     
     
143. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Lamin Barrow, ILB, LSU
     The Buccaneers need to get stronger in the middle of their defense, and they've apparently taken a liking to Lamin Barrow, as you can see in the NFL Draft Prospect Visits List.
     
     
144. Jacksonville Jaguars: Rob Herron, WR, Wyoming
     Considering that Justin Blackmon is suspended indefinitely, the Jaguars will want to add some depth to their receiving corps.
     
     Pick change; previously Brandon Coleman, WR
     
     
     
     
145. Cleveland Browns: Terrance Mitchell, CB, Oregon
     The Browns could use an upgrade across from Joe Haden, but this pick is about adding needed depth at the position.
     
     
146. Seattle Seahawks: Antone Exum, CB, Virginia Tech
     The Seahawks will also need depth at corner, given that Brandon Browner and Walter Thurmond both left.
     
     Pick change; previously Xavier Grimble, TE
     
     
147. Atlanta Falcons: Crockett Gilmore, TE, Colorado State
     Tony Gonzalez could always return, but the Falcons need to add another tight end because chances are that he's gone for good.
     
     
148. Minnesota Vikings: Jerick McKinnon, RB, Georgia Southern
     The Vikings need some depth behind Adrian Peterson with Toby Gerhart gone.
     
     
149. Buffalo Bills: Kelcy Quarles, DT, South Carolina
     Now that the Bills are moving back to the 4-3, they'll need some depth in their defensive interior.
     
     
150. Jacksonville Jaguars: Gabe Ikard, C, Oklahoma
     Here's some more offensive line help for the Jaguars, who could use someone to challenge for the center job.
     
     
151. Tennessee Titans: David Fales, QB, San Jose State
     The Titans don't have a young quarterback behind Jake Locker whom they can groom, unless you want to count Tyler Wilson.
     
     
152. New York Giants: Calvin Barnett, DT, Oklahoma State
     Yet another defensive tackle, thanks to the Giants' glaring lack of depth up front.
     
     Pick change; previously James Hurst, OT
     
     
     
     
153. St. Louis Rams: Ed Stinson, DE/DT, Alabama
     The Rams may want to add some depth on the defensive line, and perhaps a successor for Kendall Langford in a year or two.
     
     Pick change; previously Rob Herron, WR
     
     
154. New York Jets: Marqueston Huff, S, Wyoming
     The Jets have to address more issues in their secondary. They signed Ed Reed during the season, but that didn't work out so well.
     
     
155. Miami Dolphins: Andre Williams, RB, Boston College
     Daniel Thomas is as good as gone, so the Dolphins may want to bring in a potential new No. 2 running back behind Knowshon Moreno.
     
     
156. Chicago Bears: Kevin Pierre-Louis, LB, Boston College
     The Bears must add some much-needed talent to their very thin linebacking corps.
     
     
157. Pittsburgh Steelers: Anthony Steen, G, Alabama
     The Steelers don't have a big need for offensive linemen, despite what some might think, but they do have to find some depth.
     
     Pick change; previously Charles Leno, OT/G
     
     
158. Dallas Cowboys: James Gayle, DE, Virginia Tech
     Considering their major need for pass-rushers, it wouldn't surprise me if the Cowboys doubled up at defensive end during the draft.
     
     
159. Jacksonville Jaguars: Walt Aikens, CB, Liberty
     The Jaguars definitely need some help at corner to help combat Andrew Luck.
     
     
160. Arizona Cardinals: Mike Davis, WR, Texas
     The Cardinals lost Andre Roberts, so they may want to find a new tertiary option for Carson Palmer.
     
     
     
     
161. Green Bay Packers: Tajh Boyd, QB, Clemson
     Mike McCarthy told the media that he wants to draft a quarterback early. Can you blame him after what happened this past season?
     
     Pick change; previously Ryan Grant, WR
     
     
162. Philadelphia Eagles: Taylor Hart, DE/DT, Oregon
     The Eagles could use two selections on defensive linemen because they are a bit thin up front.
     
     Pick change; previously Josh Mauro, DE/DT
     
     
163. Kansas City Chiefs: Charles Leno, OT/G, Boise State
     After allowing Branden Albert to walk, the Chiefs will want to address the tackle position at some point during the middle rounds if they can't do anything about it in free agency.
     
     Pick change; previously Matt Patchan, OT
     
     
164. Cincinnati Bengals: Michael Sam, DE, Missouri
     Marvin Lewis, who has never been one to worry about locker room distractions, may want Michael Sam to help replace Michael Johnson.
     
     
     
     
165. San Diego Chargers: Ryan Grant, WR, Tulane
     Keenan Allen is coming off an outstanding rookie campaign, but the Chargers need to bring in another reliable receiver for Philip Rivers.
     
     Pick change; previously Ed Stinson, DE/DT
     
     
166. Indianapolis Colts: Ty Zimmerman, S, Kansas State
     The Colts lost Antoine Bethea to the 49ers, so they may want to add a safety during the 2014 NFL Draft.
     
     Pick change; previously Jonathan Dowling, S
     
     
167. New Orleans Saints: Deandre Coleman, DE/DT, California
     The Saints, who are still transitioning into their 3-4, could use some depth up front behind Cameron Jordan and Akiem Hicks.
     
     
168. Carolina Panthers: Ross Cockrell, CB, Duke
     It shouldn't surprise anyone if the Panthers double up on either position in their thin secondary.
     
     
169. New Orleans Saints: Tyler Larsen, C, Utah State
     The Saints are very thin on the offensive interior, especially at center.
     
     
170. San Francisco 49ers: Adrian Hubbard, DE/OLB, Alabama
     The 49ers may want some pass-rushing insurance just in case Aldon Smith gets into trouble again.
     
     
171. Denver Broncos: Storm Johnson, RB, Central Florida
     Knowshon Moreno is gone, while the coaching staff doesn't appear to have much faith in Ronnie Hillman.
     
     Pick change; previously Ben Gardner, DE
     
     
172. Seattle Seahawks: Aaron Lynch, DE, South Florida
     The Seahawks lost Chris Clemons, so they may want to add another pass-rusher during the draft.
     
     Pick change; previously Antone Exum, CB
     
     
173. Pittsburgh Steelers: Ron Powell, DE/OLB, Florida
     The Steelers will be looking to add some pass-rushing depth with LaMarr Woodley gone.
     
     
174. New York Giants: Phillip Gaines, CB, Rice
     Most teams are in favor of adding a corner late in the draft, and the Giants haven't addressed the position yet.
     
     Pick change; previously Calvin Barnett, DT
     
     
175. Baltimore Ravens: Richard Rodgers, TE, California
     Owen Daniels was added for only one year, so the Ravens may want a more long-term solution behind Dennis Pitta.
     
     
176. Green Bay Packers: Bryan Stork, C, Florida State
     The Packers didn't re-sign Evan Dietrich-Smith for some reason, so now they'll have to find a new center.
