Full disclosure, I'm not a football insider or draft expert. Just enjoy reading about it.

Round 1

Picks 1-16 Picks 17-32
17.
Vega Ioane , G , Penn State
I could see the Lions go a number of directions but offensive line needs an injection of youth.
18.
Dillon Thieneman , S , Oregon
One year of good productivity but Vikings can use this sort of player.
19.
Emmanuel McNeil-Warren , S , Toledo
McNeil-Warren fills a need. He may not be an elite player.
20.
Damon Wilson II , DE , Missouri
A bit of a luxury pick but Wilson can be a long-term answer at DE.
21.
Monroe Freeling , OT , Georgia
Bringing in a quality OT from the SEC is a huge value this late.
22.
Caleb Lomu , OT , Utah
With the injuries last year, can't imagine Harbaugh wouldn't go with offensive line here.
23.
Omar Cooper , WR , Indiana
Hard to say if Brown is out, but an injection of talented youth here is a great value. I don't see Cooper lasting past Browns regardless.
24.
Denzel Boston , WR , Washington
I think Browns would prefer Cooper, but Boston is a solid consolation prize.
25.
Kayden McDonald , DT , Ohio State
Quality player at a position that is a need.
26.
Cashius Howell , DE , Texas A&M
This is a decent value here.
27.
Avieon Terrell , CB , Clemson
I think San Fran would like to add an OT as an eventual replacement for HOFer Williams. I don't know if there is a great option in my mock, however.
28.
Blake Miller , OT , Clemson
Miller could go to SF but I feel like he is a slight reach here. Houston need this position badly.
29.
Jacob Rodriguez , LB , Texas Tech
Rodriguez makes a second instant-impact pick for KC.
30.
Germie Bernard , WR , Alabama
A good value pick here later in the draft. Doubling-down at WR seems a shock but definite need.
31.
Chase Bisontis , G , Texas A&M
A bit of a reach here but fills a need.
32.
Ty Simpson , QB , Alabama
This IS NOT a Seattle pick. I figure there is a nearly 0% chance they actually pick here. There's too much value to be had for a team that may move up to pick a QB with a 5th year option available. I could see Arizona moving up here.
