21. Green Bay Packers

Player Name: C.J. Mosley
Position, School: LB, Alabama

Mosley is a steal here for the Packers. They can go defensive end, linebacker or safety position at No. 21 and Mosley is the best player on the board right now.

Green Bay just needs more speed in the middle of its defense and Mosely is a very quick linebacker and a tackling machine. The opportunity to add a linebacker the quality of Mosley will pay dividends down the road.

22. Philadelphia Eagles

Player Name: Brandin Cooks
Position, School: WR, Oregon State

The wide receiver position is one of need for Chip Kelly’s team after the release of DeSean Jackson. Fortunately for them they have plenty of options to choose from at this point.

Going defense is still an option, but Cooks can be a dynamic element to the Eagles’ passing game. He’s an elite athlete that can both run past defenders and do well in tight spaces. It could be hard to pass on him here.

23. Kansas City Chiefs

Player Name: Odell Beckham Jr.
Position, School: WR, LSU

The Chiefs need a weapon opposite Dwayne Bowe and get a steal here with Beckham. The LSU product is a productive target that could make Alex Smith and the Kansas City offense potent.

He has the speed to make plays after the catch and is one of the more sure-handed receivers in the draft.

24. Cincinnati Bengals

Player Name: Kyle Fuller
Position, School: CB, Virginia Tech

Adding a long, rangy athlete like Fuller would help the Bengals a ton. They need a corner badly and Fuller is a pretty good option here.

Fuller is a physical corner that is a good value pick at this point.
