CBS sports round 2 mock

[chop]

33. Tennessee Titans -- Dorial Green-Beckham, WR, Oklahoma: The Titans brought in the troubled wide receiver for a visit and the talent might make him worth the risk here.

34. Tampa Bay Buccaneers -- T.J. Clemmings, OT, Pittsburgh: Whoever is under center for the Bucs won't have a chance for success in the NFL if he doesn't have time to throw, an issue Clemmings will help alleviate.

35. Oakland Raiders -- Jake Fisher, OT, Oregon: The Raiders addressed wide receiver in the first round to help Derek Carr. An offensive lineman in the second round would also bring a smile to the face of Oakland's quarterback.

36. Jacksonville Jaguars -- T.J. Yeldon, RB, Alabama: The Jaguars want to address the running back depth chart at some point in the draft and it might surprise some to see Yeldon as the third back drafted.

37. New York Jets -- Brett Hundley, QB, UCLA: With Geno Smith and Ryan Fitzpatrick on the roster, Hundley will be able to sit and learn in New York until he's ready for the field.

38. Washington Redskins -- Randy Gregory, DE/OLB, Nebraska: At some point in the second round, Gregory's talent becomes worth the risk and Washington could end up with a steal at this point.

39. Chicago Bears -- Eli Harold, DE/OLB, Virginia: With the Bears transitioning to a 3-4 scheme, Harold gives Chicago a young, up-and-coming edge rusher with a bright future.

40. New York Giants -- Landon Collins, SS, Alabama: The Giants have question marks at safety and Collins is one of the most physical run defenders in this draft class.

41. St. Louis Rams -- Bryce Petty, QB, Baylor: The Rams traded for Nick Foles this offseason, but he is a free agent after the season and Petty would offer a development option at quarterback.

42. Atlanta Falcons -- Mario Edwards, DE, Florida State: While this might seem like a repeat pick after Vic Beasley in the first round, Edwards is a different animal and loading up the front seven isn't a bad strategy.

43. Cleveland Browns -- Jaelen Strong, WR, Arizona State: The Browns bypassed offensive skill players in the first round, but have one fall to them in the second round with Strong still on the board.

44. New Orleans Saints -- Owa Odighizuwa, DE/OLB, UCLA: The Saints are expected to draft defense heavy and Odighizuwa would be a good fit as a versatile rusher in Rob Ryan's scheme.

45. Minnesota Vikings -- Benardrick McKinney, LB, Mississippi State: McKinney has his question marks in coverage, but he's tough downhill with the testing numbers that will get him drafted in the top-50 range.

46. San Francisco 49ers -- Jalen Collins, CB, LSU: Collins is far from a polished prospect, but the physical tools are off the charts and a team will take a chance on those raw traits in the top 50.

47. Miami Dolphins -- Eric Kendricks, LB, UCLA: A prospect the Dolphins will likely consider in the first round, Kendricks is a tackling machine who can play inside or outside in Miami's defense.

48. San Diego Chargers -- Eddie Goldman, DT, Florida State: The Chargers could use defensive-line depth in the front seven and Goldman has the versatility to play in odd and even fronts.

49. Kansas City Chiefs -- Donovan Smith, OL, Penn State: Whether it's at tackle or guard, Smith offers position versatility and a player with Pro Bowl talent if he's pushed and groomed.

50. Buffalo Bills -- Carl Davis, DT, Iowa: The Bills might already have the most talented defensive line in the league, but Kyle Williams turns 32 over the summer and Davis provides depth.

51. Houston Texans -- Devin Smith, WR, Ohio State: Houston hasn't had the best luck drafting wide receivers after the first round, but Smith can be the receiver that the Texans hoped Keshawn Martin would be.

52. Philadelphia Eagles -- Eric Rowe, CB, Utah: Chip Kelly went back to his old stomping grounds with a first-round wide receiver from the Pac-12 and could do so again here, but at cornerback with a Pac-12 defender.

53. Cincinnati Bengals -- Danielle Hunter, DE, LSU: The Bengals ranked near the bottom of the league in sacks and pocket pressures last season and a player of Hunter's ability will help upgrade the pass rush.

54. Detroit Lions -- Tevin Coleman, RB, Indiana: Running back isn't the team's top need, but adding Coleman to the backfield with Joique Bell and Theo Riddick only makes the offense stronger.

55. Arizona Cardinals -- P.J. Williams, CB, Florida State: With Antonio Cromartie gone, the Cardinals could use more cornerback depth and Williams has starting potential very early in his career.

56. Pittsburgh Steelers -- Maxx Williams, TE, Minnesota: With Heath Miller turning 33 years old this season, Williams would be an ideal understudy and eventual replacement for the Steelers.

57. Carolina Panthers -- Preston Smith, DE, Mississippi State: Despite drafting Kony Ealy in the second round last year, the Panthers need more depth on the defensive line and Smith provides versatility inside and outside.

58. Baltimore Ravens -- A.J. Cann, G, South Carolina: With both Kelechi Osemele and Marshal Yanda entering the final years of their contracts, Cann would be an excellent value pick for the Ravens here.

59. Denver Broncos -- Ali Marpet, G, Hobart: Denver has a few issues to address on the offensive line and Marpet could be the best interior lineman in this draft class three years down the road.

60. Dallas Cowboys -- Duke Johnson, RB, Miami (Fla.): The Cowboys stayed put at No. 27 and got their defensive back and it could happen again here in the second if they wait at No. 60 and see if their running back falls to them.

61. Indianapolis Colts -- Ronald Darby, CB, Florida State: With Greg Toler entering the final year of his contract, Darby projects as his replacement in 2016, giving the Colts depth in the meantime.

62. Green Bay Packers -- Jordan Phillips, DT, Oklahoma: While the effort tends to go up and down, Phillips has impressive movement skills for a player with his size.

63. Seattle Seahawks -- Sammie Coates, WR, Auburn: A player with the size and home-run speed of Coates will give Russell Wilson and the Seahawks a true deep threat.

64. New England Patriots -- Ameer Abdullah, RB, Nebraska: New England's current backfield could use an injection of explosiveness and Abdullah brings burst and versatility as a pass-catcher.

I don't understand how that guy can be so open, so deep, so often. Either he has the worlds best luck with busted coverages or he's simply that good at getting over the top of DB's.

His measurables are off the charts.
He's a very smart kid.
He's got good size (And actually uses it well)
and just watch the middle (tunnel) screen he scores on vs Nebraska. He looks unreal. I know it's just one play, but I can't remember seeing a guy walk away from an entire defense like that.

Yep....28 YPC for the season. He had 12 TDs but would have had more but he had to slow up multiple times to come back to the ball.

He's just that fast, I guess. We've been missing a legitimate deep threat since Avery got hurt.

He seems to play faster than he times, not that he times slow or anything. It looks like he tracks the deep ball real well. A true deep thread t stretch the field. When i watch him play though, I can picture him in a Seattle uniform.

When I watch this video, here's what I'm seeing.

A guy with blazing speed, and great explosion.
A guy who uses his body well
- Look at how he walls off defenders on fades
- Look at how he rips past press cbs
A guy who (I know this sounds corny) friggin wants it. He doesn't go down easily, and I love that.

He is best version of Donnie Avery right now with potential for more in some prospect projectors eyes.

Run deep. Or run and comeback. Or if the cushion is huge quick pass for some easy yards.

30-40 yards per game.

One of my favorite college WR's is Rashad Greene from FSU. Any chance he would be there in the 3rd?

He's a receiver smith can't overthrow. Yes, he'd be great to have here.

Maybe you're right.

We'll have a slightly better chance of completing the six deep balls Smith will attempt this year.

[ThaVirus]

Shit. I just turned this into an Alex Smith thread.

Disregard my previous comment.

Alex Smith will never go crazy with it, but if you give him protection and a legitimate deep threat, he's shown he will take some shots.

The homers are seeing a guy that put up 3,700 yards and 29 TD's in his career in a power conference. A guy who ran a 4.4 40, runs great routes, catches the ball well, played outside in high level D1, was well coached and ran multiple routes, has great character and happens to play for a local team. You can't find anyone that watched him in games or going through the draft process that don't have great things to say about him. The one knock is his size, and the easy assumption that he can only be a slot guy. He can play outside, and his skills fit this offense.

All the mock drafts had Stephone Anothony, and Laken Tomlinson, and Cedric Ogbuehi going in the 2nd or even 3rd round. Just because mock drafts "put his value as a 3rd rounder" doesn't mean it's how the NFL actually values these guys. I expect Lockett to go in the 2nd round, so if we want him, we'll have to pull the trigger at 49. Obviously all of this is my own opinion and I could be 100% wrong. But that's why I want the Chiefs to take him, not because he was a Wildcat.

All that said ---- it would be really hard not to take Kendricks if he's there at 49. It's a deep WR draft, while LB falls off after the 4th/5th guy or so.

I think so. He's a bit small did have a few easy drops.

He and Crowder both might be there in the 3rd...

Smith attempts more deep passes than he gets credit for. He just isn't very accurate with it, and IMO, he overthrows it a lot.

And teams still have to respect his deep speed so he creates space. It only takes one deep ball a game to change an outcome and whether or not Alex is a mad bomber, it's Devin that's going to earn respect because like I said, it just takes one shot downfield.

But I've said it 100 times - speed gets used in this offense a bunch of different ways and very few of them are running 9 routes. Devin Smith is so smooth out of his cuts that he's an absolutely stellar fit for us should he get that far.
