25. Pittsburgh Steelers: Adoree’ Jackson, CB, USC

The Steelers have struggled mightily in the secondary in recent years. While first-round rookie cornerback Artie Burns will help, he does not solve all of their problems.

Adoree’ Jackson is an extremely fast and athletic player with fantastic upside at the CB position. He is a bit raw, but his coverage skills are solid. This is a perfect situation of where value meets a need for the Steelers.

26. Cincinnati Bengals: Reuben Foster, LB, Alabama

Reuben Foster will take over as the main man in the middle for the Alabama defense this season. He is a physical linebacker with impressive quickness and athleticism for the position.

Foster has a bright NFL future ahead of him and would be a perfect fit for the Bengals going forward.

27. Seattle Seahawks: Ethan Pocic, OL, LSU

The Seahawks have a roster loaded with talent, but have obvious holes on the offensive line. Ethan Pocic is a mean and nasty offensive lineman who would help solidify the Seahawks’ front.

Pocic will not be an NFL tackle, but he has major upside at center or either guard position. A talented prospect for the Seahawks who fills a painfully obvious need.

28. Kansas City Chiefs: Derek Barnett, EDGE, Tennessee

Not long ago, edge defender was a big-time positive for the Chiefs. However, with an aging Tamba Hali, Justin Houston constantly dealing with injuries and Dee Ford under-performing, it has become an area of need.

Derek Barnett is an extremely talented pass rusher with strong natural upside. Barnett is certainly raw, but his natural talent would fit great with the Chiefs.

Next: No. 29-32
