12. Buffalo Bills – Baker Mayfield, QB, Oklahoma

Last year’s Heisman winner heads to Buffalo. This could be a trade up situation for Buffalo who owns two first round picks, but in this scenario, the board fell their way so they can keep both picks to begin reloading the roster.

13. Washington Redskins – Vita Vea, NT, Washington

Washington couldn’t stop the run last year. Enter the 350-pound dancing bear that is Vita Vea who can be a run stuffer in the middle of the line and help free up last year’s No. 1 pick, Jonathan Allen to beat man blocking.

14. Green Bay Packers – Mike Hughes, CB, UCF

The Packers really need help in the secondary and they get an immediate starter in Mike Hughes. He came alive last year for the undefeated Knights and while a little unproven, has all the tools to be successful. He’ll also help provide a lift in the return game as a punt returner

15. Arizona Cardinals – Calvin Ridley, WR, Alabama

I don’t think the Cardinals take a quarterback here, although I expect them to take one in the later rounds. After signing Sam Bradford and Mike Glennon in free agency, they need someone besides Larry Fitzgerald to throw the ball to. Enter Ridley, the top receiver in the class.

16. Baltimore Ravens – Marcus Davenport, DE, UTSA

This is a great value for the Ravens who get Davenport, who could have gone in the top 10, to provide a young and promising edge rusher. Terrell Suggs is winding out his Hall of Fame career so Davenport can soak up a few pass rushing tricks of the trade from him before he retires.
