Nix and Swanson are perfect picks. ILB is very low on our list of needs. Mayo, Hightower, Collins can all play every single LB position, although Hightower struggles when he has to play the weak side. Spikes and Fletcher have a very good chance of being resigned. Now I dont think ILB is completely unlikely in the 3rd round, but there are other needs ahead of it. Collins can play ILB in their scheme? I was never under that impression since before he was drafted. I didnt think he could either when he was drafted, but he did a solid job during preseason. He has gotten most of his snaps as a 4-3 or 3-4 OLB during the regular season, but he could easily move inside if asked too. That being said Mayo or Hightower would get the start inside, if Spikes isnt resigned. Mayo's is best as an MLB in either 4-3 or 3-4 schemes, but Spikes is terrible at strong side or weak side LB. If Spikes isnt resigned Collins would probably play the weakside, Mayo inside, and Hightower on the strongside.

I feel a corner is higher priority than a receiver at this point with emerging No. 2 and 3 receivers he would be buried under the depth chart. I thought you guys had Aaron Williams opposite Gilmore? Has Williams not panned out as a CB2? No not really he was moved to strong safety because of his play style, and Leodis McKelvin is the second corner at the moment. But McKelvin simply isn't good enough to compete with good recievers. EDIT - The Bills would probably only take a reciever if a real good one drops to them.

Isn't that awfully high for Ifo Ekpre-Olomu? While they do need DBs, I don't see them reaching for one. I'd be okay with Mike Evans if he can be the guy or RaShede Hageman to be their DE/DT of the future.
I like Matthews, but I wouldn't hesitate to take to take a CB either seeing as the Steeler's DBs are getting older. Lamarcus Joyner is likely my far and away favorite if he's available. If he was 3 inches taller he'd get some serious looks in the first round. He's got the flexibility to play slot corner or FS. that way it gives the Steelers another option not named Will Allen to play FS, and he can play nickel CB right away and give them depth they desperately need. Plus the guy loves to tackle which is a must need attribute. I wouldn't mind Bradley Roby or Kyle Fuller either.

I like the Robinson pick, but Dennard or Mosley would be better. They're not as great needs, but the Titans brass doesn't want to draft another lineman so high.
In the second round, I also like taking AJ McCarron, but again, Shazier is sitting right there, and so is Micheal Sam. The Titans won't skip the chance to fill a defensive need twice being on the edge of playoff contention.
If I were the Titans I would take Mosley in round 1 and McCarron in round 2, but I think the Titans would take Robinson and Sam.
I really wish we had a third round pick. Hopefully we get a comp 4th for losing Jared Cook but I doubt it.
