Complete coverage: 2017 Draft Tracker Grades: Round 4 Round 5 Round 6 Round 7 2017 NFL Draft Round 2 33 A+ select: Kevin King, CB Daniel Murphy Jersey , Love this kid. Love this pick. Smart move by Ted Thompson. King is a hell of a corner. 34 B+ select: Cam Robinson, OT, They needed to get help up front, so this makes sense -- if he's focused. He can play left tackle, guard or right tackle. 35 A select: Malik McDowell, DT, Michigan State This is another really good pick early in the round. He has top-10 talent, but there are some effort questions. Right team here. 36 A select: Budda Baker, S, WashingtonI love his game. He is a play-making safety who will hit you and can cover. Reminds me of former Colt Bob Sanders. 37 B+ Bills select: Zay Jones, WR, East Carolina He caught a ton of pa ses at East Carolina and will be a nice replacement for Robert Woods. He will be a 75-catch player in a year. 38 B+ select: Forrest Lamp, OL, Western Kentucky They landed a player some scouts think is the best offensive lineman in the draft. And it fills a big-time need. 39 C select: Marcus Maye, S, Florida It's weird to see them go safety-safety with so many needs. Maye is a solid player, but why two safeties? 40 B- Jake McGee Jersey select: Curtis Samuel, WR/RB, Ohio State He played running back and receiver, but I think he's a slot guy in the NFL. They need that in their offense. 41 B Vikings select: Dalvin Cook, RB, Florida State From a talent standpoint, it's a steal. He has star ability, but there are concerns off the field. 42 B select: Marcus Williams, S, Utah There were some scouts who thought he was the second-best safety in the draft. But was it really a need? 43 B select: Sidney Jones, CB, Washington There is risk coming off the torn Achilles tendon, but he could be a steal if it works out. And it is a big-time need. 44 C Rams select: Gerald Everett, TE, South Alabama After taking Tyler Higbee last year, this is an odd pick. They need help on their line and in the secondary. 45 C- Bears select: Adam Shaheen, TE, Ashland They are a team that needs weapons, and this kid is a player the scouts really liked. But they had other pre sing needs. 46 B+ select: Quincy Wilson, CB, Florida This is a need pick and they land a heck of a corner. He had first-round talent in the eyes of some personnel men. 47 B select: Tyus Bowser, OLB, Houston They needed to upgrade their edge rush, and this is kid who has moved up a lot of boards in recent months. A good, solid pick. 48 B Bengals select: Joe Mixon, RB, Oklahoma From a talent standpoint, this is a big hit. Might be the best runner in the draft. But there is that baggage. 49 B select: Ryan Anderson, OLB, Alabama Anderson is weird body guy for Blank Jersey an edge rusher, but he plays hard and knows how to get to the 50 B+ Justin Evans, SS, Texas AM He has great range, but he isn't a great tackler. It is a position of need, so I like it. 51 B select: DeMarcus Walker, DE, Florida State He was a productive player in college, a good pa s rusher, and they need help up front. 52 Chris Rusin Jersey B select: DeShone Kizer, QB, Browns They finally take a quarterback, so give them credit. He has a ton of talent. 53 C select: Teez Tabor, CB, Florida They need corner help, but he doesn't run well and he didn't do a lot to impre s in the offseason with his testing. 54 B select: Raekwon McMillan, LB, Ohio State This is a need pick of a good football player. He will be a productive starter. 55 A select: Dalvin Tomlinson, DT, Alabama I love this kid. He is a tough, physical player who loves the game. That is a hit. 56 B select: Obi Melifonwu, S, Connecticut A lot of scouts thought he was a first-round talent. He is raw, but what a physical freak. 57 B+ select: Zach Cunningham, LB, Vanderbilt He made a lot of tackles in a big-time conference. The Texans linebackers were an i sue last year -- especially in coverage. 58 B Seahawks select: Ethan Pocic, C, LSU They need help on their line, but he's a center, and Justin Britt was their best lineman at center last year. 59 B select: Tanoh Kpa sagnon, OLB/DE, Villanova He is a raw, big, physical player, but he will have a learning curve. But he fits with what they do. 60 Trevor Story Jersey A select: Chidobe Awuzie, DB, Colorado Getting a player this talented in this spot is a big time steal for the Cowboys. 61 B Packers select: Josh Jones, S, NC State I like Jones as a player, and he will help them get past the lo s of Micah Hyde. 62 B- select: JuJu Smith-Schuster, WR, USC I don't think this was an overwhelming need, but he was productive in a good conference. 63 B- Bills select: Dion Dawkins, OG, Temple They need help on the line and this is a kid who has starting ability right away. He plays with a nasty streak. . 64 B- Panthers select: Taylor Moton, OT, Western Michigan It's about time they addre sed their offensive line. He was a good, solid player who held his own when matched against the big schools. Can play guard or tackle.
