25. Pittsburgh Steelers- DeMarcus Walker, Edge, Florida State

The Pittsburgh Steelers are facing some possible turnover at the outside linebacker position. James Harrison can’t play forever and Jarvis Jones is a pending free agent. That doesn’t factor in the questions surround Bud Dupree’s development.

DeMarcus Walker is a tremendous athlete who is still learning the game. He’d be a nice piece of clay for the Pittsburgh coaches to mold.

26. Seattle Seahawks- Pat Elflein, C/G, Ohio State

Seattle’s offensive line is once again threatening to derail the team’s Super Bowl hopes. They need help across the unit and should target the top rated offensive lineman on their board. Pat Elflein is a versatile lineman who has played at a high level at both guard and center.

27. New York Giants- Jake Butt, TE, Michigan

Eli Manning knows how to make good use of the tight end position, but has been working with mediocre talent over the past few years. Jake Butt would give Eli someone to work down the seam while also pulling some coverage away from Odell Beckham Jr.

28. Oakland Raiders- Desmond King, CB, Iowa

The Raiders are set on the offensive side of the ball, but still need to add a few pieces on defense. They need to make a decision on DJ Hayden who has yet to live up to his draft status. Desmond King is a steady performer who should be able to step in and contribute from day one.
