29. Atlanta Falcons- Derek Barnett, Edge, Tennessee

Vic Beasley has been a terror off the edge this season for the Atlanta Falcons. His emergence has played a major role in the team’s success. However, the Falcons could use another passing rushing threat to make their defense more dangerous.

Derek Barnett isn’t going to wow anyone with his measurables, but he’s someone who gets the job done and knows how to produce.

30. Kansas City Chiefs- Malik Hooker, S, Ohio State

Malik Hooker is just a Redshirt Sophomore, but is at least considering entering the 2017 NFL Draft. He’s a tremendous athlete who has improved each week. Hooker would sever as a potential replacement for Eric Berry who figures to hit free agency this offseason.

31. Dallas Cowboys- Gareon Conley, CB, Ohio State

The Cowboys need to focus the majority of their draft picks on the defensive side of the ball. They have everything they need on offense, but the defense has holes on every level. Ohio State’s Gareon Conley is a high upside cornerback who could replace either Brandon Carr or Morris Claiborne.

32. New England Patriots- Jarrad Davis, LB, Florida

New England took a gamble when they traded Jamie Collins in the middle of the season. So far, they have been able to find adequate replacements. However, they don’t have a long-term replacement on the roster.

Jarrad Davis is a solid athlete who can make plays from sideline to sideline. He’s versatile enough to fit what the Patriots like to do on defense.
