46. Indianapolis Colts- Alvin Kamara, RB, Tennessee

Alvin Kamara is a versatile running back who can work between the tackles, attack the edge and contribute in the passing game. He’d be a great complement to Frank Gore who is on the back-end of his career.

47. Baltimore Ravens- D’Onta Foreman, RB, Texas

The Ravens need a big-bodied running back capable of working between the tackles. D’Onta Foreman is a powerful runner who also has the speed to break off some long runs.

48. Minnesota Vikings- Malik McDowell, DL, Michigan State

Malik McDowell is a top-20 talent in this draft, but his lack of effort is a major concern. Mike Zimmer is the type of coach who will push McDowell to get the most out of his raw talent.

49. Washington Redskins- Joe Mixon, RB, Oklahoma

The Redskins are an organization that has never been shy about taking risks. They have a need at the running back position and could get a huge upgrade by selecting Joe Mixon. He’s an elite talent who would’ve come off  the board early in the 1st round if he didn’t have character concerns.

50. Tampa Bay Buccaneers-Tim Williams, Edge, Alabama

Tim Williams is to effective of a pass rusher to last much longer. The Buccaneers can take advantage of his falling stock and add another high-end pass rusher to the mix. This team is quickly become a legitimate contender.

51. Denver Broncos- Zach Cunningham, LB, Vanderbilt

Zach Cunningham is still a bit raw as a player, but he has the top-end athleticism to be a productive player. The Denver Broncos are still looking for someone to be the long-term replacement for Danny Trevathan.
