2018 NFL Draft Mock Draft: Early Look at 2018 NFL Draft
By Jon Dove
29. Dallas Cowboys- Maurice Hurst, DL, Michigan
The Dallas Cowboys added some important defensive pieces in the 2017 NFL Draft, but the unit is far from complete. They need someone on the interior of the defensive line that can create problems in the backfield. Maurice Hurst is quickly establishing himself as a force in the trenches.
30. Oakland Raiders- Derrius Guice, RB, LSU
Marshawn Lynch and the Oakland Raiders is a match made in heaven. However, it’s hard to predict how Lynch’s body will respond to missing all of last year. Even if he produces, the Raiders need to find a younger option like Derrius Guice for the future.
31. Atlanta Falcons- Billy Price, OG, Ohio State
The Atlanta Falcons failed to find a long-term replacement for the retired Chris Chester. Their improved offensive line play was one of the major reasons they were able to reach the Super Bowl. Billy Price is an interior offensive line prospect who could fill this need.
32. New England Patriots- Vita Vea, DL, Washington
Vita Vea could’ve been a 1st round prospect had he entered the 2017 NFL Draft. He’s a massive individual who dominates the line of scrimmage. His ability to occupy space is his greatest attribute, but he has also flashed some pass-rush potential.
