The Packers are first up in the traditionally playoff team picks, thanks to their early exit in the 2013 postseason. What is going to happen in these last picks? Is there a trade back into the first on the horizon? Do the Seahawks really keep hold on #32?
Scroll on down the page to see a recap of the first 20 picks.
Round 1 - Pick 21 |
 |
||||
Green Bay Packers |
Acme Packing
|
||||
| Ha Ha Clinton Dix | S | Alabama | |||
|
Bears fans wanted him, and now he's on the enemy. He projects to make that defense good. |
|||||
Round 1 - Pick 22 |
 |
||||
Cleveland Browns |
Dawgs by
|
||||
| Johnny Manziel | QB | Texas | |||
|
Acquired from the Philadelphia Eagles, the Browns traded all over to take Manziel. So that happened. Best wishes in the football seventh circle, Johnny. |
|||||
Round 1 - Pick 23 |
 |
||||
Kansas City Chiefs |
Arrowhead
|
||||
| Dee Ford | DE | Auburn | |||
|
Dee Ford, edge rusher. Will help going after your Mannings and your Rivers'. |
|||||
Round 1 - Pick 24 |
 |
||||
Cincinnati Bengals |
Cincy Jungle |
||||
| Darqueze Dennard | CB | Michigan State | |||
|
First Michigan State first rounder in over a decade, Dennard brings something to a defensive backfield that could use a spark, as they hope to become the cream of the AFCN crop. |
|||||
Round 1 - Pick 25 |
 |
||||
San Diego Chargers |
Bolts From
|
||||
| Jason Verrett | CB | TCU | |||
|
Projected by many as more of a 2nd rounder, the run on cornerbacks is here. Verrett looks small, but is scrappy and plays hard. |
|||||
Round 1 - Pick 26 |
 |
||||
Philadelphia Eagles |
Bleeding
|
||||
| Marcus Smith | DE | Louisville | |||
|
Received from the Browns so Cleveland could get Manziel. Not as long as you'd like, and I feel it's too high, but should be able to contribute early as a situational pass rusher in a 3-4. |
|||||
Round 1 - Pick 27 |
 |
||||
Arizona Cardinals |
Revenge of
|
||||
| Deone Bucannon | S | Washington St | |||
|
Works well walking to the line, plays with size, should fit in well. Tough road ahead for him playing against the 49ers and Seahawks and maybe someday the Rams. |
|||||
Round 1 - Pick 28 |
 |
||||
Carolina Panthers |
Cat Scratch
|
||||
| Kelvin Benjamin | WR | FSU | |||
|
The Panthers clearly needed a WR. This is a good one to have for them. |
|||||
Round 1 - Pick 29 |
 |
||||
New England Patriots |
Pats Pulpit |
||||
| Dominique Easley | DT | Florida | |||
|
Easley is the kind of DT that the Patriots love. Not a huge surprise. |
|||||
Round 1 - Pick 30 |
 |
||||
San Francisco 49ers |
Niners Nation |
||||
| Jimmie Ward | S | N. Illinois | |||
|
4th safety in round 1. Lots of Bears fans currently praying that Emery knows what is going on. |
|||||
Round 1 - Pick 31 |
 |
||||
Denver Broncos |
Mile High
|
||||
| Bradley Roby | CB | Ohio State | |||
|
Eventually they'll find someone to help stop other offenses, right? |
|||||
Round 1 - Pick 32 |
 |
||||
Minnesota VIkings |
Daily Norseman |
||||
| Teddy Bridgewater | QB | Louisville | |||
|
The Vikings get a new QB, certain to take the job from day 1. AP years are getting shorter, need to do something to win now. |
