NFL mock draft, picks 28 through 32

28. Baltimore Ravens: Kenneth Murray, LB

I was very tempted to take a wide receiver here. However, with so much influx on the defensive side and Murray’s high ceiling I couldn’t pass this opportunity. Murray is explosive with exceptional range. He can play from sideline to sideline in coverage. His play recognition is out of this world. His only real draw comes from breaking away from blocks.

29. Tennessee Titans: Curtis Weaver, DE

Harold Landry took a massive step forward this past season. Its time to find him a running mate. Weaver is a perfect base end in the Titans defensive scheme. He possesses a powerful base, with heavy hands and a surprising amount of explosiveness. He has played everything from 3-4 OLB, to DE, to DT. His football IQ should allow him to pick up the playbook quickly and get him on the field year 1.

30. Green Bay Packers: Tristian Wirfs, RT

Bryan Baluga’s best days are likely behind him. I wouldn’t be surprised if Green Bay lets him go and elects to tap into the draft to replace him. Wirf’s is a bit of a tweener between G and T. However, with the relative strength of the offensive line around him I think he could thrive as the right tackle for Green Bay. Wirfs is quick out of his stance, has superb hand placement and good footwork.

31. San Francisco 49ers: Bryce Hall, CB

Hall has been all but written off by media. I have been seen him mock’d as late as the 3rd round in some drafts. Its absolutely crazy to me. Sure, he was injured in the beginning of the year. However, he is expected to make a full recovery before the draft. He led the NCAA last year in completion percentage allowed at 31.9%. He has All-Pro written all over him and could prove to be an absolute steal over the next several years.

32. Kansas City Chiefs: Cameron Dantzler, CB

The Chiefs have had one of the worst pass defenses over the past few years. With the majority of their cornerbacks hitting free agency, its time to recreate the secondary into something more formidable. Dantzler is a long and rangey corner who was one of the top cornerbacks in the SEC. He can play in just about any defensive scheme, is a willing tackler, and has a high football IQ. Dantzler has the potential to be the building block of the future in the Chiefs secondary.
