2017 NFL Mock Re-Draft: Round 5

Last update: Saturday, April 29, 2017.
This is a 2017 NFL Mock Re-Draft of Rounds 4 and 5 for Saturday’s NFL Draft coverage. With all of the trades that will go down, I don’t expect to get many of these right, but it’s still fun to speculate where the top prospects will go on Day 3 of the 2017 NFL Draft.

  1. Cleveland Browns: Isaiah Ford, WR, Virginia Tech
    The Browns could use a receiver after losing Terrelle Pryor in free agency.

  2. San Francisco 49ers: Elijah Qualls, DT, Washington
    With the 49ers moving to a 4-3, they’ll need to collect some pieces that happen to fit their defense.

  3. Chicago Bears: Eddie Jackson, S, Alabama
    It would’ve been a better move to draft Jamal Adams over Mitchell Trubisky, so here’s some needed safety help.



  4. Jacksonville Jaguars: Danny Isidora, G, Miami
    The Jaguars have to keep adding offensive talent around Blake Bortles to be completely sure that he’s not a bust.

  5. Atlanta Falcons: Jermaine Eluemunor, G, Texas A&M
    The Falcons haven’t addressed their dire need at guard yet, so they could do that here.

  6. New York Jets: Sam Tevi, OT, Utah
    The Jets are hurting at almost every position, so one of the many things they need is better tackle play.



  7. Los Angeles Chargers: Fish Smithson, S, Kansas
    If this pick seems a little fishy to you, it’s probably because the Chargers were expected to pick a safety much earlier than this, but haven’t done so yet.

  8. Carolina Panthers: Fred Ross, WR, Mississippi State
    The Panthers could add two receivers in the draft to really bolster the position.

  9. Cincinnati Bengals: Brad Kaaya, QB, Miami
    The Bengals could add another quarterback, just in case they get around to trading A.J. McCarron sometime soon.



  10. Washington Redskins: Nathan Peterman, QB, Pittsburgh
    The Redskins will likely take a quarterback at some point, just in case Kirk Cousins leaves next spring.

  11. Philadelphia Eagles: Damontae Kazee, CB, San Diego State
    The Eagles could stand to add another cornerback, given that Sidney Jones may not be ready to go until 2018.

  12. Atlanta Falcons: Carroll Phillips, DE/OLB, Illinois
    The Falcons could stand to add another pass-rusher, given that this is an area they definitely need to address.



  13. Arizona Cardinals: T.J. Logan, RB, North Carolina
    The Cardinals could look into adding a solid backup running back at this juncture.

  14. Indianapolis Colts: Josh Malone, WR, Tennessee
    Donte Moncrief will be a free agent after this season, while Phillip Dorsett has done nothing thus far, so the Colts could try to obtain a mid-round receiver.




  15. Baltimore Ravens: Anthony Walker, ILB, Northwestern
    The Ravens need to find another capable linebacker next to C.J. Mosley.

  16. New York Jets: Bucky Hodges, TE, Virginia Tech
    The Jets have lacked a potent tight end for quite a while, but that could change with this pick.

  17. San Francisco 49ers: Amba Etta-Tawo, WR, Syracuse
    The 49ers really have nothing at receiver outside of Pierre Garcon, so they could spend multiple picks on the position.

  18. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Keionta Davis, DE, UT-Chattanooga
    The Buccaneers need another edge rusher with Robert Ayers’ time running out.

  19. Buffalo Bills: Elijah Hood, RB, North Carolina
    The Bills obtained this pick when the Patriots signed Mike Gillislee, so they might as well find a replacement.

  20. Tennessee Titans: Elijah Lee, LB, Kansas State
    The Titans need to add a linebacker to the mix, as that might be the weak point of their roster now.



  21. Detroit Lions: Brian Allen, CB, Utah
    The Lions could be looking for another cornerback, as Nevin Lawson’s contract will expire after this season.

  22. Miami Dolphins: Jordan Morgan, G, Kutztown
    The Dolphins need a guard with Laremy Tunsil moving to left tackle.

  23. New York Giants: Zane Gonzalez, K, Arizona State
    The Giants currently don’t have a viable kicker on their roster, so this is an option on Day 3. I’d wager a little that they’d consider Zane Gonzalez.



  24. Oakland Raiders: Shelton Gibson, WR, West Virginia
    The Raiders had one of the worst No. 3 receivers in Seth Roberts last year, so they could use an upgrade to play along with Michael Crabtree and Amari Cooper.

  25. Houston Texans: Will Holden, OT, Vanderbilt
    The Texans could add more talent to the offensive line, which will need to improve in order to keep their new quarterback protected.

  26. Kansas City Chiefs: Richie Brown, LB, Mississippi State
    The Chiefs would’ve addressed inside linebacker earlier than this, but Andy Reid doesn’t put a premium on the position.

  27. Buffalo Bills: Tedric Thompson, S, Colorado
    The Bills feel they’re set at safety as far as their starters are concerned, but they need to add depth at the position.

  28. Green Bay Packers: Marquez White, CB, Florida State
    The Packers could add a second cornerback, given how grim things are for them at the position.

  29. Pittsburgh Steelers: Michael Roberts, TE, Toledo
    Ben Roethlisberger asked for the front office to address tight end, so the Steelers could do that early on Day 3.

  30. Atlanta Falcons: George Kittle, TE, Iowa
    There was some speculation that the Falcons were going to move up for Evan Engram or David Njoku. Here’s a tight end they can obtain.

  31. Cleveland Browns: Sam Rogers, FB, Virginia Tech
    The Browns tried to sign Kyle Juszczyk this offseason, but the 49ers outbid them. Perhaps that means they’ll target a fullback in the middle rounds.

  32. Cincinnati Bengals: Josh Harvey-Clemons, ILB, Louisville
    Kevin Minter was a nice, short-term signing, but the Bengals need a linebacker solution for the long haul.

  33. Denver Broncos: Erik Magnuson, OT, Michigan
    The Broncos could stand to add multiple offensive tackles, considering their dire situation at the position.

  34. Miami Dolphins: Travis Rudolph, WR, Florida State
    There was some trade speculation surrounding Jarvis Landry earlier in the offseason. If that’s still in the plans, perhaps the Dolphins will use a mid-round pick on a receiver.

  35. Arizona Cardinals: Adam Bisnowaty, OT, Pittsburgh
    The Cardinals had injury issues on the offensive line last year, so I’m sure they’ll be looking for blocking depth on Day 3 of the 2017 NFL Draft.

  36. Kansas City Chiefs: Josh Augusta, NT, Missouri
    Bennie Logan was signed, but for a short-term deal. The Chiefs could add a nose tackle for insurance purposes.



  37. Cleveland Browns: Matt Dayes, RB, N.C. State
    The Browns could spend one of their billion picks in the 2017 NFL Draft on a running back.

  38. Green Bay Packers: Ben Gedeon, LB, Michigan
    Ted Thompson doesn’t like to spend early-round picks on inside linebackers, but he’ll have to add to the position at some point.

  39. New England Patriots: Johnathan Ford, S, Auburn
    Patrick Chung is a weak point in New England’s secondary, so the Patriots could add some competition at this spot.

  40. Miami Dolphins: Nate Gerry, S, Nebraska
    The Dolphins cut Isa Abdul-Quddus, opening up a void at safety. Here’s a possible solution.
