Steve Shoup’s Updated 2013 NFL Mock Draft

Updated 2013 NFL Mock Draft Round 1 | Round 1 Picks 17-32 | Round 2 | Round 3 | Round 4 |

Picks 1-16, 17-32

17. Chicago Bears- OT Bobby Wagner, Wisconsin

– The Bears offensive line still looks to be a weakness and should be addressed early in the draft. Wagner would give Chicago two bookend maulers from Wisconsin.

18. Dallas Cowboys- S T.J. McDonald, USC

-The Cowboys addressed their CB needs, but still need an impact safety

19. Denver Broncos-G Jonathan Cooper, UNC

-The name of the game is protecting Peyton Manning, which is why the offensive line needs to be a focus next year.

20. Atlanta Falcons- DT Kawaan Short, Purdue

-The Falcons need to keep strengthening their defense and Short would be good value here.

21. Baltimore Ravens- OLB Jarvis Jones, Georgia

-Who knows how Terrell Suggs recovers from his injury, adding another pass rusher should be a premium.

22. Detroit Lions- S Bacarri Rambo, Georgia

-The Lions secondary is still the weak part of that secondary. Rambo could be a leader back there and really bring that team together.

23. Cincinnati Bengals-LB Nico Johnson, Alabama

-The Bengals don’t project to have many needs, but I think that LB will be up there.

24. Kansas City Chiefs-QB Tyler Bray, Tennessee

-The Chiefs need to find a future QB, and luckily there could be some nice options next year.

25. Philadelphia Eagles-LB Manti Te’o, Notre Dame

-A lot will depend on how the Eagles defense performs next year, but I think they could still be looking LB.

26. New Orleans Saints- DE Brandon Jenkins, FSU

-Pass rushers should be the Saints top target next year and Jenkins is a nice fit.

27. New England Patriots- OG Chance Warmack, Alabama

-The Patriots went defensive heavy in this draft which means I think they turn their attention to the offense next year.

28. San Francisco 49ers- CB Johnathan Banks, Mississippi State

-The 49ers don’t have a lot of needs, but could use some additional help in the secondary.

29. New York Giants- DT Kwame Geathers, Georgia

-Not a major need here at DT, but a good value pick.

30. Houston Texans- WR Terrence Williams, Baylor

-The Texans picked up some mid-round WR’s but should consider taking a top guy next year.

31. Pittsburgh Steelers- ILB C.J. Mosley, Alabama

-The Steelers would love to get a linebacking talent like Cosely for their 3-4 defense.

32. Green Bay Packers- RB Marcus Lattimore, South Carolina

-This is a great value pick if Lattimore proves himself healthy. A stable rushing attack is the one thing the Packers are lacking.
