Haason Reddick | OLB, Temple
Height: 6-1 Weight: 230
I love this kid. He can play inside, outside, blitz and he´s a tough kid. Love this pick.

30
T.J. Watt | OLB, Wisconsin
Height: 6-5 Weight: 235
I like the pick. He fills a pass-rush need and he is a rising player. Still learning to play the game.


2
59
Tanoh Kpassagnon | DE, Villanova
Height: 6-7 Weight: 289
He is a raw, big, physical player, but he will have a learning curve. But he fits with what they like to do.


2
62
JuJu Smith-Schuster | WR, Southern California
Height: 6-1 Weight: 215
I don´t think this was an overwhelming need, but he was productive in a good conference.


2
63
Dion Dawkins | OT, Temple
Height: 6-5 Weight: 320
They need help at right tackle and this is a kid who has starting ability right away. He plays with a nasty streak.


3
83
Derek Rivers | DE, Youngstown State
Height: 6-4 Weight: 250
Some scouts liked him as a first-round talent, others didn´t like him much at all. I think he´s going to a good spot to learn.


3
84
Chris Godwin | WR, Penn State
Height: 6-1 Weight: 209
He is a playmaker who can run, which is always good to have. But is this a need?


3
94
Cam Sutton | CB, Tennessee
Height: 5-11 Weight: 182
This kid is a corner who I think they can slide inside to safety and be a good player.


3
99
Rasul Douglas | CB, West Virginia
Height: 6-2 Weight: 209
Douglas is a big corner at 6-foot-2 who impressed at West Virginia. They need help there, and he can play man coverage at his size.


3
105
James Conner | RB, Pittsburgh
Height: 6-1 Weight: 233
I am giving this kid an A just for being picked after beating cancer. It´s a great story and he does have ability.

4
115
Dorian Johnson | OG, Pittsburgh
Height: 6-5 Weight:
300A durable, athletic guard prospect who has experience at playing some tackle. Great value in Round 4.


4
123
Montae Nicholson | SS, Michigan State
Height: 6-2 Weight: 212
An athletic safety prospect with areas to develop in both coverage and in run support. A need for Washington, but better safeties still available.

4

135

Joshua Dobbs | QB, Tennessee
Height: 6-3 Weight: 210
A long-term developmental project at QB who is very intelligent and a coach?s dream off the field. Inconsistent mechanics, accuracy and decision-making will lead to him sitting and learning behind Big Ben until he hangs them up.

5

158

Nate Hairston | CB, Temple
Height: 6-0 Weight: 196
A former wide receiver with only one year of starting CB experience and it shows. Will need time to develop mentally and technically before he sees action.

5

166
Shelton Gibson | WR, West Virginia
Height: 6-0 Weight: 198
A very productive deep threat receiver while at West Virginia, Gibson had some drops, but adds some long-term peace of mind to the Eagles receiving corps after some one-year free agent signings.

5
171
Nathan Peterman | QB, Pittsburgh
Height: 6-2 Weight: 225
Good spot here for a QB some really like. Should have some time to continue his development behind Tyrod Taylor.

Brian Allen | CB, Utah
Height: 6-3 Weight: 215
A corner with rare size (6-foot-3 with 34-inch arms) and rare athleticism for his size (4.43 40 time). Good intangibles. Very good pick here for the Steelers.

6
188
Elijah McGuire | RB, UL Lafayette
Height: 5-10 Weight: 214
One of only two players in the FBS with 4,000 yards rushing and 1,000 yards receiving, McGuire is a good receiver and change of pace RB prospect. Nice pick here for the Jets.

6
200
Adam Bisnowaty | OT, Pittsburgh
Height: 6-6 Weight:
304A four-year starter at Pittsburgh as a tackle, but best in smaller spaces and would probably fit best as a guard with the ability to kick out to tackle if needed. Decent value here at a position of need for the Giants.

6
213
Colin Holba | LS, Louisville
Height: 6-5 Weight: 245
As a former long snapper myself, happy to see Holba drafted here by the Steelers in Round 6. Still an important part of the special teams unit, but probably attainable as a free agent.
