2015 NFL Mock Draft: Staff Plays GM 2.0

32. Erik: Antonio Cromartie may be gone, so the Arizona Cardinals need to find somebody they can put across from Patrick Peterson. Jalen Collins has size, length and speed. All he needs is some refining in his technique.. CB. LSU. Jalen Collins. 24. player

OT. Miami. Ereck Flowers. 25. player. 87. Perfect fit. Carolina has to protect Cam Newton better, and Flowers is the guy to get the job done at 25. I’d find it hard to believe the Panthers would want to go elsewhere. He has some flaws, but they’re certainly coachable.

26. player. 26. Tyler: Justin Forsett was a nice story but he’s not the long term answer at all. Gordon could flourish in Baltimore. With their run scheme he could put up numbers for years to come.. RB. Wisconsin. Melvin Gordon

123. George: With the impending departure of Henry Melton, Goldman can step in immediately and make an impact in the Cowboys run defense. The Cowboys would be making a great upgrade after giving up the second most rushing touchdowns in the league last season. Goldman did sustain an ankle injury in the ACC Championship game, but shouldn’t hinder his draft stock.. DL. Florida State. Eddie Goldman. 27. player

player. 45. Geoff: The Denver Broncos could use some help along their offensive line. Cameron Erving is a great pick because he is the jack-of-all-trades when it comes to the offensive line. Erving can play all the positions on the line, which the Broncos will welcome dearly with their issues at center and the potential departure of Orlando Franklin.. OL. Florida State. Cam Erving. 28

Sayre: The Colts need to make some boring picks and invest in Andrew Luck, but I could also see them looking at a variety of positions defensively. Cann is the best pure guard in the draft, a plug-and-play at the position who can entrench himself as a decade-long starter for the Colts, protecting Andrew Luck and opening up running lanes.. OL. South Carolina. AJ Cann. 29. player. 46

 Charles: A.J. Hawk can’t start forever, and he hasn’t been that effective the past few seasons. The Packers recent playoff losses have been at the hands of two mobile quarterbacks (Colin Kaepernick, Russell Wilson) and they could use an athletic linebacker to help them defend against the spread option quarterbacks. This move would also allow Clay Matthews to move to his more natural position at OLB.. LB. UCLA. Erik Kendricks. 30. player. 49

DL. Ohio State. Michael Bennett. 31. player. 36. Erik: To take full advantage of their secondary, the Seahawks need pressure from their defensive front, especially the interior. Michael Bennett has made that his specialty in Columbus, helping the Buckeyes win the national title.

OL. Stanford. Andrus Peat. 32. player. 47. Let’s end this mock with arguably the best value pick possible. New England fans may want to see their team go elsewhere, but Peat is a guy that can grow into a future weekly starter at the tackle position.
