EDGE. Kentucky. Bud Dupree. 13. player. 15. Charles: New Orleans needs to upgrade their defense and it has to start with the pass rush. Shane Ray was on the board, but I think Dupree offers much more upside than Ray. Dupree has all the physical ability in the world and flashes star skills on the field — he just needs to be coached up a little. 

14. player. 59. Erik: The Dolphins have their front line loaded but it will mean little if their secondary can’t cover anybody. Corteland Finnegan is already gone and Brent Grimes is drifting deeper into his 30s. Miami needs a young body across from him to carry the torch. Trae Waynes is the best in this draft class and a good fit for their 4-3 system.. CB. Michigan State. Trae Waynes

42. Sayre: With the ability to play both guard and tackle at the next level, Collins is the type of guy who will fit in perfectly for the 49ers, with or without Mike Iupati. He is such a powerful lineman who is pretty athletic all things considered, and can help open up running lanes for Carlos Hyde. He’s not a prototypical left tackle prospect in terms of his pass protection, but he can hold his own and is a solid value pick here.. OT. LSU. La'el Collins. 15. player

player. 57. Sayre: Moving to a 3-4 defense, the Bears need edge rushers. They made some big moves in free agency last offseason to get LaMarr Houston and Jared Allen, but they don’t have anyone who looks like a great fit as an edge rusher in the 3-4. They were able to, in this situation, trade down TWICE and still pick up Ray, who is one of the best in the NFL Draft at getting heat on the quarterback. This is a huge get for the Bears.. DE. Missouri. Shane Ray. 16
