2017 NFL Mock Draft: 7 Rounds of Trade-Fueled Action

32. The Cardinals have been trying for years to get another quality cornerback across from Patrick Peterson, thus giving their pass defense more juice. Thus far they’ve met with limited success. Rasul Douglas could end up being the answer they need. A large 6’2″ corner from West Virginia, he flashed his athletic potential and ball skills throughout 2016 and again at the Senior Bowl. Given a little more experience and technique work, he can be a legitimate stud on the outside.. CB. West Virginia. Rasul Douglas . 45. player

Christian McCaffrey . 46. player. 60. Like most great running backs, the Adrian Peterson era ended quietly in Minnesota. The team now needs to seriously seek out an option at the position since they have none worth noting. Christian McCaffrey isn’t getting the respect of other top backs, but he was crazy productive at Stanford. He runs with vision, quickness, speed and deceptive power. He has hands for receiving and electric return ability as well. He can be that feature back for the Vikings.. RB. Stanford

Jabrill Peppers . 47. player. 26. Sometimes the sheer talent must override other concerns. Jabrill Peppers has fallen down many boards of late because of his lacking production at Michigan. Yet there is no denying his athletic prowess. He has huge potential as a safety. He’s shown he can blitz and play up in the box really well. It’s a matter of whether he can learn to play the position with more feel and instinct. Baltimore putting him under the wing of Eric Weddle would be genius.. S. Michigan

OG. Indiana. Dan Feeney . 48. player. 46. Chris Ballard is no fool. He understands the success of Andrew Luck is directly tied to the offensive line. Don’t expect him to neglect it like Ryan Grigson did. Dan Feeney ranks as one of the top guards in the class. A rock solid blocker who paved the way for multiple productive running backs including future Pro Bowler Jordan Howard. He doesn’t have a lot of flaws in his pass protection either. Just one of those rough and tough guys who get it done.
