They get to keep Sweed in his home state. He is big and physical and has great hands — when he's healthy. If he can get back to full strength, he will be a great option for Tony Romo.
23. Pittsburgh: Gosder Cherilus, OT, Boston College
The Steelers will most likely reach for this pick because they need offensive linemen badly. They would love to trade out of here; if they can, that would be ideal.
24. Tennessee: Malcolm Kelly, WR, Oklahoma
He took a pretty good fall, but he could be in a great spot. He hasn't worked out well this post-season, but when he puts his pads on, he can play against anybody.
25. Seattle: Dustin Keller, TE, Purdue
Keller won't be a dominant in-line blocker, but thanks to the Seahawks' pass-heavy offense, he would be a mismatch nightmare in the slot. You can never have too many pass catchers.
26. Jacksonville: Phillip Merling, DE, Clemson
Jacksonville has their choice of three very talented DEs at this point, and they go with the one who has the most complete game. Merling only lasts this long because of his sports hernia.
27. San Diego: Kentwam Balmer, DT, North Carolina
Balmer would be an excellent fit playing nose tackle in a 3-4 defense. Yes, Jamal Williams is still an excellent player, but he's long in the tooth. An infusion of youth would be great for the Chargers, who are basically stacked.
28. Dallas: Jonathon Stewart, HB, Oregon
I know he's not a speed back, but he has one of the best combonations of size, speed, and versatility in this draft. He's just too good to pass up. He should be ready to go by the time training camp rolls around and could turn into a monstrous steal.
29. San Francisco: James Hardy, WR, Indiana
He's had a very good post-season, and I wouldn't be surprised if he goes higher than this. He has great size, body control, and hands.
30. Green Bay: Reggie Smith, DB, Oklahoma
He hasn't worked out all that well, running some poor 40 times, but he has game speed and is at his best with pads on. He's versatile enough where he could interchange between safety and corner.
31. New England: Week 1 Victory vs. NY Jets
Well, the Patriots cheated and got caught. Was it really necessary against the Jets, who aren't even that great of a team? Their spying skills would have been more useful against the Giants and realizing their terrorizing pass rush.
32. NY Giants: Jerod Mayo, LB, Tennessee
He's a beast of an athlete and could turn into a great player. He still needs some work on anticipating plays, but his size, speed, and athleticism are so impressive.
