17. Dallas: Tashard Choice…With the possible holdout of Marion Barber, the Cowboys where wise to grab not only Felix Jones but a bruiser back like Choice who gives them a nice insurance policy should Barber get injured.18. NY Giants: Andre Woodson…Great pickup by the Giants as they can work on his flaws and develop him into a quality #2 QB. Look for him to eventually get shopped like the Packers did all those years behind Favre.
19. Philadelphia: Jake Ikegwuonu….Likely will miss the whole season but if fully recovered you are looking at second talent and the eventual replacement to Sheldon Brown.
20. Washington: Durant Brooks....The top punter by many and finally someone to secure that spot and give the Redskins a bonus on special teams.
21. Chicago: Earl Bennett….Solid dependable receiver who should be a day 1 starter. A perfect #2 on any team.
22. Detroit: Cliff Avril….The hybrid player who should only get better with NFL coaching. Avril will a great addition to the improving defense.
23. Green Bay: Brian Brohm…The most game ready QB coming out this season. Lack of superior arm strength may hurt a little in GB but by 2009 should push hard for the starting spot. Aaron Rodgers has little room to slip up.
24. Minnesota: John Sullivan…Outstanding value pick. Should replace Matt Birk by 2009 and start for the Vikes for the next 10-12 years.
25. Atlanta: Harry Douglas…A perfect slot receiver for Matt Ryan. Should become a favorite target for the young QB.
26. Carolina: Dan Connor…Another great value pick that teaming with Beason gives the Panthers two young, hungry linebackers to lead their defense for the next dozen years.
27. New Orleans: Adrian Arrington…This late in the draft was a great steal. With some questions at WR and besides Colston no one really stepping forward Arrington has a chance to grow into a #2 or #3 receiver by 2009.
28. Tampa Bay: Dre Moore…Bucs need weight on the DL (see Brandon Jacobs weighing more than all defensive linemen). Moore is a solid worker who should grow with NFL coaching.
29. Arizona: Calais Campbell
