2012 NFL Draft Grades: 10 Best Values Found in Second and Third Rounds

Zach KruseJun 7, 2018

With the second and third rounds of the 2012 NFL draft complete, we break down the 10-best values found during picks 33 and 95 Friday night: 

St. Louis Rams - CB Janoris Jenkins (No. 39 overall)

If Jeff Fisher can keep the troubled cornerback out of Roger Goodell's office, he has a Pro Bowl talent on his hands. A clean background would have put Jenkins in to the top-10, even above LSU cornerback Morris Claiborne.

Buffalo Bills - T/G Cordy Glenn (No. 41)

To get a potential starting left tackle—which is exactly what the Bills think Glenn is—represents a win for Buffalo in the second round. Some thought the versatile offensive lineman could go as high as No. 10 overall to the Bills in the first round. 

Green Bay Packers - DL Jerel Worthy (No. 51)

A first-round talent with a suspect motor, Worthy fell into the middle portion of the second round. At that point, GM Ted Thompson saw the value for Worthy as too much to pass up. He moved up to No. 51 overall to grab a player that should be a three-down starter in Green Bay next season. 

Cincinnati Bengals - DL Devon Still (No. 52)

Both Worthy and Still were first-round-caliber prospects who went back-to-back in the middle of the second. The Bengals get value on Still, who has the tools to be one of the draft's best defensive linemen if the motor continually runs hot. 

Atlanta Falcons - C Peter Konz (No. 55)

Konz's injury history was likely the red flag that dropped him deep into the second round, but the Falcons get a player at No. 55 that could be a 10-year starter at center. If he stays healthy, Konz can be this draft's best overall center.

Pittsburgh Steelers - T Mike Adams (No. 56)

A failed drug test at the combine and several suspensions at Ohio State likely scared teams off. But towards the end of the second round, why not? The Steelers need help on the offensive line, and Adams has left tackle ability. Smart value here for Pittsburgh. 

New York Giants - WR Rueben Randle (No. 63)

Despite a lack of elite production at LSU, some considered Randle a late first-rounder. Poor quarterback play was the major issue for the production issues in college. Randle won't have to deal with that in New York, where Eli Manning will turn him into a natural replacement for Mario Manningham. 

New York Jets - LB Demario Davis (No. 77)

Love the Davis pick as a potential replacement for Bart Scott inside. Davis needs to put on some weight, but he's a surprisingly good pass-rusher from multiple positions. Rex Ryan will love throwing him at quarterbacks. 

Arizona Cardinals - CB Jamell Fleming (No. 80)

The Cardinals failed to address the offensive line early in this draft, but Fleming's value was too good to pass on. Some analysts had Fleming as an early second-rounder. He could team with Patrick Peterson to give Arizona a solid 1-2 cornerback punch. 

New York Giants - CB Jayron Hosley (No. 94)

It's easy to forget that Hosley led college football with nine picks in 2010, but teams simply didn't throw at him last season. There's definitely starting ability here, especially now that the Giants lost Aaron Ross. Hosley can also be an impact kick and punt returner.
