2013 NFL Mock Draft: Updated Rounds 4-7 Predictions
The wildest, wooliest draft in years was no tamer on its second day.
2013's quarterback class is the most under-drafted, oddly-selected crop of signal-callers in recent memory. Possible first-round picks like Ryan Nassib and Matt Barkely were left on the board going into Day 3, and teams with obvious needs have passed on them multiple times.
Where will these talented young quarterbacks land—and how will they get their careers in gear once they get there?
At the end of the third round, the run on offensive linemen hadn't stopped, but there were still a surprising number of quality running backs and receivers left for the picking. Which teams will get incredible skill-position value on Saturday?
Don't forget the wildcards: as many as four punters could be taken, and NCAA Football 14 cover model Denard Robinson is still out there for a team with a pick they don't mind gambling.
Keep reading to find out where everyone ends up in our fully updated fourth-through-seventh-round mock draft!

1 of 898. Jacksonville Jaguars: DE Alex Okafor, Texas
99. Kansas City Chiefs: DT Jesse Williams, Alabama
100. Oakland Raiders: QB Matt Barkley, USC
101. Philadelphia Eagles: FS Phillip Thomas, Fresno State
102. New England Patriots (via Detroit Lions through Vikings): OLB Khaseem Greene, Rutgers
103. Arizona Cardinals: QB Ryan Nassib, Syracuse
104. Miami Dolphins (from Cleveland Browns): S Shamarko Thomas, Syracuse
105. Buffalo Bills: FS Sanders Commings, Georgia
106. Miami Dolphins (via New York Jets through Saints): WR Ryan Swope, Texas A&M
107. Tennessee Titans: OT Jordan Mills, Louisiana Tech

110. Arizona Cardinals (from San Diego Chargers): RB Marcus Lattimore, South Carolina
111. Cleveland Browns (via Miami Dolphins): TE Chris Gragg, Arkansas
112. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: WR Da'Rick Rogers, Tennessee Tech
When the Cardinals flew Ryan Nassib out for dinner with the coaches and front office staff, he likely didn't expect them to take him quite this late, but here he is. Marcus Lattimore's dream has a chance in the desert, too.
4th Round: Picks 16-36
2 of 8113. St. Louis Rams: OLB Trevardo Williams, UConn
114. Dallas Cowboys: CB Jordan Poyer, Oregon State
115. Pittsburgh Steelers: OT David Bakhtiari, Colorado

131. San Francisco 49ers (compensatory): WR Kenny Stills, Oklahoma
132. Detroit Lions (compensatory): DE Cornelius Washington, Georgia
133. Atlanta Falcons (compensatory): QB Matt Scott, Arizona
One of the most productive backs in the nation, Johnathan Franklin, finds a home with the Redskins, where they run the zone-read offense he excels in. Barrett Jones, perhaps the most versatile offensive lineman in the draft, lands in Tampa Bay. The Atlanta Falcons love drafting quarterbacks named Matt (Schaub, Ryan and now Scott).
5th Round: Picks 1-15
3 of 8134. Kansas City Chiefs: DE Michael Buchanan, Illinois
135. Jacksonville Jaguars: RB Joseph Randle, Oklahoma State

146. Green Bay Packers (via Miami Dolphins): WR Josh Boyce, Texas Christian
147. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: RB Mike Gillislee, Florida
148. Carolina Panthers: OT Xavier Nixon, Florida
Geno Smith is going to love throwing to Dion Sims, the most impressive combination of size and athleticism of any tight end in the draft. Tennessee lands a developmental mini-Jake Locker in Zac Dysert.
5th Round: Picks 16-46
4 of 8149. St. Louis Rams: CB Steve Williams, California
150. Pittsburgh Steelers: TE Joseph Fauria, UCLA
151. Dallas Cowboys: QB Tyler Bray, Tennessee

166. Miami Dolphins (compensatory): QB Sean Renfree, Duke
167. Green Bay Packers (compensatory): WR Cobi Hamilton, Arkansas
168. Baltimore Ravens (compensatory): DT Montori Hughes, Tennessee-Martin
The Cowboys start grooming an heir apparent to Tony Romo with Tennessee's strong-armed Tyler Bray. Who else but the San Francisco 49ers can afford to take the ultimate luxury pick in Denard Robinson?

5 of 8169. Jacksonville Jaguars: OLB Gerald Hodges, Penn State

173. Green Bay Packers (via Philadelphia Eagles through Cleveland Browns): CB Daxton Swanson, Sam Houston State
174. Arizona Cardinals: RB Kenjon Barner, Oregon
175. Cleveland Browns: OG Alvin Bailey, Arkansas
176. Oakland Raiders (from Arizona Cardinals): CB Brandon McGee, Miami (Fla.)
177. Buffalo Bills: WR Tavarres King, Georgia
178. New York Jets: TE Nick Kasa, Colorado
179. San Diego Chargers: OT Ricky Wagner, Wisconsin

181. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Steve Beauharnais, ILB
182. Carolina Panthers: TE Levine Toilolo, Stanford
183. New Orleans Saints: CB Micah Hyde, Iowa
The Chiefs take yet another offensive weapon: Utah State jitterbug Kerwynn Williams. Arizona adds sizzle to Marcus Lattimore's steak with Oregon tailback Kenjon Barner.

185. Dallas Cowboys: WR Ace Sanders, South Carolina

204. Kansas City Chiefs (compensatory): QB Ryan Griffin, Tulane
205. Oakland Raiders (compensatory): DT Josh Boyd, Mississippi State
206. Pittsburgh Steelers (compensatory): OT Garrett Gilkey, Chadron State
The Cowboys add a potentially explosive understudy to Dez Bryant in Ace Sanders. The Ravens, one of the few teams who knows how to use a true fullback, pick up Florida State's Lonnie Pryor.
7th Round: Picks 1-15
7 of 8207. Kansas City Chiefs: TE Mychal Rivera, Tennessee
208. Jacksonville Jaguars: DT T.J. Barnes, Georgia Tech
209. Oakland Raiders: QB Jordan Rodgers, Vanderbilt

220. Seattle Seahawks: (via New Orleans Saints) ILB Michael Mauti, Penn State
221. San Diego Chargers: OT Emmett Cleary, Boston College
Not for the first time in this draft, there's a run on tight ends. Mychal Rivera, Jake Stoneburner and Zach Line all come off the board within a dozen picks of one another.
7th Round: Picks 16-49
8 of 8222. Buffalo Bills (via St. Louis Rams): CB Terry Hawthorne, Illinois
223. Pittsburgh Steelers: WR Charles Johnson, Grand Valley State
224. Green Bay Packers (via Dallas Cowboys through Miami Dolphins): OG Stephane Milhim, Massachusetts

247. Baltimore Ravens (compensatory): OLB John Lotulelei, UNLV
248. Tennessee Titans (compensatory): OLB Michael Clay, Oregon
249. Atlanta Falcons (compensatory): SS Cody Davis, Texas Tech
250. Miami Dolphins (compensatory): WR Sam McGuffie, Rice
251. Cincinnati Bengals (compensatory): RB Michael Ford, LSU
252. San Francisco 49ers (compensatory): DE/LB Wes Horton, USC
253. New York Giants (compensatory): G Ryan Jensen, Colorado St.-Pueblo
254. Indianapolis Colts (compensatory): DE Meshak Williams, Kansas State
Two specialists come off the board here. The Atlanta Falcons try to maximize their compensatory picks by taking one of everything, including Florida State kicker Dustin Hopkins. The Detroit Lions' unintentional punter-by-committee approach did not work well for them last season. Louisiana State's Brad Wing should end that.
