89. San Diego Chargers – DaQuan Jones, DT, Penn State (Kyle)

Jones might be the second best nose tackle prospect in the draft. The Chargers could use his big body in the middle of their defensive line.

90. Indianapolis Colts – Jordan Tripp, LB, Montana (Dan)

Tripp can play any linebacker spot, and his ability to both go sideline-to-sideline and shed blockers between the tacklers makes him a perfect fit on the inside in a 3-4 defense.

91. New Orleans Saints – Christian Jones, LB, Florida State (Kyle)

The Saints need some help at linebacker. Christian Jones will have a little bit of a position and scheme conversion to work through, but could end up being the difference maker that the Saints need at linebacker.

92. Carolina Panthers – Donte Moncrief, WR, Ole Miss (Dan)

Even though Carolina already drafted Cooks in the first round, they add another talented receiver in Moncrief here. Moncrief has size (6-2, 220) and strength and will provide a nice balance with Cooks’ explosive playmaking ability in the slot.

93. New England Patriots – Paul Richardson, WR, Colorado (Kyle)

Richardson’s fall to the Patriots is a testament to the depth of the wide receiver position in the draft.  Richardson isn’t a big receiver, but he makes plays.  His talent will be welcomed by Brady and the Pats.

94. San Francisco 49ers – Brent Urban, DE, Virginia (Dan)

Urban is one of the better 3-4 defensive ends in this draft and could eventually replace Justin Smith who is 34.

95. Denver Broncos – Dion Bailey, S, USC (Kyle)

Bailey is an interesting prospect to try to figure out because he played both linebacker and safety for the Trojans.  He is a great football player who Denver could bring in to compete for the safety spot next to newly acquired T.J. Ward.

96. Minnesota Vikings (from Seattle) – Kareem Martin, DE, North Carolina (Dan)

Martin is one of the better defensive end prospects in this draft who very few people are talking about. Martin is a perfect fit as a weakside rusher in a 4-3 and will be asked to replace Jared Allen.

Comp 97. Pittsburg Steelers – Bruce Ellington, WR, South Carolina

The Steelers finally add a productive wide receiver to replace Emmanuel Sanders.  Ellington isn’t the most popular wide receiver in the draft, but could make an impact in the NFL with his ability to get yards after contact.

Comp 98. Green Bay Packers – Christian Kirksey, LB, Iowa (Dan)

Kirksey is a speedy linebacker (4.48) who excels in pass coverage. At Iowa, Kirksey also lined up in the nickel and played man against tight ends and slot receivers. The Packers could use an athletic linebacker like Kirksey that can cover and run sideline-to-sideline and make plays.

Comp 99. Baltimore Ravens – Charles Sims, RB, West Virginia (Kyle)

Charles Sims is a good player in his own right, but this pick also serves as an insurance policy for the Ravens and their current situation with Ray Rice.

Comp 100. San Francisco 49ers – Carl Bradford, OLB, Arizona State (Dan)

The rich get richer. The Niners add another athletic outside linebacker that can get after the quarterback and rotate in with Aldon Smith and Ahmad Brooks.
