player. 36. The Seahawk defense just wasn’t the same last year. Calhoun is drafted to provide some fresh pressure off the edge. — Kyle. Defensive End. Michigan State. Shilique Calhoun. 56

Austin Hooper. 57. player. 49. Hooper’s match in Green Bay may be too good to be true. He’s one of the few tight end prospects who can legitimately stretch the middle of the field, while also showing a consistency as a receiver to catch the ball and be a reliable target for his quarterback. Hooper still needs to make gains as a run blocker, but this part of his game can develop once he’s in the NFL and coaches can work with him every day. — Dan <p><strong><em>Kyle’s alternate pick:</em> Joshua Perry, LB, Ohio State – </strong>If Green Bay passes on linebacker in the first round, Perry makes a lot of sense in the second. He is known as a high character athlete and a team-first kind of guy. Some have said that he is not that far behind Ragland as a prospect, so getting him a round later might be a good option.</p>. Tight End. Stanford

58. player. 55. Garnett has athletic limitations, but his ability to dominate in the run game makes him worth the selection in the second round. He should be opening up holes for Le’veon Bell for years to come. — Kyle. Offensive Guard. Stanford. Joshua Garnett

player. 124. Howard has skyrocketed up draft boards following a blazing 4.38 forty time at the Baylor pro day earlier this month. Measuring 6-foot-2 and 200 pounds, a team might even take the Baylor product higher than the Chiefs here in the second round because of his impressive blend of build and speed.  — Dan. Cornerback. Baylor. Xavien Howard. 59
