Dan: Kansas City was ‘this’ close to making the postseason in 2014 and their struggles to get their wide receivers into the endzone was well documented. Any kind of spark will help the Chiefs’ offense next season and White is just the man for the job. Dwayne Bowe has veteran pedigree and should provide the leadership necessary to groom Kevin White into a dynamic weapon for Kansas City.
Todd: Following in the footsteps of MSU corner Darqueze Dennard, Trae Waynes is considered the top cornerback in the draft at this point. While they have a few veterans at the position, the Texans struggled to defend the pass this season. Getting Jadeveon Clowney back will probably be more impactful than any selection here at 18, but Waynes is another needed piece.
Dan: The high-powered offense of the Eagles is well known around the league, but the team couldn’t stop anyone on defense in 2014. The addition of Fowler on the defensive front adds versatility to a depleted unit.
Todd: The Ravens desperately need help in their defensive backfield. However, because of how the picks have fallen, there isn’t really a DB worthy of this selection. Baltimore will have to address the need later and instead select some offensive line help here while hoping Justin Forsett re-signs for a reasonable price.
