60. The Vikings take the same player they drafted in the first round, but they get their franchise quarterback a whole lot earlier. Remember when Bridgewater was considered the third-best quarterback in the class, but ended up having the best rookie year? There’s not a whole lot to complain about if you’re a Vikings fan. Bridgewater looked pretty darn good for a rookie.. Quarterback. Louisville. Teddy Bridgewater. 9. player
10. player. 50. When Detroit drafted <strong><a href=. Wide receiver. Clemson. Sammy Watkins
Jake Matthews. 11. player. 35. While <strong><a href=. Offensive tackle. Texas A&M
player. 31. With the front runner to win Offensive Rookie of the Year off the board, the Giants go with the potential Defensive Rookie of the Year, <strong><a href=. Linebacker. Alabama. C.J. Mosley. 12
51. Ah, the glory of having multiple first-round picks. Thanks, <strong><a href=. Running back. LSU. Jeremy Hill. 13. player
<strong><a href=. Linebacker. Wisconsin. Chris Borland. 14. player. 57

Nevada. Joel Bitonio. 16. player. 123. With Martin off the board, Dallas springs for the AFC’s version of Dallas’ real-life rookie. Bitonio had a stupendous rookie year, but it was somewhat overshadowed by Martin’s success on the Dallas Cowboys, a playoff team in a big market. Drafting Bitonio would still give the Cowboys the offensive line stability to make a playoff run, and the unit would still be set for years to come. . Offensive guard
