NFC West

Arizona Cardinals: Joshua Dobbs, QB – Tennessee

Carson Palmer’s longevity in this league is going to run out relatively soon and the Cardinals don’t have a contingency plan currently in place. Joshua Dobbs has as much upside as just about any quarterback in this class. Letting him come in and work with Bruce Arians could bring the best out of him and make him the ultimate successor to Palmer in the desert.

Los Angeles Rams: Dorian Johnson, OG – Pittsburgh

We’ve already touched on Johnson once before, but I think he almost has to be the pick for the Rams with the fifth pick on Day 3. Johnson is far better than a fourth-round player and the Rams at guard right now are a dumpster fire. Open up holes for Todd Gurley and let Jared Goff breathe a little bit.

San Francisco 49ers: Will Holden, OT – Vanderbilt

There’s everything to love about how the 49ers have done in this draft, save for the curious selection of C.J. Beathard at the end of the third round. While that may be the case, Holden is a big tackle that needs work on his technique. Yet, the potential is truly massive for the SEC product and he’ll be able to come out in a big way and make an impact if allowed to develop behind Joe Staley.

Seattle Seahawks: Offensive Linemen

This is general and basic and it needs to be. Of course the Seahawks found great value throughout the first three rounds on defense. That’s their calling card. Their calling card last year was also not being able to block anyone and Russell Wilson running for his life. They need to try anything to remedy that moving forward.
