13. Denver Broncos: Tyler Biadasz, C, Wisconsin

There might be some possibility that one of the Broncos’ second-round selections, Dalton Risner, can slide into the starting center position. With incredible positional versatility, it is also possible to see Risner fit in at right tackle or one of the guard positions.

This will become more and more likely with Wisconsin center Tyler Biadasz sitting as the best player on the board. After flirting with leaving school early last season, the 6-3, 319-pounder could stake claim as a better center prospect than former Badger Travis Frederick when he was coming out. Solidifying the center position should be of high priority to pair with Drew Lock as he works toward the starting position.

14. Detroit Lions: Yetur Gross-Matos, EDGE, Penn State

Opposite of the newly acquired Trey Flowers, the Detroit Lions have a whole lot of nothing outside of Romeo Okwara. The position is due for a much-needed upgrade.

We head to Happy Valley, where Yetur Gross-Matos took a huge step on the national stage as a true sophomore with 20 tackles for loss and eight sacks. With his outstanding length and ability to win up the ark, Gross-Matos is just barely scratching the surface of how good he can be. With another year of refinement and experience under his belt, he could be a player who is drafted much higher come next spring.
