29. player. 15. . WR. New Orleans Saints. Jalen Reagor

In truth, taking Jalen Reagor here is slightly too rich for my taste. However, with it being for the New Orleans Saints, I love the fit too much to pass on the TCU standout. Reagor is a speed guy with big-play potential. The Saints need a player of that ilk to step up and help opposite of Michael Thomas in the offense. So thought I have Reagor as a Day 2 pick, he’s worth a late-first-rounder for a team like the Saints.

CB. San Francisco 49ers. C.J. Henderson. 30. player. 42.

C.J. Henderson bounced back with his first eye-popping game of the 2019 season on Saturday as he helped Florida’s defense stand up and topple Auburn. The cornerback has been up and down this year but he showed tremendous poise and aggressiveness in the game. He’d be a nice add for the San Francisco 49ers, a team whose defense has played well but is getting a little long in the tooth at cornerback with Richard Sherman.

player. 47. . EDGE. New England Patriots. Alton Robinson. 31

Alton Robinson out of Syracuse feels like he’s being undervalued given the mediocrity of the Orange as a whole this season but he shouldn’t be. And rest assured, a team like the New England Patriots isn’t going to let him get by them. Robinson is a difference-maker up front that can come off the edge and get after the passer consistently, helping the Patriots already strong defense remain that way moving forward.

player. 124. . RB. Kansas City Chiefs. D'Andre Swift. 32

D’Andre Swift in the Kansas City Chiefs offense is a thought too electric for me to pass up. The Georgia running back is as dynamic as they come with speed, aggressiveness, vision and a bit of power all blending into a terrific overall player. In truth, I think Kansas City might trade this pick before the 2020 NFL Draft arrives. But for now, they make their offense more dangerous with a player like Swift.
