There’s no pick in this draft that feels like more of a lock than this one. Dallas Mut 24 coins really needs interior line help to open holes for Zeke, and Green is such a plus-level player in this area. The Cowboys will have had tons of time to scout him, the position and fit are perfect — and I have no doubt he’s gonna be a perennial pro bowler for the Boys.
No. 25: Buffalo Bills: Breece Hall, RB — Iowa State
I have a lot of potential players here, but Hall just feels right. The one thing the Bills have been lacking is a top-tier running back, and the physicality Breece Hall brings to the position is a natural fit. There is absolutely no way he’ll last beyond the Top 10 picks of the second round, making grabbing him here a necessity. This rounds out Buffalo’s offense and gives them a whole other dimension.
No. 26: Tennessee Titans: Trevor Penning, OT — Northern Iowa
I need to see Penning block for Derrick Henry. A real throwback lineman, Penning is a country-strong mauler who relishes tearing apart linemen and brings an edge the Titans line needs. If you like fun, you like this pick. If you like old-school football, you like this pick. If you’re a Titans fan, you should love this pick.
No. 27: Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Zion Johnson, OG — Boston College
There aren’t a lot of needs to fill, but the Bucs’ offensive line has been poached recently, particularly at the guard spots. Zion Johnson is a stellar interior blocker who can hold up penetrating pass rushers, or manipulate the point of attack for runners. For a team without a lot of needs, this one is a great choice.
No. 28: Green Bay Packers: George Pickens, WR — Georgia
Hey hey, we’re back with another WR. After taking Treylon Burks I have the Packers going back to the well for an even bigger, stronger receiver. I have no doubt this duo could become elite. Pickens is battling back from injury, but he’ll fight for the ball in the air better than any pass catcher in this draft. He can become an elite red zone tool, with range cheap madden 24 coins far beyond that.
