Round 4
Mark Sciubba follow @MarkSciubbaDoe Last Updated: April 24, 2018.
Green Bay Packers: Michael Gallup, WR, Colorado State
- Along with the defensive rebuild the Packers have dedicated themselves to, the WR Corp is tonne be revamped. They get a very solid receiver here.
- Other Green Bay Packers Selections
Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Justin Jackson, RB, Northwestern
- I love Justin Jackson. His production behind one of the worst Offensive lines in college football was insane. If he goes to a team like the Buccaneers where the RB spot is wide open I think he's a rookie starter and a damn good one.
- Other Tampa Bay Buccaneers Selections
Houston Texans: Natrell Jamerson, S, Wisconsin
- Texans grab the best player available in Natrell Jamerson a key cog of Wisconsin's dominant defense. Honey Badger gets to take Jamerson under his wing too.
Previous Pick: Jesse Burkett, C, Stanford
- Other Houston Texans Selections
Indianapolis Colts: Garrett Dooley, LB, Wisconsin
- A run of Wisconsin players goes down with back-to-back Badgers. The Colts get a badly needed plug and play linebacker in Dooley.
- Other Indianapolis Colts Selections
Chicago Bears: Cedrick Wilson, WR, Boise State
- Chicago needs to add a WR or two in this draft and they get a good one here. Wilson is a very underrated player. Boise State leaned so heavily on him that he will be perfect as a security blanket receiver for Mitch Trubisky.
- Other Chicago Bears Selections
Denver Broncos: Rashaad Penny, RB, San Diego State
- Denver gets a highly productive RB to come in and compete for a job that is wide open. Penny is capable of beating out Devonta Booker and D'Angelo Henderson for a starting running back role. He can't be any worse than Ronnie Hillman who Denver drafted in the third round out of San Diego State.
- Other Denver Broncos Selections
New York Jets: Chris Herndon IV, TE, Miami FL
- Herndon could be the best tight end of the draft when it's all said and done. He was held back by inconsistent QB play in college and will be a great tight end for any young QB to grow with.
- Other New York Jets Selections
New York Giants: Terrell Edmunds, S, Virginia Tech
- Giants get a partner in crime for Landon Collins as the second Edmunds brother in this draft comes off the board. Terrell Edmunds lined up at both safety spots at Virginia Tech.
- Other New York Giants Selections
Washington Redskins: Kalen Ballage, RB, Arizona State
- Redskins haven't been able to figure out the RB position still. Maybe Ballage can finally be the answer for them.
- Other Washington Redskins Selections
Oakland Raiders: Godwin Igwebuike, S, Northwestern
- Raiders get a highly productive, smart, and tough football player here. Just what Gruden is looking for.
- Other Oakland Raiders Selections
Los Angeles Rams: Rasheem Green, DL, USC
- Greene is one of the most interesting prospects in the draft. If he went back to school he could of been a top ten pick next year. Someone might bet on that potential and take him round one or two. In this scenario the rich get even richer and take Greene who should be a monster once he bulks up and gets coached up by Wade Phillips.
- Other Los Angeles Rams Selections
Cincinnati Bengals: Tre' Williams, LB, Auburn
- Bengals grab some key depth and a potential starter with a rock solid Linebacker in Williams. Burfict cant'seem to avoid suspensions which is why LB depth is paramount for Cincinnati.
- Other Cincinnati Bengals Selections
Denver Broncos: Dalton Schultz, TE, Stanford
- Schultz has some serious potential and Broncos have next to nothing at Tight End. Schultz is a top 5 blocking tight end in this draft.
- Other Denver Broncos Selections
Cleveland Browns: Kc McDermott, G, Miami FL
- Cleveland gets a great guard to help protect the Darnold and give him time to throw to a suddenly pretty good Cleveland offense. McDermott began his career as a left guard, but was able to win the left tackle job at the end of 2016 and maintained it throughout 2017 which is why he will be a great NFL guard.
- Other Cleveland Browns Selections
Chicago Bears: D.J. Reed, CB, Kansas State
- Bears get a great Nickelback who can play some safety in Reed. D.J. Reed can also be Chicago's best special teams return specialist since Devin Hester too.
- Other Chicago Bears Selections
Dallas Cowboys: Josey Jewell, LB, Iowa
- Cowboys use a mid round selection to get the heir apparent at middle linebacker. Depth at LB will be a priority as long as Sean Lee keeps getting injured.
- Other Dallas Cowboys Selections
Detroit Lions: Durham Smythe, TE, Notre Dame
-
The Lions are run by former Patriots executive who know the importance of valuing the Tight End position. Levine Toilolo and Luke Willson are okay, but one more tight end for depth will be needed.
- Other Detroit Lions Selections
Baltimore Ravens: Desmond Harrison, OT, West Georgia
- Baltimore doubles up on high upside Offensive Lineman. Now Baltimore has a swing tackle to compliment Ronnie Stanley and Chukwuma Okorafor.
- Other Baltimore Ravens Selections
Los Angeles Chargers: B.J. Hill, DL, North Carolina State
- Chargers grab BJ Hill a great player who will fall farther than he should because of playing on a stacked D Line. Corey Liuget is being suspended the first four games and Brandon Mebane enters a contract year. It's very likely that the duo of Taven Bryan and B.J. Hill replaces both Liuget and Mebane by 2019 if the Chargers are fortunate enough to land Hill this late.
- Other Los Angeles Chargers Selections
Seattle Seahawks: Anthony Miller, WR, Memphis
- Miller would be a steal here. If the Seahawks are gonna let the defense take a step back they need to build a stacked offenes around Wilson.
- Other Seattle Seahawks Selections
Buffalo Bills: Nick Nelson, CB, Wisconsin
- Bills have major question marks at corner beyond Tre'Davious White. Nelson is a player who will fit in perfectly with what Sean McDermott is building.
- Other Buffalo Bills Selections
Kansas City Chiefs: Dee Delaney, CB, Miami FL
- It's gonna take more than one player to try replacing Marcus Peters. The Chiefs should draft the best corner on their board at some point in the draft.
- Other Kansas City Chiefs Selections
Miami Dolphins: Tyquan Lewis, EDGE, Ohio State
- Lewis could be a steal in this draft. A highly talented player with a ton of potential to grow. He was lost in the shuffle of the Ohio State D Line and he’ll fall because of that.
- Other Miami Dolphins Selections
Kansas City Chiefs: Brian Allen, G, Michigan State
- The Chiefs continue to build up a wall for Mahomes and Kareem Hunt. Brian Allen is the younger brother of 2016 NFL Draft prospect Jack Allen who also played at Michigan State.
- Other Kansas City Chiefs Selections
Tennessee Titans: Chad Thomas, EDGE, Miami FL
- Tennessee adds Thomas who flashes brilliance in getting to the QB but just isn't consistent yet. Maybe this Titans coaching staff can get Thomas to reach his potential.
- Other Tennessee Titans Selections
Atlanta Falcons: Breeland Speaks, EDGE, Ole Miss
- Breeland Speaks could be a great depth pick here for the Falcons. I feel like Atlanta needs defensive line depth both inside and off the edge so they take Speaks here to address that.
- Other Atlanta Falcons Selections
New Orleans Saints: Javon Wims, WR, Georgia
- Wims was the most clutch player for Georgia this season. Whenever the Bulldogs needed a play he answered.
- Other New Orleans Saints Selections
San Francisco 49ers: Shaquem Griffin, LB, Central Florida
- Getting ready for the Griffin vs Griffin battles twice a year. The best story of the draft is so much more than that. An elite athlete who has the potential to wear so many hats for a defense and be your special teams captain.
- Other San Francisco 49ers Selections
Jacksonville Jaguars: Logan Woodside, QB, Toledo
- Here's a hot take. Logan Woodside would be the best QB on the Jaguars roster from day one.
Previous Pick: Ranthony Texada, CB, TCU
- Other Jacksonville Jaguars Selections
Philadelphia Eagles: Darius Leonard, MLB, South Carolina State
- Eagles get a solid fast Linebacker as money decisions at the position are coming. Leonard is a nice addition this late in the fourth round.
- Other Philadelphia Eagles Selections
Miami Dolphins: Nyhiem Hines, RB, North Carolina State
- It's no secret the Dolphins want to add a RB in this draft. Hines can be a nice change of pace back to add to their RB room.
- Other Miami Dolphins Selections
Philadelphia Eagles: Van Smith, S, Clemson
- With no real holes on the roster Eagles can grab the Best Player Available. Van Smith would start in a depth role, but he'd be very effective once he got on the field.
- Other Philadelphia Eagles Selections
Green Bay Packers: Tony Brown, CB, Alabama
- Packers continue the secondary rebuild with a tall Alabama corner. Tony Brown is a nice corner for Green Bay to add here.
Previous Pick: Oren Burks, 3-4 MLB, Vanderbilt
- Other Green Bay Packers Selections
Arizona Cardinals: Will Clapp, C/G, LSU
- Cardinals grab Will Clapp who can come in and play all three spots in the interior line. Arizona has had success with drafting prospects on LSU.
- Other Arizona Cardinals Selections
Los Angeles Rams: DeShon Elliott, S, Texas
- Elliot was once getting first round buzz. I never bought into that and believe he is a more mid round Safety.
.
Previous Pick: Dane Cruikshank, SS, Arizona
- Other Los Angeles Rams Selections
Los Angeles Rams: Tarvarius Moore, S, Southern Mississippi
- Moore is another sleeper not many know about but could go pretty high if a team falls in love with his tape. The Rams pair Moore with Elliott to form a lethal safety tandem next to their trio of stud corners.
- Other Los Angeles Rams Selections
Dallas Cowboys: Da'Shawn Hand, DL, Alabama
- The Cowboys would be jumping for joy getting Hand here. Hand has fantastic value here to wrap up the fourth round.
- Other Dallas Cowboys Selections
