2015 NFL Mock Draft 4.0 – Round 7

229.) Cleveland Browns – DE Corey Crawford, Clemson
Has the size and athleticism to be a much higher pick, but hasn’t been as productive for the Tigers as his skill warrants. There were occasional flashes of talent from Crawford, but not enough to go higher than day 3. The potential is there for Crawford to start at the next level, but his work ethic, technique, and consistently will all have to improve significantly.
230.) New Orleans Saints – G Torrian Wilson. UCF
The Saints could use some depth on their interior line and Wilson has starter potential. He’s a thick bodied guard who played well at left tackle protecting Blake Bortles for two seasons before moving inside to guard as a senior. Wilson is a powerful run blocker who struggles when asked to move outside his gap, but is a solid phone-booth blocker in both run and pass blocking. He has a good burst off the line and also anchors well in pass pro. If the Saints are really moving to a power run game as rumored, Wilson could play a role as a rookie.
231.) Detroit Lions – WR Deontay Greenberry, Houston
Tall receiver who was projected to be a much higher pick a year ago. He has shown the ability to consistently high-point the ball and make back shoulder catches, but his route running and hands have been inconsistent. If Greenberry gets stronger be could be a solid NFL receiver eventually.
232.) Minnesota Vikings – DT Chucky Hunter, TCU
Squat but explosive run stopper with a great motor who could be a solid depth option for the Vikings right away. Hunter is a steal this late and could go 2-3 rounds higher.
233.) Kansas City Chiefs – G Adam Shead, Alabama
Short arms, but was productive against top talent in the SEC. The Chiefs need depth at guard and Sheed has a chance to contribute right away.
234.) Buffalo Bills – WR Devante Davis, UNLV
Wasn’t as productive as expected, but has all the tools to be at the next level. Davis has ideal length (6’3), the strength to beat press coverage (220), and the speed to stretch the field (4.56). If the Bills ever find a QB, Davis could be a dangerous weapon.

235.) Houston Texans – CB Bryce Callahan, Rice
Tough, scrappy slot corner who has excellent footwork and above average ball skills. Despite his lack of size (5’9,183), Callahan is an aggressive run stopper. He could compete for the starting slot job as a rookie in Houston.
236.) Dallas Cowboys – CB JaCorey Shepherd, Kansas
The Cowboys haven’t released CB Brandon Carr yet but they will if he doesn’t take a pay cut. Even if they keep him they could still use some help at corner, Shepard is a former receiver who has quick feet and the ability to excel in man coverage. He will need to get stronger to deal with NFL receivers, but has the talent to be a DB in the league.
237.) Philadelphia Eagles – DE Kaleb Eulis, Mississippi St
Some depth at the 5-tech for the Eagles.
238.) Cincinnati Bengals – G Jon Feliciano, Miami
Interior line depth with the size to play right tackle in a pinch.
