40.  Detroit Lions – Kyle Van Noy, OLB – BYU:  The Lions needed more help on defense, and Van Noy can help them in a variety of ways.   Grade:  B  

39.  Jacksonville Jaguars –  Marqise Lee, WR – USC:  The Jags drafted a quarterback in Blake Bortles, and now they give him a big time receiver in Lee.  Great pick.  Grade:  A  

38.  Tampa Bay Buccaneers –  Austin Seferian-Jenkins, TE – Washington:   The Buccaneers had a need at this position, and they get one of the best in the draft.  Grade:  B

37.  Atlanta Falcons  –  Ra’Shede Hageman, DT – Minnesota:  The Falcons really needed a defensive end, but maybe there plan is to play Hageman at 3-4 defensive end.  If so, then this is a great pick.   Grade:  B+
