Hogs Haven Mock Draft: Picks 17-24

So, Ken is currently in the lead for both posts (1-8 picks and 9-16 picks). Does anyone realize what this is going to do to is already over-blown hubris? This is a guy who originally liked the Spurrier signing and Cerrato's promotion post-Gibbs. OK, I might have made up the latter part. Here's how the next picks rolled out and I have the full order starting from #1 after the jump:

.17. Patriots (Tiller): J.J. Watt, DE, Wisconsin
18. Chargers (Ken): Cameron Heyward, DE, Ohio State
19. Giants (Parks): Gabe Carimi, OT, Wisconsin
20. Bucs (Kevin): Mike Pouncey, G, Florida
21. Chiefs (Tiller): Akeem Ayers, OLB, UCLA
22. Colts (Ken): Anthony Castonzo, OT, Boston College
23. Eagles (Parks): Tyron Smith, OT, USC
24. Saints (Kevin): Phil Taylor, DT, Baylor

My 2 picks were the Bucs and Saints.

The Bucs have several team needs including DE and LB, but woth all the premier guys gone, it make sense to draft a Guard as solid as Pouncey. The right side of their OLine is very questionable and Davin Joseph, their LG coming off IR, is a free agent that will not be franchised. They need 1 starting Guard and potentially two. You gotta protect your franchise QB, and Blount has shown he can make some plays with mediocre blocking.

The Saints had a decent defense last year but a stud defensive tackle is hard to pass up.

1. Carolina (Tiller): Da'Quan Bowers, DE, Clemson
2. Broncos (Ken): Patrick Peterson, CB, LSU
3. Bill (Parks): Nick Fairley, DE, Auburn
4. Bengals (Kevin): AJ Green, WR, Georgia
5. Cardinals (Tiller): Marcel Dareus, DT, Alabama

6. Browns (Ken): Robert Quinn, DE, North Carolina
7. 49ers (Parks): Prince Amukamara, CB, Nebraska

8. Titans (Kevin): Blaine Gabbert, QB, Missouri

9. Cowboys (Tiller): Nate Solder, OT, Colorado

10. Redskins (Ken): Von Miller, OLB, Texas A&M
11. Texans (Parks): Jimmy Smith, CB, Colorado

12. Vikings (Kevin): Derek Sherrod, OT, Mississippi State

13. Lions (Tiller): Adrian Clayborn, DE, Iowa

14. Rams (Ken): Julio Jones, WR, Alabama
15. Dolphins (Parks): Cam Newton, QB, Auburn
16. Jaguars (Kevin): Cameron Jordan, DE, Cal

17. Patriots (Tiller): J.J. Watt, DE, Wisconsin

18. Chargers (Ken): Cameron Heyward, DE, Ohio State
19. Giants (Parks): Gabe Carimi, OT, Wisconsin

20. Bucs (Kevin): Mike Pouncey, G, Florida
21. Chiefs (Tiller): Akeem Ayers, OLB, UCLA
22. Colts (Ken): Anthony Castonzo, OT, Boston College
23. Eagles (Parks): Tyron Smith, OT, USC

24. Saints (Kevin): Phil Taylor, DT, Baylor
