23. Pittsburgh Steelers: Devin Bush, LB Michigan

This selection would be the best case scenario for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Devin Bush is talented enough to be taken higher than the twenty-third pick but the Steelers were lucky enough here to see him fall into their laps. Like Devin White, he is a modern-day linebacker who has the athleticism to make plays all over the field and he does, in his career at Michigan he has racked up 172 tackles, 18.5 for a loss, 10 sacks, an interception, and 11 passes defensed.

24. Oakland Raiders (from: Dallas Cowboys): Jachai Polite, EDGE Florida

The Oakland Raiders is dead last in the NFL in quarterback sacks. There has been a lot of talk about their trade of Khalil Mack to the Bears and the negative impact it has had on the team. They need to go out and find as many capable pass rushers as they can to quiet the critics and to give their defense a fighting chance on the field. Jachai Polite is a great athlete and incredibly fast. He probably won’t be even close to the player Mack was and won’t bring as complete a game but he will make up for some of the lost pass rush.
