Other than that, this looks like a very good draft.
I fully expect Niang to have a role next year, but part of the appeal of Alaric Jackson (5th round in the mock) is his experience at LT for the Hawkeyes. Niang, Rankin, and Jackson give you 3 young guys with experience at T. Ultimately I think Jackson ends up on the inside at G, but the beauty of drafting guys with versatility is you protect yourself for potential injuries. Look at how the Chiefs slid Wylier over to RT on Sunday for a perfect example of that.
