The third and final day of the 2015 NFL Draft began with the teams at the top of the round taking advantage of some value picks, but it didn’t take long for a shake up that would’ve made a lot more noise had the draft been taking place in New York this year as it usually does.

Notable Picks in Round 4

No. 101 overall, New England Patriots: Trey Flowers, defensive end, Arkansas

No. 103 overall, New York Jets: Bryce Petty, quarterback, Baylor

No. 110 overall, Minnesota Vikings: T.J. Clemmings, offensive tackle, Pittsburgh

No. 120 overall, Cincinnati Bengals: Josh Shaw, cornerback, USC

No. 121 overall, Pittsburgh Steelers: Doran Grant, cornerback, Ohio State

No. 124 overall, Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Kwon Alexander outside linebacker, LSU

No. 135 overall, Cincinnati Bengals: Marcus Hardison, defensive end, Arizona State

Early in round four, the Jacksonville Jaguars put the fourth pick in the round up for grabs and the New York Jets felt threatened enough by another team moving up to send one of their seventh rounders to Jacksonville (No. 229 overall) so that they could move up just one spot to take quarterback Bryce Petty from Baylor.

It’s a move many expected from the Jets as early in the second round, so it’s hard to doubt the value here. The sacrifice of a seventh rounder is a small price to play if Petty is their guy.

I think Petty has a chance to be the solid starter in the league. There’s no doubt he has the size to play the position and the arm strength is good enough to play at the pro level. And while he’s never going to surprise you by running the ball, I also don’t think his lack of mobility is going to be as much of a hindrance as others do. That said, Petty’s success is pretty clearly the product of the system at Baylor and it’s not clear whether he’ll be able to successfully adapt to another system or read a defense well enough to succeed as a pro.

The thing with Petty is he’s going to need time to develop. He’s certainly not a guy you’ll see step in immediately and I don’t think he should get anywhere near playing in a regular season game at all this season. That developmental strategy is not something the Jets have been good at dealing with in the past, and it was a detriment to the team’s incumbent quarterback Geno Smith. But perhaps the new regime will be different. They’ll have to be to make the most of Petty’s pro potential.

Of the other picks, the one I really like aside from Minnesota’s downright steal of T.J. Clemmings, who probably should have been a first round pick, was the chance taken by the Cincinnati on USC cornerback Josh Shaw. Marvin Lewis and his staff have gotten the most out of other troubled players and Shaw was a versatile early first round talent before his off the field issues raised a red flag. By adding Shaw and Marcus Hardison, another excellent value in the fourth, the Bengals have a chance to refresh their talent on defense at a low price.

The fourth round showcased a run on offensive linemen, many of whom provide amazing values. The Panthers finally found the offensive tackle they desperately need in Oklahoma’s Daryl Williams. The Vikings stole T.J. Clemmings, once considered a likely first-round pick, as a possible heir apparent to Matt Kalil. The Patriots found great value in Florida State OG Tre Jackson, while the Redskins added their second mauler of the draft one selection later in Alabama’s Arie Kouandjio. New England selected another road-grader a short while later in Georgia Tech OG Shaq Mason. Outside of the big uglies, the best pick of the fourth round was WR Vince Mayle, who has the size and smoothness to make an immediate impact for the Browns.  –Michael Lombardo

There was a lot of perceived talent available and selected in Round 4.  Some of the picks that I really like are Michigan State’s Jeremy Langford to the Chicago Bears to back up Matt Forte, UCF safety Clayton Geathers to the Indianapolis Colts, former Pittsburgh left tackle T.J. Clemmings to the Minnesota Vikings and former USC safety Josh Shaw to the Cincinnati Bengals.

The pick I like the best is the Atlanta Falcons selection of ECU wide receiver Justin Hardy.  On the surface, the Falcons don’t appear to have a great need at wide receiver but without a big time tight end, Hardy can play in the slot or on the outside and if Julio Jones or Roddy White goes down Hardy can step right in for Matt Ryan. –Charlie Bernstein

There was still a lot of talent when Round-4 of the NFL Draft began, and I especially like the New York Jets picking up Bryce Petty to compete with Geno Smith and perhaps replace Smith eventually if the Jets decide he’s not the guy. The Minnesota Vikings may have grabbed one of the steals of the draft selecting T.J. Clemmings 110th overall, and Ozzie Newsome continued to show he’s one of the best in the business when he made Kentucky’s Za’Darius Smith a new Baltimore Raven.

My favorite pick in the 4th-round was the Cincinnati Bengals’ selection of Josh Shaw. Shaw and 3rd-round pick Paul Dawson will both be great additions to an already strong Bengals defensive unit. The Bengals have once again done a nice job in the draft. That’s been a trend lately.
