Team |
Pick |
| 1 |
 |
St. Louis Rams
(1-15) |
QB Sam Bradford, Oklahoma -
It's time the St. Louis Rams fans got a face for their franchise and a franchise
QB to watch grow. There is a lot of hype around Jimmy Clausen but I think
Bradford is the better choice. A trade still worries me. |
| 2 |
 |
Detroit Lions
(2-14) |
DT
Ndamukong Suh, Nebraska - This is a simple BPA vs. need. Will Detroit
feel pressure from their recent draft failures to take the BPA Suh or get the 10
year protector of Stafford in Okung. |
| 3 |
 |
Tampa Bay Buccaneers (3-13) |
DT Gerald McCoy, Oklahoma -
Tampa needs serious secondary help but McCoy is a top 5 talent that will be too
much for them to pass up. |
| 4 |
 |
Washington Redskins
(4-12) |
OT Russell Okung, Oklahoma State -
I really like Trent Williams but everyone has Okung rated a little higher.
Either way I believe Donovan McNabb will be very happy on Day 1. |
| 5 |
 |
Kansas City Chiefs
(4-12) |
S Eric Berry, Tennessee - I
have a hard time passing up on Trent Williams here but the Chiefs defense has
been terrible for too long. Time to take the BPA and get a new play making QB
for the defense. Berry is the guy here. |
| 6 |
 |
Seattle Seahawks
(5-11) |
RB
C.J. Spiller, Clemson - Well well well what do we have here. Sure
Seattle needs a QB and OT but this is Pete Cerroll. A match made in heaven. Pete
loves the player maker and Spiller is the best in the draft. They will go OT at
#14. |
| 7 |
 |
Cleveland Browns
(5-11) |
QB
Jimmy Clausen, Notre Dame - The Browns are definitely the wild card in
the top 10.They could use Berry, Williams, Clausen, etc. I don't by the smoke
screen from Holmgren. Clausen is a top 10 talent on all boards now a he snap him
up. |
| 8 |
 |
Oakland Raiders
(5-11) |
OT Trent Williams, Oklahoma -
Speaking of Wild Cards here come the Raiders. Everyone likes Bruce Campbell here
but why? I think Williams could easily be the best OT in this draft. Face it
nobody knows what the Raiders will do. |
| 9 |
 |
Buffalo Bills
(6-10) |
OLB
Sergio Kindle, Texas - Buffalo is in a tough spot at #9 if the Browns
actually take Clausen. Both big tackles will be gone as well. After dealing with
Owens will they take Bryant? The Bills could do anything here. |
| 10 |
 |
Jacksonville Jaguars
(7-9) |
DE
Jason Pierre-Paul, USF - I like Derrick Morgan here as a solid DE but
Paul has a huge upside and could also play OLB. Coming from South Florida this
will also add some much needed fan support to the Jags. |
| 11 |
 |
Denver Broncos
(8-8) |
WR
Dez Bryant, Oklahoma State - Pouncey or Weatherspoon would be nice
picks for the Broncos but not at up at #11. They will take the top 5 talent in
Bryant who will be too good to pass up here. I look for them to move Marshall. |
| 12 |
 |
Miami Dolphins
(7-9) |
DT
Dan Williams, Tennessee - Miami is another team in a bad draft
position. If Bryant is still available they will scoop him up. I can't believe
Haden is still on the board here. The fish seem to want a DT will they risk
getting Cody later? |
| 13 |
 |
San Francisco 49ers
(8-8) |
CB
Joe Haden, Florida - The 49ers will be very happy if Haden is still on
the board at #13. They could also go with an OT here but I think they will risk
finding one at #17 since top 10 talent in Haden is still available. |
| 14 |
 |
Seattle Seahawks
(5-11) |
OT Bryan Bulaga,
Iowa - If Bulaga, Davis and Campbell are all still here the Seahawks
will take their pick. Rams are in big trouble if the hawks manage to get Spiller
and Bulaga. |
| 15 |
 |
New York Giants
(8-8) |
ILB
Rolando McClain, Alabama - With the injury to Pierce and his age
McClain is a great pick here for the Giants who love to get after the QB. |
| 16 |
 |
Tennessee Titans
(8-8) |
DE
Derrick Morgan, Georgia Tech - The Titans should be pretty simple they
will go with Morgan, Pierre-Paul, or Haden depending who falls to #16. |
| 17 |
 |
San Francisco 49ers (8-8) |
OT
Anthony Davis, Rutgers - The 49ers will take the best tackle available
at this position. If the Niners land Haden and a top tier OT they will be
jumping up and down heading into Day 2 |
| 18 |
 |
Pittsburgh Steelers
(9-7) |
OG Mike Iupati, Idaho - The
Steelers could go many ways here but the best value is Iupati. They could also
go with Pouncey but there is more value in
Iupati here. |
| 19 |
 |
Atlanta Falcons
(9-7) |
DE
Brandon Graham, Michigan - Graham is just a solid ball player. Odrick
or Griffen could also be the choice just depends who the Falcons have rated
higher. |
| 20 |
 |
Houston Texans (9-7) |
CB Kyle Wilson, Boise State -The
Texas have to replace Robinson, they would love to pick up Haden but he will
most likely make it down to spot #20. |
| 21 |
 |
Cincinnati Bengals
(10-6) |
TE
Jermaine Gresham, Oklahoma - Carson Palmer sure could use a huge target
like Gresham. Would the Bengals get Mays to go along with Malaluga? |
| 22 |
 |
New England Patriots
(10-6) |
WR
Golden Tate, Notre Dame - Sean Weatherspoon would be a nice pick here
but the Patriots will continue to load up on receivers that can make plays. |
| 23 |
 |
Green Bay Packers
(11-5) |
OT
Bruce Campbell, Maryland - Aaron Rodgers will be very thankful if the
Packers pick up a big lineman so he can stay off his back long enough to win
games for the Packers.. |
| 24 |
 |
Philadelphia Eagles
(11-5) |
C
Maurkice Pouncey, Florida - If Pouncey and Earl Thomas are on the board
the Eagles can't lose. Reid loves to draft lineman in the first round. The
Eagles also have a ton of picks so Reid may trade up to get want he wants. |
| 25 |
 |
Baltimore Ravens
(9-7) |
CB
Kareem Jackson, Alabama - It will be very interesting to see if the
Ravens might pair Ray Lewis with Taylor Mays. That could be quite the combo but
for now I lean toward a top corner to shore up the need. |
| 26 |
 |
Arizona Cardinals
(10-6) |
ILB Sean Weatherspoon, Missouri -
I would love to see the Cardinals take a shot on Jerry Hughes here but
Weatherspoon is the more solid player at this point. Hughes could let the Cards
try a look of things on D but Weatherspoon is needed. |
| 27 |
 |
Dallas Cowboys (11-5) |
S
Earl Thomas, Texas - What a perfect fit for the Cowboys. I can't
believe Thomas is still on my board at #27 but he is so I have to hand him to
the Cowboys. If all the safeties are gone OT Charles Brown will be the pick. |
| 28 |
 |
San Diego Chargers
(13-3) |
RB
Ryan Mathews, Boise State -The Chargers would love Cody but no way they
pass up on Mathews or Best if they are still there at #28. |
| 29 |
 |
New York Jets (9-7) |
S Taylor Mays, USC - The Jets
are loaded and look Rex Ryan is getting a shiny new toy. Taylor Mays will allow
the Jets to continue to impose their physical style. If the Jets get Mays they
will blitz on almost every play. |
| 30 |
 |
Minnesota
Vikings
(12-4) |
RB Jahvid Best,
Cal - A cornerback like Devin McCourty would be a good pick up here but
the Vikings are good enough to just take another play maker. Jahvid Best would
be a great compliment to Peterson and a good replacement for Taylor. |
| 31 |
 |
Indianapolis Colts
(14-2) |
DE
Jared Odrick, Penn St. -I would like to see them pick up Tim Tebow here
I think he would be a great pick. For now I will make the safe one and take
Odrick. |
| 32 |
 |
New Orleans Saints
(13-3) |
DE
Everson Griffen, USC - A think Griffen helps the Saints with their pass
rush which at times was pretty weak. They are going to score plenty of points so
every time they can make a stop on defense they will be that much further ahead. |
