Round 1
1. Indianapolis Colts- This pick should be a no brainer. Both Todd McShay and Mel Kiper called Andrew Luck one of the three best QB's they've ever evaluated.
Pick- Andrew Luck QB, Stanford
2. Trade-Washington Redskins-They gave away two future 1st rounders to pick whatever QB the Colts don't take.
Pick- Robery Griffin III QB, Baylor
3. Minnesota Vikings- Christian Ponder actually came in and played fairly well, which was a good sign after many questioned taking him that high last year. They have some solid skill players, but their line play left alot to be desired, especially on the offensive line.
Pick- Matt Kalil OT, USC
4. Cleveland Browns- Pure and simple: they need playmakers on offense. This guy can do it all at the running back position.
Pick-Trent Richardson RB, Alabama
5. Tampa Bay Buccaneers-Their secondary really struggled all year, especially the corner position. Best player available and it fills a need.
Pick- Morris Claiborne CB, LSU
6. Trade- St Louis Rams- They need to give Sam Bradford weapons to throw to in order for him to succeed.
Pick- Justin Blackmon WR, Oklahoma St
7. Jacksonville Jaguars-He would probably be a reach at this point but they Jags had absolutely no one at the wide receiver position last year.
Pick- Michael Floyd WR, Notre Dame
8. Miami Dolphins- I really don't think this guy has first round talent but sometimes desperate teams settle at QB as evidenced by last years first round.
Pick- Ryan Tannehill QB, Texas A&M
9. Carolina Panthers- There are probably more pressing needs, but this guy may be too enticing to pass up.
Pick- Quinton Coples DE, UNC
10. Buffalo Bills- A fast start quickly fizzled this season, making it apparent they still need some pieces. Alot of people have this guy mocked to the Bills because they need help at tackle and I agree.
Pick- Riley Reiff OT, Iowa
11. Kansas City Chiefs- Their running backs have struggled to stay healthy. Trent Richardson is long gone at this point so they will probably use it along the offensive line.
Pick- David DeCastro OG, Stanford
12. Seattle Seahawks- They also need someone that can get after the QB. This guy has been flying up the draft boards.
Pick- Melvin Ingram DE, South Carolina
13. Arizona Cardinals- They made a great pick last year in Patrick Peterson, someone who really shined his rookie year. They could use an upgrade along the offensive line.
Pick-Jonathan Martin OT, Stanford
14. Dallas Cowboys- They really need to look long and hard at drafting a corner with this pick. If you need convincing why, just look at their last game against the Giants.
Pick- Dre Kirkpatrick CB, Alabama
15. Philadelphia Eagles- The "Dream Team" quickly became a nightmare this season and almost lead to Andy Reid losing his job. They have a solid mix in place but they need to get younger on the defensive front 7.
Pick- Luke Kuechly ILB, Boston College
16. New York Jets- The Jets defensive really showed their age this past season. The safety position needs someone that can stay healthy.
Pick- Mark Barron S, Alabama
17. Cincinnati Bengals (from Oakland)-They need to do something about the corner position in the draft, hopefully sooner than later.
Pick- Stephon Gilmore CB, South Carolina
18. San Diego Chargers- I've been mocking a offensive tackle here for awhile but since Poe falls this far, he may be too good to pass up.
Pick- Dontari Poe DT, Memphis
19. Chicago Bears- The Bears biggest problem is they really don't have anyone that can stretch the field. This guy didn't have the greatest combine but his tape is outstanding. He plays faster than his 4.6 forty would lead you to believe
Pick- Kendall Wright WR, Baylor
20. Tennessee Titans- They are still in a pass-happy division, which means they need to get after the QB. Their pass rush was almost non-existent last season.
Pick- Courtney Upshaw OLB, Alabama
21. Cincinnati Bengals- They could package these two picks and move up if they find someone they really like. If they stay put then they may look at an offensive lineman here or look at running back to pair with Benson.
Pick- Mike Adams OT, Ohio St
22. Cleveland Browns- This pick needs to be used on another gamechanger. Words cannot describe how bad the Browns offense was last season.
Pick- Stephen Hill WR, Georgia Tech
23. Detroit Lions- They still have a pretty bad secondary and this guy offers good value here.
Pick-Janoris Jenkins CB, North Alabama
24. Pittsburgh Steelers- Man, that is an old defense they have in Pittsburgh. Almost everyone is over the age of 32. Youth is desperately needed all over.
Pick-Dont'a Hightower ILB, Alabama
25. Denver Broncos- Their overtime win against the Steelers was one of the greatest things I have ever witnessed. Their playmakers on defense really stepped up, however they still need to get a defensive tackle.
Pick- Fletcher Cox DT, Mississippi St
26. Houston Texans- What a turn-a-round that defense made, thanks to a slew of draft picks that have stepped up. They need a wide out, but none are worth taking here. If Hill doesn't fall to them, they may look to trade down.
Pick- Nick Perry DE, USC
27. New England Patriots (from New Orleans)- Any Patriots fan will tell you they need to use both of these first round picks on the defensive side of the ball. I will agree with them, although it's likely one of them gets traded.
Pick- Michael Brockers DT, LSU
28. Green Bay Packers-They are really in the position were they can afford to take a little bit of a luxury with this pick. They have so many playmakers on offense and could really use a few more playmakers on defense.
Pick-Shea McClellin, DE/OLB, Boise State
29.Baltimore Ravens- They are also a team that needs to get younger on the defensive side of the ball. Pick- Harrison Smith S, Notre Dame
30. San Francisco 49ers- Aldon Smith played great this season, one of the many reasons that they went 13-3. As good as their defense was this season, the offense was most definitely a work in progress. They eventually need an upgrade to Alex Smith at the QB spot, but for now I think they take a big bodied receiver. This is a big, strong receiver that will help him in the red zone.
Pick-Alshon Jeffery WR, South Carolina
31. New England Patriots- They went defense with the first pick and this pick will be used on a solid center. Both of their centers are getting pretty old and Wisconsin offensive lineman have been pretty good in the NFL.
Pick- Peter Konz C, Wisconsin
32.New York Giants-They lost a lot of TE's to injury so depth there would be needed for next year. Pick- Coby Fleener TE, Stanford
Round 2
33. St Louis Rams- They found Sam Bradford a weapon in the first round. Now it's time to fix other holes.
Pick- Devon Still DE, Penn St
34. Indianapolis Colts-Since the Colts went the no-brainer pick and drafted Andrew Luck, the attention can be focused on the defensive side of the ball. They need help all over there.
Pick-Alfonzo Dennard CB, Nebraska
35. Minnesota Vikings- Grabbed a top flight left tackle in round one and now the attention shifts to the defensive side of the ball. They have a big need at linebacker.
Pick- Zach Brown OLB, UNC
36. Tampa Bay Buccaneers- They need a speed back to pair with Blount. This pick takes care of that.
Pick- Lamar Miller RB, Miami (Fl)
37. Cleveland Browns- They need to surround Colt McCoy with play makers. Greg Little cannot be their best receiver next year.
Pick- Mohamed Sanu WR, Rugters
38. Jacksonville Jaguars- Even though they picked Floyd in the first round, their wide receiver group wasn't very good last season and they really need to give Gabbert someone to throw to.
Pick- Rueben Randle WR, LSU
39. Trade- St Louis Rams- They picked up this pick from the Redskins in the trade, so it just gives them more flexibility come draft day.
Pick- Doug Martin RB, Boise St
40. Carolina Panthers- They decided to protect Cam Newton with the first round pick, but they need help on the defensive side of the ball. This pick needs to be used at the defensive tackle position or in the secondary, especially cornerback opposite Chris Gamble.
Pick- Kendall Reyes DT, UCONN
41. Buffalo Bills- They need to give Ryan Fitzpatrick someone to throw to. Bringing back Stevie Johnson will help but they need a gamechanger at the TE position.
Pick- Dwayne Allen TE, Clemson
42. Miami Dolphins- They reached for a QB in this mock draft in the first round but they have reached before (Ted Ginn?) so that's not really a surprise. Their second round pick should be used on a rush linebacker opposite Cameron Wake.
Pick- Vinny Curry DE, Marshall
43. Seattle Seahawks- They signed Matt Flynn so they may not be looking at QB early. They added a rush linebacker but they could use an upgrade at DE as well.
Pick- Chandler Jones DE, Syracuse
44. Kansas City Chiefs- They added an outstanding interior offensive lineman in the first round so they won't need to address it here. They could look to bring in a QB to compete with Matt Cassel.
Pick- Brandon Weeden QB, Oklahoma St
45. Dallas Cowboys- America's Team addressed a huge need by targeting a corner in the first round of this mock and now it's time to look at OLB. Anthony Spencer was resigned but they could use some depth.
Pick- Whitney Mercilus DE/OLB, Illinois
46. Philadelphia Eagles-They need help on the offensive line, particularly at the tackle position.
Pick- Zebrie Sanders OT, Florida State
47. New York Jets- They may want to bring in a running back to compliment Shonn Greene since LT probably won't be back and even if he is; it will be in a diminished role.
Pick- David Wilson RB, Virginia Tech
48. New England Patriots- They have 4 picks in the first two rounds, so that gives them lots of flexibility come draft day. Should they stay in this spot it would probably be used in the secondary or pass rush help.
Pick- Andre Branch DE, Clemson
49. San Diego Chargers- They didn't address the o-line in the first round so it's time to address that need now.
Pick- Kevin Zeitler G, Wisconsin
50. Chicago Bears- Mike Martz hated the tight end for some reason and they basically gave away Greg Olson. Now that he is gone it's time to get a tight end again.
Pick- Orson Charles TE, Georgia
51. Philadelphia Eagles- They need help in the secondary since Asante Samuel isn't what he used to be.
Pick- Brandon Boykin CB, Georgia
52. Tennessee Titans- They are also a team that needs secondary help. This guy is very versatile as well.
Pick- Josh Robinson, CB/KR, Central Florida
53. Cincinnati Bengals- They need help at running back, since Benson probably won't be around much longer. This guy is a gamechanger at the position.
Pick- LaMichael James RB, Oregon
54. Detroit Lions- Filled a big need in their secondary in the first round and now it's time to upgrade the linebacking core.
Pick- Mychal Kendricks ILB, California
55. Atlanta Falcons- They still need pass rush help as Ray Edwards didn't have the impact many were expecting.
Pick- Ronnell Lewis DE/OLB, Oklahoma
56. Pittsburgh Steelers- They cut some key players on the defensive side of the ball, but I have a feeling they'll be brought back, just at a cheaper price. Their offensive line still needs some work.
Pick- Kelechi Osemele OG, Iowa St
57. Denver Broncos- Now that they have Manning, this pick may be used to give him some weapons.
Pick- Brian Quick WR, Appalachian State
58. Houston Texans- They didn't draft a wideout in the first round so they will probably look to address it here.
Pick- Joe Adams WR, Arkansas
59. New Orleans Saints- Pick Forfeited-Bounty Scandal
60. Green Bay Packers- They need some more depth along the defensive line.
Pick- Jerel Worthy DT, Michigan St
61. Baltimore Ravens- Once again they are pretty old on the defensive side of the ball and could use youth there.
Pick- Lavonte David OLB, Nebraska
62. San Francisco 49ers- They could certainly use some depth at the cornerback position.
Pick- Jayron Hosley CB, Virginia Tech
63. New England Patriots- They need to do something about they secondary at some point in this draft.
Pick- Brandon Taylor S, LSU
64. New York Giants- They could use help in the secondary, as a lot of their corners are set to hit free agency. Even if they stay depth is need. As a plus this guy would help in the return game as well.
Pick- Josh Robinson CB, Central Florida
