Alright boys, two rounder. Lets not get to hung up on order here. Yes I did predict W/L records and mocked a playoff with a SB winner.
Notable returning:
Matt Barkley
D.J. Fluker
Robert Lester
Donte Paige-Moss
Tommy Streeter
First Round
1. Indianapolis Colts - Andrew Luck, QB Stanford: Not much to say about this one, I think they should trade it, but it’s not what I think they should do, It’s what I think they will do.
2. St. Louis Rams- Matt Kalil OT USC: Rodger Saffold has gone through a major regression this year and the Rams have learned how very important it is to keep their young signal caller up. Also could try and get him a big target to throw to for the long haul but the acquisition of Brandon Lloyd has given them a stop gap at the position for at least the near future. They could also use a true #1 corner so don’t rule out Morris Claiborn as another option and for a splash they might take Trent Richardson as an heir apparent to Jackson wouldn’t be out of the realm of possibility either.
3. Carolina Panthers – Morris Claiborn, CB LSU: I thought long and hard about this pick. The Panthers NEED to make a splash on defense with this pick, I would especially have liked to give you guys a DT but after much thought could not justify placing one this high. Morris Claiborn is no slouch though and will bolster the secondary opposite Chris Gamble
4. Minnesota Vikings – Justin Blackmon, WR Oklahoma St: The Vikings made a huge mistake in letting Sidney Rice go this past off season. He may not be tearing it up in Seattle but look at the situation. Regardless, what is done is done, and Ponder needs a true #1 target to throw to in order for him to continue to develop. They also need to address the secondary but with Claiborn off the board there is no one who would make enough of a splash here to warrant the pick so WR it is.
5. Cleveland Browns – Michael Floyd, WR ND: There is no shortage of needs for the Browns this year so it is lucky that they have two picks in the first. Many will have RB Trent Richardson here, I am personally a believer in the idea that the Browns get a deal done with Hillis. This team truly needs to get some pieces around McCoy to see whether or not they have their guy or if they need to move on.
6. Kansas City Chiefs – Landry Jones, QB Oklahoma: The Chiefs need a LB but a certain poster has finally gotten through to me about Matt Cassel and I believe that this is the way they decide to go. Johnson can hold it down in the middle and there may be a top ILB still available come the 2nd round
7. Miami Dolphins – Robert Griffin III, QB Baylor: This is a tough pick, I like RGIII and the Dolphins need a QB, however this is kind of up in the air with whoever takes over the team as this regime is probably out. If they like RGIII he is the next best available QB on the board.
8. Jacksonville Jaguars – Alshon Jeffery, WR South Carolina: Jeffery’s draft stock has already taken a hit and has slipped to the #3 WR prospect and it could slip even farther on draft day. However, right now the Jaguars need to give young Gabbert a target to throw to
9. Seattle Seahawks – Trent Richardson, RB Alabama: Lynch hasn’t been terrible this year but with no QB on the board, the Seahawks go BPA here and pick up Trent.
10. Washington Redskins – Tyler Wilson, QB Arkansas: Shanahan is kicking himself as again the QB he wanted went a few picks ahead of him while he sat at ten. I see this team making a move up to try and grab RGIII before anyone else does. However Wilson is no slouch and I believe teams will be high on him come draft time, should leapfrog guys like Tannehill.
11. Arizona Cardinals – Mike Adams OT THE Ohio State University: The Cards have hitched their wagon to Kolb for better or for worse and they need to protect him plain and simple. Levi Brown cannot protect the blindside and it needs to be addressed regardless so they go out and land themselves a top Tackle. Many have Jonathan Martin going as the 2nd left tackle, I think this guy will give him a run for his money by the time draft day comes.
12. Philadelphia Eagles – Luke Kuechly LB Boston College: I’m assuming that a new group will be leading the Eagles come draft time and the first thing they will likely do is give some love to a position that the current staff has neglected, the LB position. To do so they go with probably the safest pick of the top 3 LB prospects in Kuechly.
13. Tennessee Titans – David DeCastro OG Stanford: Chris Johnson has struggled this year so the Titans go out and get someone to open up some bigger holes for him while addressing a need. DeCastro is an athletic guard who excels in both the pass and the running game. He can pull and move up into the second level with ease and hit moving targets. If there is anything left to Chris Johnson this move will hopefully bring it out.
14. Buffalo Bills – Melving Ingram DE/OLB South Caroline: A versatile pass rusher for the versatile defense.
15. New York Jets – Reily Reiff OT Iowa: Not the next best OT on the board but the Jets really need help all along the line other then LT and Reiff can play almost every other position on the OL so he will give them some versatility in plugging holes.
16. San Diego Chargers – Jonathan Martin OT Stanford: This line needs some work and the Chargers are ecstatic that Martin fell this far
17. Cincinnati Bengals (F/ Oak) – Dre Kirkpatrick CB Alabama: The loss of JJ has hit them harder than anyone may have predicted and they need someone opposite Hall immediately.
18. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Zach Brown LB North Carolina: These two’s wagons have seemingly been hitched since earlier this year and rightfully so, perfect fit for their scheme.
19. Cleveland Browns (F/ Atl) – Vinny Curry DE Marshall: Having addressed WR with their first pick, the Browns will now solidify their move to an even front with a pass rusher at the DE position
20. New York Giants – Manti T’eo LB ND: Coughlin would have liked to pick up Kuechly here but since he is gone they turn to T’eo.
21. Denver Broncos – Lamar Miller RB Miami: Elway will be upset that they played their way out of a top QB however the Tebow era continues. Meanwhile he will go BPA to try and get himself some top talent on the team with which to build around.
22. New England Patriots (F/ NO) – Whitney Mercilus DE, Illinois: Not sure what system Bill will be running next season, went with the 4-3. If they decide to go 3-4 this pick is likely to be Upshaw
23. Dallas Cowboys – Janoris Jenkins CB North Alabama: Jerry Jones was a good boy last year and made the boring pick to address the OL but don’t expect him to do so this year. His trigger finger will be itchy and he pulls it on Janoris Jenkins.
24. Houston Texans – Alameda Ta’amu NT Washington: Wade gets his mauler in the middle to anchor his new odd front for years to come
25. Cincinnati Bengals – Mark Barron S Alabama: With this pick the Bengals turn their secondary into a strength over night.
26. Chicago Bears – Zebrie Sanders OT Florida State: Might be a bit of a reach here but the Bears CANNOT ignore this OL any longer
27. Pittsburgh Steelers – Cordy Glenn OG Georgia: The OL is in shambles and Pouncy is the only bright spot. A tackle would be better but something is still better than nothing.
28. Detroit Lions – Andrew Datko OT Florida State: Definitely a reach here but the Lions need to take a chance, they need to keep Stafford upright or risk hampering what could be a Franchise guy with an injury plagued career.
29. New England Patriots - Brandon Thompson DT Clemson: many will have a WR here but don’t be surprised if they hold off until the second round. If the pats are truly a 4-3 team now they will want another DT to line up next to Vince and the value here is too good to pass up.
30. San Francisco 49’ers – Alfonzo Denard CB Nebraska: Luckily the 49’ers don’t have a lot of needs this year. Carlos Rodgers is getting older and other than him they don’t have a solid #2 guy. Alfonzo comes into a good situation where he doesn’t need to be the #1 guy right away until Rodgers is gone.
31. Green Bay Packers – Courtney Upshaw OLB Alabama: Another team without a lot of wholes the pack take this opportunity to add another player opposite young Matthews.s
32. Baltimore Ravens- Vontaze Burfict ILB Arizona State University: Ozzie will trip over himself running the pick up to Goodell himself if Taze falls here. If it happens the Ravens will add another impact player to this defense and an heir apparent to Ray Lewis.
2nd Round
33. Indianapolis Colts – Devon Still DT Penn State: There are a lot of needs on this team and the Colts will go BPA most likely throughout the draft and still address a need
34. St Louis Rams – Mohamed Sanu WR Rutgers: The Rams bolster their passing attack with a deep threat in Sanu
35. Carolina Panthers – Jerel Worthy DT State: The Panthers made a splash on D in round one and now they address their weak DL
36. Minnesota Vikings – Nate Potter OT Boise St: Insurance plan for Ponder
37. Cleveland Browns – David Wilson RB Va Tech: Just incase Hillis isn’t back and also adds some nice depth if he does.
38. Kansas City Chiefs – Donta Hightower ILB Alabama: Chiefs addressed QB in the first round and still manage to get a nice compliment to Johnson in the second
39. Miami Dolphins – Nick Toon WR Wisconsin: Nice compliment opposite Marshall
40. Jacksonville Jaguars – Chase Minnifield CB Virginia: Mathis is getting old and after Derek Cox there isn’t much
41. Seattle Seahawks – Brandon Jenkins DE Florida State: The seagulls add a pass rusher opposite Chris Clemons
42. Washington Redskins – Michael Brewster OC THE Ohio State University: Erik Cook is awful
43. Philadelphia Eagles (F/ Ariz) – Chase Thomas OLB Stanford: The new regime continues to give TLC to a neglected Corps
44. Philadelphia Eagles - Jonathan Massaquoi DE Troy: Babin is 31 and Cole is 29 after them there is not much depth
45. Tennessee Titans – Dwayne Allen TE Clemson: Locker will need a safety valve when he becomes the starter.
46. Buffalo Bills – Kendall Wright WR Baylor: Need some targets for Fitz and someone to take some pressure off Johnson
47. New York Jets – Ronnell Lewis DE Oklahoma: Rex gets a nice pass rusher
48. San Diego Chargers – Dontari Poe NT Memphis: No impact pass rushers here so the Chargers add a big mean middle man
49. New England Patriots (F/ Oak) – DeVier Posey WR THE Ohio State University: Big vertical threat who can take the top off.
50. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Casey Heyward CB Vanderbilt: Ronde Barber is older than Jesus
51. Atlanta Falcons – LaMichael James RB Oregon: Lightning to Turner’s thunder
52. New York Giants – Jarred Crick DL Nebraska: BPA pick at a position of need, can’t ask for much more.
53. Denver Broncos – Ryan Tannehill QB Texas A&M: Broncos continue the BPA approach and just so happen to land a QB
54. New Orleans Saints – Sean Spence LB Miami: Saints need a LB and Spence has some serious heart
55. Dallas Cowboys – Ryan Miller OG Colorado: Jerry, having itched his itch, will address the OL in the second
56. Houston Texans – Nick Foles QB Arizona: Matt Schaub isn’t getting any younger and there are no legitimate back ups behind him
57. Cincinnati Bengals – Chris Polk RB Washington: Benson is a wildcard on whether or not he can even stay in the league. Can you say insurance policy?
58. Chicago Bears – Cam Johnson DE Virginia: J Pep is not young
59. Pittsburgh Steelers – Josh Chapman NT Alabama: Casey Hampton is nearing the end of his career.
60. Detroit Lions – Leonard Jackson CB Iowa State: Need some bodies in that secondary
61. New England Patriots – Billy Winn DT Boise State: This pick probably gets traded anyway
62. San Francisco 49’ers – Levi Adcock OT Oklahoma State: Anthony Davis has been shaky at times and not much depth behind him
63. Green Bay Packers – Trevor Guyton DL California: Nice 3-4 DE
64. Baltimore Ravens – T.J. McDonald S USC: Replacement for Ed Reed
