Round 1
#1 ST Louis Rams QB Sam Bradford Oklahoma
The Rams get their possible franchise QB after watching other teams get rich by drafting a QB early, the last few years. he has a big arm, but will need to show his shoulder has heeled. I think they are bluffing, trying to get someome to trade up. We'll see.
#2 Detroit Lions DT Ndamukong Suh Nebraska
The Lions get a gift from the Rams, by passing on SUh. One of the Lions biggest needs is help for the d-line. Suh might be the best defensive player in draft. A huge run stopper with abilty to rush passer. He will command a double team.
#3 Tampa Bay Buccaneers DT Gerald McCoy Oklahoma
The Bucs look to rebuild their defense. McCoy is not quiet as good as Suh , but he is close. He will be a huge help against the run, in a RB loaded division. Like Suh will command a double team.
#4 Washington Redskins OT Russel Okung Oklahoma St
With the retirement of Chris Samuels, the tackle spot becomes top prority. Okung is the OT in draft and should start from day one. He is a beast of a blocker.
#5 Kansas City Chiefs FS Eric Berry Tennessee
Along with Suh, they are best in draft. He has great ballhawking skills and hits like a LB. His versatility is his biggest asset. He can cover with best of them, or play like a LB in run support. He has great return skills. He can even play some CB if needed.
#6 Seattle Seahawks OT Trent Williams Oklahoma
With the first of two picks this round they have to use one on an o-lineman. They o-line is begining to age so he will be a nice fit and upgrade for Seattle.
#7 Clevland Browns CB Joe Haden Florida
The Browns gave up too many big plays in the passing game last season and Haden will help cut those down. He has great hands, to go with his blazing speed. He is best overall CB in the draft.
#8 Oakland Raiders OT Bruce Campbell Maryland
The raiders will try again to get a quality o-lineman early, after the disastorous selection of Gallery at #3 a few years back. Campbell had an oustanding combine helping raise his stock.
#9 Buffalo Bills QB Jimmy Clausen Notre Dame
The Bills have to get a QB if they want to do anything, as Edwards is not the answer. Clausen has the size, arm, touch and experience in a pro system under then coach Charlie Weiss.
#10 Jacksonville Jaguars DE Derrick Morgan Florida
The lack of a pass rush last season, clearly hurt the Jags. A edge rusher is sorely needed in a diivision with pass heavy teams. He has very good speed, long arms and is a sure tackler.
#11 Denver Broncos (CHI) LB Rolando McClain Alabama
Depending on if they keep Marshall or not, they take McClain. He is an absolute tackling machine. He gets off blocks well and looks for the big hit. The kind of LB they have been looking for since the Al Wilson era.
#12 Miami Dolphins WR Dez Bryant Oklahoma St
What Denver does could affect Dolphins, as they will take who they don't. Bryant gives them a big WR with size, speed and great hands. He will be a very nice goto WR for Henne.
#13 San Fransisco 49ers (CAR) OT Anthony Davis Rutgers
They will use the first of two picks this round to improve their o-line. Davis a terrific run blocker, which is a big need for a team that struggled to run the ball at times last season.
#14 Seattle Seahawks (DEN) RB CJ Spiller Clemson
HC Pete Carroll has stated that he wants another RB. He likes to split carries between his backs. He may also be wanting to start new with his own back. He has great speed, hands and vision. He also has added value as a returner.
#15 NY Giants LB Sergio Kindle Texas
With the loss of Antonio Pierce, they have a void to fill. Kindle had a great showing in the National Championship Game. He can rush the passer and play coverage well. He has that kind of tweener size the Giants like.
#16 Tennessee Titans DE Everson Griffin USC
With KVB and Kearse aging and posssibly leaving due to free agency, this a need pick. They may look at Carlos Dunlap, but will pass due to character issues. Griffen is an aggressive rusher with long arms. He is very athletic.
#17 San Fransisco 49ers FS Taylor Mays USC
They will not pass on a player with his talent. He is a home state college star and fills a need. He has very good ball skills and looks for the knockout hit. He is the kind of player Singletary is looking for.
#18 Pittsburgh Steelers OT Bryan Bulaga Iwoa
With all the sacks they have given up the last few years this is a very needed pick. Bulaga is physical and aggressive. He would be a great upgrade for the Steelers.
#19 Atlanta Falcons DE Jason Paul-Pierre South Florida
Like the Titans they will pass on Dunlap, and will take Paul-Pierre. He is fluid pass rusher with long arms. He gets off blocks well and gets to the ball.
#20 Houston Texans CB Earl Thomas Texas
With possible loss of Dunta robinson in free agency, they will have a need to fill. Thomas is an agressive playmaker who rarely misses. He has nice blend of size and speed.
#21 Cincinatti Bengals OG Mike Iupati Idaho
Iupati is a mauler of a blocker. he is just what the Bengals need. They are beging to age upfront so this a must. Iupati can both guard spots and maybe some RT.
#22 New England Patriots DT Dan Williams Tennessee
Youth is needed on defense. Williams is a great run stopper and can rush passer as well. He has a knack for making plays in the backfield.
#23 Green Bay Packers C Maurkice Pouncey Florida
Like the Steelers, the Packers had problems with protection last season. Some of it was due to injuries, but they are aging upfront. Pouncey is a big and aggressive center who can play some guard. His versatility will be big for Green bay.
#24 Philadelphia Eagles RB Johnathan Dwyer Georgai Tech
With the release of Brian Westbrook, they look to add another RB. Dwyer is a big back who can do it all. He has great speed and soft hands. He is an everyt down cack that they don't have.
#25 Baltimore Ravens WR Brandon Lafell LSU
As usual, the ravens are looking for a WR. Mason's career is drawing to an end, so they need his replacement. Lafell is a big, tall WR who has great hands and very good speed. He will be a nice goto WR for Flacco.
#26 Arizona Cardinals LB Brandon Spikes Florida
They may lose LB Carlos Dansby to free agency, and maybe some others as well. Spikes is a very good LB. He can rush the passer as well as drop back into coverage on passing downs.
#27 Dallas Cowboys DT Jared Odrick Penn St
They will look to add some depth at DT. Odrick is big man who stuffs the run. He is physical and doesn't get caught up in traffic. He would make a solid rotation with Jay Ratliff.
#28 San Diego Chargers RB Ryan Matthews Fresno St
After they released LT, they have to find a RB. Sproles is a nice all purpose back and returner, but they need someone that can carry the full load. Matthews is big, powerful, has breakaway speed and good hands. He led the nation in rushing last season at Fresno St.
#29 NY Jets DE Carlos Dunlap Florida
After the Titans and falcons pass on him (character issues), the Jets will not. Dunlap is fast, aggressive and plays with an attitude, which HC Rex Ryan likes. Fills a need of youth and depth at a position that is begining to age.
#30 Minnasota Vikings CB Patrick Robinson Florida St
Due to injuries they have to upgrade this position. Robinson has very good speed and make a lot of plays. He is very solid at reading and reacting.
#31 Indianapolis Colts DT Brian Price UCLA
They don't tend to reach for players and take BPA. Price can crush the pocket and stuff the run. He is a smart player which the Colts like very much.
#32 New Orleans Saints LB Ricky Sapp Clemson
They need to add some youth at LB. Vilma could use the help and Shanle and Fujita are begining to slow as they get older. Sapp is very fast. He makes alot of tackles. He is versatile, can rush passer and drop into coverage.
ROUND 2
#33 St Louis Rams TE Jermaine Gresham Oklahoma St
They add a weapon for Bradford to throw too. He is a big target with soft hands.
#34 Detroit Lions RB Jahvid Best Californai
Kinda of small, but has blazing speed. I can see the Lions using him kinda like the Vikings use Percy Harvin. He has great return skills.
#35 Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Golden Tate Notre dame
With the release of Antonio Bryant they need to fill his spot. Tate is tall, has blazing speed and and very good hands.
#36 Kansas City Chiefs DT Terrance Cody Alabama
The Chiefs get a mountain to plug the middle. He has late first round talent but has slid due to weight issues and and a sub par combine.
#37 Washington Redskins QB Dan LeFevour Central Michigan
By tendering Jason campbell, they did not have to reach for a QB in the first round. LeFevour is type of QB coach Shanahan likes. He is tall, great vision downfield, touch and the ability to scramble.
#38 Clevland Browns DE Brandon Graham Michigan
A strong senior bowl and combine has Graham flying up draft boards. He is a very aggressive pass rusher and a solid tackler. A must as the Browns continue to rebuild the defense.
#39 Oakland Raiders LB Sean Weatherspoon Missouri
They need help everywhere and take BPA. Weatherspoon is a hard hitting LB, who tackles very well. A nice fit for the Raiders.
#40 Seattle Seahawks CB Kyle Wlson Boise St
Like Graham, a strong senior bowl and combine have him moving up draft boards. He is a svery good CB with solid technique.
#41 Buffalo Bills LB Navarro Bowman Penn St
A new coach clearly means they are rebuilding. Bowman is a solid player with nice hands. He plays coverage well.
#42 Tampa Bay Buccaneers (CHI) OT Vladimir Ducasse Umass
They use the extra pick this round to upgrade the o-line. He is huge in size and a solid blocker. Needs some work, but will be a solid NFL tackle.
#43 Miami Dolphins DE Corey Wooten Northwestern
A BPA pick, will add some much needed youth and depth at position. He is a big De who could play some DT.
#44 New England (JAX) LB Jerry Hughes TCU
Outside of Mayo, they are aging at LB. Hughes is tackling machine that could play alot early. This the first of three picks this round.
#45 Denver Broncos DE Jason Worilds Virginai Tech
He is a tweener type, with good speed. He is a solid tackler and gives it his all. He needs to get better in coverage.
#46 NY Giants CB Dominique Franks Oklahoma
A solid cover corner who will add them some depth. Will play alot in the Nickel.
#47 New Engaland (TEN) WR Dexter McCluster Missippii
McCluster is a game breaker, with homerun speed. He will line up all over the field. He has great return skills too.
#48 Carolina Panthers WR Arrellious Benn Illinois
They have to find someone to play oppisite Steve Smith. He has good size and hands. Not afraid to go across the middle.
#49 San Fransisco 49ers CB Kareem Jackson Alabama
They continue to add depth to the secondary. Jackson will play mostly in nickel and dime situations.
#50 Kansas City Chiefs (ATL) WR Demaryius Thomas Georgai Tech
Thomas is a tall lanky WR who has good hands. He is a deep threat on every play. Needs to add weight.
#51 Houston Texans SS Chad Jones LSU
They keep adding defenders, to help stop Manning. Jones is a headhunter type of player, but is a good tackler. Needs to get better in coverage.
#52 Pittsburgh Steelers DT Cam Thomas North Carolina
He is very good versus the run and crushes the pocket well. He is a solid tackler.
#53 New England Patriots CB Chris Cook Virginai
Good in coverage and tackles well. He will add depth to the Pats secondary.
#54 Cincinatti Bengals WR Mardy Gilyard Cincinatti
They have to find a playmaking WR to replace the late Chris Henry. Gilyard will give big value as great returner as well.
#55 Philadelphia Eagles LB Darryl Washington TCU
A good tackler, but a bit of a project. Has decent speed and hands. Reads well.
#56 Green Bay Packers OT Jason Fox Miami
Must show he is healthy, if so is a very solid tackle. He has good hands and moves well.
#57 Baltimore Ravens SS Reshad Jones Georgai
If Ed Reed retires, then they will need the depth. He is a hard hitter and is decent in coverage.
#58 Arizona Cardinals FS Morgan Burnett Georgai Tech
Like Dansby they could lose Rolle in free agency. Burnett is similar type of player. good tackler.
#59 Dallas Cowboys OT Jared Veldheer Hillsdale
A depth pick, but a good one. Will be a good upgrade along the line with a year or two of experience.
#60 San Diego Chargers DT Tyson Alualu Californai
He is big, physical and aggressive, just how the Chargers like them. Gets off blocks very well.
#61 NY Jets WR Jordan Shipley Texas
Will be a very nice over the middle WR. Has good speed and hands. Is very reliable.
#62 Minnasota Vikings SS Larry Asante Nebraska
Is a big hitter who covers very well. Is a big help against the run.
#63 Indianapolis Colts CB Devin McCourty Rutgers
