| Round 1 | |||||
| 1 |  |
Andrew Luck |
QB |
Stanford |
N/A |
| 2 |  |
Robert Griffin III |
QB |
Baylor |
N/A |
| 3 |  |
Matt Kalil |
OT |
USC |
If not for Luck and RG3, Kalil would be the #1 pick. This guy is up there with Jake Long/Joe Thomas. |
| 4 |  |
Trent Richardson |
RB |
Alabama |
Cleveland needs to find a ton of talent before throwing a QB like Tannehill into the death pit that is the AFC North. Richardson rivals Adrian Peterson as far as draft prospect goes. |
| 5 |  |
Morris Claiborne |
CB |
LSU |
No brainer here, for the Bucs, not Claiborne of course. |
| 6 |  |
Michael Floyd |
WR |
Notre Dame |
He has the better make-up of an elite WR than Blackmon does (which says alot because Blackmon is damn good as well) |
| 7 |  |
Justin Blackmon |
WR |
Oklahoma State |
Jags O-Line is solid, and why would they want to give up on Gabbert after 1 year? Give him someone like Blackmon to throw to. |
| 8 |  |
Ryan Tannehill |
QB |
Texas A&M |
Really don't like putting this guy in the top 10, but Ireland may get deported if he doesn't satisfy the QB position for these crazed Dolphins fans. |
| 9 |  |
Fletcher Cox |
DT |
Mississippi State |
This is a great, great pick for the Panthers. I really wanted to give them Hill here, but Cox could turn into a Jay Ratliff type player. Adds to an underrated defense. |
| 10 |  |
Melvin Ingram |
OLB |
South Carolina |
Another pick of a player that is too good to pass up. Let Ingram come from behind Mario, Dareus, Williams and Anderson? Scary for Brady and Sanchez. None of the OT's are worth this high of a pick, Ingram is. |
| 11 |  |
David DeCastro |
OG |
Stanford |
Some people think OT would be a better pick with Riley and Martin available, but they signed Eric Winston and LT Albert had a fantastic season last year. DeCastro ties everything together. |
| 12 |  |
Quinton Coples |
DE |
North Carolina |
Coples paired together with a stud like Clemons would make a formidable pass rush. |
| 13 |  |
Luke Kuechly | ILB |
Boston College |
Wanted to go with Jon Martin here, but Arizona resigned Levi Brown and you don't spend a pick this high on a RT. Kuechly is one of the top 5 football players in this draft. A "can't go wrong" type of pick. |
| 14 |  |
Mark Barron |
S |
Alabama |
Even with the signing of Brodney Pool, Barron is a great pick for Dallas. Ball hawk type of Safety who is also a heavy hitter. He is everything Roy Williams wasn't. |
| 15 |  |
Michael Brockers |
DT |
LSU |
Eagles stay away from the Poe hype and grab a far more polished Defensive Tackle. |
| 16 |  |
Riley Reiff |
OT |
Stanford |
RT Wayne Hunter gave up 11 sacks and had 11 penalties last year. |
| 17 |  |
Stephen Hill |
WR |
Georgia Tech |
Bengals don't let the Hill frenzy go on any longer. Pairing one of the rarest athletes at WR in NFL history with AJ Green, Gresham and a healthy Shipley? Glad Ravens have the best secondary in the league.... |
| 18 |  |
Cordy Glenn | OG |
Georgia |
Kris Dielman retired, and he was a quality O-Lineman for SD. Glenn can play Guard or even possibly move to RT and take over for Jeromy Clary |
| 19 |  |
Jonathan Martin |
OT |
Stanford |
Joe Webb gave up 12 sacks and 14 penalties last season. That cannot happen again. |
| 20 |  |
Dre Kirkpatrick |
CB |
Alabama |
Losing Finnegan hurts. Although he was a trouble maker, he was a damn good player for Tennessee. Kirkpatrick would pair up nicely with Verner and McCourty |
| 21 | |
Stephen Gilmore |
CB |
South Carolina |
Even with the signing of Newman, Gilmore is too good to pass up. Cinci finishes the first round with a nice pair of skill players. |
| 22 | |
Kendall Wright |
WR |
Baylor |
Like I said above, this team needs talent. Richardson and Wright in the 1st round adds explosion to their offense as well as points. |
| 23 |  |
Janoris Jenkins |
CB |
Northen Alabama |
Just too good of a football player to pass up. Lions don't have many needs, but CB is one of them. |
| 24 |  |
Donta Hightower |
ILB |
Alabama |
Pittsburgh loves LB's. They need a new one next to Timmons. Continue on with the tradition. This guy is a stud. |
| 25 |  |
Dontari Poe | NT |
Memphis |
Pure BPA here and fills a need to some extent. Poe is too athletically gifted to pass on this late. |
| 26 |  |
Nick Perry |
OLB/DE |
USC |
The Texans want to take over the AFC South, and their defense is already scary good. Even with Reed and Barwin on the outside, adding a rotational guy like Perry would be a great move. Their team has very few holes.....if any. |
| 27 |  |
Whitney Mercius |
OLB/DE |
Illinois |
Lost their two best pass rushers, Carter and Anderson. They need to stop waiting around for some hidden gem to come in and give them 12 sacks. Mercilus can do that. |
| 28 |  |
Andre Branch |
DE |
Clemson |
Isn't the elite pass rusher they are looking for, but a good player none the less who could very well be a double digit sack player down the road. |
| 29 |  |
Courtney Upshaw |
OLB |
Alabama |
BPA. This pick has Ozzie written all over it. We will find a way to make him effective. |
| 30 |  |
Devon Still |
DT |
Penn State |
This team doesn't really need anything other than depth. Zeitler is a reach here sort of, and Still would provide depth behind Smith and McDonald. He is a FORCE. |
| 31 | |
Jerel Worthy |
DT |
Michigan State |
New England improves the front seven in this draft. Pairing Worthy with Wilfork would be a force. |
| 32 |  |
Coby Fleener |
TE |
Stanford |
Another pick I am tired of seeing, but it just adds to an already insane offense. Zeitler is a possibility here, so is Jeffery, but Fleener is a sure thing at TE. |
| Round 2 | |||||
| 33 | |
Kevin Zeitler |
OG |
Wisconsin |
Got someone to throw to, now just keep Bradford upright and open holes for Jackson. |
| 34 | |
Shea McClellin |
OLB |
Boise St. |
Pagano is switching over to a 3-4 base, and he would love to get a beast like McClellin to fill that hybrid role. |
| 35 | |
Mohammed Sanu |
WR |
Rutgers |
Nice pair for Ponder to throw to with Harvin already there. Sanu is a tough WR. |
| 36 | |
Doug Martin |
RB |
Boise State |
Nice compliment to the power back, Blount. |
| 37 | |
Brandon Boykin |
CB |
Georgia |
Sheldon Brown is winding down his career. Skrine barely played. Good player to put next to Haden. |
| 38 | |
Chandler Jones |
DE |
Syracuse |
Good, solid pick who may turn into a stud down the road. |
| 39 | |
Kendall Reyes |
DT |
UCONN |
Great player for Greg Willia......I mean good player. |
| 40 | |
Alshon Jeffery |
WR |
South Carolina |
Signing Steve Smith was a very good move. Now give them another guy to go with Smith and LaFell. Carolina is turning into a force. |
| 41 | |
Mike Adams | OT |
Ohio State |
Still get a quality Left Tackle to replace Bell. |
| 42 | |
Reuben Randle |
WR |
LSU |
Marshall gone. I hope Dolphins fans don't really believe that Bess and Hartline are the future? |
| 43 | |
Zach Brown |
LB |
North Carolina |
Seattle could use better coverage from their LB's and Brown is one of the best athletes in this draft. |
| 44 | |
Brock Osweiler |
QB |
Arizona State |
Chiefs miss on Tannehill, but get the strong arms Osweiler. I think Chiefs fans are starting to realize that Cassell was a mistake. |
| 45 | |
Amini Silatolu |
OG |
Midwestern State |
Cowboys miss on DeCastro in the first, but still get one mean SOB here with Silatolu. |
| 46 | |
Josh Robinson |
CB |
Central Florida |
Speed demon to go with Asomugha and DRC. |
| 47 | |
Alfonzo Denard |
CB |
Nebraska |
Rex Ryan type of player, good in press coverage. Not sure how this recent arrest will hurt him. |
| 48 | |
Chase Minnefield |
CB |
Virginia |
Patriots defense needs help everywhere. |
| 49 | |
Harrison Smith |
SS |
Notre Dame |
Pure BPA. Nice player to pair with the young star, Weddle. |
| 50 | |
Jayron Hosley |
CB |
Virginia Tech |
Tough, smart player who could tear it up behind that pass rush. |
| 51 | |
Lavonte David |
LB |
Nebraska |
Their offense is set, and their defense is starting to come together. David is a good player to compete with Matthews. |
| 52 | |
Vinny Curry |
DE |
Marshall |
Titans could use some pass rush help from their DE's. |
| 53 | |
David Wilson |
RB |
Virginia Tech |
Benson is on the way out. Fans have supported Bernard Scott for too long. |
| 54 | |
Bobby Massie |
OT |
Ole Miss |
One of the better athletes along the O-Line in this draft. Keeping Stafford upright down the road could possibly lead to a Superbowl. |
| 55 |  |
Peter Konz |
OC |
Wisconsin |
Falcons would love to find a LT for the future, but that is tough to do without a 1st round pick. Konz could step in a Guard until Todd McClure is ready to step down. |
| 56 | |
Kelechi Osemele |
OT/OG |
Iowa St. |
Pittsburgh needs help at everywhere but Center |
| 57 | |
Mychal Kendricks |
ILB |
California |
Great player to possibly take over for Joe Mays. |
| 58 | |
Michael Schwartz |
OT |
California |
Cut RT Eric Winston. Allen is rising up draft boards as well. |
|
|
|||||
| 60 | |
Lamar Miller |
RB |
Miami |
Ryan Grant may be on the way out, and Miller is a stud to pair with Starks. |
| 61 | |
AJ Jenkins |
WR |
Illinois |
One of the best route runners and set of hands in this draft. Immediate contributor for the best QB in the league. |
| 62 | |
Brandon Brooks |
OG |
Miami (Ohio) |
Could stand to upgrade over Adam Snyder. Brooks would solidify one of the best, young O-Lines in the league. |
| 63 | |
Ronnell Lewis |
OLB |
Oklahoma |
BB continues to add to his defense. Lewis is a stud. |
| 64 | |
Markelle Martin |
FS |
Oklahoma St. |
Martin should not make it out of the 2nd round at all, he is a premier talent in this draft that falls because of injuries. Adding Martin along with Rolle and Phillips would cause terror. |
| Round 3 | |||||
| 65 | |
Brian Quick |
WR |
Appalachian St. |
A big, tall WR to pair with Wayne. Luck will start out with some quality pass catchers. |
| 66 | |
Brandon Thompson |
DT |
Clemson |
BPA here, helps patch up their D-Line even more |
| 67 | |
Brandon Taylor |
S |
LSU |
Minnesota has an up and coming Safety in Mistral Reynolds. Putting Taylor next to him, although he is a SS, would not be a bad move. |
| 68 | |
Brandon Weeden |
QB |
Oklahoma St. |
Not the biggest fan of Weeden, but I think Cleveland holds out for either Barkley or Jones next year and gives Colt McCoy another shot. Weeden would add competition, possibly start. |
| 69 | |
Bobby Wagner |
ILB |
Utah St. |
Another player that is flying up draft boards. TB could use help at ILB for sure. |
| 70 | |
Brandon Washington |
OG |
Miami |
Help keep RG3 on his feet. The status on Lichtensteiger is still up in the air after ACL and MCL injuries. |
| 71 | |
Trumaine Johnson |
CB |
Montana |
Gives them depth to a solid secondary that has Mathis and Ross in it. |
| 72 | |
Jamell Flemming |
CB |
Okalhoma |
Drayton Florence wasn't at his best in 2011. |
| 73 | |
Bruce Irvin |
OLB |
West Virginia |
Pair this animal with Wake. Not good for opposing QB's. |
| 74 | |
Brandon Mosley |
OT |
Auburn |
Colombo allowed 9 sacks in 2011 and did not do much for Reggie Bush. |
| 75 | |
Alameda Ta'amu |
NT |
Washington |
Kelly Gregg is on the tail end of his career. Ta'amu is a beast. |
| 76 | |
LaMichael James |
RB |
Oregon |
Great change of pace back to the powerful Marshawn Lynch. |
| 77 | |
Juron Criner |
WR |
Arizona |
One of the better set of hands in this draft. Not the fastest guy, but tough as can be. Would fit in nicely next to Andre. |
| 78 | |
Jared Crick |
DE |
Nebraska |
Rex Ryan will find a way to use this crazy white boy. |
|
|
|||||
| 80 | |
Cam Johnson |
DE |
Virginia |
Could turn into a monster after sitting behind JJ for a few years. |
| 81 | |
Dwayne Allen |
TE |
Clemson |
Bears get a steal here and a nice option behind Kellen Davis. |
| 82 | |
Zebrie Sanders |
OT |
Florida St. |
Help across from Levi Brown. |
| 83 | |
Ben Jones |
OC |
Georgia |
4 years starter in the SEC. Even though Costa is a Terp, he had some piss poor performances last year. |
| 84 | |
Michael Brewster |
OC |
Ohio state |
Help for CJ2K. |
| 85 | |
Sean Spence |
OLB |
Miami |
Losing Rivers doesn't hurt too much, but there is now an open roster spot at OLB. |
| 86 | |
Casey Heyward |
CB |
Vanderbilt |
Nice nickel/dime option behind Robinson and Grimes |
| 87 | |
Billy Winn |
DE |
Boise St. |
Pure BPA here to add to an already vicious D-Line. |
| 88 | |
Mike Martin | DT |
Michigan |
Only thing worse than Big Ben's hat last year was some of the big time yards they gave up to good RB's. |
| 89 | |
Troy Brown |
OG |
Troy |
Very good utility Lineman to keep Peyton on his feet. |
| 90 | |
Chris Polk |
RB |
Washington |
Shady is a stud, but is Dion Lewis? Polk is a quality back. |
| 91 |  |
Chris Givens |
WR |
Wake Forrest |
Meachem left town for San Diego, Givens is a quality replacement. |
| 92 | |
Orson Charles |
TE |
Georgia |
Just another athletic freak for Rodgers to throw to. |
| 93 | |
Josh LeRibeus |
OG |
Southern Methodist |
Not being able to grab a Guard in the 1st two rounds, Ozzie picks up LeRibeus to compete with Jah Reid and others for Grubbs' old spot. |
| 94 | |
Ladarius Green |
TE |
Louisiana-Lafayette |
Maybe the steal of the 3rd round. Green could turn into a massive WR given how fast he is. Little Harbs loads up on trench players and play makers in this draft. |
| 95 | |
Senio Kelemete |
OG |
Washington |
Quality depth to keep Brady upright. |
|
96 |
|
Robert Turbin |
RB |
Utah St. |
Turbin is flying up draft boards. His size and power cannot be ignored, and he would fill the hole left by Jacobs. |
