Here it is, my second annual mock draft, I was pretty far off on my picks last year but what can you do? My picks, unbiasedly of course, are the correct ones that teams should make or the ones that everyone knows that they really need to make.
1. Houston Texans- DE Jadaveon Clowney, South Carolina. This team is in desperate need of a quarterback, but this guy's too good to pass up, especially with the lack of first round talent at the quarterback position.
2. St Louis Rams (From Washington)- OT Greg Robinson, Auburn, even though they desperately need wide receivers and a real quarterback, they will go with Robinson
3. Jacksonville Jaguars- OLB/DE Khalil Mack, Buffalo. Three top teams that desperately need quarterbacks, but will not take them, Mack is too good of a fit in Bradley's system that he wants to run
4. Cleveland Browns- QB Johnny Manziel, Texas A & M. more of a marriage of need then skill, he doesn't have the size or the skill
5. Oakland Raiders- Sammy Watkins, WR, Clemson. One of the Raiders favorite type of players, big strong and fast. Could see Mack here if Jacksonville takes Watkins, who's going to throw him the ball in either place is a mystery to me.
6. Atlanta Falcons- Jake Matthews, Texas A & M, OT.
7. Tampa Bay Buccaneers- WR Mike Evans, Texas A & M
8. Minnesota Vikings- QB Blake Bortles, Central Florida- hope they're ready for another quarterback bust after 2 years of Ponder
9. Buffalo Bills- OT Taylor Lewan Michigan, this is a pick that I really wasn't sure about with where to go, so I went to the mock drafts and took the most often selected player.
10. Detroit Lions- TE Eric Ebron North Carolina, with Calvin Johnson on the outside they can use a reliable tight end, other places I could see them going is either corner or safety
11. Tennessee Titans- CB Justin Gilbert Oklahoma State, a good cover corner after the loss of Alterraun Verner
12. New York Giants- DT Aaron Donald Pittsburgh, would've loved to see him in a Bears uniform but I highly doubt he'll be there at 14.
13. St Louis Rams- WR Odell Beckham Jr LSU, not a fan of him, especially compared to the rest of their receivers, who are all small receivers instead of big receivers but he's serviceable
14. Chicago Bears- S Calvin Pryor, Louisville. The Bears need help at corner, safety, and defensive tackle, based on who's gone already I have to go with Pryor over the injury prone HaHa Clinton Dix
15. Pittsburgh Steelers- CB Kyle Fuller, Virginia Tech, another pick where I'm not sure where they might go, but makes sense based on available players
16. Dallas Cowboys- OT Zach Martin, Notre Dame, solid starter who can make plays on the line
17. Baltimore Ravens- I really haven't got a clue where they may go here, possibly WR or a prime contender to trade down
18. New York Jets- WR Brandon Cooks Oregon State, they need to put receivers out there for Geno Smith/Mike Vick
19. Miami Dolphins- ILB CJ Moseley Alabama
20. Arizona Cardinals- QB Derek Carr, Fresno State, its a good pick for a team with a 35 year old quarterback where he can learn behind him for a year, but I'm not sold on him overall
21. Green Bay Packers- OLB Ryan Shazier Ohio State, fits into their scheme
22. Philadelphia Eagles- Kelvin Benjamin Florida State, solid receiver to replace DeSean Jackson
23. Kansas City Chiefs- WR Marqise Lee USC
24. Cincinnati Bengals- CB Darqueze Denard Michigan State, if he drops this far, barring someone trading up this will be the quickest pick of the first round
25. San Diego Chargers- OLB Anthony Barr UCLA
26. Cleveland Browns- This pick I have no clue on, they could go a lot of ways, it all depends on what they do with #4 and the rest of the draft
Past these I have no clue but here are some guys who could go:
Ra'shede Hageman- DT from Minnesota
Teddy Bridgewater- QB from Louisville, could be this year's Geno Smith, drops out of first round but early 2nd
HaHa Clinton Dix- S from Alabama, I have major injury concerns over him
