Anyone who is a fan of football LOVES draft weekend. For some reason though im more excited for this year's draft, than say last years. Having tons of holes is never a good thing, but when you get to the draft and you look at the talent and the holes that need filled... you are overwhelmed. This draft, for us, is about as unpredictable as they come. And i can't wait to see who falls, who reaches for a player, what trades may happen, and more important... Who we draft.
I look at our main holes and i see OT, OG, DE, AND LB
Then I take a look at the depth of these positions in the draft.
And I come to a conclusion that results in THIS:
My first and final mock...
1. The Detroit Lions select...Matthew Stafford QB
The Lions desperately need a franchise QB. The only one I see in this draft is USC's Mark Sanchez, but the Lions will see otherwise and choose the mildly overrated Stafford.
2. The St. Louis Rams select... Aaron Curry LB
The Rams lost out on Jake Long last year and honestly, they do need someone to b an anchor on the O-line side of things. However, with this being said. Curry is incredible talent that will instantly make St. Louis's Defense something to keep your out for.
3. The Kansas City Chiefs select... Jason Smith OT
I think almost everyone in the Chiefs organization will agree that if Curry isnt avaliable. They have to take the best OT on the board. That happens to be Smith. Smith needs work, but he is everything you look for in a tackle and a general football player.
4. The Seattle Seahawks select... Eugene Monroe OT
5. The Cleveland Browns select... Michael Crabtree WR
6. The Cincinnati Bengals select... B.J. Raji DT
7. The Oakland Raiders select... Jeremy Maclin WR
8. The Jacksonville Jaguars select... Mark Sanchez QB
9. The Green Bay Packers select... Brian Orakpo DE/LB
10. The San Francisco 49'ers select... Malcolm Jenkins CB/S *Surprise of the draft
11. The Buffalo Bills select... Michael Oher OT
I will add the rest soon...
12. The Denver Broncos select... Aaron Maybin DE
13. The Washington Redskins select... Tyson Jackson DE
14. The New Orleans Saints select... Rey Maualuga LB
15. The Houston Texans select... Clay Matthews LB
16. The San Diego Chargers select... Everette Brown DE
17. The New York Jets select... Josh Freeman QB
18. The Denver Broncos select... Brian Cushing LB
19. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers select... Robert Ayers DE
20. The Detroit Lions select... Percy Harvin WR
21. The Philadelphia Eagles select... Darius Butler CB
22. The Minnesota Vikings select... Eben Britton OT
23. The New England Patriots select... Larry English DE
24. The Atlanta Falcons select... Brandon Pettigrew TE
25. The Miami Dolphins select... Peria Jerry DT
26. The Baltimore Ravens select... Darius Heyward-Bey WR
27. The Indianapolis Colts select... Evander Hood DT
28. The Buffalo Bills select... Clint Sintim LB
29. The New York Giants select... James Laurinaitis LB
30. The Tennessee Titans select... Vontae Davis CB
31. The Arizona Cardinals select... Phil Loadholt
32. The Pittsburgh Steelers select... Alex Mack C
