Mock Draft 2.0

1. St. Louis- QB Sam Bradford.  Just a matter of him signing the dotted at this point.
2. Detroit- DT Ndamakong Suh.  Detroit wants to trade back, but adding Suh to their rebuilt line makes the most sense if they don't move out.
3. Tampa Bay- DT Gerald McCoy.  The Bucs have the dream scenario of grabbing either DT at the 3 spot.
4. Washington- OT Russell Okung.  Donovan McNabb trade makes protecting him a necessity.
5. Kansas City- OT Brian Bulaga.  This pick improves the whole left side of the line- bumping Albert to guard and Waters to center.
6. Seattle- DE Derrick Morgan.  Gives them the rusher off the edge they need.  Plus, he's the most complete DE in the draft.
7. Cleveland- S Eric Berry.  Best player left on the board immediately improves a weak secondary (along with the Sheldon Brown acquisition.)
8. Oakland- DE Jason Pierre-Paul.  Al Davis loves freakish athletes.  Pierre-Paul fits the bill.
9. Buffalo- QB Jimmy Clausen.  They desperately need a QB, and he's the best left on the board.
10. Jacksonville- WR Dez Bryant.  Gives David Garrard a target on the outside.
11. Denver- CB Joe Haden.  Injects some youth into an aging secondary.
12. Miami- DT Dan Williams.  Need to find an eventual replacement for the suspended Jason Ferguson.
13. San Francisco- OT Trent Williams.  Can play either side of the line, and they need a right tackle.
14. Seattle- OT Anthony Davis.  Has the potential to be the best o-lineman in the draft.  Good haul with Morgan and Davis, thus far.
15. New York Giants- ILB Rolando McClain.  Fits their biggest need following the Antonio Pierce release.
16. Tennessee- DT Brian Price.  Never really able to replace the production of Albert Haynesworth.  Here's a young, talented player to aid in that production.
17. San Francisco- CB Kyle Wilson.  Playmaker to add to a decent secondary.  Not bad grabbing Williams and Wilson.
18. Pittsburgh- G Mike Iupati.  Fits the Steeler mold on the o-line.
19. Atlanta- DE Everson Griffen.  They need a pass rusher in the worst way.
20. Houston- RB CJ Spiller.  Not sure of the long-term effects of the Steve Slaton injury.  Gives Matt Schaub another weapon.
21. Cincinnati- TE Jermaine Gresham.  Fills their biggest need, and gives Carson Palmer a target in the middle of the field.
22. New England- DE/OLB Sergio Kindle.  Hybrid player that fits the Pats greatest need.
23. Green Bay- OT Bruce Campbell.  They need to protect Aaron Rodgers for the long-term.
24. Philadelphia- S Earl Thomas.  Best player left on the board.  Also, fits their secondary needs.
25. Baltimore- OLB/ILB Sean Weatherspoon.  Ozzie Newsome tends to hit on his first round picks  This kid is a winner.
26. Arizona- DE/OLB Brandon Graham.  They need a playmaker on defense following the losses of Karlos Dansby and Antrel Rolle.
27. Dallas- C/G Markice Pouncey.  The last legit lineman they were able to groom on the interior line was Andre Gurode in 2002.  They need an infusion of youth here.
28. San Diego- DT Terence Cody.  They need to replace Jamaal Williams production in the worst way.
29. New York Jets- S Taylor Mays.  Gives Rex Ryan a toy to play with in the secondary.
30. Minnesota- CB Devin McCourty.  Their secondary was beaten too much in 2009.
31. Indianapolis- DT Jared Odrick.  A player who can take pressure off of Dwight Freeney and Robert Mathis.
32. New Orleans- CB Kareem Jackson.  After mixing and matching players in the secondary, it would be nice for the Champs to have a young player to groom for the future, while making plays in the present.
