PrintI will be doing trades, I am not 100% sure of the new trade-value chart so I may over/under value some trades.
I will explain picks that I feel need some elaboration as to my thought process. Comment with your opinions on the Mock
ROUND 1
1. Indianapolis Colts: Andrew Luck, QB
2. Rams: Matt Kalil, LT
3. Minnesota Vikings: TRADE to Washington Redskins: Robert Griffin III, QB - VIkings obtain: 2012: 1, 2 2013: 2,3 - will be in a bidding war with the Browns

9. Carolina Panthers: Dre Kirkpatrick, CB
10. Buffalo Bills: Courtney Upshaw, OLB
11. Kansas City Chiefs: Jonathan Martin, OT
12. Seattle Seahawks: Trent Richardson, RB - Lynch may be on his way out since he is a FA
13. Arizona Cardinals: TRADE to Cincinnati Bengals: David DeCastro, OG- Cardinals obtain: 2012: 1(oak), 3, 5- not a bad deal to get the best guard in the draft for the Bengals, Cardinals can get the WR or RT they want later in the draft
14. Dallas Cowboys: Janoris Jenkins, CB
15. Philadelphia Eagles: Luke Kuechly, ILB
16. New York Jets: Nick Perry, DE/OLB - need to get a better pass rush

19. Chicago Bears: Michael Floyd, WR
20. Tennessee Titans: Peter Konz, OC

24. Pittsburgh Steelers: Dont'a Hightower, ILB
25. Denver Broncos: Devon Still, DT
26. Houston Texans: Mohammad Sanu, WR

29. Baltimore Ravens: Vontaze Burfict, ILB
30. San Francisco 49ers: Kendall Wright, WR
31. New England Patriots: Michael Brockers, DT - I could see Belichek trading this pick, but I can't think of a good trade partner

Texans won't draft a CB at all in this draft
2nd round they’ll look at another WR, a NT, or an OG
Murphy’s 20th Military Law:
If it’s stupid, but it works, it ain’t stupid
"Fuck em all. Go Texans."
Not a bad mick draft for the panthers, still
don’t like Dre kirkpatrick as a top 10 prospect. Hips aren’t very fluid enough to stay with quicker wr, inconsistent locating the ball in the air. Is a press zone cover corner, who is good with safety help. A sure tackled as well. I like alameda ta’amu over Jerel worthy. Juron Criner I like, add more weapons for newton.

DeCastro then Sanders would be a much much much better draft for the Chiefs
I don't start arguments, I provoke thinking. -Me
Josh Chichester TE 2012 Draftee
yeah, the CB would OnlY be good if
KC loses Carr, which i dont believe will happen

If the Vikings could get
Reiff, Jeffrey, and Dennard I would do cartwheels all the way around my apartment. That would be an outstanding start to the draft. Reiff should be a good LT for 10+ years, Jeffrey would add a big, deep threat to the offense, and Dennard would go a long ways in solidifying our terrible secondary. Perfect scenario for the Vikes IMO
Steelers
Both picks work well are excellent.

Packers
first pick is good, but the second pick isn’t. The Packers already have Bulaga, Sherrod and Newhouse. They don’t need a tackle.
Partially agree
If Brockers is still on the board, that will be the pick at 28. I like Curry, but Brockers is much better value at 28, and in a few years he could be the best player in this draft.
But yeah, OT isn’t something we would pick in the second.
Thanks
About Brockers though, don’t you guys have B.J. Raji already to fill that spot?
Or does B.J. play a different spot in your scheme?
BJ plays NT for us
Brockers would be an ideal 34 DE for us, something we can definitely use. Picketts age is getting up there, and no one at RE produced all season long.
Colts
You have Indy passing on the best strong safety in the draft who will provide an upgrade and be, at worst, a solid safety and a pretty decent corner for a guard who plays too high and has trouble leveraging his hips? Don’t see it happening, especially since Pagano has a history as a secondary coach. You know he wants to revitalize that unit.
This.
With Barron and Jeffery on the board, we take a G/RT?
We need to upgrade at WR and CB desperately, that much is clear. Both are great value at that point.
And I’m not a Rams fan, but the thought of them passing up Alshon at #33 with their lack of receiving weapons.. eh.
I don't have a right to an opinion, apparently.
Writer at ColtsAuthority.
I see
Barron could be an option there, but I think that you have to protect Luck before building anything else. We have some good tackles and I think we should continue to build the line. Could get a Brandon Boykin in the 3rd to help out secondary and maybe a SS in the 4th.
Glenn also has been projected from mid-1 to early-2.
Glenn is also overrated and the Colts are really looking for a center and a right guard as far as the O-line goes since Joe Reitz played very well last year and established great chemistry with Costanzo. This isn’t a great center class and you can get a good right guard in the middle rounds. Further, this isn’t a good strong safety class either and the only one who would really be an upgrade over Caldwell/Lefedge would be Barron.
The secondary is easily the poorest unit on the Colts so if someone like Barron, Minnifield, or Dennard drop out of the first, you know the Colts are going snap that guy up.
I like the pick
I’m with indycolts on this one. Barron is a bit over rated in my opinion. He belongs in the mid-second, so he is only marginal from a value standpoint at #34. Jeffrey is tempting there, but they seem to really like Glenn. He did well at the Senior Bowl and I would actually be a little surprised if he lasts this long. Glenn could be a dominant RT or Guard to shore up the OL in front of Luck. If we are rebuilding I would rather start in the trenches.

i think the cardinals will take Decastro if he's there at 13
by CardsDefense on Feb 9, 2012 10:59 PM EST via mobile reply actions
But
I like the idea of trading down especially if it is only a few and we can still get a 1st round talent in Adams
I think
Adams is the kind of tackle Grimm loves. I don’t agree, but I think they keep Levi and draft Adams. If they are in love with Adams, I love this trade. just wish we could get our 2nd rounder back.
Giants
I could see this as a possibility.
My QB has 2 rings. Well, 3 if you want to get technical.
2012 NYG mock - 1: Dwayne Allen TE, 2: Brandon Boykin CB/RS, 3: A.J. Jenkins WR, 4: Vick Ballard RB, 5: Neiko Thorpe S, 6: Rishard Matthews WR/RS, 6: Blake DeChristopher G/T, 7: BPA
Chargers
Still or Jeffery at 18 please, both on your the board and both are way better than Mercilous. Ta’amu would have been my 2nd pick Markelle Martin or Polk could have also worked
Winning
I don't know who the Tackle is you have the Jets picking.
but at least you addressed their needs.
And the home of the .... JETS!!!
Now lets get a G-D snack!!!

He's a left tackle
So huge improvement in pass blocking. Just needs to clear medical (shoulder).

If it only takes a 1st and a 2nd with a future third to get to RGIII and the Chiefs don't offer something more
You will have many pissed off fans. I know many fans that would right now hope the team is willing to give up 2 firsts and a 2nd for him.
Seahawks
Dislike. We’ll franchise Lynch if needed. If we take a RB, it will be with a bonus 2nd round pick from a trade, or down in the third or fourth rounds.
I could see them taking a pass-rush DE or OLB or one of each in the first 2 rounds. Our defense needs speed in the front 7
True...
…but with Coples, Upshaw and Ingram all off the board I don’t think there’s good pass-rush value at 11/12 – that’s too early for Perry, Mercilus, etc. Richardson is the clear BPA and provides great Lynch insurance/successor.
Might make more sense to trade back with an RB needy team that covets Richardson (Bengals?)
If there’s not a trade and the board falls this way, who should be the pick?
That's the million dollar question
If no one is willing to trade with us, I’d say Perry or Mercilus. Maybe Zack Brown if we don’t resign Leroy Hill (which seems likely) Honestly, I’m praying for someone to fall, or to trade down.
Bucs
Love Claiborne. I like Lavonte David, but I think that spot is way too early for him. I’d take either Barron or Osemele there. Probably Barron.
Jags
Toon is so not worth the 6th pick of the second round. Dennard and Criner are the guys I see going in the second that I think are better options

Like Still in the 1st a lot.
Not so crazy about Polk. I’d be surprised if he went in the 2nd after a poor week of practices at the senior bowl and a mediocre performance in the game. I think he goes in the 3rd round. I wouldn’t mind Doug Martin there instead who I would put ahead of Polk on a RB big board.
Wooooot! one of my teams made the postseason and won! PLAYOFFS!!!1
Denver Broncos: 2011 AFC WEST Champs!
Come on Toronto teams, one of you make the goddamn playoffs.
I'd go with David Wilson over Polk and Martin...
But I’m waiting to see all of ’em at the combine to be sure.
There are no apostrophes in plurals.
A lot is two words. Allot can be one word but it has another meaning.
The only time you really want to use "myself" is when you are the recipient of your own action. Usually you're better off using "me."
Your is not the correct contraction of you are. The word you're looking for is you're.
It's anyway, not anyways.
But if you only remember one thing...
There are no apostrophes in plurals.
Texans will not take another CB
Not after drafting 4 in 2 years.
They will most likely shop the FA’s for a vetren corner. Manu, is over hyped and I prey the Texans don’t select him.
True arrogance has been displayed here- WestministerRavensfan or something
Hi My name is Jack, why don't you help me off?
Would you rather have Alshon Jeffery?

No
I would take Jeffery, over Sanu, or Floyd.
But I would like to see if they can get a nice FA WR, or perhaps even trading this pick for some of the “lesser” WR talent. I am a fan of Tommy Streeter, IDKY, but I think he has a skill set more closely resembling Dre then most of the other WR Prospects. I don’t think his hands are as solid as Dre’s were, are. I think it is a better value.

Hi My name is Jack, why don't you help me off?
Well, I'd agree slightly there
He does have the speed advantage over the other WRs in the 1st except for Wright, but I don’t think he’s as physical as those WRs. However, Andre would gladly take a WR from The U under his wing

Vikings
I’m split on this one. I love the trade scenario, and I am good with still landing one of the top 3 OT’s in the process.
Jeffery is good value in the 2nd round, but I have been against a WR that early in the draft. If Jeffery drops some pounds before the combine and runs a 4.5 forty, then I will be more open to this scenario. Right now though, I think I would go with Mark Barron and the best DT available (Poe/Ta’amu/Worthy/Thompson) in round 2.
"At this point, what we got to lose, right? So we might as well throw caution to the wind and hit people in the face."

Seahawks
I think it would the worst idea in the world to let Lynch walk and then spend a high draft pick to replace him. I think Richardson is a possible pick at #12 (though not one I’d like) but not necessarily as a replacement for Lynch. The Seahawks FO wants (a) more “TD makers” and (b) more physical RB depth behind Lynch. Justin Forsett will probably walk, Lynch will probably get re-signed or franchised and there’s a spot on the roster for a guy like Richardson (or Polk) to back-up and, eventually, replace Lynch.
That said, I think the FO is going to focus on defense in the first couple of rounds with an eye towards getting more pass-rush from the front 7.

Agreed
Really doubt they’ll let Lynch walk and hope Richardson falls into their laps.
Given this board, who do you see as the likely pick if not Richardson?
I think they'd like to trade back (we only have 6 picks and the FO believes in quantity over quality)
and I think they’d take the same deal that Arizona gave to Cincinnati, but guys like Perry, Mercilus, Still and Brockers all seem like good fits.

Solid for us. Haven’t had Stephen Hill mocked to us yet, but he’s a guy who’s potential I like. I will be following him closely as he would be a great fit for our offense. Nice job.

Panthers
I like the Kikpatrick pick and the trade, but not the 2 2nd round picks. I would rather take Markelle Martin and Jared Crick
I wanna be the very best, like no one ever was
Steelers
Nice job on their picks. Filling two holes with good players.

Sigh
If Alshon Jeffery is there at the 32 spot, the Giants pull the trigger. But on the other hand I love Dwayne Allen and he’d be awesome on our offense.
