Figured Id post my pre free agency/post combine mark draft. Everyone else does one. Why not me?
Spoiler
Round 1
1. Kansas City (2-14) Luke Joekel OT Texas A&M -Safest pick for Andy Reid
2. Jacksonville (2-14) Jarvis Jones OLB Georgia - Gus Bradley drafts a better version of Bruce Irvin. This is assuming the Jags clear Jones medically and look past the spinal senotosis
3. Oakland (4-12) Sharif Floyd DT Florida- Best 4-3 DT in the draft and the Radiers need them.
4. Philadelphia (4-12) Eric Fisher OT Central Michigan- Im assuming Phlly restructures Nnamdi and picks up defensive help with tons of cap room.
5. Detroit (4-12) DeMarcus Milliner CB Alabama- Lions need help at DE and corner. Milliner is clearly the best player on the board.
6. Cleveland (5-11) Dion Jordan OLB Oregon- DC Ray Horton gets a 3 down OLB for his 3/4 defense
7. Arizona (5-11) Geno Smith Qb West Virginia- new coach Arians gets the best QB for his new regime. Has to be better than Skelton/Lindley right?
8. Buffalo (6-10) Cordarelle Paterson WR Tenn- Allows Stevie Johnson to move into the slot. Reminds some of Julio Jones. Reminds me of Stephen Hill
9. New York Jets (6-10) Ziggy Ansah OLB BYU - Huge risk/reward pick. Freakish big athlete who Ryan can use as a 3/4 OLB or as a 4/3 end in his hybrid defense.
10. Tennessee (6-10) Xavier Rhodes Cb Florida St- Flying up the draft board. Titans need cb help bad
11. San Diego (7-9) Lane Johnson OT Oklahoma- Could go higher as the draft gets near
12. Miami (7-9) Bjorn Werner DE Florida St- Slides on draft day and Miami snatches him up
13. Tampa Bay (7-9) Desmond Trufant CB Washington - Another rising cb
14. Carolina (7-9) Sheldon Richardson DT Missouri- Big presence needed for Carolinas D
15. New Orleans (7-9) Star Lotulelei DT/DE Utah Falls due to the heart condition. Saints get a big time end for their 3/4 defense
16. St. Louis (7-8-1) Kenny Vaccaro S Texas- Best player on the board for the Rams
17. Pittsburgh (8-8) Barkevious Mingo OLB LSU- Steelers get a big time outside rusher for the 3/4
18. Dallas (8-8) Jonathan Cooper OG UNC- Best player on the board fills a big need for the Cowboys
19. New York Giants (9-7) Tyler Eifert TE Notre Dame- Big time pass catching option for Eli
20. Chicago (10-6) Dj Fluker OT Alabama- Finally some O line help
21. Cincinnati* (10-6) Alec Ogletree LB Georgia- Talented and troubled. Typical Bengals guy
22. St. Louis - from Washington* (10-6) Keenan Allen WR Cal- #1 option for Bradford
23. Minnesota* (10-6) Tavon Austin WR West Virgina- Harvins replacement
24. Indianapolis* (11-5) Jonthan Banks CB Miss St- Bad 40 time but the tape doesnt lie
25. Seattle* (11-5) Kawann Short DT Perdue- Fills a big need
26. Green Bay* (11-5) Jamie Collins OLB Southern Miss- Fastest riser in the draft. Gives Packers another pass rusher
27. Houston* (12-4) Manti Te'o ILB Notre Dame- Someone finally takes him
28. Denver* (13-3) Matt Elam S Florida- Reminds alot of Brain Dawkins
29. New England* (12-4) Sly Williams DT UNC- Gives them another interior pass rusher
30. Atlanta* (13-3) Datone Jones DE UCLA- They cut Abraham and find his replacement
31. San Francisco* (11-4-1) Jothan Cyprien S Florida International- Best safety available
32. Baltimore* (10-6) Kevin Minter ILB LSU- A replacement for Ray Lewis
• Washington -> St. Louis: Robert Griffin
