| Pick | Team | Player | Pos. | School |
| Round 1 |
| 1 |
Chiefs
| Luke Joeckel | OT | Texas A&M |
| Reid has a history of drafting QBs later on, plus with the Alex Smith acquisition I can't see them taking Geno Smith here. |
| 2 |
Jaguars
| Dion Jordan | DE | Oregon |
| New coach Gus Bradley will be looking for playmakers that fit his defense. I think the Jaguars aren't ready to invest a high pick at QB or give up completely on Gabbert just yet. |
| 3 |
Raiders
| Sharrif Floyd | DT | Florida |
| Probably could play inside or out. Another defensive minded coach looking to tool up the D. |
| 4 |
Eagles
| Geno Smith | QB | West Virginia |
| New regimes usually mean new quarterbacks, if the Eagles to go with Geno here I could see them going after E.J. Manuel later on. |
| 5 |
Lions
| Eric Fisher | OT | Central Michigan |
| Toss up between Fisher and Milliner, I think priority #1 has to be to keep Matt Stafford healthy. |
| 6 |
Browns
| Dee Milliner | DC | Alabama |
| Between Milliner and Sheldon Richardson for me here, I think when facing the Steelers and Ravens twice a year (even without Boldin) that you'd want two lock down corners to throw out there on islands. |
| 7 |
Cardinals
| Lane Johnson | OT | Oklahoma |
| The run on big men continues as the Cardinals finally address their woeful O-line. |
| 8 |
Bills
| Cordarrelle Patterson | WR | Tennessee |
| The Bills have made no secret about wanting a QB, however, I think they like Manuel and Nassib the most, pick 8 may be to early so I have them taking Patterson. The Bills lost both Donald Jones and David Neslon this year and Patterson would be a great compliment to Stevie Johnson. |
| 9 |
Jets
| Xavier Rhodes | DC | Florida State |
| I expect Revis to be traded, Rhodes would help fill the void. |
| 10 |
Titans
| Sheldon Richardson | DT | Missouri |
| Tennessee addresses their defense which ranked in the bottom of the league last year. |
| 11 |
Chargers
| Chance Warmack | OG | Alabama |
| Losing Louis Vasquez to the Broncos, prompts the Bolts to upgrade the position. |
| 12 |
Dolphins
| Ezekiel Ansah | DE | BYU |
| A pass rusher is one of the few things Miami didn't splurge on in the offseason. |
| 13 |
Jets
F/TB
| EJ Manuel | QB | Florida State |
| This is either the Jets pick or time running out on Josh Freeman. |
| 14 |
Panthers
| Star Lotulelei | DT | Utah |
| Could be a dominant inside force for defensive minded coach. |
| 15 |
Saints
| Barkevious Mingo | OB | LSU |
| May be a natural fit in Rob Ryan's 3-4. |
| 16 |
Rams
| Tavon Austin | WR | West Virginia |
| Bradford needs weapons, the Rams lost both Brandon Gibson and Danny Amendola. Wouldn't be surprised if they went with RB Eddie Lacy here but I think WR is the greater need. |
| 17 |
Steelers
| Jarvis Jones | OB | Georgia |
| Look for Jones to fill the void left by the departure of James Harrison. |
| 18 |
Cowboys
| Kenny Vaccaro | FS | Texas |
| May be a good center fielder in Monte Kiffin's 4-3. |
| 19 |
Giants
| Bjoern Werner | DE | Florida State |
| Giants continue to stack the d, may be looking for some pass rush help with Osi's departure. |
| 20 |
Bears
| Alec Ogletree | IB | Georgia |
| Out goes Urlacher, in goes Ogletree. |
| 21 |
Bengals
| DJ Fluker | OT | Alabama |
| Just when you thought the run on tackles was over, in comes Fluker. He'll replace Andre Smith, who I believe the Bengals will be too cheap to re-sign. |
| 22 |
Rams
F/WAS
| Eddie Lacy | RB | Alabama |
| Out with Stephen Jackson, in with Eddie Lacy. |
| 23 |
Vikings
| Sylvester Williams | DT | North Carolina |
| Minnesota continues the run of big men and bolsters their interior. |
| 24 |
Colts
| Datone Jones | DE | UCLA |
| Jones may be a better fit than the aging Dwight Freeney for what Pagano wants to do on D. |
| 25 |
Vikings
F/SEA
| Keenan Allen | WR | California |
| Vikings finally start addressing the loses of Sidney Rice and Percy Harvin. |
| 26 |
Packers
| Desmond Trufant | DC | Washington |
| Out goes Woodson in goes Trufant, Desmond has the lineage as his older brother Marcus was a quality DB in the league for many years. |
| 27 |
Texans
| Matt Barkley | QB | Southern Cal |
| Schaub always gets hurt and never lives up in the post-season. Barkley has the intangibles and great numbers in college. If you flip his junior year with his senior year at USC we're talking top 3 pick this year for him. I wouldn't be surprised if he went earlier with maybe someone trading backup to use the additional 1st round picks that the Vikings and Rams hold. |
| 28 |
Broncos
| Cornellius Carradine | DE | Florida State |
| Denver needs some help on the outside after losing Dumervil. |
| 29 |
Patriots
| Jamar Taylor | DC | Boise State |
| Almost went WR here but if they land Emmanuel Sanders I think WR is out of the picture this early. |
| 30 |
Falcons
| Tyler Eifert | TE | Notre Dame |
| Even with Tony Gonzalez returning I think the Falcons will pull the trigger on his replacement here. |
| 31 |
49ers
| Eric Reid | FS | LSU |
| Looking for longer term replacement for Goldson. |
| 32 |
Ravens
| DeAndre Hopkins | WR | Clemson |
| Almost went Teo here but I think Ozzie Newsome is smarter than that. With the addition of Rolando McClain I think WR may be the bigger need. |
