TAC's Mock Draft 1-16

While reading this keep in mind that this is what I think will happen; not what I want to happen. So hopefully some of my predictions are wrong but we shall see! Enjoy.

1. Indianapolis - Andrew Luck QB, Stanford

This has been a lock since Week 14 of last year. No big surprises here.

2. Washington - Robert Griffin III QB, Baylor

The 'skins has been in desperate need of a QB since...Brad Johnson (2000)? O_o.

3. Minnesota - Matt Kalil OT, USC

There are a couple of areas that Minnesota could fill here but in-order to compete with anybody your young QB have to stay off the ground.

4. Cleveland - Trent Richardson RB, 'Bama
C'mon Cleveland! This is your shot to take the best RB in the draft this year and with P. Hillis leaving; it make sense...don't mess it up.

5. Tampa Bay - Moe Claiborne DB, LSU

How do you compete in a division with Brees, Ryan, and Cam??? Make sure your secondary is on the up and up. Aquib Talib is the most talented but has an issue with staying out of trouble and Ronde Barber is turning 52 this year.

6. St. Louis - Justin Blackmon WR, Oklahoma State

You made a splash with taking a franchise QB in 2010 plus Stephen Jackson is still a work horse. Gotta go with the best wide-out.

7. Jacksonville - Fletcher Cox DT, Mississippi St.

The Jags are in a tough position...it seems like the pick inbetween 7- 10 each year! This is a gut pick; Cox.

8. Miami - Ryan Tannehill QB, Texas A&M

Peer pressure will definitely make this a "too soon" pick. He might have an awesome career but I don't believe he is a plug and play QB right now.

9. Carolina - Luke Kuechly LB, Boston College

Those backers used to be the focal point of Carolina's defense and with your current core being injury prone; there is no other choice.
10. Buffalo - Stephon Gilmore DB, South Carolina

The Bills' secondary are looking to move toward more man-to-man and away from the cover 2. Gilmore size and ability will make the transition a smooth one.

11. Kansas City - David DeCastro OG, Stanford

Building a Pro Bowl O'Line is the recipe for success. The Chiefs can start here.

12. Seattle - Quinton Coples DE, North Carolina

Could be a Pete Carrol experiment. He has the ability but does he have the will? Pete will surely "Rah,Rah,Rah" him to death if he doesn't.
13. Arizona - Riley Reiff OT, Iowa

Think about it...most of Arizona highlights were either PP running one back or Kevin Kolb on the ground...I rest my case.
14. Dallas - Mark Barron S, 'Bama

Cowboys secondary was the weak point of last year's unit. They need a play-maker now and Barron fits the bill. (SN: I see Jerry pulling the trigger on s draft day trade...just keep your eyes open).

15. Philadelphia -Micheal Brockers DT, LSU

Stout run defender...they need one.

16. New York Jets - Melvin Ingram DE, South Carolina

Something about Rex Ryan says they'll take Ingram. He'll fit the Jets scheme perfectly.

Stayed tuned for Picks 17-32 a little later today!
