First Mock of the season and lets start it off with a trade. Buffalo moves up to grab a new franchise QB and Tennessee moves down to grab a few picks to fix various holes along both the offensive and defensive line.Changes will come as the season progresses.
1 - KC: Geno Smith, QB, West Virginia
Smith is not the next Cam Newton, but he is not the next Vince Young either. A solid franchise QB.

2 - CLE: Sam Montgomery, DE, LSU
Montgomery can provide a much needed force for the Browns front seven.

3 - JAX: Luke Joeckel, OT, Texas A&M
Jacksonville will probably stay with Gabbert for at least another year, if the sacks dont kill him. Joeckel may help take some of Gabbert's fear of the pocket away.

4 - OAK: Barkevious Mingo, OLB, LSU
The Raiders love fast and athletic guys. Mingo would have been Al Davis' saving grace, but Mingo is just the type of player Oakland needs upfront.

5 - NYJ: Jarvis Jones, OLB, Georgia
The Jets have an awful offense, and they can meet those needs later, but when your defense continuely can't get to the QB for several years a pass rusher is far and away priority number one. The Jets need a guy like Jones to create pressure that has been non-existant in recent memory.

6 - BUF: Matt Barkley, QB, USC
(TEN) Buffalo trades up to grab Barkley. Barkley would fit the bill for the Bills, no pun intended (well, maybe). Buffalo needs a reliable QB and unfortunately Fitzpatrick is not cutting it for the team from upstate.

7 - TB: Star Lotulelei, DT, Utah
Shiano is a powerful defensive minded coach who is looking for leaders on his team. His no non-sense attitude is great for a young defense and Lotulelei can help provide leadership next to Gerald McCoy to create a dynamic duo up front.

8 - CAR: Kawann Short, DT, Purdue
Carolina cannot stop the run, and when that happens they can't win. The Panthers are looking for a big body up front. Short is a powerful run stuffing bull who consistantly gets into the backfield.

9 - STL: Justin Hunter, WR, Tennessee
Jeff Fisher wants his #1 WR, and he may finally not miss out this year.

10 - DET: David Amerson, CB, North Carolina State
Detroit's secondary is terrible. Pass coverage may seem foreign to the Lions now, but Amerson is a ballhawk who can help turn Detroit's secondary around.

11 - STL: Jake Matthews, OT, Texas A&M
Bradford needs protection, and Matthews may help St.Louis' signal caller stay in the league a few more years.

12 - NO: Dee Milliner, CB, Alabama
New Orleans defense is in disarray. The Saints will need help up front but Milliner may be too good to pass up because corner is now a priority.

13 - IND: D.J. Fluker, OT, Alabama
Luck will get some protection for the future, which will help him advance to an elite QB in no time.

14 - TEN: Chance Warmack, OG, Alabama
(BUF) Chris Johnson is, at best, a mediocre running back when holes don't open up for him as we have seen. He has no patience in the backfield and his ball carrier vision has declined. Warmack could help the Titans save Johnson from himself and get him rolling again.

15 - MIA: Keenan Allen, WR, California
Tannehill would love a reciever that he can depend on and Allen could contend to be the first receiver off the board.

16 - CIN: Bjoern Werner, DE, Florida State
Werner is a difference maker. The comparisons to Jared Allen are not far off, and to even make it this far is amazing. If the Saints do not grab the German Warlord, then the Bengals will have themselves a steal with the "Beast from the East".

17 - DAL: Johnathan Hankins, DT, Ohio State
Dallas was very interested in Dontari Poe and lucky for them, they chose to pass. Hankins however is the nose tackle that Jerry Jones was looking for, giving the Cowboys the opportunity to move Jay Ratliff to DE and help regenerate the pass rush.

18 - ARI: Taylor Lewan, OT, Michigan
I'm torn between Tyler Wilson and Taylor Lewan. The Cardinals will want to give Fitzgerald a quality QB at some point before he retires, but maybe their investment in Kolb won't grow useless if his protection gets better. Lewan could take over at LT and along with Massie help create a sustainable offensive line.

19 - CHI: Manti Te'o, ILB, Notre Dame
The Bears love Brian Urlacher and always will. but it may be time to find his successor, and who better to fill his shoes than the man who closest resembles him. Te'o could begin his career as the SLB and when Urlacher's knees finally give out, he could move over to MLB and become the leader of the defense.

20 - MIN: Johnthan Banks, CB, Mississippi State
The Vikings need a DT next to Kevin Williams, but Banks could solidify a secondary that has a lot of potential.

21 - SD: Xavier Rhodes, CB, Florida State
The Chargers might as well tell everyone who they will be drafting in August, because everyone already knows. Rhodes is the next defensive player to step in and take the reigns for San Diego who really will need to upgrade their secondary, especially is Caisone leaves.

22 - PIT: Barrett Jones, OG, Alabama
The Steelers still have holes along their offensive line, and even their promising young lineman continue to get hurt. The good news for Pittsburgh is they might have found their swiss army knife in Jones, who has the ability to fill any vacant position along the line.

23 - PHI: Eric Reid, FS, LSU
The Eagles will want another pass rusher, but safety is a concern for Phillidelpia who has the opportunity to fill the void Brian Dawkins left behind with this years draft.

24 - DEN: Marcus Lattimore, RB, South Carolina
John Fox will want a running back who can find the endzone, especially since Peyton Manning is not the rocket armed genius he used to be. Even though the genius is still there, he will begin to rely more on the rushing attack in the future and that is exactly what John Fox will want.

25 - NYG: Jonathan Jenkins, DT, Georgia
The Giants do need help in the secondary, but that just always seems to be a spot where injuries pile up for New York. The Giants can help take double teams off of Pierre-Paul if they line up a guy like Jenkins next to him who can take up space and keep blockers attention while the former creates havoc on the QB.

26 - SEA: Jonathan Cooper, OG, North Carolina
Seattle defense is solid and their offensive line needs a little help. Carpenter has not panned out and Seattle needs to find players like Cooper, who can step in on day one.

27 - NE: T.J. McDonald, FS, USC
McDonald can provide Belichick with another young stud defensive weapon to pair with Chandler Jones and Dont'a Hightower.

28 - GB: Rick Wagner, OT, Wisconsin
Rodgers' needs help on his blindside, and Wiscosin lineman always seem to succeed in the NFL. Taking over right away at one of the tackle positions opposite Brian Bulaga will help Rodgers get back to his old gun slinging ways.

29 - ATL: Tyler Eifert, TE, Notre Dame
Tony Gonzalez is close to the end, even though he is still producing well. Eifert can step right in and continue to provide the Falcons with a redzone matchup nightmare just like the future first ballot Hall of Famer.

30 - BAL: Robert Woods, WR, USC
Torrey Smith is becoming a solid WR and option for Flacco, but his big arm could still do more damage. If Flacco wants to be an elite QB then he must have two wideouts that he can count on, and both will have great speed for the deep attack.

31 - SF: Jackson Jeffcoat, DE, Texas
Jeffcoat would be dangerous across from Aldon Smith, and would give the 49ers a pair of edge rushers who QB's might cry at night about.

32 - HOU: Corey Lemonier, DE, Auburn
Mario Williams is gone, and there are still hardly and holes in this teams game. Lemonier can help provide depth as well as a serious pass rush for the Texans.
