jagden's Mock Draft (Round 1)

1 - KC: Luke Joeckel, OT, Texas A&M
Andy Reid and crew will go with safe pick and despite their attempts to trade down will get a solid player for the future to build on.

2 - JAX: Bjoern Werner, DE, Florida State
Jags pick a J.J. Watt clone to match the real one they run into twice a year.

3 - OAK: Star Lotulelei, DT, Utah
How many Raiders jerseys are going to be running around with Star on the back of them? Soft white underbelly of the D-line will need a Star like this.

4 - PHI: Eric Fisher, OT, Central Michigan
This Chippewa can keep up in the frenetic offense that Chip Kelly promises to bring to Philly, as well as Brotherly love nasty attitude.

5 - DET: Damontre Moore, DE, Texas A&M
With veteran pass rushers possibly being gone, Lions must keep pass rush up with Rodgers, Cutler, and yes Ponder in division.

6 - CLE: Geno Smith, QB, West Virginia
Chudzinski belives he can do with Geno what he did with Cam in Carolina. Norv Turner will have younger, bigger, more athletic, less talkative Rivers to work with.

7 - ARI: Matt Barkley, QB, USC
Bruce Arians has proven he can work with young QBs( Big Ben & Luck) Barkley won't be there the next time around in 2nd.rd.

8 - BUF: Ezekiel Ansah, DE, BYU
The Bills need to add heat opposite Super Mario and with Geno already gone and Nassib maybe available in 2nd., Buffalo goes with unstoppable force.

9 - NYJ: Lane Johnson, OT, Oklahoma
With the Jets trading for disappointing Jason Smith last year and subsequently releasing him in the off season, this seems like no brainer. But knowing Rex he'll go with another undersized overrated DE/OLB.

10 - TEN: Johnthan Banks, CB, Mississippi State
Unlike last year, the Titans will have their pick of CBs and they go with taller, lankier Banks instead of Millner though by just a hair.

11 - SD: Chance Warmack, OG, Alabama
Chargers have to add some charge back in their line. This Bama slama will be much appreciated by both Rivers and Mathews.

12 - MIA: Keenan Allen, WR, California
With the QB position looking to be solidified, Dolphins go with WR that can take top off defense.

13 - TB: Dee Milliner, CB, Alabama
Buccaneers simply need to get younger at position and with Milliner available he should play well with former Bama teammate Barron.

14 - CAR: DeAndre Hopkins, WR, Clemson
With such a deep draft at the O-line Carolina goes with giving Newton more toys to throw to.

15 - NO: Dion Jordan, DE, Oregon
The Saints need to revamp a very porous defense and with Sean Payton back the helm they go with pass rush freak.

16 - STL: Zach Ertz, TE, Stanford
With this pick the Rams kill two birds with one stone. They need O-line help and they need help in the red zone, Ertz comes from pro style offense so he can both block and catch.

17 - PIT: Jarvis Jones, OLB, Georgia
Emerging QBs Flacco, Dalton, and a possible Geno, the steel curtain needs to cure some of the rust that has collecting on the edges. This Dawg is just the WD-40.

18 - DAL: Jonathan Cooper, OG, North Carolina
The Cowboys go with nasty attitude in the middle of their O-line to help ensure Romo has sufficient time to throw plenty of TDs and INTs.

19 - NYG: Sheldon Richardson, DT, Missouri
With Canty and Osi gone, the G-men choose man in the middle that has non-stop motor.

20 - CHI: Barrett Jones, OG, Alabama
The versatility is why Barrett Jones has found his way into the 1st. rd. With injuries all along the line, the Bears take solid player who can play up and down the line.

21 - CIN: Kenny Vaccaro, SS, Texas
Initially I had put Teo in this spot but I think the Marvin Lewis will go with deep coverage because Andre Johnson just seems to kill them come playoff time.

22 - STL: Alec Ogletree, ILB, Georgia
Fisher's reluctance to pick O-linemen in the first round, the Rams go with flash linebacker that will fit in nicely with very good young defense.

23 - MIN: Dallas Thomas, OT, Tennessee
The Vikings might lose Phil Loadholt to free agency and with the way Ponder was pressured at times Thomas can play in the RT spot and later be switched to G.

24 - IND: Barkevious Mingo, OLB, LSU
Again with so much depth in the offensive line it allows Colts to add to a rebuilding young defense. Bayou Bengal Barkevious should help with the lose of Freeney.

25 - SEA: Johnathan Hankins, DT, Ohio State
The Clemons lose for the playoffs really showed in the Atlanta playoff game. So Carroll goes strong inside rusher to go with quick outside rusher Bruce Allen.

26 - GB: Alex Okafor, DE, Texas
The Packers need to match pass rush that is generated by Matthews on one side. Okafor does just that and is disruptive in coverage.

27 - HOU: Tavon Austin, WR, West Virginia
Having seen Wes Welker and Brandon Lloyd have their way with them in playoffs, Houston decides to get an explosive playmaker that works well in space.

28 - DEN: Phillip Thomas, SS, Fresno State
Some may think this is a reach but Phillip Thomas is an Ed Reed in the making. With him back there Ravens perhaps are sitting at home for Superbowl??

29 - NE: Margus Hunt, DE, Southern Methodist
Highly athletic and very, I mean very raw. Even with such rawness, this Mustang is a match up nightmare and with Patriot coaching he should develop nicely.

30 - ATL: Jonathan Jenkins, DT, Georgia
The 49ers combo of Gore and James showed how vunerable the middle of the Falcon defensive line was. Jenkins gets in- state nod over Kawaan Short (Purdue)

31 - SF: Xavier Rhodes, CB, Florida State
Rhodes flashed in the Senior Bowl and showed very well overall in game. And with the Ravens flying past San Francisco cornerbacks, Harbaugh goes with big physical body.

32 - BAL: Kevin Minter, ILB, LSU
Ray Lewis' retirement may lead to this pick but that is only part of this pick. Minter can also rush the passer thus help ease a possible lose of Paul Kruger.
