NFL Mock Draft 2012

2012 NFL Mock Draft 

Round 1

1. Indianapolis (2-14) Andrew Luck, Stanford, QB: Ask any scout and they will most likely tell you that Andrew Luck is one of they best Players that they have ever graded. That being Said Andrew Luck will be the pick here, they may give RGIII a look but even still this pick is pretty much a lock.
2. Washington - from St. Louis (2-14) Robert Griffin III, Baylor, QB: The second QB in the class, and First to some will get picked up by the Redskins. It goes with out saying that the Redskins didn't trade up for anyone else.
3. Minnesota (3-13) Matt Kalil, USC, LT: There is a chance that they could trade down if there are any offers so that they might fill more needs. But assuming that doesn't happen I have the Vikings taking the Stud LT from USC Kalil. With this Ponder gets an instant upgrade for his Blind side, a welcome sight I am sure.
4. Cleveland (4-12)  Trent Richardson, RB, Alabama: The Browns just lost peyton Hillis and as such need a replacement. Now I've heard they are happy with the Talent they have at Half Back but I'm calling bullshit on that. In my humble opinion there halfback position could defiantly be upgraded so why not upgrade with the best halfback in the draft. He fits the range as well.
5. Tampa Bay (4-12)  Morris Claiborne, CB, LSU: I know they just signed Eric Wright but that man couldn't be trusted to cover a snail. But then again who can cover a beast like that. All joking aside their best corner could be headed for jail and is a nut case, Barber their other starter is old and could retire at any time and Eric Wright is no answer for this. Caliborne is very talented, fits the range and will instantly bolster the Bucs Defense as well as Special Teams.
6. St. Louis - from Washington (5-11)  Riley Reiff, OT, Iowa:  This Pick is tricky cause it could go anyway between Blackmon and Reiff. I'm going with Reiff cause the Rams just cannot allow Bradford to catch David Carr Syndrome otherwise it's Game over mann, game over.
7. Jacksonville (5-11) Justin Blackmon, WR, Oklahoma State: This is really a great fit and a great pick for the jags if it happens. Gabbert's biggest Plus area of the field to throw to is those Intermediate to Short routes which happen to the Blackmon's area of expertise. And even though Gabbert looked really bad last season you have to get your man some weapons and this Jags roster is defiantly missing that.
8. Miami (6-10)  Kirk Cousins, QB, Michigan State: Just like last year with the Vikings and Ponder I have Miami reaching for Cousins. A few reasons for this, firstly Miami needs a QB and I'm sorry but Moore is not the answer, secondly Cousins is a leader and I think that's something the Phins could use. As for why Cousins over Tannehill? Simple I like Cousins more, he is not as raw, more accurate, throw power is a push, and a better leader. They will win more early and can possibly get a stud franchise QB.
9. Carolina (6-10)  Dontari Poe, DT, Memphis: Poe's stock saw a huge boost after the combine and for good reason that's alot of weight coming at you at a fast speed. And with that Boost I now have him in the top ten filling a huge need at DT for the Panthers.
10. Buffalo (6-10)  Quinton Coples, DE, North Carolina: Why? Didn't the Bills just sign Super Mario? Yes, yes they did. But come onn....commeee onnn. If Coples was across from Mario and Dareus that would be damn scary. Assuming Coples actually tries when he gets there. He is a great physical specimen but I doubt his motor.
11. Kansas City (7-9)  Jonathan Martin, OT, Stanford:  Right tackle Barry Richardson for the Chiefs is not good, especially in pass protection. so with this pick they get a much needed upgrade in there pass protection as well as run support to go along with there shiny newish Halfback hillis.
12. Seattle (7-9)  Melvin Ingram, DE, South Carolina: When it came to getting to the QB Seattle kinda sucked at it with this pick the Seahawks will get an instant upgrade over Free-Agent Brock to put across from Clemons.
13. Arizona (8-8)  David DeCastro, G, Stanford: They need help all over that O-line and help they shall receive with this classes #1 interior lineman. Plus whether it be Manning or Kolb both will love this pick.
14. Dallas (8-8)  Cordy Glenn, OT/G, Georgia: And these are my reasons why. Left guard Derrick Dockery sucks and missed most of 2011 with a knee injury. Center Phil Costa sucks. Right guard Montrae Holland, meanwhile, also sucks. Interior linemen are needed. Romo's collarbone agree's with me.
15. Philadelphia (8-8) Luke Kuechly, ILB, Boston College: Assuming the LB position is not addressed in free agency it will then be addressed in the draft and at 15 Kuechly College footballs lead tackler offers good value.
16. New York Jets (8-8)  Courtney Upshaw, DE/OLB, Alabama: The jets need to up grade there pass rush so that they can open up their defensive play calling up some. It's been really blitz heavy to make up for the lack of pass rushers. As for why Upshaw over Perry? I like him more. And as anyone will tell you all the NFL agrees with me cause I'm all knowing and awesome.
17. Cincinnati - from Oakland (8-8)  Stephon Gilmore, CB, South Carolina: Getting a little tricky here and placing Gilmore over Jenkins and Dre' and here is why. Firstly Gilmore is a better fit for the Mike Zimmer Defense. Second I think they will fall in love with his agreesive style of play. And third Gilmore is my #2 CB after running well at the combine and showing up very well in drills.
18. San Diego (8-8)  Michael Floyd, WR, Notre Dame:  After losing V-Jax in free agency I think the team may look to get a new #1 Receiver who just so happens to fit the V-Jax mold. Also at 18 this is a great value pick. Assuming Floyd avoids off season problems.
19. Chicago (8-8)  Michael Brockers, DT, LSU:  Brockers take a bit of a fall here in my mock but that drop is Chicago's gain. Not a huge need but great value here and even though it's not a huge need the position could still defiantly use a bit of an upgrade.
20. Tennessee (9-7)  Janoris Jenkins, CB, North Alabama: Alot could happen in Tennessee over the next few days but one thing that has already happened was losing their #1 cornerback. Jenkins who albeit is a risky pick does offer the talent to take over that position if he stays clean and apply's himself. 
21. Cincinnati* (9-7)  Lamar Miller, RB, Miami: The Bengels are probably going to move away from cedben this year and Lamar the second best halfback in this draft could be a good replacement. Plus miller is a stud.
22. Cleveland - from Atlanta* (10-6)  Kendall Wright, WR, Baylor: Simple pick, fit's a need and this range is about correct for Wright, even after his poor combine.
23. Detroit* (10-6)  Dre Kirkpatrick, CB, Alabama: Detroit needed Corners before free agency. And now they still do after losing Wright when Tampa Bay signed him. Dre' fit's this range and it's actually a bit of a value pick. Some teams and scouts do have this man as there second overall CB personally he is my third CB.
24. Pittsburgh* (12-4)  Dont'a Hightower, ILB, Alabama: After releasing all of the Linebackers. (RELEASE ALL THE LINEBACKERS) Pittsburgh should probably get a new one. Hightower fit this range and fits that need.
25. Denver* (8-8)  Fletcher Cox, DT, Mississippi State: I think the interior of the Broncos D-Line is a bit suspect. Cox who is high on most people's boards but is pretty low on mine in relation would still be an instant upgrade.
26. Houston* (10-6)   Nick Perry, DE/OLB, USC: Another simple pick seen as how they just lost Super Mario. Perry will hopfully fill the hole left by him. Perry defiantly fits this range.
27. New England - from New Orleans* (13-3) Devon Still, DT, Penn State,  With Albert Haynesworth gone, they need to address the front line. Devon Still could go as high as No. 15, so the Patriots are getting great value with this selection. 
28. Green Bay* (15-1) Vinny Curry,OLB, Marshall, The packers could use a man across from Mathews to get after the quarterback. Vinny Curry defiantly fit's that bill and after seeing a boost in his stock after a seller pro day I can defiantly see him going in the later first round.
29. Baltimore* (12-4) Mike Adams, OT, OSU
30. San Francisco* (13-3) Trade Arizona (8-8)  Brock Osweiler, QB, Arizona State: I Felt like getting a little crazy. Anywho I have them trading up and taking a very talented but raw prospect in Osweiler. I have them making this move for a few reasons one they have a situation were they can groom Oswelier for a year which is something he could use being the raw prospect he is. Also every year something crazy happens so clearly my mock needed a crazy move.In addition two those two points this pick would also push Kolb to work harder for his job so that's a plus as well. (Trade for 2nd and 4th this year and a second next year)(had I not gotten crazy I would have had the 49ers taking the raw prospect  Stephen Hill, WR, Georgia Tech "incase" Moss does not work out)
31. New England* (13-3)  Whitney Mercilus, DE, Illinois: Going with a value pick here. Mercilus could be a player taken in the top-20 possibly so at the end of the first that might just be to good to pass up.
32. New York Giants* (9-7) David Wilson, RB, Virginia Tech: Mayhaps a talented HB at the end of the first to replace Jacobs? At this point he has really good value as well as re-adding the one, two punch back into the offensive play.calling
