Fanspeak: Mock Drafts

HOUSTON TEXANS FINAL 7-ROUND MOCK DRAFT:   1st Round: 26. Houston Texans- WR Rueben Randle, LSU: The Texans should look to give Matt Schaub a welcome back gift with this draft pick. Randle would be a nice complement to Andre Johnson, and would move Kevin Walter to the slot (where he is a better fit). … More »

INDIANAPOLIS COLTS FINAL 7-ROUND MOCK DRAFT:      1st Round: 1. Indianapolis Colts- QB Andrew Luck, Stanford: The Colts won’t debate this pick much, and even though they could auction this pick off to the highest bidder, I really can’t see them passing on Luck. Luck might not be the greatest thing since sliced bread, but he … More »

JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS FINAL 7-ROUND MOCK DRAFT:  1st Round: 7. Jacksonville Jaguars- DE Melvin Ingram, South Carolina: While the Jags will be tempted to add a weapon with this pick, it is way too high to take a receiver. Ingram is an elite pass rusher, and will make the Jags defense vastly better. Teaming him and Mincey … More »

PITTSBURGH STEELERS FINAL 7-ROUND MOCK DRAFT:   1st Round: 24. Pittsburgh Steelers- OL Cordy Glenn, Georgia: The Steelers need to find some upgrades at a number of spots, with the offensive line being perhaps the most pressing need. Pittsburgh could look for help at either guard or tackle making Glenn a smart selection. 2nd Round: … More »

BALTIMORE RAVENS FINAL 7-ROUND MOCK DRAFT:   1st Round: 29. Baltimore Ravens- OT Mike Adams, Ohio State: The Ravens could look to find a tackle here as Bryant McKinne doesn’t seem to be the long term answer at LT. Also Michael Oher’s struggles at RT could lead to the team looking to move him inside. It … More »

CINCINNATI BENGALS FINAL 7-ROUND MOCK DRAFT:   1st Round: 17. Cincinnati Bengals (via Oakland)- WR Michael Floyd, Notre Dame: One of the Bengals top priorities this offseason is to add weapons for Andy Dalton. While A.J. Green was a good first step, the Bengals need to add more targets. Running back is a greater need, but … More »

CLEVELAND BROWNS FINAL 7-ROUND MOCK DRAFT:   1st Round: 4. Cleveland Browns- RB Trent Richardson, Alabama: The Browns can go in any number of directions, and I still think that Tannehill could be the surprise pick for them, but Richardson is the safe pick here. Regardless of what QB plays next year the Browns are … More »

NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS FINAL 7-ROUND MOCK DRAFT:    1st Round: 27. New England Patriots (via New Orleans)- SS Mark Barron, Alabama: The Patriots need to find some major defensive upgrades in this draft. If Mark Barron is on the board they will probably grab him. Pairing him with 2009 2nd rounder Patrick Chung could give … More »

BUFFALO BILLS FINAL 7-ROUND MOCK DRAFT:   1st Round: 10. Buffalo Bills- OT Riley Reiff, Iowa: The Bills could look to go CB here, but if Reiff is on the board he can fill the void left by Demeterius Bell in free agency. Bell is a very talented blocker and looks to be a franchise … More »

NEW YORK JETS FINAL 7-ROUND MOCK DRAFT:  1st Round: 16. New York Jets- OLB Courtney Upshaw, Alabama: It’s really amazing that the Jets have been able to generate much pressure at all considering the lack of a truly great pass rusher. Outside of getting a better option at QB (and no Tim Tebow isn’t that … More »
