Mike Iupati |
OG |
Idaho |
|
|
[pick from Bears] The Broncos have made it apparent that they must improve the interior offensive line. Iupati has been
flying up draft boards and he's expected to go within the top 15. |
|

|
Derrick Morgan |
DE |
Georgia Tech |
|
|
The Dolphins have multiple options on draft day. Derrick Morgan, Dan Williams, Earl Thomas or trade
down all could be possibilities. |
|

Joe Haden |
CB |
Florida |
|
|
The Niners lack playmakers in the secondary and they will be happy to select a top 10 corner with the
13th pick. They could also look offensive line. |
|

|
C.J. Spiller |
RB |
Clemson |
|
|
[pick from Broncos] The Seahawks lack a true playmaking option on the offensive side of the football. Without a true
workhorse running back, the team will look to bring in one of the fastest players in this year's class. |
|

|
Rolando McClain |
ILB |
Alabama |
|
|
The Giants desperately need help in their linebacking core, especially inside. McClain is a top 10 talent
who falls right into their laps. |
|
|
|
Earl Thomas |
S |
Texas |
|
|
The secondary needs help at all positions, especially at free safety. Thomas is a young, versatile
player who can play both free safety and nickel corner. |
|

|
Anthony Davis |
OT |
Rutgers |
|
|
[pick from Panthers] The Niners failed to address the offensive line with their first pick, so they will likely take the top
available tackle with #17. Davis is the mauler that the Niners prefer. |
|
18. |
|
Maurkice Pouncey |
C |
Florida |
|
|
The Steelers must improve the offensive line so that they can build upon their smash mouth running
game. Pouncey is one of the top centers to come out in years. |
|
19. |
|
Brandon Graham |
DE |
Michigan |
|
|
It looks like the Falcons will draft a defensive end who can be a three-down player. Graham is a solid
edge rusher who can excel in 4-3 defense. |
|
20. |
|
Ryan Mathews |
RB |
Fresno State |
|
|
The Texans could be a #1 running back away from legitimate contention. Mathews has been flying
under the radar but warrants a first round pick. |
