2013 NFL Mock Draft
Round 1 of 2
1. KC: Luke Joeckel, OT, Texas A&M
With a possible Brandon Albert trade coming soon, the Chiefs will need to plug in Joeckel as soon as his name is called at the podium.

2. JAX: Dion Jordan, OLB, Oregon
Jacksonville's inept pass rush last season receives an immediate speed boost with the addition of Jordan on the outside.

3. OAK: Sharrif Floyd, DT, Florida
Eric Fisher is still on the board, which may result in a trade up here or even at No. 2. If Oakland sticks here or somewhere in the Top 10, look for them to add Floyd or Star Lotulelei.

4. PHI: Ezekiel Ansah, DE, Brigham Young
Ansah's high ceiling has garnered a lot of interest. There are also rumblings that the Eagles are interested in Geno Smith.

5. DET: Eric Fisher, OT, Central Michigan
The Lions are going to trade up to grab Fisher and swap places with a team in the Top 3 or 4. Detroit could also add a defensive end

6. CLE: Dee Milliner, CB, Alabama
Paired with Joe Haden, Milliner would be one of the better CB2s in the NFL. Cleveland could also look at a pass rusher or another option along their defensive front.

7. ARI: Star Lotulelei, DT, Utah
For most of the offseason, draftniks have assumed the Cards would add an offensive tackle due to their inability to pass protect for Kevin Kolb and John Skelton. Instead, they opt for the best player available on their board, Lotulelei.

8. BUF: Tavon Austin, WR, West Virginia
Rather than draft his teammate Smith, the Bills add Austin, the dynamic receiving threat who can get upfield in a hurry.

9. NYJ: Barkevious Mingo, DE, LSU
Mingo should go to the Jets whether it is here or possibly at No. 13. The Jets will need improved pass rushers since their coverage won't be as good with Darrelle Revis out of town.

10. TEN: Lane Johnson, OT, Oklahoma
Johnson is rumored to be a Top 10 player but he's not plug and play ready in the eyes of some scouts. Look for the Titans to add some protection for Jake Locker and someone who can clear a path for Chris Johnson, their future depends on it.

11. SD: Jonathan Cooper, OG, North Carolina
Cooper is also rumored as a possible Top 10 pick. He slips ever-so-slightly to No. 11 into the arms of the Chargers. Creating more breathing room for Philip Rivers and running lanes for Ryan Mathews has to be a top priority, even with their struggles on defense.

12. MIA: Chance Warmack, OG, Alabama*
Warmack is an absolute stud and will have a sure-fire career. The Dolphins don't add a sexy pick, but they do add a quality talent they can build around for a decade.

13. NYJ: Kenny Vaccaro, SS, Texas
Since Austin is off the board and Tyler Eifert might be considered a reach, the Jets opt for a safety, which they've needed for multiple years.

14. CAR: Sheldon Richardson, DT, Missouri
Richardson won't escape the Top 15 and finds a good home in Carolina, a team that should've drafted a defensive tackle a year or two ago.

15. NO: Xavier Rhodes, CB, Florida State*
Rhodes is a bit overrated in my book, but scouts love his size and press-man potential. The Saints can already score, now they rebound on the defensive side of the ball.

16. STL: Alec Ogletree, LB, Georgia*
Ogletree's red flags have been beaten into the ground and that's never stopped Jeff Fisher from getting his guys. When considering pure athleticism, Ogletree has it in spades.
