Author's Comments
For now, I am just using ESPN power rankings to determine my draft order.
1 - KC: Geno Smith, QB, West Virginia
6'3,215-This is a weird spot for KC. They really need a QB and aren't desperate anywhere else. However, I don't think there's a QB worth being taken number one. So I think KC will try trading down a couple spots with someone who needs a pass rusher or DT. I don't want to mess with trades though. So Geno Smith it is.

2 - JAX: Jarvis Jones, OLB, Georgia
6'3,240-I think Barkley would be a big reach here. Why take another iffy young QB while you already have another one developing on your roster? If this was last year it would be a different story, but it's not. Build up a solid team then take another stab at QB next year if you still think you need to.

3 - PHI: Matt Barkley, QB, USC
6'2,225-Joeckel is definitely an option here and if this team didn't need a complete makeover then I'd say he's the pick. However, Philly needs to clean house and it starts with a new coach and a new QB.

4 - OAK: Manti Te'o, ILB, Notre Dame
6'1,250-No more QBs to pick from at this point and that defense is hideous. They aren't desperate at LB and could really use CBs or a speed rusher. But I think a guy that can come in and turn their defense around on day one will serve them best. Te'o will do that. He's just too good for this team to pass on.

5 - CAR: Star Lotulelei, DT, Utah
6'4,320-Again, Joeckel is an option here. I like the thought of bringing him in to play on the right side until they eventually move Gross over, similar to what Dallas and Detroit have done recently. They can find a developmental player later though. There's talent on this roster and they need a guy that will make a difference right now. Lotulelei and Kuechly together should make this team really tough to run on for the next decade.

6 - CLE: Damontre Moore, DE, Texas A&M
6'4,250-Jabaal Sheard looks like a stud and he will only get better with a book end as relentless and quick as Moore. This could be Freeney/Mathis 2.0.

7 - TEN: Johnathan Hankins, DT, Ohio State
6'3,325-They've developed a couple solid DTs lately and they could use some help in the secondary or on the edge. I just really think this defense needs a new Haynesworth to get the rest of their young talent on track.

8 - ARI: Luke Joeckel, OT, Texas A&M
6'6,305-Obviously, I think Joeckel could be gone by now. If not, Arizona will hit the jackpot. A guy that looks like he could come in and contribute right away on the left side. Maybe by next year Bobby Massie will have developed a little more and all of the sudden this really, really bad O-line will have a couple young book ends to build from.

9 - BUF: Bjoern Werner, DE, Florida State
6'4,255-As talented as he is, Mario Williams just doesn't seem completely comfortable in Buffalo yet. Another year in the system may help but I'm not sure how much this defensive likes to live and die by him. Maybe a young guy with a big motor will help push him a little.

10 - NYJ: Barkevious Mingo, OLB, LSU
6'5,240-If the production matched the talent he'd be in the top 3 mix. In fact, his high ceiling probably still has him there. As it stands, there is still a lot of work to be done, but if Rex Ryan is still in New York next year he will know exactly how to get that production out of him.

11 - SD: Dee Milliner, CB, Alabama
6'1,200-There are problems on both sides of the ball right now in San Diego. Offensively I think it's just a matter of Phillip Rivers clearing his head a little and maybe some tweaks along the O-line. Defensively, I think it's more growing pains than anything. They are building a good, young defense and a CB with shut-down potential needs to be part of that project.

12 - STL: Taylor Lewan, OT, Michigan
6'7,305-Jeff Fisher has had a head start in rebuilding this roster with the extra picks he got from the RGIII trade. There are still plenty of holes on this team but Fisher's first order of business is to find out if Bradford's his QB of the future. That means giving him the best possible chance to succeed. He drafted a lot of young skill players last year and now he needs to rebuild that offensive line, starting with his blind-side OT.

13 - DET: Dion Jordan, DE, Oregon
6'6,240-Like Mingo, Dion Jordan is a long, lanky athlete with great burst and plenty of frame to build on, all of which equals a very high ceiling as a pass rusher. He doesn't completely fit the system right now but I think he may just be too intriguing of a prospect for Detroit to pass on.

14 - DAL: Chance Warmack, OG, Alabama
6'3,320-The OTs in Dallas are solid, but the interior of that line is on a Chicago Bears level of bad. Even as an OG, Warmack would be a huge steal at 14. Lined up next to Tyron Smith, the left side of this line would soon be dominant.

15 - MIA: Keenan Allen, WR, California
6'3,205-I can't get a good read on who the best draftable WR is in this year's class. At this point, Keenan Allen and Justin Hunter are 1-A and 1-B. Either way, Miami should be very excited about a true #1 WR for their promising, young QB.

16 - STL: Kenny Vaccaro, SS, Texas
6'1,210-Looking at their roster, I see OLB as a giant hole. While the Rams could wait until the second round to grab one, they could also draft a guy here who can eventually replace the aging Quintin Mikell and also pick up a lot of the responsibilities of an OLB at the same time.

17 - MIN: Sylvester Williams, DT, North Carolina
6'2,320-The long line of Williams DTs continues. After Kyle Williams retires, I like the dynamic of Letroy Guion playing the 3-tech and Sylvester Williams at NT.

18 - NO: Cornellius Carradine, DE, Florida State
6'5,260-New Orleans needs play makers on defense. There are a few ways they could go, but taking advantage of this DL heavy draft would be wise. There are a couple developmental guys I really like on their roster, but you can never have enough of these guys.

19 - PIT: Jonathan Jenkins, DT, Georgia
6'4,360-Tomlin cleaned house recently and did it by getting rid of solid veterans who were big parts of their recent championship teams. So I wouldn't be surprised to see it again soon. If this is the case, they should probably start drafting guys to replace those future ex-Steelers.

20 - SEA: Justin Hunter, WR, Tennessee
6'4,205-Again, in my book you could switch out Keenan Allen and Justin Hunter here, but this is what I'm going with for now. Anyway, Seattle has a couple quick slot guys, but they brought in Sidney Rice, Braylon Edwards, Mike Williams and even Terrell Owens via free agency in search of a big body to take the top off of defenses. None of these guys worked out like they hoped and now with a young QB in place, Seattle needs to draft a go-to deep man.

21 - TB: Johnthan Banks, CB, Mississippi State
6'2,185-A ball hawk like Banks would thrive in this system, but even more, Tampa is very thin in the secondary.

22 - CIN: Ezekiel Ansah, DE, BYU
6'6,275-Ansah is the kind of long, rangy DE the Bengals love. They also love to rotate their linemen and he, Michael Johnson, and Carlos Dunlap would make an exciting trio.

23 - IND: Sheldon Richardson, DT, Missouri
6'3,290-A versatile front 7 is what make this system work, so focusing on that area should be a huge part of the rebuilding project in Indy. Sheldon Richardson would be a great fit.

24 - GB: Giovani Bernard, RB, North Carolina
5'10,205-This is a bit of a reach but Gio Bernard just looks like a pro running back to me. The Packers aren't really desperate for much, if anything, but they could use a RB that is capable of more than just hitting a hole and falling forward a few yards. A guy like him could really help Green Bay finish out games. Not to mention, think about what this passing attack could be like with a running game teams have to plan for.

25 - NYG: Sam Montgomery, DE, LSU
6'4,250-There are some ceiling questions with Montgomery, but he is still very talented and he has a great motor. Umenyiora seems to have one foot out the door every off-season and Kiwanuka has turned out to be the team's best LB. Sounds like a good excuse for Coughlin to take another DE early to me.

26 - DEN: Kawann Short, DT, Purdue
6'3,315-A guy that can draw double teams and clog things up on the inside would be a great compliment to Derek Wolfe who would then be free to move up and down the line to find mis-matches.

27 - CHI: Jonathan Cooper, OG, North Carolina
6'3,315-After watching their game against the 49ers, I decided Jay Cutler should be a first ballot hall of famer. That O-line is a joke. I honestly don't think they could keep LSU away from the QB right now. Since they could literally take left through right OT at this point, I say they just go with the best O-linemen available.

28 - NE: Robert Woods, WR, USC
6'1,190-He's fallen on a lot of boards from once being the number one WR in the class but I still like him. Also, I think he would be a perfect fit in New England's system and considering they could be without their top three WRs in the next year or two they should probably start looking for replacements.

29 - BAL: Alec Ogletree, ILB, Georgia
6'3,235-There is a ton of talent with Ogletree if someone can tap into it. With a year or two learning behind Ray Lewis, this kid could be a big time difference maker.

30 - SF: Sharrif Floyd, DT, Florida
6'3,300-This is probably the most complete team in football. At this point they should just be looking to fill depth behind veterans. Justin Smith makes this team go but he's also in his mid-30's. San Fran runs a versatile defense and Sharrif Floyd is a versatile D-lineman.

31 - ATL: Eric Fisher, OT, Central Michigan
6'8,300-Eric Fisher could definitely keep moving up boards, but for now I see him as a project..but still probably better than any other blind-side blocker on Atlanta's roster.

32 - HOU: Dallas Thomas, OT, Tennessee
6'5,295-Houston lost the right side of it's O-line last year. Although they obviously haven't been too hurt by it, rebuilding there wouldn't hurt. Thomas is versatile and although he projects as an OG at the next level, I think he could be a solid right OT in Houston's zone blocking scheme.

Below Average -- Philly grabbing Barkely makes no sense. The Rams not grabbing a stud WR like Terrance Williams or the USC WRs is crazy... even Tyler Eifert would be solid for them.

-- I don't see why Philly taking Barkley makes no sense. I definitely think it's a reach, but that happens with QBs pretty often. The Rams took Brian Quick and Chris Givens last year and I don't think Eifert is worth the #17 pick.

Poor -- I agree with 2nd comment, the rams will take a WR in round one, they have two picks and last year they went Brockers and Jenkins, Detroit won't pass up Banks, at least in this draft, the eagles drafted Foles and have voiced their commitment to him,

Average -- Eagles have Foles, they dont need more QB drama. Rams need a stud WR because Quick still cant beat Gibson or Amendola out of the starting lineup. If he was "good" he would've already.

-- Are the Eagles committed or is Andy Reid and his staff committed? This is on the assumption they completely move forward. I don't know that a whole new staff will come in and automatically give Foles the keys to the franchise.
