jarednew's Mock Draft (Round 1)

1 - KC: Matt Barkley, QB, USC
I do not care what people are saying about Barkley having a bad year. Listen, look at the man's stats he has had a great season it is not his fault he has a god-awful head coach. So, Kansas City takes Barkley number 1.

2 - JAX: Geno Smith, QB, West Virginia
Even though I feel that Geno Smith will be a bust, this pick is a no brainer.

3 - OAK: Star Lotulelei, DT, Utah

4 - CLE: Manti Te'o, ILB, Notre Dame
Cleveland's need for a great defensive player and leader will be solved with this pick.

5 - PHI: Luke Joeckel, OT, Texas A&M
The need for a real offensive lineman will be addressed here as the Eagles take Joeckel here.

6 - CAR: Jarvis Jones, OLB, Georgia

7 - BUF: Tyler Wilson, QB, Arkansas
The Ryan Fitzpatrick experiment ends as Buffalo selects Tyler Wilson here.

8 - SD: Johnathan Hankins, DT, Ohio State

9 - NYJ: Damontre Moore, DE, Texas A&M

10 - TEN: Dee Milliner, CB, Alabama

11 - ARI: Taylor Lewan, OT, Michigan
Arizona will finally get the offensive lineman they need here.

12 - DET: Barkevious Mingo, OLB, LSU

13 - STL: Keenan Allen, WR, California
The Rams desperate need for a wide receiver will be solved as Keenan Allen will be taken here.

14 - MIA: Bjoern Werner, DE, Florida State
Another pass rusher in addition to Cameron Wake will present trouble through the NFL.

15 - STL: Chance Warmack, OG, Alabama
The need for the protection of Sam Bradford will quickly contribute to the growth of Bradford.

16 - NO: Sheldon Richardson, DT, Missouri
This pick is simple, the Saints need defensive players.

17 - DAL: Jonathan Jenkins, DT, Georgia

18 - CIN: Justin Hunter, WR, Tennessee
Let's face it Jermaine Gresham is overrated. The Bengals are almost a complete team. AJ Green is an absolute star, Andy Dalton gets better every game, their defense is very good. The Bengals are missing another star receiver to complete the picture that is why this pick is smart.

19 - TB: Johnthan Banks, CB, Mississippi State

20 - MIN: Terrance Williams, WR, Baylor
I know this is high for Williams, but the Vikings need another wide receiver due to the continuous injuries of Percy Harvin.

21 - PIT: Alec Ogletree, ILB, Georgia

22 - SEA: Eric Fisher, OT, Central Michigan
More protection to help Russell Wilson grow.

23 - IND: Ezekiel Ansah, DE, BYU
Not only do the Colts need more defense, but this last name adds to the team with the best last names in football. Angerer, Fokou, Luck, Powers, etc. All they need is the Ansah.

24 - NYG: Cornellius Carradine, DE, Florida State
With Ezekiel Ansah off the list this pick makes sense.

25 - GB: Tyler Eifert, TE, Notre Dame
With what is the overrated player known as Jermichael Finley, the Packers will make a smart selection and draft Eifert. The need for a tremendous blocking, pass catching, leader is huge. Eifert will be selected her and will make a huge impact.

26 - DEN: Kenny Vaccaro, SS, Texas

27 - CHI: Jonathan Cooper, OG, North Carolina
Cutler needs protection. End of discussion.

28 - NE: Kawann Short, DT, Purdue
New England's defense needs improvement. Short will help.

29 - SF: Robert Woods, WR, USC
Hurt by Lane Kiffin's "Brilliant" coaching, Woods will be the sleeper of the draft. San Francisco will need another receiver as Randy Moss will most likely not be returning. Woods should help the Kapernick, Smith dilemma by producing touchdowns.

30 - BAL: C.J. Mosley, OLB, Alabama
In what is most likely the final season of the Ray Lewis era, the Ravens will need someone to fill the spot. C.J. Mosley will be the selection.

31 - HOU: Matt Elam, SS, Florida

32 - ATL: Barrett Jones, OG, Alabama
