Isaac's Mock Draft (Round 1)

1 - KC: Geno Smith, QB, West Virginia
The Chiefs' problem is they need a quarterback who can make precision passes. Throwing for 98 touchdowns in 4 years, Smith is evidently one of the top passers in Big 12 history. The Chiefs would be missing out if they didn't select this QB.

2 - JAX: Manti Te'o, ILB, Notre Dame
Jacksonville needs a defender who can rush the pass, as most of the touchdowns scored against the Jags this season were through the air. Te'o can not only rush the QB, but he can also make an interception when he needs to. The Fighting Irish's loss to Alabama shouldn't affect his draft position much.

3 - OAK: Luke Joeckel, OT, Texas A&M
The Raiders can select a QB to replace Carson Palmer in Round 2 or 3. Their main issue is finding an offensive line that can protect the QB. Palmer was sacked 26 times in the regular season. While they will most likely cut Palmer, Joeckel will make a valuable addition to the line.

4 - PHI: Bjoern Werner, DE, Florida State
The Eagles are like Jacksonville: they need a man who can rush the passing game. With Te'o gone, Philly's next best pick is Werner. Racking up 14 sacks on the season, 4 in their season opener, this DE will exponentially improve the Eagles' defensive stats.

5 - DET: Chance Warmack, OG, Alabama
Matthew Stafford is a great quarterback, and although he's thrown his share of picks, it's not his fault. Most of the defenses the Lions play are excellent on the pass rush, and he just has to make some bad throws. Enter Chance Warmack. The 2nd offensive lineman in the draft (only to Joeckel), Warmack was one of the keys to a 'Bama victory in the championship game. A great protector in the pocket, Stafford and Warmack will make a great offensive pairing.

6 - CLE: Jarvis Jones, OLB, Georgia
Cleveland has problems when their opponent takes off on the ground. Jarvis Jones can hold RBs to only a few yards per carry, and even pressure the quarterback. In the Capital One Bowl vs Nebraska, Jones registered 8 tackles (5 solo) and 2 sacks. Cleveland may find a new defensive captain in Jones.

7 - ARI: Matt Barkley, QB, USC
In 5 games, John Skelton threw 9 interceptions, including 4 in their 0-58 loss to Seattle. Being one of the top QBs in the draft prospectus, Barkley might have the ability to at least lead the Cards to a winning season. Throwing 116 TDs at USC, Barkley can carry an offense down the field on any drive.

8 - BUF: Damontre Moore, DE, Texas A&M
Buffalo needs a good defensive line, and they lack the defensive ends to make one. With Moore, one of the best defensive players in the draft, some opportunities could open up for the Bills. Damontre has the ability to power through the OL and make big hits on the QB, something they could use down in Buffalo.

9 - NYJ: Landry Jones, QB, Oklahoma
With Tim Tebow gone and Mark Sanchez unlikely to start next year, Landry Jones, an underdog in the draft, could come out strong in the Meadowlands. Leading the Sooners to a 10-2 regular season, Jones threw for over 16 grand in 4 years. He could be an asset to the Jets' offense.

10 - TEN: Barkevious Mingo, OLB, LSU
The LSU defense really stuck out over the regular season. Mingo is the first of 3 LSU players signed in the first round. With the ability to make important tackles and pressure the QB, the LSU OLB could be a valuable player to the Titans defense.

11 - SD: Star Lotulelei, DT, Utah
Projected to be one of the top players in this year's draft, Lotulelei could become an instant Star on the Chargers defense. (No pun intended). Even though the Utes were not even in a bowl game this season, he led Utah in all defensive categories except interceptions. He could really come out strong down in San Diego.

12 - MIA: Keenan Allen, WR, California
Ryan Tannehill hasn't really lived up to his expectations in Miami. However, a few good wide outs could fix that. Keenan Allen is one of the best recievers in the prospectus, and here he's drafted #1 in the WR category. Able to reach out beyond defenders to make big plays, Allen is a force to be reckoned with in the NFL.

13 - TB: Johnathan Hankins, DT, Ohio State
Sadly, the Buckeyes were not bowl eligible this season due to the merchandising scandal. Despite that, Hankins led Ohio State to a 12-0 season and one of the Big East's best defenses. Tampa Bay's problems come when the offense runs the ball. Hankins has the ability to stop the RBs behind the line. Even in a bad situation like the scandal, Johnathan never gives up hope.

14 - CAR: Eric Fisher, OT, Central Michigan
Cam Newton can make good passes, but he's super on the running game. Eric Fisher could protect Cam well and even open up some large holes for him to run through. With a height of 6' 7", Fisher would be one of the most powerful players in Charlotte.

15 - NO: Dee Milliner, CB, Alabama
New Orleans has problems when the opposing offense goes to the air, but they have good pass rushers already. A DB like Milliner could change the playing style of the Saints. Racking up a grand total 53 tackles over the regular season, including 10 in their only loss (vs Texas A&M), Milliner can make big plays whenever necessary.

16 - STL: Kenny Vaccaro, SS, Texas
Same problem with the Rams. Their linebackers can make big plays, but their safeties leave something to desire. Vaccaro made what should be a record 91 tackles over the season for the Horns, and in their loss to Kansas State, all 12 of his tackles were solo. He would be essential to any team he's drafted to.

17 - PIT: Justin Hunter, WR, Tennessee
Ben Roethlisberger, admittedly, is a good passer. He could always use a new target, and that's where Hunter comes in. Hunter scored a majority of his receptions (73) in the 2012 season, and recorded 9 TDs. May seem like a small number, but he's the highest-ranked player on the Vols.

18 - DAL: Sheldon Richardson, DT, Missouri
Dallas needs a good defensive line, as they have allowed at least 150 rushing yards per game. Richardson, at the top ranked player on the Tigers, could make a critical impact on the Cowboys' defensive strategy.

19 - NYG: Sam Montgomery, DE, LSU
The Giants let many upsets go bye, that being the reason they didn't quite make the playoffs. Sam Montgomery can make crucial plays in crucial situations. The second LSU player in the first round out of three, he's one of the best out there.

20 - CHI: Xavier Rhodes, CB, Florida State
The Bears were stunning defensively this season, but were edged out by the Vikings, taking away their playoff hopes. Xavier Rhodes has an amazing ability to make high jumps and normally comes down with the ball in his hands. Turnovers are everything on defense, and Rhodes makes that clear.

21 - CIN: Barrett Jones, OG, Alabama
Andy Dalton is a great QB in the pocket, but has been sacked a good number of times. Barrett Jones could probably go straight into Cincinnati and block as good as he did in 'Bama. He and Warmack were some of the big names in college football, and the Bengals could really use a guard like Jones.

22 - STL: Tyler Eifert, TE, Notre Dame
Sam Bradford needs someone who can always come down with the ball in his hands. Tyler Eifert was one of the big pieces in the #1 Notre Dame offense this season. Most likely the first tight end in the draft, maybe second to Zach Ertz, Eifert has good speed and long arms to pull the ball in.

23 - MIN: Dion Jordan, DE, Oregon
Minnesota had problems defensively from the start of the season, but none were apparent until their loss to Green Bay in the Wild Card. Now, knowing they need some additions to their defense, the Vikings should pick someone who can make a stop on an important play. Jordan had many of those while he was on the Ducks, and he could become one of the most famous Vikings in NFL history with a little experience.

24 - IND: Zach Ertz, TE, Stanford
With Jacob Tamme going to Denver, Andrew Luck needs a new target that can power through DBs. Who better than his old Stanford buddy Zach Ertz? Not only does he have the power to make good plays with his hands, he knows all of Luck's strategies and could burst onto the scene in Indy.

25 - SEA: Alex Okafor, DE, Texas
Some big names for the Longhorns have popped up this year, from QB David Ash to this man, Alex Okafor. Seattle has struggled defensively, and after the loss to Atlanta, they may need to make some changes. Okafor was the leader in sacks on the Horns this season, and could shine in the Rainy City.

26 - GB: Ezekiel Ansah, DE, BYU
After allowing Kaepernick to get 181 yards rushing in their divisional playoff game, it was apparent that Green Bay needed to redesign their defensive line. Ezekiel Ansah has had good exposure west of the Rockies playing for the Cougars. One of the most recognized DEs Brigham Young has ever had, with the power to charge through the offensive line, Ansah is a necessity for the Packers.

27 - HOU: Jonathan Cooper, OG, North Carolina
Matt Schaub is good overall, but he's been hit many times this season. Jonathan Cooper has recieved some good exposure on the prospectus, being one of the top picks in the ACC. This year is likely one for the big guys on the O line.

28 - DEN: Ryan Nassib, QB, Syracuse
It seems to me that Peyton Manning is on his way out. And even if he decides to stay for another year, remember the brutal collarbone injury he suffered last year. It could happen again, as Peyton is almost in his 40's. Nassib could fill a spot at the QB position, whether Manning stays or leaves. You never know when you'll need a backup. Nassib threw for 26 TDs this season, topping NYJ pick Landry Jones, and threw for 9000 yds in 4 years on the Orange. Definitely a valuable player.

29 - NE: Eddie Lacy, RB, Alabama
Ridley wasn't that bad for the Pats in the postseason, but every year, Bill Belichick seems to be putting in a new RB. When Lacy announced that he would enter the draft, the only question was "Who will draft him?". Making his presence felt on the ground over the season, recording over 2400 yds after his junior year, the Patriots could add another instant classic to their roster picking Big Eddie.

30 - ATL: Lane Johnson, OT, Oklahoma
With Taylor Lewan staying in Michigan for another year (he will probably be #1 in 2014 is my guess), Lane Johnson may get a chance to shine in the draft.

31 - SF: Tavon Austin, WR, West Virginia
Colin Kaepernick became the center of hype in San Fran during his postseason success. He may be able to use another reciever, along with pros Crabtree and Moss. Tavon Austin could be a valuable addition to the Niners. Not only is he good at catching the ball, making 288 grabs for 29 TDs, but he can also sometimes double as an RB. A good asset, seeing as Frank Gore can only usually pick up a few yards per carry.

32 - BAL: Kevin Minter, ILB, LSU
Goodbye, Ray Lewis. A true sports legend. Nobody could ever replace him, but Kevin Minter may be able to fill his spot. Another good LSU player, Minter registered 140 tackles, and had two games with more than 15. One of the most efficient players in the first draft.
