Round 1 | Round 2 |
Round 1
| Pick | Team | Pos | Player | School |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Miami Dolphins | OT | Jake Long | Michigan |
| Signed,sealed,delivered and headed to double digit Pro Bowls | ||||
| 2 | St. Louis Rams | DE | Chris Long | Virginia |
| Glenn Dorsey is only a smoke screen to get the Falcons to offer a second or third rounder to move up | ||||
| 3 | Atlanta Falcons | DT | Glenn Dorsey | LSU |
| Should provide immediate help to a weak front seven | ||||
| 4 | Oakland Raiders | RB | Darren McFadden | Arkansas |
| The Raiders can trim the fat they currently have at running back on June 1 and take a franchise changing running back with this pick | ||||
| 5 | Kansas City Chiefs | G | Branden Albert | Virginia |
| Even with two first round picks the Chiefs are in a position in which they must take an offensive lineman with this pick | ||||
| 6 | New York Jets | DE | Vernon Gholston | Ohio State |
| If the Jets could land McFadden or Gholston, Radio City Music Hall would go nuts | ||||
| 7 | New England Patriots | OLB | Keith Rivers | USC |
| The Patriots are looking to add youth to an aging linebacking corps | ||||
| 8 | Baltimore Ravens | QB | Matt Ryan | Boston College |
| This is a dream scenario for the Ravens | ||||
| 9 | Cincinnati Bengals | DT | Sedrick Ellis | USC |
| If the Bengals want Ellis they may have to trade up to get him | ||||
| 10 | New Orleans Saints | CB | Leodis McKelvin | Troy |
| The Saints have spent money at corner and they have to realize it is not money well spent | ||||
| 11 | Buffalo Bills | CB | Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie | Tennessee State |
| DRC has a ton of upside and a big learning curve going from 1-AA football to the NFL | ||||
| 12 | Denver Broncos | OT | Ryan Clady | Boise State |
| Perfect fit for a team that desperately needs a franchise left tackle | ||||
| 13 | Carolina Panthers | DE | Derrick Harvey | Florida |
| This is pick that is too good to be true if your Carolina | ||||
| 14 | Chicago Bears | OT | Christopher Williams | Vanderbilt |
| The Bears will fix their offense from the inside out in this draft | ||||
| 15 | Detroit Lions | RB | Rashard Mendenhall | Illinois |
| The Lions on the other hand will continue to build from the outside in and continue to go nowhere as an organization | ||||
| 16 | Arizona Cardinals | CB | Mike Jenkins | USF |
| The Cardinals have major holes in the secondary and Jenkins should contribute immediately | ||||
|
| ||||
| 17 | Kansas City Chiefs | OT | Jeffrey Otah | Pittsburgh |
| Why stop with Branden Albert, fix the right side of the offensive line with Otah. | ||||
| 18 | Houston Texans | RB | Jonathan Stewart | Oregon |
| With the top offensive lineman and corners off the board the Texas decide to fix their below average running game. A bit of a gamble with the toe injury | ||||
| 19 | Philadelphia Eagles | WR | Limas Sweed | Texas |
| I sense this Eagles team is serious about getting wide receiver help early in this draft | ||||
| 20 | Tampa Bay Buccaneers | DE | Phillip Merling | Clemson |
| The Bucs tried to get Jared Allen, so that tells me they are looking for an upgrade at defensive end | ||||
| 21 | Washington Redskins | DT | Trevor Laws | Notre Dame |
| The Redskins have issues with age on the defensive line and won't be disappointed when they get the most underrated player in the draft | ||||
| 22 | Dallas Cowboys | RB | Felix Jones | Arkansas |
| Felix Jones is a pefect home run hitter to complement Marion Barber | ||||
| 23 | Pittsburgh Steelers | DT | Kentwan Balmer | North Carolina |
| The Steelers are loaded at linebacker but could use some help on the defensive line in their 3-4 scheme | ||||
| 24 | Tennessee Titans | WR | Desean Jackson | California |
| Vince Young needs an impact wide receiver and Desean Jackson is a big play threat | ||||
| 25 | Seattle Seahawks | S | Tyrell Johnson | Arkansas State |
| The Seahawks can go a number of directions but a hard hitting safety would upgrade this defense | ||||
| 26 | Jacksonville Jaguars | WR | Early Doucet | LSU |
| The Jaguars still have needs at wide receiver and are looking for a polished receiver who can play right away | ||||
| 27 | San Diego Chargers | OLB | Jerod Mayo | Tennessee |
| The inside linebackers for the Chargers are average and could use an upgrade | ||||
| 28 | Dallas Cowboys | CB | Brandon Flowers | Virginia Tech |
| Flowers is a physical corner that brings toughness to a suspect secondary | ||||
| 29 | San Francisco 49ers | DE | Quentin Groves | Auburn |
| The Niners struggle to pressure the quarterback and this pick would be a no-brainer | ||||
| 30 | Green Bay Packers | CB | Aqib Talib | Kansas |
| A perfect situation for Talib to step into | ||||
| 32 | New York Giants | S | Kenny Phillips | Miami (FL) |
| Physical safety that fits the Giants schemes perfectly | ||||
