Khang's Mock Draft
I fill out a mock draft like an NCAA bracket. I just start filling out what I think will happen not what should happen and at the end I'm a little shocked at what I've done. Just like an NCAA bracket no mock draft is perfect.
The NFL draft is even harder to predict because of trades and this year there will most definitely be trades. But like in the NCAA tournament there's always an unpredictable wild card. In the NCAA they're called Cinderella's. In
the NFL they're called the Oakland Raiders. You can't predict what they're going to do you just let them entertain you. Sadly this year the Raiders do not have a 1st round pick. Oh well here it goes anyway...
1. Carolina Panthers - Cam Newton, QB Auburn
2. Denver Broncos - Marcell Dareus, DT Alabama
3. Buffalo Bills - Von Miller, DE/OLB Texas A&M
4. Cincinnati Bengals - A.J. Green, WR Georgia
5. Arizona Cardinals - Patrick Peterson, DB LSU
6. Cleveland Browns - Robert Quinn, DE North Carolina
7. San Francisco - Blaine Gabbert, QB Missouri
8. Tennessee Titans - Nick Fairley, DT Auburn
9. Dallas Cowboys - Tyron Smith, OT USc
10. Washington Redskins - Julio Jones, WR Alabama
11. Houston Texans - Prince Amukamara, DB Nebraska
12. Mionnesota Vikings - Cameron Jordan, DE California
13. Detroit Lions - Da'Qaun Bowers, DE Clemson
I don't think Amukamara falls to them at 13 and Bowers maybe too talented and have too much of an upside to pass on even with the knee concerns. Also if Tyron Smith is somehow available don't be surprised if the Lions take him.
Mayhew has shown us he loves taking the best player at their position.

15. Miami Dolphins - Mike Pouncey, OL Florida
16. Jacksonville Jaguars - Ryan Kerrigan, DE Purdue
17. New England Patriots (via Oakland) - Gabe Carimi, OT Wisconsin

19. New York Giants - Anthony Castonzo, OT Boston College
20. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Aldon Smith, DE Missouri
