Let's Talk About Our Drafts, Here's my mock up!

1-Browns-Myles Garrett-DE-Texas A&M  Hue Jackson will get his QB later, but Garrett is too good to pass up 

2-49ers-Jamal Adams-S-LSU  New GM John Lynch finds a cornerstone of his defense that reminds him of himself 

3-Bears-Solomon Thomas-DE-Stanford  Bears need help everywhere, would love to trade down, but deep draft makes it tough to find a partner

4-Jaguars-Leonard Fournette-RB-LSU  Last year they built the defense up, this year it's a big back to put Coughlin stamp on the organization 

5-Titans-OJ Howard-TE-Alabama  Add a weapon for Mariota while adding to a great young offensive line.

6Browns (Trade with Jets)- Malik Hooker-S-Ohio St.  Browns needed to get in front of the Chargers to get the play making safety that compliments Garrett. Trade details: Jets get 12, 33, 142, 144. Browns get 6, 107

7-Chargers-Marshon Lattimore-CB-Ohio St.  They preferred to get a safety, but are happy with the best cornerback in the draft

8-Panthers-Rueben Foster-LB-Alabama  Red flags aren't enough to deter the Panthers from giving Luke Kuechly a running mate that could make them the best LB group in the league

9-Bengals-Jonathan Allen-DE-Alabama  Bengals fill the pass rush need, add depth to a group that has dealt with injuries

10-Bills-Gareon Conley-CB-Ohio St.  There was a time when the Bills drafted OSU DB every year (Winfield, Clements, Whitner) this time they get a guy who fills a need, and gets McDermott closer to the secondary he needs. (This also a clear indication of who is really making pick, as Whaley would have gone with Watson here)

11-Saints-Haasan Reddick-LB-Temple  Great athlete who dominated at a lower level. Will be very good at the highest level

12-Jets-Mitchell Trubisky-QB-North Carolina. They trade down and get the player they wanted at 6. Plus, Jets drafting a QB is an annual event like any other holiday

13-Cardinals-Patrick Mahomes-QB-Texas Tech. The QB run has begun, Cards get Palmer's successor. Mahomes has elite arm talent, needs time to develop

14-Eagles-Mike Williams-WR-Clemson  big red zone target for Wentz, very happy to get best WR in draft here

15-Colts-Christian McCaffery-RB-Stanford  The Stanford QB, Luck, Gets a weapon that compliments Frank Gore

16-Ravens-Delvin Cook-RB-Florida St.  Ozzie Newsome gets a 3 down back to fill huge need. Cook may be best back in the draft, but red flags drop him here

17-Redskins-Derek Barnett-DE-Tennessee  An immediate starter opposite Ryan Kerrigan

18-Titans-Corey Davis-WR-Western Michigan Suddenly, the Titans offense has weapons. Mariota finally getting people to play with

19-Bucs-Cam Robinson-OT-Alabama  Winston gets his blind side protector and the best Offensive lineman in the draft

20-Broncos-Ryan Ramczyk-OT-Wisconsin  QB still a question mark, but regardless of QB, need to improve the line, and this pick does that
21-Lions-Taco Charlton-DE-Michigan  A popular pick with the fans, a very popular pick for DC Teryl Austin
22-Dolphins-Forrest Lamp-OG-Western Kentucky  Last year #1 Leremy Tunsil moves out to tackle, makes Ajaii and Tannyhill better

23-Giants-Garrett Boles-OT-Utah  Need to improve the running game, this pick not only does that but gives Eli a solid protector 

24-Raiders-Jarrad Davis-LB-Florida  Khalil Mack is great, but can't do it alone

25-Texans-DeShone Kizer-QB-Notre Dame  No Romo hurts, but Kizer is a project with huge upside

26-Seahawks-Marlon Humphrey-CB-Alabama  Sherman replacement will be better if Earl Thomas returns at full strength

27-Chiefs-DeShaun Watson-QB-Clemson  Alex Smith is on notice, Andy Reid will develop Watson nicely

28-Cowboys-Obi Melifwanu-S-UCONN  Boys found a gem at UCONN with Byron Jones, now they have a pair of Huskies at safety

29-Packers-Joe Mixon-RB-Oklahoma  By now everybody has seen the tape, Mixon will be protested, but if he stays out of trouble, his Lambeau leaps will be celebrated often

30-Steelers-Jabril Peppers-S/LB-MichiganThink Troy Polumalu, but not as fast. Best position is football player

31-Falcons-Jordan Lewis-CB-Michigan  Solid pick that fills a need, could have used him in Super Bowl

32-Saints-TreDarius White-CB-LSU  Great value here, a second day 1 starter that improves a defense that is holding this team back
