This will be the last mock draft I'll do before my final "draft" which I'll probably mock up a day or two before the draft. With this one I starting mocking the first two rounds instead of just the first round.

FIRST ROUND

1. DETROIT LIONS - OT EUGENE MONROE, VIRGINIA: Gotta fix the interior before you address the skill positions. They'll still have an opportunity at 20 to get a QB. Plus, the have some guys to look at in the 2nd and 3rd. Also, next year they'll have McCoy and Bradford coming out in the draft

2. ST. LOUIS RAMS - OT JASON SMITH, BAYLOR: They just released Orlando Pace and they'll need to find his replacement.

3. KANSAS CITY CHIEFS - OLB AARON CURRY, WAKE FOREST: This as close to a sure thing as there is in this draft. The hope is that Curry will help the pass rush, run defense, and pass defense.

4. SEATTLE SEAHAWKS - DT B.J. RAJI, BOSTON COLLEGE: They let Rocky Bernard get away and their run defense was bad enough with him on the team. They have to find a good DT in this draft an Raji is a good one.

5. CLEVELAND BROWNS - DE/OLB BRIAN ORAKPO, TEXAS: With Willie McGinest half way out the door, Mangini will need his 3-4 rush LB.

6. CINCINNATI BENGALS - WR MICHAEL CRABTREE, TEXAS TECH: They probably have a bigger need at OT, but Crabtree may be a once in a decade type player. He'll do fine filling T.J. Houshmandzadeh's shoes.

7. OAKLAND RAIDERS - OL ANDRE SMITH, ALABAMA: Al Davis loves controversial players and coach Tom Cable is a former OL coach. makes too much sense.

8. JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS - OT MICHAEL OHER, OLE MISS: Gotta beef up the O-line.

9. GREEN BAY PACKERS - RB KNOWSHON MORENO, GEORGIA: Maybe a surprise, but GB's offense lacks explosiveness and Aaron Rodgers' will need some weapons to develop as a QB in the NFL. Do they have bigger needs? yes. But they take value over need as they should.

10. SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS - CB/FS MALCOLM JENKINS, OHIO STATE: I always thought they would look for QB here, if they could, but with the restructuring of Alex Smith's contract and some of the talk I hear out of SF, I'm thinkin they give Smith and Shaun Hill one more season to prove what they have.

11. BUFFALO BILLS - QB MATTHEW STAFFORD, GEORGIA: J.P. Losman is all but gone and who knows how Trent Edwards will play this season.

12. DENVER BRONCOS - CB VONTAE DAVIS, ILLINOIS: They let Dre Bly go and they really didn't have much depth in the secondary when Bly was there.

13. WASHINGTON REDSKINS - DE EVERETTE BROWN, FLORIDA STATE: Brian Cushing is also worth a look with this pick. Assuming Orakpo and the four top OTs are gone, it would be between Brown and Cushing. Or a trade down.

14. NEW ORLEANS SAINTS - OLB BRIAN CUSHING, USC: A new DC, re-signed Jonathan Vilma, brought in Jabari Greer...it's obvious where the focus is this offseason: Defense.

15. HOUSTON TEXANS - WR JEREMY MACLIN, MISSOURI: Yet another weapon for Matt Schaub and that Texan offense. If Shaub can't get it done with Steve Slaton, Andre Johnson, Maclin, Owen Daniels, and Kevin Walter then the Texans will finally know he's not the guy.

16. SAN DIEGO CHARGERS - DE TYSON JACKSON, LSU: They let Igor Olshansky leave and I can't think of any better rplacement for him than Mr. Jackson.

17. NEW YORK JETS - QB MARK SANCHEZ, USC: They passed on Matt Leinart a couple years ago, now another SC QB falls right into their lap.

18. CHICAGO BEARS - WR HAKEEM NICKS, UNC: They need a WR with reliable hands who runs good routes and that is Hakeem Nicks. Heyward-Bey may be the favorite, but Nicks fits this team way better.

19. TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS - DT PERIA JERRY, OLE MISS: Tampa's run defense was beyond horrible at the end of last season. With Michael Turner, Jonathan Stewart, Deangelo Williams, and Reggie Bush in their division, it's an absolute must that their run defense be top notch.

20. DETROIT LIONS(from Cowboys) - LB REY MAUALUGA, USC: Greg Schwartz would love nothing more than to get a guy like Rey to run his defense.

21. PHILADELPHIA EAGLES - WR DARRIUS HEYWARD-BEY, MARYLAND: Gotta give Donovan McNabb some weapons.

22. MINNESOTA VIKINGS - WR KENNY BRITT, RUTGERS: They have their deep threat, now here's their red zone target.

23. NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS - DE/OLB AARON MAYBIN, PENN ST: A 3-4 rush LB that Belichick will have fun with.  

24. ATLANTA FALCONS - DE MICHAEL JOHNSON, GEORGIA TECH: An instant fan favorite at a position thry need. The guy is athletically a top 10 pick, but there are some concerns. He had an amazing pro day and combine.

25. MIAMI DOLPHINS - LB JAMES LAURINAITIS, OHIO STATE: Sure, not the best combine workout ever, but this guy fits the Parcells profile. I think he can play multiple positions in the 3-4, eventually.

26. BALTIMORE RAVENS - WR PERCY HARVIN, FLORIDA: They would have a hard time passing on this kind of talent if he falls to 26.

27. INDIANAPOLIS COLTS - DT EVANDER HOOD, MISSOURI: Gotta get some bulk in the middle of the defense.

28. PHILADELPHIA EAGLES(from Carolina) - TE BRANDON PETTIGREW, OKLAHOMA ST: Eben Britton and Chris "Beanie" Wells are a possiblity here too, but there are guys like those two that they can draft later. Such as OTs Okung and Beatty and RBs P.J. Hill, Shonn Greene, and Rashad Jennings.

29. NEW YORK GIANTS - CB DARIUS BUTLER, UCONN: Can never have enough depth in the secondary and with all the first round WR's off the board, this may be the best guy available.

30. TENNESSEE TITANS - LB CLAY MATTHEWS, USC: His uncle is a Titans hall of famer and they have a need at LB. Jeff Fisher has a lot of flexibility with this pick though. Could take a lot of things here.

31. ARIZONA CARDINALS - DE ROBERT AYERS, TENNESSEE: Bertrand Berry is likely gone and Antonio Smith is gone. So that leaves them with Calais Campbell and Travis LaBoy. Ayers would be a great fit in that defense.

32. PITTSBURGH STEELERS - CB ALPHONSO SMITH, WAKE FOREST: Bryant McFadden is in Arizona now, so they are left with William Gay and old man Deshea Townsend. It's a must that get a CB who can start in this league.
