WAB Mock Draft 4.0 - Final Version - 4 rounds

[wab]

I wanted to do all 7 rounds like I usually do, but I gotta be honest, I was exhausted after the 1st round.

Anyway, here is 4 round mock I put together. 1st rounds was submitted for the contest.

It's gonna be a weird draft...

4 rounds:

Round 1

1. Washington – from St. Louis (1-15): Sam Bradford, QB, Oklahoma
Don’t ask me why, but I have a weird feeling that McNabb is a one year bridge to Sam Bradford.

2. Detroit (2-14): Ndamukong Suh, DT, Nebraska
They should take a LT because Jeff Backus + Julius Peppers + Jared Allen + Clay Matthews = Matt Stafford in a closed casket.

3. Tampa Bay (3-13): Russell Okung, OT, Oklahoma State
The first screwball. The Bucs really want a defensive tackle, but know the odds of both McCoy and Suh panning out are about the same as Dewayne Robertson making the pro bowl next season

4. St. Louis – from Washington (4-12): Jimmy Clausen, QB, Notre Dame
The Rams get a high pick next year plus Albert Haynesworth and still get the QB they wanted all along.

5. Kansas City (4-12): Eric Berry, S, Tennessee
Berry is a future leader on a team without much of it.

6. Seattle (5-11): Gerald McCoy, DT, Oklahoma
They were all set to take CJ Spiller and then BAM! Gerald McCoy slaps them in the head.

7. Cleveland (5-11): Derrick Morgan, DE/LB, Georgia Tech
With Berry off the board, the Browns try and replenish the pass rush.

8. Oakland (5-11): Trent Williams, OT, Oklahoma
Things could really get weird if Clausen is gone and Oakland offers the #8 pick to Pitt for Big Ben.

9. New York Giants – from Buffalo (6-10): CJ Spiller, RB, Clemson
The prevailing feeling is that they want to move up for a ILB, but it’s really Spiller they want.

10. Jacksonville (7-9): Rolando McClain, LB, Alabama
Spiller was the target, but McClain isn’t a bad second option.

11. Philadelphia – from Denver via Chicago (7-9): Kyle Wilson, CB, Boise State
Many point to FS as the reason to trade up, but the fact of the matter is that Asante Samuel is the worst tackling CB in the NFL.

12. Dallas – from Miami (7-9): Earl Thomas, S, Texas
If they want him as bad as many people think, they are going to have to make a move up to get him.

13. San Francisco (8-8): Brian Bulaga, OT, Iowa
He’s overrated as a left tackle, but could be a pillar on the right side.

14. Houston - from Seattle via Denver (8-8): Joe Haden, CB, Florida
He’ll never get past Tennessee or San Fran, so the Texans move up to grab a Leon Hall clone.

15. Buffalo – from New York Giants (8-8): Dan Williams, DT, Tennessee
They would probably take him at 9, but why do that when they can take him 6 spots later?

16. Tennessee (8-8): Jason Pierre-Paul, DE, USF
Pierre-Paul is a freak of nature who doesn’t have a lot of experience, but could be the best pass rushing prospect in the draft.

17. San Francisco - from Carolina (8-8): Ryan Matthews, RB, Fresno State
Frank Gore is gonna be pissed, but Samurai Mike wants a two pronged running attack.

18. Pittsburgh (9-7): Mike Iupati, OG, Idaho
Iupati is a mauler who can play inside or out.

19. Atlanta (9-7): Maurkice Pouncey, OG/C, Florida
Whether it's a guard or center, the Falcons can use him to help get Michael Turner back on track.

20. Seattle – from Houston (9-7): Charles Brown, OT, USC
Pete Carroll knows him, trusts him, and can count on him at left tackle.

21. Cincinnati* (10-6): Taylor Mays, S, USC
Mays is the next Trojan to flow through the USC/Cincinnati pipeline.

22. New England* (10-6): Jermaine Gresham, TE, Oklahoma
The well has run dry for the once stacked Pats, so they could go any number of directions here.

23. Green Bay* (11-5): Anthony Davis, OT, Rutgers
He’s fat and lazy, but a hell of a football player when he wants to be.

24. Denver – from Philadelphia* (11-5): Demaryius Thomas, WR, Georgia Tech
After the trouble they had with Marshall, they opt for Little Calvin over Baby TO.

25. Baltimore* (9-7): Dez Bryant, WR, Oklahoma State
Anquan Boldin, Donte Stallworth, and now Bryant? Talk about improving a weakness.

26. Arizona* (10-6): Sean Witherspoon, LB, Missouri
He never quits talking, but his game backs up the checks his mouth writes.

27. Miami – from Dallas* (11-5): Sergio Kindle, DE/LB, Texas
They were hoping Ryan Matthews would be here, but Kindle is a guy they would have considered at 12.

28. San Diego* (13-3): Jared Odrick, DE, Penn State
This is a tough spot to pick, so they may trade out, but Odrick can play end or tackle on a line that needs both.

29. Cleveland – from New York Jets* (9-7): Tim Tebow, QB, Florida
Mike Holmgren loves the kid and he can sit for a year or two behind Jake Delhomme and learn to throw interceptions at an alarming rate.

30. Minnesota* (12-4): Colt McCoy, QB, Texas
You never know what Favre will do and the Vikings offense just happens to be tailor made for McCoy.

31. Indianapolis* (14-2): Roger Saffold, OT, Indiana
Surprisingly they pass on Graham, but LT has been a trouble spot since Tarik Glenn walked out on them.

32. Pittsburgh – from New Orleans* (13-3): Golden Tate, WR, Notre Dame
If they want him as bad as he wants them, the Steelers are going to have to squeeze back in to the bottom of the round.
