4/4 Mock Draft! Current Thoughts

By
Updated: April 4, 2011

This is not final, but this is my current nfl mock draft for the time being.  On or before the 25th my final mock will be posted for all to ridicule!

On to the mockness monster…

 

1

Bills

Newton, Cam

QB from Auburn

The Panthers are being incredibly mum, but as of now I believe the pick will be Cam Newton. I just cannot bring myself to put anyone else at the top of this draft. I believe that 48 hours before the draft the Buddy Nix realizes he cannot leave this draft without a face of his team. After losing Tebow to the diabolical Josh McDaniels Nix will not be denied and makes Carolina an offer they cannot refuse.

2

Bengals

Green, AJ

WR from Georgia

Knowing that Carolina is one spot ahead of them and that the Broncos are actively looking to move down, the Bengals move up with Denver and grab AJ Green. Its a selection for the future, but a good one indeed.

3

Panthers

Dareus, Marcel

DE from Alabama

The guy Carolina wanted all along falls right into their laps.

4

Broncos

Bowers, DaQuan

DE from Clemson

Bowers knee may have a red flag, but he played on it all last year and got 16 sacks. Fox drafted Julius Peppers, and knows what Julius did in his prime. Thats right, lead that defense to a Super Bowl run.

5

Vikings

Gabbert, Blaine

QB from Missouri

The Vikings do not want to wait to try to trade for a QB after the CBA is done and grab their guy here. The Cardinals are set on acquiring a veteran and keeping Skelton in the mix. They set their eyes on defense.

6

Browns

Quinn, Robert

DE from North Carolina

The Browns need a pass rusher, and one bad. On offense the Hillis show will be good enough to carry them, no need to panic for a WR if one isn’t a good value.

7

49ers

Peterson, Patrick

CB from LSU

SF stands Pat, and drafts Pat.

8

Titans

Fairley, Nick

DT from Auburn

Fairley slips due to character concerns, but this team is still missing Haynesworth and will do anything to get a force in the middle.

9

Rams

Jones, Julio

WR from Alabama

The Rams trade up, nervous that the Skins will take their guy.

10

Redskins

Watt, JJ

DE from Wisconsin

First shocker of the draft! Shanny grabs a productive DE in Watt, but trust he plans to run the gambit with offensive players.

11

Texans

Miller, Von

OLB from Texas AM

Is DE Conner Barwin the answer to the Texans sack woes? Von Miller may be.

12

Cardinals

Smith, Aldon

DE from Missouri

The Cards trade down, and get a guy they may have been too nervous to take a little earlier.

13

Lions

Amukamara, Prince

CB from Nebraska

Alphonso Smith does a great Carlton Banks dance, but is a he legit #1 corner?

14

Cowboys

Smith, Tyron

OT from USC

Tony Romo must be protected.

15

Dolphins

Ingram, Mark

RB from Alabama

The FIns would probably love to trade out but there are no takers at this juncture.
