2009 NFL Day One Mock Draft

This is the absolute dream scenario for the Jaguars. They get their franchise receiver.

1. Packers: NT B.J. Raji, Boston College

Green Bay needs a true nose tackle and Raji can immediately come in and start in their new 3-4 defense.

1. 49ers: OT Michael Oher, Mississippi **

The 49ers will look to move out. If not, they will draft some protection for whoever is under center next year.

We’ve seen Singletary battle character issues, so it’s doubtful they would take Andre Smith.

1. Bills: OT Andre Smith, Alabama

Trading Jason Peters leaves a huge hole at left tackle. Smith has top five talent and the Bills can’t afford to let him slide by.

1. Broncos: DE Tyson Jackson, LSU

The Broncos need someone to get after the passer and need defensive ends.

1. Redskins: DE/OLB Aaron Maybin, Penn State **

It seems more and more unlikely the Redskins will actually be picking for themselves at this pick. Until something becomes official, I’ll presume they do.

There isn’t any realistic “wow” pick here, so the Redskins will continue to plug pieces into their very expensive defense.

1. Saints: RB Chris “Beanie” Wells, Ohio State

Reggie Bush isn’t an every down back. Deuce McAllister is gone and Wells has a similar style.

There will be a heated debate in the Saints war room between Wells and Malcolm Jenkins. In the end, there’s a better chance of finding a talented corner later in the draft then a back in the McAllister mold who can play effectively right away.

1. Texans: FS/CB Malcolm Jenkins, Ohio State

The Texans need major help at safety and could use a corner to play in some nickel and dime coverage. Jenkins fills that void.

1. Chargers: DE Robert Ayers, Tennessee **

The Chargers lost some pieces of their defensive line and need to draft some replacements.

1. Jets: TE Brandon Pettigrew, Oklahoma State **

Head Coach Rex Ryan is bringing the Ravens philosophy to the Jets. On offense that means a conservative approach with a lot of safe passes and two and even three tight end sets.

The only tight end the Jets have at the moment is Dustin Keller. He can’t block at all. Rex Ryan needs a tight end who can run block effectively.
