The Red Zone Report 2010 NFL Mock Draft 1.0: Round One

In the wake of the Tennessee Titans horrible 59-0 defeat to the New England Patriots, as well as their fellow bottom feeding friends, Tampa Bay and St. Louis going 0-6, it's time to take a look to the future .

Whether you're rooting for a team that's still undefeated and will likely have a late pick in the first round, or you're a bag-head still cheering in hiding for teams like the Washington Redskins, Oakland Raiders, and the said 0-6 squads, it's never too early for a mock draft .

Here's round one for The Red Zone Report's 2010 NFL Mock Draft 1.0:

(Draft created on October 22nd before Week Seven)

Side note: Carolina Panthers and Chicago Bears do not own a 2010 first round pick.

1. Tennessee Titans —Colt McCoy, QB, Texas

If the Titans are still here when the season ends, it's a safe bet Vince Young didn't work out and they'll be going in a different direction. McCoy may not have ideal arm strength, but he has good size, excellent college production, and is extremely athletic.

They could use a new Albert Haynesworth or some secondary help, but the teams who pick here are usually here for a reason: they need a face for their franchise.

Will the second crack at a Texas product be the charm?

2. St. Louis Rams —Jake Locker, QB, Washington

The Rams could go after several needs at defense, could go for a "sure thing" on their offensive line, or even attack their average receiving corps.

But, like Tennessee, a lot of their problems start with a comatose passing attack, and while Marc Bulger is decent at times, he's older now and can't avoid the rush very well.

Locker, on the other hand, is extremely fast and athletic, and has all the tools to develop into a fine signal caller. Sam Bradford will definitely be considered here if he enters as well, but his durability may be too much of a question mark.

3. Tampa Bay Buccaneers —Carlos Dunlap, DE, Florida

The Buccaneers just cut ties with a former first round defensive end, Gaines Adams, and shipped the disappointment over to Chicago.

Dare they try getting a stud defensive end in the first round, yet again?

When they're built and run like Dunlap, you kind of have to. Besides, Adams' failure had more to do with his attitude and work ethic, according to Head Coach Raheem Morris.

The Buccaneers have their quarterback of the future , so it's likely they stick to addressing their pathetic defense with this draft. If Dunlap isn't around, Oklahoma's Gerald McCoy would be a satisfactory option.

4. Kansas City Chiefs —Dez Bryant, WR, Oklahoma State

Todd Haley is an offensive guru and he's running the show, so take a wild guess which direction this front office is heading in.

They brought Matt Cassel over from New England for a reason, and it wasn't so they could watch him struggle with mediocre weapons. Bryant could pair up with Dwayne Bowe from the get-go and give Cassel two elite targets.

Bryant is likely to be here if this is where the Chiefs pick, so the only other route KC could go is possibly addressing their offensive line or nabbing a stud corner.

5. Detroit Lions —Gerald McCoy, DT, Oklahoma

Jim Schwartz isn't Matt Millen. He won't reach for receivers when he's already got one of the best in the game, and regardless of your opinion on Matthew Stafford, the Lions have quite a solid talent under center.

The next step is to add depth and star power to the inside of their weak defensive front, and McCoy can do more than just beef it up a bit. Schwartz will build him up and create his own mini-Albert Haynesworth, even if it takes a year or two to do so.

Detroit could also look for an elite pass rusher or some secondary help, but McCoy should be the best value at this pick.

6. Cleveland Browns —Jimmy Clausen, QB, Notre Dame

Out with one Fighting Irish, and in with the other. Eric Mangini can't honestly expect to keep his job past 2009 unless he agrees with management that they need to go in a different direction at quarterback.

Brady Quinn and Derek Anderson just can't cut it in Cleveland, so the extremely talented and confident Clausen will get Mangini's vote.

It also wouldn't be shocking to see Mangini add some offensive firepower at the running back or receiver position. However, that will depend completely on how well or poorly Derek Anderson plays down the stretch.

7. Oakland Raiders —Eric Berry, S, Tennessee

Al Davis loves speed, and he needs a new safety that plays with confidence and control. Michael Huff still might work out, but he at least needs some competition to push his level of play up.

Berry is extremely athletic and versatile, so if the Raiders like where Huff is at, they'll still be able to use Berry is a number of ways.

Much of what Oakland does with this pick will depend on who their coach is and who they release before the draft. If the end of the road has come for JaMarcus Russell, I wouldn't be surprised to see Davis trade up to get Sam Bradford or Jake Locker.

8. Seattle Seahawks —Jahvid Best, RB, California

I just don't see the Seahawks riding into 2010 with Julius Jones and/or Edgerrin James again, especially since they've had struggles running the ball.  While Justin Forsett is a special back, he's not an every-down guy, and doesn't have the explosiveness that Best possesses.

Jim Mora Jr. likes defense, so a strong lineman is possible here, while there's also a good chance they could opt to protect Matt Hasselbeck a little more with the best tackle available.

Speaking of Hasselbeck, it'd probably be fairly tempting for Seattle to turn down an elite quarterback prospect at this pick, possibly Sam Bradford if he falls this far.

Ultimately, Hasselbeck still can play, and Mora will opt to simply either get him some new weapons, or get some blocking help.

9. Buffalo Bills —Russell Okung, OT, Oklahoma State

Considering the Bills will almost surely part ways with head coach Dick Jauron, what they do next will depend largely on their new coach's philosophy.

As far as team needs, running back is the only spot where Buffalo couldn't use some help. And since they know they can run the ball if they have solid blocking, it'd probably be a wise investment to get someone to help keep the quarterback (whoever that ends up being) on his feet, while aiding their only offensive strength-the running game.

10. Washington Redskins —Sam Bradford, QB, Oklahoma

Somehow, someway, the Redskins have their guy fall right into their lap. They flirted with trading for Jay Cutler and/or drafting Mark Sanchez in the offseason, and now they're just about certain they need an upgrade at the quarterback position.

Bradford has all the talent of the quarterback taken ahead of them, and in some cases even more, but his 2009 injuries will hurt his stock enough that he takes a Matt Leinart-type slide to the 10th pick.

11. San Francisco 49ers (From Carolina) —Ndamukong Suh, DT, Nebraska

They have their running back, receiver and tight end of the future. Now the only question is, do they like who they're planning to start at quarterback in 2010, or do they make something happen and land an elite quarterback prospect?

Some thought they would think about pulling the trigger on Mark Sanchez last year, but they didn't, so knowing Mike Singletary, he'll continue to build his team on both sides of the ball through the trenches.

Suh a massive and powerful inside presence, something the 49ers are lacking a bit. He could start immediately.

12. Miami Dolphins —Terrence Cody, DT, Alabama

Miami is a run-first team that likes to switch things up a bit on offense, and while Bill Parcells doesn't like drafting wide receivers in the first round, I have a strange feeling he just might break that rule.

Then again, the way Ted Ginn Jr. is coming along so slowly, it may keep him from pulling the trigger.

Cody, on the other hand, fills a glaring need, as he injects some youth and great strength to the middle of their average defensive line. The Dolphins are among the league's best at running the ball, and with Cody they can one day be among the best at stopping it.

13. San Diego Chargers —Trent Williams, OT, Oklahoma

The Chargers could really opt for a number of different positions, as they could use some youth and talent at receiver, but could also use some help on both the offensive and defensive line.

Adding a talented running back may be an option as well if Darren Sproles jets off in the offseason.

However, with no clear-cut way to go at this spot, they may just take Williams to beef up their pass protection to be sure that Phillip Rivers will stay on his feet.

14. New York Jets —Arrelious Benn, WR, Illinois

Braylon Edwards will likely test the market if he ends the season on a high enough note, while Rex Ryan will cave to Mark Sancez's pleas that he needs more help at receiver.

They're very solid on both sides of the ball, but adding a big, athletic target like Benn would help the offense stretch the field. Adding a replacement for the possibly finished Kris Jenkins is a possibility, too.

15. Houston Texans —C.J. Spiller, RB, Clemson

It's not that Houston doesn't want to give Steve Slaton the ball, but early season struggles showed that defenses can key-in on him fairly easily, and his small stature can't keep taking that punishment.

Spiller is excellent depth and gives the Texans a complete offense, as he can affect games in a number of ways.

16. Baltimore Ravens —Brandon Spikes, OLB, Florida

Spikes has great speed and solid athleticism for the position, and also happens to be a great leader for Florida. The future Ray Lewis?

Spikes could very well be long gone by pick 16, but if he's still here, John Harbaugh won't pass him up.

17. Jacksonville Jaguars —Tim Tebow, QB, Florida

Jacksonville said they'd grab him in the first round if he was available, and he likely will be at this pick. With several games blacked-out already this year, the Jaguars need to step it up in ticket sales and lure people in Florida to come to their games.

Tebow may be a project , but he's athletic and can do damage on the ground, making him not too much worse than their current inconsistent quarterback, David Garrard.

At the very worst, Tebow would bring an interesting version of the Wildcat to life in Jacksonville.

18. Denver Broncos (From Chicago) —Jevean Snead, QB, Ole Miss

Call me crazy, but I don't think Josh McDaniels will pick the veteran Kyle Orton over a top prospect that is oozing with potential.

If Orton can thrive in McDaniels's system, it's a safe bet just about anyone can. McDaniels wasn't able to land Matt Cassel when he wanted him back in the 2009 offseason, and now he gets his first crack at his own franchise quarterback.

19. Arizona Cardinals —Ciron Black, OT, LSU

Black is a massive offensive lineman who excels in pass-blocking, so regardless of who is behind center for the Cardinals, they won't have to worry about changing their offense.

You can never have too many effective pass-blockers, especially when you thrive off of the pass, so Black is a perfect fit here.

20. Philadelphia Eagles —Taylor Mays, S, USC

The Eagles need to find their replacement for Brian Dawkins, while injecting some life into their last line of attack in their secondary.

Mays is a very athletic and physical safety, and has the ability to play multiple positions. He could easily be gone by now in this draft, but with so many teams attacking glaring needs, he could drop this far.
