1. Cleveland Browns- Jimmy Clausen, QB, Notre Dame
Clausen is an excellent QB that plays in a pro-style offense and leads effectively. He has great arm strength and accuracy. The Browns will go nowhere with Brady Quinn or Derek Anderson at QB. Quinn is obviously a bust, and Anderson's one good year was a fluke.
2. Tampa Bay Buccaneers- Ndamukong Suh, DT, Nebraska
The Buccaneers finally won a game this season, but their defensive line had nothing to be proud of because the Packers have the worst offensive line in the NFL. The Bucs need to rebuild their defense and they have expressed interest in Suh. Suh is a very explosive lineman and and has all-around skill and can play multiple schemes.
3. Detroit Lions- Russell Okung, OT, Oklahoma State
The Lions have a horrible offensive line, and Stafford will continue to get beat up until they fix their problem. Gosder Cherilus is a solid tackle, but he needs another solid tackle across from him, and Okung is a four-year starter and has the potential to be a Pro Bowl tackle.
4. St. Louis Rams- Jake Locker, QB, Washington
Marc Bulger is way past his prime, and the Rams need to get a new QB. Jimmy Clausen is taken, so Locker is the second option. Sam Bradford's stock is going down now ever since he got injured at Oklahoma this season.
5. Kansas City Chiefs- Eric Berry, S, Tennessee
The Chiefs are a mess, and they need to get some defense and an offensive line. With Okung off the board, Berry is first on the radar. He is the best defensive player in the 2010 draft class, and the Chiefs need to fix their secondary.
6. Oakland Raiders- Carlos Dunlap, DE, Florida
Al Davis is a very incompetent owner, and he always picks players based on their 40 times rather than positional needs. He drafted Darrius Heyward-Bey last year and Darren McFadden the year before. Dunlap runs a 4.7, and the Raiders could use help at defensive line. Dunlap, however, is very lazy and is having an unproductive junior year at Florida.
7. Washington Redskins- Tim Tebow, QB, Florida
Daniel Snyder loves drafting big-name players, and Jason Campbell is not the answer at QB. There are rumors that Jon Gruden will become the Redskins' head coach, and he has openly expressed interest in Tebow.
8. Tennessee Titans- Sam Bradford, QB, Oklahoma
Vince Young has been doing well since he replaced Kerry Collins, but he will need to convince the Titans' management that he is the long-term answer, or they will draft a QB. Bradford has concerns surrounding him about his injury history and his ability to play in a pro-style offense.
9. Buffalo Bills- Gerald McCoy, DT, Oklahoma
McCoy would be a perfect pick here because the Bills need help at defensive line very badly. McCoy is elite, and he is a great pass rusher. He has even been compared to Kevin Williams.
10. Miami Dolphins- Rolando McClain, LB, Alabama
The Dolphins need to get an inside linebacker, and McClain is available, so he fits perfectly here.
11. San Francisco 49ers- Taylor Mays, S, USC
Mays is a really hard hitter, and the 49ers need help in the secondary. However, Mays has poor instincts that could hold him back.
12. San Francisco 49ers (from Carolina)- Bryan Bulaga, T, Iowa
The 49ers need to improve their offensive line, and Pashos and Snyder have allowed many sacks. Bulaga would be a big upgrade.
13. Seattle Seahawks- Bruce Campbell, T, Maryland
Walter Jones is way past his prime, and he is too injury-prone and old at age 37. He was recently placed on IR.
14. Jacksonville Jaguars- Greg Hardy, DE, Ole Miss
