Following its release on LatestNFL, here is my Mock Draft V1
Mock Draft Version 1 of SemperFidelis
Georgia WR AJ Green : The Panthers' offensive line strengthened by the presence assured now Kalil, Gross and Jeff Otaha recovered from his injuries, a target of choice must be given to Jimmy Clausen to throw. As the new Calvin Johnson, AJ Green is a playmaker with a rare talent, Steve Smith desiring Starting this summer, Green will complement the ground game and give a multidimensional aspect of the offense the Panthers ranked last NFL season.
Da'Quan Bowers DE Clemson : Former Defensive Coordinator, Coach John Fox draft Julius Peppers with the second choice in his first year with the Panthers In 2002, he knows the importance of a good athletic not rush to get an aggressive defense. Da'Quan Bowers is a pure talent that will increase the poor only 23 sacks inflicted by the Broncos this season. With the return of Defense 4-3, Bowers and Dumervil form a duo.
Nick Fairley DT Auburn : The Bills are in great need of a top QB, but choose Newton so high as many think, would be a good too much risk. Fairley is physical and this season he's scary. Suh worse than last year drafted by the Lions, Fairley strengthen a front seven outstanding at the Bills and who really has no big star. Her attitude "dirty" will monitor closely.
Julio Jones WR Alabama : Carson Palmer said he wanted to leave this summer, rumors Announce fed up with the player facing the circus surrounding the Bengals this past few years. The owner of the Bengals will do everything to keep him and why he will probably leave from Terell Owens and Chad Ochocinco. Julio Jones is tall, very athletic he has very safe hands and it is above all very humble. Star in an Alabama offense that emphasized the ground game, he can bring his good attitude and wrestling in the balance to convince Palmer to stay in Ohio.
Von Miller DE / OLB Texas AETMIS : Von Miller will represent a unique weapon for the Defense of the cardinals who will need it. Expected in the first round for months, he has earned his place in the top 5 in the Senior Bowl and he produced a great performance. The need for the position of QB is likely to be filled with a trade or FA by Coach Whisenhunt and Miller will likely increase the 33 sacks this year inflicted by the Cardinals not rush.
CB Patrick Peterson LSU: The Browns believe in Colt McCoy and like Clausen from the Panthers, a prime target should it be offered next season. With Green and Jones already selected, no other WR deserves a 6th draft choice this year, the FA will have to address this need. If the Browns front seven also deserves a reinforcement, they will not pass on Peterson still available at the 6th choice. The duo Joe Haden (7th pick in the draft last year) / Patrick Peterson form without any doubt the best young CB duo in the NFL and should reduce the 3500 yds and 26 Tds received by the Browns through the air this season .
Blaine Gabbert QB Missouri : Free agent this summer, the first draft choice of 2005 Alex Smith undoubtedly deserves just as Ryan Leaf Tim Couch or the palm of big goals. Unable to save the 49ers, he never managed to repeat his exploits with the 49ers made the University of Utah. The second QB Troy Smith (Heisman Trophy 2006) will probably also left open this summer, Coach Harbaugh choose Gabbert, hoping to give him the keys to the franchise in San Francisco. Accustomed to Spread Offense at Mizzou, Blaine Gabbert will listen and learn especially well to succeed in the NFL and it will take a few seasons ..
Marcell Dareus DE / DT Alabama The departure of Jeff Fisher soap opera / Vince Young of Nashville will now make way for a transition period and reconstruction from the Titans. Young, drafted in the third draft choice in 2006 has never really convinced and more importantly, it has not taken advantage of the most excellent Chris Johnson. Marcell Dareus complement a D-Line that lack of weight and power (no DT over 130 kg this season ..). Defensive playmaker, his game against the run and pass rush will restore color to a Def orphan of Andrew Haynesworth for two years.
Prince Amukamara Nebraska CB: CB Terence Newman of the Cowboys star is now 33 years and his loss of speed was evident this season, his salary $ 8 million could force Jerry Jones to the cutter. Prince Amukamara is not very far from the level of Patrick Peterson and his physique and athletic ability enable him to succeed in Dallas who has cashed 3900 Yds and 33 TDs in the pass this season.
Cameron Newton QB Auburn : The Heisman Trophy Winner and NCAA champion Auburn was 2010 with Tim Tebow in this draft. His workout before a throng of journalists has created buz and its rating is rapidly escalating. Some see it as the new Michael Vick and others like Vince Young the future, handset, her interviews will probably still go to Newton's side, but still above the drafter would have a very big risk. Coach Shanahan likes mobile QB and he thought he could give relief to his offense with Donovan McNabb. Both men are failing to get on the same wavelength this season, attendance of Rex Grossman and John Beck are not supposed to reassure fans of the Skins. The "Project Newton" will take some years, but in the end, the Redskins could be more than winning.
Robert Quinn DE / OLB North Carolina : The Defensive Coordinator Wade Phillips is a great fan of Def 3-4. The position of OLB Rusher Robert Quinn What shall stand alongside the very good squad consisting of LB Brian Cushing (when his blood tests are good ..) Demeco Ryans and DE Connor Barwin replaced at OLB position, that will be more consolidated. The Texans Def has often been pointed to this season, compared to an Offense that more talented.
Cameron Jordan of California : The Vikes need a QB, but Newton and Gabbert parties, they will focus on the position of weakness during the Off-Season. Ray Edwards should leave as a free agent and Everson Griffen representing high hopes this position prefer to get noticed in the miscellaneous section on the sports page of newspapers. Less known than some others this year, Jordan is a real talent to shape somewhat, son of a former pro-bowler, he has the technology necessary to reinforce the front seven of the Vikes.
OT Tyron Smith USC: The Offensive Tackle position is an absolute necessity for the Lions, Matthew Stafford represents indeed the future of the franchise when he plays and does not hit 20 Once per game. Why his O-Line needs to better protect and enable the young QB to start in a chair. Tyron Smith possesses a very special physical and its 127 kg (muscle, Smith has very little body fat, which is very rare for an NFL OL ..) will still be complete to reach its optimum potential.
Aldon Smith DE / OLB Missouri : Smith's talent will make an additional force to strengthen a line or D-DE James Hall will soon 34. Smith is talented but can be a bit too young. It will be well supported and positioned above once and for all positions. A very good project in the long term.
Jake Locker QB Washington : The passing or I'll get flamed by my friend Verchain .. ;) Mark Ingram The temptation is very strong, but the error of casting produced with Ronnie Brown and especially the lack of competence Chad Henne to guide the franchise Jake Locker will be a very good prospect. Very decries this year, Locker nonetheless an excellent QB who can throw and run. Very interested in the arrival of the Panthers DeAngelo Williams, the Williams duo / Locker could restore color to an offense consisting of superstar Brandon Marshall.
Ryan Kerrigan, Purdue : Starter for three seasons at Purdue, Kerrigan has many times demonstrated his real talent Pass Rusher. Only authors of 3 sacks on their last 5 games this season, having drafted the ghost Tyson Alualu with the 10th pick last year, the Jaguars should strengthen a pass rush with the default choice Kerrigan and the return of pro-bowler Aaron Kampman.
OT Nate Solder Colorado: The recent sinking of Tom Brady bending under the relentless rush of the Jets in the semi final conference clearly indicates that is undoubtedly the uppermost properly protect the QB of the Patriots. Tackle Matt Light is the FA this summer and 32 years from now, the Patriots probably will not want to not put too much money on him. Nate Solder is very tall (2m06) and has a great pass protection, an OT
in tradition Pats who grow a lumberjack beard during the playoffs.
JJ Watt Wisconsin: Four Chargers Defensive End FA will this summer and not all will be re-signed. Watt bring your fighting a Defense 3 -4 which has always preferred heavy and physical (Igor Olshansky, Luis Castillo, Jacques Cesaire, Vaughn Martin ..) good against the run but also against the pass, this "blue collar" will find its place in the D Line-Chargers.
RB Mark Ingram
Alabama: Is it really necessary to explain this choice? Son of a superstar WR Giants won the Super Bowl XXV in 1991, Mark Ingram was born to be a Giant. It will strengthen a backfield that will lose most certainly Brandon Jacobs or Ahmad Bradshaw or his speed, his commitment and taste of the racket will delight fans of the New Meadowlannds Stadium.
Adrian Clayborn Iowa : Long considered a possible top 10, Clayborn has an undeniable talent, but his character, off-field reasons and Last season in the semi shade legerment have driven down its NFL ratings. Have drafted after Gerald McCoy and Brian Price during the draft last year, Bucci will be keen to strengthen a defense that had allowed them to win the SuperBowl in 2002.
Akeem Ayers OLB UCLA : Tamba Hali out of a big season (14.5 sacks leader AFC) Akeem Ayers will bring his speed and very good vision game to the second position of OLB in the 3-4 Defense Chiefs privileging the speed of its LBs.
Anthony Castonzo OT Boston College : Peyton Manning has been very often pressed by opposing defenses this season, which prompted him to throw 17 interceptions, it pretty unusual for him. The officers of the Oline Colts are aging (35 years Jeff Saturday, Ryan Diem 31) and the talent, the physical (2m01 for 140 Kg) and the rigor of Castanzo should allow Manning to regain his serenity pocket of protection.
Gabe Carimi OT Wisconsin Despite the obvious need for the position of BC, the Eagles should take Carimi. Michael Vick likes to throw, but Michael Vick especially loves to run and for that he needs a solid Oline than to open his good breccia and especially to protect it, the Eagles have allowed opponents to 52 times their Sacker QBS. Perfect for block diagrams of Andy Reid, Carimi has evolved into a great University
privileging the race, his blocks very good powerful it will win its place as starter.
DT Corey Liuget Illinois : The Saints roster is fairly full and share the position of RB to complement, the franchise of New Orleans does not really big hole in its workforce. Corey Liuget or maybe if Muhammad Wilkerson Temple will be very good at DT Sedrick Ellis complements. They would fill both the rotation for the middle of the D-Line. Liuget advantage for its ability to pass-rush.
Jimmy Smith CB Colorado : Seahaws air defense this season was simply catastrophic .. with 4000 Yds Tds collected for 31 and 7.2 yds per pass, it ranks second last in the league. CB Kelly Jennings being free stater agent this summer, the Seahawks will solidify the secondary with the best CBdisponible.
Cameron Heyward, Ohio State : A year ago, Duncan had his place in the top 10 of many Mock Draft, but his season in half tint did serious fall in the first round. Shoulder surgery at the end of season NCAA Heyward will prove at the combine, or at the pro day at Ohio State if he is still recovering, its real value. With 130 Kg and 1m98, it will be the perfect Defensive End for the D-line juggernaut in 3-4 Ravens defensive linemen adept very powerful.
Kyle Rudolph TE Notre Dame : The Falcons have a nugget in the person of Matt Ryan, but the young QB has only one quality target with Roddy White . The Pro Bowl TE Tony Gonzalez has spoken of retirement at the end of the season and should be given additional options to attack the Falcons. Very talented in his footsteps and having a good sense of the block, Rudolph give a very serious otpion over the Falcons offense.
Justin Houston DE / OLB Georgia : The Patriots D-Line was not as good as usual this year and the pass-rush was almost non-existent. Follower of "big lie" to positions of OLB Rusher, Bill Belichick will be happy to get that 3 -4 excellent OLB. Powerful and fast, making 19.5 tackles for loss and 11 sacks this season, Houston will blend in perfectly with the New England def.
OT Derek Sherrod Mississippi State : The Bears did not secure enough they face the Packers QB in the conference final and Jay Cutler probably still remembers. Leader NFL this season in terms of sacks granted with the memorable score of 60, Cutler should be able to launch his balls without thinking about the number of ratings that he will remain at the end of the match. Sherrod is fast, powerful, his blocks are good and the ground game to Mississippi State owes him much. An excellent choice for the physical integrity of Cutler ..
Titus Young WR Boise State : Both Wide Receivers Santonio Holmes stars Jets and Braylon Edwards will Free Agents this summer and there is no indication so far that two or even one of the two is resigned to the Jets. Titus Young is explosive and very fast with his profile to the Panthers' Steve Smith. It will give Mark Sanchez a solution on the intermediate and deep routes.
Mike Pouncey Florida G: The steelers will not resist the urge to meet the twin brothers Mike and Maurkice Pouncey. The two players with secure all Tim Tebow for three seasons, automation between the Centre and Maurkice Guard Mike are naturally obvious. 5 players from the Steelers will 0line Free Agents this summer and protection of Big Ben has always been a priority for Mike Tomlin. A little Florida sunshine in the Oline Pittsburgh ..
Illinois RB Mikel Leshoure : Weak Packers have not prevented to rise to the Super Bowl and win against the Steelers. The offensive backfield need some reinforcements, however, was seriously injured Ryan Grant, Brandon Jackson and James FA Starks is not the middle to bring the leather 30 times per game. Leshoure is fast, big and powerful (1m83 per 104 kg), he likes the contact and
it is capable of running between the Tackles or to the corner. A significant advantage for Aaron Rodgers.
