Top 2010 NFL Mock Draft Picks: Team Needs and Predictions
- St. Louis Rams: Dez Bryant, WR, Ok State
This is a team desperately in need of an offensive playmaker. Bryant is one of the best. I know this one sounds crazy, but it might be crazy enough to work. - Detroit Lions: Eric Berry, S, UT
The Lions could use a second playmaker next to Louis Delmas. - Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Russell Okung, OT, Ok State
Freeman is their QB of the future. They need to protect Freeman. - Washington Redskins: Jimmy Clausen, QB, Notre Dame
After trying to trade for Jay Cutler, Synder wants a new franchise quarterback. Jason Campbell isn’t cutting it. - Kansas City Chiefs: Ndamukong Suh, DT, Nebraska
Best player in the draft. The Chiefs need a playmaker, and Suh provides them with that. - Seattle Seahawks: Sam Bradford, QB, Oklahoma
New coach, new quarterback. Hasselbeck is getting up there in age. Plus they have another pick in the first round to address other needs. - Cleveland Browns: C.J. Spiller, RB, Clemson
This is a team built to run the ball, but they don’t have a running back. Don’t be fooled by Jerome Harrison’s late season surge. He’s better suited as the second back in a two back system. - Oakland Raiders: Gerald McCoy, DT, OU
*Insert Al Davis joke here* Seriously, the Raiders spend a lot of money on their tackles, but get little production. Look for one of the overpaid starters to get cut. - Buffalo Bills: Bruce Campbell, OT, Maryland
Trading away Jason Peters doesn’t look so good now does it? - Jacksonville Jaguars: Rolando McClain, ILB, Alabama
In need of an impact player on defense. - Denver Broncos (Chicago): Joe Haden, CB, Florida
Oh, what could have been for da Bears… - Miami Dolphins: Arrelious Benn, WR, ILL
Too early? Probably. However, I’ve seen Benn play in person a couple of times. This kid is the real deal. - San Francisco 49ers: Anthony Davis, T, Rutgers
Staley is a mainstay on the left side, but this team hasn’t been able to replace Marvel Smith on the right. - Seattle Seahawks (Denver): Derrick Morgan, DE, Georgia Tech
This team only had 28 sacks in 2009. - New York Giants: Brian Price, DT, UCLA
Defensive tackle is a need and this a premium position. Look for Reese to take this value pick. - Tennessee Titans Everson Griffen, DE, USC
Jevon Kearse is done. This team is going to be looking for their new “Freak”. - San Francisco 49ers: Tim Tebow, QB, Florida
Shaun Hill? Alex Smith? No and No. Tebow fits in well with Mike Singletary’s physical, pound the rock team mentality. - Pittsburgh Steelers: Bryan Bulaga, OT, Iowa
This team still allows too many sacks. Sure Big Ben is one of the best at avoiding them, but think of what he could do with a line. - Atlanta Falcons: Donovan Warren, CB, Michigan
Desperately need help in the secondary. - Houston Texans: Taylor Mays, S, USC
Mays probably made a mistake coming back to school. However, he is the hardest hitter in the draft. - Cincinnati Bengals: Dan Williams, NT, Tennessee
Every team could use more beef in the middle. - New England Patriots: Jerry Hughes, DE/OLB, TCU
Aging defense that can’t get to the quarterback consistently. Hughes could help them. - Green Bay Packers: Charles Brown, OT, USC
Aaron Rodgers is one of the premier young quarterbacks in the league. Give him a better line, and he could be one the best period. - Philadelphia Eagles: Jason Pierre-Paul, DE, South Florida
Good positional value here. Boom or bust type player. - Baltimore Ravens: Damian Williams, WR, USC
In the Ravens’ playoff loss to the Colts, their inept passing attack was exposed. Flacco finally gets another weapon. - Arizona Cardinals: Jermaine Gresham, TE, Oklahoma
Two great receivers, why not add a great tight end? - Dallas Cowboys: Terrence Cody, DT, Alabama
Allows Ratliff to move to end in their 3-4 scheme. - San Diego Chargers: Jahvid Best, RB, CAL
L.T. is done in San Diego. While Sproles is good, he’s not an every down back. - New York Jets: Jared Odrick, DE/DT, Penn State
Another piece for Rex Ryan’s vaulted defense. - Minnesota Vikings: Chad Jones, FS, LSU
Madieu Williams is overpaid and under performing. - New Orleans Saints: Carlos Dunlap, DE, Florida
Another weapon for their greatly improved defense. - Indianapolis Colts: Greg Hardy, DE, Ole Miss
Mathis and Freeney can’t stay productive and healthy forever.
