predicted 2010 mock drafts.

[SomeStrangeSin]

todd mcshay's 2010 mock draft
1. St. Louis Rams -- Sam Bradford, QB, Oklahoma
2. Cleveland Browns -- Ndamukong Suh, DT, Nebraska
3. Detroit Lions -- Russell Okung, OT, Oklahoma State
4. Oakland Raiders -- Trent Williams, OT, Oklahoma
5. Kansas City Chiefs -- Jermaine Gresham, TE, Oklahoma
6. Seattle Seahawks (from Denver) -- Colt McCoy, QB, Texas
7. Jacksonville Jaguars -- Gerald McCoy, DT, Oklahoma
8. San Francisco 49ers -- Taylor Mays, S, USC
9. Green Bay Packers -- Adam Ulatoski, OT, Texas
10. San Francisco 49ers (from CAR) -- Sergio Kindle, OLB, Texas
11. Washington Redskins -- Ciron Black, OT, LSU
12. Tampa Bay Buccaneers -- Geno Atkins, DT, Georgia
13. Denver Broncos (from CHI) -- Jerry Hughes, OLB, TCU
14. Buffalo Bills -- Sam Young, OT, Notre Dame
15. Cincinnati Bengals -- C.J. Spiller, RB, Clemson
16. Miami Dolphins -- George Selvie, DE, South Florida
17. Tennessee Titans -- Brandon Spikes, ILB, Florida

Spikes lacks elite speed and needs to play with more consistent leverage. On the flip side, he's a hard-hitting emotional leader with very good instincts.

18. Seattle Seahawks -- Brandon LaFell, WR, LSU
19. Houston Texans -- Trevard Lindley, CB, Kentucky
20. New Orleans Saints -- Navorro Bowman, OLB, Penn State
21. New York Jets -- DeMarcus Granger, DT, Oklahoma
22. Baltimore Ravens -- Marshwan Gilyard, WR, Cincinnati
23. Dallas Cowboys -- Javier Arenas, CB, Alabama
24. New York Giants -- Brandon Lang, DE, Troy
25. Minnesota Vikings -- Nate Allen, S, South Florida
26. Indianapolis Colts -- Eric Norwood, DE, South Carolina
27. Arizona Cardinals -- Sergio Render, G, Virginia Tech
28. San Diego Chargers -- LeGarrette Blount, RB, Oregon
29. Atlanta Falcons -- Mark Herzlich, OLB, Boston College
30. Pittsburgh Steelers -- Terrence Cody, DT, Alabama
31. Philadelphia Eagles -- Greg Hardy, DE, Mississippi
32. New England Patriots -- Micah Johnson, ILB, Kentucky
So once again, McShay has the Titans missing the playoffs. Last year he had them picking 11th in his mock for the next season, so I guess he is buying into this team a little more. Anyone want to put odds on 9 of the first 10 picks being from the Big 12?

---------------------------------------------------------------

1. Cleveland Browns: Sam Bradford, QB, Oklahoma
   If the Browns finish with the worst record in the NFL, it's safe to project that both Brady Quinn and Derek Anderson struggled. Seeing as how they have no running game, unproven/unreliable receivers and a horrific defense, that's definitely a possibility.
   
   There were rumors that Eric Mangini wanted to draft Mark Sanchez. If the Browns finish with a poor record, Mangini may attribute it to the fact that he didn't have "his guy" at quarterback.
2. Kansas City Chiefs: Arrelious Benn, WR, Illinois
   With Tony Gonzalez gone, Matt Cassel doesn't have much to work with outside of Dwayne Bowe. I've always liked Bobby Engram, but he's 36. Mark Bradley, Devard Darling? Meh.
   
   Arrelious Benn is the only option here for now. Well, logical option. Knowing Scott Pioli, he'd probably go after a second-round prospect at this selection.
3. Detroit Lions: Russell Okung, OT, Oklahoma State
   In addition to exposing Matt Stafford to horrific pass protection, a major problem with passing up on a left tackle at Pick Nos. 20 and 33 is that Detroit will have to address that position here. If they took Michael Oher or William Beatty in 2009, this selection could be the top defensive player available, like Carlos Dunlap or Gerald McCoy. Passing up on the second-most important position in the NFL set the Lions back yet another year.
4. St. Louis Rams: Carlos Dunlap, DE, Florida
   One of the things the Rams will need to do is find a potent defensive end to play across from Chris Long. Carlos Dunlap, a 285-pound beast who had 13.5 TFL and 9.5 sacks as a sophomore, would be a huge upgrade on St. Louis' defensive front. Leonard Little and James Hall will be 35 and 33, respectively, by the 2010 NFL Draft.
5. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Gerald McCoy, DT, Oklahoma
   With Josh Freeman positioned to be the quarterback of the future, Tampa Bay's greatest need is now defensive tackle. Coincidentally, Gerald McCoy happens to be the best player on the board.******** src="http://tag.contextweb.com/TagPublish/getjs.aspx?action=VIEWAD&cwrun=200&cwadformat=300X250&cwpid=505600&cwwidth=300&cwheight=250&cwpnet=1&cwtagid=23985">******** src="http://tag.contextweb.com/TAGPUBLISH/getad.aspx?tagver=1&if=0&ca=VIEWAD&cp=505600&ct=23985&cf=300X250&cn=1&cr=200&cw=300&ch=250&cads=0&rq=1&cwu=http%3A%2F%2Fwalterfootball.com%2Fdraft2010.ph p&mrnd=81345307" type=text/javascript> ******** type=text/javascript> sr_adspace_id = 7091207; sr_adspace_width = 300; sr_adspace_height = 250; sr_ad_new_window = true; sr_adspace_type = "graphic";******** src="http://ad.afy11.net/srad.js?azId=7091207" type=text/javascript>******** src="http://ad.afy11.net/ad?asId=7091207&sd=2x300x250&ct=15&enc=1&sf=0&sfd=0&ynw=0&anw=1&rand=39704855&rk1=55135197&rk2=1241724681.515&pt=0">******** language=javascript src="http://media.fastclick.net/w/get.media?sid=43988&m=6&tp=8&d=j&t=n">******** language=JavaScript1.1 src="http://ad.doubleclick.net/adj/N4506.media.valueclick.com/B3613521.3;sz=300x250;click=http://media.fastclick.net/w/click.here?cid=175306&mid=329585&sid=43988&m=6&c=0&forced_click=;ord=20090507193120?">******** src="http://m1.2mdn.net/879366/flashwrite_1_2.js">
6. Oakland Raiders: Taylor Mays, S, USC
   This is pretty much a no-brainer because if Taylor Mays came out early, Al Davis would have targeted him at No. 7 overall in the 2009 NFL Draft. Mays is an athletic freak who plays a position that the Raiders currently have a need for. Plus, Undead Al has a penchant for selecting defensive backs in the first round. Check out Al Davis' Oakland Raiders NFL Draft History.
7. Seattle Seahawks: Eric Berry, S, Tennessee
   I loved Seattle's draft, especially with the possibility of selecting in the top 10 in 2010, but Tim Ruskell couldn't get around to addressing the safety position. Looks like Brian Russell won't be deported after all. With that in mind, why not select one of the top safety prospects in recent memory? As a sophomore, Berry had 72 tackles, 8.5 TFL, three sacks, seven picks (two for TDs) and six passes broken up.
8. Buffalo Bills: Jevan Snead, QB, Ole Miss
   If the Bills are drafting in the top 10 of the 2010 NFL Draft, I'm willing to bet that Dick Jauron and his staff are no longer with the organization.
   
   New regimes mean new quarterbacks, so Buffalo's new front office will be looking to land "its guy."
9. Jacksonville Jaguars: Ndamukong Suh, DT, Nebraska
   Jack Del Rio and Gene Smith have made it known that they want to win the battle in the trenches. John Henderson may not be around much longer, but even he will be, the Jaguars have proven that they're willing to take high-rated prospects despite being deep at the position.
10. San Francisco 49ers: Joe Haden, CB, Florida
    Walt Harris, 35 in August, will be playing in the final year of his contract in 2009. The 49ers already need someone across from Nate Clements. Joe Haden would be a great addition to San Francisco's secondary.

11. Dallas Cowboys: Reshad Jones, FS, Georgia
    I've received a few e-mails from disgruntled Cowboy fans who were puzzled as to why Jerry Jones passed up on Rashad Johnson in the 2009 NFL Draft. Quite frankly, I didn't understand it either, but maybe another SEC free safety can make them forgive and forget.
12. New York Jets: Damian Williams, WR, USC
    Unless the Jets trade for Anquan Boldin or Braylon Edwards, they'll be targeting a receiver early in the 2010 NFL Draft. Mark Sanchez needs someone to throw to besides Jerricho Cotchery. David Clowney has shown some promise, but obviously neither wideout is a true No. 1. Sanchez will obviously be comfortable with Damian Williams, who had 58 receptions, 869 yards and nine touchdowns in 2008.
    
    Pick change; previously Dez Bryant, WR
13. Green Bay Packers: Bryan Bulaga, OT, Iowa
    Chad Clifton, coming off knee surgery, is entering his contract year. The Packers will need a new blind-side protector for Aaron Rodgers, and Bryan Bulaga is a great fit for their zone-blocking scheme.
14. Washington Redskins: Tim Tebow, QB, Florida
    There were a ton of funny things that happened this offseason. Oakland's draft could be at the top of that list. Josh McDaniels' mismanagement of the Broncos was almost as humorous.
    
    One thing that went unnoticed was a quote of Daniel Snyder's a week prior to the 2009 NFL Draft. Discussing the possibility of trading up for Mark Sanchez, Snyder said, "We're really not as a franchise comfortable trading first-round draft picks ... I don't think it's a wise move to keep trading that pick. It's always a little bit risky."
    
    Really, Dan? It took you 10 years to figure that out?
    
    At any rate, Snyder loves drafting big names. Jason Campbell's contract expires after the 2009 NFL season, and I have a feeling that Snyder has already fallen in love with Tim Tebow.
    
    Pick change; previously Brandon Spikes, ILB
15. Cincinnati Bengals: C.J. Spiller, RB, Clemson
    The Bengals don't have too many needs, so they can draft for value and upside here. C.J. Spiller would provide their offense with a big-play threat, an element they currently lack. If Spiller runs in the 4.3s, he'll be coveted by a several teams in the first round of the 2010 NFL Draft.
16. Miami Dolphins: Terrence Cody, NT, Alabama
    Jason Ferguson turns 35 in November and as you can see in the new 2010 NFL Free Agency and Beyond - Expiring Contracts section, he's entering his contract year. If Terrence Cody is available, I can't see Bill Parcells passing up on him.
17. Minnesota Vikings: Geno Atkins, DT, Georgia
    No quarterbacks worth taking here, so the Vikings will look at a position they could have easily addressed in the 2009 NFL Draft. Pat Williams turns 37 in October and will need to be replaced soon.
    
    Pick change; previously Tim Tebow, QB

18. New Orleans Saints: Mark Herzlich, OLB, Boston College
    The Saints had only four selections going into the 2009 NFL Draft, so they didn't have the chance to upgrade their linebacking corps until the fourth round. They'll need to do that come 2010.
19. Arizona Cardinals: Ciron Black, OT, LSU
    It wouldn't hurt if the Cardinals found a bookend tackle across from Levi Brown. Mike Gandy, who just entered his 30s, surrendered 6.5 sacks in 2008. He'll be a free agent after the 2009 NFL season anyway.
20. Houston Texans: Earl Thomas, FS, Texas
    With Malcolm Jenkins gone, the Texans weren't in position to take a top-tier safety in the 2009 NFL Draft. With that in mind, they may look for one in the 2010 NFL Draft, where there could be four safeties chosen in the first round (Eric Berry, Taylor Mays, Reshad Jones, Earl Thomas).
21. Seattle Seahawks: Jonathan Dwyer, RB, Georgia Tech
    The Seahawks didn't address the running back position in the 2009 NFL Draft, so it appears as though they're willing to give Julius Jones another shot. That doesn't sound like a good idea to me. Running back will be a big need a year from now.
22. San Francisco 49ers: Sergio Kindle, DE/OLB, Texas
    Without a potent pass-rushing option across from Parys Haralson, I doubt the 49ers are going to generate too many sacks in 2009. That'll need to change. Sergio Kindle had 10.5 sacks and 21 TFL as a junior. At 6-4, 254, Kindle could run a low 4.5 40, making him the top rush linebacker available in the 2010 NFL Draft.
23. Tennessee Titans: Everson Griffen, DE, USC
    Jevon Kearse and Kyle Vanden Bosch both have expiring contracts after the 2009 season. The Titans will be looking for defensive end help.
24. Baltimore Ravens: Jermaine Gresham, TE, Oklahoma
    Receiver is the bigger need here, but Ozzie Newsome knows how to draft and won't let a talented prospect like Jermaine Gresham pass him by. Todd Heap has suffered too many injuries in his career; L.J. Smith was signed to a mere 1-year deal; Davon Drew was just a fifth-round pick; while Quinn "Miracle Man" Sypniewski couldn't even play on a torn ACL last year. How disappointing.
25. Atlanta Falcons: Sean Weatherspoon, OLB, Missouri
    Thomas Dimitroff just had another great draft, but one area he failed to address was the linebacking corps. That could be taken care of here.
26. Philadelphia Eagles: Brandon Graham, DE, Michigan
    Great call by Matt with this pick - Brandon Graham is the every-down left end Jimmy Johnson would love on his defense. As a junior, Graham had 20 TFL and 10 sacks.
    
    Pick change; previously Geno Atkins, DT
27. Indianapolis Colts: Brandon Spikes, ILB, Florida
    Gary Brackett's contract expires after the 2009 NFL season and Brandon Spikes appears to be one of the top players left on the board.
    
    Pick change; previously Rolando McClain, ILB
28. San Diego Chargers: Dez Bryant, WR, Oklahoma State
    Chris Chambers is entering his contract year. Considering he'll be 32 a month before the 2010 season, I don't think the Chargers are going to retain him.
    
    Pick change; previously Arthur Jones, DE/DT
29. Denver Broncos: Colt McCoy, QB, Texas
    Colt McCoy shouldn't be a first-round pick, but something tells me that Josh McDaniels is going to envision him as "his guy." After all, McDaniels' flawless offensive system requires quarterbacks to make really short passes and play out of the shotgun.
30. Pittsburgh Steelers: Kris O'Dowd, C, USC
    The Steelers couldn't get Alex Mack or Eric Wood, so unless A.Q. Shipley really impresses Mike Tomlin, Pittsburgh could be looking for a replacement for Justin Hartwig a year from now.
31. New York Giants: Trevard Lindley, CB, Kentucky
    Jerry Reese will laugh once again as Trevard Lindley falls to him. The Giants could use some help at corner if they decide to move Terrell Thomas to safety.
32. New England Patriots: Trent Williams, OT, Oklahoma
    The offensive line is a huge issue for the Patriots. As you can see in the new 2010 NFL Free Agency and Beyond - Expiring Contracts section, all but four of New England's main linemen will be free agents after the 2010 season. And Matt Light will have only one year left on his contract by the time the 2010 NFL Draft rolls around.
    
    I also considered George Selvie here, but Bill Belichick understands positional value and knows that solid left tackles don't grow on trees.

2010 NFL Mock Draft

This an early projection on where some of these prospects have value for the 2010 NFL Draft, based off their performance as juniors and sophomores in college. Follow me on Twitter: @nfldraftdog

Team		Player	Comments:
	1.	QB Sam Bradford, Oklahoma	A shocker that he didn't enter the 2009 NFL Draft where he would have been a top 5 selection.
The Broncos might trade up to get Bradford.
	2.	DT Terrance Cody, Alabama	Cody (6' 5" 365 lbs) is a monster on the inside and can dunk a basketball at his current weight.
He needs to lose about 20 more pounds to be drafted this high.
	3.	LB Brandon Spikes, Florida	Spikes hits like a ton of bricks, has nice size at 6' 3" 240 lbs and great pursuit speed.
He recorded 87 tackles and 8 TFLs in 2008.
	4.	S Eric Berry, Tennessee (JR)	Berry is the best safety to come out of college since the former (deceased) Redskins safety Sean Taylor.
Berry has great range and speed.
	5.	DT Ndamukong Suh, Nebraska	The most improved player in the country in 2008. Suh has immense talent, great size (6' 4" 304 lbs).
Suh Moves like a 300 pound linebacker
	6.	DT Gerald McCoy, Oklahoma (JR)	McCoy is very productive for a massive (6' 4" 302 lbs) interior lineman.
He recorded 9 tackles for loss and 6 sacks after just 9 games in 2008.
	7.	TE Jermain Gresham, OKlahoma	This is high for a tight end, but Gresham is something special.
Gresham (6' 6" 265 lbs) should have a big senior year at Oklahoma.
	8.	DE/OLB, Greg Hardy, Mississippi (JR)	Hardy (6' 4" 264 lbs) reminds me of the Cowboy's DeMarcus Ware.
Hardy was injured early and only played in 8 games last season, but still managed 9.5 TFLs and 8.5 sacks.
	9.	OT Russell Okung, OK State	Okung is a mauler and has NFL size (6' 5" 303 lbs).
He was a big reason for Oklahoma State's success in 2008.
	10.	OT Ciron Black, LSU	Black is a very talented offensive tackle and could be a top ten selection in the 2010 NFL Draft.
2010 doesn't look like a real stromg year for offensive tackles.
	11.	WR Brandon LaFell, LSU	A big play receiver with nice size (6' 3" 213 lbs). QB Mark Sanchez needs more targets.
LaFell almost declared for the 2009 NFL Draft where he likely would have been a 2-3rd rounder
	12.	DE George Selvie, South Florida	Constantly double teamed in 2008, but looks to have a bounce back year in 2009.
In 2007 Selvie led the nation in tackles for loss with 31.5 and 14.5 sacks.
	13.	ILB Rolando McLain, Alabama (JR)	McLain (6' 4" 254 lbs) is hard to run against and is a major force on the inside for the Crimson Tide.
	14.	SS Taylor Mays, USC	A massive (6' 3" 230 lbs) safety that might end up as linebacker.
	15.	OLB Jerry Hughes, TCU	A pass rushing terror that might be a perfect fit to play linebacker (6' 2" 248) in the Pats 3-4 defense.
As a junior in 2008 he led the nation with 17 TFLs and 14 sacks.
	16.	DE/DT Jeffry Fitzgerald, Virginia	Fitzgerald was suspended during the 2008 season due to academic issues.
If Fitzgerald gets his act together next year could be a very high draft pick. Nice size (6' 4" 280 lbs) and athletic ability.
	17.	OT Bryan Bulaga, Iowa (JR)	One of the best offensive line prospects to come out of Iowa since Robert gallery.
Instrumental in the emergence of 2008 star running back Shonn Greene.
	18.	QB Colt McCoy, Texas	The Seahawks missed out on Mark Sanchez in the 2009 NFL Draft, but now get a very mobile experienced signal caller.
	19.	C Kristopher O' Dowd, USC (JR)	From Bears: The first freshman to start at center in USC's history.
O'Dowd is big, (6' 5" 302 lbs) strong and talented.
	20.	QB Tim Hiller, Western Michigan	A projection at this point, but nice size (6' 5" 228) and a big arm.
We could see Hiller rise up the boards similar to how Joe Flacco did in the 2008 NFL Draft.
	21.	LB Mark Herzlich, Boston College	A super blue chip, dependable linebacker with excellent size (6' 4" 240 lbs).
	22.	DE/OLB Antonio Coleman, Auburn	Might have been an early selection in the 2009 NFL Draft.
A very explosive pass rushing defensive end/linebacker.
	23.	QB Tim Tebow, Florida	I am still not convinced that Tebow can win in the NFL with his arm.
Tebow might get drafted early due to his athleticism and production.
	24.	LB Sean Weatherspoon, Missouri	The Spoon isn't that big, but is one of the best playmakers in this draft.
Weatherspoon had a fantastic season in 2008 recording 138 tackles, 16 TFLs, 4 sacks and 3 INTs.
	25.	LB Sean Lee, Penn State	Lee would have likely been a first rounder in the 2009 NFL Draft if he wouldn't have gotten injured just prior to the season.
	26.	OLB Sergio Kindle, Texas	Kindle is a talented linebacker with nice size (6' 4" 247 lbs).
He had a break out year in 2008 where he recorded 8.5 sacks.
	27.	RB LeGarrette Blount, Oregon	Blount is a long strider (6' 2" 230 lbs) and the closest thing I have seen to Eric Dickerson in quite some time.
	28.	LB Greg Jones, Michigan State	A little under sized at (6' 1" 228 lbs), but Jones can play in the NFL.
Super instinctive, speedy linebacker that can close on plays in a flash.
	29.	WR David Gettis, Baylor	An amazing offensive weapon with great size (6' 4" 210 lbs). Still raw, but blazing fast. Ran a 21.52 in the 200 meters.
	30.	LB Joe Pawelek, Baylor	Pawelek (6' 3" 240 lbs) was a tackling machine in 2008 when he led the nation in tackles.
	31.	LB Mark Herzlich, Boston College	A super blue chip, dependable linebacker with excellent size (6' 4" 240 lbs).
	32.	OLB Brandon Lang, troy	The Boys have had success with pass rushers from Troy (DeMarcus Ware).
Lang (6' 4" 256 lbs) recorded 11.5 sacks and 19 tackles for loss in 2008.

When you copy and paste you might wanna cut out the ads.

[Yeah...THAT Guy]

Wow McShay doesn't think the Bucs are going to have a top 10 pick in next years draft. I think we'll have a top 5.

[afro_dogg20]

I still don't no why "experts" do mock drafts at this time of the year.

I still don't get why people think Tampa will be that bad, by default I don't think we will.

Detroit
Oakland
KC
Cleve
Denver
STL

Top 10 maybe, but def not top 5
