“Should” Mock 

 

Updated 4/16/10

 

 

 

132. St. Louis Rams- TE Ed Dickson (Oregon)

The Rams didn’t have a lot of firepower from the tight end position last year and then a lot of their tight ends left as free agents. They can use this pick to get a playmaker at the tight end position.

133. Seattle Seahawks (via DET)- G Jeff Byers (USC)

The Seahawks got this pick from the Lions for Rob Sims. Why wouldn’t they use it on his replacement? Byers fits their scheme a lot better than Sims did and he has experience with coach Carroll.

134. Cleveland Browns (via TB)- CB Jerome Murphy (South Florida)

Even with the addition of Sheldon Brown, the Browns need depth at the cornerback position. Brown probably only has 2 more good years in him left anyway.

135. Washington Redskins- WR Andre Roberts (Citadel)

Wide receiver isn’t a huge need, but there isn’t a ton of talent in their receiving corps and Roberts it too good to pass on.

136. Kansas City Chiefs- S Quentin Scott (Northern Iowa)

Quentin Scott could be this year’s Michael Mitchell. That athletic safety no one has ever heard of that gets a lot of mid round consideration. Scott won’t go in the 2ndlike Mitchell, but he runs a 4.40 at 6-4 224, hits like a linebacker, and also plays receiver. He could be the strong safety the Chiefs need to replace Bernard Pollard

137. Philadelphia Eagles (via CLE)- WR Carlton Mitchell (South Florida)

The Eagles have a ton of picks this year after trading Sheldon Brown. I literally started running out of positions when I was putting this mock together. The Eagles could use a goal line type receiver like Mitchell, who has amazing physical upside.

138. Oakland Raiders- G Marshall Newhouse (TCU)

Newhouse ran a 5.00 at 6-4 322. This makes him a great player.

139. Seattle Seahawks- QB Tony Pike (Cincinnati)

They traded for and gave a large contract to Charlie Whitehurst, but counting on a former 3rd rounder who has never thrown an NFL pass to be your quarterback of the future is not a good idea. Tony Pike is a steal here and would be a good fit in Seattle’s West Coast scheme.

140. Buffalo Bills- RLB Koa Misi (Utah)

A rush linebacker is needed opposite Aaron Maybin. Misi could be a steal here.

141. Chicago Bears- G Mitch Petrus (Arkansas)

Matt Forte was out of shape last year, but his awful season can’t be completely blamed on him. The Bears’ offensive line opened up a grand total of one hole for him all last year. Petrus would be an immediate left guard upgrade.

142. Kansas City Chiefs (via MIA)- 3-4 DE Jeff Owens (Georgia)

The Chiefs are always looking to add more muscle to the defensive line and Owens is one of the more physically fit players in this draft class.

143. Jacksonville Jaguars- DE Daniel Te’o-Neshiem (Washington)

The signing of Aaron Kampman was smart, but unless Derrick Harvey or Quentin Groves turn things around in a hurry, they’ll need another defensive end opposite him.

144. Kansas City Chiefs (via CAR)- C Matt Tennant (Boston College)

Another offensive line upgrade for the Chiefs who need an upgrade at center.

145. San Francisco 49ers- RLB Willie Young (NC State)

Manny Lawson looked great in the 2nd half of the season last year. However, one good half season doesn’t convince me he’s not a bust. They’ll need a backup plan in case Lawson reverts.

146. Cleveland Browns (via DET, DEN)- OT Sam Young (Notre Dame)

Among the many things he did upon becoming coach of the Browns, Eric Mangini decided to would be necessary to downgrade the right tackle position significantly, replacing Kevin Schaffer with John St. Clair. That didn’t work, so the Browns will be looking for a right tackle in the NFL Draft.

147. New York Giants- DE Lindsey Witten (Connecticut)

If they decided to cut or trade Osi Umenyiora, they’ll need a replacement in the mid rounds to be their 3rd rusher in their defensive end rotation.

148. Tennessee Titans- WR Blair White (Michigan State)

Kenny Britt is a solid #1 of the future. Who will be their #2? Justin Gage? Nate Washington? Probably not.

149. Atlanta Falcons- G Sergio Render (Virginia Tech)

The Falcons have very few needs, but interior line is depth is something they lack and Render has decent upside to be a future starter.

 

 

150. Houston Texans- OLB Kavell Conner (Clemson)

Brian Cushing was a great pick by the Texans last year, but they needed multiple linebacker upgrades last year and only got too. Conner is a great fit for the scheme. He’s very raw and inexperienced, but you have to like his upside. He was great last year for Clemson after he took the starting job and ran with it.

151. Pittsburgh Steelers- RB LeGarrette Blount (Oregon)

The Steelers lack a goal line back and with Willie Parker gone, they’ll need another running back to pair with Rashard Mendenhall.

152. Cincinnati Bengals – S Kurt Coleman (Ohio State)

Chris Crocker is average at best. Coleman could be some nice competition.

153. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (via NE)- WR Jordan Shipley (Texas)

The Bucs need to draft more than one wide receiver this year. Reggie Brown is currently their #1 option for 2010. Shipley is a steal here.

154. Green Bay Packers- RLB Antonio Coleman (Auburn)

Brad Jones was good towards the end of last year, but I don’t think that alone is enough to end him a starting job for the future. They’ll want to bring in competition if they can.

155. Pittsburgh Steelers (via NYJ, PHI)- S Robert Johnson (Utah)

If Troy Polamalu goes down again, they’ll want more safety depth. Johnson could also be their free safety of the future if he pans out.

156. Baltimore Ravens- TE Anthony McCoy (USC)

Todd Heap finally stayed healthy last year. I can’t imagine that will continue.

157. Baltimore Ravens (via ARI)- RLB George Selvie (South Florida)

Terrell Suggs had a horrible year last year after signing his extension. They’ll want a rush linebacker to challenge him and force him to be his best again. 

158. Oakland Raiders (via NE, DEN, DAL)- CB Crezdon Butler (Clemson)

Butler runs a 4.41 at 6-0 199. This makes him a great player.

159. San Diego Chargers- OT Zane Beadles (Utah)

Beadles provides depth at three positions the Chargers are weak at, left guard, right tackle, and right guard.

160. Cleveland Browns (via NYJ)- 3-4 DE Corey Peters (Kentucky)

A natural fit for a 3-4 and experienced in the 3-4 in college, Peters will be a solid depth guy for the Browns who just lost Corey Williams via trade.

161. Minnesota Vikings- CB Walter Thurmond (Oregon)

They’ll need to add a cornerback to the mix in case Cedric Griffin can’t start next season after his injury.

162. Indianapolis Colts- DE Brandon Lang (Troy)

Dwight Freeney and Robert Mathis are both free agents in 2011. They’ll be looking for pass rushers at some point in this draft.

163. St. Louis Rams (via PHI, NO)- CB Patrick Stoudamire (Western Illinois)

It’s not their biggest need, but cornerback could be upgraded. For my exclusive interview with Patrick Stoudamire, click here.

164. Pittsburgh Steelers (comp)- QB Bill Stull (Pittsburgh)

Sadly, Roger Goddell could slap a suspension on Big Ben without a conviction, which, needless to say, would be a huge hit to their team. Dennis Dixon isn’t necessarily the guy you want starting in his absence. Stull probably isn’t either, but if you combine the two, you have a better shot at finding a starter. Stull has experience in a Pro Style offense and is homegrown.

165. Atlanta Falcons (comp)- K Garrett Lindholm (Tarleton State)

The Falcons struggled for consistency at the kicker position last year and almost certainly will address that need in the draft this year. For my exclusive interview with Garrett Lindholm, click here.

166. Pittsburgh Steelers (comp)- 3-4 DE Clifton Geathers (South Carolina)

Besides the unproven Evander Hood, the top 4 guys in the Steelers defensive end rotation are over 30.

167. Minnesota Vikings (comp)- RB James Starks (Buffalo)

Starks could fill Chester Taylor’s old role behind Adrian Peterson.

168. San Diego Chargers (comp)- MLB Micah Johnson (Kentucky)

The Chargers have needed an upgrade inside for years and if Johnson, who played in the 3-4 in college, pans out, he’ll be a nice upgrade.

169. Green Bay Packers (comp)- G Brandon Carter (Texas Tech)

Another offensive line upgrade for one of the worst offensive lines in the league last year.
