Sam Bradford
1. STL: Sam Bradford, QB, Oklahoma
The Rams have to be certain that Bradford is their franchise QB for the future. If they aren't sure then I believe that they will pick Suh. However, the Rams need a QB a lot more than they need a DT, so Bradford will be their pick.
2. DET: Ndamukong Suh, DT, Nebraska
This is a no brainer, Suh is the best player in the country and he fills a need for the Lions. He instantly upgrades their defense.
3. TB: Gerald McCoy, DT, Oklahoma
This is the Buccaneers dream scenario, McCoy is still available and he fills a position of need. McCoy is clearly one of the best players in the country and will be a tremendous threat for the Buccaneers for many years to come.
4. WAS: Jimmy Clausen, QB, Notre Dame
The Redskins take their QB of the future. They need a new face of the franchise. Russell Okung will definitely be a strong option, but I believe they will go quarterback with this pick.
5. KC: Russell Okung, OT, Oklahoma St.
This is a great pick for the Chiefs; they need to protect Matt Cassel. That has to be their number one concern this offseason, and with the 5th pick they could land the top LT.
6. SEA: Eric Berry, FS, Tennessee
Berry is a top 5 pick. He is a safety who kind of had a down year, but is still a top prospect. He is a terrific playmaker who is full of potential. This also fills a need for the Seahawks. Offensive tackle is a very strong option here too, but Berry is too good to past up.
7. CLE: Joe Haden, CB, Florida
The Browns will be considering taking Dez Bryant, but they take to top CB in this year's draft to help their defense. Joe Haden has proven himself to be the top CB this year and will most likely be a top 10 pick. He is very good at man coverage and is a factor in the run game as well. He is a very well rounded prospect.
8. OAK: Anthony Davis, OT, Rutgers
Oakland needs to address their LT need. Bulaga's short arms raise concerns, so they go with Davis out of Rutgers. Davis is among one of the top OT's this year and he could upgrade Oakland's offensive line.
9. BUF: Bryan Bulaga, OT, Iowa
Easy pick for the Bills. Bryan Bulaga is an athletic LT prospect who could step in and start at LT immediately. His arms were measured in as very short (33 14 inches) at the combine, which is a big concern. However he plays tough, has great technique, and I feel he's one best OT's in this draft at both the run and the pass game.
10. JAX: Derrick Morgan, DE, Georgia Tech
Derrick Morgan is a top 10-12 pick and he fits a need for Jacksonville. Derrick Harvey and Quentin Groves have not panned out as planned. He is one of the best players available on the board right now
11. DEN: Dan Williams, DT, Tennessee
Dan Williams would be a huge upgrade for Denver. He not only had a great senior season, but he followed that up with a tremendous Senior Bowl. His stock is on the rise, and nose tackles for 3-4 defensive schemes will go fast on draft day.
12. MIA: Dez Bryant, WR, Oklahoma St.
The highest rated wide receiver in the draft falls to number 12. Parcells is not known to draft WR's in the first round, and he is known to not like problem or diva players, and Bryant is coming off a full season suspension. However, Dez Bryant is a truly exceptional player, and is too good to pass up on.

Picks 1-12 | 13-24 | 25-32
