Mock Draft

1. Indianapolis
Needs: QB, WR, DL, CB, OL, TE, ILB, RB
Andrew Luck, QB, Stanford
Has it all — size (6-4, 235), athletic ability (4.59, 36 vertical), escapability and smarts, while already running a pro set.

2. Washington
Needs: QB, S, RT, ILB, CB, G/C
Robert Griffin III, QB, Baylor
Probably No. 1 pick in any other year. Dynamic and breathtaking. Decent size (6-2, 220), but great arm, speed (4.41), leadership and intelligence.

3. Minnesota
Needs: CB, LT, WR, S, G, LB, DT
Matt Kalil, LT, USC
Well-schooled at pass blocking. Has good feet, balance. Might not be a power-driving run-blocker yet. Vikings haven’t drafted OT this high since Ron Yary (also USC) in 1968. Options: Trade down with QB-starved team.

4. Cleveland
Needs: RB, WR, QB, RT, CB, OLB
Trent Richardson, RB, Alabama
Everything you want in a back. Runs with speed (4.47), power (benched 380 in high school) and maneuverability, can block and catch, all without an ego. Options: WR Justin Blackmon, QB Ryan Tannehill.

5. Tampa Bay
Needs: CB, RB, LB, SS, TE
Morris Claiborne, CB, LSU
Playmaker with elite ball skills, with makeup speed that’s faster than his 40 (4.43). Often looks like the receiver instead of defender. Options: Richardson if he is bypassed.

6. St. Louis
Needs: WR, OL, CB, OLB, DT
Justin Blackmon, WR, Oklahoma State
A playmaker who breaks tackles and never seems to get run down. QB Sam Bradford needs weapons and protection. Options: Claiborne; OT Kalil or Riley Reiff.

7. Jacksonville
Needs: DE, WR, CB, RT
Melvin Ingram, DE/OLB, South Carolina
Best athlete/impact player available, though he doesn•t seem to fit the Jags’ 4-3 scheme. He can rush from any position, including DT; can drop and play in space. Options: DL Fletcher Cox, DE Quinton Coples.

8. Miami
Needs: WR, QB, DE, RG, RT
Ryan Tannehill, QB, Texas A&M
Former WR who started just 19 games at QB. Can make all the throws, from pocket or on the move. Has high ceiling with his size (6-4, 222), speed (4.62). Options: WR Michael Floyd, DL Fletcher Cox.

9. Carolina
Needs: DT, CB, DE, WR, ILB
Fletcher Cox, DL, Mississippi State
Can be effective at either DT or DE because of his size (6-4, 295), speed (4.79). Tough, quick. Fights off double teams. Options: DE Ingram, DE Quinton Coples, DT Dontari Poe.

10. Buffalo
Needs: LT, WR, OLB
Riley Reiff, OT, Iowa
Another well-schooled Hawkeyes lineman (Bryan Bulaga, Robert Gallery). Has the size (6-6, 300) and feet to excel in protecting QB Ryan Fitzgerald’s blind side. Options: WR Floyd, DE Ingram.

11. Kansas City
Needs: NT, LG, S, DE, ILB
Luke Kuechly, ILB, Boston College
Steady and reliable. Much better all-around athlete (6-3, 242, 4.58, 38 vertical) than appears on game film. Options: LG David DeCastro, S Mark Barron, NT Poe, DL Cox.

12. Seattle
Needs: DE, LB, WR, RB
Quinton Coples, DE, North Carolina
A top-10 talent with size (6-6, 285, 4.79) and athletic ability. Seems to lack the want-to at times. Options: WR Michael Floyd, DE Courtney Upshaw, DL Cox.

13. Arizona
Needs: OT, WR, OLB, DE, S
Michael Floyd, WR, Notre Dame
Nice complement to Larry Fitzgerald. Has size (6-3, 224), speed (4.47) and toughness. Some scouts like Floyd better than Blackmon. Options: OLB/DE Courtney Upshaw, OT Reiff, OG/OT Cordy Glenn

14. Dallas
Needs: G/C, CB, OLB, SS, DE, TE
David DeCastro, G, Stanford
Cowboys fans won’t be disappointed getting the best guard since Steve Hutchinson. At 6-5, 310, he should fortify the middle for years. Options: S Barron, CBs Stephon Gilmore and Dre Kirkpatrick.

15. Philadelphia
Needs: OLB, SS, OT, DT
Mark Barron, S, Alabama
Physical safety. With his size (6-2, 218, 4.56), he’s more of a strong than a free. Eagles might need to move ahead of Cowboys to get him. Options: OLB/DE Upshaw, ILB Kuechly, DE Coples.

16. N.Y. Jets
Needs: OLB, WR, S, RT, RB, TE
Courtney Upshaw, OLB/DE, Alabama
Hold-the-edge defender who’s more of a DE than OLB since he’s better attacking than covering. Can power-rush the passer but a little short (6-2, 274, 4.74). Options: S Barron, WR Floyd.

17. Cincinnati (from Oakland)
Needs: G, WR, CB, DE
Cordy Glenn, OL, Georgia
A corner such as Stephon Gilmore or Dre Kirkpatrick also would fill a need, but Glenn might be too good and big (6-5, 348, 5.15) to pass up. Plus he does fill a need. Options:, OG DeCastro, CBs Gilmore and Kirkpatrick.

18. San Diego
Needs: OLB, SS, CB, RB, OL, DE
Stephon Gilmore, CB, South Carolina
One of the few elite CBs in the draft. Seems to bring energy and has tools (6-0, 190, 4.40, 36 vertical). Options: CB Dre Kirkpatrick, DEs Whitney Mercilus and Nick Perry.

19. Chicago
Needs: OL, DE, CB, WR
Whitney Mercilus, DE, Illinois
Monster season (16 sacks, nine forced fumbles) vaulted him up the charts. Has quick first step (4.68 speed at 262 pounds), sheds blockers well and can play the run. Options: DE Coples, DL Michael Brockers, OL Glenn.

20. Tennessee
Needs: CB, DE, C, OLB
Dre Kirkpatrick, CB, Alabama
Fills need with departure of Cortland Finnegan. A rare big CB (6-3, 190, 4.51, 35 vertical) but not a dynamo like Claiborne. Options: DLs Brockers, Mercilus, Coples and Cox; CB Gilmore.

21. Cincinnati
Needs: G, WR, CB, DE
Stephen Hill, WR, Georgia Tech
Adding a tall, fast (6-4, 215, 4.3) receiver to go with A.J. Green could give opponents nightmares and QB Andy Dalton sweet dreams. Options: WR Kendall Wright, OL Glenn.

22. Cleveland (from Atlanta)
Needs: QB, RB, WR, RT, CB, OLB
Kendall Wright, WR, Baylor
Not big (5-10, 190, 4.4), just makes big plays, going deep or breaking a short slant. Was RGIII•s go-to guy. Options: WR Hill, QBs Tannehill and Brandon Weeden.

23. Detroit
Needs: CB, RB, OL, LS, S
Jonathan Martin, OT, Stanford
Has the athletic tools (6-5, 307, 5.27, 30 vertical) to excel. Options: Trade down; CBs Janoris Jenkins, Kirkpatrick and Gilmore; OL Glenn; RB Doug Martin.

24. Pittsburgh
Needs: G, T, NT, ILB, CB
Dont’a Hightower, ILB, Alabama
How can Steelers resist an ILB who perfectly fits the physical Steelers/Ravens style? Has size (6-4, 260), speed (4.68) and striking power. Options: OGs Kevin Zeitler, Amini Silatolu and Brandon Brooks.

25. Denver
Needs: DT, RB, CB, WR, G/C
Michael Brockers, DT, LSU
Brockers can help control the middle with his size (6-6, 306) and strength. He really mixes it up in the interior with a quick first strike and power to match. Options: DE Mercilus, DTs Jerel Worthy and Devon Still.

26. Houston
Needs: WR, LB, RG, RT, CB, NT
Kevin Zeitler, G, Wisconsin
A people mover at 6-4, 315 who can pull and is powerful at the point of attack. Perfect fit for the Texans. Options: WRs Hill, Wright; NT Poe, TE Coby Fleener.

27. New England (from New Orleans)
Needs: DE, OLB, S, WR, CB
Shea McClellin, OLB, Boise State
Overlooked playmaker who can apply heat in the backfield. He’s rangy, quick (6-3•, 259, 4.63), has a great motor. Options: DEs Chandler Jones, Andre Branch and Perry.

28. Green Bay
Needs: OLB, FS, DE, RB, CB, C
Nick Perry, DE/OLB, USC
Has all the tools (6-3, 271, 4.64, 35 reps, 38.5 vertical), but seems to be a pass rusher only and not a run stuffer and not instinctive in space. Looks like a 240- to 250-pounder. Options: DE Jones, C Peter Konz.

29. Baltimore
Needs: C, G, OLB, S, DL
Peter Konz, Wisconsin, C
Ravens need an interior O-lineman in the worst way. Konz (6-5, 313) is a solid pivot, the best in this draft. Options: OGs Zeitler and Brooks; ILB Hightower

30. San Francisco
Needs: G, DL, S, WR, CB, RB, OLB
Coby Fleener, TE, Stanford
Fleener is like a WR (19.6 yards per catch), with TE size (6-6, 247, 4.51). Options: DTs Still and Derek Wolfe; WRs Hill and Wright, OGs Zeitler and Brooks.

31. New England
Needs: DE, OLB, S, WR, CB
Devon Still, DT, Penn State
Looks like a beast at times, a major disrupter in the backfield with his size (6-5, 303), speed (4.94) and quickness. Options: OGs Zeitler and Brooks; DT Derek Wolfe; DEs Jones and Branch; DE/OLB Perry.

32. N.Y. Giants
Needs: RB, OL, TE, LB, WR
Bobby Massie, OT, Mississippi
Quick enough to get in front of pass rushers, and with his size (6-6, 325), once he locks on, opponents don’t usually break free. Options: TE Fleener, OT Mike Adams, RB Martin.
