NFL Mock Draft 6- 11/26/2009

1. Tampa Bay Buccaneers Ndumakong Suh DT, Nebraska
Suh is one of the biggest playmakers in college football. Tampa needs to get back to their roots and restrengthen their defensive front. Freeman looks to be at least decent.

2. St. Louis Rams Jimmy Clausen QB, Notre Dame
Getting punched in the face could push Jimmy towards declaring for the draft this spring. The Rams have passed up a QB the past few years in the draft, and Bulger's hurt again. Only time will tell about the Rams' qb situation.

3. Cleveland Browns Jake Locker QB, Washington
Brady Quinn had a career day last Sunday...it was against the Lions' defense. So who knows what the Browns plan to do with Brady, but it's too early to tell. I'm assuming this past game was an abhoration and he isn't what he had potential to be...in Cleveland at least.

4. Detroit Lions Russell Okung OT, Oklahoma State
The Lions have a good start to their rebuilding, but they need to keep Stafford on his feet. He's gotten injured twice now and he's too important to their franchise now to become injury prone. Okung is the best tackle in this year's draft and he'll be able to start from day one.

5. Washington Redskins Eric Berry S, Tennessee
I think Dan Snyder will realize to take the best player in the draft here, even though Berry isn't exactly the biggest name in the draft.

6. Seattle Seahawks Gerald McCoy DT, Oklahoma
The Seahawks need some run defense. They could also go for a running back and maybe even QB.

7. Oakland Raiders Taylor Mays S, USC
Best forty time. Bingo! At least Mays won't be a major reach here, unlike Heyward-Bey last draft. Al Davis' team has quite a bit of talent, but are under achievers.

8. Kansas City Chiefs CJ Spiller RB, Clemson
Lost Larry Johnson (or got rid of), so naturally the Chiefs are in need of some backfield help. Charles may be ok, but he's just ok. Spiller is a big-time player, and will be a welcome sight for Todd Haley.

9. Buffalo Bills Trent Williams OT, Oklahoma
Buffalo needs offensive linemen. They also will need a quarterback because Edwards and Fitzpatrick are obviously not the answer. Their defense stepped up to face the Jags.

10. Tennessee Titans Joe Haden CB, Florida
What a comeback this team has made, that's Jeff Fisher for ya. Oh, and FYI...it's not Vince Young, it's Chris Johnson. As far as I'm concerned, Young is just a glorified Trent Dilfer.

11. San Francisco 49ers Bryan Bulaga OT, Iowa
The Niners might've found their qb in Alex Smith. Their starting tackles leave something to be desired.

12. New York Jets Dez Bryant WR, Oklahoma State
Sanchez needs a big play, favorite target. Bryant's stock won't be too affected by his suspension from this season.

13. Denver Broncos (from Bears) Rolando McClain LB, Alabama
Since the Broncos have turned to the 3-4, they'll need to continue to collect the right talent for their system.

14. San Francisco 49ers (from Panthers) Brandon Spikes LB, Florida
Imagine...Spikes, Patrick Willis, and Takeo Spikes in the same linebacking corp. That's pretty darn good. If Smith and Crabtree get a great combo going, with Gore on the ground, San Fran could surprise next year.

15. Miami Dolphins Brandon LaFell WR, LSU
Ted Ginn hasn't worked out as a receiver. Parcells may not take another chance on a WR in the first round, but I think he can make an exception for LaFell.

16. Houston Texans Trevard Lindley CB, Kentucky
Houston just can't win the big games. They couldn't stop Vince on 3rd down. They couldn't do diddly-poo. They need defense.

17. Baltimore Ravens Sean Weatherspoon LB, Missouri
Ray Lewis is getting older and older. I think it's time to bring in their linebacker for the future. Ray Lewis is the qb of their defense. They'll be big shoes to fill though.

18. Atlanta Falcons Greg Hardy DE, Mississippi
Hardy has some injury issues and is out for the rest of this season. The Falcons definitely need help on defense. Ryan will have this team in the playoff hunt each and every year if they can get the defense squared away.

19. Pittsburgh Steelers Mike Iupati OG, Idaho
Not much the Steelers need. Year in and year out they are in the hunt, although this year is a little bit of a disappointment. I don't think they'll miss the playoffs, never count out Big Ben.

20. Philadelphia Eagles Sean Lee LB, Penn State
I think the Eagles' window may be closing. If McCoy can produce the way Westbrook used to, they can probably hold on for a year or two more.

21. New York Giants Carlos Dunlap DE, Florida
Not much the Giants need. They could go with the big upside of Dunlap here.

22. Jacksonville Jaguars Morgan Burnett S, Georgia Tech
Jacksonville needs pass defense...desperately. If only they could get a pass rush.

23. Green Bay Packers Charles Brown OT, USE
Aaron Rodgers really needs protection. He may hold on to the ball more than he should, but the tackle position defenitely needs an upgrade.

24. Seattle Seahawks (from Broncos) Jahvid Best RB, California
Seattle needs a running back pretty badly. Forsett has done well, but he's not a number one back. Hopefully he recovers fully from his injuries.

25. San Diego Chargers Bruce Campbell OT, Maryland
San Diego's running game is gradually getting better, but they still need tons of help. The offensive line is to blame for its lowly year.

26. New England Patriots Jared Odrick DT, Penn State
Aging defense needs help. They're still winning, but they need to continue to replenish.

27. Dallas Cowboys Brandon Graham DE, Michigan
Defensive line is one of the Cowboys' priorities heading into this next offseason it looks like. They're not getting many sacks.

28. Cincinnati Bengals Terrence Cody, DT Alabama
Cincy's defense could become a dominant force if they get Cody here. This could be their year if they put it all together, hopefully LJ helps and doesn't distract.Kudos to Marvin Lewis for turning this team around.

29. Arizona Cardinals Adam Ulatoski OT, Texas
They need tackle help. Levi Jones and Gandy aren't doing as well as they could be. A better offensive line could help their running game out lots.

30. Minnesota Vikings Corey Wooton DE, Northwestern
They've got a great defensive line, Taking Wooton would give them a great DE for Allen to show all the little nuances and tricks.

31. Indianapolis Colts Arthur Jones DT, Syracuse
Colts really need help to clog up their middle of that defensive line. Wonder if they'll ever realize they need a decent defensive tackle?

32. New Orleans Saints Eric Norwood LB, South Carolina
Nothing much that this team needs. It seems like they're getting tested now. Their games are getting closer and closer. They're getting battle tested for the playoffs though, which is good.
