Justin Wages Mock Draft


Let’s cut straight to the chase, here is my First Round Mock Draft:

Colts: Andrew Luck (QB, Stanford) Do I Need an Explanation?

Deadskins: Robert Griffin III (QB, Baylor) Do I?

Vikings: Justin Blackmon (WR, Oklahoma State) A WR for developing QB Christian Ponder is a GREAT Idea.

Browns: Trent Richardson (HB, Alabama) Goodbye Hillis, but HELLLLOOOO Richardson.

Buccaneers: Morris Claiborne (DB, LSU) The Bucs have almost no secondary, enough said.

Rams: Matt Kalil (OL, USC) Strengthening the OL doesn’t seem like a bad idea.

Jaguars: Melvin Ingram (DE, South Carolina) The Jaguars have never really had the pass rush they’ve wanted. Ingram=Answer.

Dolphins: Ryan Tannehill (QB, Texas A&M) No Brainer.

Panthers: Michael Floyd (WR, Notre Dame) Another big target for Cam Newton will mean that Carolina WILL be good this year.

Bills: Riley Reiff (OT, Iowa) Beefin’ up that Offensive Line.

Chiefs: Dontari Poe (DT, Memphis) The Chiefs, like the Jags, don’t have an elite pass rush. Poe could bring that to an end.

Seahawks: Quinton Coples (DE, UNC) Coples is the outside rush that Seattle needs to keep up with San Francisco.

Cardinals: David DeCastro (OL, Stanford) Protect the QB. Arizona failed last year.

COWBOYS: Mark Barron (DB, Alabama) We NEED a Safety to help on the deep passes we got burned on last year.

Shegals: Fletcher Cox (DT, Miss. State) The Shegals have the secondary but need a bit more Rush, Tom Sawyer anyone?

Jets: Luke Kuechly (LB, Boston College) How do you pronounce that name? Who cares? It fills the Jets opening void at LB.

Bengals: Cordy Glenn (OT, Georgia) Focus on OL for your 1st pick here, OL is goin’ fast and Cincinnati has another pick.

Chargers: Dre Kirkpatrick (DB, Alabama) Take some work off of Weddle, he can’t do everything… or can he?

Bears: Courtney Upshaw (DE, Alabama) The Bears offense is good, their pass rush, like many other teams, needs to be improved.

Titans: Stephon Gilmore (DB, South Carolina) How many more do I have to explain??? Courtland Finnegan…

Bengals: Kendall Wright (WR, Baylor) Another big target for Andy Dalton, also takes some pressure off of A.J. Green.

Browns: Brandon Weeden (QB, Oklahoma State) Elder backup for Colt McCoy. Possible starter of the near future?

Lions: Jonathan Martin (OL, Stanford) Gives Stafford more time to throw to Madden 13 cover athlete Calvin Johnson.

Steelers: Joe Adams (WR, Arkansas) Hines Ward is gone, meet his replacement.

Broncos: Brandon Thompson (DT, Clemson) This guy could be double teamed, opens up holes for Von Miller and Co

Texans: Stephen Hill (WR, Georgia Tech) Andre Johnson’s injury wasn’t what crippled the season, but they need another WR.

Patriots: Jared Crick (DE, Nebraska) D-Line getting old (And Fat).

Packers: Dont’a Hightower (LB, Alabama) Hightower would be an awesome complement to Hawk and Matthews.

Ravens: Shea McClellin (LB, Boise State) Ray Lewis is almost out of gas…

49ers: Janoris Jenkins (DB, Northern Alabama) Stellar Offense Amazing Defense, just a little more juice and they’re Superbowl bound.

Patriots: Michael Brockers (DT, LSU) Best remaining player slipping through the cracks to back up a fat guy, nice…

Giants: LaMichael James (HB, Oregon) Loss of Brandon Jacobs makes the need for having the 1-2 punch with Bradshaw back.
