  1. Jacksonville Jaguars: Kyle Juszczyk, FB, Harvard
    Maurice Jones-Drew made it known how upset he was when the Texans signed Greg Jones. Hopefully Jacksonville brings in another fullback to appease MJD.

    Pick change; previously Hugh Thornton, G

  2. Kansas City Chiefs: Devin Taylor, DE/OLB, South Carolina
    The Chiefs like Dion Jordan, but won't take him No. 1 overall. Maybe they'll take another pass-rusher later.

    Pick change; previously Ace Sanders, WR

  3. Detroit Lions: Michael Williams, TE, Alabama
    The Lions are looking for another tight end after losing Will Heller this offseason.

    Pick change; previously Tavarres King, WR

  4. Oakland Raiders: Kenjon Barner, RB, Oregon
    The newly signed Rashad Jennings is the only legitimate option behind the injury-prone Darren McFadden. Something must be done about this.



  5. San Francisco 49ers: Gerald Hodges, LB, Penn State
    The 49ers have two stud inside linebackers, but they're lacking for depth behind them.

    Pick change; previously Chris Faulk, OT/G

  6. Arizona Cardinals: Knile Davis, RB, Arkansas
    The Cardinals don't have a proven running back on their roster, so they may spend a mid-round pick on a possible upgrade.

  7. Cleveland Browns: Nick Kasa, TE, Colorado
    The Browns signed Kellen Davis and Gary Barnidge, but that won't prevent them from drafting a tight end in the middle rounds.

  8. Oakland Raiders: Ricky Wagner, OT, Wisconsin
    The Raiders are so desperate for tackle help that they signed the lethargic Alex Barron this offseason. They'll need someone to push Khalif Barnes.

  9. Buffalo Bills: Omoregie Uzzi, G, Georgia Tech
    There's some speculation that the Bills will take a guard at No. 8 overall, but it's more likely that they'll spend a mid-rounder on finding Andy Levitre's replacement.

  10. New York Jets: J.C. Tretter, G, Cornell
    The Jets have to draft an interior offensive lineman. Some depth is needed, and it wouldn't hurt to have someone challenge Vladimir Ducasse.

    Pick change; previously Devin Taylor, DE

  11. San Diego Chargers: Earl Watford, G, James Madison
    The Chargers need multiple upgrades on the offensive line. Interior help is needed in addition to two new tackles.

  12. San Francisco 49ers: Quinton Dial, DE/DT, Alabama
    Even if they spend an early pick on a five-technique defensive lineman, the 49ers will still be pretty thin at that position.



  13. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Landry Jones, QB, Oklahoma
    It was recently reported that Greg Schiano is not a big Josh Freeman fan. The Buccaneers are expected to use a Round 2-6 pick on a quarterback.

    Pick change; previously Sean Renfree, QB

  14. Carolina Panthers: Zeke Motta, S, Notre Dame
    The safety position is an area Carolina desperately needs to address. As I've joked frequently, Hiro Nakamura could stop time. Haruki Nakamura couldn't stop anyone.

    Pick change; previously Kayvon Webster, CB

  15. New Orleans Saints: Michael Mauti, ILB, Penn State
    The Saints need to continue adding personnel for their new 3-4. They're pretty thin at linebacker.

  16. St. Louis Rams: Terry Hawthorne, CB, Illinois
    The Rams have three quality cornerbacks, but they have just three corners on their roster. That's an issue.

    Pick change; previously Gerald Hodges, OLB

  17. Dallas Cowboys: Conner Vernon, WR, Duke
    Miles Austin-Jones will be back next year, but he may not be around much longer after that. The Cowboys will have to find a long-term solution across from Dez Bryant.

  18. Pittsburgh Steelers: Malliciah Goodman, DE/DT, Clemson
    The Steelers have shown interest in Malliciah Goodman, who could add some depth to a very thin defensive end group.

  19. New York Giants: Quanterus Smith, DE, Western Kentucky
    With Justin Tuck heading for free agency next spring, the Giants may double up on defensive ends in the 2013 NFL Draft.

    Pick change; previously Jawan Jamison, RB

  20. Chicago Bears: Nick Williams, DE/DT, Samford
    The Bears are pretty thin on the interior of the defensive front. A late-round depth pick will have to be made.



  21. Minnesota Vikings: Mike Catapano, DE, Princeton
    The Vikings need to prepare for the future. Both Jared Allen and Brian Robison will be free agents after the 2013 season, and it'll be difficult to keep them both.

    Pick change; previously Zeke Motta, S

  22. Cincinnati Bengals: Robert Lester, S, Alabama
    It wouldn't be a surprise to see the Bengals double up at safety to really solidify the position.

  23. Washington Redskins: Travis Long, DE/OLB, Washington State
    The Redskins lost Lorenzo Alexander to the Cardinals, so they may want to add to their outside linebacker depth.

  24. Indianapolis Colts: Luke Marquardt, OT, Azusa Pacific
    The Lions signed Gosder Cherilus to be their new right tackle, but they'd be crazy if they didn't find someone to push him.

    Pick change; previously Edmund Kugbila, G



  25. Green Bay Packers: Chris Gragg, TE, Arkansas
    Jermichael Finley will be back in 2013, but he'll be a free agent after the season. The Packers will need a contingency plan at tight end.

  26. Seattle Seahawks: Jordan Mills, OT, Louisiana Tech
    Breno Giacomini was absolutely embarrassed in the season finale by Chris Long. Granted, Long has made so many right tackles look bad this year, but Giacomini has struggled in pass protection for most of the season.

  27. Houston Texans: Vince Williams, ILB, Florida State
    The Texans will be looking for multiple inside linebackers in the draft because they have no depth there.

    Pick change; previously Terry Hawthorne, CB

  28. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Joseph Fauria, TE, UCLA
    As I've said a bunch of times, Charlie Campbell (@DraftCampbell) has informed me that the Buccaneers will be targeting a tight end in the 2013 NFL Draft. Dallas Clark is a worn-down free agent, while Luke Stocker has been a disappointment thus far. Josh Freeman needs a consistent intermediate target.

  29. Cincinnati Bengals: Josh Boyd, DE/DT, Mississippi State
    The Bengals lost Pat Sims in free agency this offseason, so they may want to bring in a new defensive tackle.

  30. Atlanta Falcons: Ace Sanders, WR, South Carolina
    The Falcons have absolutely zero depth at receiver. They need some help with that, as well as a potential successor for Roddy White.

  31. Baltimore Ravens: Stepfon Jefferson, RB, Nevada
    Baltimore doesn't really need another running back, but with so many draft picks, why not? The Ravens would have a nice one-two punch with Bernard Pierce and Stepfon Jefferson in the event of a Ray Rice injury.

  32. Baltimore Ravens: Keith Pough, ILB, Howard
    Considering their depth issues at inside linebacker, the Ravens may spend two draft picks on the position.

  33. Houston Texans: Jason Weaver, OT, Southern Miss
    The Texans want to bolster their offensive line this offseason. They're very thin at tackle.

  34. Tennessee Titans: Zach Rogers, WR, Tennessee
    The Titans are apparently going to part ways with Nate Washington soon, so here's some receiver help.

  35. Baltimore Ravens: Tommy Bohanon, FB, Wake Forest
    The Ravens may bring in someone to compete with Vonta Leach. The incumbent fullback is an impending free agent and is due $3 million in 2013.

  36. Kansas City Chiefs: John Boyett, S, Oregon
    The Chiefs could stand to add some depth in their secondary.

    Pick change; previously Xavier Nixon, OT

  37. Oakland Raiders: Michael Buchanan, DE/OLB, Illinois
    The Raiders saw Michael Buchanan at the Senior Bowl, so they may bring him in to help bolster their pathetic pass rush.

  38. Pittsburgh Steelers: Denard Robinson, RB/WR/KR, Michigan
    Rashard Mendenhall won't be back next year and Jonathan Dwyer isn't viewed as a starter per reports, so the Steelers will need to find a new running back.
