-   Kansas City Chiefs: Latavius Murray, RB, Central Florida Kansas City Chiefs: Latavius Murray, RB, Central Florida  
 The Chiefs lost Peyton Hillis, so they need a power back to complement Jamaal Charles.

-   Jacksonville Jaguars:  Kevin Reddick, LB, North Carolina Jacksonville Jaguars:  Kevin Reddick, LB, North Carolina  
 The Jaguars have a pretty lackluster linebacking corps, as Russell Allen and Geno Hayes currently surround Paul Posluszny.
 
 
-   Philadelphia Eagles: Brandon McGee, CB, Miami Philadelphia Eagles: Brandon McGee, CB, Miami  
 It wouldn't surprise me to see the Eagles add a corner in Rounds 3-5 despite signing Bradley Fletcher and Cary Williams. Neither is a No. 1 corner, so Philadelphia may want someone who can develop into one.
 
 
-   Detroit Lions: Michael Williams, TE, Alabama Detroit Lions: Michael Williams, TE, Alabama  
 The Lions are looking for another tight end after losing Will Heller this offseason.
 
 Pick change; previously William Gholston, DE/DT
 
 
 
 
-   Seattle Seahawks: Everett Dawkins, DT, Florida State Seattle Seahawks: Everett Dawkins, DT, Florida State  
 Seattle's greatest priority going into this offseason was finding more pass-rushers. They added Michael Bennett and Cliff Avril, but they could still use an interior presence.
 
 
-   Cleveland Browns:  Kenny Stills, WR, Oklahoma Cleveland Browns:  Kenny Stills, WR, Oklahoma  
 Josh Gordon improved as the 2012 season went along, but the Browns need another receiver to go along with the inconsistent Greg Little.
 
 
-   Arizona Cardinals: David Bass, DE/OLB, Missouri Western Arizona Cardinals: David Bass, DE/OLB, Missouri Western  
 If the Cardinals can't land Dion Jordan or Ezekiel Ansah at No. 7, they'll have to find someone else later in the draft to compete for the starting job across from Sam Acho.
 
 
-   New York Jets: Zac Dysert, QB, Miami of Ohio New York Jets: Zac Dysert, QB, Miami of Ohio  
 The Jets have to draft a quarterback at some point, and it looks like it's going to be Zac Dysert. New York has shown a ridiculous amount of interest in him.
 
 
-   Tennessee Titans: Zac Stacy, RB, Vanderbilt Tennessee Titans: Zac Stacy, RB, Vanderbilt  
 Tennessee may spend a late-round pick on a running back. Someone to challenge Shonn Greene for the No. 2 job wouldn't hurt.
 
 
-   Buffalo Bills: Lavar Edwards, DE, LSU Buffalo Bills: Lavar Edwards, DE, LSU  
 The Bills spent tons of money on Mario Williams and Mark Anderson last offseason, but while the former picked up his play after the bye, the latter was dreadful whenever he was on the field. Buffalo needs to put as much pressure on the quarterback if it wants to unseat the Patriots in the division.
 
 
-   New Orleans Saints:  Chris Faulk, OT/G, LSU New Orleans Saints:  Chris Faulk, OT/G, LSU  
 The Saints have to find tackle help at some point. They've shown interest in local product Chris Faulk.
 
 
-   San Diego Chargers: Marc Anthony, CB, California San Diego Chargers: Marc Anthony, CB, California  
 Quentin Jammer and Antoine Cason are no longer on the roster. The Chargers signed Derek Cox, but they need another corner.
 
 
 
 
-   Miami Dolphins:  Joseph Randle, RB, Oklahoma State Miami Dolphins:  Joseph Randle, RB, Oklahoma State  
 The Dolphins don't seem to like Daniel Thomas very much, so they may consider a mid-round complement for Lamar Miller.
 
 
-   Tampa Bay Buccaneers: A.J. Klein, ILB, Iowa State Tampa Bay Buccaneers: A.J. Klein, ILB, Iowa State  
 In addition to fixing their defensive line and cornerback corps, the Buccaneers have to do something about their linebacking situation. They should look into drafting a middle linebacker and moving Mason Foster outside.
 
 
-   Carolina Panthers: Akeem Spence, DT, Illinois Carolina Panthers: Akeem Spence, DT, Illinois  
 Though they have limited picks, it wouldn't surprise me if the Panthers doubled up on defensive tackles because that area is so incredibly weak.
 
 
-   St. Louis Rams: Ace Sanders, WR, South Carolina St. Louis Rams: Ace Sanders, WR, South Carolina  
 The Rams will probably draft two receivers this weekend because they don't have anyone beyond Brian Quick, Chris Givens and Austin Pettis.
 
 Pick change; previously Oday Aboushi, G/OT
 
 
-   Pittsburgh Steelers: Josh Boyce, WR, TCU Pittsburgh Steelers: Josh Boyce, WR, TCU  
 Here is some much-needed help for Ben Roethlisberger. The Steelers need a new wideout after losing Mike Wallace.
 
 
-   Dallas Cowboys: Jordan Hill, DT, Penn State Dallas Cowboys: Jordan Hill, DT, Penn State  
 Here's some more defensive line help for the Cowboys, as they transition into their new 4-3 scheme.
 
 
-   New York Giants: Jawan Jamison, RB, Rutgers New York Giants: Jawan Jamison, RB, Rutgers  
 The Giants are set at running back right now with David Wilson and Andre Brown, but the latter will be a free agent next spring.
 
 
-   Chicago Bears: Reid Fragel, OT, Ohio State Chicago Bears: Reid Fragel, OT, Ohio State  
 Here's another offensive lineman for the Bears. They clearly aren't too pleased with J'Marcus Webb, so they may want to bring in some competition for him.
 
 
 
 
-   Washington Redskins: Cobi Hamilton, WR, Arkansas Washington Redskins: Cobi Hamilton, WR, Arkansas  
 The Redskins have to fix their secondary, but something else they should do is find some help at receiver. I think they'll do that if they get good value.
 
 
-   Minnesota Vikings: Will Davis, CB, Utah State Minnesota Vikings: Will Davis, CB, Utah State  
 Minnesota has a couple of cornerbacks (Chris Cook, A.J. Jefferson) with expiring contracts next spring, so it may draft two players at the position.
 
 Pick change; previously Alvin Bailey, G
 
 
-   Cincinnati Bengals: Chase Thomas, DE/OLB, Stanford Cincinnati Bengals: Chase Thomas, DE/OLB, Stanford  
 The Bengals need some competition at strongside linebacker in the wake of losing Manny Lawson to the Bills.
 
 
-   San Francisco 49ers: Walter Stewart, DE/OLB, Cincinnati San Francisco 49ers: Walter Stewart, DE/OLB, Cincinnati  
 The 49ers are all about drafting high-upside players and redshirting them until they're ready to play. They could do that with Walter Stewart, who would be a second-round prospect if it weren't for his injury concerns.
 
 
 
 
-   Seattle Seahawks: Alvin Bailey, G/OT, Arkansas Seattle Seahawks: Alvin Bailey, G/OT, Arkansas  
 The Seahawks need some help on the right side of their offensive line. Both guard and tackle need to be upgraded.
 
 
-   Green Bay Packers: Kwame Geathers, NT, Georgia Green Bay Packers: Kwame Geathers, NT, Georgia  
 Kwame Geathers doesn't fill an immediate need, but he would help with depth right away. More importantly, he'd provide the Packers with a successor for Ryan Pickett and insurance just in case they can't retain B.J. Raji, who will be a free agent next spring.
 
 
-   Houston Texans:  Oday Aboushi, G/OT, Virginia Houston Texans:  Oday Aboushi, G/OT, Virginia  
 The Texans want to bolster their offensive line this offseason. They're very thin at tackle.
 
 Pick change; previously Tavarres King, WR
 
 
-   Denver Broncos: Devonte Holloman, OLB, South Carolina Denver Broncos: Devonte Holloman, OLB, South Carolina  
 The Broncos don't have the greatest depth at linebacker, so a late-round pick could be used to bolster this area.
 
 
-   Washington Redskins: Rod Sweeting, CB, Georgia Tech Washington Redskins: Rod Sweeting, CB, Georgia Tech  
 With so many cornerbacks heading for free agency next spring, the Redskins may double up on the position.
 
 
-   Atlanta Falcons:  Tavarres King, WR, Georgia Atlanta Falcons:  Tavarres King, WR, Georgia  
 The Falcons have absolutely zero depth at receiver. They need some help with that, as well as a potential successor for Roddy White.
 
 Pick change; previously Stansly Maponga, DE/OLB
 
 
-   Cleveland Browns: Brian Winters, G, Kent State Cleveland Browns: Brian Winters, G, Kent State  
 If the Browns trade down from No. 6, they may target Chance Warmack or Jonathan Cooper because they have a big hole at left guard. If they don't land either, they'll have to address that need later on.
 
 
-   Baltimore Ravens: Montori Hughes, NT, Tennessee-Martin Baltimore Ravens: Montori Hughes, NT, Tennessee-Martin  
 The Ravens signed Chris Canty and Marcus Spears, but both are 30-plus. Considering that, as well as Arthur Jones' impending free agency next spring, Ozzie Newsome may want to draft a defensive lineman in the middle rounds.
 
 
-   Miami Dolphins:  Dion Sims, TE, Michigan State Miami Dolphins:  Dion Sims, TE, Michigan State  
 The Dolphins want to draft a tight end early in an ideal world, but that wasn't possible in this mock. Using a mid-rounder on someone like Dion Sims is an alternative.
 
 
-   Green Bay Packers:  Brandon Jenkins, DE/OLB, Florida State Green Bay Packers:  Brandon Jenkins, DE/OLB, Florida State  
 Before Erik Walden left, I wrote that the Packers need to make sure Walden wouldn't be on the field next year. It's strange that the Colts paid him so much money.
 
 
-   Baltimore Ravens: Nico Johnson, ILB, Alabama Baltimore Ravens: Nico Johnson, ILB, Alabama  
 The Ravens lost Ray Lewis to retirement and Dannell Ellerbe to the Dolphins this offseason. They're obviously desperate for inside linebacker help.
