Player, Position, School | Comments | ||
1.1 |
|
Cam Newton QB - Auburn | No real surprise here. | ||
1.2 | Von Miller LB - Texas A&M | Al Wilson's heir apparent. EFX got their guy. Miller is an intelligent player and the next leader on Defense for the Broncos. | |||
1.3 | Marcell Dareus DT - Alabama | A great fit for Buffalo's 3-4 alignment. | |||
1.4 | A.J. Green WR - Georgia | The Bengals get a great WR that may placate Carson Palmer and take over for aging Ochocinco | |||
1.5 | Patrick Peterson CB -LSU | The consensus top Corner in the Draft improves the Defensive Backfield for Arizona. | |||
1.6 |
TRADE Julio Jones WR - Alabama |
Atlanta gave away 2nd & 4th round picks in 2011 & 2012 to move up here and the Cleveland Browns load up on picks. | |||
1.7 | Aldon Smith DE - Missouri | Surprisingly, the 49ers ignore their need at QB, but add some pass rushing ability | |||
1.8 | Jake Locker QB - Washington | Tennessee passes on Fairley to select a replacement and upgrade to Vince Young | |||
1.9 | Tyron Smith OT - USC | Dallas makes a good move to protect the fragile Tony Romo. | |||
1.10 |
Trade Blaine Gabbert QB - Missouri |
Washington gets two 2nd-round picks and the Jaguars get a spread QB. | |||
1.11 | J.J. Watt DE - Wisconsin | Gary Kubiak gets a strong edge rusher to balance Mario Williams. Great addition. | |||
1.12 | Christian Ponder QB - Florida St. | Surprise! The Vikes needed a QB and Ponder is a WEst Coast type with an average arm. |
