2014 NFL Mock Draft: Round 1 - Picks 17-32

Last update: Wednesday, May 22, 2013. Major changes in both rounds.
Next update: Next week. Follow me @walterfootball for updates.

The order of this 2014 NFL Mock Draft is based on my NFL Power Rankings.

*** THIS IS A LIVE 2014 NFL MOCK DRAFT. PICKS ARE BEING POSTED NOW. TO SEE PREVIOUS VERSIONS, CHECK OUT THE ARCHIVED 2014 NFL MOCK DRAFT SECTION. FOLLOW @walterfootball FOR UPDATES ***

Minnesota Vikings: A.J. McCarron, QB, Alabama

The Vikings didn't find a young quarterback this offseason because they didn't want to hurt Christian Ponder's confidence. However, if Ponder stinks again, Minnesota may look into drafting a young signal-caller.

I had A.J. McCarron in the second round of my previous update, but I'm hearing he belongs way earlier. I still want to see him have another strong campaign, but as it stands now, he could be chosen as high as the top 10.

Follow @walterfootball for updates.

St. Louis Rams: James Hurst, OT, North Carolina

The Rams signed Jake Long, which will move Rodger Saffold to right tackle. For the time being anyway. There's some speculation that St. Louis could trade Saffold. Regardless, Saffold will be a free agent in March 2014.

Chicago Bears: Cyrus Kouandjio, OT, Alabama

The Bears signed Jermon Bushrod this offseason to be Jay Cutler's new left tackle. Cutler may not like the results if Bushrod plays like he did in New Orleans. Even if Bushrod shows well, Chicago will need help at right tackle, given that J'Marcus Webb will be a free agent next spring.

St. Louis Rams: Anthony Johnson, DT, LSU

The Rams spent a first-round pick on a defensive tackle in 2012, but they could do so again sometime soon. Kendall Langford, signed to a 4-year, $24 million contract last offseason, has been a disappointment. He won't be around much longer at his high salary if he continues to struggle.

Cincinnati Bengals: Aaron Lynch, DE, South Florida

The Bengals just drafted Margus Hunt, but they have Carlos Dunlap and Michael Johnson hitting free agency soon. They'll probably be able to retain just one of the two.

Pick change; previously Haha Clinton-Dix, S

Miami Dolphins: Louis Nix, DT, Notre Dame

The Dolphins were reportedly looking closely at defensive tackle prospects in the 2013 NFL Draft because both Randy Starks and Paul Soliai have expiring contracts this upcoming March.

Louis Nix would fill Soliai's void, as Miami continues to add 3-4 personnel.

New York Giants: Scott Chrichton, DE, Oregon State

Jerry Reese is a big fan of having tons of pass-rushers on his roster. He'll have to bolster the group next offseason if he can't re-sign free agent-to-be Justin Tuck.

Pick change; previously Aaron Lynch, DE

Atlanta Falcons: Will Sutton, DE/DT, Arizona State

The Falcons didn't address defensive tackle even though they have a hole there next to Jonathan Babineaux. Peria Jerry will be given one more chance to prove himself.

Will Sutton can line up both inside and outside to create tons of pressure on the quarterback. He'll be useful to have against Drew Brees and Cam Newton.

Houston Texans: Ifo Ekpre-Olomu, CB, Oregon

The Texans could use a cornerback for depth, but the primary need for one at this juncture would be for the future. Kareem Jackson will be a free agent in March 2015, so Loucheiz Purifoy would be able to sit behind him for a year before stepping in as a starter. Some of the guys on the forum complained about my habit of looking at contract dates in my mock drafts, but the Texans' sole purpose for selecting Whitney Mercilus a year ago was because they knew Connor Barwin would leave.

Ifo Ekpre-Olomu, a third-team All-American, intercepted four passes and had 16 pass break-ups as a sophomore.

Baltimore Ravens: Kyle Van Noy, DE/OLB, BYU

Rush linebacker is not an immediate need, but Terrell Suggs will be entering his contract year in 2014. What if he slows down at 31? What if Courtney Upshaw and John Simon don't develop?

Ozzie Newsome lands the best player available. I wanted to slot Kyle Van Noy around the 16th pick, but couldn't find a spot for him. Van Noy logged 13 sacks in 2012. He was espcially hot down the stretch, recording 5.5 sacks in his final three games.

New Orleans Saints: Adrian Hubbard, DE/OLB, Alabama

The Saints had several holes to fill in the 2013 NFL Draft, so they weren't able to obtain a pass-rusher until the sixth round with Rufus Johnson. They'll probably need to do so earlier next April.

Green Bay Packers: A.J. Johnson, ILB, Tennessee

The Packers probably won't need to address the inside linebacker next offseason, but Ted Thompson likes to think ahead. Both Desmond Bishop and A.J. Hawk will have expiring contracts in the near future. It's likely that one of them will leave sometime soon.

New England Patriots: Trent Murphy, DE/OLB, Stanford

The Patriots could use another pass-rusher to help them deal with Peyton Manning and Joe Flacco. Trent Murphy has the size that Bill Belichick likes in his defensive linemen.

Pick change; previously Daniel McCullers, NT

San Francisco 49ers: Justin Gilbert, CB, Oklahoma State

The 49ers can afford to take one of the best players available on the board with this pick because they have fewer needs than most teams. They could stand to find help at cornerback, especially given that as a 33-year-old, Carlos Rogers will be due more than $6 million. Also keep in mind that Nnamdi Asomugha and Tarell Brown have expiring contracts next March.

Denver Broncos: HaHa Clinton-Dix, S, Alabama

Considering what happened at the end of the Baltimore game, it was shocking to see the Broncos fail to address the safety position in the 2013 NFL Draft. Something tells me they'll regret that.

Haha Clinton-Dix, named after what happened in the Monica Lewinsky scandal, has two brothers who are also promising prospects, Lol and Lmfao.

Pick change; previously Scott Chrichton, DE/OLB

Seattle Seahawks: Antonio Richardson, OT, Tennessee

The Seahawks have a big void at the right tackle position. Breno Giacomini was constantly abused this past season.

Pick change; previously Trent Murphy, DE/OLB

why in the hell would the jags take Manziel whos closer to a late 1st round pick instead of taking the obvious Pick of Clowney. Clowney is the safest pick in the draft barring freak injuries in the NFL. in the 2nd round they can get a qb who is still better than Gabbert and Pick up a Franchise Quality Pass rusher for a team who hasnt really had one.

No way raiders pass on clowney, Tyler Wilson will be the man

HNR 05-17-2013 08:04 pm xxx.xxx.xxx.167 (total posts: 1)

If Oakland ends up at the #1 pick I cant see the Raiders passing on Clowney. Clowney is a cant miss prospect. I am a fan of Bridgewater but Clowney is the better choice with the #1 pick. If anything Aaron Murray or Logan Thomas in the 2nd round with combined with Clowney would be much prefered in the scenario. I understand where you are coming from though.

NO NO NO AJ McCarron is CRAP replace him for the vikings and put Marcus mariota

NO WAY THE BILLS WILL BE PICKING NMBR 3 NEXT YEAR TO MUCH TALENT ON THAT TEAM,NOT SAYING PLAYOFFS BUT 8 AND 8 OR 9 AND 7 REALISTIC.

I've been checking this mock drafts for years, and I just wonna say thank you for whoever does this!

sigh...every Bengals fan complained about your "cop-out" picks for the Bengals this year, saying the wouldn't be able to keep MJ or Smith. You were wrong on both counts. Now the Bengals have nearly $22 million to roll over to next year, just took a DE in the 2nd round this year, and you have them doing the exact same next year?

Eagles Fan 05-16-2013 01:28 am xxx.xxx.xxx.130 (total posts: 6)

This one I actually like. Roby and Thomas would be a great 1-2. Id also like other picks like Lee, Taylor, or Van Noy as well.

Eagles Fan 05-16-2013 01:22 am xxx.xxx.xxx.130 (total posts: 6)

Not to knock your fine evaluations or anything like that, but you guys do realize that atlanta drafted a TE in the 4th round a few weeks ago right ?? No reason to get another one in the 2nd next year.. just saying.

Erik 05-16-2013 12:04 am xxx.xxx.xxx2.49 (total posts: 2)

Walt,
Tajh Boyd has inflated numbers in a pansy league, the ACC. Have you seen how he looked against Clowney? I've been watching Clowney on YouTube and I hope Oakland takes that QB, so my Jags can grab j.Clowney , screw Manziel- we can get a serviceable qb, this kid if he chooses to is unblockable ....

Voice of Reason 05-15-2013 11:23 pm xxx.xxx.xxx81.8 (total posts: 1)

If the Lions are picking at 12, the "Martin Mayhew is not one to attack holes on his roster" comment is voided because he will not be making the pick.

Steelers Fan 05-15-2013 10:42 pm xxx.xxx.xxx8.45 (total posts: 1)

I hope the Steelers draft either CJ Mosley or AJ Johnson next year. They need a young BUCK linebacker to play alongside Timmons.

matt flynn will probably be beat out by wilson, just like last year. wonder if he gets along well with guys named wilson.
