  1. Kansas City Chiefs: DeAndre Hopkins, WR, Clemson
    Kansas City’s new quarterback will need a new receiver if Dwayne Bowe leaves. I wouldn’t spend the money on Bowe; he’s overrated because he’s inconsistent and piles up most of his stats in garbage time. He was responsible for both of Matt Cassel’s interceptions against the Ravens.

    By the way, I’m slotting DeAndre Hopkins into this mock and kicking Robert Woods out. Woods’ stock has dropped so much that he may decide to come back for another year.

    Pick change; previously Cordarrelle Patterson, WR

  2. Jacksonville Jaguars: Tyler Wilson, QB, Arkansas
    Regardless of whether Gene Smith is fired or not – it’ll be shocking if he keeps his job – the Jaguars will spend one of their first two picks on a quarterback. Blaine Gabbert is done starting for Jacksonville. He’s absolutely terrible.

  3. Philadelphia Eagles: Kawann Short, DT, Purdue
    Even if Cullen Jenkins is back next year – he’s due a $1 million roster bonus in March – it’ll likely be his last season in Philadelphia because he’s set to make $4.5 million (with a $2 million roster bonus) in 2014. The Eagles will need someone to play alongside Fletcher Cox.

    Pick change; previously Eric Reid, S



  4. Carolina Panthers: Xavier Rhodes, CB, Florida State
    The Panthers will need some cornerback help this offseason. Captain Munnerlyn will be a free agent, while rookie Josh Norman has yet to prove that he can be a quality starter in the NFL.

    Pick change; previously Matt Elam, S

  5. Cincinnati Bengals: Giovani Bernard, RB, North Carolina
    BenJarvus Green-Ellis has fumbled several times this year, which is terrible news for him because ball security was his only positive trait. One of the Bengals’ top priorities is finding a capable running back.

  6. San Diego Chargers: Dallas Thomas, OT/G, Tennessee
    There’s no explanation needed here if you’ve watched various teams pummel Philip Rivers the entire season. The Chargers must do something about the tackle position.

    Pick change; previously Alex Okafor, DE/OLB

  7. New York Jets: D.J. Fluker, OT, Alabama
    The Jets have dire issues at right tackle that need to be addressed. Mark Sanchez stinks, but he doesn’t even have a chance with Austin Howard blocking for him.

    Pick change; previously Dallas Thomas, OT

  8. Tennessee Titans: Jordan Poyer, CB, Oregon State
    Cornerback Alterraun Verner will be entering his contract year in 2013, so Tennessee will need a new starter if it can’t retain him. Besides, the Titans need to fix their 27th-ranked pass defense.

  9. Arizona Cardinals: Lane Johnson, OT, Oklahoma
    This is an obvious pick. The Cardinals drafted a quarterback in Round 1, so they cannot allow him to go through what Skelekolb has to endure right now. The offensive line absolutely must be addressed ASAP.

    Pick change; previously D.J. Fluker, OT

  10. Detroit Lions: Eric Reid, S, LSU
    It’s no secret that Detroit has major holes in its secondary. Amari Spievey desperately needs to be upgraded, while Louis Delmas can’t seem to stay healthy.

    Pick change; previously David Amerson, CB

  11. Buffalo Bills: Landry Jones, QB, Oklahoma
    Here’s the franchise quarterback that Buddy Nix was referring to. It’s a shame that the Bills are opting to address this position in such a weak class, but that’s the price they’re paying for drafting Aaron Williams over Andy Dalton and Colin Kaepernick in 2011.

    Pick change; previously E.J. Manuel, OT



  12. St. Louis Rams: Zach Ertz, TE, Stanford
    Here’s another weapon for Sam Bradford. The Rams don’t have anything at tight end, as Lance Kendricks has been a huge disappointment.

    Pick change; previously Barrett Jones, G/C/OT

  13. Washington Redskins: David Amerson, CB, N.C. State
    DeAngelo Hall, who has underperformed this year, is due $7.5 million in 2013, but none of it is guaranteed. The Redskins can easily cut him and move on. Regardless of whether they do this or not, they have to find some help at the cornerback position.

    Pick change; previously Xavier Rhodes, CB

  14. Dallas Cowboys: Corey Lemonier, DE/OLB, Auburn
    Anthony Spencer has played well when healthy this year, but he’ll be a free agent this March who will be difficult to retain. If he leaves, the Cowboys will have to find a worthy complement across from DeMarcus Ware.

    Pick change; previously Chase Thomas, DE/OLB

  15. Miami Dolphins: Cordarrelle Patterson, WR, Tennessee
    Brian Hartline is a starting-caliber wideout, but in the wake of his zero-catch performance against the Rams, it’s clear that he’s not a No. 1. The Dolphins need a top option for the struggling Ryan Tannehill.

    Pick change; previously Sylvester Williams, DT

  16. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Desmond Trufant, CB, Washington
    The Buccaneers don’t ever shy away from doubling up on positions. They may do so at cornerback, as this was a huge area of need even before the Aqib Talib trade.

  17. Minnesota Vikings: Sylvester Williams, DT, North Carolina
    The Vikings can address one of their biggest needs with arguably the best player available. Defensive tackle is a big issue right now; Kevin Williams will turn 33 in August, and there’s no one of note playing next to him. Letroy Guion is a decent rotational guy but should not be a starter.

    Pick change; previously Jesse Williams, NT

  18. Cincinnati Bengals: Shayne Skov, ILB, Stanford
    The Bengals have major problems at linebacker. They lost Keith Rivers this past offseason, Manny Lawson will be a free agent in the spring, and Rey Maualuga is arguably one of the worst defensive starters in the NFL. I don’t know if he’s hurt or what, but he’s been awful this season.



  19. Seattle Seahawks: Oday Aboushi, OT, Virginia
    The Seahawks have seemed to give up on former first-round pick James Carpenter as a right tackle. This means they’ll have to address this position in the offseason.

    Pick change; previously Da’Rick Rogers, WR

  20. Pittsburgh Steelers: T.J. McDonald, S, USC
    Troy Polamalu can’t seem to get healthy, while Ryan Clark, who just turned 33, will be entering his contract year. The Steelers need to get younger at safety.

  21. New York Giants: Khaseem Greene, LB, Rutgers
    The Giants have issues in the middle of their defense. The safety position is a problem, as is inside linebacker. Chase Blackburn shouldn’t be starting, while Keith Rivers, a free agent in March, can never get healthy.

  22. Miami Dolphins: Sharrif Floyd, DT, Florida
    Stud defensive tackle Randy Starks will be a free agent in March. If the Dolphins can’t retain him, they’ll have to find a replacement this offseason.

    Pick change; previously Cordarelle Patterson, WR



  23. Green Bay Packers: Andre Ellington, RB, Clemson
    James Starks has yet to prove that he can stay healthy, while Alex Green has shown nothing in several starts. Cedric Benson is obviously not a long-term answer, so the Packers may address the running back position early in the 2013 NFL Draft.

    Pick change; previously Zach Ertz, TE

  24. Chicago Bears: Nickell Robey, CB, USC
    Every single corner on the Bears’ roster is entering either free agency or their contract year, including Charles Tillman, who will be owed $8.5 million in 2013. Depth will be needed.

  25. New England Patriots: Margus Hunt, DE/DT, SMU
    Chandler Jones has had a monstrous rookie campaign thus far, but the Patriots need someone across from him to get to the quarterback, as Jermaine Cunningham has been a disappointment.

    Pick change; previously Cobi Hamilton, WR

  26. Denver Broncos: Jesse Williams, NT, Alabama
    The Broncos spent a second-rounder this past April on Derek Wolfe, but he’s playing defensive end and moving inside on nickel situations. That’s why Denver still needs a ton of help at defensive tackle. Jesse Williams is too good to pass up here.

    Pick change; previously Sharrif Floyd, DT

  27. San Francisco 49ers: Carrington Byndom, CB, Texas
    Teams are always looking for cornerback depth, especially if they have extra picks. Besides, Carlos Rogers isn’t playing as well this season. He’s been solid at times, but has been inconsistent.

    Pick change; previously Tony Jefferson, CB

  28. Baltimore Ravens: Da’Rick Rogers, WR, Tennessee Tech
    The Ravens take chances on players like Da’Rick Rogers. If Rogers stays out of trouble, he could be a solid weapon for Joe Flacco. The declining Anquan Boldin will be entering his contract year and will have to be replaced soon.

    Pick change; previously Carrington Byndom, CB

  29. Houston Texans: Cobi Hamilton, WR, Arkansas
    The Texans have needed a No. 2 receiver for years, but now that Andre Johnson is into his 30s, it won’t be long before they have to secure a new No. 1 wideout for Matt Schaub.

    Pick change; previously Oday Aboushi, OT

  30. Atlanta Falcons: John Simon, DE, Ohio State
    The overpaid Ray Edwards was recently cut. Meanwhile, John Abraham was re-signed to a team-friendly deal last offseason, which means the Falcons can release him if he regresses. Defensive end will be a priority early in the 2013 NFL Draft, and the Falcons may even double dip at the position in the first few rounds.

    Pick change; previously Oday Aboushi, OT
