The Professor's 2012 NFL Mock Draft 9.0 (Final)

1. Colts: Andrew Luck, QB, Stanford

“Andrew Lock”.

2. Redskins: Robert Griffin, QB, Baylor

Holmgren played it too cute. Skins will ride the lightning.

3. Vikings: Matt Kalil, OT, USC

No way they pass on this stud.

4. Browns: Trent Richardson, RB, Alabama

Ok Mike, play it straight. That’s right, patience is a virtue.

5. Buccaneers: Morris Claiborne, DB, LSU

Claiborne and (FA) Wright replace Barber and Talib. Makes sense.

6. Rams: Riley Reiff, OT, Iowa

Added Free Agent WRs. Jeff’s not that high on Blackmon.

7. Jaguars: Justin Blackmon, WR, Oklahoma State

They won’t give up on Blaine.

8. Dolphins: Ryan Tannehill, QB, Texas A&M

Let him sit for a year.

9. Panthers: Michael Floyd, WR, Notre Dame

Cam’s the man.

10. Bills: Luke Kuechly, ILB, Boston College

High production and high character. Kuechly joins Super Mario.

11. Chiefs: Fletcher Cox, DT, Mississippi State

Cox is a wrecking ball.

12. Seahawks: Quinton Coples, DE, North Carolina

Pete is a motivator.

13. Cardinals: Mark Barron, S, Alabama

The HOT pick.

14. Cowboys: David DeCastro, G, Stanford

Jerry is having doubts about Romo.

15. Eagles: Dontari Poe, DT, Memphis

Beasty Boy.

16. Jets: Melvin Ingram, DE, South Carolina

Rex gets his flex. Top rated pass rusher.

17. Bengals: Stephon Gilmore, CB, South Carolina

Talented and unblemished resume.

18. Chargers: Nick Perry, DE/OLB, USC

California Dreaming.

19. Bears: Mike Adams, OT, Ohio State

A healthy Cutler equals a playoff team.

20. Titans: Dre Kirkpatrick, CB, Alabama

Physical corner from a big-time program.

    21. Bengals: Michael Brockers, DT, LSU

    Can’t find these guys in the 2^nd round. Can’t   afford these guys in Free Agency.

22. Browns: Jonathan Martin, OT, Stanford

Never let them see you sweat!

23. Lions: Cordy Glenn, G, Georgia

A 1000-yard rusher, and another 5000 yards passing. Scary!

24. Steelers: Dont’a Hightower, ILB, Alabama

Rock solid. Will replace Farrier.

25. Broncos: Jerel Worthy, DT, Michigan State

Solid stopper added to a top defense.

26. Texans: Kendall Wright, WR, Baylor

Dynamic slot complements Andre Johnson.

27. Pats: Janoris Jenkins, CB, North Alabama

Risk vs. reward.

28. Packers: Whitney Mercilus, DE/OLB, Illinois

Bookends with Clay.

29. Ravens: Chandler Jones, DE, Syracuse

Too much talent to pass on.

30. 49ers: Coby Fleener, TE, Stanford

Reunited and it feels so good.

31. Pats: Courtney Upshaw, DE/OLB, Alabama

Bill sees a player who can flex into different schemes.

32. Giants: Stephen Hill, WR, Georgia Tech

The 2^nd coming of Jerry Rice. That’s right, Jerry fricking Rice!
