1. Pick No.

   Luke Joeckel

   OT

   Texas A&M
   The Chiefs need to take the best player available at a position of need, and following free agency, I think they might be without left tackle Branden Albert.
2. Pick No.

   2

   

   Dee Milliner

   CB

   Alabama
   Do they go pass rusher? Do they go cover corner? I think they go with Milliner, one of the best players in the entire draft.
3. Pick No.

   Sharrif Floyd

   DT

   Florida
   I think they're likely to lose Richard Seymour in free agency, Desmond Bryant's also heading into free agency, and Tommy Kelly's cap number is way too big.
4. Pick No.

   Chance Warmack

   OG

   Alabama
   The Eagles need help on their offensive line. Warmack is the best player in this draft at this point in time.
5. Pick No.

   5

   

   Damontre Moore

   DE

   Texas A&M
   Detroit just lost Kyle Vanden Bosch, while Cliff Avril's an unrestricted free agent. Moore is a guy who had 21 tackles for loss and 12.5 sacks in 2012.
6. Pick No.

   6

   

   Jarvis Jones

   OLB

   Georgia
   New GM Michael Lombardi knows the Browns need a pass rusher and he loves height/weight/speed guys. Jones is a dynamic football player with great explosion.
7. Pick No.

   7

   

   Eric Fisher

   OT

   Central Michigan
   I think it's too high to go for any of the quarterbacks. Meanwhile, offensive tackle is a very solid position in this draft, and I think Fisher goes to the Cardinals here.
8. Pick No.

   8

   

   Bjoern Werner

   DE

   Florida St.
   The Bills have a number of needs. Werner is a high-motor pass rusher and I think he ends up in Buffalo.
9. Pick No.

   9

   

   Cordarrelle Patterson

   WR

   Tennessee
   The Jets need explosive players on offense, especially at wide receiver, and I think this is their guy.
10. Pick No.

    10

    

    Kenny Vaccaro

    SS

    Texas
    The Titans need to shore up their pass defense and have a lot of needs in the secondary. Vaccaro is the best safety in the draft.
