2010 NFL Mock Draft
April 20, 2010 by Administrator
Draft order
1. St. Louis Rams – QB Sam Bradford – Oklahoma
With the recent release of QB Marc Bulger it makes it almost certain that the St. Louis Rams will draft Bradford in the upcoming draft. With many questions swirling around Sam Bradford and his shoulder, he came out on his pro day and shut everyone up. He preformed extremely well in front of pro scouts and I can confidently say that he will be a St. Louis Ram in 2010.
2. Detroit Lions – DT Ndamukong Suh – Nebraska
In the 2009 NFL draft, they boosted their offense with a franchise QB in Matt Stafford and TE Brandon Pettigrew. Also with their second round pick they drafted Safety Louis Delmas who is having a pretty good season so drafting They have lacked a run stopper in the middle of their defensive line.
3. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – DT Gerald McCoy – Oklahoma
Tampa Bay has one of the easiest picks in the 2010 NFL mock draft if the Rams go with Sam Bradford. They will have the option of either DT that the Lions don’t draft. The Buccaneers have a glaring need on their defensive line and Gerald McCoy will be a great player for them in the 2010 season.
4. Washington Redskins - OT Russell Okung – Oklahoma State
Now that the Redskins traded for QB Donavan McNabb and have their quarterback position set for 2010 they will turn to their next glaring need which is their offensive line. Russell Okung is the top offensive tackle in the 2010 NFL draft and should be the Redskins first round pick in this years’ draft.
5. Kansas City Chiefs – OT Trent Williams – Oklahoma
The Chiefs offensive line is in desperate need of improvement and in my 2010 NFL mock draft I have them doing just that.. They drafted OT Branden Albert in 2008 but hasn’t panned out like they were hoping. Williams is a big and powerful offensive lineman who has had a great career protecting Sam Bradford at Oklahoma. In his combine workout he ran a 4.85-second 40-yard dash, turned in a 32-inch vertical jump and put up 34 repetitions on the standard 225-pound bench press. By drafting a franchise left tackle to protect QB Matt Cassell’s blind side they may be able to step up their offensive production.
6. Seattle Seahawks – RB C.J. Spiller – Clemson
C.J. Spiller is head over heals the best offensive playmaker in the 2010 NFL draft and has moved up for that very reason. I had him going to Seattle with their second 1st round pick but I think they will have to pick him with the 6th pick because I don’t believe teams will pass on him. He will immediately impact the Seahawks offense in 2010.
7. Cleveland Browns – S Eric Berry – Tennessee
The Browns could go with DT Dan Williams and that wouldn’t be a bad pick but I believe that they will have to take Eric Berry here. He is a tremendous athlete who will be the leader on the Cleveland defense. He should go higher in this year’s draft but do to the position he plays he has fallen to the 7th pick in my 2010 NFL mock draft.
8. Oakland Raiders – OT Bryan Bulaga – Iowa
With the 8th pick in the 2010 NFL draft the Raiders could go a few ways. They may help the defensive line or secondary. In my 2010 NFL mock draft I have them picking Bryan Bulaga. This will be a tough pick for Al Davis but it should be the right one if he wants JaMarcus Russell to succeed.
9. Buffalo Bills – QB Jimmy Clausen – Notre Dame
The Bills could go with an offensive lineman with the 9th pick in the 2010 NFL draft but with the top three OT’s off the board I believe they will have to pick their QB of the future. If Clausen gets passed Buffalo, he could be waiting for awhile unless a team trades up for him like Cleveland did for Brady Quinn a few years ago.
10. Jacksonville Jaguars – DE Jason Pierre-Paul – South Florida
Pierre-Paul is an athletic defensive end who will dramatically improve the Jaguars pass rush in 2010. I have gone with many different players that Jacksonville could draft with the 10th pick in the 2010 NFL draft. I am going back to Jason Pierre-Paul even with the addition of Aaron Kampman this off-season.

Nice Jags pick although I am starting to think that Haden the CB is the better pick given the weak draft class of CB and the relativey strong passrush draft class. Haden can become a relaativley shut down corner and those are VERY valuable and perhaps is something the Jaguars should nto pass up given the ability to pick up a passrushing end or DT in a later round.
If Clausen goes anywhere near the top 10, I will be very surprised.
Mike, Why would you be surprised if Clausen goes near the top 10? He certainly has all the tools necessary to be a great NFL quarterback. Not only that, there are 4 teams in the top 10 who could draft a quarterback, so why would he not?
