11. Kansas City Chiefs – OT Riley Reiff – Iowa
12. Seattle Seahawks – DE Melvin Ingram – South Carolina
13. Arizona Cardinals – G David DeCastro – Stanford
There may be a quarterback controversy going into the 2012 NFL season between Kevin Kolb and John Skelton. It will probably be Kolb due to what they gave up for him as well as the money they paid him. Whoever becomes Arizona’s starting quarterback they will need protection up front and David DeCastro has been protecting Andrew Luck all season long. He would be a good addition to the Cardinals offense.
14. Dallas Cowboys – CB Stephon Gilmore – South Carolina
15. Philadelphia Eagles - DT Dontari Poe – Memphis
The Eagles could trade up to get DT Fletcher Cox or LB Luke Kuechly, two positions that they desperately need to fill. If they don’t find any suitable trade partners then they will have to settle with the best available player. Poe wasn’t a huge performer at Memphis but jumped up in the mock drafts due to his combine numbers.
16. New York Jets – DE/OLB Courtney Upshaw – Alabama
The Jets really regressed this year as did Mark Sanchez but I believe that they will stick with him and have to add younger weapons around him. This position might be a good spot for Alshon Jeffery but Rex Ryan is a defensive coach who will want a playmaker in the linebacking core. Bart Scott is getting old and barely plays on passing downs so they need someone who can play all over the field.
17. Cincinnati Bengals (Oakland) - DE Chandler Jones – Syracuse
18. San Diego Chargers – WR Michael Floyd – Notre Dame
19. Chicago Bears – OT Jonathan Martin – Stanford
20. Tennessee Titans – CB Dre Kirkpatrick – Alabama
