Yeah I'd bet money on DAL taking a CB. Prince is top 10 material still.

I'm gonna try to take a stab at a mock for the top half of the first:

1. Panthers - QB Blaine Gabbert
I don't think he's worth it, but bottom teams always want that QB for their face of the franchise for the number 1 pick.

2. Broncos - DT Nick Fairley
Toss-up between him and Dareus. Can't go wrong either way.

3. Bills - QB Cam Newton
It's gonna happen and it will be a terrible pick. They'll go for flash like they did with Spiller last year.

4. Bengals - WR A. J. Green
BPA. Apparently taking Peterson would lead to Joseph leaving. Not sure if I buy that but they'll be getting a stud either way.

5. Cardinals - OLB/DE Von Miller
This is my lock of the draft. This will happen.

6. Browns - WR Julio Jones
Wideouts aren't usually picked too high, but there's two studs this year and the Browns need alot of help here.

7. 49ers - CB Patrick Peterson
No explanation needed. 49ers get luckier than when Crabtree dropped to them. They will probably try to trade up to secure him anyways.

8. Titans - DT Marcell Dareus
Gabbert would be the pick if still available. They're still getting a guy that could go as high as 1 with how wide open this draft is.

9. Cowboys - CB Prince Amukamara
CB is such a big need that I wouldn't be surprised if they traded up to secure one of the top 2 CBs.

10. Redskins - DE Da'Quon Bowers
Could have really used Jones. Bowers has been sliding like crazy lately so this could turn into a big steal. The D-line is a mess for them.

11. Texans - DE J.J. Watt
BPA. This was a tough pick. Texans could really go any way with this one.

12. Vikings - OT Tyron Smith
They'd probably trade down if the draft went like this, but the O-line has been terrible the last couple years.

13. Lions - OT Nate Solder
O-line is a big need as well. Might want to keep Stafford healthy for a few more games.

14. Rams - DE Robert Quinn
This could be a huge steal. DE is so deep in this draft.

15. Dolphins - DE Aldon Smith
Yet another DE. They could go with Ingram here with Brown and Williams being free agents.

16. Jaguars - QB Jake Locker
No, he's not worth being picked this high, but as the Jaguars showed last year, they aren't afraid to reach in the first round. QB is a big need for them though.
