Tripp’s Final 2010 Mock Draft

In less than 42 hours, we will more than likely know who the newest Baltimore Raven will be. That is of course, barring a trade down to Friday night, which is certainly possible.

The 2010 NFL Draft starts tomorrow with the first round.

So this is my last Kiper/Mayock impression until next season.  I hope you have enjoyed them thus far, so do the same this time. Enjoy, and don’t miss them too much.

Click “Continue Reading” to see Tripp’s final mock draft.

1. St. Louis Rams – Sam Bradford QB (Oklahoma)

Trading Adam Carriker makes Suh a contender for this pick once again, but I think ultimately the Rams will realize that they almost have to take Sam Bradford here.

2. Detroit Lions – Ndamukong Suh DT (Nebraska)

They could make a draft day trade for the disgruntled Albert Haynesworth here, but if they don’t Suh is the way to go.

3. Tampa Bay Bucaneers - Gerald McCoy DT (Oklahoma)

Not a bad consolation prize. Russell Okung is also possible.

4. Washington Redskins – Russell Okung OT (Oklahoma State)

Hands down the best fit for their biggest need.

5. Kansas City Chiefs – Eric Berry S (Tennessee)

They’ll likely try and trade out here, but if there are no suitors Berry is the best player available that fills a need.

6. Seattle Seahawks – Trent Williams OT (Oklahoma)

Great ZBS fit, should do a solid job in taking over for the retired Walter Jones.

7. Cleveland Browns – Earl Thomas S (Texas)

Another team that could easily trade down. I don’t think Jimmy Clausen warrants much consideration here.

8. Oakland Raiders – Jason Pierre-Paul DE (USF)

No one knows what goes on in Al Davis’ head, but we do know he drafts with his stop watch. JPP fits the bill.

9. Buffalo Bills - Bryan Bulaga OT (Iowa)

Again I doubt Clausen hears his name called here although it is a possibility. Bulaga fills a bigger need.

10. Jacksonville Jaguars – Joe Haden CB (Florida)

I have a strong feeling they will be trading down for more picks here. Possibly with the intention of reaching for Tim Tebow in the late first/early second. If they can acquire a second and third for this pick, the Ravens could become a trading partner at 25.

11. Denver Broncos – Rolando McClain ILB (Alabama)

Word on the street is that they want Pouncey, but he’d be a reach here. If they stay put, McClain is their best bet.

12. Miami Dolphins – Sergio Kindle OLB (Texas)

After letting Joey Porter and Jason Taylor go, OLB becomes a huge issue for Miami. They will probably trade down to get better value for a guy like Sergio Kindle, or Brandon Graham.

13. San Francisco 49ers – Anthony Davis OT (Rutgers)

Big time talent with some character and maturity issues. Iron Mike should be able to straighten him out.

14. Seattle Seahawks – CJ Spiller HB (Clemson)

Didn’t do much to fix this position in free agency so they should address it early in the draft.

15. New York Giants – Dan Williams NT (Tennessee)

For all the talent they have along the defensive line, they have some serious issues.

16. Tennessee Titans – Derrick Morgan DE (Georgia Tech)

Incredible value here. Won’t be available if Bill Parcells decides he wants him in his 3-4 defense.

17. San Francisco 49ers – Kyle Wilson CB (Boise State)

Again no Jimmy Clausen. Kyle Wilson has sky rocketed up draft boards since the Senior Bowl.

18. Pittsburgh Steelers –  Mike Iupati OG (Idaho)

Tough decision if both Pouncey and Iupati are available here.

19. Atlanta Falcons - Brandon Graham DE (Michigan)

Probably projects the best as a 3-4 outside linebacker, but the Falcons may prohibit that.

20. Houston Texans - Devin McCourty CB (Rutgers)

Bruce Campbell, Taylor Mays and Ryan Matthews are all in play here.

21. Cincinnati Bengals – Jermaine Gresham TE (Oklahoma)

Sorry Ravens fans, Gresham could easily be a Patriot or a Bengal tomorrow.

22. New England Patriots – Dez Bryant WR (Oklahoma State)

Top 5 talent with a troubled past and poor image. Pats could be getting a steal here.

23. Green Bay Packers - Bruce Campbell OT (Maryland)

Tons of upside, but should be a bit of a project.

24. Philadelphia Eagles – Maurkice Pouncey C/OG (Florida)

Andy Reid loves drafting linemen.

25. Baltimore Ravens – Jared Odrick DE (Penn State)

I wonder who will fall into our laps this year? We’ll know in about 24 hours! You know, unless Ozzie goes all…Ozzie on us and trades down.

26. Arizona Cardinals - Sean Weatherspoon LB (Missouri)

If he’s available he should be their replacement for Karlos Dansby.

27. Dallas Cowboys – Taylor Mays S (USC)

Something tells me Dallas will trade up, I’m just not sure who it will be for.

28. San Diego Chargers – Ryan Matthews HB (Fresno State)

Probably eyeing Cody and Matthews heavily, it’ll be interesting to see who they choose if both are available.

29. New York Jets - Terrence Cody NT (Alabama)

Tough to predict what Rex will do here, D-line and rush linebacker are strong options.

30. Minnesota Vikings – Jimmy Clausen QB (Notre Dame)

Probably won’t make it here, I’m predicting someone to trade up for him in the late teens/early twenties.

31. Indianapolis Colts – Brian Price DT (UCLA)

Offensive line is certainly another way they could go.

32. New Orleans Saints – Carlos Dunlap DE (Florida)

Another top 10 talent that will need a short leash to be productive.

Highest Risers: Kyle Wilson (17), Bryan Bulaga (9), Trent Williams (6)

Furthest Fallers: Jimmy Clausen (30), Dez Bryant (22), Brian Price (32)
