2012 Texans Talk Mock Draft

[Texan4Ever]

With the 10th pick in the 2012 NFL Draft, the Buffalo Bills select...

OLB/DE Courtney Upshaw



Lacks the height (6'1") or speed you're looking for but, was very productive at Bama' racking up 31.5 tackles for a loss and 15.5 sacks the past two years. He can play standing up or with his hand on the ground which is perfect since the Bills can't decide whether or not they want to run a 3-4 or 4-3.

The Chiefs of KC will take David Decastro G Stanford .

Great pick

I was really hoping he would fall to the Cowgirls.

The Cheifs will probably go this way too. If they cant trade up for RG3 or sign Manning.

Not a chance I was going to pick him for the Cards

Safe pick

10 yr starter, football is important to him.

Would have considered an OT if the big 3 were there but a hardnosed guard is to good to pass up .

[WolverineFan]

Chiefs taking DeCastro is definitely up there with best picks so far in this mock.

With the 12th pick in the 2012 NFL Draft, the Seattle Seahawks select

Melvin Ingram DE/OLB South Carolina



Seahawks need a DE and Ingram is the best available. Ingram is also one of the best players available and is a freak athlete. I see a perennial probowl player here.

[Brandon420tx]

I can see the Cards reaching for OL help here after DeCastro, Martin, and Reiff are gone since they don't have a second round pick. However I'm not much of a reacher and instead I'll look to help the Arizona Cardinals offense in another way.

With the 13th pick, the Arizona Cardinals select Michael Floyd, WR from Notre Dame. This should help Larry Fitzgerald with his double-triple coverage issues. The last few seasons rookie wide receivers have had about a 50% chance to make splash with their new teams, and the Cards gamble slightly on this one. Luke Kuechly is also one of my top 4 for the Cards who also consisted of DeCastro and Martin. LK might be a safer pick but Arizona could be desperate for some sexiness.

So ya, Michael Floyd

[Dutchrudder]

Cowboys on the clock, I see SteelB is here. Please continue to PM or email the next person when you make your pick. If you think you will be out a while, send your board of top X players to me & Super Mario.

14- Cowboys- SteelBTexan
15- Eagles- Shaft75
16- Jets- kiwitexansfan
17- Bengals- Kaiser Toro
18- Chargers- Srrono
19- Bears- MistaRed
20- Titans- Señor Stan
21- Bengals- Kaiser Toro
22- Browns- Dutchrudder

[MistaRed]

Michael Floyd? Noooooooo

[kiwitexansfan]

Floyd was very high on my list too.

I think he might be the most productive of the WRs this year.

[steelbtexan]

With the 14th pick in the TT mock draft the Dallas Cowboys select Janoris Jenkins CB North Alabama.

With the Cowboys drafting Jenkins and signing Brandon Carr in FA (Rumored) a major weakness has turned into a strength. Jenkins is a grear cover guy, as witnessed by his shutting down Julio Jones and A.J. Green during the 2010 season. Although he's relatively short Jenkins has a great vertical and long arms. He ran a 4.44 at the combine. He's a great tackler in the open field. (A major weakness of the Cowboys CB's last yr.)

Jenkins is the most talented CB in this draft. IMHO and wouldn't be available except for 2 mary jane busts and a bar fight. (I dont have a problem with guys who smoke weed.) Jerrah has decided to go back to the 80's and Jenkins would be the kinda guy Jimmy Johnson would take.

Like this pick

Having Floyd and Fitz should really open things up for the running game. As well as making the OL's job easier.

Everybody has done a great job so far.

I PM'ed Shaft, He will probably make his pick when he gets to work tomorrow.

[kiwitexansfan]

Jenkins is a good pick.

I was starting to think that I might have to go in that direction just because of the value he presents around about here.

[Dutchrudder]

I like all the picks so far, except for Poe (sorry TK)

I haven't seen anyone make a pick that didn't fill a need though (Vikings pick is debatable). A rather interesting trend...

Yeah, for the Cowboys the strength of this draft happens to match up with their needs.

If they can keep Jerrah sober on draft day the Cowboys should be able to add 4 major contributors to the team this yr. (Probably wont happen)

[Shaft75]

With the 15th pick in the 2012 NFL Draft, the Philadelphia Eagles select Luke Kuechly, LB, Boston College



Really no need for explanation... About as obvious as Cushing/Matthews to Texans in 2009. The dream team is in desperate need of players with high football IQ's.
