Walter Football 2014 Backward NFL Mock Draft
Walter Football 2014 Backward NFL Mock Draft
This is our sixth-annual backward mock draft. It's what it sounds like: What would the 2014 NFL Draft look like if the order were reversed? Whom would the Seahawks take with the first pick? My annual Backward NFL Mock Draft is listed below.
- Seattle Seahawks: Jadeveon Clowney , DE , South Carolina
We're still not sure whom the Texans will pick at No. 1 - they themselves are still deciding between Jadeveon Clowney and Blake Bortles - but any team that didn't need a quarterback would automatically make Clowney its first-overall selection. Seattle actually has a need for a pass-rusher in the wake of losing Chris Clemons, so this is even more of a no-brainer.
- Denver Broncos: Khalil Mack , DE , Buffalo
- San Francisco 49ers: Sammy Watkins , WR , Clemson
- New England Patriots: Mike Evans , WR , Texas A&M
- Carolina Panthers: Greg Robinson , OT , Auburn
- New Orleans Saints: Anthony Barr , OLB , UCLA
- Cleveland Browns: Blake Bortles , QB , UCF
- San Diego Chargers: Justin Gilbert , CB , Oklahoma State
- Cincinnati Bengals: Jake Matthews , OT , Texas A&M
- Kansas City Chiefs: Taylor Lewan , OT , Michigan
- Philadelphia Eagles: HaHa Clinton-Dix , FS , Alabama
- Green Bay Packers: Eric Ebron , TE , North Carolina
- Arizona Cardinals: Derek Carr , QB , Fresno State
- Miami Dolphins: Zack Martin , OG / OT , Notre Dame
- New York Jets: Brandin Cooks , WR , Oregon State
- Baltimore Ravens: Calvin Pryor , FS , Louisville
- Dallas Cowboys: Aaron Donald , DT , Pittsburgh
- Pittsburgh Steelers: Darqueze Dennard , CB , Michigan State
- Chicago Bears: Timmy Jernigan , DT , Florida State
- St. Louis Rams: Bradley Roby , CB , Ohio State
- New York Giants: Kony Ealy , DE , Missouri
- Tennessee Titans: RaShede Hageman , DT , Minnesota
- Detroit Lions: Odell Beckham Jr. , WR , LSU
- Buffalo Bills: Marqise Lee , WR , Southern California
- Minnesota Vikings: Teddy Bridgewater , QB , Louisville
- Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Kelvin Benjamin , WR , Florida State
- Atlanta Falcons: Dee Ford , OLB / DE , Auburn
- Oakland Raiders: Louis Nix , DT , Notre Dame
- Cleveland Browns: Ryan Shazier , OLB , Ohio State
- Jacksonville Jaguars: Johnny Manziel , QB , Texas A&M
- St. Louis Rams: Brandon Thomas , OG / OT , Clemson
- Houston Texans: Jimmy Garoppolo , QB , Eastern Illinois
If the Texans pass on Blake Bortles and select Jadeveon Clowney, which Charlie has happening in his mock, they would probably target Jimmy Garoppolo in Round 2. Well, they still get Garoppolo - but with no Clowney. I guess it makes sense for the worst teams to be picking first.
