With the 19th pick of the 2010 NFL draft, the Atlanta Falcons select, from the University of Texas... SERGIO KINDLE.
The Falcons here get a player who has the ability to rush the passer. Whether it be from standing up as an OLB in the 4-3, or with his hand on the ground as a DE, Kindle will get to the QB.
Picked as someone who contributes from day one situationally and has the potential to be the long term solution at OLB or the eventual replacement for John Abraham.
Prospects also close to getting the green light were Kyle Wilson, Brandon Graham and CJ Spiller.
Spiller is too much of a luxury pick, Graham doesn't have the ceiling or versatility of Kindle, and I think they wouldn't want to spend all that money on Robinson and then spend a 1st rounder on a CB.

They do want Weatherspoon and he will be a good solid OLB, but Kindle is a much bigger threat off the edge either from LB or DE.
Game changers win championships and I think Kindle can be that.

Nah, he is a Ryan Matthews guy me thinks...
Or he might blindside us and go with the athlete-extraordinare Taylor Mays.

Ah, Football!
Let me begin by stating something most around here already know. I'm not a fan of choosing RB's in the 1st round unless they're "can't miss" type Rb's.
Our secondary has been inconsistent, at best, for the past few years. Now that D-Rob's gone it leaves the Texans little choice but to make CB a priority in the first couple of rounds unless they pull one out of their arse within the next month.
All that said.....let the barrage of HOU-TEX beatings begin

You can never go wrong taking the BPA and at an area of need.

Well, in most people's cases, that would've been Spiller or Mathews. Sorry guys, I just couldn't bring myself to do it.

Personally I am glad you passed on Spiller. I could have lived with Matthews but I think filling the CB void is a huge concern. I think the draft fell pretty crappy for the Texans seeing how Upati, Thomas, Williams and Pouncey are all gone. Almost begging you to take the CB in round 1.

Worst. Pick. Ever.
Seriously though, I think this is probably the safest need pick you could have made.
Now do I think you win championships with safe picks... maybe not.
I still would have gone Spiller here, Mays intrigues me too.

I think that pick has logic to it . I think you can get a good RB in the 2nd but the CBs drop off pretty quick . Oh ... and ... Booo Boooo .

The strange thing about football is that the only one of those guys I would look at as the Texans is Thomas.
Each to their own I guess.
Actually if that Williams is the DT not the OT I would look at him too.

I know, right? Geez, especially for someone who doesn't dig on RB's in the 1st. My big nasties went off the board and was left with the top 2 RB's, LOL, that's rough.
HOU-TEX
Ah, Football!
Believe it or not, Mays was still on my short list. *ahem* Devin McCourty was too.
That's my plan...........in theory. Knowing the way this mock has gone so far, it wouldn't surprise me to see a dozen RB's taken before then.

With the 22nd overall pick the New England Patriots select....
Brandon Graham, OLB from Michigan
The Patriots aren't known for taking 3-4 OLBs in the first round but Graham changes that. He has the quickness and speeding rushing ability not seen since Dwight Freeney was drafted back in 2002. The Steelers took LaMarr Woodley from Michigan and were able to successfully convert him into a 3-4 OLB, so Graham should be able to do the same as he is MORE talented then Woodley (no disrespect to him either).

I think Mays is about right in where he was taken, huge talent, questionable production.... although I blame the lack of talent around him for the down year.
I'd love to hear what Cushing thinks of him as a prospect.
Graham is great value for the Patriots here.

This was really tough on me.
One of the Packer's needs is a change-up type of back to go with Grant. But, according to Packer fans, this is a fairly low priority to them.
Their offensive line was CRAP last year. They need a left tackle.
So.
With the 23rd pick, the Green Bay Packers select:
Bruce Campbell, LT, Maryland Terrapins.

He's raw but he's an athletic freak.
He's had a history of injury and he could well be a bust.
The Packers run a zone blocking scheme and need athletic linemen. And this guy is that.
But the odds are, he's gone in the top 15 picks. So this is a value pick.

I'll bet money it doesn't happen this year. But hey, you never know. If it does, maybe there'll be a hot RB waiting for us in the 2nd round.

Just protecting the integrity of my fellow fake GMs work. I believe we take Matthews at 20.

Sometimes a need at one position can be overlooked in favor of tremendous talent at another position. Our gaping hole at CB can't be overlooked in favor of tremendous talent elsewhere. We have no #1CB or anyone that's even close. This pick fills our biggest need and was an outstanding choice. A good RB (Ben Tate) can easily be had in the 2nd or 3rd round.
