The combine has brought some uncertainty to the number one spot. Sam Bradford bulked up and looks like he'll be ready to go with his shoulder. All the talk was on Bradford at the combine, and unfortunately it seems like the Rams will use the number one pick on a quarterback with a bum shoulder. Unless the Rams can acquire Michael Vick, they will draft Bradford or Clausen in the first round. Quarterbacks put fans in the stands and win games for teams. Look at the quarterbacks from the Super Bowl: Peyton Manning and Drew Brees. Their teams wouldn't have made it there without them. I still believe the Rams are one Jimmy Clausen away from an 8-8 season. Jimmy Laser Clausen hasn't been getting much credit from other analysts, but he may end up being the superior prospect. However there are rumors that the Rams will draft Suh and trade for Michael Vick. We'll keep you updated if we hear any more rumors but for now, Bradford is our 2010 NFL mock draft pick.

Even though Ndonkeykong Suh had an amazing combine, I think the Lions will surprise people and take McCoy with the second pick of the draft. McCoy has actually moved to McShay's highest rated player, and I think he makes more sense for Jim Schwartz's scheme in Detroit. Schwartz doesn't bring pressure often and relies on all four of his defensive linemen to generate a pass rush. This is the one area where McCoy has an edge on Suh which makes me choose it for our 2010 NFL mock draft. Either way, Suh or McCoy, they can't go wrong. The Lions still need a left tackle, but players like Suh and McCoy don't come around every year.

Tampa will draft a defensive player, and they really can't go wrong with either of their top two choices. Either Eric Berry will come on and make Tampa's secondary one of the best in the NFC South, or they go the more conservative route and draft Ndonkeykong Suh who would help stop the run but yet be an effective inside pass rusher. Its hard to mark Berry down this early in our 2010 NFL mock draft, even though there are a number of signs that point to him here. Berry has ties with Lane Kiffin who has ties with Tampa Bay and recently Tampa's current safety was faced with domestic battery charges. Suh or Berry, Tampa's defense will be better in 2010. Tampa has to be ecstatic that Suh is available at pick three.

New coaching means a new quarterback, especially when your starter is Jason Campbell. The Redskins are solid on defense, but need more weapons on offense. Jason Campbell has had a few surprisingly good games down the stretch, but he's not the answer. Jim Zorn has been fired and Shanahan signed a five year agreement. Campbell doesn't really compare with the likes of Jay Cutler and John Elway. Campbell was tendered and may be the starting quarterback to open the 2010 season, but eventually this will be Clausen's team.

The Kansas City Chiefs need to fix their offensive line. Matt Cassel does not have enough time in the pocket and he's not terribly elusive. Lucky for the Chiefs, the draft's best tackle is still available at the fifth pick. Kansas City has allowed the sixth most sacks last year and Matt Cassel will need all the help he can get to give this team a winning record. The defense needs addressing, but I think Scott Pioli will be able to retool it with the available free agents, the way he did in New England instead of looking towards the NFL draft.

The Seahawks need to address their secondary in the 2010 NFL Draft. Marcus Trufant was establishing himself as one of the best cornerbacks in the league but he was not the same player this year after returning from injury. Jordan Babineaux put up big tackle numbers but was often beat in coverage. If they are able to select Eric Berry with the 6th pick, the entire secondary would improve as a whole. Berry would be an immediate starter at free safety, allowing Babineaux to move over to strong safety. Berry's coverage abilities would also take some of the pressure off Trufant, Ken Lucas, and Josh Wilson.

Haden's draft stock slipped because of the combine. His slow 40 time will definitely make some teams think twice about drafting him, especially teams that don't run a cover 2 scheme. Mangini drafted Darelle Revis in the 2007 NFL draft and we all know how that played out. If Mangini thinks of Haden in the same way, a corner back at seven would be a very realistic pick in our mock draft.

Jason Pierre-Paul is a one-year wonder and probably just a workout warrior. Derrick Morgan seems like the right choice for best defensive end prospect, but when was the last time Oakland cared who the best prospect was? Its too bad the Raiders can't get one of the top tier quarterbacks and address their biggest need. Even though its obvious Tebow won't get drafted in round one, the Raiders never fail to surprise. The Raiders could also select Bruce Campbell, who had a great 40 time.

The Bills organization is a mess. Nobody wants to go to Buffalo to coach or play. They might as well join the CFL. The Bills need a quarterback, but will probably wait for somebody like Tony Pike in later rounds. The Bills offensive line is a mess, and they will want to improve to give their best offensive player, Fred Jackson, the greatest opportunity to shine.

Aaron Kampman won't solve all of Jacksonville's pass rushing problems. Somebody like Derrick Morgan could definitely step in and help make a difference opposite Kampmnn. Tim Tebow won't be taken in the first round, so Jacksonville can relax and know their ticket-seller will be available in later rounds. Almost two-thirds of our readers said Tebow will get drafted in either rounds one or two, and I happen to completely agree. After busting on a pass rusher in 2008, Jacksonville will try to get it right with their first pick in the 2010 NFL draft. They don't have a second round pick this year (traded to the Patriots), so no room for mistakes. It's Morgan in our 2010 NFL Mock Draft, but if it's not him, it will probably be another defensive end.

The Broncos will most likely be without Brandon Marshall next year, which makes them focus on grabbing a wide receiver early on. Dez Bryant would be a great replacement and should fill Marshall's shoes. I am hoping Josh McDaniels figures out a way to use Eddie Royal, because together they could be one of the best young pair of receivers in the league. The defense has its holes, but Kyle Orton needs all the help he can get.

People might think this is a little early for Dan Williams, but he is the probably the best specimen for a pure 3-4 nose tackle. Not only will Miami be getting the best player at this position, but it also fills a huge need as Jason Fegurson is injury prone and 36. He doesn't have much left, and it wouldnt surprise me if Dan Williams was the nose tackle to finish the season.

Bryan Bulaga improved his draft stock with the combine, and is now sitting pretty in the middle of round 1 of our 2010 NFL mock draft. There have been very convincing rumors that the Niners acknowledge their biggest need as a right tackle and they will address it early in the 2010 NFL draft. They would love to have a quarterback here, but with Locker staying in school and the two best quarterbacks off the board, patching their offensive line would be the next best option. Also, improving an offensive line can lead to improving the quarterback play, which the 49ers need.

The Seahawks are coming off a very difficult 5-11 season. They have some good pieces in place offensively with T.J. Houshmanzadeh, John Carlson, Deion Branch and Matt Hasselbeck. However, they lack an explosive threat that can score any time he touches the ball. There have been talks about Branch going back to New England. C.J. Spiller increased his draft stock with a tremendous combine and made him a viable pick at this point in the first round. Newly appointed head coach, Pete Carroll, explicitly said they need to run the ball effectively which makes Spiller a perfect fit. In our 2010 NFL mock draft, Seattle will be taking Spiller with one of their two first round picks if given the chance.

The Giants desperately need to strengthen the interior of their defense; both at defensive tackle and middle linebacker. Thankfully the Giants get two fixes at safety, one in the form of Kenny Philips returning and the other with the arrival of Antrel Rolle. The Giants get lucky as McClain slides to pick 15 and they fill their biggest need with the best linebacker in the draft.

You can expect the 49ers to select a defensive player with one of their first rounders with Mike Singletary in charge. They have some great pieces in place at linebacker with Patrick Willis and Manny Lawson, and they recently drafted Ricky Jean-Francois to help on the defensive line. A shut down corner to play opposite Nate Clements is a good bet in this position. Kyle Wilson turned heads during drills and played well in the Senior Bowl. He can step in right away and help his team. There's a balance of power in the NFC West with Kurt Warner retiring, and the 49ers have a definite shot at winning the division.

Vince Young has proven he is the quarterback of the future and Chris Johnson is a game-changer who led the league with over 2000 rushing yards. Tennessee's 0-6 start was not just because of Kerry Collins and was partially because of injuries in the secondary (Cortland Finnegan). The secondary is worth a look as they may try to establish depth by drafting a defensive back, but I think this pick will be Carlos Dunlap to step in and replace Vanden Bosch. Dunlap has his off the field issues, but is at a good value in the middle of round one of our 2010 NFL mock draft.

With or without Troy Polamalu, the Steelers need another defensive back to help bring this defense together. Ike Taylor hasn't been playing at a very high level and its obvious corner is a need. Patrick Robinson made some great plays in the Senior Bowl, but was also suspect at times. He has tons of potential and his hard-hitting nature makes him fit in well the defense in Pittsburgh.

Atlanta's pass defense was a mess last year. The Falcons have addressed the need by throwing large amounts of money at Dunta Robinson. Atlanta could go two routes here and either draft a safety (Earl Thomas or Taylor Mays) or grab Sean Weatherspoon as he's been climbing up draft boards and will significantly improve their front seven. Our 2010 NFL mock draft agrees with the latter of the two options.

The Texans finally finished the season with a winning record! Houston had one of the worst running games in the league and they will need to find a complement back to Slaton, but I think they will look in later rounds (Slaton was a third round pick). The Texans will probably look to improve their defensive line here, and Brian Price has been climbing up draft boards. They will also need to fill the large hole left at corner back with the departure of Dunta Robinson.

Mike Zimmer has done an incredible job with this defensive squad and its amazing the Bengals actually have the best scoring defense in the league. Also, Antonio Bryant signed a four year deal and will give the passing game a much-needed boost. As for this pick, it could go a number of ways. The defensive ends are performing better than expected without Antwan Odom and the linebackers are going to be a serious force for the next several years. Tight end, defensive tackle, and safety are the primary team needs and expect them to address them in both the free agency and the 2010 NFL draft.

What happened to the Patriot's Defense? Everybody thought pass rusher was the Patriot's primary need last year, but they didn't address it in the draft, and I think they're regretting it. However, because of the low success rate of pass-rushers in the first round, I think they will address it with one of their later picks. I will be shocked if the Patriots draft an offensive player in the first round. Belichick has a much better track record when it comes to drafting defensive players early on. Since he got to New England, his first round defensive players were: Richard Seymour, Ty Warren, Vince Wilfork, Brandon Meriweather, and Jerod Mayo. Every single player has been a key contributor. His offensive selections, besides Logan Mankins, haven't made a big splash: Benjamin Watson, Daniel Graham, and Fumble-on-the-goal-line Laurence Maroney. With Jarvis Green signing with the Broncos, Odrick will be a great addition to play defensive end in 3-4. Bill can get his running back, wide receiver, and outside linebacker in round two.

Green Bay is another example of a team having a great switch to the 3-4 defense. Last year's draft picks B.J. Raji and Clay Matthews made this possible by giving them a solid nose tackle and a great 3-4 outside pass rusher. The 2010 draft will be focused on retooling the offensive line. The Packers need a solid offensive tackle so bad, they may even trade up to get their stud. I feel bad for Aaron Rodgers because he has so much potential but doesn't have the offensive line to protect him. Sure, he holds on the ball for a second too long at times, but seriously, the Packers have let up the most sacks this season and a tackle is their biggest need.

The Eagles have had trouble finding someone who wants to keep the job at middle linebacker after losing Stewart Bradley to injury. Throughout the season, seven different players have started at the position. Despite this, their rush defense still ranks 9th in the league because of excellent play on the defensive line from players like Trent Cole and Brodrick Bunkley. Bradley might not be the same explosive player he was, and Brandon Spikes could really solidify this linebacking corps with his versatility.

The Ravens have been very active this offseason signing Donte Stallworth and trading for Anquan Boldin. Their offense has incredible potential and this team might be ready for a deep run in the playoffs. The defense is aging and Everson Griffen would be a good pick to get another aggressive defender on the roster.

The Cardinals are going to be a completely different team now that Kurt Warner has retired. There are a few holes on this squad, but first and foremost is giving Matt Leinart a reliable target to dump the ball off to. With Anquan Boldin leaving, Jermaine Gresham could become a staple of this offense.

Marc Columbo's injury hurt the Cowboys in the regular season and Flozell Adams went down in the playoffs. Watching the NFC divisional game between the Cowboys and the Vikings was painful. After Flozell Adams got hurt, the Cowboys couldn't do anything on offense. They may try to solidify their offensive line by drafting a tackle here. After trading away most of their early picks in last year's draft for Roy Williams and botching the rest of their picks, the Cowboys need to be successful the 2010 NFL draft. Idaho standout guard, Mike Iupati, is another tempting pick as well.

The Chargers have started four different nose tackles thus far this season and Terrence Cody's 370 pounds would take up a lot of space in the middle of their 3-4 defense. If someone like Cody is not available, the Chargers could draft a running back. Darren Sproles is a free agent and LaDainian Tomlinson's career in San Diego is officially over. Cody showed up to the Senior Bowl overweight but dropped his weight to 349 for his Pro Day. Because of the scarcity of nose tackles and the increase of 3-4 teams, Cody will likely be a round two talent selected in round one.

The Jets have traded for Antonio Cromartie and have dealt away Kerry Rhodes. Even though the Jets' organization has said they're happy with the safeties currently on the roster, Taylor Mays would be a perfect fit for Rex Ryan's aggressive defense. His size/speed combination will allow Ryan to use him in various ways in both coverage and blitzing. Taylor Mays needs some strong coaching, and he would be with one of the best defensive minds if he got drafted by the New York Football Jets.

Brett Favre ends another season on an interception. Why he threw that ball instead of running the seven yards to put the Vikings in field goal range is beyond me. Maybe he was trying to avoid one last hit at the end of the run. Favre was abused this game and it really made me reconsider this pick in the 2010 NFL mock draft. Colt McCoy isn't first round material and a player like Idaho guard Mike Iupati would improve the offensive line for the Vikings. Iupati had an great Senior Bowl and is ready to be a starter in the NFL.

Bill Polian blamed the Super Bowl loss on the offensive line, and he might send a message by spending the first pick in an interior lineman. Pouncey would be able to fill in at guard or center and could eventually take over for Jeff Saturday.

The Super Bowl Champion New Orleans Saints have quite a few players that could depart due to free agency, and it will difficult to keep them all. Scott Fujita left for the Browns and you can expect the Saints to upgrade the position through the NFL Draft. Sergio Kindle is one of the top outside linebackers in this class, and the Saints would gladly select him with the final pick of the first round as they do in our 2010 NFL mock draft.
