Figured we could have one thread that houses the posters mock drafts. I normally go 3-5 before draft time, and see how close I can get... here's my first mock draft of the year. Now a ton can change via combine/prodays/free agency, but here's version one! I like to edit my original post and add on my addt'l mock drafts to see how much they changed.

I'll hold off doing one til after the combine. But yours looks good, especially if KC trades for Nick Foles.
Yeah I normally like to do one before combine, after combine, after prodays, then right before the draft (after FA is done).
I have a few comments on this mock,,, 1. I dont think Lotuliel falls to 10 . I think that he is a better prospect than Floyd at this time. 2. KC could make a move for a QB via trade , but I would doubt that. Coaches usually hitch their wagon to a QB that they drafted. So I expect Geno Smith to go #1 overall.Besides there is also Smith - SF and Flynn - Sea would could be avaible 3. Ogletree to Cinncy....... LMFAO Fits perfectly! (DUI and suspended for drug use... this year) 4. Being a Seahawks fan (yes folks I know not everyone is a Titan fan) I agree w Short at #25 I would rather see Floyd there cause he fits the scheme better but the Hawks do need a pass rushing 3 tech to collaspe the pocket. 5. I know you said you will make others but one to watch for is Jake Longs pending Free Agency for the Dolphins . IF he walks (and said last yr he wanted to test the market) Miami may have to look in that direction.
2/22/13 - PreCombine Mock Draft 1. KC - Luke Joeckel This pick signifies why the Chiefs are bad. Instead of signing Brandon Albert to a long-term deal and addressing another position they just create a hole and then fill it. 2. JAX - Jarvis Jones The Seahawks took a risk on a tiny pass rusher last year with Bruce Irvine and Jones will play the same "Leo" position in Gus Bradley's defense. 3. OAK - Star Lotulelei Richard Seymour is probably out and they needed a replacement anyway. 4. PHI - Eric Fisher Mike Vick needs protection. 5. DET - Bjoern Werner Cliff Avril is probably gone. KVB is gone and needed to be replaced anyway. 6. CLE - Damontre Moore The offense has been addressed the last couple of drafts and the defense needs be foritfied. 7. ARZ - Chance Warmack The best two tackles are gone so they take the best offenisve lineman available. 8. BUF - Sam Montegomery Mark Anderson was a failure and Mario Williams disappointed. 9. NYJ - Dion Jordan The Jets have lacked a pass rusher since Rex Ryan took over. 10. TEN - Sharrif Floyd A good up-field penetrator for a d-line that lacks interior push. 11. SD - Lane Johnson Jared Gaither can't be depended upon to stay healthy. 12. MIA - Cordarrelle Patterson Miami's WRs are laughable. 13. TB -Dee Milliner Best CB prospect available. 14. CAR - Sylvester Williams DT help is an absolute must. 15. NO - Jonathon Hankins Worst defense in the history of the NFL. Take your pick. 16. STL - Jonathon Cooper Time to give Sam Bradfor some help. 17. PIT - Ezekiel Ansah James Harrison is old and Ansah will be set loose by that scheme. 18. DAL - Sheldon Richardson Switching from the 3-4 to the 4-3 they need an up-field penetrator. 19. NYG - Kevin Minter MLB has been a problem for a while. 20. CHI - Alec Ogletree Ogletree gets the task of being the guy to replace a hall of famer. 21. CIN - Manti Teo Rey Maualuga's replacement is actually an upgrade. 22. STL - Kenny Vaccaro No offensive linemen to pick, so Jeff Fisher takes the best player available. 23. MIN - Kenaan Allen Percy Harvin is in the last year of his deal and they don't have anything else at WRs 24. IND - DJ Fluker OL help is a big time need. 25. SEA - Kawann Short A good value pick for an already stocked DL. 26. GB - Tyler Eifert Jermichael Finley can't catch a cold and will probably be released. 27. HOU - Deandre Hopkins Houston has needed a #2 WR for a while. 28. DEN - Jonthan Banks Champ Bailey is getting old and could see the Charles Woodson move to FS. 29. NE - Matt Elam When Steve Gregory is your starting S you need help. 30. ATL - Giovani Bernard Michael Turner was released and I'm not sure Jaqizz Rodgers can carry the load. 31. SF - Eric Reid Dashon Goldson could be tagged again and Whitner took a step back. 32. BAL - Barrett Jones Matt Birk's replacement.
1. Kansas City Chiefs: Luke Joeckel, OT, Texas A&M -This is assuming they don't re-sign Albert and bring in another QB like Foles. 2. Jacksonville Jaguars: Jarvis Jones, OLB, Georgia -Need help in pass rush department, Jones fills in as a Irvin type role in Bradley's system. 3. Oakland Raiders: Star Lotulelei, DT, Utah -Have Star rated as best DT, Floyd is climbing up some boards though. 4. Philadelphia Eagles: Eric Fisher, OT, Central Michigan -Protects Philly's QB for next 10+ years, this move allows Kelly to focus on rest of the offense. 5. Detroit Lions: Bjoern Werner, DE, Florida State -Depleted position at DE, can come right in and start over a project/raw talent like Ansah. 6. Cleveland Browns: Demontre Moore, DE/OLB, Texas A&M -New 3-4 scheme, they need some pass rushers. Jordan or Mingo could also go here. 7. Arizona Cardinals: Geno Smith, QB, West Virginia -WHOA first QB taken. Joeckel and Fisher off the board, why not go QB? 8. Buffalo Bills: Mike Glennon, QB, NC State -They need a QB, think they have Glennon ranked a littler higher than Nassib. 9. New York Jets: Dion Jordan, DE/OLB, Oregon -Jets need some help on defense, especially some new pass rushers. 10. Tennessee Titans: Ezekial Ansah, DE, BYU -Titans won't go OG here. Mingo more of OLB, while Floyd or Milliner could go here. 11. San Diego Chargers: Lane Johnson, OT, Oklahoma -Chargers must upgrade their OL. 12. Miami Dolphins: Shariff Floyd, DT, Florida -Starks is probably gone, leaving a big need on the DL. 13. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Dee Milliner, CB, Alabama -Passed on Claiborne last year and then lost Talib. 14. Carolina Panthers: Sheldon Richardson, DT, Missouri -Desperate for some help at this position. 15. New Orleans Saints: Barkevious Mingo, OLB, LSU -Moving to Rob Ryan's 3-4, need that elite pass rusher. 16. St. Louis Rams: Chance Warmack, OG, Alabama -Need to up on OL, sure why not a top 5 talent? 17. Pittsburgh Steelers: Cordarrelle Patterson, WR, Tennessee -Losing Mike Wallace, need another weapon for the offense. 18. Dallas Cowboys: Jonathan Cooper, OG, North Carolina -Interior OL is horrible and Cooper is best OL available. 19. New York Giants: Kenny Vaccaro, FS, Texas -Giants are losing Phillips and Vaccaro brings speed and some hitting power. 20. Chicago Bears: D.J. Fluker, OT, Alabama -Get Cutler protection before he dies. 21. Cincinnati Bengals: Alec Ogletree, OLB, Georgia -Bengals doing a LB shuffle, need someone on the outside. 22. St. Louis Rams: Tavon Austin, WR, West Virginia -He's a faster Kendall Wright. 23. Minnesota Vikings: Keenan Allen, WR, California -Harvin or no Harvin they need another WR to help out the offense. 24. Indianapolis Colts: Jesse Williams, DT, Alabama -Need help on the interior DL, a lot of different options at the DT position here. 25. Seattle Seahawks: DeAndre Hopkins, WR, Clemson -Not seeing many holes on this team, gives Wilson a new toy on offense. 26. Green Bay Packers: Tyler Eifert, TE, Notre Dame -Replaces Finley who has been pretty disappointing for them. 27. Houston Texans: Manti Te'o, MLB, Notre Dame -Big questions marks at MLB position, takes advantage of this player falling. 28. Denver Broncos: Johnathan Hankins, DT, Ohio State -Tempted to go Eddie Lacy here because, well, John Fox. 29. New England Patriots: Matt Elam, SS, Florida -Was confused where to go here until I had to look up their starting safeties. 30. Atlanta Falcons: Eddie Lacy, RB, Alabama -Turner will be cut, Ryan and Julio will be very happy. 31. San Francisco 49ers: Xavier Rhodes, CB, Florida State -Need to upgrade their DB's, Rogers didn't look very good last year. 32. Baltimore Ravens: D.J. Swearinger, SS, South Carolina -Reed is probably gone.
