1st NBA Mock Draft

1	Washington Wizards	John Wall (Kentucky)
2	Philadelphia 76ers	Evan Turner (Ohio State)
3	New Jersey Nets	Derrick Favors (Georgia Tech)
4	Minnesota Timberwolves	DeMarcus Cousins (Kentucky)
5	Sacramento Kings	Wesley Johnson (Syracuse)
6	Golden State Warriors	Al-Farouq Aminu (Wake Forest)
7	Detroit Pistons	Greg Monroe (Georgetown)
8	Los Angeles Clippers	Cole Aldrich (Kansas)
9	Utah Jazz (from NYK)	Ed Davis (North Carolina)
10	Indiana Pacers	Xavier Henry (Kansas)
11	New Orleans Hornets	Daniel Orton (Kentucky)
12	Memphis Grizzlies	Ekpe Udoh (Baylor)
13	Toronto Raptors	Hassan Whiteside (Marshall)
14	Houston Rockets	Patrick Patterson (Kentucky)
15	Milwaukee Bucks (from CHI)	James Anderson (Oklahoma State)
16	Minnesota Timberwolves (from CHA)	Gordon Hayward (Butler)
17	Chicago Bulls (from MIL)	Paul George (Fresno State)
18	Miami Heat	Avery Bradley (Texas)
19	Boston Celtics	Luke Babbitt (Nevada)
20	San Antonio Spurs	Donatas Motiejunas (Lithuania)
21	Oklahoma City Thunder	Solomon Alabi (Florida State)
22	Portland Trail Blazers	Damion James (Texas)
23	Minnesota Timberwolves (from UTA)	Kevin Seraphin (France)
24	Atlanta Hawks	Larry Sanders (VCU)
25	Memphis Grizzlies (from DEN)	Eric Bledsoe (Kentucky)
26	Oklahoma City Thunder (from PHX)	Quincy Pondexter (Washington)
27	New Jersey Nets (from DAL)	Terrico White (Mississippi)
28	Memphis Grizzlies (from LAL)	Stanley Robinson (UConn)
29	Orlando Magic	Willie Warren (Oklahoma)
30	Washington Wizards (from CLE)	Devin Ebanks (West Virginia)

Luke Babbitt is an impressive scorer and is 6'7. He's going to be a perfect replacement/ scorer for the Celtics when the big three is all said and done. He's also a white guy which is kind of cool too. There are rumors the C's may draft Solomon Alabi out of Florida State and although the thought of a 7'1 guy are cool, I don't trust his 241 pound frame to be able to translate into the NBA game. My biggest hope for the Celtics is to have a guy like Xavier Henry to drop, but that most likely won't happen. What the Celtics need to get is points and a scorer who can play 2/3 would be ideal.

DP's Last Mock Draft

1. St. Louis: Sam Bradford, QB, OU
Hahaha, told all you fuckers.

2. Detroit Lions: Ndamukong Suh , DT, Nebraska
I would love for them to take Eric Berry, but they need to take a "safe" pick in Suh.

3. Tampa Bay: Gerald McCoy , DT
Had an awful defense last year. Also would love for them to take Berry but they are going to play it safe also.

4. Washington Redskins: Russell Okung , OT
Picked up Donovan McNabb no need to overreact and make a giant mistake by taking Jimmy Clausen. Worry about protecting Donovan.

5. Kansas City: Bryan Bulaga , OT
Need to protect Matt Cassel. I would love for them to take Berry or Ronaldo McClain. But they need to build their front line up.

6. Seattle Seahawks: Trent Williams , OT
Major offensive line issues. This stops the bleeding for now.

7. Cleveland Browns: Eric Berry S

The dog pound all starts masturbating. He's the best player in the draft.

8. Oakland Raiders: Jason Pierre-Paul, DE
He's really fast off the line. And if you're fast, you're on the Raiders.

9. Buffalo Bills: Bruce Campbell , OT
Jimmy Clausen has small hands and I think this is where Tebow ends up in round 2.

10. Jacksonville Jaguars: Derrick Morgan , DE
He's going to be good. best player on the board, gotta take him.

11. Denver Broncos: Rolando McClain , ILB
Everyone believes this will be a Dez Bryant. But defense wins championships.

12. Miami Dolphins: Dan Williams , DT
This is a great pick for them and somewhat of a steal. He will be a great building block for a defense.

13. San Fransisco: Joe Haden , CB
They need another corner. Haden is the best player available.

14. Seattle Seahawks: C.J. Spiller , RB
The took an offensive lineman first, now they get the best runningback. So far Seahawks have the best draft.

15. New York Giants: Jared Odrick, DT
Huge defensive line issues, and with Osi shutting it down, they need some help.

16. Tennessee Titans: Earl Thomas , CB
Need someone across the field from Cortland Finnigan.

17. San Fransisco: Anthony Davis , OT
Need offensive line help, now that they took a CB

18. Pittsburgh Steelers: Dez Bryant, WR
Why the fuck not. Now that Ben's suspended for 4-6 they need someone to throw to.

19. Atlanta Falcons: Brandon Graham , OLB
They need some defense.

20. Houston Texans: Ryan Mathews , RB
They need some insurance with Steve Slaton being inconsistent.

21. Cincinnati Bengals: Taylor Mays , FS
Love this move. They get a safety that they desperately need.

22. New England Patriots: Jermaine Gresham, TE
They lost Wes Welker. They don't need to worry about losing offensive production with Gresham.

23. Green Bay Packers: Mike Iupati , OG
Must protect Aaron Rodgers

24. Philadelphia Eagles: Kyle Wilson , CB
Need someone to be across from Asanti Samuel.

25. Baltimore Ravens: Jerry Hughes , OLB
He will probably be the most feared player in a couple of years.

26. Arizona Cardinals: Sergio Kindle , OLB
Defense, defense, defense

27. Dallas Cowboys: Devin McCourty , CB
Have been looking for a CB for years

28. San Diego Chargers: Terrence Cody , DT
Would love for the Steelers to take him.

29. New York Jets: Everson Griffen , DE
Rex Ryan will go defense

30. Minnesota Vikings: Tim Tebow, QB
He's an asshole, Brett Favre is an asshole. Perfect match

31. Indianapolis Colts: Rodger Saffold, OT
Protect Payton

32. New Orleans Saints: Sean Weatherspoon , OLB
Perfect match.

BMack's NFL Mock Draft #1

It is very early and things will change, but here is how I see things going as of today...

1. STL: Ndamukong Suh, DT, Nebraska
I know there are some injury concerns here, but when healthy this guy is a game changer. The Rams need a lot of help, but since I think Vick is going to the Rams, it is time to work on that defense.

2. Det: Gerald McCoy, DT, OU
McCoy could go #1, he is one of the best players in the draft, and the Lions need to get tougher up the middle.

3. TB: Eric Berry, S, Tennessee
In my opinion Berry is the best player in the draft. Yes, this is very high for a safety, but you can't pass on this kind of talent, plus the Bucs got toasted through the air last year.

4. Wash: Jimmy Clausen, QB, ND
Campbell's time in Washington is over. Clausen gets the nod over Bradford, because of the pro system that he played in. I know Notre Dame was a let down while he was there, but this kid is the real deal.

5. KC: Joe Haden, CB, Florida
Want a better defense? Get good cornerbacks. Haden has the chance to be something special. He is the clear #1 corner, and KC just can't pass on that.

6. Sea: Sam Bradford, QB, OU
The Hasselbeck era is ending in Seattle, and if Bradford is still there they will jump on him.

7. Cle: Derrick Morgan, DE, Georgia Tech
Morgan can get pressure on the QB. He is more polished then Jason Pierre-Paul, and the Browns need a sure thing.

8. Oak: Anthony Davis, OT, Rutgers
It doesn't matter who you have under center if you can't protect the QB. The Raiders need to be smart here and not go with a skill player. Build from the inside out, but it is the Raiders, so who fucking knows.

9. Buff: Dez Bryant, WR, OK State
Owens and Evans could be gone. Bryant is the best WR in the draft, so this is an easy pick for the Bills.

10. Den: Everson Griffen, DE, USC
The Broncos are so pissed Bryant is gone. Without another top reviver around the Broncos stay logical, and Griffen is a great fit for a 4-3 defense.

11. Jax: Jason Pierre-Paul, DE, USF
The Jags have to get more pressure on the QB, Pierre-Paul is a little raw, but the sky is the limit with this kid, so he can't fall any further.

12. Mia: Ronaldo McClain, LB, Bama
Dolphins need an ILB and McClain is a beat. A steal this late in the draft (in my opinion).

13. SF: Russell Okung, OT, OK State
A lot of people think the 49ers will go Spiller here, but I am not sold. They go with the safe pick, and start rebuilding that line.

14. Sea: C.J. Spiller, RB, Clemson
Seattle should go with an OL here, but with Spiller still on the board this is a chance to setup your whole offense for the future (since they already took Bradford).

15. NYG: Kyle Wilson, CB, Boise St.
The Giants got toasted through the air last year. Wilson is fast, and in the right system could turn into a very serviceable CB.

16. SF: Carlos Dunlap, DE, Florida
If the 49ers can stop him from being a douchebag he is one of the most talented kids in this draft. The 49ers can't let him fall any further.

17. Tenn: Brian Price, DT, UCLA
Titans need to get stronger up the middle. Price can be very disruptive, and you know how the Titans love that.

18. Pitt: Mike Iupati
Big Ben can't keep taking hits, and that running game is not what it once was. Smart pick, since it is time to rebuild that front.

19. Atl: Kareem Jackson, CB, Bama
Another team that really needs to get better at protecting against the pass.


20. Hou: Taylor Mays, S, USC
They would have loved to get a top corner, but too many are off the board. Mays can be a game changer, and for a team that is so close to being good he could be the difference.

21. Cin: Demaryius Thomas, WR, Georgia Tech
OchoCinco isn't going to be around forever, and Palmer could use more weapons. He is a big body (6-3) and could open up the field for #85.

22. NE: Brandon Graham, OLB, Michigan
Patriots need to get young at the LB position, so this is the obvious pick, but the Patriots have surprised us before, and they are not usually very high on taking linebacker early (other then Mayo).

23. GB: Trent Williams, OT, Oklahoma
If this offense could protect Aaron Rodgers they will be one of the best in the league. That can start with this pick.

24. Phi: Sean Weatherspoon, OLB, Mizzou
He can play inside or out, and Philly needs to get younger/better at the LB position. Plus it is kind of awesome to have a Witherspoon and Weatherspoon on the same defense.

25. Balt: Devin McCourty, CB, Rutgers
The Ravens can stop the run, but if you spread them out they can be very vulnerable. This pick helps that.

26. Ari: Sergio Kindle, DE/OLB, Texas
With Dansby likely gone the Cardinals look to soften the blow. He gives them lots of options on defense, and that's never a bad thing.

27. Dal: Bryan Bulaga, OT, Iowa
Dallas OL did not look good in the playoffs, and they have to protect Romo, and make that running game better. Bulaga is a steal this late in the draft.

28. SD: Jahvid Best, RB, Cal
With LT gone, and Spoles being a glorified 3rd down back, the Chargers look to the future. He has the speed, but is he healthy enough?

29. NYJ: Arrelious Benn: WR, Illinois
Jets defense is already great, so it is all about getting Mark Sanchez more weapons.

30. Min: Maurkice Pouncey, OL, Florida
Favre almost died in that last playoff game, so the Vikings do the logical thing and try to fix that.

31. Ind: Dan Williams, DT, Tenn
The Colts have trouble against the runs every year. Williams should never have fallen this far, and the Colts take advantage.

32. NO: Navorro Bowman, OLB, Penn. St.
Saints love speed. Bowman isn't the biggest guy, but he has a motor, and did I say the Saints love speed?

DP's First Mock

1. St. Louis Rams: Sam Bradford, QB, OU
I think they feel the pressure to get a QB now and pick Bradford. The best case scenario is that the Rams trade the top pick(because I hear they haven't been high on Suh), but do to money issues they can't and pick Bradford.

2. Detroit Lions: Ndamukong Suh, DT, Nebraska
The Lions are pumped. and Suh wastes his first 4-5 years in Detroit.

3. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Gerald McCoy, DT, OU
I just can't see them taking a S Eric Berry this high, so they take who they supposed to in Gerald McCoy. McCoy is a great pass rusher as well as run stopper. Something the Bucs definitely need.

4. Washington Redskins: Russell Okung, OT, OK State
They need someone to protect Jason Campbell so he can finally bloom into the QB I think he can be.

5. Kansas City Chiefs: Anthony Davis, OT, Rutgers
Since they decided to go with Casell, they need to protect him. Davis can do that.

6. Seattle Seahawks: Eric Berry, S, Tennessee
The Seahwaks start wacking it, even though Dez Bryant, Brian Buluga or Jimmy Clausen could have been possible candidates. You can't pass Eric Berry at 6.

7. Cleveland Browns: Joe Haden, CB, Florida
Browns need some defensive help(along with every other position), but Haden is the 2nd pest defensive back in the draft. Too bad he will be a bust because he went to Florida.

8. Oakland Raiders: Jason Pierre-Paul, DE, USF
In a lot of drafts Pierre-Paul has shot up to be a top 5 players, so the Raiders get a very good quality pick here. Pierre Paul is extremely quick off the edge and we all know Al Davis loves speed.

9. Buffalo Bills: Jimmy Clausen, QB, ND
Has a lot of questions surrounding his lack of maturity and whether he already reached his potential peak. Buffalo is just happy to have a QB.

10. Denver Broncos: Dez Bryant, WR, OK State
Brandon Marshall is most likely a goner, so just add him with the best all around WR in the draft.

11. Jacksonville Jaguars: Brian Price, DT, UCLA
A lot of people have Morgan with the pick here, but Price will fit greatly into the Jaguars scheme and be a great 3-4 player. Plus he has a lot of upside.

12. Miami Dolphins: Ronaldo McClain, LB, Bama
Since Bryant is off the board, they get McClain who is a hell of a LB, and will end his career as a hall of famer. You can just tell he is going to be great due to his recognition skills.

13. San Francisco 49ers: Bryan Bulaga, OT, Iowa
Someone needs to protect whoever is the QB next year.

14. Seattle Seahawks (Denver): Everson Griffen, DE, USC
Consider their defense pretty much retooled. Between Griffen and Eric Berry Seattle is on their way.

15. New York Giants: Brandon Spikes, ILB, Florida
Spikes could go here, I think it's a little high, but the only reason I have him going to the Giants is my roommate Scott is a Giants and Florida fan. Plus I want him to witness another Florida player fail first hand.

16. San Francisco 49ers (Carolina): C.J. Spiller, RB, Clemson
A homerun threat and great compliment to Frank Gore. Were thinking about taking him at 13.

17. Tennessee Titans: Derrick Morgan, DE, Georgia Tech
I would love the Titans to pick a silly offensive player to help out Vince Young, but they need a lot of defensive help. Derrick Morgan is the guy here.

18. Pittsburgh Steelers: Dan Williams, DT, Tennessee
Casey Hampton will most likely be franchised this year and jet the year after. They find a perfect replacement in Williams.

19. Atlanta Falcons: Donovan Warren, CB, Michigan
Great pick here. They could have gone with Kyle ilson here, but who wants a Boise St. player when you could get a Michigan player.

20. Houston Texans: Taylor Mays, S, USC
Yea he has dropped a lot, but this is a hell of a grab for the Texans who were in far to many shootouts this year.

21. Cincinnati Bengals: Demaryius Thomas, WR, Georgia Tech
This is the biggest risk at WR, but also has the most upside. At 6'3 225 he gives Carson a nice target.

22. New England Patriots, Brandon Graham, OLB, Michigan
The Patriots must get younger at the LB spot and Brandon Graham will fit perfectly into their system.

23. Green Bay Packers: Trent Williams, OT, Oklahoma
PROTECT AARON RODGERS

24. Philadelphia Eagles: Javier Arenas, CB, Bama
Wanted Taylor Mays, but picked Javier Arenas.

25. Baltimore Ravens: Arrelious Benn*, WR, Illinois
Everything is pointing to them finding a WR for Flacco to throw too. Benn is their man here.

26. Arizona Cardinals: Bruce Campbell, OT, Maryland
They could go with a D lineman, but I would they prefer the best player available and that is Campbell. Not a bad guy to protect Lienart.

27. Dallas Cowboys: Sean Weatherspoon, OLB, Mizzou
Great quality pick here. Weatherspoon is a beast.

28. San Diego Chargers: Jonathan Dwyer, RB, GT
They need to get a guy who will be better than over rated and midget.

29. New York Jets: Charles Brown, T, USC
You can't risk bruising up Mark Sanchez's gorgeous face.

30. Minnesota Vikings: Maurkice Pouncey, G/C, Florida
When Brett Favre unretires, they are going need to protect his bruises.

31. Indianapolis Colts: Mike Iupati, G, Idaho
Fuck Peyton Manning

32. New Orleans Saints: Devin McCourty, CB, Rutgers
Ball hawking corners always welcome in New Orleans.

God damn that takes a long time

DC NBA Mock Draft

1. Clippers: Blake Griffin PF Oklahoma
Why not, he was the best college player this year, but there will be a log jam at the PF position with Chris Kaman, Zach Randolph and Blake Griffin. Expect a draft day trade from them.

2. Memphis Grizzlies: Hasheem Thabeet C UConn
I'm not a Thabeet fan, he lacks great offensive game, but he can defend. I guess a 7-3 guy can't hurt any team.

3. OKC Thunder: Ricky Rubio PG
I love Rubio. I would have loved the Celtics to get him, however, that won't happen. The Thunder are putting together a really good looking young team. With Westbrook, Durant and now Rubio.

4. Sacramento Kings: Tyreke Evans SG Memphis
Tyreke Evans WILL be the best player out of the draft. He needs work defensively, but as a pure scorer he is as talented as Kevin Durant. Also, Evans needs to realize he has 4 other teammates.

5. Minnesota Timberwolves: Stephen Curry PG Davidson

Curry will turn into a SG on the pro level because he doesn't have the ball handling skills that a pro PG needs. If he can keep his sweet shot and get a little bit more muscle on him, he will be in great shape.

6. Minnesota Timberwolves: Johnny Flynn PG Syracuse

Little Johnny Flynn comes off the board early to the Timberwolves, who have now secured their backcourt just fine. Since getting rid of Randy Foye they need a replacement, and Flynn and Curry will be more than able to take the reigns.

7. Golden State Warriors: Jordan Hill PF Arizona

I would have had them pick Lawson here, but since they traded for Acie Law and already have Monta Eliis who can play PG, I figured a big man will suffice. Hill can run up and down the court and that is exactly what Don Nelson will be asking from him.

8. New York Knicks: Jrue Holiday PG UCLA

Since the Knicks missed out on basically everybody, they will have to settle with Holiday or Jennings. The Knicks fans, will once again boo and they will have another bust on their hands.

9. Toronto Raptors: DeMar DeRozan SG USC

Since Marion and Anthony Parker are gone, they need a good swingman, and in this boys eyes DeRozan is the most talented one left.

10. Milwaukee Bucks: James Harden SG Arizona State

Harden will fill in nicely for Richard Jefferson, who was just traded to the Spurs.

11. New Jersey Nets: Terrence Williams SG Louisville

I love Terrence Williams and I love this pick. Even though the Nets really don't care what happens until 2010 They have done a great job drafting.

12. Charlotte Bobcats: Gerald Henderson SG Duke

Another swing and miss for Jordan and the Bobcats.

13. Indiana Pacers: Eric Maynor PG VCU

This was a tough decision between Lawson and Maynor, but the Pacers will ultimately choose Maynor for his length and toughness, and durability.

14. Phoenix Suns: B.J. Mullins Ohio State C
Mullins really needed to stay in school another year, but he left because his family was broke. But since the Suns got rid of Shaq they need another big man, and Mullins will have that shot in Phoenix.

15. Detroit Pistons: Earl Clark SF Louisville
I believe Earl Clark is the most verastile player in this draft and if he develops a ridiculous work ethic he can turn into being the best player in the draft. However, that is a big if.

16. Chicago Bulls: James Johnson PF Wake Forest
He is perfect for the Bulls run and gun style offense and will be a welcomed addition.

17. Philadelphia 76ers: Ty Lawson PG UNC
With Andre Miller hitting free agency, they need to fill that hole and Ty Lawson will be a great replacement. Although I question his height and durability he is the best pg left on the board.

18. Minnesota Timberwovles: Austin Daye SF Gonzaga

Daye is one of the most skilled players in the draft -- sort of a 6-foot-11 version of Tayshaun Prince. He's super skinny, but he can really shoot the rock.

19. Atlanta Hawks: Brandon Jennings PG

Jennings went over to Europe because he said fuck college, and it worked for him. Sure he isn't getting drafted in the lottery, but getting drafted in the first round is still good. He will fill the shoes of Mike Bibby easily.

20. Utah Jazz: Tyler Hansbrough PF UNC

Of course they pick him. He is white.

21. New Orleans Hornets: Sam Young SF Pittsburgh

Even though the Hornets are in desperate need of a big man, Sam Young is the most NBA ready player in this draft. The Boy can flat out score and will be a big asset on spreading the ball out for CP.

22. Portland Trailblazers: DeJuan Blair PF Pittsburgh
Blair is a beast, and absolutely tore it up in college. I don't know if he will be able to do that in the NBA because he is undersized, but I see him making more of an impact than Hansbrough.

23. Sacramento Kings: Omri Casspi SF Israel

Because he can stay in Israel for a couple of years, while the Kings figure shit out.

24. Mavericks: Jeff Teague PG Wake
25. Thunder: Chase Buddinger SG Arizona
26. Bulls: Nick Calathis PG Florida
27. Memphis: DeMarre Carroll SF Mizzou
28. Timberwolves: Jonas Jerebko SF Sweden
29. Lakers: Some PG
30. Cavs: Taj Gibson PF USC
