2012 NFL Mock Draft Pick 32

With the 32nd pick in the 2012 NFL Draft the New York Giants select:

Kendall Reyes, DT/DE, UCONN

The Giants need help on the offensive side of the ball, particularly at G and TE but neither are available here.  Look for the Giants to trade up with San Francisco and take Colby Fleener.  If they stay put I think they will add depth to their greatest strength.  They are set at DE with a lot of depth but lack depth at DT.  Reyes is a guy not much is known about but he is a big, fast, very versatile defensive lineman.  Good add a great compliment to Chris Canty and last years first round pick Marvin Austin.  

The First round of the NFL Draft has come to a close.

2012 NFL Mock Draft Pick 31

With the 31st pick in the 2012 NFL Draft the New England Patriots select:

Andre Branch, DE/OLB, Clemson

With this pick the Pats will again address their pass rush.  Branch is another versatile guy that is able to line up at OLB or DE and when paired with Chandler Jones this could be a deadly duo for opponents.  It wouldn’t surprise anyone for Bill to trade out of this spot and get more picks, but I think it is time the Pats address the pass rush and make sure they get a multitude of it.

2012 NFL Mock Draft Pick 30

With the 30th pick in the 2012 NFL Draft the San Fransisco 49ers select:

Coby Fleener, TE, Stanford

The 49ers needs include WR,OT,OG, and at this point in the draft there isn’t any available worth taking in the first round.  It’s best available for Jim Harbaugh in this year’s first round.  A great fit for the 49ers as Harbaugh gets his old player to go opposite of Vernon Davis.  Fleener shocked a lot of people at the Stanford Pro Day because of how athletic he was.  Fleener ran a 4.46 40 time and stands at 6-6 247.  He is very similar to Vernon Davis and no one knows his better than Jim Harbaugh.  Alex Smith is a happy man and the

2012 NFL Mock Draft Pick 29

With the 29th pick in the 2012 NFL Draft the Baltimore Ravens select:

Donta Hightower, ILB, BAMA

(Pan Right and see Ray Lewis Dancing)  Steal is the only word to describe this pick.  Hightower is very talented and did nothing but produce against the best competition in college football for 3 years.  Hightower is a monster and belongs in the top 15 pick.  The Raven bring youth to the line backing corps and line up Ray Lewis’ predecessor.

2012 NFL Mock Draft Pick 28

With the 28th pick in the 2012 NFL Draft the Green Bay Packers select:

Nick Perry, DE/OLB, USC

Outside of Clay Mathews, the Pack’s pass rush is nonexistent.  Nick Perry is an under the radar guy that I think can be very productive next to Matthews.  At 6-3, 250, Perry is a monster, he ran a 4.64 and had a 38.5 vertical, these numbers are impressive for a guy his size.  He’s quick, strong and explosive, why wouldn’t he be appealing to a team that has no pass rush.

2012 NFL Mock Draft Pick 27

With the 27th pick in the 2012 NFL Draft the New England Patriots select:

Chandler Jones, DE/OLB, SU

Chandler Jones is Bill Belichick’s type of player, endless motor with great athleticism.  Versatility is key to the Patriots and that is the definition of Jones.  The Pats need a pass rush bad and they have two chances here at the back end of the first round to grab two very good pass rushers, the first being Jones.  He is very raw and doesn’t have a lot of experience, but there is no better person in the NFL at developing raw talent than Bill.

2012 NFL Mock Draft Pick 26

With the 26th pick in the 2012 NFL Draft the Houston Texans select:

Stephen Hill, WR, GT

There are 4 top tier receivers in this class and Hill is the last one.  The Texans have always lacked a solid #2 behind Andre Johnson.  The obvious pick here is Hightower to replace recently traded Demeco Ryans.  I just think it is a lot harder to find a top receiver than a consistent MLB.  Matt Schaub is nearing his end and he wants to win, he will have a lot of push for an offensive weapon especially with offensive minded Gary Kubiak.
