Not very great, as this is my first one. But here goes nothing:

1. Houston Texans: Jadevon Clowney, DE, South Carolina
Easy pick here. Clowney is the best player in this draft, and pairing him with JJ Watt will make for a deadly defense.

2. St. Louis Rams: Greg Robinson, OT, Auburn
The Rams have the second pick in the draft, and there is only one critical need: offensive lineman. Greg Robinson will do very nicely in the Rams offense.

3. Jacksonville Jaguars: Blake Bortles, QB, UCF
Bortles and Manziel are tied in my opinion for best quarterback, but Bortles is the safer pick here. He has great pocket presence and has the ability to scramble if he has too. He is Andrew Luck 2.0.

4. Cleveland Browns : Johnny Manziel, QB, Texas A&M
The most exciting playmaker in this draft-or maybe ever-is a very risky pick. With being known to be a "run first" QB, Manziel still put up great numbers against SEC defenses with his passing. He will either be looked at as one of the greatest QB's of all time or one of the biggest busts.

5. Oakland Raiders : Sammy Watkins, WR, Clemson
Raiders do not have any QB's right now, but that can wait in this quarterback rich draft class. Sammy Watkins is by far the best wide out in this draft, and the Raiders will not pass that up.

6. Atlanta Falcons : Jake Matthews, OT, Texas A&M
After a disappointing season last year, the Atlanta Falcons are looking to rebuild back into championship calibar. That will all start with a great offensive tackle like Jake Matthews.

7. Tampa Bay Buccaneers : Mike Evans, WR, Texas A&M
The Bucs almost have all the pieces together to be great, but they are lacking a great offense. With a playmaker like Evans, they can surely become a playoff team 5 years down the line.

8. Minnesota Vikings : Derek Carr, QB, Fresno State
Derek Carr has been skyrocketing up the draft boards after throwing for 5,082 yards and 50 TD's, with 4.6 speed. Teams may be worried because of his level of competition in the Mountain West Conference, but this is just another player that you cannot pass up.

9. Buffalo Bills : Taylor Lewan, OT, Michigan
The Bills could go a number of ways here. They could add another WR for EJ Manuel to work with, or even another running back to pound the rock for the Bills. But they will most likely get Lewan, as they have hardly any depth at tackle.

10. Detroit Lions : Darqueze Dennard, CB, Michigan State
Dennard is a playmaker. After having 62 tackles, 4 interceptions, 10 pass deflections, 2 forced fumbles, and the Jim Thorpe Award, given annually to the NCAA's best defensive back, the Lions will surely not pass him up. He is the missing piece to the Lions playoff calibar team.

11. Tennessee Titans : Bishop Sankey, RB, Washington
After getting rid of Chris Johnson, the Titans will start fresh with a new running back. Bishop Sankey will fit in the Titans offense nicely, and if they get a offensive lineman in the next couple of rounds, he will have many great years ahead of him.

12. New York Giants : Eric Ebron, TE, North Carolina
The absolute best TE in this draft, Eric Ebron will give Eli Manning a great target until the end of his career.

13. St. Louis Rams : Justin Gilbert, CB, Oklahoma State
The Rams will go defense with their 2nd first-round pick, and Justin Gilbert is a great corner who makes plays.

14. Chicago Bears : Timmy Jernigan, DT, Florida State
After having a monster game in the National Championship against a SEC offense, Jernigan will fit nicely with the Bears.

15. Pittsburgh Steelers : Marqise Lee, WR, USC
Even after having a disappointing year in 2013, Lee is one of the top wide receivers in this draft. With the Steelers having little depth at WR, Lee will surely be the #1 receiver next season for Roethlisberger.


16. Dallas Cowboys : Ha Ha Clinton-Dix, FS, Alabama
17. Baltimore Ravens : Calvin Pryor, FS, Louisville
18. New York Jets : Austin Seferian-Jenkins, TE, Washington
19. Miami Dolphins : C.J. Mosley, ILB, Alabama
20. Arizona Cardinals : Odell Beckham Jr., WR, LSU
21. Green Bay Packers : Khalil Mack, OLB, Buffalo
22. Philadelphia Eagles : Kelvin Benjamin, WR, Florida State
23. Kansas City Chiefs : Brandin Cooks, WR, Oregon State
24. Cincinnati Bengals : Kyle Fuller, CB, Virginia Tech
25. San Diego Chargers : Aaron Donald, DT, Pittsburgh
26. Cleveland Browns : Cody Latimer, WR, Indiana
27. New Orleans Saints : Ryan Shazier, OLB, Ohio State
28. Carolina Panthers : Jordan Matthews, WR, Vanderbilt
29. New England Patriots : Louis Nix III, DT, Notre Dame
30. San Francisco 49ers : Jarvis Landry, WR, LSU
31. Denver Broncos : Anthony Barr, OLB, UCLA
32. Seattle Seahawks : Jace Amaro, TE, Texas Tech

Clowney to Houston makes sense, but they gotta get a quarterback right?

Sankey is a little high, but I could see a scenario where he sneaks into the bottom of the 1st round somewhere.

Mayock does have him as the best RB in the draft and the Titans really need a RB, so it's not tooooo far of a stretch, but still a stretch. He could end up with the Titans, but my guess is that they would trade down in the 1st or select him in the 2nd round if that were to happen.

Yeah, I agree with you. I guess I was just thinking a fast runner would work for the Titans, but they could always pick Hyde. I also think I put Mack a little low, but it could be something that happens.

Why does everyone think people care about their mock draft?

I really hope all of the QBs fall out of the top eight.
