Mock Draft Updated as of 1/1/12: Rounds 1-5 from drafttek.com

[coldrolled]

I think they have to go D with the first pick... But who knows!!

Bens still getting sacked and not healthy all year.. Warmack or Cooper would be good.
ILB in the 2nd round Kasheen Greene.

[JensK]

As for ILB, I really like Teo, Skov and Minter. I would not at all be sad should Minter fall to us in the second though in all fairness I doubt he will.

[USMC607]

Minter would be nice.. But if Ed Lacy is there in the 2nd i reallllly want him and there is no way he falls to us in the 3rd.

[USMC607]

if we go OLB in the 1st and grab lacy (if hes there) in the 2nd. I think we could get a decent ILB in later rounds tho like you said SKOV in the 3rd, you also got Riddick, Mauti. etc

[JensK]

I would be shocked to see Skov there when we pick in the third. I know a lot of sites have him ranked as a third-day kind of player, but I could easily see him going late in the second. Plenty of teams in need of a good ILB, and the class is not too deep this year.

[NeilPatrickBanana]

unless we are changing defenses (we are not), i don't see ILB as a top 3 round need. pass rushers, safety, wr, rb are much bigger needs.

but if i had to spend a early pick on an ilb, i'd want minter

[Real Deal Steel]

pass rushers, safety and nose tackle. Those look to be the biggest needs.

I don't see Teo getting past the Bills at # 8. They need LB's like crazy.

I think Mingo will fall to us at # 17 and that would be an outstanding get. And I think everyone would be happy with that. But some scouts are saying that Mike Adams will end up being a right tackle for the remainder of his career. If that be the case, then Taylor Lewan (MIchigan) will still be on the board and he could be our future at left tackle.

[JensK]

They still like Gilbert, and he has been solid when playing, so they might give him a chance on left tackle before they draft anything

[Real Deal Steel]

Well, if they stay with Adams,

Other then Mingo, I really like that John Jenkins (nose tackle from Georgia). God knows that we need help at nose tackle and Jenkins is a beast at 6'4" 363 pounds. He looks like a Steelers. LOL. And Jenkins can help us right away. No disrespect to Mcclendon.

[JensK]

I would love Mingo or any good passrusher really, but a great NT would be most welcome as well. After all, in our system the LBs are only as good as the 3 guys up front.
