Okay, I am not going to lie, I had a tough time with this draft. The back end of this draft is so interchangable that i struggled to find who goes where. I honestly don't feel like Hightower will slip to Baltimore but this is the scenario that would take place if he were to fall to Baltimore. I honestly expect them to trade out. I have Stephen Hill going to the Giants because they lost Manningham to San Fran and Konz to Denver because they need some interior lineman. I could have gone Zeitler or a couple of other players late in this round, I just believe it's tough to predict. I know some people are going to laugh at this mock draft but I struggled with it.

Some predictions:

Tampa trades first and second round pick to Minnesota to draft Claiborne.

Miami trades 1st and 3rd for rams sixth pick to get tannehill...rams draft Floyd

Kendall Wright falls out of first round

Ravens will want to trade but they won't find a partner...and they end up with a pro bowler..I think Hightower is who they want but they aren't trading up to get him.

Everyone needs to disregard my mock draft. I will be putting a new one on tomorrow because I disregarded Tannehill (although I do not think he will be that good anyway).
