YOU are on the clock... [2012 collaborative mock draft]

Jim Schwartz throws a chair across the Lion's war room with the selection of Ben Jones just a pick ahead of theirs.... nevertheless center is a desperate need and must be addressed...

The Detroit Lions Select-

Michael Brewster- C, Ohio St.

Pittsburgh Steelers select.................. CB Jamell Fleming Oklahoma

The Steelers have FA and age concerns at CB. Fleming may step right into a starting role

After foolishly trading away Brandon Lloyd for peanuts in what turned out to be a playoff year, the Broncos decide to invest in Tebow and give him another target to throw to. The Denver Broncos select....

Marvin McNutt- WR, Iowa

Mario Williams is a FA. If he leaves, rush LB becomes a big need.
The Houston Texans select: Shea McClellin, OLB, Boise State

Saints, needing DL help, select Jared Crick, DE, Nebraska.

The Green Bay Packers select................. OLB BRUCE IRVIN West Virginia


GB adds its 3rd defensive player and gives them a pass rusher opposite Clay Matthews.

Harbaugh East aka the Ravens select Nate Potter OT Boise State

With all of the third round worthy pass rushers off the board, the 49ers make this PHENOMENAL value pick that provides them great flexibility across the offensive line.

The 49ers select:

Andrew Datko- OT, Florida St.



Datko is a better player than his teammate Zebrie Sanders who went in the 2nd, but injuries in his senior year push him back to the end of the 3rd. Once considered a top ten pick, Datko provides great value here and offers great felxibility in being able to0 make adjustments on our OL (can bump him in to RG or bump Anthony Davis into RG while putting Datko at RT). Between, Staley, Davis, Datko, Iupati and Boone we have great versatility at our tackle/guard positions for years to come.

The New England Patriots get their version of Percy Harvin in the versatile, explosive WR/KR/PR/ST speed demon out of Florida, Chris Rainey.

The New York Giants select.... RB LaMicheal James Oregon

The Giants have pretty much everything on offense except an explosive quick home run running back. James will give them that.

Rams kickoff the 4th by selecting more OL help. They take nasty lineman Tony Bergstrom, OT, Utah.

Colts need WR help for Andrew Luck, so they go with the fast-rising Cal star Marvin Jones.

The Minnesota Vikings select:

Marcus Forston, DT, Miami

Eagles further bolster their LB corps with the selection of Nigel Bradham, OLB, Florida State.
