2012 NFL Mock Draft: Round 7

Last update: Thursday, April 26, 2012, 3:30 p.m. Changes in all 7 rounds.
Next updates: Final (barring major trade in next couple of hours).
Follow me @walterfootball for updates.

The order of this 2012 NFL Mock Draft is based on the real 2012 NFL Draft Order.

Indianapolis Colts: Matt Conrath, DE/DT, Virginia

The Colts will be spending a few late-round picks on pieces for their new 3-4.

St. Louis Rams: Tyler Nielsen, OLB, Iowa

Another linebacker to help St. Louis' depth problems at the position.

Minnesota Vikings: D.J. Campbell, S, California

Yet another defensive back for the Vikings, who need all the help they can get in that area.

Cleveland Browns: Ernest Owusu, DE, California

Frostee Rucker and Juqua Thomas-Parker were two pretty weak additions to the defensive front. Help is still needed here.

Pick change; previously Christian Thompson, S

Tampa Bay Buccaneers: David Gonzales, OT, Washington State

The Buccaneers have to find a long-term answer at right tackle. I'm not sure this qualifies, but they might as well try.

Washington Redskins: Jerry Franklin, ILB, Arkansas

The Redskins currently need depth at inside linebacker. And soon enough, they'll need a successor for London Fletcher.

Indianapolis Colts: Adrien Robinson, TE, Cincinnati

Another intermediate target for Andrew Luck, who loved working with multiple tight ends at Stanford.

Miami Dolphins: Darius Reynolds, WR, Iowa State

The Dolphins will probably spend two picks on receivers in the 2012 NFL Draft. It's a dire position of need.

Carolina Panthers: Tim Benford, WR, Tennessee Tech

The Panthers could target another receiver late in the 2012 NFL Draft. They've shown interest in Tim Benford.

Buffalo Bills: Danny Trevathan, OLB, Kentucky

Buffalo could use two selections on linebackers considering the lack of depth it has there.

Kansas City Chiefs: Andrew Datko, OT, Florida State

The Chiefs signed Eric Winson, but they could go after another tackle because Branden Albert is entering his contract year.

Detroit Lions: Vontaze Burfict, ILB, Arizona State

I know this is another linebacker... but maybe the Lions will just see this as incredible value. They did say that they weren't going to factor in marijuana usage.

Chicago Bears: Dennis Kelly, OT, Purdue

The Bears are looking at Dennis Kelly, who would fit Mike Tice's blocking scheme perfectly.

Arizona Cardinals: Emmanuel Acho, LB, Texas

The Cardinals need to bring in someone to push Stewart Bradley and Paris Lenon.

Pick change; previously Christian Thompson, S

Dallas Cowboys: Korey Toomer, ILB, Idaho

Dallas lost Bradie James, so Jerry Jones will probably use a late-round selection on depth.

Minnesota Vikings: Lionel Smith, CB, Texas A&M

I'm running out of ways to say that the Vikings need help in their secondary.

Green Bay Packers: Jeremy Lane, CB, Northwestern State

The Packers have four seventh-round selections, so they'll be doubling up on some positions. Jeremy Lane fits their scheme.

Seattle Seahawks: Josh Bellamy, CB, Louisville

The Seahawks haven't added a cornerback yet. They may do so in the latter stages this weekend.

San Diego Chargers: Chris Rainey, RB/KR, Florida

Another running back, but this one serves a different purpose. Philip Rivers (or if you want to be politically correct, Philip Frey) really misses Darren Sproles. Why not spend a pick on a similar-type player?

Tennessee Titans: William Vlachos, C, Alabama

The Titans signed Steve Hutchinson, but they still need upgrades at right guard and center to maximize Chris Johnson's potential.

Jacksonville Jaguars: Ronnie Cameron, DT, Old Dominion

Some more defensive line help. The Jaguars have shown interest in this prospect.

Detroit Lions: Bryce Brown, RB, Kansas State

Bryce Brown was a top college recruit, but flamed out at Tennessee and Kansas State. He's worth a shot in Round 7. The Lions need running back depth considering their lack of depth at the position.

Philadelphia Eagles: Chas Alecxih, DT, Pittsburgh

The Eagles have a billion picks, so they're going to be doubling up on some positions.

Pick change; previously Kourtnei Brown, DE (ATL)

Pittsburgh Steelers: Jerrell Harris, ILB, Alabama

Another Alabama inside linebacker. This one will provide depth behind the other one.

New York Jets: Cameron Collins, ILB, Oregon State

Bart Scott won't be around much longer, so Rex Ryan will need to find a successor.

Houston Texans: Randy Bullock, K, Texas A&M

The Texans don't have a kicker on their roster, so they'll obviously need to find one.

New Orleans Saints: Darrion Weems, OT, Oregon

The Saints have shown interest in Darrion Weems. That makes sense because they need tackle depth.

Green Bay Packers: Scott Solomon, DE/OLB, Rice

The Packers really need to upgrade their pass rush.

Baltimore Ravens: Buddy Jackson, CB, Pittsburgh

The Ravens have only three cornerbacks under contract who saw a good amount of snaps last year. One is Cary Williams, who is coming off hip surgery. Baltimore could use help at corner, and you can never have enough good ones.

San Francisco 49ers: Duke Ihenacho, SS, San Jose State

The 49ers don't have much depth at safety, so they may use a late-round pick to change that.

Kansas City Chiefs: Jordan White, WR, Western Michigan

Steve Breaston won't be on the team beyond 2012 because he'll be owed $3.8 million the following season. The Chiefs will need a receiver ready to step in by 2013.

New York Giants: Austin Davis, QB, Southern Miss

The Giants don't have a young quarterback to groom behind Eli Manning.

Pittsburgh Steelers: Kelvin Beachum, G, SMU

More depth for Pittsburgh's shaky interior offensive line.

Green Bay Packers: Chase Baker, DE/DT, Boise State

The Packers have shown interest in Chase Baker, who would provide some depth on the defensive line.

New York Jets: Jeff Adams, OT, Columbia

The Jets re-signed Wayne Hunter, but they'd be crazy not to bring in some competition for him.

Green Bay Packers: Trevor Coston, ST/S, Maine

The Packers have tons of seventh-round picks, so they'll be using at least one to primarily bolster their special teams.

New York Jets: Josh Bush, S, Wake Forest

More safety help for the Jets. They really need help in this area.

Cleveland Browns: Brian Stahovich, P, San Diego State

Punter Reggie Hodges is coming off a torn Achilles tendon.

Pittsburgh Steelers: Jeremy Jones, CB, Wayne State

The Steelers haven't added a cornerback yet. They've shown interest in Jeremy Jones.

Cleveland Browns: Steven Baker, OT, East Carolina

The Browns are really thin at offensive tackle. A very late pick could be used for help even if an earlier one is spent on the same position.

Pittsburgh Steelers: John Hughes, DE/DT, Cincinnati

The Steelers lost Aaron Smith and won't have Brett Kiesel much longer.

Atlanta Falcons: Kellen Moore, QB, Boise State

Kellen Moore can challenge John Parker Wilson to be Matt Ryan's backup in the future.

San Diego Chargers: Brad Smelley, TE, Alabama

Will Antonio Gates ever last an entire season? It's highly likely that Gates will suffer some sort of malady next year, so here's some insurance.

Buffalo Bills: Quentin Saulsberry, C, Mississippi State

The Bills could stand to find a capable backup behind Eric Wood at center. Colin Brown has just one career start.

St. Louis Rams: Jacquies Smith, DE, Missouri

I'm sure Jeff Fisher will want to draft a defensive end to add to his rotation.

Indianapolis Colts: Matt Johnson, SS, Eastern Washington

Mr. Irrelevant provides more help for Indianapolis' putrid secondary. Some competition is needed behind Tom Zbikowski.

well when you play 1 or 2 BCS-tie-in teams a year, those records don't really matter. Like Keenum too, he mainly looked good cuz half of the schedule was playing high schools

somebody please help me, i cant figure this out, why has kellen moore not been drafted, and dont give me his size crap. he killed all most every ncaa record there was. this just tells me that the nfl is a bunch of retards (miami)

good call on osweiler to the broncos, a round later than they did but still this is a tough science. hell you're better than mel kiper which isn't saying much ha ha

@People that disliked my status a couple statements down. HAHAHAHAAHHA
Told you Bucs would move up if Lavonte David fell.

McLovin 04-27-2012 08:31 pm xxx.xxx.xxx.234 (total posts: 2)

Do the Seahawks know what they are doing? Every year they draft guys that don't fit their system and end up being busts. Reaching again this year instead of taking the best available player.

@Ravens 04-27-2012 06:33 pm xxx.xxx.xxx5.43 (total posts: 4)

I hate Floyd to Cardinals 3 months ago. Anyone could've seen Poe to Chiefs after the combine, they had a need at NT and second best guy for that wouldn't be until late second early 3rd, while guards are plentiful in this draft. And all Bucs fans know we'd trade from 5 to 7 been saying that myself for months, as soon as Rams got that 6 the entire league new they were targeting Blackmon due to the spot they choose, so why wouldn't someone jump them? But have to say people shouldn't bash him, not because his picks which are mostly off, but they should praise them because the do give you all players that could be drafted and let people go check out some of these guys the common fan wouldn't know about unless that player played ball in their area.

Will 04-27-2012 06:29 pm xxx.xxx.xxx5.43 (total posts: 4)

Disappointing you didn't change the Bucs not jumping up to get Lavonte David when his the only OLB left around that area, they'll must definitely trade up to get one of their guys if they feel they'll get taken, see last night Doug Martin before Giants.

Waltersanidiot 04-27-2012 03:51 pm xxx.xxx.xxx7.39 (total posts: 7)

Come on Walter! Browns are goin WR 2nd rd for sure! I we passed on reiff and decastro to get Weeden then we are gettin a wr for sure. Alshon Jeffrey, stephen hill, ruben randle, or sanu are all on their radar. We are goin offensive weapons this draft. Its pretty obvious. Then expect a lb or a rt in the 3rd rd. then we draft best player available. If Weeden turns out great look out for the Browns! They already have a top 10 defense that may be better than that, so we could be gunning for the playoffs. Only real issue is they didnt grab winston justice in free agency. Go browns! Lets contend! I hope Weeden is a beast! Please....

Vikings should take 04-27-2012 03:20 pm xxx.xxx.xxx.167 (total posts: 1)

Lavonte David if he's still on the board. If they do take WR I would take Sanu over McNutt.

Dave is a doofus 04-27-2012 02:42 pm xxx.xxx.xxx.222 (total posts: 2)

What the **** Marvin mcnutt holds a lot of iowa recieving records and they have three good alumni WR that made the NFL. Wow your crazy

Wow, Past Confused! You're kind a tard, y'know?

Dave 04-27-2012 02:03 pm xxx.xxx.xxx5.65 (total posts: 1)

Doubt the Vikings go with WR in the early third. Especially McNutt who doesn't offer great value at that position.

Because of the change with the CBA with the rookie salary cap I believe it will be the end of MockDraft outside the Top10 picks 19picks in only the 1stRd I don't recall having that many trades in the first 2Rds last year, this is going to have a huge impact on how teams can adapt to the draft

@Everyone Bashing Walt------- His MockDraft doesnt look to good right now but at one point he did have the Jags-Blackmon Bills-Gilmore Chiefs-Poe and Cardinals-Floyd it actually came out pretty good considering the fact that there was 19 TRADES!!! Who would have guessed though it doesn't surprise me that the Seahawks would reach a RD ahead to take a player like Bruce and did anyone have AJJenkins in the 1st I didn't think so
