Walt12 mins
Last update: Thursday, Jan. 16, 2014. Round 4 added.
Next update: Next week. Follow me @walterfootball for updates.

The order of this 2014 NFL Mock Draft was based on the full, seven-round 2014 NFL Draft Order, which can be viewed by clicking the link.


    *** THIS IS A LIVE 2014 NFL MOCK DRAFT. PICKS ARE BEING POSTED NOW. TO SEE PREVIOUS VERSIONS, CHECK OUT THE ARCHIVED 2014 NFL MOCK DRAFT SECTION. FOLLOW @walterfootball FOR UPDATES ***

  1. Houston Texans: E.J. Gaines, CB, Missouri
    Brice McCain was a huge disappointment in 2013, so the Texans will want to add a cornerback at some point during the middle rounds.

    Follow @walterfootball for updates.

  2. Washington Redskins: Jared Abbrederis, WR, Wisconsin
    The Redskins must improve their defense, but they also have to focus on upgrading the receiver position. A No. 2 wideout is needed.

  3. Atlanta Falcons: Daniel McCullers, NT, Tennessee
    The Falcons have three defensive tackles with expiring contracts, including Corey Peters, a run-stuffer who tore his Achilles in December. A replacement is needed.

  4. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Anthony Johnson, DT, LSU
    Akeem Spence had a disappointing rookie campaign playing next to Gerald McCoy, capped off by an arrest for marijuana possession. The Buccaneers may want to bring in another interior defensive lineman.



  5. Jacksonville Jaguars: Brent Urban, DE/DT Virginia
    Surprise, surprise, Tyson Alualu struggled at left end in Jacksonville’s new scheme. An upgrade here is needed for the league’s worst pass rush.

  6. Cleveland Browns: Keith McGill, CB, Utah
    Like most teams, the Browns need depth at corner. I’m sure they wouldn’t mind an eventual upgrade over Buster Skrine either.

  7. Oakland Raiders: Anthony Steen, G, Alabama
    The Raiders need multiple upgrades on their offensive line. Lucas Nix might be the worst starting guard in the NFL, so he needs to be replaced.

  8. Minnesota Vikings: Calvin Barnett, DT, Oklahoma State
    The Vikings used one of three first-rounders on a defensive tackle last year, but they may have to double dip at the position with Kevin Williams hitting free agency.

  9. Buffalo Bills: Morgan Breslin, DE/OLB, USC
    Jerry Hughes’ great 2013 campaign came out of nowhere. The Bills should probably obtain some insurance just in case it was a fluke. They could use depth at linebacker anyway.

  10. St. Louis Rams: George Uko, DT, USC
    Kendall Langford probably won’t be on St. Louis’ roster beyond the 2014 season, so it’ll be in the front office’s best interest to acquire a potential future starter at the position.

  11. Detroit Lions: Demarcus Lawrence, DE/OLB, Boise State
    Willie Young is a free agent. If he’s not retained, Detroit will have to find someone to compete with Devin Taylor as the starter across from Ziggy Ansah. The loser of that battle will provide depth.

  12. Tennessee Titans: Jeremy Hill, RB, LSU
    There have been reports indicating that Chris Johnson will be cut this offseason. If that’s the case, Tennessee will obviously be searching for a new lead running back.



  13. New York Giants: Aaron Lynch, DE, South Florida
    Justin Tuck is a free agent, so the Giants will need another pass-rusher if he moves on. Taking a defensive end out of South Florida worked well before.

  14. Jacksonville Jaguars: Corey Moore, S, Georgia
    Jacksonville’s secondary struggled throughout the 2013 season. The team has a huge hole at safety next to Johnathan Cyprien that needs to be filled.

  15. New York Jets: Tre Boston, S, North Carolina
    Charlie Campbell reported that Ted Thompson showed interest in Tre Boston, so I’ll probably be moving the North Carolina safety up in my next mock. For now, Boston would fill a big need in New York’s putrid secondary.

  16. Miami Dolphins: Kelcy Quarles, DT, South Carolina
    Miami could lose at least one starting defensive tackle this offseason, as Paul Soliai and Randy Starks are both impending free agents.

  17. Chicago Bears: Chris Smith, DE, Arkansas
    As I wrote in the Chicago Bears team needs page, Julius Peppers, coming off a disappointing 7.5-sack campaign, counts more than $18 million against the cap. It’s sounding like he could be let go. If that’s the case, a replacement will be needed.

  18. Pittsburgh Steelers: Billy Turner, OT, North Dakota State
    Kelvin Beachum played well at left tackle to close out the season, but the Steelers might want to add some insurance.

  19. Dallas Cowboys: Jordan Richards, S, Stanford
    Dallas had horrible safety play all year. An upgrade in this area would have allowed it to beat Philadelphia in Week 17.

  20. Arizona Cardinals: Andre Williams, RB, Boston College
    Rashard Mendenhall is a free agent, but that’s for the best because he stinks. The Cardinals have to find someone to split carries with Andre Ellington.



  21. Green Bay Packers: Chris Borland, ILB, Wisconsin
    The Packers released Desmond Bishop during the previous offseason. On top of that, the rapidly aging A.J. Hawk will have an expiring contract soon. Ted Thompson will have to address the inside linebacker position in the near future.

  22. Philadelphia Eagles: Ed Reynolds, S, Stanford
    The Eagles will need to address the safety position twice if Nate Allen isn’t re-signed. That’s how terrible the back end of their defense was.

  23. Cincinnati Bengals: Deandre Coleman, DT, California
    Domata Peko, who will be entering his contract season in 2014, has not performed well this year. Meanwhile, Devon Still, a 2012 second-rounder, has shown nothing thus far.

  24. Kansas City Chiefs: Adrian Hubbard, DE/OLB, Alabama
    The Chiefs found out the hard way that they don’t have much behind Tamba Hali and Justin Houston. That needs to change.



  25. San Diego Chargers: JuWuan James, OT, Tennessee
    Jeromey Clary had to play tackle when King Dunlap got hurt. This cannot be allowed to happen again.

  26. New Orleans Saints: James Hurst, OT, North Carolina
    Terron Armstead looked great at left tackle to close out the season, but he’s an unknown. Zach Strief is a free agent. The Saints may want to use a Round 3-5 selection on a tackle.

  27. Cleveland Browns: Rob Herron, WR, Wyoming
    If Greg Little is “Mr. Dependable,” does Brad Nessler call Davone Bess “Mr. Ultra Dependable?” Bess was even worse than Little this past season, so a second selection on a receiver could be used.

  28. Carolina Panthers: Kapri Bibbs, RB, Colorado State
    Cam Newton has made huge improvements this year, but he could still really benefit from a potent, pass-catching weapon coming out of the backfield.

  29. San Francisco 49ers: Stephen Morris, QB, Miami
    Jim Harbaugh may want to groom a backup behind Colin Kaepernick. He could also develop a quarterback and trade him.

  30. New England Patriots: Bene Benwikere, CB, San Jose State
    The Patriots will need depth at cornerback behind Alfonzo Dennard and Logan Ryan if free agent Aqib Talib walks.

  31. Denver Broncos: Jaylen Watkins, CB, Florida
    You have to wonder what the Broncos plan on doing at cornerback in 2014 and beyond. Champ Bailey and Quentin Jammer will be 36 and 35, respectively, in June. Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, meanwhile, will be a free agent in March.

  32. Seattle Seahawks: Will Sutton, DT, Arizona State
    The Seahawks are always looking to bolster their pass rush. Will Sutton would’ve been considered a steal here a year ago, but he’s coming off a down season.
