The time has finally come for the 2014 NFL Draft. Everyone has their mock drafts and everyone knows that they will be wrong but they do it anyway. There will be trades so the teams in the positions they are now won’t all likely be there when the pick actually arrives but for the time being, this is if no trades happen. Here are my previous attempts at this in March and April leading up to this final mock draft. Here is how I see the first round of the 2014 NFL Draft shaping up.
- Houston Texans- Jadeveon Clowney, DE, South Carolina
- St. Louis Rams- Greg Robinson, OT, Auburn
- Jacksonville Jaguars- Khalil Mack, LB, Buffalo
- Cleveland Browns- Johnny Manziel, QB, Texas A&M
- Oakland Raiders- Sammy Watkins, WR, Clemson
- Atlanta Falcons- Jake Matthews, OT, Texas A&M
- Tampa Bay Buccaneers- Mike Evans, WR, Texas A&M
- Minnesota Vikings- Blake Bortles, QB, Central Florida
- Buffalo Bills- Taylor Lewan, OT, Michigan
- Detroit Lions- Justin Gilbert, CB, Oklahoma State

- San Francisco 49ers- Kelvin Benjamin, WR, Florida State
- Denver Broncos- Jason Verrett, CB, TCU
- Seattle Seahawks- Austin Seferian-Jenkins, TE, Washington
A look at this shows that there is no Teddy Bridgewater in the first round and he is more likely to be taken with the first pick of the second round by the Texans if nothing else happens in front of them during the first round. It’s now time to wait and see which teams actually pick which player. It is definitely going to be an exciting three days coming up for fans and teams around the NFL.
