49ers - OL Mike Iupati, Idaho
The 49ers are potentially a good QB away from being in the hunt for the Playoffs. They sit in a great position with two 1st round draft picks. They will be looking to address their offensive line and also the secondary. Most mock drafts have them getting an OL with their second pick in the 1st round; I however think they will address that need with their first pick. Every year there are a couple of players that team hype up and they fly up the draft board. This year one of those players is Mike Iupati from Idaho! He played as an offensive guard in college but has the talent to play right tackle which is what the 49ers need. If they wait to pick him at 17th overall they run the risk of the Steelers jumping them one spot and drafting the guy they want. So with that in mind with the 13th pick the 49ers will draft Mike Iupati.
The Seahawks will be looking to get a offensive playmaker with their second pick. There have been a lot of rumors that the Seahawks are going to sign Brandon Marshall away for the Broncos but to this point it has not happened. At this point in the draft the best playmaker is WR Dez Bryant from Oklahoma State. I would not be surprised if the Seahawks end up drafting him here but due to character issue I see them passing on him (similar to Randy Moss in the late 90s). The next best player would be CJ Spiller from Clemson. I think he is a perfect fit for Pete Carroll! Remember Carroll did wonders at USC with Reggie Bush and other athletes in the roles that he created for them. Spiller is lighting quick and was Mr. Do it all at Clemson. He will add a missing element to the Seahawks offense. He will carry the ball out the back field, catch passes, return kicks, and line up as a WR from time to time. For that reason the Seahawks will draft CJ Spiller from Clemson with the 14th pick.
Giants - LB Sean Weatherspoon, Missouri
The New York football Giants are on the clock! This is to me the easiest pick to project in the draft next to the Rams. The Giants recently released the anchor of their defense in Antonio Pierce. They have some young linebacks (include Brian Khel) but none of them are legit middle linebackers. Due to that reason look for them to draft the best available linebacker at this point in the draft. They would love to get McClain and if he is available he will not get past the Giants. The best LB at this point is Sean Weatherspoon from Missouri. He made a name for himself at the Senior Bowl and has continued to impress people with his workouts. I know he didn’t play MLB in college but it should be an easy transition given his size and abilities. The Giant will select Sean Weatherspoon from Missouri with the 15th pick.
Titans - CB Kyle Wilson, Boise State
Titans - CB Kyle Wilson, Boise State The Titans are going to be looking for some defensive help with their first pick. I could see them going with one of two players: Dan Williams from Tennessee or Kyle Wilson from Boise State. Williams would be a great addition to their team but I believe that Wilson would make a bigger impact. Last year the Titans were ranked 31st in passing yards on defense! Good crap I could have throw for 200 yards on them! They need some serious help in covering receivers and for that reason they will select Kyle Wilson from Boise State.

I am not a Dez fan. He is a flashy player that puts up the kind of numbers that make him seem "big time" when actually he has a few moves that were exposed a little this last year. Still a good reciever, just not all world.
