By ContractBud.com Staff ContractBud.com Mock Draft 2005 Final edition The deals are flying fast and furious, and our staff takes a final peek at the draft. ContractBud.com is proud to present four mock drafts. Here are links to our post-combine and pre-combine picks for more details on the though processes. All four drafts (Adam Conn, Brian Wilmer, Matt Phillips and Ed Barnes) are updated to reflect the Jets/Raiders trade completed April 21st. Adam Conn, Matt Phillips, and Ed Barnes reflect the Miami/Kansas City trade. Adam Conn, Founder updated April 22 11:30 AM CT to reflect the Miami/Kansas City trade 1 San Francisco 49ers Alex Smith QB Utah 2 Miami Dolphins Ronnie Brown RB Auburn 3 Minnesota Vikings (from Cleveland) Braylon Edwards WR Michigan 4 Chicago Bears Mike Williams WR Southern California 5 Tampa Bay Buccaneers Carnell Williams RB Auburn 6 Tennessee Titans Antrell Rolle CB Miami 7 Cleveland Browns (from Oakland through Minnesota) Derrick Johnson LB Texas 8 Arizona Cardinals Cedric Benson RB Texas 9 Washington Redskins Carlos Rogers CB Auburn 10 Detroit Lions DeMarcus Ware LB Troy State 11 Dallas Cowboys Shawne Merriman LB/DE Maryland 12 San Diego Chargers (from NY Giants) Marcus Spears DE Louisiana State 13 Houston Texans Alex Barron OT Florida State 14 Carolina Panthers Aaron Rodgers QB California 15 Kansas City Chiefs Thomas Davis S Georgia 16 New Orleans Saints Adam Jones CB Florida State 17 Cincinnati Bengals David Pollack DE Georgia 18 Cleveland Browns (from Minnesota) Erasmus James DE Wisconsin 19 St. Louis Rams Jamaal Brown OT Oklahoma 20 Dallas Cowboys (from Buffalo) Troy Williamson WR South Carolina 21 Jacksonville Jaguars Marlin Jackson CB Michigan 22 Baltimore Ravens Travis Johnson DT Florida State 23 Seattle Seahawks Shaun Cody DE/DT Southern California 24 Philadelphia Eagles (from Green Bay) Khalif Barnes OT Washington 25 Washington Redskins Mark Clayton WR Oklahoma 26 Oakland Raiders (from New York Jets) Justin Miller CB Clemson 27 Atlanta Falcons Matt Roth DE Iowa 28 San Diego Chargers Roddy White WR Alabama-Birmingham 29 Indianapolis Colts Dan Cody DE Oklahoma 30 Pittsburgh Steelers Heath Miller TE Virginia 31 Green Bay Packers (from Philadelphia) Jason Campbell QB Auburn 32 New England Patriots Fabian Washington CB Nebraska Recent trades: Oakland traded Doug Jolley, pick #47, #182, and #185 to the New York Jets for #26 Kansas City traded #46 and a fifth-round pick (#147 or #162) to Miami for Patrick Surtain and #138. Projected trades: Minnesota trades #7 and #18 to Cleveland for #3 overall, and at least a swap either second (#49/#34) or third round picks (#80/#67). I am projecting third-round swap, plus picks in 2006 being swapped (probably a Minnesota 4th for a Cleveland 2nd). Green Bay trades #24 to Philadelphia for #31 and either #94 and #172 or a second-round pick in 2006. Notes: Minnesota and Philly are the two teams looking to trade up, and Philly could trade as high as #10. Detroit would get #31, #63, #77 and #146 at a minimum. Minnesota could go up to #2 if Cleveland refuses to trade out of the spot, since Miami has so few draft picks this year and many needs. If Minnesota does go to #2, look for a deal with Philly before hand to clear out a lot of lower-round picks to package to Miami. Minnesota and Kansas City are other potential trade partners, as the Vikings could seek to go down from #18, particularly if the Eagles are looking to draft someone the Packers want. 33 San Francisco 49ers Brodney Pool S Oklahoma 34 Cleveland Browns Charlie Frye QB Akron 35 Philadelphia Eagles (from Miami) Odell Thurman WR Georgia 36 Tampa Bay Buccaneers Matt Jones WR Arkansas 37 Tennessee Titans Elton Brand OT Virginia 38 Oakland Raiders Daryl Blackstock LB Virginia 39 Chicago Bears Marcus Johnson C Mississippi 40 New Orleans Saints (from Washington) Channing Crowder LB Florida 41 Detroit Lions Mike Patterson DT Southern California 42 Cincinnati Bengals (from Dallas) Chris Spencer G Mississippi 43 New York Giants Jonathan Babineaux DT Iowa 44 Buffalo Bills (from Arizona) Eric Green CB Virginia Tech 45 Carolina Panthers Alex Smith TE Stanford 46 Miami Dolphins (from Kansas City) Barrett Ruud LB Nebraska 47 New York Jets (from Houston through Oakland) Corey Webster CB Louisiana State 48 Dallas Cowboys (from Cincinnati) David Baas C Michigan 49 Minnesota Vikings Ernest Shazor S Michigan 50 St. Louis Rams Brandon Browner CB Oregon State 51 Green Bay Packers (from New Orleans) Gerald Sensabaugh S North Carolina 52 Jacksonville Jaguars Michael Roos OT Eastern Washington 53 Baltimore Ravens Reggie Brown WR Georgia 54 Seattle Seahawks Stanley Wilson CB Stanford 55 Arizona Cardinals (from Buffalo) Luis Castillo DT Northwestern 56 Denver Broncos Logan Mankins OG Fresno State 57 New York Jets Derek Wake LB Penn State 58 Green Bay Packers C.J. Mosley DT Missouri 59 Atlanta Falcons Josh Bullocks S Nebraska 60 Indianapolis Colts Kevin Burnett LB Tennessee 61 San Diego Chargers Bryant McFadden CB Florida State 62 Pittsburgh Steelers Anttaj Hawthorne DT Wisconsin 63 Philadelphia Eagles Roydell Williams WR Tulane 64 New England Patriots Adam Terry OT Syracuse Projected trades: Buffalo trades #55 and Travis Henry to Arizona for #44 and LJ Shelton. Cincinnati trades #48 and #119 to Dallas for #42. Notes: Tennessee could trade down to accumulate more picks, but if Marcus Johnson or Elton Brand are there, they won't move. The Steelers may trade up to get him. Philadelphia could trade up from #63 to grab Mike Patterson or hope CJ Mosley is available. Brian Wilmer, Senior Staff Writer updated April 22 to reflect the Jets/Raiders trade Trade: Minnesota acquires #3 overall and a 4th in 2006 from Cleveland for #7 and 18 overall. 1 San Francisco QB Aaron Rodgers California 2 Miami RB Ronnie Brown Auburn 3 Minnesota (from Cleveland) WR Braylon Edwards Michigan 4 Chicago WR Mike Williams USC 5 Tampa Bay RB Carnell Williams Auburn 6 Tennessee CB Antrel Rolle Miami (they could also trade with San Diego to pick up 12 & 28) 7 Cleveland (from Oakland via Minnesota) QB Alex Smith Utah 8 Arizona RB Cedric Benson Texas 9 Washington CB Adam Jones West Virginia 10 Detroit LB Derrick Johnson Texas 11 Dallas DE Marcus Spears LSU 12 San Diego (from New York Giants) WR Troy Williamson South Carolina 13 Houston T Alex Barron Florida State 14 Carolina TE Heath Miller Virginia 15 Kansas City DE/LB Demarcus Ware Troy 16 New Orleans T Jammal Brown Oklahoma 17 Cincinnati DT Travis Johnson Florida State 18 Cleveland (from Minnesota) DE Erasmus James Wisconsin 19 St. Louis DE Shawne Merriman Maryland 20 Dallas (from Buffalo) S Thomas Davis Georgia 21 Jacksonville CB Carlos Rogers Auburn 22 Baltimore WR Mark Clayton Oklahoma 23 Seattle CB Fabian Washington Nebraska 24 Green Bay QB Jason Campbell Auburn 25 Washington (from Denver) QB Charlie Frye Akron 26 Oakland (from NY Jets) CB Marlin Jackson Michigan 27 Atlanta DE/DT Shaun Cody USC 28 San Diego DE Dan Cody Oklahoma 29 Indianapolis DE/LB Matt Roth Iowa 30 Pittsburgh QB/WR Matt Jones Arkansas 31 Philadelphia WR Reggie Brown Georgia 32 New England LB Odell Thurman Georgia 33 San Francisco S Brodney Pool Oklahoma 34 Cleveland T Khalif Barnes Washington 35 Philadelphia (from Miami) G/T Marcus Johnson Mississippi 36 Tampa Bay LB Darryl Blackstock Virginia 37 Tennessee WR Jerome Mathis Hampton 38 Oakland LB Channing Crowder Florida 39 Chicago RB J.J.

Arizona is in a great position, and can afford to trade down a few spots. If Rodgers is available to them, there isn't going to be anyone that trades up to get him. Even so, Carlos Rogers should be there. 33 San Francisco 49ers Marlin Jackson CB University of Michigan 34 Cleveland Browns Charlie Frye QB University of Akron 35 Philadelphia Eagles Matt Jones WR University of Arkansas 36 Tampa Bay Buccaneers Roscoe Parrish WR University of Miami 37 Tennessee Titans Jerome Mathis WR Hampton University 38 Oakland Raiders Darryl Blackstock LB University of Virginia 39 Chicago Bears David Baas OG University of Michigan 40 New Orleans Saints Fabian Washington CB University of Nebraska 41 Detroit Lions Khalif Barnes OT University of Washington 42 Dallas Cowboys Brodney Pool S Oklahoma University 43 New York Giants Mike Patterson DT University of Southern California 44 Arizona Cardinals Corey Webster CB Louisiana State University 45 Carolina Panthers Elton Brown OG University of Virginia 46 Miami Dolphins Eric Green CB Virginia Tech University 47 New York Jets Stanley Wilson CB Stanford University 48 Cincinnati Bengals Chris Spencer OL University of Mississippi 49 Minnesota Vikings Mike Nugent PK THE Ohio State University 50 St. Louis Rams Michael Roos OT Eastern Washington University 51 Green Bay Packers Bryant McFadden CB Florida State University 52 Jacksonville Jaguars Justin Tuck DE University of Notre Dame 53 Baltimore Ravens Kevin Burnett LB University of Tennessee 54 Seattle Seahawks Barrett Ruud LB University of Nebraska 55 Buffalo Bills Adam Snyder OT University of Oregon 56 Denver Broncos Ernest Shazor S University of Michigan 57 New York Jets Josh Bullocks CB Oklahoma University 58 Green Bay Packers Adrian McPherson QB Florida State University 59 Atlanta Falcons Gerald Sensabaugh S University of North Carolina 60 Indianapolis Colts Anttaj Hawthorne DT University of Wisconsin 61 San Diego Chargers Adam Terry OT Syracuse University 62 Pittsburgh Steelers Oshiomogho Atogwe S Stanford University 63 Philadelphia Eagles J.J. Arrington RB University of California-Berkeley 64 New England Patriots Marcus Johnson OG University of Mississippi I know, I know. No trades. The Vikings taking Nugent at 49 may be a reach, but stranger things have happened. Green Bay may take Orton at 58, or wait until the third. McPherson is a gamble. If there's a run on defensive backs in the early 2nd, the Jets could package their picks to move up.
