2012 NFL Mock Draft Update: Colts Still NFL’s Worst

17. San Diego Chargers: Alamada Ta’amu, DT, Washington

Powerful nose tackle prospect who could be a force in the middle for the Chargers, opening up lanes for pass rushers.

18. Cincinnati Bengals: Lamar Miller, RB, Miami

Miller is extremely talented and productive for a young guy, he could be a top tier playmaker for years.

19. Chicago Bears: David DeCastro, OL, Stanford

Help keep Jay Cutler upright should be the goal of this draft for Chicago.

20. Cleveland Browns: Landry Jones, QB, Oklahoma

Surprised? Maybe, but the Browns seem to be losing faith in Colt McCoy every week.

21. New England Patriots: Vinny Curry, DE/OLB, Marshall

Curry has elite pass rush skills and is a great value for the Pats at this juncture of the draft.

22. New York Jets: Cordy Glenn, OL, Georgia

Big, powerful offensive lineman who fits the Jets’ power scheme.

23. Buffalo Bills: Brandon Jenkins, DE/OLB, Florida State

Hybrid pass rusher who is improving in run support as well. Has the whole package, just needs consistency.

24. Houston Texans: Michael Floyd, WR, Notre Dame

Top notch possession receiver with big play ability to pair with Andre Johnson. Merry Christmas, Matt Schaub.

25. New England Patriots: Chase Minnifield, CB, Virginia

Big, rangy cover corner with loads of talent. Solid tackler and pairs back with former teammate Ras-I Dowling.

26. Pittsburgh Steelers: Kelechi Osemele, OL, Iowa State

Another powerful offensive lineman who can play guard or right tackle for the Steelers.

27. New York Giants: Jerel Worthy, DL, Michigan State

Great value here, a guy who will add depth to the Giants’ defensive tackle position.

28. Cincinnati Bengals: Stephon Gilmore, CB, South Carolina

Excellent cover corner with tackling ability. Gilmore replaces the void left by Jonathan Joseph.

29. Detroit Lions: Luke Kuechly, LB, Boston College

Kuechly is instinctive and just flat out nasty. He will fit perfectly with the Lions.

30. San Francisco 49ers: Courtney Upshaw, DE/LB, Alabama

Adding this type of pass rusher to a mix that already includes Aldon Smith, Justin Smith, Patrick Willis, and Navorro Bowman is scary.

31. Baltimore Ravens: Dont’a Hightower, LB, Alabama

Big linebacker prospect who would theoretically take over for Ray Lewis whenever he chooses to call it a career.

32. Green Bay Packers: Brandon Thompson, DL, Clemson

Excellent value this late in the first round with a big defensive lineman with immense potential.
