2009 MOCK DRAFT: Round 1 ......4 OSU Players......
Pick Team Player Pos. School
1. Dolphins James Laurinaitis LB Ohio State
The Dolphins made modest strides in 2008, but are continuing on the course of improving the defensive unit with the latest in a long line of top inside backers produced by the Buckeyes.
2. Chiefs Malcolm Jenkins CB Ohio State
Passing on a corner in the opening round proved to be the Chiefs' undoing. With Marty Schottenheimer back in town and wearing both hats (coach and GM), this aspect of the game will be taken care of very quickly.
3. Ravens Andre Smith OT Alabama
With the retirement of the great Jonathan Ogden, second-year coach John Harbaugh knows all to well the importance of a strong presence on the left side.
4. Raiders Beanie Wells RB Ohio State
After a two-year absence, Denny Green returns to the Bay Area as the first major change in the new managing general partner Carl Peterson era.
5. Falcons Gerald McRath LB Southern Miss.
With the signing of QB J.P. Losman via free agency and with the declining Keith Brookings entering his 12th season, the Falcons felt it was imperative to improve at this critical position.
6. Jets Nic Harris S Oklahoma
New coach Rex Ryan's defensive scheme requires the right type of player on the back end to key the defense. Harris is just what the doctor ordered in this system.
7. Rams Percy Harvin WR Florida
With Torry Holt entering his 11th season as the only viable receiver threat, Al Saunders (who took over as head coach during the bye week along with new OC Wes Chandler) now looks to find offensive playmakers to compliment Jackson, Holt and Bulger.
8. Bears Max Unger OT Oregon
Just two years removed from the Super Bowl, the Bears continue to fade and begin the rebuilding process with the drafting of a player they consider the top interior defensive lineman in the country.
9. Steelers Michael Oher OT Mississippi
The Steelers' trademark has always been a strong running game. With Mike Tomlin beginning his third season and now very much on the hot seat, it is now time to upgrade this area.
10. Bills Sean Lee LB Penn State
The drafting of Lee gives the Bills a player they hope will quickly become the centerpiece of their already improving defensive unit.
11. 49ers Curtis Painter QB Purdue
The 49ers showed noticeable improvement on both sides of the football, but for the fourth straight season, quarterback Alex Smith struggled to make plays. After failing in their quest to sign Losman via free agency, new coach Jim Haslett selects a quarterback the scouts considered the best prospect in the draft.
12. Panthers Alex Boone OT Ohio State
