The draft is upon us. In just a few short hours we will know who the next big stars are and who they will be playing for. With that said, here is my final 2015 NFL mock draft before the real deal gets started. A few things to take into consideration. My mock is more so about which team I believe a player will go, not necessarily, if “x” player is still on the board, there is no way “y” team would pass on him.

1. Tampa Bay Buccaneers -QB Jameis Winston

The Buccaneers need a franchise quarterback. The team reportedly likes Winston and will take him number one overall.

2. Tennessee Titans – DL Leonard Williams

Leonard Williams is arguably the best player in the draft and fits exactly what they do on defense. The Titans have Mettenberger and they seem to like what they saw out of the second year quarterback last season. Let the tumble of Marcus Mariota begin.

3. Jacksonville Jaguars – DE Dante Fowler

The Jaguars have a quarterback in Blake Bortles. I wouldnt mind seeing them give Bortles a weapon in Cooper or White, but at the end of they day Gus Bradley gives his defense a top pass rusher to terrorize Andrew Luck for the next ten years.

4. Oakland Raiders – WR Kevin White

I like Cooper more than White, but White is just such a fit in Oakland it’s hard to pass on him here. White has a very high ceiling and will give Derek Carr a number one target to throw to.

5. Washington Redskins – OL Brandon Scherff 

As much as I would love the Rams to get Scherff, I do think he goes number five overall to the Washington Redskins. Jay Gruden has to protect an oft-injured RGIII if he wants his star quarterback to get back on track. The Redskins sabotage the Rams with their first, first round pick since the infamous trade.

6. New York Jets – OLB Vic Beasley

The Jets could go running back and shock everybody here, they could also go wide receiver, however, I believe they go get one of the best pass rushers in the draft in Vic Beasley. Bowles is a defensive coach and knows just how important it is to have a guy like Beasley on the field.

7. Chicago Bears – WR Amari Cooper

The Bears could go defense and go get a guy like Randy Gregory, however, they just lost Brandon Marshall in the offseason and could use a guy to put across from Alshon Jeffrey.

8. Atlanta Falcons – OLB Randy Gregory 

While Gregory could continue to fall, Atlanta needs defense and Gregory is a top five talent. They can’t afford to pass on Gregory.

9. New York Giants – OT Andrus Peat

The Giants were hoping Scherff would be here, but unfortunately he was taken all the way up at number five. Peat is a fit for the Giants and will help protect Eli Manning as he nears the end of his career.

10. St. Louis Rams – OL Ereck Flowers

The Rams may try to trade back to take Flowers, but if Scherff is gone, then I do think Flowers is the guy. Flowers, like Scherff can move inside at guard and be a solid blocker in the run game. He does have his issues in pass protection, but the Rams have to go offensive line in the first round.
