With the draft coming up what are y'all's expectations on who going where, who might be a bust or a steal, I personally could see Texans getting Clowney first, then Jacksonville getting either Manziel or Bortles, and Cleveland getting Manziel or Bortles, and Texans getting the best QB in 2nd round(probably McCarron or Garropolo), Bridgewater, however, is a wild card at where he will go, probably the Vikings or somewhere like that, what are y'all's thoughts?

This years draft is pretty unpredictable. There is no clear no. 1 among players of all positions, but not even among QBs. It all depends on Texans pick.

Here is how I see it in top 10:

1) Texans - DE Clowney (for me its him or Bortles)
2) Rams - OT Robinson (if Clowney is not on the board)
3) Jaguars - QB Manziel (this pick will bring them so much needed attention and maybe even few fans)
4) Browns - WR Watkins
5) Raiders - QB Bortles
6) Falcons - OT Matthews
7) Buccaneers - LB Mack
8) Vikings - QB Bridgewater
9) Bills - TE Eborn (this may be a reach a bit)
10 Lions - CB Gilbert

But it is very possible, that I won't get a single pick right

As a Vikes fan, I really wish that Vikings trade down to get some more picks and then take LB C.J.Mosley in the first round and best available QB in the second, but I think they would pull the trigger if Teddy is there on the board at 8.

I could see that happening, and the Vikings probably will get a QB in round 1 instead of Mosley I think, even though this year there are a lot of talented QBs in the draft, I'm pretty sure the Vikings gonna go for the biggest QB they can get their hands on

I believe the Lions would draft Barr or Evans rather than Gilbert.

I wouldn't argue with that.. As I said none of my picks may happen..

At first I just wanted to make top8 prediction, but than I thought that top10 would look better And I just saw couple of mock drafts with Gilbert picked by Lions and I really think that their secondary needs some improvement.. But you surely may be right.. Especially Evans seems like a good prediction...

As long as the Texans dont pick any QB with that #1 pick... its a winning draft for me.

So by no QB, you mean Clowney for #1?

#1 (Texans): Jadeveon Clowney (DE): Would be a little surprise if they take a QB here. I think they wait till round 2.

#2 (Rams): Sammy Watkins (WR). They will try to move down, but they need also a playmaker.

#3 (Buccs from Jaguars): Jake Matthews (OL). Buccs trade up to pick up a top left Tackle.

#4 (Browns): Blake Bortles (QB). QB might be right, but Manziel and Bridgewater are also in the race for this spot.

#5 (Raiders): Johnny Manziel (QB). Manziel can electrify a full city. In Oakland he will have 1/2 or full season behind Schaub to learn the pro business.

#6 (Falcons): Greg Robinson (OL). They need him, they get him.

#7 (49ers from Jaguars via Buccs): Khalil Mack (LB). Jags accumulate more picks, because they will find not their franchise QB here. 49ers make a blockbuster trade to land a much needed LB. Bowman come back from major injury and the status of Aldon Smith is up in the air.

#8 (Vikings): Terry Bridgewater (QB). Vikings need definitly a QB. Bridgewater has the talent to turn around the franchise.

#9 (Bills): Anthony Barr (LB). Bills have many needs. Barr seem to be a save pick.

#10 (Lions): Justin Gilbert (CB). The Lions addressed the WR need in FA. They need a lot of help in their secondary and pick a CB.

#11 (Titans): Calvin Pryor (S). A need for the Titans and a safe pick.

#12 (Giants): Taylor Lewan (OL). The Giants would be happy to get much talented OT outside the Top10.

#13 (Rams): Ha Ha Clinton-Dix (S). They face a pass heavy division and need help in the secondary.

#14 (Bears): Aaron Donald (DT). Donald can anquor their DL for the next decade.

#15 (Steelers): Darqueeze Dennard (CB). Steelers have many areas of need. CB might have the highest priority.

#16 (Dallas): Eric Ebron (TE). Witten is near the end of his carrere. The cowboys need playmakers on offense.

#17 (Ravens): Mike Evans (WR). Ravens take a WR. Perhaps his name is different.

#18 (Jets): Kelvin Benjamin (WR). The Jets need a big body Receiver in the endzone.

#19 (Dolphins): Zack Martin (OL). Their OL has many holes to fill after last season.

#20 (Cardinals): CJ Mosley (LB). It's unlikely that Mosley slips so far. But the Cardinals need more depth at LB.

#21 (Packers): Ryan Shazier (LB)
#22 (Eagles): Odell Backham (WR)
#23 (Chiefs): Stephan Tuitt (DL)
#24 (Bengals): Bradley Roby (CB)
#25 (Chargers): Jason Verrett (CB)
#26 (Browns): Marqise Lee (WR)
#27 (Saints): Kyle Fuller (CB)
#28 (Panthers): Brandin Cooks (WR)
#29 (Patriots): Ra'Shede Hageman (DT)
#30 (Jags from 49ers): Derek Carr (QB)
#31 (Broncos): Dee Ford (DE)
#32 (Seahawks): Xavier Su'a-Filo (OL)

You wont have a team that can challenge without a franchise QB.

If they pick a QB you have to assume they think the guy is one of them and back their choice.

I'd be very happy with Justin Gilbert at 10th for the Lions. Although we've got some younger talent at the position, we really need to be able to limit Jay Cutler and Aaron Rodgers more than we've been able to in the past.
If Sammy Watkins or Mike Evans were drafted I'd be good with that too.
Just hope we don't have to trade up too much to do it.
