TPSG NFL Mock Draft 3.0

It's gettting closer, time for a few updates.  I'm still thinking that the Panthers want a QB first and given that Cam would sell more tickets I think they are leaning in that direction.  Outside of that, the biggest mover is DaQuan Bowers who I have falling all the way down to pick #16, apparently several red flags have been raised over his surgically repaired right knee.  Robert Quinn on the other hand has apparently put to rest some of his off field concerns and his draft status is on the rise.  At #5, some feel that the Cardinals will pounce on QB Blaine Gabbert but I'm not sure that they are that enthralled with him (at least not that early) and I could really see them picking Peterson or Quinn at that spot.  The Vikings at #12 are also hard to read, they've been making lots of noise about wanting a QB but I'm not sure if they feel any of the available QB's are worthy of a #12 pick, it wouldn't shock me to see them trade down and then try to grab a QB a bit later on in round #1 (specifically Mallett, Locker or Ponder), if they don't I wouldn't be surprised to see them pick a DE here (probably Bowers, Jordan or Watt).
