TPSG NFL Mock Draft 6.0

It's almost time, the NFL draft is tomorrow, time to unveil my final mock draft.  Here goes:
  1. Colts - Andrew Luck - QB - Stanford
  2. Redskins - Robert Griffin III - QB - Baylor
  3. Vikings - Matt Kalil - OT - USC  ****
  4. Browns - Justin Blackmon - WR - Oklahoma St   ****
  5. Bucs - Morris Claiborne - CB - LSU
  6. Rams - Trent Richardson - RB - Alabama
  7. Jaguars - Melvin Ingram - OLB/DE - South Carolina
  8. Dolphins - Ryan Tannehill - QB - Texas A&M
  9. Panthers - Fletcher Cox - DT - Mississippi St
  10. Bills - Riley Reiff - OT - Iowa
  11. Chiefs - David DeCastro - OG - Stanford
  12. Seahawks - Quinton Coples - DE - North Carolina
  13. Cardinals - Michael Floyd - WR - Notre Dame  ****
  14. Cowboys - Mark Barron - DB - Alabama
  15. Eagles - Luke Kuechly - LB - Boston College
  16. Jets - Courtney Upshaw - DE - Alabama
  17. Bengals - Stephen Gilmore - CB - South Carolina
  18. Chargers - Nick Perry - DE - USC
  19. Bears - Whitney Mercilus - DE - Illinois
  20. Titans - Dre Kirkpatrick - CB - Alabama
  21. Bengals - Cordy Glenn - OG/OT - Georgia
  22. Browns - Doug Martin - RB - Boise St
  23. Lions - Jonathan Martin - OT - Stanford 
  24. Steelers - Dontari Poe - DT - Memphis St
  25. Broncos - Michael Brockers - DT - LSU
  26. Texans - Kendall Wright - WR - Baylor
  27. Patriots - Shea McClellan - DE/OLB - Boise St
  28. Packers - Chandler Jones - DE - Syracuse
  29. Ravens - Peter Konz - C - Wisconsin
  30. 49ers - Amini Silatolu - OG - Midwestern St
  31. Patriots - Harrison Smith - DB - Notre Dame
  32. Giants - Coby Fleener - TE - Stanford 
**** I think the Vikings would love to trade this pick if they could get an impressive haul for it.  I'm assuming that's what is behind their public interest in Claiborne & Blackmon (why would they go public with it otherwise unless it was to scare up trade interest?).  If they stay at number 3, Kalil is the obvious choice in my opinion, you don't get the opportunity to add a franchise LT all that often.  As for Round 2, if Harrison Smith is available, he'd be my pick, they should also have some WR options available (Stephen Hill, Alshon Jeffery, Mohamed Sanu) if they choose to go that route (which I think they should if Smith isn't available and if they don't select Blackmon in Round 1).  

**** I'm not quite sure if the Browns will select Blackmon or Richardson at number 4, I'm going to stick with my Blackmon prediction though (they can then follow up with Doug Martin at number 22 to fill their RB need). 

**** Best case scenario for the Cardinals would be that Riley Reiff falls into their laps at number 13 and I think that's entirely possible.  If he doesn't, I'm guessing that their order of preference would fall something like this:   Michael Floyd, Melvin Ingram, Courtney Upshaw, David DeCastro and then Luke Kuechley.  I wouldn't be shocked to see them trade down either. 
Previous mocks:  1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 & 5.0.

******** ACTUAL 1ST ROUND PICKS HERE ********
For the record, I had 4 picks correctly in the right spots (Luck, RGIII, Tannehill & Floyd).  It's really hard to project with all the trades.
