*Notes

- Compensatory picks will be given out, starting in Round 3. Once they are announced, I will add them to this list. Compensatory selections cannot be traded.

- No commentary will be used in this mock draft, as well as the Pre-Combine Mock Draft (coming out February 15th).

*Buzz

- Miami seems to be enamored with QB Joe Flacco but right now, it is still a toss-up between Flacco, Brian Brohm, and Chad Henne for the second QB taken spot.

- Georgia DE/OLB Marcus Howard is a prospect on the rise after squashing Colt Brennan in the Sugar Bowl. Since then, his stock has risen steadily. He had a good showing in the Hula Bowl and scouts rave about his work ethic. He is a workout warrior that is expected to get noticed even more at the combine.

- Iowa State DT Ahtya Rubin is a hog in the middle. I may not be doing him justice having him go in the third. Look for his stock to rise before the draft as he could end up being a sure-thing 2nd round prospect.

- Buffalo needs a TE and they will probably look no further than Martellus Bennett. Bennett is a close friend of Kevin Everett and almost went to Miami Fl. until the last minute when he changed his mind and went to College Station.
