Whitney Mercilus will likely go pro after this year.  Mercilus was an excellent run stuffer last season.  Mercilus registered 14.5 sacks in 2011.  Mercilus can play 4-3 or a 3-4 scheme.  Mercilus can get by left tackles or right tackles.

The Packers need a 2nd pass rusher next to Clay Matthews.  Matthews got kept in check by the Chiefs starting right tackle Barry Richardson.  When Barry Richardson is keeping Clay Matthews in check it pretty much illustrates the dire need to obtain a second pass rusher next to Clay Matthews.

5 Rants to “2012 NFL Mock Draft With Trade Predictions”

  1. Dave says:

    I really hope the Browns can trade up for Luck.

  2. Eric says:

    Detroit just took LeShoure in the second round last year. No way they spend a third high-round pick in a row on a running back. Think either offensive line or Defense.

  3. kenny says:

    actually pete carroll and john schneider said that they plan on taking a quarterback every year. they essentially used a third round pick on charlie whitehurst last year and they have set up the pieces to trade away the farm to grab their guy. in my opinion their guy is rg3. watch them trade up into spot number 4 and snatch him. if not then they will go with tannehill or landry jones. CB is not a need for the seahawks and only people who havent watched the seahawks believe it is. but at least you got the type of CB right.

    seattle’s needs and wishlist go as follows:
    qb: rg3
    pass rusher: best DE/olb available in round 3.
    O-line depth
    LB depth

  4. eddie says:

    They say that Washington has traded thier 1st, 2nd and 3rd round picks for 2012&2013 to the volts for the top pick. Wow!
