Alex’s 2012 NFL Mock Draft | 11-21

11.       Kansas City Chiefs: David DeCastro, G, Stanford

The Chiefs don't have any glaring needs on their team so they can afford to go BPA. David DeCastro will instantly boost the Chiefs offensive line considering that they also signed Eric WInston this offseason. A good, safe pick here for the Chiefs who could be 1 superstar QB away from a Super Bowl.

12.       Seattle Seahawks: Luke Kuechly, LB, Boston College

The Seahawks lost two ILBs this offseason. David Hawthorne left for New Orleans and Leroy Hill is a FA. LB is the biggest need for Seattle and the need is immediately filled with one of the best prospects in this year's draft. A safe player who fills a huge need.

13.       Arizona Cardinals: Riley Reiff, OT, Iowa

The Cardinals O-Line is atrocious. Absolutely horrible. Jonathan Martin would be too much of a reach here so the Cards are very lucky that the 2nd best OT in the draft behind Kalil fell to them. This pick should help improve Arizona's terrible offensive line.

14.       Dallas Cowboys: Mark Barron, S, Alabama

Mark Barron is one of my favorite prospects in this year's draft and would fill a huge need for the Cowboys considering that their safeties are horrible. Brodney Pool is not the answer across from Gerald Sensabaugh, but Mark Barron is.

15.       Philadelphia Eagles: Quinton Coples, DE, UNC

I'm sure Philly would prefer a stud DT like Fletcher Cox. I mean the Eagles LOVE Cox. I mean they really, really, love COX. So does Andy Reid. Andy Reid LOVES Cox, and he also loves D-Linemen. If Quinton Coples plays to his full potential, he could be a star for the Eagles for years to come.

16.       New York Jets: Melvin Ingram, DE/LB, S Carolina

The Jets absolutely LOVE Ingram. They are even considering trading up for him. He would be a perfect fit in Rex Ryan's defense. People are concerned that Melvin Ingram is a tweener but if there's one person who knows where to play Melvin Ingram, that's Rex Ryan.

17.       Cincinnati Bengals: Dre Kirkpatrick, CB, Alabama

The Bengals really need a CB across the recently injured Leon Hall. It is their biggest need and they get a steal. I belive that in 15 years, Kirkpatrick will go down as the best CB in this draft class only behind Morris Claiborne. Great pick here by Cincy.

18.       San Diego Chargers: Courtney Upshaw, DE, Alabama

Courtney Upshaw is considered a tweener but I think he will fit perfectly as a DE for San Diego. He will be the great pass-rusher that San Diego needs and will replace the recently retired Luis Castillo.

19.       Chicago Bears: Whitney Mercilus, DE, Illinois

Whitney Mercilus and Julius Peppers can eventually be one of the best DE combos in the NFL. Why would Chicago pass on that? The Bears went after Jeremy Mincey very hard so its no secret that they would like another DE and the Bears get a great one here with Mercilus.

20.       Tennessee Titans: Dontari Poe, DT, Memphis

D-Line is a huge need for Tennessee and after signing Kamerion Wimbley, I believe that they should pursue a DT. Dontari Poe is the next best DT after Cox but only a little better than Brockers and might be picked after him. The Titans shore up their D-Line by getting an athletic freak at DT. Hopefully he can perform better than he did on tape at Memphis.

21.       Cincinnati Bengals: Cordy Glenn, G, Georgia

Cordy Glenn is a very good guard, but not nearly as good as DeCastro. Still, he's very good. Free agent Bobbie Williams needs to be replaced at OG and Cordy Glenn could be the answer. I expect Cincy's O-Line to be even better than it was last year.
