Full Round 1 coverage can be found below.
| Pick | Team | Player | Position | School |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1. | St. Louis Rams | Sam Bradford | QB | Oklahoma |
| The obvious choice here. Rams needed a franchise QB badly. | ||||
| 2. | Detroit Lions | Ndamukong Suh | DT | Nebraska |
| And another easy one: Detroit gets its defensive anchor and suddenly has a potent line. | ||||
| 3. | Tampa Bay Bucs | Gerald McCoy | DT | Oklahoma |
| With Suh off the board, Tampa stays put and happily gets a D-line force of its own. | ||||
| 4. | Washington Redskins | Trent Williams | OT | Oklahoma |
| Even with Eric Berry on the board, Washington plays it smart. Williams leapfrogs Russell Okung. | ||||
| 5. | Kansas City Chiefs | Eric Berry | S | Tennessee |
| The Chiefs' overmatched defense gets a serious playmaker. Berry should step right in. | ||||
| 6. | Seattle Seahawks | Russell Okung | OT | Oklahoma St. |
| Pete Carroll can't be too disappointed to see Okung fall to here. He can play on either side. | ||||
| 7. | Cleveland Browns | Joe Haden | CB | Florida |
| So much for that tumble down the board. Haden rockets back up and Cleveland shores up its D. | ||||
| 8. | Oakland Raiders | Rolando McClain | LB | Alabama |
| Did Oakland just make a good pick? McClain is ready to play in the middle right away. | ||||
| 9. | Buffalo Bills | C.J. Spiller | RB | Clemson |
| Bills pass on Jimmy Clausen for another RB. Marshawn Lynch or Fred Jackson is out of a job. | ||||
| 10. | Jacksonville Jaguars | Tyson Alualu | DT | California |
| About as far away from a Tebow pick as you can get. A good player, but really early. | ||||
| 11. | San Francisco 49ers (a) | Anthony Davis | OT | Rutgers |
| Niners just up two spots to land Davis, one of the most promising tackles left. | ||||
| 12. | San Diego Chargers (b) | Ryan Mathews | RB | Fresno State |
| Chargers jump up 16 picks to nab Mathews. Too early? It feels like it at first glance. | ||||
| 13. | Philadelphia Eagles (c) | Brandon Graham | DE | Michigan |
| Graham can play, there's no doubt about it. Philly made a big move to go up and steal him. | ||||
| 14. | Seattle Seahawks | Earl Thomas | S | Texas |
| Okung and Thomas - can't argue with that haul in the first round for Seattle. | ||||
| 15. | New York Giants | Jason Pierre-Paul | DE | South Florida |
| An athletic freak, Pierre-Paul is raw, but could develop to a star. Gutsy pick by the Giants. | ||||
| 16. | Tennessee Titans | Derrick Morgan | DE | Georgia Tech |
| A bit more of a sure bet than Pierre-Paul, the Titans will probably be thrilled with this one. | ||||
| 17. | San Francisco 49ers | Mike Iupati | G | Idaho |
| A big, sturdy interior lineman, Iupati will be asked to jump into the lineup immediately. | ||||
| 18. | Pittsburgh Steelers | Maurkice Pouncey | C | Florida |
| Nice upgrade for Pittsburgh's line, Pouncey's an intelligent player and should help. | ||||
| 19. | Atlanta Falcons | Sean Weatherspoon | LB | Missouri |
| Have to love this pick for Atlanta. The Falcons needed help at this position and they found it. | ||||
| 20. | Houston Texans | Kareem Jackson | CB | Alabama |
| Houston needed a CB and Jackson's a good one. Could've made an argument for Kyle Wilson. | ||||
| 21. | Cincinnati Bengals | Jermaine Gresham | TE | Oklahoma |
| Great pick for Cincinnati. Gresham will cause huge headaches for defenses over the middle. | ||||
| 22. | Denver Broncos (d) | Demaryius Thomas | WR | Georgia Tech |
| Broncos move all over the board, then take Thomas over Dez Bryant. Wild night for Denver. | ||||
| 23. | Green Bay Packers | Bryan Bulaga | OT | Iowa |
| A team in need of offensive-line depth lands a great value pick at No. 23. | ||||
| 24. | Dallas Cowboys (e) | Dez Bryant | WR | Oklahoma St. |
| Cowboys move up three spots for the best WR on the board. How will he mesh in Big D, though? | ||||
| 25. | Denver Broncos (f) | Tim Tebow | QB | Florida |
| Who saw that coming? The first round's most active team joins a QB controversy in Denver. | ||||
| 26. | Arizona Cardinals | Dan Williams | DT | Tennessee |
| Nothing wrong with this one. Arizona gets a great player at a position of need. | ||||
| 27. | New England (g) | Devin McCourty | CB | Rutgers |
| Another team passes on Kyle Wilson, but McCourty's worthy of a first-round selection. | ||||
| 28. | Miami Dolphins (h) | Jared Odrick | DT | Penn State |
| After moving down, the Dolphins will have no complaints with Odrick, a versatile lineman. | ||||
| 29. | New York Jets | Kyle Wilson | CB | Boise State |
| Wilson easily could've gone five to 10 picks higher, so the Jets may wind up with a huge steal. | ||||
| 30. | Detroit Lions (i) | Jahvid Best | RB | California |
| Lions swap into the first round again to get some help at RB. With Kevin Smith hurt, this was a must. | ||||
| 31. | Indianapolis Colts | Jerry Hughes | LB | TCU |
| Hughes at 31? The rich get richer in Indianapolis. | ||||
| 32. | New Orleans Saints | Patrick Robinson | CB | Florida State |
| Saints needed some secondary help. Robinson's an athletic guy and will fit right in. | ||||
