1. Detroit Lions (Record: 0-16): Matthew Stafford, QB, Georgia

Top three needs: QB, LOT, DE

Stafford is the very clear choice for Detroit. Among the three players the Lions have said they are negotiating with Stafford is at the top, Jason Smith would be the next choice if negotiations with Stafford broke down, and Curry is a long shot. The Lions definitely want a deal in place with the top pick before the draft, and they definitely hope it's with Stafford.

2. St. Louis Rams (2-14): Jason Smith, OT, Baylor

Top three needs: OT, WR, MLB

Smith has the athleticism and tenacity of a premier starting left tackle, which is priority No. 1 for St. Louis after it parted ways with Orlando Pace during the offseason. If Smith is on the board, it's hard to imagine the Rams going in any other direction.

3. Kansas City Chiefs (2-14): Aaron Curry, LB, Wake Forest

Top three needs: Rush LB, DT, 3-4 DL

Here's where it starts to get interesting. This pick is suddenly much more valuable given the fact that Sanchez is projected to come off the board at No. 4, but it remains to be seen whether any team will pay the huge price it would take to get ahead of Seattle. Curry is without question the best available player, but does he fit what the Chiefs are looking to do defensively as they move to a 3-4 look? I think Curry is just as valuable inside in a 3-4 as he is outside in a 4-3, but the one thing they don't get for certain is an impact pass-rusher off the edge. I think Kansas City goes with Curry, but if the Chiefs go in a different direction it will likely be OT Eugene Monroe.

4. Seattle Seahawks (4-12): Mark Sanchez, QB, USC

Top three needs: OLB, OT, S

The Seahawks are clearly looking for the heir apparent to current starter Matt Hasselbeck, who has dealt with nagging injuries recently but likely has two or three more years in him. There are also questions about stud LT Walter Jones, who is coming off a serious knee injury, but selecting Sanchez will allow Seattle to eventually hand the reins from one franchise quarterback to another.

5. Cleveland Browns (4-12): B.J. Raji, DT, Boston College

Top three needs: OLB, WR, CB

Raji is the best player on the board at this point and would provide the Browns with a stout nose tackle in their 3-4 defense. He has the size and strength to anchor against double-teams in the running game and the burst and quickness to collapse the pocket and get to the quarterback as a pass-rusher.I have heard the argument that Rogers can be moved to one of the DE positions...not sure I am buying this one.

6. Cincinnati Bengals (4-11-1): Eugene Monroe, OT, Virginia

Top three needs: OT, C, RB

Monroe is the best pure pass-blocker in the draft, and he makes sense for a team that has had trouble staying healthy up front and has invested significant money in QB Carson Palmer.

7. Oakland Raiders (5-11): Jeremy Maclin, WR, Missouri

Top three needs: OT, WR, DT

We rate Crabtree as the top receiver in the 2009 draft, but Raiders owner Al Davis is in love with speed and gives Maclin the edge here. Maclin is one of the most explosive players in the draft and fills one of Oakland's biggest needs, and while he is a bit raw as a receiver and route-runner, his speed is impressive and he can also contribute in the return game.

8. Jacksonville Jaguars (5-11): Michael Crabtree, WR, Texas Tech

Top three needs: WR, CB, DT

There has been a lot of talk in recent weeks about the Jaguars trading out of this spot and giving another team a shot at Sanchez, but with Sanchez slotted fourth in this projection, that scenario is out. Crabtree offers great value and a good fit here with his blend of size, hands and body control, and he would give QB David Garrard a legitimate weapon on the outside.

9. Green Bay Packers (6-10): Andre Smith, OT, Alabama

Top three needs: 3-4 OLB, 3-4 DL, OT

We've had DE/OLB hybrids Aaron Maybin and Brian Orakpo in this spot recently, but they are sliding a bit. Smith makes sense here because Packers OTs Mark Tauscher and Chad Clifton are aging and have dealt with injury, and Smith has bounced back from the disastrous start to his pre-draft preparation and now offers good value here.

10. San Francisco 49ers (7-9): Michael Oher, OT, Mississippi

Top three needs: ROT, QB, S

The 49ers want a right tackle who can step in and contribute right away, and Oher is a mauler as a run blocker who could do just that. The team would like to move current LT Joe Staley back to the right side, and this scenario will allow Oher to get used to blitz pickups and the speed of the NFL game before moving to the left side.

11. Buffalo Bills (7-9): Brian Orakpo, DE/OLB, Texas

Top three needs: Rush DE, C/G, TE

Orakpo is the top-rated DE/OLB hybrid in this draft and we think he is a better fit at end in a 4-3 alignment, which makes him a great fit for the Bills. His strength and burst off the edge will be a welcome addition for a defense that got only three combined sacks from Chris Kelsay and Aaron Schobel last season.

12. Denver Broncos (8-8): Tyson Jackson, DE, LSU

Top three needs: QB, NT, 3-4 DE

The interesting thing with Denver is that on paper, the Broncos need a quarterback. But even if Sanchez were to fall to the Broncos here, I don't expect them to pull the trigger. This pick is all about the D-line for the Broncos. If Raji somehow slips, they'll cash in and grab him. If not, Denver will take the best five-technique DE (interior DE in a 3-4) in this year's class.

13. Washington Redskins (8-8): Aaron Maybin, DE, Penn State

Top three needs: DE, ROT, strongside LB

There are three angles with the Redskins and this pick. One: If Sanchez falls, they take him. Two: They could mortgage their future and send draft picks to move up to take Sanchez. I'm not convinced they'll do it, but it certainly wouldn't be against owner Dan Snyder's style. Three: Assuming Sanchez is gone, they go either with an offensive tackle or a defensive end. In this case, Maybin is the best value on the board between those two positions, and his quickness and agility off the edge would give the Redskins versatility at the position opposite Andre Carter.

14. New Orleans Saints (8-8): Malcolm Jenkins, CB, Ohio State

Top three needs: OLB, FS, RB

The Saints have been rumored to have their eye on Jenkins' former teammate Beanie Wells, but Jenkins is the safer pick here. He has the versatility to play both corner and safety but would fit best at free safety on a New Orleans defense that is in desperate need of playmakers on the back end.

15. Houston Texans (8-8): Robert Ayers, DE, Tennessee

Top three needs: SS, NT, rush DE

Ayers is a one-year wonder, but he has good size and can get up the field after the quarterback. Adding him to the mix with DE Mario Williams and DT Amobi Okoye would present big problems for opposing protection schemes.

16. San Diego Chargers (8-8): Chris "Beanie" Wells, RB, Ohio State

Top three needs: ROT, RG, SS

The running back situation in San Diego is not as good as you might think. LaDainian Tomlinson has dealt with nagging injuries recently, Darren Sproles was given the franchise tag during the offseason and Michael Bennett is an aging backup who won't carry much of the load, so this is a good luxury pick for the Chargers. Wells would provide them with a big back who can keep Tomlinson fresh and allow Sproles to remain in a complementary role, and he would also provide some certainty for the future.

For the complete seven-round projection all the way to the 256th pick, including the drama surrounding the Jets at No. 17 and whether more than two running backs will come off the board in the first round, become an ESPN Insider today. Insider

17. New York Jets (9-7): Josh Freeman, QB, Kansas State

Top three needs: QB, WR, TE

The price to move up and get Sanchez is likely too steep for the Jets now that he's projected to go No. 4 overall, and there are enough questions about speedy wideouts Darrius Heyward-Bey and Percy Harvin to take them here. Freeman would definitely be a reach at this point given questions about his instincts and consistency, but his size and rifle arm could be enough to overshadow any concerns and push the Jets to make a desperation move. Quarterback talent drops off significantly after Freeman, and at this point he is New York's best chance to fill that need.

18. Denver Broncos (from 9-7 CHI) (8-8): Everette Brown, DE, Florida State

Top three needs: QB, NT, 3-4 DE

The Broncos will look to continue to upgrade their defensive front seven with this pick, and Brown could help fill out the rotation of perimeter pass-rushers. The wild card here could be a running back. If Beanie Wells starts to fall, the Broncos could look to take advantage and snag the Ohio State product because he's a perfect fit for Denver's zone-blocking scheme.

19. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (9-7): Brian Cushing, OLB, USC

Top three needs: QB, DT, OLB

The Buccaneers wil pass on somewhat-undersized DT Peria Jerry because they are trying to get bigger and more physical in the front seven than they were in the scheme of former defensive coordinator Monte Kiffin. While Cushing has limitations in coverage he fits the bill in terms of size and strength at the point of attack, and he has the versatility to play inside if needed.

20. Detroit Lions (from 9-7 DAL) (0-16): Peria Jerry, DT, Mississippi

Top three needs: QB, LOT, DE

New coach Jim Schwartz will rotate his defensive linemen throughout a game, and current DTs Grady Jackson and Chuck Darby are on the down side of their careers. Jerry would fit well in that rotation as a one-gap penetrator who can create havoc in the middle.

21. Philadelphia Eagles (9-6-1): Knowshon Moreno, RB, Georgia

Top three needs: WR, RB, TE

Offensive tackle is not a need area after the Jason Peters trade and Moreno is a tremendous value at this point in the first round. Moreno's versatility makes him a good fit in Philly as the short-term complement to Brian Westbrook and long-term replacement for him.

22. Minnesota Vikings (10-6): Darrius Heyward-Bey, WR, Maryland

Top three needs: QB, ROT, C

There are questions about Heyward-Bey's route-running and hands, but he was the fastest player at the combine and his speed would provide a downfield threat for an offense that needs to prevent defenses from ganging up on RB Adrian Peterson.

23. New England Patriots (11-5): Clay Matthews, OLB, USC

Top three needs: OLB, strongside ILB, CB

If Jenkins falls, don't be surprised to see the Patriots take advantage of that and select him. His versatility fits perfectly in New England. But if he's not there, Matthews has "Patriots" written all over him. Matthews' best football is still ahead of him, he has great NFL bloodlines, he can play multiple roles on defense and he will be a special-teams demon from Day 1.

24. Atlanta Falcons (11-5): Brandon Pettigrew, TE, Oklahoma State

Top three needs: DT/NT, OLB, S

Atlanta really wants to target defense with this draft, but there isn't a player close to Pettigrew's value at this point. Assuming the Falcons don't bring in a veteran between now and the draft, they have to go with the only first-round TE in this year's class if he's available.

25. Miami Dolphins (11-5): Vontae Davis, CB, Illinois

Top three needs: CB, WR, NT

Davis is perhaps the best cover corner in the draft and a top-15 talent, but he has fallen a bit due to concerns about his work ethic and consistency. Still, he makes perfect sense for a team that made the playoffs last year but needs a playmaker in the defensive secondary. Davis is a great value at this point, and on a team with strong leadership in the front office, and the locker-room character concerns are not as significant as they might be for other teams.

26. Baltimore Ravens (11-5): Kenny Britt, WR, Rutgers

Top three needs: WR, CB, ILB

Britt is the perfect fit in Baltimore with his combination of size, hands and better-than-expected top-end speed. He would provide another reliable option for QB Joe Flacco and add to a receiving corps that has struggled to stay healthy and counts on big contributions from aging veteran Derrick Mason.

27. Indianapolis Colts (12-4): Percy Harvin, WR, Florida

Top three needs: DT, WR, OLB

The Colts are most likely to use this pick on a defensive tackle or wide receiver, and while WR Hakeem Nicks is worth the pick, he does not have the type of speed Indy looks for in its pass-catchers. That means Harvin is the pick, and questions about his durability and attitude are worth the risk at this point in the first round.

28. Buffalo Bills (from 12-4 CAR through Philadelphia) (7-9): Eben Britton, OT, Arizona

Top three needs: DE, C/G, TE

Buffalo traded away Jason Peters to get this pick, and Britton will help fill the void left by Peters' departure. Britton has good size and good feet and will fit in nicely with the Bills' offense.

29. New York Giants (12-4): Hakeem Nicks, WR, North Carolina

Top three needs: WR, strongside LB, OT

There's a lot of speculation about Braylon Edwards being traded to the Giants, which would cost New York this pick. But there hasn't been a deal yet, and if the Giants hold on to this pick and don't bring in a veteran, Nicks is a no-brainer. He's big, has exceptional hand-eye coordination and is ready to contribute for Eli Manning right now.

30. Tennessee Titans (13-3): Rey Maualuga, ILB, USC

Top three needs: WR, DT, MLB

Tennessee's biggest need is at wide receiver, but that has been the Titans' biggest need for the past half-dozen years and they haven't used a first-round pick on a receiver yet, so why start now? The Titans would like to move Stephen Tulloch to the outside where his lack of size is not as much of an issue, and Maualuga would give them a big downhill thumper who can stop the run in the middle and showed underrated pass-rush skills at the Senior Bowl.

31. Arizona Cardinals (9-7): Donald Brown, RB, Connecticut

Top three needs: RB, OLB, LOT

Brown lacks exceptional breakaway speed, but he's instinctive, tough and versatile enough to contribute on all three downs in the NFL right now. Arizona doesn't have to take a running back here, but it would be wise to take advantage of Brown being there, especially with an aging Edgerrin James and a still-unproven Tim Hightower as the only two backs on the roster.

32. Pittsburgh Steelers (12-4): Max Unger, C, Oregon

Top three needs: OT, CB, 3-4 DE

Cornerback could be a possibility here, and Alphonso Smith, despite his lack of ideal size and top-end speed, has the playmaking skills and toughness to fit well in Pittsburgh. But this is the time for the Steelers to develop young talent along the offensive line, and Unger's size, strength and versatility are better suited for what Pittsburgh looks for in an offensive lineman, and give him a slight edge over Alex Mack and Eric Wood.
