Here is how I see picks 11 through 20 unfolding in the 2010 NFL Draft as of Feb. 23.
Denver Broncos - Dez Bryant, Wide Receiver, Oklahoma State: Bryant could end up being a stud wide receiver. He's got the combination of size and speed that most of the best receivers in the league possess. The Broncos could very well end up parting ways with Brandon Marshall this offseason, which would all but assure that they'd select the former Cowboy should he slide to 11.
Miami Dolphins - Rolando McClain, Linebacker, Alabama: McClain is a perfect fit for the Dolphins. They could definitely use some help at interior linebacker and McClain projects to be an old-school, sideline-to-sideline tackler that Bill Parcells would love to have.
San Francisco 49ers - Joe Haden, Cornerback, Florida: Haden is as complete of a cornerback prospect as anyone we've seen in a while. He won't wow you with his speed or athleticism, but he's smart and knows how to play the position. He's a good tackler and would fit in perfectly in the Bay.
Seattle Seahawks - Everson Griffin, Defensive End, USC: If the Seahawks go with offense with their first first-round pick, I think it's all but assured that Pete Carroll will look to get a defensive player with this selection. I'm seeing a lot of people projecting C.J. Spiller here regardless, but I think Carroll will find that he's really got something in Justin Forsett, a player that he surely remembers from Forsett's Pac-10 days. Carroll could very well look to bring in one of his own in Griffin, who would be a bit of a reach here.
New York Giants - Brian Price, Defensive Tackle, USC: The Giants' run defense was not what it was expected to be this season and they could look to fortify the interior of their defensive line.
San Francisco 49ers - Bryan Bulaga, Offensive Tackle, Iowa: The Niners would come away very pleased if they were able to land the best cornerback in the draft and one of the top-tier offensive lineman.
Tennessee Titans - Carlos Dunlap, Defensive End, Florida: Dunlap has had his troubles off the field, but the Titans have taken chances on players with talent before. He's a boom-or-bust prospect, but for a team in need of help rushing the passer he's worth the risk.
Pittsburgh Steelers - Trent Williams, Offensive Tackle Oklahoma: Williams would be a nice get for the Steelers here. Their offensive line struggled mightily last season, as Ben Roethlisberger found himself running for his life seemingly every week.
Atlanta Falcons - Kyle Wilson, Cornerback, Boise State: Wilson is rising fast and the Falcons need to shore up their secondary, especially at the cornerback position.
Houston Texans - C.J. Spiller, Running Back, Clemson: The Texans need to bite the bullet and select a running back in the first round. Spiller reminds a lot of scouts of a player that the Texans once passed on: Reggie Bush. With several decent backs already in place, Spiller would add that home run threat and could also be valuable in the passing and return games. He's an exciting player that will sell his fair share of NFL tickets.
