Yes, I know you're tired of mocks. We're less than an hour away from the start of the first round and you're ready to get down to the real thing; so am I. However, I have to get my mock on the record and I haven't had a chance to.
So no fluff, just the meat. Dallas selects... Mark Barron.
I think he makes it to 14 and I think Dallas runs up to the podium. He's everything you want out of a safety, despite all the ridiculous excuses you've heard from your friends over the past three weeks. Also, yes I've heard of the trade that Cleveland just moved up to #3, but what kind of guy cheats on a mock draft? My pick position stays the same.

|---|---|---|
| 1 | Indianapolis | Andrew Luck |
| 2 | Washington | RG III |
| 3 | Minnesota | Morris Claiborne |
| 4 | Cleveland | Justin Blackmon |
| 5 | Tampa Bay | Trent Richardson |
| 6 | St. Louis | Matt Kalil |
| 7 | Jacksonville | Michael Floyd |

| 22 | Cleveland | Brandon Weeden |
| 23 | Detroit | Peter Konz |
| 24 | Pittsburgh | Jonathan Martin |
| 25 | Denver | Michael Brockers |
| 26 | Houston | Janoris Jenkins |
| 27 | New England | Devon Still |
| 28 | Green Bay | Shea McClellin |
| 29 | Baltimore | Harrison Smith |
| 30 | San Francisco | Kendell Reyes |

So there it is, on the record. Don't say I'm ashamed to embarrass myself.
