ESPN's one-man draft enterprise, Mel Kiper, has issued his latest mock draft.
Buffalo Bills fans hankering for a quarterback will be happy with his forecast.
Kiper projects the Bills, slotted ninth, will draft Notre Dame quarterback Jimmy Clausen to learn at new head coach Chan Gailey's knee.
The Miami Dolphins own the 12th pick. Kiper predicts Alabama linebacker Rolando McClain will be their choice. New defensive coordinator Mike Nolan certainly could use some help at that position.
Although the New England Patriots frequently trade out of their assigned draft position, Kiper has to work with something. The Patriots earned the 22nd spot, and Kiper has them grabbing Clemson outside linebacker Ricky Sapp to shore up a shaky pass rush.
The final four draft slots haven't officially been assigned because they're determined by when teams get knocked out of the playoffs.
New York Jets fans will be disappointed to have the 29th selection, meaning they will have lost Sunday in the AFC Championship Game.
With that, Kiper has the Jets drafting Notre Dame receiver Golden Tate to give quarterback Mark Sanchez some much-needed help.
