30. 49ers- Amini Silatolu, OG- Midwestern State
31. Patriots- Harrison Smith, SS- Notre Dame
32. Giants- Jonathan Martin, OT- Stanford

 *Analysis:* The Jaguars, Panthers, Bills, Seahawks, and Patriots(no. 31) all could trade down in the draft to acquire more picks. The Eagles, Jets, Cowboys, Chargers, and Lions are all strong possibilities to trade UP in the draft.  I'd be willing to bet Brandon Weeden is taken in the first round by the Browns, if they can pry the Pats 31st pick. Janoris Jenkins, Doug Martin, Coby Fleener, and Nick Perry are also players that could be taken in the 1st round. Courtney Upshaw, Quinton Coples, Dontari Poe, and Riley Reiff could all plummet in the draft. Gonna be a crazy night!

2012 NFL Playoffs: Conference Championship Predictions

AFC:
PATRIOTS- 31
Ravens- 27

The Patriots offense was firing on all cylinders in their dismantling of Denver. Baltimore won ugly against Houston, and barely. Brady over Flacco is what it comes down to.


NFC:
Giants-21
49ers- 17

This is a simple case of momentum. The Giants made quick outage of the 15-1 Packers, in a 37-20 rout. They have a fearsome pass rush, and Eli Manning and his receivers are extremely dangerous. I feel that SF does not have the ability to take advantage of the Giants' weak secondary, and loses because of it.

This would set up a Super Bowl of:
Patriots vs. Giants. (Hello,rematch anyone?)
