NFC West Draft Needs

Arizona
1- Linebacker: The Cards need a passrusher at OLB and an ILB to replace Karlos Dansby.

2- Offensive Tackle: Levi Brown may be moving to LT but he has never been that good. There is still a question mark opposite him as well.

3- Cornerback: Bryant McFadden was a bust in free agency, so outside of DRC, there isn't any solid corners on this team.

San Francisco
1- Secondary: The 49ers need upgrades at corner and safety. Their secondary was probably the biggest weakness in 2009, and it needs to be addressed early.

2- Right Tackle: In order for this offense to really take off, the 49ers need a new RT to pair up with Joe Staley on the left side.

3- Quarterback: Alex Smith has the confidence of the coaching staff, but not of me. Smith is mediocre at best. If the 49ers had a real QB, this team could be special.

Seattle
1- Left Tackle: Matt Hasselbeck has been abused the past couple of years from bad protection from his line, and the running game has gone nowhere for the same reason. Now that Walter Jones is likely gone, this need is even more glaring. LT has to be addressed in round 1.

2- Secondary: The Seahawks whole secondary is a disaster.

3- Defensive Line: Part of the reason for the secondary's poor play, is because the Seahawks can't register any pressure on the QB. Upgrades at DT and DE are needed.
Side note...this whole roster is a mess. Good thing they took a 43 OLB in the top 4 last year... Thats like the Rams drafting a fullback this year. (Exaggeration, yes, but you get the point..)

St. Louis
1- Quarterback: The last team to look at, is the first team on the clock! They're roster is a mess and they have no options at QB. No brainer.

2- Defensive End: Leonard Little is gone, and besides Chris Long, there are no reliable DE's on the team. For a defense that lacks a good secondary, generating some passrush is a big time need.

3- Wide Receiver: I could've listed CB here, but with the first overall pick likely being Sam Bradford, it'd be a wise idea to get him some outside weapons.
