Week of the Event, Mock 3.0
51 picks. A few trades. More ruminative than predictive.
Round 2
Big, possibly too big. But you cannot wait too long to take a tackle.
(Porter)
(Porter)
This would check off the last of their top 3 needs. Can take the top off defenses.
(Anderson, Richardson)
(Anderson, Richardson)
Freak with 34" arms. They'll wait a round for a receiver.
(Levis)
(Levis)
(from LAR) I don't like that they pretty much need to draft a rookie starter. They still need a WR and a pass rusher.
People think the Giants might take him in the 1st. They've worked him out.
(Smith-Njigba, Van Ness)
(Smith-Njigba, Van Ness)
Still passing on Hooker (he'd likely be 27 when taking over for Jimmy G). O'CT is seen as 1st-round worthy but needs the right scheme.
(Gonzalez)
(Gonzalez)
I'll have them hold off on a WR and take Ojulari to line up across from Brian Burns.
(Young)
(Young)
The next Kamara, although Carr is no Brees.
(Murphy)
(Murphy)
Small slot receiver. Better value than the next tackle (Bergeron?).
(Stroud)
(Stroud)
(from NYJ) Getting a good bit of 1st round love, but there are medical concerns.
(Mayer)
(Mayer)
Possibly the strongest guy in the draft, they hope he can improve his pass rushing.
(B. Jones)
(B. Jones)
The position is a no brainer. Would they pass on Hooker here?
(Skoronski)
(Skoronski)
Another DL. He has a bit of size to him and they could move him around.
(Mayer, Bresee)
(Mayer, Bresee)
Converted from edge rusher to Mike LB and now may be converted back.
(P. Johnson)
(P. Johnson)
FBS tackle, prog guard. Missing some from teeth.
(Banks)
(Banks)
His production wasn't good, but that's UGA. At worst, he'll be a good blocker.
(Witherspoon, Robinson)
(Witherspoon, Robinson)
He probably won't go this low, but he is 25 years-old and wasn't making NFL reads last season.
(Wright)
(Wright)
A bunch of these pass rushers are rated similarly.
(Porter, D. Jones)
(Porter, D. Jones)
I suppose if you're going to forfeit a 1st round pick, this is the year to do it. The only problem with this pick is its a position that doesn't often make an immediate impact.
