It's Time To Mock #6

Same as usua, lots of underclassmen. Well aware not all will declare. Draft order is based on current standings and using strength of schedule from another site.

Star-divide

1.   Rams               QB                  Jimmy Clausen                         Notre Dame***

They need their future signal caller. I give a slight edge to Clausen over Locker. If any of the "big 4"(Clausen,Locker,Bradford,Mallett) impress in an interview and workouts it will be their name called.

2.   Chiefs              S                      Eric Berry                                    Tennessee***

Decisions, decisions....... Berry? Suh? Okung? Bryant? If any team wishes to trade up the Chiefs will most likely listen. I gave them Berry but really it could be anyone.

3.   Browns            QB                   Jake Locker                               Washington***

Maybe they go Suh? Will Mangina even be coaching? Personally I think Brady Quinn got hosed but with the benching maybe they go Locker.

4.   Lions               DT                    Ndamukong Suh                       Nebraska

Suh or Okung? Schwartz remembers what a force inside meant to the Titans run last year. He will try to duplicate that with Suh.

5.   Buccaneers    DE                   Carlos Dunlap                          Florida***

He has been playing better lately so he could see his stock moving up again. Bucs have two DE's hitting free agency and they traded Gaines Adams, so Dunlap could hear his name called here. This should teach them not to win games you went from the #1 overall to #5 with one victory.

6.   Redskins        T                      Russell Okung                          Oklahoma St.

Tough choice go for the QB or someone to protect the QB? Okung could replace Samuels if he chooses to retire.

7.   Raiders           LB                    Travis Lewis                              Oklahoma***

WOW! Didn't see this one coming. Wait yes I did it is Al Davis. They have some LB's hitting free agency and Lewis does run a 4.48. Show of hands who had Bey as a top 7 pick? Show of hands who had Mike Mitchell as a 2nd rounder? Thought so.

8.   Titans              DT                    Gerald McCoy                            Oklahoma***

They get a force inside. Some like McCoy better than Suh.

9.   Seahawks      QB                    Sam Bradford                            Oklahoma***

The heir to Hasselbeck.

10. 49ers             DT                      Terrance Cody                          Alabama

I really don't like putting Cody this high but I do believe he does go to either San Fran or Miami. Could be a force inside..... when he's breathing.... and not an air machine on the sidelines.

11. Bills                WR                     Dez Bryant                                 Oklahoma St.***

They could go tackle here but with TO leaving and Hardy can't stay healthy. Bryant would be a nice complement to Lee Evans.

12. Dolphins       LB                      Rolando McClain                      Alabama***

The tuna usually goes D in round 1 so that leaves us Austin, Jones, McClain, Mays or reaching for someone else. I went McClain.

13. 49ers (CAR)  T                       Bryan Bulaga                             Iowa***

I was kind of leaning towards Ryan Mallett here with the uncertainty of their QB situation and then I remembered in my last mock someone mentioned "you forgot they have Nate Davis" and Nate Davis >>>>>>Ryan Mallett. And that was when I had them taking one in the 3rd round. So no QB for San Fran because they have Nate Davis. 

14. Jaguars         DL                    Marvin Austin                              North Carolina***

I figured Marvin Austin would be a nice pick for them because if they do the 3-4 he can play DE if they go 4-3 he can play inside. If they decide not to play defense at all then this was a wasted pick, much like what would happen if they draft Tebow here.

15. Packers         T                       Bruce Campbell                        Maryland***

Is there any doubt that they need a tackle? Anyone?

16. Broncos (CHI)  DE                Arthur Jones                              Syracuse

I never did like Kyle Orton, I never did like Jay Cutler. Now I have no 1st round pick. Life of a Bears fan is GREAT!!!!!

17. Jets                WR                   Damian Williams                     USC***

They need WR's. Braylon is free agent hell everyone but Cotchery is.

18. Ravens           CB                   Joe Haden                                Florida***

They could go WR here or they could grab the best corner in the draft.

19. Texans          S                       Taylor Mays                               USC

They could use some help on D. Mays could be a steal here.

20. Giants           LB                     Brandon Spikes                        Florida

They have some pending free agents at DT so they could go there or safety help in case Phillips never fully recovers. I gave them Spikes instead. Don't know why.

21. Chargers      WR                   Arrelious Benn                          Illinois***

They have free agency issues at WR. Benn would be a terrific asset there.

22. Falcons         DE                   Derrick Morgan                         Georgia Tech***

Helps the pass rush. Guess it's not bad that he is local as well.

23. Steelers        S                       Morgan Burnett                        Georgia Tech***

Morgan just to let you know Troy uses Head & Shoulders. DON'T ASK WITH YOUR EYES!!!!!

24. Eagles          LB                     Sean Weatherspoon              Missouri

Witherspoon and Weatherspoon watch out. They'll spoon you.

25. Cardinals     T                        Charles Brown                         USC

Replace Gandy instantly and I mean instantly they'll take him right now.

26. Seahawks (DEN) T              Anthony Davis                          Rutgers***

Replaces Walter Jones. What a nice career he had.

27. Bengals        S                       Earl Thomas                            Texas***

I don't think Thomas declares but anywho he would help their improving D.

28. Cowboys      T                       Trent Williams                          Oklahoma

I don't know what direction they go first. They could use a DE/NT (either or) but none really warrant this pick Williams is better suited at RT instead of LT so he doesn't really replace Flozell. I don't know.

29. Patriots         LB                     Sergio Kindle                            Texas

They need to up the pass rush.

30. Vikings          QB                    Ryan Mallett                               Arkansas***

He doesn't fall this far someone will trade up for him.

31. Colts            DB                      Ras-I Dowling                          Virginia***

Kind of in the mold of Marlin Jackson. Corner that can play some safety.

32. Saints          S                         Chad Jones                              LSU***

I wouldn't be surprised if Dwyer is selected here. Jones helps a secondary that can loose Harper and/or Sharper.

 

33. Chiefs          RB                      CJ Spiller                                  Clemson

Dwyer might get the nod over Spiller but man has Spiller been impressive this year.

34. Browns        RB                      Jonathan Dwyer                      Georgia Tech***

They need to run the ball and Dwyer will replace Lewis.

35. Lions           DE                      Everson Griffen                        USC***

I don't know. No matter who I put here I get told no.

36. Bucs            LB                       Greg Jones                               Michigan St.***

Can play inside or outside. They have some free agents at the LB position.

37. Rams         WR                      Golden Tate                              Notre Dame***

Clausen gets his go to guy. You know they will be on the same page.

38. Raiders      DE                       Greg Hardy                                Ole Miss

I don't know what Al will do. Maybe Trindon Holliday?

39. Patriots (TEN) TE                  Jermaine Gresham                 Oklahoma

They're not afraid to draft a TE high (Graham, Watson). These are the kind of moves that makes people hate the Patriots.

40. Redskins     QB                     Colt McCoy                                Texas

Originally had this Christian Ponder but with him saying he'll stay at Florida St. (which I still don't 100% believe) it becomes McCoy.

41. 49ers           G                         Mike Johnson                           Alabama

Baas is a free agent and Johnson could slide right in there.

42. Bills             T                          Gabe Carimini                          Wisconsin***

Now they get their tackle to protect Trent Edwards (if it's still his job).

43. Dolphins     WR                     Brandon LaFell                        LSU

They go WR here since Parcells went D in round 1.

44. Panthers      DT                     Brian Price                                UCLA***

No QB? I think it all depends on who is coach. If Fox is still coach Delhomme is safe and they'll bring in a veteran to back him up. They have some free agents on the DLine and Price is excellent value here.

45. Seahawks    RB                    Jahvid Best                               California***

He will improve that running game.

46. Patriots (JAX) G                     Mike Iupati                                 Idaho

They have free agents at guard. If they let them walk they can grab one here.

47. Bucs   (CHI)   S                     Reshad Jones                          Georgia***

Jones is nice value here. I believe he can play free or strong safety. They just need to add talent.

48. Jets               DL                    Jared Odrick                               Penn St.

WIll move to DE in their 3-4 D.

49. Ravens        WR                    Terrance Tolliver                        LSU***

Now they get their WR. I nice big target for Flacco.

50. Packers        LB                    Eric Norwood                             South Carolina

Don't know if he falls this far. If he does watch out Green Bay has had a nice draft.

51. Giants          S                         Deunta Williams                      North Carolina***

Insurance for Phillips.

52. Texans         DE                    Brandon Graham                       Michigan

Nice value here. They need to keep adding talent to the D.

53. Chargers     LB                      Von Miller                                   Texas A&M***

Merriman is a free agent. I've heard some say that he will be gone. Miller can get to the QB and even made Okung look foolish a couple of times.

54. Chiefs (ATL)  G                     Rodney Hudson                        Florida St.***

Keep adding to OLine.

55. Steelers        CB                  Donovan Warren                         Michigan***

Will replace Deshea Townsend. I like him alot.

56. Eagles          DE                   Jason Pierre Paul                      South Florida***

Could go higher if he comes out.

57. Cardinals     LB                    Jerry Hughes                             TCU

Pass rusher is what he is rush passer is what they want.

58. Broncos       OL                    Zane Beadles                             Utah

Some say he is a tackle, some say he is a guard, Broncos have free agents at guard. Beadles it is.

59. Bengals       DT                    Lawrence Marsh                       Florida ***

They could use another DT in case they loose Tank.

60. Cowboys      DE                   Adrian Clayborn                         Iowa***

With them taking a DE, Ratliff will stay inside.

61. Patriots        DE                    Cory Wootton                              Northwestern

Probably goes higher. I could have probably given him to the Cowboys. I should probably quit rushing this mock and take my time.

62. Vikings        CB                    Patrick Robinson                       Florida St.

Could go DT but Robinson is good value here.

63. Colts            T                       Selvish Capers                          West Virginia

Don't know if he lasts this long but he did in my mock so here he is.

64. Saints         LB                     Navorro Bowman                       Penn St.***

Could fall due to character concerns but on the field he is dynamic.

 

65. Browns       NT                    Phil Taylor                                    Baylor***

Eventual replacement for Shaun Rogers.

66. Lions           T                       Ciron Black                                 LSU

Helps protect their investment in Stafford.

67. Bucs            WR                  Demaryius Thomas                   Georgia Tech***

I really do believe he can be the steal of the draft.  They have some free agents at WR unless Clayton and Stroughter are good enough.

68. Rams         CB                    Trevard Lindley                           Kentucky

They need talent. Period.

69. Chiefs        T                        Lee Ziemba                                 Auburn***

Keep adding to the line.

70. Titans         DE                    Cameron Heyward                    Ohio St.***

Don't know if he falls this far or if he even declares. Heyward and McCoy are improving that D.

71. REDSKINS   DE                 JEREMY JARMON                     KENTUCKY

Redskins used this selection in the supplemental draft.

72. Raiders       T                      Joseph Barksdale                      LSU***

They have a couple free agents at tackle. But as always who knows with Al.

73. Bills            QB                    Jevan Snead                               Ole Miss***

Now they go QB. Don't know if this is too high or low for Snead.

74. Dolphins     LB                   Ricky Sapp                                 Clemson

They need a pass rusher to replace Porter and Taylor.

75. Panthers     LB                   Rennie Curran                          Georgia***

Still no QB. They have some free agents at LB as well and Curran is excellent value here.

76. Eagles (SEA)  T                 Nate Solder                                Colorado***

Winston Justice is a free agent and Andrews is injured... frequently.

77. 49ers         CB                    Kareem Jackson                       Alabama***

Couple free agents at corner.

78. Bears         T                       Tony Washington                      Abilene Christian

Wow no 1st or 2nd round pick thanks Jerry Angelo. A Hole Angelo has said they need to improve the OLine (at least that is how I understood it). With the recent success of Danieal Manning and Johnny Knox I could see him trying Abilene Christian again.

79. Browns(NYJ)  LB              Brandon Lang                             Troy

I don't know, I'm sure I'll find out from TRSS who should go here.

80. Ravens     DE                     Vince Oghobaase                    Duke

Great value pick.

81. Packers     CB                   Dominique Franks                    Oklahoma***

Woodson and Harris aren't getting any younger.

82. Jaguars       QB                 Tim Tebow                                   Florida

This changes if they take him in round 1.

83. Texans        CB                  Javier Arenas                             Alabama

In case Dunta leaves.

84. Giants         DE                 Greg Romeus                             Pittsburgh***

Don't know if he falls this far but he would be a steal.

85. Chargers     T                    Sam Young                                 Notre Dame

They have some free agents on the line.

86. Falcons      LB                   Quan Sturdivant                         North Carolina***

Don't know if he falls this far but he plays defense and that is what they need.

87. Steelers      T                     Jason Fox                                    Miami

In case Colon leaves.

88. Eagles        CB                  Omar Bolden                              Arizona St.***

In case Hobbs leaves.

89. Cardinals    CB                 Alterraun Verner                         UCLA

Because I still think they need a corner.

90. Broncos       LB                   Micah Johnson                        Kentucky

Don't know.

91. Bengals       TE                  Rob Gronkowksi                      Arizona***

Can you tell I'm getting tired?

92. Cowboys      WR               Dezmon Briscoe                       Kansas***

I like this guy and he is a WR which is something the Cowboys could use.

93. Raiders (NEP) S              Major Wright                                Florida***

Don't know. Once again don't try and guess what Al will do. You will loose every time.

94. Vikings          DT               Jarvis Jenkins                            Clemson***

Probably doesn't drop this far he would be a great pick up here.

95. Colts            LB                 Obi Ezeh                                     Michigan***

Don't ask any questions.

96. Saints          DT                 Allen Bailey                                 Miami***

You know if the Bears wouldn't have traded their 2nd round pick I would only be doing a two round mock. If they didn't trade their 1st it would only be a 1 round mock. If you like the long(er) mocks thank Jerry Angelo, if you don't you can dislike him with me.   By the way Bailey probably doesn't drop this far. I don't know why I use so many underclassmen but I do.

tjh, There is nothing wrong with Griffen @ #35 for the Lions

They are all about best value. They could go in any direction, DE, CB, S, T, G, ..frankly a WR or RB would not shock me here. The only positions I think are out are DT [because of Suh in Round One], TE, C, or QB.
Some potential second round picks LT- Jason Fox [my first choice]; S- Jones or Allen or one of the half dozen other good ones available; CB- Warren, Arenas, or Lindley. Unless they think they can get one of these guys early in the third. I would take Arenas ahead of the other two.

Now you mention guard but a couple of weeks ago I had them taking Mike Johnson and you didn’t like it. I was thinking about Reshad Jones or Selvish Capers at that spot. You wouldn’t mind a RB? So Jahvid Best could be a option?

No, Best might not play again

by TheRealSlimShady on Nov 10, 2009 9:48 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

I don't know

Its only a concussion, and I heard talk about him being able to play a game or two at the end of the Season. Some analyist said it was like Tim Tebow’s concussion injury. The only difference i guess is that this is Best’s 2nd concussion.

Thats Not

Too uncommon. I have a friend who was paralyzed for about 5 seconds after making a tackle. Got up and played the next down…

Hell I had that happen to me before

It’s nothing he will be back on the field.

I think this almost guarentees that he comes out. Shelf life on a RB is short as is with concussion issues now on the rise now is the time for him to leave.

I would not like it if the Lions went for a Guard at #35....

I just said it is a possibility depending on how they value the available players. I personally don’t want an RB this early in the second, but again, it depends on who is available and how Schwartz/Mayhew have them rated.

My preference would be LT-Jason Fox or Anthony Davis or Charles Brown but it is possible that the last two and maybe all three will be gone. I don’t like what I have read about Capers.

My second choice is a CB. There are a lot of very good safeties that still might be around in the third or fourth round.

My third choice is a DE. Griffen, Morgan, Romeus, Heyward, or JPP.

by NorthLeft12 on Nov 11, 2009 7:22 AM EST up reply actions   0 recs

If we've already filled OT and OLB with two possible first day starters

I could live with a CB in the third. I really hope Hughes falls that far.

My personal opinion is that if Micah Johnson were on the board in this scenario they’d take him. With Dansby’s departure all but certain, they’ll need an ILB to groom (if not start fairly early).

Be careful....to a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

"Wow no 1st or 2nd round pick thanks Jerry Angelo."

Really?

Is Jay Cutler not worth a first round pick?

Now, if you want to question the 2nd round being given up for Gaines Adams, I could listen to you. But they weren’t going to draft someone as good as Cutler with that pick. Not even close.

Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.

by Tackle Box on Nov 10, 2009 10:00 AM EST reply actions   0 recs

They gave up TWO first round picks

I think that’s where it bites them. Not having a first or second rounder in back to back years will catch up to you.

by Zorak84 on Nov 10, 2009 10:48 AM EST up reply actions   0 recs

I think the Cutler deal was a good trade.

You also have to look at what the Bears have done with their last few 1st round picks. Which is nothing. At least for two years in a row they can say they got a franchise QB who will be with the team for a long time.

Bottom line, I think Jerry Angelo has lost faith in his ability to draft well at the top of the draft. Now thats another discussion to have. But Cutler for two 1st round picks is a good enough deal.

Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.

by Tackle Box on Nov 10, 2009 1:26 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

I don't know

You can’t keep trading 1st Round Picks and it not catching up with you. Jay Cutler is Worth a 1st, but maybe not 2 1st Round picks.

Who says they're going to keep trading 1st round picks?

I think they’ve only done it once (the Cutler trade) and you just said that Cutler is “maybe not” worth 2 1st round picks. Well, “maybe” he is. So, in that case it’s what got the deal done and you can’t make the argument that he’s not worth it.

Jay Cutler is a known commodity and is still extremely young and under contract through 2013. Sometimes when the right deal comes along you just have to take it. I don’t see the big deal. The Bears got a Pro-Bowl caliber, young, franchise QB. Not every team has someone nearly that good and QB has been an issue for the Bears forever. Now it’s not.

Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.

by Tackle Box on Nov 11, 2009 3:34 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

I'm not saying Cutler can be solid, i have him on my fantasy team,

I’m just saying that 1st Round picks should require extra hesitation because they unlock your team’s future.

 If you look at other similar Trades, most of them are not worth the picks and the money.

Look at the example of success and fail.

He was a Pro-Bowl quarterback

and was 25 when the Bears acquired him.

You’re arguing semantics.

Because Jerry Angelo hates me.

What good is a QB with a bad line and iffy WR's?

Worth a first round pick? Yes certainly. Worth two first round picks? Pushing it. I was never really big on Cutler. While our WR’s have done better than expected what good is a QB (worth two first round picks) if you have a average (at best) line and not so good WR’s?

I was high on Michael Oher and seeing we could have had him helping our line and possibaly draft a QB in this draft (Ryan Mallett perhaps?).

Honestly I’ve just never been a fan of Jerry Angelo, he gets by because every year he finds one guy later than round 3 that produces and the higher ups love that, nevermind the fact he can’t get the first two rounds right.

Show of hands who had Mike Mitchell as a 2nd rounder?

according to either ESPN or NFL network (don’t remember which one but think it was NFL network) your Bears would have taken him if the Raiders didn’t beat them to him.

I read that as well.

I would have probably disowned them at that point, thank you Al Davis.

DB to Indy is possible

I think OT or MLB are more likely but it seems like you were out of ones you liked as first rounders so DB is fine. If a stud Guard is there that’d be in my second tier of possibles with DB, behind OT and MLB.

I was torn between Greg Jones and Dowling at #31. I’m higher on Jones than others but decided Dowling might not be a bad choice he is in the mold of Marlin Jackson who I believe is a free agent.

Jackson will be a FA

but he could be back cheap, see below

Polian has publicly said that Bob Sanders will be back next year

and since 2010 is the cheapest years on the 6 year contract he signed after 07, it’s very believable.

Marlin Jackson will probably hit the market, but a guy that didn’t have good speed to begin with now on two surgically repaired ACLs might not be able to find a home outside of a cover 2, barring a move to safety. It’s possible he’s back for cheap. Hayden’s been nicked up but he’s in year 1 of a 5 year deal so he’s going to be around for a long time. Bullitt and Bethea will probably be back, either on RFA tenders or new extensions. The main reason I don’t think DB is a top level need right now is that the rookies, Jerraud Powers and Jacob Lacey are playing so well right now.

Luck is probability taken personally, clutch is probability attributed to individuals.

“I don’t know, I’m sure I’ll find out from TRSS who should go here”

I couldnt tell if this was a sarcastic comment, but:

Lang isnt a bad pick, but Wimbley has been great so far, and Trusnick has played well in his short time with the Browns.

I think a tackle or a CB would be a better pick. Franks, Fox, Arenas, and Young are all guys I would rather have.

No sarcasm, just wasn't sure what direction they would go in

I didn’t even think of a corner, it was between a tackle or Lang. I’ll keep corner in mind.

As evident by last week. So I’d hope we do not transfer to a 3-4 Defense.

some observations

I know people keep disagreeing with your Lions picks but I don’t know who they take. If last year was any indication for future drafts, they will take BPA no matter what (except for QB now).

As a Buffalo fan I agree the team needs a WR but I don’t see them drafting one in the first two rounds. If a stud DT or QB is there they may take him but I still believe LB and OL are the top priorities.

For those of you who think KC should take Suh, remember he’s probably best suited as a DT in a 4-3. KC plays a 3-4 where Suh would probably be a better fit as DE. They just took Tyson Jackson last season and Dorsey has been moved to the other end spot. They could trade down to try and get one of the other DTs or just draft OL / S which are their biggest needs.

Do you think SD takes a RB like Dwyer in the first or even a DT like Cody or Austin if he’s there? I just think there are a lot of WRs in the draft that SD would feel comfortable waiting on.

The Patriots and Saints are hard to figure out.

For most of your picks I agree though it’s obviously way to soon to know what’s going to happen. I enjoy your mock drafts each week. Keep up the good work.

by Zorak84 on Nov 11, 2009 9:20 AM EST reply actions   0 recs

I don’t think a “stud” DT will be there, while Arthur Jones and Marvin Austin are good I can’t help but not put them high. I thought putting Austin at #14 is a little high. I had them taking Travis Lewis a couple mocks ago and was told that there is pretty much no way that happens. It came between Bulaga and Bryant and Bryant won out in my mind just due to no matter who is the QB their WR situation is unsettled. Lee Evans is very underrated and Hardy just can’t stay healthy.

If Cody falls to the Chargers I do believe they snatch him up. QUICK. But I don’t see him falling that far more teams are running the 3-4 now and need a NT, with San Fran, Denver, and Miami picking before them I believe one of them will take him. I would not be surprised if San Diego took a RB in round 1. Tomlinson is slipping and Sproles is a pending FA. They could look at Dwyer or Spiller there.

Thanks for the comment.

great draft!

only pick I really disagree with is Gronkowski to the Bungals, but only because the coaching staff is high on Chase Coffman, but are still teaching him how to block. I’d give them Jarvis Jenkins or Allen Baily there.

I could see the Chiefs passing up Suh for Berry, only because of scheme. But if they switched back to a 4-3 (just a hypothetical, cuz god knows it wont happen), imagine Hali / Dorsey / Suh / Jackson. Wow. Run against that, I dare you. But anyway, Suh wouldn’t fit in a 3-4 (I don’t think), especially one as crowded with talent (albeit that doesn’t fit either cough Dorsey cough).

I think people really have to incorporate trades in their mocks. For example, what are the Browns gonna do with Brady Quinn when/if they draft a QB? I think the Redskins are the perfect candidate, and a conditional 2011 2nd round pick would do. But the same could be said for the Bills, Jaguars, Panthers, 49ers, Seahawks, Titans, and even the Chiefs, Raiders, and Broncos (still waiting on Kyle Orton to fall apart…it will happen)

Suh to Lions equals wet dream to William Clay Ford. Great pick.

That kinda puts the Bucs in a bind, because Suh has been their target for over a year. I think if it plays out this way, they go ahead and reach for Gerald McCoy. I think Dunlap has been relegated to the realm of late 1st round at this point.

Okung to Skins is very solid.

Travis Lewis to the Raiders is a very good pick. Well, I mean its a very Al Davis pick, but I think it could play out perfectly. They will retain one of their two big time LBs, possibly both. and adding Lewis to play SLB would be amazing. Even so, they need some protection from DTs.

I really dislike Cody going top 10. He is a 2 down NT in college. Whilst a beast at what he does, man…he seems more like a fringe 1st rounder. Granted, I know someone is gonna reach for him, I still don’t think that top 10 is viable. More like late teens or early 20s.

Bryant is good value for the Bills at 11.

McClain to Dolphins at 12 is amazing value.

Bulaga over Bruce Campbell?

Marvin Austin at 14? A little bit of a stretch, but I could see it.

I personally see Art Jones falling to the 2nd round on draft day because of his season ending injury. But if the Broncos get that pick, I could see them reaching for him.

Haden and Mays are great picks at that position on the board.

I’d give the Chargers Charles Brown there. Rejus Benn is doing nothing this year, albeit because Juice Williams can’t throw him the ball, but nothing nonetheless.

Love the Clausen-Tate combo for the Rams.

I fucking hate the Patriots :D

Norwood and Brandon Graham as mid 2nd rounders…!!! I’m horrified. I can see Norwood falling, but Graham is a beast. Top 10 on my board. Love the guy.

Ciron Black would have to play G for the Lions. They have a solid RT in Gosder Cherilus.

Barksdale has the makings of an amazing LT in the league. Great Raiders pick.

Bailey to the Saints at the bottom of the 3rd round is amazing for them.

All in all a good draft, I disagree with a few picks, but I see what your getting at with them. Great work

by birds'n'raiders on Nov 11, 2009 10:09 AM EST reply actions   0 recs

I gave the Bengals a DT in round 2. Lawrence Marsh. You think they need another one?

I’m not going to incorporate trades. Mocking is hard enough. You get too many fans of teams now that don’t like who there team picks then trying to sell them on a trade. HA good luck. I’ll leave that to someone else.

I was thinking of McCoy to the Bucs. They are a team that needs talent. They have some free agents coming up and they could go a number of ways. I was even thinking Dez Bryant there. Dunlap is playing well right now and it just so happens that this is the time to pick it up a notch. If and this is a big IF Dunlap can keep this up I do believe his stock moves right back up to top 10 status. McCoy, Dunlap, Bryant, even Okung. I would not be surprised by any.

I dislike putting Cody that high as well, I just feel with San Fran, Denver, Miami all in that area all could use a NT he won’t get far. I’m not huge on him as is but I can’t see him being passed by these teams that run a 3-4.

To me Bulaga and Campbell are virtually even. You can talk me into Campbell over Bulaga and then someone can talk me right back to Bulaga.

I really do believe that Marvin Austin will skyrocket up draft boards with workouts/combine especially if he runs the rumored 4.8 40 (Al Davis). With him going to Jacksonville I saw the versatility which they need until they decide on which D they run.

I did this mock before I heard of Arthur Jones out for the year.

Yes Benn isn’t having a great year but I do see him being a workout warrior plus I’m a little biased I’m a Illini fan.

Some say Graham can play OLB in a 34 some say no. I don’t know. With having Derrick Morgan and Everson Griffen in this draft that can drop him plus if teams don’t think he is a 34 OLB then he can drop a tad more due to a few more teams running the 34.

thanks for the comments

amazing...

how a lot of things change over a couple weeks….

for example, I just want my Eagles to keep up the string of injuries so we can end the year with a high enough draft pick to fetch Eric Berry, because at this point, with all of the injuries we’ve had, its a virtual certainty we won’t win the Super Bowl. But, its also a virtual certainty that we will be close…God dammit!!!!!

Guys we’ve lost for the year:
1. Stewart Bradley, potential All-Pro MLB. ACL tear. Season, over.
2. Shawn Andrews, All-Pro OG, RT. More back issues. Season, over. Career, possibly over.
3. Cornelius Ingram, potential mega-TE. Lit up Training Camp, moreso than Brent Celek, who will be in the Pro-Bowl this year. ACL tear. 2nd tear of same ACL in less than 2 years. Season, over. Career, most likely, over.
4. Stacy Andrews, beast OG, brother of Shawn. Recovering from ACL tear at end of last year. Having setbacks. Facing hard time returning to the starting lineup. Season, up in the air.
5. Ellis Hobbs, Nickle-Back/KR. Having a crappy year, but a lot of the stuff we do in the secondary is based on the Nickle CB coming in. Depth, gone.
6. Brian Westbrook. Beast/RB/WR. Always injured. Career, plus or minus 1 season left.
7. Kevin Curtis, solid WR. No one has any idea, but he hasn’t been healthy since the NFC Championship game last year.

Fuck it, lets just develop young players, rest the vets, and go for it next year…

How do you pay for all that talent? You guys should be undefeated and winning by thirty points every game. I guess you are just unlucky.

Kolb can be good…but lets not call him all-pro yet. Vick is basically a POS at this point too.

McNabb has his inconsistencies..but he is the only All-Pro QB they have.

The Eagles have done a great job.

They actually have a TON of cap room. Most of these guys are all by way of the draft or a few shrewd trades/signings.

Jacobs…well, really nothing. Since the SAINTS GAME!! Actually he’s been normal Brandon Jacobs for the most part. The Eagles game was actually his worst one.

Its just kinda funny that they give Jake the ball 20+ times when he’s <4YPC…yet when he’s the normal Jacobs…rumbling around and knocking the snot out of people gaining 6+ YPC…only 11 times.

They’ve been taking him out on third down and using Bradshaw…who has a fractured foot!….

I dunno man. I think they need to get Danny Ware involved. I thought he’d be a Derrick Ward type…but Coughlin’s got him in the doghouse for some reason…..

It was not a shot at your team, it was a shot at your attitude. Optimism is good but a few of those guys you mentioned have long histories of injuries. Yes they are talented, but have always been held back by recurring spells of injury. Why did you think it would change?

That is my #1 reason for avoiding OT Bruce Campbell of Maryland. If a guy is injured in college, it is unlikely that will improve in the NFL.

by NorthLeft12 on Nov 13, 2009 9:06 AM EST up reply actions   0 recs

tell me about it...

a few weeks ago..the Giants were the hardest team to peg in the draft cuz they had it all.

The Giants don’t have the injuries of the Eagles…yet its the nagging sort that’s killed them.

The O-Line is banged up.
-McKenzie looks old and slow. Seubert is banged up and just doesn’t seem to get out on the pull as he used to. Diehl was very good last year and early on this year as the LT, but there’s something there that say he needs to go back to LG where he could be one of the best in the game.

D-Line-the GIants 2 FA haven’t done squat. Tuck is banged up and in an out. Osi’s recovering from offseason ACL. Robbins and Cofield are recovering too from microfracture surgery…and have been below average (for them…)

LB-Pierce is old, slow and shot. Boley can’t stay on the field. Not a single LB they’ve drafted can beat out frickin Danny Clark…..They need some infusion of talent here.

Secondary? The injury to KP is huge, he was really the scaffolding of the entire secodary.

Kicker sucks. Punter is old and can’t kick the ball 40 yards.

Even the RB’s are constantly hurt.

…..all that said, a few wins and like the Cowboys…there’s no needs at all :)

I'll stick with Shady......even the Browns and Lions and....

want to win and have ridiculous hopes for a Super Bowl. Signing and playing a bunch of guys who have long histories of injuries [ie. Westbrook, Andrews brothers, B. Jacobs, C. Ingram, etc.] then expecting them to play for a full season injury free makes no sense to me. That is not being unlucky. Peyton Manning getting seriously injured is being unlucky because he never has.

Yeah, injuries suck, no matter who they happen to. We don’t use them as an excuse for not winning very many games, you should not use it as an excuse for not winning the SB. In the end, nobody will care why you did not win the SB, they will just know that you didn’t.

by NorthLeft12 on Nov 13, 2009 9:20 AM EST up reply actions   0 recs

thing is...

its not guys like Jacobs..the Andrew brothers…Westbrook, etc. that is the problem.

Both teams know they’re all injury prone and have taken precautions (Eagles-McCoy, lots of capalbe O-Linman..Celek was the starter anyway) and the Giants (Ware, Bradshaw..even Andre Brown was drafted and put on IR, )

They don’t expect them to play full season…so that’s why they do the logical thing and have backups.

Those guys being injured is also not the problem

Its guys like Stewart Bradley, Kenny Phillips, Kevin Curtis—role players that are solid, yet not injury prone. Bradley and Phillips were about to become stars for their team.

So yea, a team that doesn’t win the SB looks like all the other ones who don’t win it.

But a team with no hope it doesn’t really matter.

I know its hard to listen to, cuz you and “shady” are fans of the Lions and Browns, while I’m a Giants fan and bnr is an Eagles fan.

But that’s just the way it is.

One injury is not really gonna make a difference for the Browns or Lions. They could be 100% healthy and still suck.

I like OG depth.

How versatile is Arthur Jones?

whats the deal with greg hardy?

Some people have him as high as a top 10 pick and someone have him in the second round

Ryan Mallet...

omg this guy is amazing. I’m officially on the bandwagon. He is the best QB in this class. Looks like Peyton Manning with his command of the field, and has an arm that may be stronger. Dude has the best play-action fake I’ve ever seen from a QB. Its already better than Brett Favre’s. His pump fake needs some work. Footwork is great, but can get sloppy when he relies soly on that cannon mounted to his right shoulder. His accuracy has gotten incredible over the past 3 weeks.

easy now...

they played Troy.

I said it back from the Georgia-Arkansas game tho, Mallent is a future #1 overall.

I thought it would be next season, but yea…its possible this season.

but the best no.

only reason I want next year uncapped

is to cut JaMarcus loose without any dead money. And Javon Walker.

lol.

He seems like the QB that “Jamacus” was supposed to be.

ya..i know..

but Mallet actually plays well consistently, has pocket awareness, gives a shit about the sport of football, and isn’t a piece of shit loser. JaMarcus can’t say as much. Only thing JaMarcus has on Mallet is he can throw the ball 10 yards further from his knees. In fact, that’s the only thing they have in common, a strong arm.

all that's true

..tho I would say, I think Mallet’s arm strength could match ‘Jamacus’.

Mock #7

New mock coming Friday. I’m including more rounds because I broke my leg and have absolutely nothing better to do.
