Mock 1.0

PrintAs the basis for this draft I used the reverse order of ESPN's latest Power Rankings
1. Cleveland Browns: Ndamukong Suh, DT, Nebraska
The Browns are just so bad at so many positions, they just should go with the clear #1 player in the draft.
2. Detroit Lions: Russell Okung, LT, Oklahoma St
History has taught us that the most important thing for a young QB is to keep him upright. I bet the Lions wish they picked Oher instead of Brandon Pettigrew with their 2nd 1st rounder last year.
3.St.Louis Rams:Jimmy Clausen, QB, Notre Dame
It is clear that Bulger is no longer the answer at QB and Clausen will receive all of the pre-draft hype.
4. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Gerald McCoy, DT, Oklahoma
The Bucs need help on the defensive line and McCoy could remind some Bucs fans of Warren Sapp.
5.Oakland Raiders: Tim Tebow, QB, Florida
Jamarus Russell wouldn't be 2nd string on half the teams in the league, and well, who knows what the Raiders will do on draft day with Davis.
6. Kansas City Chiefs: Bryan Bulaga, LT, Iowa
The Chiefs allowed three sacks to the Jaguars for crying out loud.
7.Buffalo Bills: Sam Bradford, QB, Oklahoma
The Bills don't have anyone at the position who instills confidence combined with a new head coach next year makes this easy
8.Seattle Seahawks: Jake Locker, QB, Washington
One local hero is drafted to replace another
9.Washington Redskins: Colt McCoy, QB, Texas
New Coach=New QB
10.Denver Broncos (via Bears): Eric Berry, S, Tennessee
Too much value to pass up
11. Tennessee Titans: Arthur Jones, DT, Syracuse
They need to replace Albert Haynesworth somehow
12. New York Jets: Dez Bryant, WR, Oklahoma St
Sanchez has a line that keeps him upright, time to give him a new toy
13. San Francisco 49ers (via Carolina): Ciron Black, LT, LSU
The 49ers need help on the O line and their isn't a better physical speciment than Black. I think he'll shoot up the boards during the off season.
14. 49ers redux: Terrance Cody, DT, Alabama
If he can condition himself to be a 3 down player, he may surpass Suh.
15. Miami Dolphins: Rolando McClain, LB, Alabama
Best 3-4 LB in the draft
16. Jacksonville Jacksonville: Morgan Burnett, S, Georgia Tech
The pieces are starting to come together on defense for the Jags, except at the safety position
17.New York Giants:Brandon Spikes, MLB, UF
Just as McClain was the best 3-4 LB in the draft, Spikes is the best 4-3 LB
18. Green Bay Packers: Charles Brown, LT, USC
They have the QB and the weapons, but not the line
19. Atlanta Falcons: Joe Haden, CB, Florida
The Falcons have had issues with their corners this year and this will help sure that up.
20. Houston Texans: Marvin Austin, DT, UNC
More potential than production
21.Philadelphia Eagles: CJ Spiller, RB, Clemson
About time the Eagles had a proper RB
22. Baltimore Ravens: Segio Kindle, LB/DE, Texas
Never have enough line backers in the 3-4
23.Dallas Cowboys: Golden Tate, WR, Notre Dame
The #1 jersey seller in the NFL needs a target
24.Denver Broncos: Greg Hardy, DE, Ole Miss
Still could use some pass rush help
25. San Diego Chargers: Taylor Mays, S, USC
He's had a bad year for sure, but so have the rest of the Trojans
26. Arizona Cardinals: Brandon LeFall, WR, LSU
It seems Boldin will be on the first train out of Arizona in the off season
27. Pittsburgh Steelers:Trent Williams, T, Oklahoma
Time to help the offensive line other than with spit balls and chewing gum
28. New England Patriots: Jonathan Dwyer, RB, Georgia Tech
The biggest impression I came away from Sunday night was how far the Pats have gone away from the run.
29.Cincinnati Bengals:Carlos Dunlap, DE, Florida
Too much talent at this point, despite him being an unfinished product
30. Minnesota Vikings: Trevard Lindley, CB, UK
Don't see any obvious need beside a QB of the future and nobody worth taking here
31. Indianapolis Colts:Sean Witherspoon, LB, Missouri
How is this team 9-0?
32. New Orleans Saints:Jahvid Best, RB, Cal
Reggie Bush isn't working out

Weird.
First of all, I get that Berry’s an awesome talent, but I just don’t see yet another big investment in the defensive backfield for Denver. More importantly, however, our original pick (#24 above) belongs to the Seahawks.

No way the Cards are taking a receiver in the 1st round.
They have Steve Breaston to fill in for Boldin when he leaves. Early Doucet had also played nicely as the third receiver.
Cards will most likely go ILB (only if Karlos Dansby is gone), OLB, OT, or TE with this pick. With who you have available at our pick (#26) I think they would go with tackle Trent Williams.
"how is this team 9-0"
Because they are far more talented and better coached than most teams in this league.
Hope that answers your question
yea I didn't get that one either....

Philly has two proper RB's
McCoy and Westbrooke, I don’t think they’ll get another.

Westbrook may retire....
and McCoy really is more of a Westbrook type tho a bit more of a potential workhorse than Westbrook.
Its the Eagles tho. As long as Andy Reid’s there, he’ll never get a power back to run behind his line (that averages 360lbs…).
SHOULD the Eagles grab a HB like Dwyer to balance everything out? Hell yea. Will they? Probably not.
I would say tho, Spiller could make sense for them. They seem to be trying to create the “Greatest show at the Linc” with DJAX, Maclin and McCoy. Adding Spiller as their 1A RB to combine with McCoy might fit their bill.

Westbrooke will probably be back, at least I think so
He always have some kind of injury and he always comes back. Eventually he’ll retire from all the wear and tear but I don’t think this year is his last.

Do you know what his injury is? This isn’t a hamstring or a knee like it always is. Its 2 concussions in a couple weeks.
This is his life, not his career..his life. I don’t think he wants to be a stuttering fool like Emmit Smith when he’s 40.
When your talking about his current state, football doesn’t matter enough to come back and risk your competence.
There’s a good chance he will retire and if he did no one would blame him.

Die hard Eagles fan here
while i would love to see him back if he can return to his 2006-2007 form, realistically that is not going to happen and the rumor is that the Eagles have already declined his option for next year so I dont think he will be back next year but i dont see the Eagles taking a RB in the first.
I thought Emmit had always been a stuttering fool?

This Mcok is just Weird
You have Tim Teebow and McCoy going tht early but you have Berry falling. Weird man.
That Falcons Pick Is Looking Like It Might Be Higher Then We Thought.
I have Ronnie Brown, Micheal Turner, and Dwayne Bowe all on my fantasy team.
Reggie Bush ain't working?
Ya cause he’s not there best playmaker overall. Dude, what’s with this mock? And Arthur Jones, Tim Tebow, and Colt McCoy going that high? Eric Berry, only the best defensive player in the country, that low?

by TheRealSlimShady on Nov 18, 2009 11:48 PM EST up reply actions
Eric Berry is a top 3 talent. For him to fall to number ten would be a joke.
Taylor Mays is also too low. And the Cowboys don’t need a WR now with the emergence of Miles Austin. They’ve invested too much in Roy Williams so he’s not going anywhere.

You never know what is going to happen
Last year Crabtree fell to two two years before that Adrian Peterson fell to 7th. To quote Jim Mora " You think you know but you just don’t"
no doubt...
that’s the problem of doing a mock in November tho…
You think them falling now is stupid…but by March, it may seem right (like it did with Crabtree and somewhat with AP).
Regardless….I think the team that gets Berry or Mays is gonna be real happy.
…I do think that Mays is more of a LB tho, an a potentially beastly one at that.

Not really
He’s a safety, and he’s got flaws. His hype is a bit too much at this point. I wouldn’t be too surprised if he falls quite a bit more than 10th.

quick question
what exactly is a “proper” running back? And how is CJ Spiller one if LeSean McCoy isn’t? Just wondering.

Spiller went to ettiquitte school
He’s very proper now. McCoy is a slob.
by Brendan Scolari on Nov 20, 2009 2:10 AM EST up reply actions
This would be about the worst case scenario for the Niners IMO
They take an overrated right tackle #13 overall and then take a very limited player right after that. I don’t buy Cody as a top half of the first round guy, particularly with guys like Haden, Spiller, Mays, and Dunlap still on the board.

Brandon Pettigrew
Is grading out very well, thank you very much. The Lions drafted the top players on their board, and so far their draft last year looks strong from rounds 1-7.
Post on Pettigrew in 2 years.

Very true.
but…..would you rather have a franchise LT or a Franchise TE??????
"It ain't over till its over"---
by FreeBradshaw on Nov 20, 2009 1:06 PM EST up reply actions
The only T left when the Lions picked Brandon Pettigrew was Oher
the question becomes would rather have Okung or Oher?
That is...
if they get Okung (he might be gone..they might go with Suh or McCoy….or Dez Bryant)
I agree with you, I think they screwed up by not taking Oher. Pettigrew can be the next Jason Witten…still doesn’t matter cuz their LT is a sieve.
Oher would cost a WHOLE!!!!!!!!!! lot less $$$ too. Like, $20+million less.
Not knocking Pettigrew, I think he’ll be a very good TE, he’s a good blocking and receiving TE.
Its just….you don’t take a TE over a franchise LT.
But that’s why the Ravens are the Ravens…and the Lions are the Lions.

Who's to say Oher is a franchise tackle? Not even through his 1st year!
obviously the Lions didnt think he was. He wasnt the highest rated player on their board at pick #20. We already have a young RT, they didnt see Oher having the ability to step in right away and out produce Jeff Sackus. However short sighted that might have been.
Their strategy could have been to see how Sackus does with a new o-line coach, and scheme. He struggeled mightily in whimpy zone blocking. If he was unable to rebound then they can evaluate who comes out in the ‘10 draft. Either way we werent making the playoffs this year. We are in step “one” in another new regime’s building plan. If their is a chance you have a player who can perform, you just dont ship him out. We cant afford that.
This team has only made one blunder in my opinion in the past 10 months and that was losing to St. Louis. Other than that the talent has been upgraded across tyhe board (doesnt say much), effort has been improved, and strategy has been sound.

by Leapin Lion on Nov 21, 2009 10:45 AM EST up reply actions
you can believe that if you want....
Oher could be a starting LT or potentially a franchise LT. He’s not t he LT on the Ravens…cuz they got a pretty good starting LT already.
If it pans out in 2010…it pans out.
Taking the highest rated player is one thing…but how much further down could Oher have been?
When you get an opportunity to draft a potential starting LT..which Oher is, you gotta do it.
You can’t bank on the next year that someone like Okung falls into your laps. I mean if they have the #1 pick again, then again its moot.

We are doing alot of assuming here
Oher “could” be a starting LT or “could” be a franchise LT. The Lions didnt feel that way. Pettigrew “could” be a pro-bowl TE, “could” be a hall of fame TE. Calling the Lions out half way through the year is premature.
The Tackles in this draft were overated in my opinion, still too early for me to sya that. Smith is St. Louis starting RT, Monroe last I checked is out with an injury, ditto A. Smith in Cincy. Oher is performing well, along with Loadholt in Minny. The Lions didnt see a significant upgrade talent wise from their current unit to spend high picks on these linemen. Pettigrew is on pace with Gonzo, Clark, and Gates in their rookie seasons. Not too bad.
2 or 3 years from now when the Lions should be well into this current turnaround, then place judgment on the drafting of Pettigrew. But now its too early.

Brandon Pettigrew’s projected receiving totals for 2009 match up favorably with the rookie seasons of some of the NFL’s best tight ends:

Antonio Gates 24 389 16.2 2

Man invented language to satisfy his deep need to complain. Lily Tomlin
so? Dustin Keller had 48 catchers for 535 yards...is he the next Gates?
Bottom line, you took a TE with a LT on the board. Teams reach on a LT when they’re there, but the Lions took BPA on their board
BPA might make sense for a team with no needs, but apparently a TE is more of a need for the Lions?
I’m not saying Pettigrew is a bad player. I’m saying the Lions took the wrong position.
They didn’t even take a LT or lineman in the top half of the entire draft…yet they take a TE?
That’s a very “Raiders” way to build your team…just picking the top player on your board available regardless of position.
Teams that have a team already…can get away with that sort of thing…or at least usually do it after the first round.
"It ain't over till its over"---
by FreeBradshaw on Nov 21, 2009 1:50 PM EST up reply actions
Teams with absolutely no talent whatsoever have no choice but to draft the BPA way. Drafting for position is what got the Lions in their predicament in the first place.
Last draft wasn’t a strong class. There wasn’t a consensus “best player”, just a consensus “safest player”.
I find it hard to believe...
that the Lions were drafted for “need” when they drafted 4 WR in the top 10 from 2002-2007 (sorry to bring that up…)
I can’t see how Oher was so far down their board that he would be such a reach.
Is Oher a ‘franchise" LT? I dunno…that term is kind of stupid anyway.. a solid LT is pretty much all you need, and that’s what he seems to be and potentially could be a franchise LT.
If you get a starter, a solid starting LT at the 20th pick, it makes a whole lot more sense than a TE and MUCH more sense than getting a LT with the their top pick like they may (should) do this years draft.

Please don't bring up the players drafted by
“he who must not be named” Look at his track record, every move he made outside of drafting CJ has been a bust. And no offense to CJ, but we should have taken Joe Thomas and we wouldnt be having this discussion.
Man invented language to satisfy his deep need to complain. Lily Tomlin
If you look at those past rosters
the sad part is that they needed a WR each year. Rogers was hurt, M.Williams was a bust, R. Williams was overated. CJ is the stud he is.
Now, if you look back at the roster we had a lot of “need” on those barren teams. You could argue which position needed more love.
“he who must not be named” was completly incompetent and ruined my favorite team. But I have hope in the regime. it will be turned around.
Man invented language to satisfy his deep need to complain. Lily Tomlin
No because if you take the "need" position
And you pass on a superstar you have to hear about it from every know it all. A GM can’t win. You take pure talent in the 1st round. You dont reach, because when you miss it hurts you forever.
People bring up Randy Moss every year around draft time. The Lions passed on him for a “need” position and they got burned. We havent had a solid TE in decades, the opportunity was there and they grabbed him over what could be an average offensive tackle. a starting RT, well we have a 3rd year player in the position a former 1st round pick.
Man invented language to satisfy his deep need to complain. Lily Tomlin
Well yea..
if you pass on Randy Moss..that’s different.
Is Pettigrew THAT good? Is Oher THAT bad?
At the time, it made no sense. Teams still reach on OT’s when they can. From what I’ve seen from the Giants OT pick, Will Beatty..the Giants made a whole lot of teams look stupid cuz they have a potential starter at LT for the next 8 years.
Oher is basically doing what most thought he’d do when he was drafted, that’s start out as a RT (if he was forced to start) and then eventually become a LT, even tho with the Ravens he probably doesn’t have to with Gaither being their LT
Was Oher THAT far down their board? DId they really feel he’s a RT?
Cuz they better, cuz instead of being able to fix that horrendous defense…possibly being forced to pass up someone like Suh, they’re gonna have to invest in that LT.
THAT’s what I’m saying. Oher could be a bust…so could Pettigrew.
You could’ve gotten a solid TE later on in that draft. And since your so intent on waiting till this year, Jermaine Gresham could go to round 2 for the Lions.
So yea, you don’t reach for a need if there’s no one remotely close to the top of the board.
I just find it hard to believe someone like Oher was that far down their board that they go to a TE instead, even if the TE was Pettigrew.

He did for a game
and played well in the 1and 1/2 reg. season game’s he’s played in.
The Giants have 2 pretty good bookends, but if either went down Beatty has shown he could go in there and make it seem like a seamless transition.
They’ve said he’s their future starting LT.

by FreeBradshaw on Nov 21, 2009 6:28 PM EST up reply actions
I just remember at the start
of the draft hoopla that Oher was a potential top 3 pick. Then by the time the season ended and the draft approached he tumbled down the board. With a learning disability, didnt have great feet, yada yada yada.
I understand the Lions are not the Giants/Raven/Steelers/Colts. But in the past 10 years even in bad years those teams had more depth and talent than the Lions on every level. The new policy is to build up the talent base by taking the BPA. Take the blue chips when they are presented to you. Pettigrew has a higher ceiling than Oher (in the Lions opinion, and mine if it matters..lol)
Man invented language to satisfy his deep need to complain. Lily Tomlin
Interesting back and forth guys....
But only time will tell if Oher will be an everyday LT. I was very much surprised when Detroit bypassed Oher. I thought that it was a great opportunity. Obviously the Lions felt a lot differently and chose to go with Pettigrew. In the Lions defence, a number of other teams did not feel that Oher was a “steal” including the Patriots who traded out of that spot to the Ravens. The Pats picked up Vollmer in the second round who is doing very well in Matt Light’s spot right now. If the Giants wanted him, they had a trade set up with the Lions for the #20 spot if Maclin dropped, they could have done the same for Oher.
Let’s revisit this situation in two years.

From what I've heard...
the Giants wanted DHB, Maclin, then Hakeem Nicks.
I’m glad they never made that trade, cuz at the very least Nicks and Maclin are equal right now, and Nicks seems like he’s got better hands and is surprisingly faster than I ever imagined.
The Giants don’t have a need to go up and trade for a OL, not even close.
I agree with RSS, the Patriots are always intent on trading out of their draft position to stockpile picks.
Like the Giants, the Pats didn’t have a need to go out and draft Oher…they could draft someone like Vollmer or Beatty and let them develop.

Suh
Schwartz needs a dominate DT to make the defense click, and its clear that Suh is game changing player.
The LT position is deep this year and can be addressed later.
But if Lions feel as if Okung is the BPA then I have no qualms with the pick.

There are numerous LTs who will be available in the second round...
Jason Fox of Miami looks very good. Anthony Davis might make it to the second round and who knows how things will shake out in the off season. Personally I think the Lions have bigger problems than replacing Jeff Backus. They will have to do it sooner rather than later but to focus on an LT above all else is ridiculous.
Pettigrew
Was a monster sunday, glad we had him instead of Oher! =p
We miss you over at POD Bradshaw
Man invented language to satisfy his deep need to complain. Lily Tomlin
that was a great game you guys played.
Tough bastard you got at QB (…maybe if Oher was protecting him..he doesn’t get smacked around as much!)
I agree with Northleft, this is a deep LT draft.
No you should not focus on LT…you should focus on LINE. Aside from RT (Cherilus is pretty good for a RT) you could use a whole new line or at least talent surrounded the above average guys you got there.
D-Line would be smart too (and yea, Suh would be a good pick)..but you just can’t keep ignoring Line as a whole.
Stafford’s gonna be a tough bastard with broken ribs every year if you don’t protect him.

I was starting to say "No way Tebow goes in the first let alone 5th overall"
Then I looked again. I could see dead Al drafting him if he wows at Senior Bowl and Combine.
So… did you forget Bruce Campbell even existed? How’s he not up there?
The Bills are more likely to take a Tackle in the first round than a QB unless they’re up so high that Locker or Clausen will be available for them. I see them getting a Tackle first round and grabbing maybe LeFevour or Pike early in the 2nd round.
Bills fan? In Colorado? It's more likely than you think.
Cleveland
Did you guys know Cleveland has 11 picks in the 2010 draft? What a great year for multiple picks!
Unless you're the Browns
and you plan on just wasting them anyway. Have they brought in a new GM yet?
Steelers
Won’t be going O-line in the first round. Guarantee it. The line isn’t old and it has improved, and we have a decent amount of young guys on the PS, Should they? Yeah, but they won’t.
DB or LB are the main direction I’m looking for first round, but only if there isn’t a good NT available that they like. NT is #1 with Hampton going.
Nice to see another Steeler on this site.
I’ve given up trying to convince people we won’t go O-line, but looking at his draft, if the draft plays out like this we just might pick Williams. I only other one we would pick is Lindley and unless he can play Safety we won’t pick him what with our two rookie CBs
Yeah, which is why I could see a LB in the first, we have no depth outside, and only Fox in the middle. With Ziggy playing well and Harris back in the fold I don’t think we’ll go 3-4 end.
Any top outside LB’s, FS or NT that fell to us would be awesome, otherwise I could see us trading out of the first to get several we like later on again. Seems like another deep draft.
