I think I would give that haul very high marks if it happened in real life. Personally, I love Dez Bryant as a prospect, would be shocked to get the best C and likely second best interior lineman in the 2nd round and Patrick Robinson in the third feels like incredible potential value. Honestly, if you want me to pick a nit, I’d be interested in the two guys you have following our selection at #81 (Gerhart and especially Cam Thomas) instead of Robinson…

lions will not go best.. we have a speed back in brown.. try harder

I’m not wild about Anthony Davis, but I can’t complain with Clausen, a LT, and Greg Hardy.
I’m not sure Tate will fall that far either.

Vikes fan: I’d have to give this a seal of approval. Although with guys like Lamarr Houston and D’Antony Smith still on the board in the 2nd I’d pick nits and take him over Selvie. Edwards is a RFA and I think he’ll stay, making tackle a more pressing need. Kyle Wilson, Lamarr Houston, Dan LeFevour….I’d be happy.

Also, I need to fix something: “Who is the QB in 2 years next year?” There.

KC Fan – Im glad you realized that the oline drastically improved over the last half of the season. Brandon Albert shut down edge rushers, and the online only gave up 8 sacks in the last 6 games. A LT is not needed at the 5th pick, and pioli DOES NOT select OL in the first rd. The pick will be McClain, or trade back and grab Graham.

but I think FA will shake up this board big time. I can see the Dolphins going after a playmaker like Spiller or a WR in the 2nd round if they address the NT and WR position in FA (I also feel Williams is a reach at 12) But if not I would def still be very please with these results

I’ve seen some mocks with him going to Pitt or Hou

How Brown conveniently falls to us at 32 in this mock. You think that’ll happen? I hope so, but dude’s got top 20 potential if he comes to the combine close to 300. I know you have a theory on Daryl Washington in the 2nd, but I’m still skeptical the Colts will draft a line backer that early. Joe Pawelek in the 5th seems more their style (though don’t get me wrong, Washington is a perfect fit).

I love the Arenas pick; it kills two birds with one stone. The Colts need CB depth and a dynamic returner, and he’s the second or third best punt returner in this draft. He strangely doesn’t have a very fast timed speed; shades of Jerraud Powers. But I always see him going way before you have him. For most of the year people considered him a fringe second rounder and you have him at the last pick in the third.

So I could see the Colts trading down if they don’t land Brown in the first. Since they don’t have a bunch of needs they could try to develop a guy like Ducasse or Selvish Capers (who’s like a bigger, rawer version of Brown). Then if it were me, right now, I’d go ahead and take Arenas at the end of the second and take a pass rusher in the 3rd (by the time the draft rolls around people will be all about Austen Lane in the 3rd…he could tower over the rest of our undersized defenders like a Pop Warner coach does over his players).

so that’s good.

They probably need a RT sooner then a OG, but Tennant’s too good to pass up.

If you did 5 rounds, hopefully its Angerer in round 4 and RT in round 5.

I like Morgan Burnett (and Chad Jones) but I’m on the Nate Allen bandwagon right now. Until the combine/pro days for these other 2 at least.

That was Larry Allen’s spot. It would be nice to have a pro-bowler there again.

Nice job. I like the Viking picks but do agree with jianfu above. I think they will keep Ray Edwards and that need is less than picking up Lamar Houston.

Also, yes the Raiders pick makes too much sense. No way they do that. They are always looking for that bang pick. This doesn’t fit that mold.

        The Rams should probably go a different direction for that pick, like offense. It would be hard to pass on Best if he was still available at the top of the third.
        The first 2 picks are right in line with what I’d do. I think Best won’t make it that far so I wouldn’t be disappointed in defense if we got Arenas or Perrish Cox.
        Also Syd’quan Thompson is from Cal

This is one of the better and more realistic drafts for the Cards to date. LB’s and defense is our top priority.

First off, his athleticism is not his forte. His size is. He is more mauler than he is athlete. He did not play in a zone blocking system.

Davis is 330 lbs or so. Alex Gibbs has a reputation for playing O-linemen who are less than 315 lbs, and he monitors their weight throughout the season. He wants athletic linemen with excellent feet. That is not the profile that Davis fits. Gibbs runs the ZBS, a system of blocking that Rutgers does not utilize.

Of course, even if Davis’ athletic measurables surprise people at the combine and that it caught Alex Gibbs’ attention, it would leave the idea open that Davis could I have a hard time seeing him losing weight before or after the combine, as it would affect his draft stock. Again, Davis could shed that weight for training camp and the regular season. However, given his frame, and the type of blocking that he’s used to, I’m not so sure that would be advisable for him. He came to Rutgers at 368 lbs, and had to shed 40 lbs. to play.

The two linemen that seems to fit the Alex Gibbs profile athletically are Charles Brown and Mike Iupati, though Iupati is also 330 lbs. and as I have suggested, the weight can be shed before training camp, and his frame can withstand losing 15 lbs.

Secondary and OT are huge needs and the pass rush didn’t look bad with Clay Matthews and Brad Jones off the edge. It could get better in Raji’s second year too.

I like the Okung pick in the 1st a lot, but not so sure about Colt McCoy in the 2nd. Is he your pick because you think that highly of him, or do you think that Daniel Snyder will be pushing for him?? I am not sure if he is #1 QB type player or if he will turn out to be #2 QB type player for his career.I guess his arm strength would be the biggest downside IMO but who knows….

I like the O-Line pick in the 2nd, but the Bills probably have enough RT candidates that it’s pretty imperative they get a LEFT tackle more than a right.

If we draft any Oline it will be a guard. Our Tackles are set but RG has been a revolving door the past two seasons. Since there are no safeties worth that pick wewould take Norwood.

why does everybody have Damien Williams going to the Bengals? Is he better than Demarius Thomas? not in my rankings. And im not the only one who thinks this. Please add some creativity in your mocks

thats exactly what we need. A big guy on the outside that can stretch the field. a Rookie WR isnt going to do much anyways. So why not have a guy that excells at doing one particular thing? We need to replace Chris Henry. Andre Caldwell is our guy that can start opposite of chad. Now we need a guy to get deep

that pretty much every mock draft referrences how crazy the team’s picks are. The Raiders almost need a range of picks or some kind of qualifying answer that the pick will depend on Davis acquiring some level of sanity.

Where have I seen those Ravens picks before? Oh yea, I made them. Glad to be on the same page with you.

One of the round 2’s will be a WR. Bank it.
