1 Round 2012 NFL Mock Draft

but felt that corner was a bigger need and take away the character issues and Jenkins is arguably the top corner in the draft. Both make perfect sense in my opinion

even though most mocks these days have resigned to the fact that we will take Coples.

Nice win by the way, as much as it pains me to say :-(

With Benson likely gone and the next best option been Scott I figured you guys need a running back pretty bad, Richardson likely won’t fall past Seattle so i had you guys trade up, with another 1st round pick i didn’t feel as though a 2nd rounder was much to give up for the best running back prospect to come out in a few years

But I think one of the two fall to us. If not Konz, BPA/Gilmore, Martin

but outside of the top few picks nobody can say with any certainty what will or won’t happen, for the next year or two Tebow is gonna need quite a bit of help and a big pass catching tight end would help immensely that’s why I mocked Fleener to you guys, you certainly could pass on offence and go defence early and often though like you suggest

I wouldn’t hate a tackle if one fell to 25 to push Franklin in to guard where he was for most of his collegiate career. the center Konz would be interesting to replace Walton who has improved but doesn’t look like a long term answer at center. Also if a WR like Jefferey fell I wouldn’t hate that. And RB would make sense. It’s probably a top 5 need for this team. I too would prefer a CB, DT, S, or MLB, which I would say are our biggest needs but if the right player fell I wouldn’t care.

Having said all that, I really don’t think a TE will be the way the Broncos go in the 1st. Maybe in the 2nd round but I feel fairly confident in saying the Broncos won’t go for a TE in the first. I just don’t think there is a good enough TE in this draft to warrant the Broncos giving up on Virgil Green and Julius Thomas, who were both drafted last year by Elway and Co.

Kuechly playing next to Washington in Arizona, I could be wrong though.

for Wright or Sanu in my opinion, if it’s a receiver for philly as it is here i think it will be Floyd. Not a fan of Wright at all and would take Floyd over him without hesitation, I like Sanu but he’s more of a late 1st early 2nd round pick but that could change come April though.

Always encouraging when fans who know their team better than I like my picks, thanks.

I’d be pretty shocked if the Bears didn’t go either WR or OL in the 1st.

I would venture to say Seattle trades with Houston, instead of NE to Select the future bust from aTm. Especially if Poe, Jeffery, or Fleener are all gone, I can see them moving back.

Thanks for the info, it seems as though the Texans have needed a #2 WR forever and Wright was the consensus best receiver available so that’s why i had him mocked to you guys. I’ll probably change it in my next mock.

Those injuries just kind of enhanced your need for a tight end, Allen happens to be one of the best players available also so it fits your draft philosophy too.

even as a pats fan I have absolutely no idea what Bill is going to do. I’ve been mocking us d-line and OLB in the 1st round for the past 3 years. We still have Love Deaderick and the returning Myron Pryor on the d-line and Wilfork still has a few great years left in him yet, I think we go d-line in the 2nd or 3rd round, in this mock we end up with 3 2nds so we have plenty of ammo. I don’t think Perry fits into our defense at all, we’ll be returning to a base 3-4 this year and Perry doesn’t fit ours at all, way too small to play OLB, Bill won’t draft someone in the 1st who is only going to be in on sub packages, plus he only has the one year of top tier production which will scare some teams off as well. I think we go corner in the 1st and move McCourty to safety full time, Dowling, Minnifield, McCourty and Chung sounds good to me. Having said all that I wouldn’t be surprised with anything Bill does.

I just felt that Bill will look to trade out of that pick and with a possible franchise quarterback there it made sense that he would be the guy to trade up for. Miami, Cleveland and Buffalo could all be in the market for a QB so getting in front of those and avoiding the frenzy at the start of round 2 would make sense. I could absolutely see some team trading up for Allen also though I think a team looking at a franchise QB rather than a tight end would be more likely, could go either way though.

I agree that DeCastro is the better player but I felt that Richardson filled a bigger need and would be a bigger impact player for you guys. Dalton, Green and Richardson would be a fantastic young core to build your offense around.
