DT's First Ever Mock Draft on MTD

I think Wright is a good pick, but definitely not @ 7. Reiff or Coples are better value.

Especially if a team takes Osweiller that high.

I agree with you on Burfict being a 1st rounder (I see him as the next Patrick Willis or Ray Lewis) but everywhere I look everyone has his character issues knocking him out of the 1st round.

With Barron I expect his injury to knock him out of the first round.

Fine by me

Head case. Can’t bench press. Bad attitude. Dumb penalties.

But is there a specific reason you go with a NT instead of a WR for the Texans?

Too much talent. Brown is the most likely of LB’s to go to us though, even if I don’t like his lack of wrapping up.

That would be a massively wasted pick because Tannehill has a higher bust factor than Colt McCoy. If they had any sense, they’d take Alshon Jeffery there & give McCoy some better weapons, then start getting him some linemen to protect him better

Nelson or Griffin will fit fine…

Just so you all know, I don’t think he is a top 10 or even top 32 pick in my mind. I scouted the ACC this year and the guy was horrible. He was flat out horrible. I know a team will reach for him, but he was horrible this season. So i just wanted to make that clear that he is over rated. To me there are many better DE’s in this draft than Coples. He is bust material

They have no immediate need for a defensive tackle, I assume you project Still to move out to defensive end in their 3-4 defense. Justin Smith is starting to get up their in age but has yet to slow down and they possibly already have his replacement on the roster in either Demarcus Dobbs or Will Tukuafu. I could see them drafting a defensive tackle that projects to end later in the draft, but not the first round. The immediate needs are wide receiver, guard if Adam Snyder isn’t re-signed, and cornerback if Carlos Rogers leaves in free agency.

may be the surest hit in the draft, yet you have him below Burfict & falling to 25?

Try again.

No real problem with the pick. From my point of view I would have drafted Alshon Jeffery. I think he’s the 2nd best WR though. And there’s others including yourself that think he belongs somewhere after Sanu and Floyd. The Philly guys are going to get all hurt if they havent already cause you took a LB. Reed usually err always goes play maker or linemen in the 1st. And Claiborne is not that good. Thanks for the mock

Just not that high.

If Upshaw is there at 12 I think he is the guy the Seahawks take. Osweiler in the 2nd.

Konz to GB is interesting. I think TT is going to re-sign Scott Wells for another couple of years, so I wouldn’t look for a replacement this year. But if he’s too expensive, TT has been known to move on from veteran players after they crack 30, so it’s certainly possible. As for OG, we have Josh Sitton on one side who will hopefully return to his form from 2010 and T.J. Lang, while not star, held his own pretty well.

I think I’m going to be disappointed if this first pick isn’t on the defensive side.

I dunno about us taking Miller with Glenn and Konz still on the board.

This is udderly preposteriorous

Why would they pass up on him for Trent Richardson? The drop off between Richardson and another RB is slight compared to the drop off from RG3 to Tannehill is substantial. The Browns haven’t had a franchise QB since Bernie Kosar. They will not pass on RG3, just to come back later in the first round and reach on a QB who played WR up until mid season in 2010.

Kalils the target for us anyway. RGIII has enough value to make this not a slam dunk. I still think a team could take him and hold him for ransom. Especially a team like the Rams who could make anyone of 3-4 different guys our 1st pick and still come out alright.

The Eagles have never taken a linebacker, safety, or runnimg back in the first round since Andy Reid became the head coach. I don’t see that trend breaking anytime soon.

I see the Eagles taking a DT, WR, or OL prospect with their first round pick.

I’ve been waning on that point in my personal mocks (which occur exclusively in my head). Bold, sir. Bold.

It really adds to Mocks. When I just see names and spots it just feels like someone threw names that sounded good down. Not that I think that’s what you did or anything it’s just I feel that Mocks are much more enjoyable when that person’s rationale for picking said player is. well at least for the 1st rounders. It’s a great post otherwise, don’t like the way your draft fell for the Giants but ehh unless Brockers falls to em (damn near impossible) I probably wouldn’t be happy. Mock drafts and prospect profiles are the best parts of the offseason bar none for me.

Sees Richardson at #4, dismisses entire post as worthless.

Please stop mocking Richardson to Cleveland at #4.
Also if Griffin falls as far as #4, (I doubt he will), no way the Browns pass on him. If the draft goes as you want it to for the Browns, I will bleed to death from my eye sockets.

Love the Claiborne pick. Every time.

Will snap up RG3 regardless of what happens with Peyton Hillis. At 1-22, the Browns could go after Kendall Wright.

No RG3 at 1-4? This definitely brings Richardson, Blackmon and Claiborne into play. I’m not Blackmon’s biggest fan, but TR and Claiborne would be the best alternatives at 1-4.

Tannehill at 1-22 ain’t gonna happen. The Browns can wait for Nick Foles, or another project/depth QB later.

Of the prospects getting draft after Cordy Glenn at # 23, I like Peter Konz, Zach Brown, Mark Barron, Mike Adams, and Chase Minnifield (in roughly that order) more than Glenn.
Our biggest OL needs are Left Tackle or Center (Backus and Raiola are by far the oldest OL), and we’re relatively stable at Right Tackle and the two Guard spots, so I’m not sure where Glenn fits in.

RGIII drops to number 6, the skins will have to trade up to Rams to get him away from the Browns.

JR has shown that he’s not afraid of taking a kid who has tremendous potential and athletic ability in the 1st. I just REALLY doubt he goes LB. I know everyone says he goes BPA and to an extent I agree. I think its more BPA/positional value. I dont think he values the LB position in the draft to spend a 1st rounder. Also, we have a 3-4 young lbers on the team that have shown flashes, in particular Jacquain williams is the same type of mold of a Zach Brown (although brown is a much better prospect) If brown is gunna have to sit behind Boley for 1-2 years i think we just stick with Williams.
Looking at Reese’s drafts for his career in the first 2 rounds hes taken:
WR:3
DB:4
LB: 1
DL: 2

For all those drafts, Giant fans have been screaming for him to take a LB. He’s only taken one (2nd round), Clint sintim, A pass rushing specialist DE/LB tweener. I like brown, just dont see him being the pick.

I’ll take Adams even though he looks and sounds like a Starks clone.

Just because the front office is making a good move by stating “they will look at everything this off season” doesn’t all of the sudden mean they’re going to go hard for Manning. That would be a terrible move, I would hate it, and it’s not going to happen.

Love that Richardson pick

They have many holes to fill on offense, but I think a QB can be had either later on in the draft, through FA or next season

Definitely need a RT, also, but that can be done in the 2nd or 3rd
