Mocking in the free world: 'Mocking The Draft' gives us their two-rounder

And us to lose to the Bucs and Saints, in order for them to beat us? The only ones he has not beating us are the 3 that have no chance what so ever because even if they win the last 2 games they cant.

He’s a solid tackler, a solid run support corner, but he can’t find the ball when it’s up in the air to save his life.

Do. Not. Want.

The fact he has been a serviceable backup RT in his first year as a UDFA is amazing. He has not reached his ceiling, and I think better conditioning is in order.

Although, I do understand that the more quality players you have the greater the chance there is of one rising to the top and there’s also more competition making everyone better. So I wouldn’t mind bringing in more talent for sure.

Only draft them 1st if you can get a Claiborne or Blackmon. If not available then shoot for one of our other many needs hope for guys like Hogan and Gettis to improve.

don’t forget my guy, Kendall Wright. Look at my comparison of Wright and Blackmon below.

G Rec. RecYrds Avg. TD Rec./G Yards/G

Justin Blackmon Okla St JR WR 12 113 1336 11.82 15 9.4 111.3

Kendall Wright Baylor SR WR 12 101 1572 15.56 13 8.4 131.0

Although I live in Big 12 country, I haven’t seen every game, but I can imagine that these two receivers faced many of the same cornerbacks and coverages.

If we’re going to pick a WR….then we have to take Blackmon or Jeffrey. Taking anyone else is wasting a pick.

Unless Jamie hooks me up of course.

I was thinking more knife to the heart.

Despite what my sn says, I’m not all that optimistic about our current crop of DT talent. While there are some definite depth guys to keep on (Neblett stands out as one), and McClain seemed to make good progress throughout the season, I don’t think that a year worth of experience and Ron Edwards potentially coming back is going to solve our issues on the interior. We could have a backfield that consisted of Primetime Deion, Revis, Gamble, Ronnie Lott and Darren Sharper, but they would still get beat without any ability to generate push up the middle on the line and force QBs to make a play, rather than being able to sit back all afternoon with a clean pocket. We need some stud DT talent, and I don’t feel like its on the roster right now; my dream? We end 7-9, putting us in a good position to trade down a little bit (lower asking price for teams who want to move up a couple of spots), and we pick up someone like Alamedu and a CB prospect (admittedly, I’m not up to snuff on who’s who in the CB prospect pool) who closely resembles Gamble’s physical skills (preferably someone who, like Gamble did coming out of college, has some return ability as well).

The earlier the pick, the more likely the player is to be great… So I’d prefer to address starter needs here and depth needs later.

I think we all agree, coming out of the draft, Hogan had starter “potential”. That still stands. However who “potentially” is our #1 WR, starting OT’s and DT’s 2-3 years from now? The depths there, but not the starters.

BAMF has singled out his stellar play and says he definitely has a role going forward.

Every year we slowly dismiss why we don’t need a DT.

Yea, he’s got an atmospheric ceiling physically, but he just doesn’t produce when you need him to; hell, he basically got taken out of the game against Louisville, and he was largely getting matched up with some guys who were just getting in their first minutes as starters on that line (at least according to the Louisville fans I was watching the game with lol). Call me unimpressed with Coples.

Plenty of momentum to come out strong next season, plus the best OLBs in the draft project about there anyway. I love Jordan Senn, but we probably shouldn’t put all of our eggs in that basket, nor can we be very optomistic about Davis (sigh).

Sheesh… I can’t agree with that, and I have watched him play for years. He is a physical specimen, but there are certainly risks.

I hope his pro path doesn’t follow that of fellow mountaineer Dexter Jackson. Gruden fell in love with his pure speed and took him early in the 2nd round. Truthfully, D-Jax was a great speedster, but that is how he got through college… out running everyone. Not a good route runner nor did he possess great hands.

While I think Quick is much more of a complete package, I hope he goes later and a team can be patient with him.

Damn you Tater….now i actually want to draft him!

small WR can go against CB’s who are average 5’10-6’0…CB at 5’8 has a VERY difficult time guarding WR’s who avg 6’1-6’6. Plus Steve Smith is a one man army.

We finish 7-9! Panthers Winning out!

I haven’t been keeping up with all the prospects like I usually do this year, but damn.

plus a more healthy tackle.

I’m pushing for trading the pick so we can fill multiple needs.

they aren’t even part of the team anymore.

Maybe the Bears would give it back to us if we gave them Jimmeh.

King of Queens never missed a beat. I don’t know what’s been going on with him lately.

Id much rather take a more impacting player preferably on defense

1. Colts (1-15), #2 Rams (2-14), #3 Vikings (3-13), #4 Browns (4-12), #5 Buccaneers (4-12), #6 Jaguars (5-11), #7 Dolphins (5-11), #8 Bills (5-11), #9 Redskins (6-10), #10 PANTHERS (6-10).

I also believe that the Browns will swap picks with the Redskins. This would allow the Skins to get the QB they want and the Browns will get extra picks while still getting Trent Richardson (the RB they covet). Browns and Skins have consistantly made trades in recent years and this makes too much sense for both sides for it not to happen.
