4 round mock

I'm too lazy to do a 7 round mock so here's a shorter one
1.Darqueze Dennard CB Michigan State or Justin Gilbert CB Oklahoma State
2.Austin Seferian-Jenkins TE Washington or Troy Niklas TE Notre Dame
3.Deone Bucannon S Washington State or Mike Sam OLB Missouri
4.Donte Moncrief WR Ole Miss or Davante Adams WR Fresno State

 

a big wr is fine, but not just in height. what makes boldin so good and a few others is their strength too. I do like moncrief as far as strength goes, even without the 6-5 height. I've seen him more around the 3rd though. which I think would be a steal. I also like coleman around that round.

I really don't understand two wr picks last year if we are going right back to get one this year. those picks could have been better served at other positions, if we aren't going to give them a chance to see what they can do. a bit of a head scratcher to me. were these just depth picks? bad move if they were as far as I'm concerned.

I also still like bailey as a safety too. bucannon could be effective though. it will take several to equal what troy and clark have done here. we should get at least 12 guys on defense to offset guys like that. LOL maybe the league will give us that exemption?

I do think saferian- Jenkins fits us better than amaro or ebron. he is the better blocker. if he's to take over for heath eventually he will have to be very good at it.

 

I agree NB. Wheaton seems to be best suited for the slot, so we would need a guy that fits the bill for a #2. Honestly I like Matthews, Moncreif, and Robinson the best for an all around #2 (at least one of these guys should be there at our pick in round 2), but Evans would be tough to pass on if he is there at 15.

 

I kind of agree and have been saying this. I have a feeling they wait on a WR. if one of these guys at the top had a better all around game and a little better speed, we would look much harder. coleman, Washington, Bryant, janis have some size and speed combo, but are just not as polished, whether it was because of where they played, qb'ing, coaching or was second fiddle to say Sammy watkins.

with wheaton and if and that's a biggy, if cotchery could be re-signed, I think it could buy us a little more time to bring one of these guys along in the mix a little more slowly and end up with a better product. you just can't teach speed, and this group brings a lot more of that then the first group being looked at as #1's that are in our range.

their numbers would be a little better if they had better qb'ing and teams around them too. this is where the scouting of guys like these 4 will come into play. route running, hands, brains, blocking and upside. ben is funny about his receivers. it takes him time to trust guys. he and AB have it. he and cotchery have it. he and heath have it. I'm not sure he ever felt that with wheaton yet. he would start getting that with sanders just about the time sanders would get hurt. it took him a little time to get it with AB too. protect ben and he can make, guys better receivers.

 

with heath and spaeth still here, it may give us more time to bring a guy like ebron along as a blocker. again though at 15, do we want a project? that's where I have a hard time with it. I see him as more of a give and take in our offense.

he's a plus as a receiver, but will that take away our plus that is bell when he's on the field? amaro the same way. is saferian-Jenkins being the better blocker, enough of a receiver to not make it a give or take scenario?

 

That draft would be absolutely insane.

Moncrief will likely be in the first round discussion, late first but i would LOVE to get him in the second. I think Gilbert is the best fit and most versatile of the CBs, Not sure dennard would be a good fit for this defense as it stands now.

The thing is we need to hope wheaton can turn it around. He was BAD in his limited playing time last season. He was supposed to be able to fill the role that Washington and Wallace played their rookie year, nothing too complicated but i hoped he would have shown something

Brown was best suited for the slot too and he showed he can do things elsewhere. I would like to see Wheaton worked in on the slot at first definitely, but i hope his ceiling is higher than that.

 

trade down in the first : matthews wr
up in the second : prior fs
3rd cp : pourifoy cb
4 rd : justin ellis nt


then

5 rd james hurts ot
5rdcp max bullogh ilb
6rd prince shembo olb
7rd crockett gilmore te

 

ah, no you were not.

 

maybe i'll bring you guys over to the dark side by draft time.:darkness:our new o-line coach needs toys.

 

I am of the opinion right now that we are probably going "mostly" defense in this draft. If we take a WR it better be someone who can come in and play right away, otherwise I don't see the point.

I like the first 2 picks in this mock especially. Truly, I think we might have 2 of the best players at their positions in this draft. I love Seferian-Jenkins and honestly think he is better than any other TE on the list and that included Ebron.

I don't like the safety pick. It isn't because I don't think we need a safety, it is due to him being a SS not a FS. Shamarko will never be a center field safety...that is who we now need. I think I would rather have Terrence Brooks for the FS spot and I think you can get him in round 4 or 5.
