CrimsonCowboy's 2014 NFL Mock Draft

[CrimsonCowboy]

Those of you who were on the old site know that I did a NFL mock draft. So, why not do it over here too? These mocks are based on the prospect rankings from CBS Sports/NFL Draft Scout.

[Krgrecw]

Why do you think Tajh Boyd will be a fifth rounder? Behind mettenberger and McCarron?

[Carp]

The Jags aren't letting Clowney get past them, no matter what QB is available. Also, don't see the Titans taking a DE with the 1st pick. If Mosely is there, I have faith we'll be taking him. And probably go Tiny Richardson round 2 if he's there since we need a LT in bad way.

[yeezus]

Im surprised you have Clinton-Dix so low. I'd like him in the 1st for the boys.

Odds are the Rams take Clowney if they can't trade out as FIsher is usually a BPA type of guy. BUt to me the Jags have to take a QB. Even if Bortles or Carr or whoever bust out them and the Browns must take a QB because their teams QB play has been epically bad for a long time. And it's why they consistently pick in the top 10. If they don't their fans have the right to leave them.

[Oklahomahawk]

@CC, what no TE???

[CrimsonCowboy]

Why do you think Tajh Boyd will be a fifth rounder? Behind mettenberger and McCarron?

That's how the rankings have him at this time. Every mock I've seen has had him around that area. He's going to have a big chance to improve that next week. He's the highest profile QB participating in the Senior Bowl. A good week will do him wonders.

The Jags aren't letting Clowney get past them, no matter what QB is available.

Don't know about that. Jacksonville needs a franchise QB in the worst way.

Also, don't see the Titans taking a DE with the 1st pick. If Mosely is there, I have faith we'll be taking him.

Good chance the Titans do take Mosley. I almost put him there.

Im surprised you have Clinton-Dix so low. I'd like him in the 1st for the boys.

His ranking was lower than I thought it would be. Part of that is perhaps because he did have knee surgery after the Auburn game. I think he will be going back up. After watching him at Alabama, he's going to be a good one.


@CC, what no TE???

If Jerry drafts a TE anywhere in the draft, he needs to be put in a straight jacket.

[cajunrevenge]

I am curious why you have the saints taking a guard in the first round.

[NinersSBChamps]

I like Beckham at 30 for the 49ers. We have a glaring need to get a receiver who can stretch the field and Beckham can do just that. He also has value as a return man. I also like the Bucannon pick at 56. Why a DT instead of a CB at 61 though?

[Oklahomahawk]

True, but you could/should have said that last year too and we all know what happened then. v:facepalm:

[Carp]

From what I have read and what my buddy the jags fan says, the Jags aren't crazy about any of the 1st round QB's except Bridgewater (cause he's from that area). They are in love with Clowney, however. Yes they need a QB in the worst way. But from what I see, unless Bridgwater is there, they don't want to make a mistake again with an early pick on a QB.

That was a different staff. Of course I don' thin the odds are that Clowney will be there since I think the Rams will take him as the BPA or trade out to a team who wants him or the Texans take him and they trade out to a team who wants Bridgewater. I'll be shocked if the Rams stay at 2.

[sturg33]

Any chance Watkins falls to Det at 10? I can see Oakland taking a QB

[zitothebrave]

I don't think Oakland uses the 5 on Carr, maybe if Manziel or Bortles falls to them they may consider it but I don't think they'll take a QB.

That said, I think the Lions take a WR, Marquis Lee being probably the leading candidate.

[sturg33]

I hate having the 10th pick… Only Watkins is really deserving, but Lee, Gilbert, or Denard won't make it to round 2.

[CrimsonCowboy]

I am curious why you have the saints taking a guard in the first round.

Based on my draft board, Richardson would fill a need on the O-Line while getting a defensive player that the Saints need was going to be a reach. New Orleans will have to do something about the O-Line, because Brees got more pressure than I ever saw him get with the Saints. At some point in the first three rounds, O-Line has to be addressed.

Why a DT instead of a CB at 61 though?

Best player available at that time for the 49ers. I had a tough time picking that one, I must admit.

True, but you could/should have said that last year too and we all know what happened then

Very valid point

Any chance Watkins falls to Det at 10?

Very much doubt it

I can see Oakland taking a QB

They absolutely could.

[CrimsonCowboy]

Keep in mind, this is going to change a lot between now and draft time. By the time it's all said and done, this will be a lot different. There will be guys eventually drafted in the first round that may not be in the top 100 prospects right now. The changes will start next week for the Senior Bowl.

[Bj1133]

No reason for the Bears not to focus on defense with this draft - would love to see them trade up to get Clowney, but they don't have the multiple picks to do so and I'm always leery about dealing future picks (look at the Redskins this year)

[NinersSBChamps]

What are your thoughts on the draft being held in May? I don't like it because the tradition at the end of April was something I always looked forward to.

[CrimsonCowboy]

Agree for the same reasons. Don't like it

[zitothebrave]

Just musing here suppose Watkins falls to 6, I'd be all for the Falcons taking him and making Roddy or Harry available. They could possibly get a second round pick with one of them, and how many chances can you have to get 2 stud young wide receivers? Really would be tempting. That said I think the Raiders or Browns take him, but if he falls I may want th eFalcons to take him unless I'm wowed by Barr or Clowney falls.

[CrimsonCowboy]

QB prospect to watch is Jimmy Garappolo out of Eastern Illinois. He played very well in the East/West Shrine Game today and will also now participate in the Senior Bowl. Will be a name to watch for during the next week. See if he can back up his good play against better players in the Senior Bowl.

Also, just as I thought, HaHa Clinton-Dix has gone back up in the player rankings. Look for a jump for him in the next mock I will make, likely late Wednesday night.

[CrimsonCowboy]

Thinking about a good shakeup in the new version I'll make tomorrow night.

[50PoundHead]

I'm a Packer fan and I sure hope their actual draft doesn't look like yours. I highly doubt they will take a WR and an OT in the 3rd. Way too many needs on the defensive side of the ball that need to be addressed unless Thompson goes the FA route to fill those slots (which is iffy).

[Tapate50]

http://www.draftcountdown.com/sub/Mock-Draft-A.php

Has Bridgewater at 1, Matthews at 2, Clowney at 3, Bortles(Manziel possibly) at 4, Watkins at 5, and Falcons getting Robinson at 6.

Be careful there. Clinton Dix might be the best safety, but safeties have a tendency to not be drafted as highly unless they are an all world prospect. Vaccaro was a great prospect at the position last year that could cover like a CB.

[Tapate50]

Im not sure the Falcons pass up a elite LT prospect to pick a guy that doesn't play with his hand in the dirt, but hey they could mix in a lot of 3-4 next year with some select draft picks.

I also wouldn't project Watkins to the Browns, as WR is about the only place they are flush.

I would also think Mack goes before Mosely unless some team has a void at MLB.

[zitothebrave]

Most are basing the projections off of the ability of Barr to go into a down lineman role and be a pass rush specialist like a Trent Cole or Dwight Freeney type who doesn't overly concern themselves with the run. I don't really have a place yet on Barr vs Matthews. Will wait til combine/prodays on them. Lots of people criticize Matthews's size, wuold like to see how he shakes out in the hand/arm side.

[CrimsonCowboy]

Senior Bowl is now in the books. Next big draft event is the combines coming next month. Here are some, IMO, winners and losers this week:

Winners:
Dee Ford (Auburn OLB): Had great practices all week and continued that into the game. Had a couple sacks and at least a couple other QB hurries. He had been likely a third round pick, but he may have elevated himself to the second round. If he continues his good work the next couple months, a first round selection is not out of the question.

Aaron Donald (Pittsburgh DT): Had a strong week during practices. Was constantly one of the best D-Linemen in Mobile. Had a rather good game today as well. Has put himself into discussions for the first round.

Derek Carr (Fresno State QB): Was the best QB all week in Mobile. Did nothing to damage his stock. Threw for a TD in the game. Kept himself in the first round projections.

Kevin Norwood (Alabama WR): Question about him is his speed, but he had a great week. Caught almost everything thrown to him. Was South team MOP. May have elevated his stock a round or two perhaps.

Losers:
North Quarterbacks: All three didn't help themselves much at all. Logan Thomas and Stephen Morris had erratic throws all week and in the game. Tajh Boyd was thought to be the best QB in Mobile, but he was inconsistent. Had an interception on an underthrown pass in the game. None of them helped their stock.

Seantrel Henderson (Miami OT): I remember he was a highly thought of prospect coming out of high school. He never lived up to that promise in Miami. Had a chance to answer questions and instead, probably caused more to be asked about him. Was constantly beaten in practices and that continued into the game. His size is attractive to NFL teams, but unless he picks it up in the combines, he may go undrafted.

[Carp]

Titans aren't taking a center. We took Brian Schewnke last yr and he did pretty well this yr before getting hurt.

If we take any OL early, it will be a LT. Tiny Richardson in the 2nd is a pretty good possibility.

I like the Sankey pick for the Falcons, and would be pretty dissappointed with taking a TE in the top of the 2nd. We need OLinemen in the worst way but FA may fix some of that.

[zitothebrave]

At the least I'll be upset if the Falcons don't use their first 2 picks on their front seven. Unless someone falls that you can't pass up on. Like say Clowney and Matthews go 1-2 then you have a QB rush and Watkins is there at 6. I'd take him over Barr/Mack. Not that the Falcons have a need at WR, just can't pass up on a legit top 5 talent at a position you can play him. Then you dangle Douglas for a 2nd or 3rd. Or see fi anyone would trade a late 1 for Roddy though I'd be less inclined to make that move since with 2 very verticle receivers Roddy would basically be the man in the middle of the field with no safeties to worry about.

Always take the BPA that's the most important thing. Then if there's not a huge difference between bPA and a need you go to the need. But I don't think that Jace is the BPA at that second round pick so I hope the Falcons don't go that route.

[Heyward]

The previous two were better.

FS isnt a big need, and way too many other needs (DE, CB, ILB/WR)

[zitothebrave]

I pray clowney falls to Atlanta at 6, but I think St. Louis takes him or someone trades up to 2 (Bucs?) to take him. Of course can't rule out the Texans drafting him.

I think more than any year the combine may settle picks. I don't think anyone but Clowney will sit out most drills. Matthews has questions, all the QBs have questions, guys like Mack and Barr are fighting for top 10 picks.

I think you got the top 3 QBs who'll be taken right. Bortles, Manziel, and Bridgewater will be on all of the first 5 teams (but the Rams's) board for consideration.

I do think though the Browns basically have to draft a QB. Weeden is a total and utter failure, They have to take a QB, if tthey don't they'll bein trouble Though maybe they trade down with someone who really wants Matthews/Clowney and they think they can get Carr.

I just don't see Cleveland taking a WR but maybe thats just me. The Jags, Texans, and Oak are almost guaranteed to take a qb first. I could see the Rams taking Matthews because Long won't be ready for the start of camp. They are also subject to losing Roger Saffold (RT) in FA. So feasibly, they could plug in Matthews, with an idea of moving him to LT when Long gets "not worth his contract" in 2 years or so.

[zitothebrave]

I don't think Cleveland does either unless they trade Gordon.

Cleveland's all time passing leader is Brian Sipe, under 60% completion, under 6 NY/A and almost even in TDs and INTs. 1 time probowler. His 10 year career netted an 88 AV, something QBs today get in about 8 or less. So basically their best QB of all time is kind of like the Eli Manning without the superbowls of today.

After the last decade and a half of Tim Couch, Brady Quinn, Kelly Holcomb, Derek Anderson, Colt McCoy, Brandon Weeden, and Jason Campbell, they owe their fans gambles on QBs. They won't win with Jason Campbell and their's no bet they'll be picking number 1 next year for Mariota or that he's better than Bortles/Bridgewater/Manziel.

Cleveland may not take a QB, but they'd be dumb not to. Oakland at 5 with all those other QBs off the board is the most likely to take Watkins, though, never know, Rams may decide to be crazy and really load up for Bradford. Rams are wild cards because they don't really have needs for any of the top draft prospects. They're strong at OT and DE, of course they can improve there but it's not like they're the Falcons with glaring holes there. THey just drafted Austin last year high as a WR but having a companion isn't really wrong, and they seem sold on Bradford. Rams are very likely to trade out. My guess as to their trade route? Either the Bucs trade up to 2 because they really want Clowney, or one of the Browns or Raiders really want a QB and want to lock it in. Rams I'm guessing take lower value to only move down 2-3 picks. (1 and next years 2 or something like that) or maybe some team Ricky Williams them. I don't think they sit at 2 though. b

[50PoundHead]

As a Packer fan, I hope you're wrong about their first round pick in your latest draft. Benjamin is a really nice player, but the Packers' defense is very mediocre, mostly due to lack of speed. I hope you've overrated your own C.J. Moseley, because he'd be my dream pick for them. If the draft unfolds the way you have outlined, I'd almost hope that they'd trade down a few slots and take Pryor, Van Noy, or Shazier and bank a couple of extra picks for other needs on the d-side of the ball and a TE. I don't know if Shazier is big enough to play LB in a 3-4, but he is surely fast enough.

Oak isnt a lock.

They could go a number of players.

Watkins, Clowney/Barr, OL, etc.

Hou may be the only lock provided Manziel/Teddy/Bortles dont totally fail.

Cle a decent chance too.

Outside of that, no one knows.

[Bj1133]

Bears need help on D and Mosley is very talented, but I'll be surprised if they go LB with their first pick. D Line and Secondary are more pressing needs.

[zitothebrave]

I reallly hope if CLowney and Matthews are off the board Atlanta trades out, or takes Watkins. I'm not excited about Robinson. I don't know if he can handle pass blocking in the NFL. He's a big man, but I'm concerned about his speed. Combine will likely certify my 3rd and 4th choice.

[cajunrevenge]

So dead set on giving the Saints offensive line in the first arent we. I am not against it but the Saints have two open spots Center and Right Tackle. Terron Armstead really solidified the LT spot late in the season. His grade by PFF against the Seahawks was the highest of any LT vs them outside of Jake Long. Cyrus doesnt really strike me as a good fit for RT.

Also is Christian Jones in there somewhere that I missed? Or do you not think he is worth a pick in the top 4 rounds?

[Heyward]

I'd like Hageman, but dont think its a huge need, good value if he somehow slipped there.

Rest of the draft would be dope.

[Heyward]

I'd like that but a lot of guys they could go if it fell like that.

Pairing Amaro or Jenkins with JT is very intriguing, not that i see it happening.

[zitothebrave]

Robinson had a killer combine, wonder if some teams will consider him over Matthews higher up in the draft. Would be great for the Falcons. Robinson is a freak physically but he's so raw. He could be a monster, but for the Falcons needs immediately Matthews is a far better prospect for him as he's much more polished.

Robinson has the physical tools to be the best LT in the NFL, Matthews is a safer pick.

I take Robinson and don't think twice. He immediately proves our rushing offense, and would likely be better agains the bull rush than Baker.

The good news is that we have lots of qb needy teams ahead of us. A good player will be there without a doubt.

[zitothebrave]

Robinson is physical and it's an improvement over umm whoever we have at RT. My dream is still Clowney falling to number 6. No one aside from Clowney is a perfect fit for Atlanta.

[CrimsonCowboy]

Five teams who could trade up:
Atlanta Falcons: I get the feeling that the Falcons would love to trade up to get Jadeveon Clowney. They may have to go all the way to the top of the draft to get him. The Falcons have made such moves before. In the past, they have made big draft deals to get Michael Vick and Julio Jones.
Cleveland Browns: Part of the reason is they have several picks in the first four rounds (which makes it a royal pain to pick for them in my mocks). They'll get a quarterback at some point. Question is which one could Cleveland seek if they move up.
Minnesota Vikings: The Vikings showed they can be an aggressive team on draft day in making deals. It helped them get three first rounders in 2013. They need a franchise QB and I would not be surprised if they again showed aggressiveness in their dealings to get one.
San Francisco 49ers: The Niners moved up in last year's draft to nab Eric Reid. With a couple extra picks in the first three rounds and needs at WR, and DB, I think they can afford to use one of those to fill at least one of them.
New York Jets: One thing a young QB like Geno Smith needs to help his development is a dependable, top notch WR. The Jets really don't have one. They probably won't be able to get high enough for Sammy Watkins, but a deal can assure them perhaps a choice of Mike Evans or Marquise Lee.

Five Team Who Could Trade Down:
Houston Texans: It's always a chance for the team with the #1 pick to trade it. It seems to me to be more likely this year. At this point, there is no clear cut choice to be the #1 pick in the draft. That alone makes the possibility of a trade higher. As the day of the draft gets nearer, expect the Texans to be fielding a lot of calls.
St. Louis Rams: This is the last year they get the Redskins 1st rounder for the RG3 trade. While getting the #2 spot is nice, they have plenty of needs to fill, so dangling that selection to any team to get an extra player is quite possibly a better option.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers: If Sammy Watkins slips to them, the chances of them trading down from #7 is not near as high. With no 3rd round selection and plenty of offensive needs, good chance the Bucs offer up the selection.
Miami Dolphins: For a team that barely missed the playoffs, Miami has a lot of needs. They need to address offensive line and defensive backs, possibly needing to draft two players for both spots. They also need DT help. Need a deal for an extra pick or two to make that happen.
Dallas Cowboys: No brainer here, because the Cowboys hardly ever stay put. Sometimes against their better judgment (see last year). The Cowboys have needs at DT, DE, LB, S, OG. Then at QB, Tony Romo is coming off back surgery at age 34 and now there is talk Kyle Orton may not play this coming season. Trading down to get an extra pick or two is a likelihood. Will Jerry Jones be smart about it is a whole other question entirely.................

[zitothebrave]

If that's the way the first round shakes out. I hope the Falcons take Watkins or trade out with the Lions. Or maybe the Jets go into an insane buy to get Watkins. Like say their 1,2, bucs 3, and next years 2 for the 6 pick

Remember that old addage "the best trade is the one you DON'T make"?? I know you guys want Clowney but I think you'll thank your lucky stars in 2 or 3 years if you don't get him. Just my opinion though.

[Heyward]

Falcons have WAY too many holes to trade up.

Would be incredibly dumb.

[CrimsonCowboy]

Falcons have WAY too many holes to trade up.

Would be incredibly dumb.

I wouldn't if I was them, I agree. They're just a possibility I identified. Besides, if they want Clowney, he could still fall to them without a deal if Houston trades out of the #1 spot. However, and this is reflected in my mocks, I'm getting the feeling the Texans are zeroing in on Clowney and waiting until the second or third round to draft a quarterback.

[zitothebrave]

I hope the Falcons dont' trade up, unless say the Rams let them move up to 2 for their 1 and 3 and Clowney is on the board.

That's really about it.

I don't want to lose the 2.

That said many mocks have Watkins falling out of the top 5. If that happens I hope the Falcons take him (unless Clowney is there) or they get the Lions 1 and 2 and maybe 1 more.

[yeezus]

I would be ecstatic if the Cowboys' draft ends up that way in your mock. Donald is a monster.

[Tapate50]

However, and this is reflected in my mocks, I'm getting the feeling the Texans are zeroing in on Clowney and waiting until the second or third round to draft a quarterback.

The Texans are built to win right away, something that bringing in a less talented QB than say Bortles or Bridgewater significantly reduces their chances of doing.

Third round Qbs will be Aaron Murray, Jimmy Garrapolo type mold. I just don't see them taking that much of a percieved talent hit while they watched Matt Shaub Pick 6 his way off the roster.

BO'B is a big QB guy as well. He believes in a big strong guy that is the heart of the team. I just think Bortles lines up almost too well for them.

[zitothebrave]

I'm torn with Houston honestly. I think for them they may be better off getting CLowney and signing McCown because you have to wonder how much longer for Andre and Foster, what if next year is their last year of high productivity?

[zitothebrave]

I'll do what I call my ideal first 4 rounds with the Falcons with some realism (aka not ging with Clowney since odds of him falling are slim)

1. Robinson
2. Su'a-Filo
3. Taylor Hart
4. Daniel McCullers.

That's under the assumption that we sign Michael Johnson which I think is very likely. I was tempted to take a safety since we're going to cut DeCoud but I think we may opt to find someone via FA since there are some quality safeties out there who're cheap. I'd keep Babs, maybe Peters as well depending on Price for him.

2014 Falcons

QB - Ryan
HB - Jackson
FB - DiMarco
TE - Toilolo
WR - White
WR - Jones
LT - Robinson
LG - Blalock
C - Konz/Hawley (let them battle, I'm hoping adding Tice will improve one of them)
RG - Su'a-Filo
RT - Baker

LDE - Biermann/Osi rotation
DT - Babs
DT - Hart/McCullers rotation. If Peters is in the mix it would be an even heavier rotation. Aside from obvious passing downs (where I'd put Biermann at DT anyway) I'd pair a rookie with a Vet so Babs with McCuller and Hart with Peters. Possibly throwing Peters and McCullers in there for big run stopping downs.
RDE - Johnson
WLB - Bartu
MLB - Worrilow
SLB - Spoon
LCB - Alford
FS - Delmas
SS - Moore
RCB - Trufant

Overall that's a strong team. Depth is still a concern but it will be improved and if the only name FA we sign are Johnson, Babs, and Delmas we should have plenty of space to add some quality depth.

Other positions the Falcons may take but I hope they don't include RB and TE. While I think having a great TE is awesome as it totally opens up the playbook. I'm fine with using more 3 WR sets. I think the Falcons can morph themselves into a spread offense successfully with their weapons.

Bierman would get man handled inside. You gotta pass what yer puffin' dude

[zitothebrave]

Bierman would get man handled inside. You gotta pass what yer puffin' dude

He would be used as a passing down decoy. Main job being to fire a gap and take up the attention of the Center and guard leaving one on one with Babs and if they're not holding anyone back one on one with Johnson and Osi.

Someone who's fast off the line can be a real disruption on the inside. Biermann would get blown up and problaby never make a sack. But he would be used in a similar way that fatties stop the run. Occupy a gap and force 2 people ot take care of you.

Jadeveon Clowney - DL - Gamecocks


Sports Talk 790's Lance Zierlein believes it looks more likely that the Texans will select a QB later in the draft rather than with the No. 1 pick.

Zierlein notes this would mean the Texans go with the best player (or grade) available, which would likely be Jadeveon Clowney. "Traits usually win out," Zierlein added. The possible second day quarterbacks include Fresno State's Derek Carr (outside shot), LSU's Zach Mettenberger, Alabama's AJ McCarron and Eastern Illinois' Jimmy Garoppolo.

[zitothebrave]

Well, Texans taking Clowney is probably the best long term solution for the Falcons. Hopefully they'll trade out of the 6 spot if Watkins falls. I'm sure the Lions would offer at least their 1 and 2 for that then at 10 the Falcons can take Mack, Lewan or Donald. And then in the second they could add say Marcus Martin, Troy Niklas, Brandon Thomas, etc. with te Lions pick.

[cajunrevenge]

If I was any of those QB needy teams I would try and trade down and get more picks next year. Mariota, Winston and Hundley are all better prospects than any qb in this class. I think Bridgewater and Carr will be halfway decent starters that arent totals busts. Bortles is probably who I would pick if you put a gun to my head but I still dont think he develops into a good qb. Manziel is going to bust like crazy. Especially if he goes to a team without much talent on offense.

Pittsburgh already called dibs on Winston.

He fits the bill with how they like their quarterbacks.

[zitothebrave]

I think predicting success with Draft prospects is really tough. You can have great prospects who tank, or guys who come from nowhere.

The year Ryan and Flacco were drafted no one expected anything from that draft. 2012 we knew that RG3 and Luck were stud talents. But I don't think anyone predicted 2 probowl QBs to be taken in the 3rd round. 2008 was supposed to a terribly weak QB draft. One of the few NFL drafts not to have a QB go top 2. In the end 2 current NFL starters came out of it in Ryan and Flacco, and you had Chad Henne who should start on a bad team (like Jacksonville)

The Houston Chronicle's John McClain reports the Texans are "seriously considering" each of Teddy Bridgewater, Blake Bortles and Johnny Manziel with the No. 1 pick.
Per McClain, there's a "long way to go in the process." McClain — who is the most plugged-in Texans reporter — has been adamant that the team will take a signal caller at No. 1, though there's been recent chatter they could select South Carolina DE Jadeveon Clowney. Bortles appears to be the favorite at this exact moment, but there's plenty of time for that to change.

This is from rotoworld a little while ago.

[Heyward]

Zeets, why do you think its a good chance they sign MJ?

Because he's from Atl.

[zitothebrave]

Partially that, mainly because he's the best DE on the market JMO and unless Cincy keeps him I don't see anyone outbidding the Falcons.

Cincy wont keep him, Hunt will probably replace him.

How much cap does Atl have?

[zitothebrave]

Unless Tony doesn't retire they'll have like 30 million or so though that doesn't include the Perry deal or rookies so really less than that.

[Heyward]

I've seen Min was linked to him.

Because of Zimmer.

Everson Griffen is a good value signing, primed to breakout.

Ridiculousally deep FA class.

[CrimsonCowboy]

The Jaguars have resigned Chad Henne to a two year contract and now may not take a QB in the first round.

[cajunrevenge]

Pittsburgh already called dibs on Winston.

He fits the bill with how they like their quarterbacks.

I dont think it works that way.

Zito if I remember correctly you are a Rutgers fan?

Zito if I remember correctly you are a Rutgers fan?

Fan no. But I lived in new Brunswick for 3 years so I followed them a lot.

[NinersSBChamps]

What do you have on Brandon Coleman? He looks pretty raw, but has awesome size and strength.

[Tapate50]

I'd love to trade back a spot or 4 and grab Donald\Lewan at 10 or so.

[zitothebrave]

I see no way the Falcons take Donald over Mack. Unless like Tapate said they trade down.

[CrimsonCowboy]

Probably this weekend, I'll be doing an update to this version. A "9B" if you will. Not real happy with this one and also all the free agent and changes in draft position. Feel doing one before I do my usual late Wednesday night updates is better. Just don't like how I did this one.

[Tapate50]

I see no way the Falcons take Donald over Mack. Unless like Tapate said they trade down.

I also don't see how they take the BC RB if a guy like Jerrick McKinnon (RB- Shane Vereen mold) is still on the board in round 5. He has things going for him you just cannot teach.

[cajunrevenge]

Maybe my joke went over your head?

Yes it did. In fact I still don't get the joke.

[TURBO]

Yes it did. In fact I still don't get the joke.

Big Ben=Was accused sexual assault twice i think
Winston=Was accused of sexual assault

[Heyward]

If it fell like that, i'd prefer Matthews, Ford, or Shazier.

[Tapate50]

Still early but I'd wager thats how the first 6 picks go. Would be a shock if Mack fell that far though. Consensus top 3 talent in the draft and scheme versatile.

[zitothebrave]

I dunno. Falcons may elect to get mack at 6 even with Matthews on board. They don't have a 3/4 rush end and can get an ot in the second.

I think thats who we are choosing between come draft day IMO.

I'd love Dee Ford in the 2nd, but pass rush ability like his doesn't tumble much. RT could be had early in the 2nd for sure (Clemson OL Thomas).

[50PoundHead]

CC, I'm a Packers' guy and I'd love Moseley, but there are rumors going around about possible knee issues. Any light you can shed on that from a Crimson Tide vantage point?

Worst mock I've read keeps having the Falcons trade up to 2 to get Clowney. If they weren't clearly switching to a 3-4 I'd believe it, but why move up to select a 4-3 DE after signing a 3-4 NT and 3-4 DE? I mean maybe they're just going with a fatty DL to shut the run down, but that wouldn't make sense.

[CrimsonCowboy]

CC, I'm a Packers' guy and I'd love Moseley, but there are rumors going around about possible knee issues. Any light you can shed on that from a Crimson Tide vantage point?

According to Mosley himself, his medical reports were positive. Here's an article: http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap2000000333286/article/alabamas-cj-mosley-says-medical-reports-were-positive

You hear a lot of rumors and such about top pro prospects. Seems to me a lot of it is on purpose by somebody to see if a certain player could fall to them. Not saying that's the case here, but it's possible. Only injury Mosley had at Alabama was when he dislocated his hip in the BCS Championship Game against LSU on a rather nasty tackle after he intercepted a pass. Other than that, nothing of note. Mosley is going to improve any defense he goes to. Great player on the field and an outstanding person off the field.

[50PoundHead]

Thanks for the insight CC. You're right on the rumor thing. People spread crap just to spread it at this time of year.

This is my favorite Packers' draft yet of all the drafts you've done. I'd crap my pants (with joy) if the draft turned out like this for them.

I mean maybe they're just going with a fatty DL to shut the run down, but that wouldn't make sense.

I honestly think we take Mack. I bet TD feels like he can get that starting RT in round 2 and Mack would fit just fine without trying to give up picks. If we were staying in a 4-3 I'd say we move up too. I think TD saw a way to let the draft come to him in FA by switching to a run stopping 3-4 and not sacrificing picks. Two signings and we could even move way back for Barr or back for Lewan etc... and take Ford later.

[50PoundHead]

CC, I know your blood runs crimson as opposed to most folks running simply red, but what's your read on Kouandijo? I got in a pretty heated online debate with a fellow Packer fan because I think the kid is overrated and he thinks he's a top ten pick. Looks like a future RT to me instead of the franchise LT some saw him as prior to the bowl game/combine. He looks like he lumbers a bit.

Based on his size, he should be a top ten. But, he did not play like it. His low moment was when the DE from Oklahoma kept blowing by him in the Sugar Bowl, putting constant pressure on A.J. McCarron because Kouandjio couldn't stop him. He probably could have benefited from another year at Alabama. Add to that, he didn't help himself at the combines and rumors of knee problems (which Dr. Andrews told NFL teams otherwise). Right now, I don't think he goes before late in the first round, more likely second. At this point, him being a RT is a very good possibility.

[Carp]

If the Titans had that draft I would be more than pleased. I'd rather take an OT/DE in the 2nd round but Tre Mason wouldn't be a horrible pick. He reminds me a lot of Ray Rice.

[Tapate50]

Like the draft for the Falcons. I wouldnt be shocked if they take Brandon Thompson OT Clemson in the 2nd over a SS, but I know Ward can cover pretty well too. If we snagged Leno late i'd be really pleased.

[Bj1133]

I really think the Bears go for HaHa or Pryor in the 1st round

[Heyward]

Not a fan of Yankey.

I'd prefer one of Fuller, Ford, or Matthews.

Hell, even Amaro or Jenkins would be intriguing.

[CrimsonCowboy]

Just watched Johnny Manziel's Pro Day. Didn't hurt his stock, that's for sure. Think he had a rather good day.

[Heyward]

Huge fan of Manziel, lot of teams will regret passing on him.

Depending where he goes.

[CrimsonCowboy]

Usually, you can't make too much of these pro days, but Manziel was real good. His last throw was a 60 yard pass to Mike Evans which was right on the money. He likely cemented himself as a top ten selection.

[Tapate50]

Fins get Knowshon on a 1 year deal.

Fins get Knowshon on a 1 year deal.

Interesting.
Anyone want to revisit the debate we had here about running backs?

[Heyward]

Fins get Knowshon on a 1 year deal.

Is this in the wrong section?

Yes, it is.

Good for him though.

I don't see the Falcons ignoring RT and instead going CB in the 2nd. They have their two starting CBs, and signed their nickel corner and Arenas.

[Carp]

Ewww... McCarron in rhe 4th would be turrible. I know people expect us to take a QB in the mid rounds, but I hope to God it isn't McCarron.

[zitothebrave]

I really hope Atlanta doesn't burn a pick in the first 2 days on a running back. That's where I'd use the comp pick to either take someone with the 4th and get a position of need at the comp or not. I'd much rather use that pick on Terrance Brooks as I don't think there's a big difference between Hill and Sims.

[Heyward]

Still early but I'd wager thats how the first 6 picks go. Would be a shock if Mack fell that far though. Consensus top 3 talent in the draft and scheme versatile.

What if all 4 of Mack/Clowney/Matthews/Robinson are all gone at 6.

Would you take Watkins :Alone:

[Tapate50]

What if all 4 of Mack/Clowney/Matthews/Robinson are all gone at 6.

Would you take Watkins :Alone:

No, but I bet you the Lions would be on the phone wanting to trade up to 6. We take Lewan\Martin, then OLB with our first 2nd rounder, then TE\FS with the other.

They have it bad for Watkins.

If that were the case, and we had ZERO trade out partners...hard to say what we would do. Clinton Dix or Ebron would be awful hard to pass up.

I'm convinced we plan to trade up for Watkins

[zitothebrave]

What if all 4 of Mack/Clowney/Matthews/Robinson are all gone at 6.

I would, simply because imagine how insane the Falcons WRs would be. Offense would be insane as long as they get on OT in the second.

[Tapate50]

Ok Matt Millen ... I'd like to see the Hawx defend that if we could give Matt 3 seconds.

[zitothebrave]

Ok Matt Millen ... I'd like to see the Hawx defend that if we could give Matt 3 seconds.

Well it's certainly a risky move, but by most accounts, Watkins is one of the 3 if not 2 best players in the draft. Most people agree, Clowney 1, then Watkins, then Mack. It we have a shot at any 3 of them at 6 you have to take it. Of course I think Mack is the only one we have a decent shot at getting down there, I'm pretty sure Chokeland or Cleveland will take Watkins. But most likely I think we get Matthews or Robinson.

[rico43]

Robinson or Mack would be a home run, Matthews would be a triple. If all are gone, you trade the pick. Watkins isn't needed, as good as he is.

[zitothebrave]

Watkins isn't really needed, but Roddy is old Roddy, Julio and Sammy would be killer short term. Then you have Julio and Sammy long term.

I would much rather have Robinson, Mack or Matthews, or especially Clowney, but if for some reason they all are gone I would absolutely take Sammy. And honestly I would consider him over Matthews too.

[NinersSBChamps]

I am so burnt out on the NFL this off season. Each season that passes it seems like I care that much less. Especially with the draft being so late this season.

This is happening across the NFL. NFL is waning in popularity slowly.

[NinersSBChamps]

Yeah, but at the end of the day nothing will change. It's still so popular that they league wont be hurt at all.

[Heyward]

Ok Matt Millen ... I'd like to see the Hawx defend that if we could give Matt 3 seconds.

Roddy is on an expiring deal, Julio off an injury.

Good depth at OT in the 2nd, a guy like Moses.

Not saying i'd do it but Watkins would be quite intriguing if those 4 are off the board and you cant move back.

[Carp]

I would be very pleased with that draft for the Titans.

[yeezus]

As someone who watches Ohio State, Shazier going in the 1st would be a huge mistake. Not saying it won't happen.

[zitothebrave]

Texans appear to be moving closer to selecting Clowney. Not good for falcons as that could put Mack off the board.

[Tapate50]

Savage the last pick in the 5th? Some team grabs him early 2nd. He has as much heat as any QB in the draft right now.

[Tapate50]

OBJ at 22 is a S T E A L. Thinking he goes 10-12 range. Some recent mocks have him 3rd off the board and in the top 10.

[Carp]

LINK?

I don't know what mocks you are referring to. I haven't seen any NFL or ESPN analyst rank Savage in the their top 5 QB's, much less view him a 2nd round pick. And I haven't seen anywhere where OBJ is remotely close to a top 10 pick, much less top 3.

yer welcome

[Tapate50]

Everyone is starting to believe Clowney is the first pick. That sucks for the Falcons.... probably means Mack will not fall to us.

With JC not working out for any more teams, the nfl thinks the Texans have informed JC that he will be their choice if they cannot trade out.

[Carp]

Really? Random sports guys quoted from Rotoworld is the best you got?

None of the recent (or old) mocks I've seen (probably 30-40 or more as this is all I do at work) from NFL, CBS, Scout or ESPN have OBJ going earlier than 15. Those links are literally the first time I've ever seen anyone have OBJ going that high. Most have him around 18-23 range, with a couple having him at 15 going to the Steelers. That includes the insider info from McShay, Kipper as well.

Schefter just said that today.

Not totally surprising if they arent sold on the QB's.

Browns/Rams wont take Mack imo.

Raiders or Jags would be his other potential target if Clowney goes 1.

Yeah momentum can be a real bugger sometimes.

[sturg33]

Still think the Lions trade up for Watkins if he falls out of top 3

[rico43]

Robinson or Matthews would be a 10-year starter in OL. Just glad the Falcons don't pick 7th.

[zitothebrave]

ALso apparently the Rams are leaning Mack or Watkins. Not going OL. May not even take Clowney.

[Heyward]

ALso apparently the Rams are leaning Mack or Watkins. Not going OL. May not even take Clowney.

Don't believe anything draft-related for teams right now, all a load of crap.

I can see Stl go any of Mack/Watkins/Robinson/Matthews assuming Clowney goes 1.

[zitothebrave]

Well St. Louis is the team who doesn't have a need at any of the top available talent spots. They just used a high pick on WR last year, they have Long and barksdale on the OL (and you usually don't draft a RT at number 2) and they have Long and QUinn on the DL. Chris Long is getting a bit long in the tooth, but he's still effective. And I think that's why they're leaning Mack not RObinson/Matthews. You don't know of course, but Mack and Watkins are superior prospects to RObinson and Matthews so on that reason alone, they should be the ones considered by the rams.

Of course the Rams really want to move down. Best case for them is Clowney falls out of 1 and teams try to move up to 2 to get him.

[Tapate50]

If I was stl, I pick Watkins. If you believe Bradford is your guy and it appears they do, give him the stud and find out. Austin won't play on the outside much, and Jared cook is dangerous as long as he isn't the focal point.

[zitothebrave]

I'd take Watkins too. But you know how Fisher loves defense. I think what St. Louis wants is for Jacksonville, Cleveland, or Oakland to move up to 2 to take Bortles or Clowney so they can add picks and still get Mack or Watkins. I think best case for St. Louis if Houston takes Bortles, the Falcons are willing to pay to move up to 2 for CLowney (and boy do I hope they don't) or the texans take CLowney, Cleveland or Oakland (more liekly Cleveland) want that 2 pick really bad so they can get Bortles.

Pittsburgh QB Tom Savage "has a very real shot of landing in the top of the second round," says NFL.com's Daniel Jeremiah.
"When you just look at the number of visits he's had and number of workouts he's had, that's hard data you can tell that there's buzz and some excitement building on him," said Jeremiah. Savage (6-foot-4, 228 pounds) threw for 2,958 yards with 21 touchdowns and nine interceptions in relative obscurity for Pitt last year. Scouts discovered a bazooka arm when breaking down tape, however, and Savage has taken on helium since the draft process began. "The arm strength is easy to notice. He's got a big arm and you see him make some drive throws you don't see other guys make," Jeremiah said. "When I watched him early in the year, he took so many sacks and I kind of worried about his ability to navigate in the pocket and get out of trouble."

[Heyward]

Schefter said today he thinks Clowney, Robinson, Mack, and Watkins will be the first 4 picks.

Leaving Matthews to fall, but sounds like he might not at this point. Better start lining up workouts with Ha Ha, Ebron, and Lewan. That would suck for the Falcons, but I saw a breakdown on Ha Ha on the falcoholic that was very very convincing.

[CrimsonCowboy]

To back up the things about Tom Savage, he has really shot up the draft boards. For example, on the CBS/NFL Draft Scout prospect rankings, he's now ranked #31. So needless to say, when I do this week's version, he will be MUCH higher.

He was invited to NY but declined the invite. Wise IMO

Yes it was. While he's been a fast rising prospect, he's far from a guaranteed first round pick.

Guy who is dropping right now is Bridgewater. Some have him down in the second round now.

[zitothebrave]

IfWardcan't play FS the Falcons would be dumb to take him. THey need a FS not a safetybecause Willy Mo is one of the best in the game.

[Tapate50]

FS is really the need. No starters on the roster at this point. Can't guarantee a post camp cut would even be there or useful. I would look at the Nebraska CB with the 6'2 size if we can't get a FS ready to play. Baptiste I think?

I think Dennard goes a bit lower and OBJ goes a tad higher, but I like that draft for ATL. I don't think we target TE this year either unless its a late developmental guy. Just too many needs.

[zitothebrave]

I could live wit that draft. Still not sure if Ward can play FS, if he can't, I think Tuitt is the guy. Seems like a pretty ideal 3-4 DE.

[Tapate50]

Not bad at all, don't hate it. Fills needs for Atl. OL went early so not minding the Ward pick . At that point he is a steal, covers very well but a tad small. Makes a lot of plays.

[yeezus]

Like the Cowboys draft.
I can say as someone who lives in Philly, there's no way Shazier is the Eagles' pick at #22. They are going S or WR no doubt.

[Tapate50]

Might be no mans land for a FS.

[yeezus]

Chances Barr falls to 16? Would love him in Dallas.

[Heyward]

IfWardcan't play FS the Falcons would be dumb to take him. THey need a FS not a safetybecause Willy Mo is one of the best in the game.

Ward can play FS.

Good ball-skills, can play inside at nickel as well, really underrated prospect.

[Heyward]

Chances Barr falls to 16? Would love him in Dallas.

For whatever reason, his stock is supposedly falling and i have no idea why.

He's an excellent player.

But if he was there, would be a no-brainer.

[Heyward]

I'd hate that mock for Den.

If they are gonna go DT, just take Dom Easley, woulda been a top 15 pick if he didnt hurt his knee. Or just take Moses and plug him in right away.

I'd go Moses, Easley, Gaines, Norwood and Exum.

And Yankey in the 5th?

[cajunrevenge]

Would love that saints draft to happen. Never heard of the 2 players taken in the 5th but the first 4 rounds are gold.

[CrimsonCowboy]

Chances Barr falls to 16? Would love him in Dallas.

Could happen. If Tennessee passes on him, the Cowboys could be the next in line that would be a good fit.

[zitothebrave]

Could happen. If Tennessee passes on him, the Cowboys could be the next in line that would be a good fit.

Seems like Lions are the popular pick for him. Barr to Dallas would be a steal for them. he's raw but should be a top 10 pick.

[CrimsonCowboy]

Five trades that could happen in the 1st round (my opinion only):

49ers/Buccaneers:
San Francisco is sitting at #30 and have big needs at DB. They also have several draft picks after the 1st. They have two in the second and three in the 3rd round, so they have the picks to make a big move. A big jump could net them Gilbert, Dennard, or Clinton-Dix. Tampa Bay has several needs and a trade down could help fill those. They would have to be intrigued at the notion of getting at least an additional second and third round selection.

Jets/Titans:
Even with the signing of Eric Decker, the Jets still need to get a top notch WR in the draft. Watkins is probably out of the question, but they can trade up to get Evans or Beckham if they choose. If Barr is off the board by the time the Titans are on the clock, trading down to gain an additional pick could interest them. Tennessee does not have a third round pick.

Browns/Cowboys:
This would involve Cleveland's pick at #26. If the Browns go QB at #4, a WR would be next on their checklist. There is a chance that all the big four receivers (Watkins, Evans, Beckham, Lee) could be off the board, so a trade to get one of them would be necessary. They could also look at OG Zack Martin. The Browns also have multiple picks. They have seven in the first four rounds. The Cowboys have several needs, especially on defense. Dallas hardly ever stays in the same slot on draft night. If either Donald or Clinton-Dix are still on the board, they could stay at #16 and pick one of those two. However, it seems likely both will be gone, perhaps upping the chances of Dallas trading down.

Saints/Cardinals:
To me, the player who could be a perfect fit for the Saints and their needs is Alabama LB C.J. Mosley. However, with teams like the Packers Eagles, and Browns ahead of them, the chances of them getting him while staying at 27 seems remote. A trade to #20, barring any of those teams trading up, put them ahead of those three. Arizona could move down seven spots and still be in position to fill a need. Gaining a pick would also be a plus.

Patriots/Chiefs:
New England has needs at DE, DT, and DB. While they can fill that need at 29, they may look to go up and seek quality. The Chiefs have a huge need at WR, but the top four will likely be gone and others picked at 23 could be a reach. Also, the fact Kansas City doesn't have a second round pick could be a motivation to trade down.

[Carp]

Chances Barr falls to 16? Would love him in Dallas.

Tenn will take Barr in all likelihood. We took a WR early last yr so Evans/Beckham is likely not an option. Wiz already came out and said we aren't going RB or CB in the 1st round. We're moving to a 3-4 and Donald is more of a 4-3 DT than a 3-4 end. Unless we trade out of this pick I don't see anyway in which we would pass on Barr.

[CrimsonCowboy]

Agree with Carp. While I think there could be a chance he falls to Dallas, in reality, I don't think Tennessee lets him get by, if he falls that far.

[Carp]

Trading out of the pick is still my preferred choice however. Especially if San Fran wanted Gilbert, Dix, or Beckham and they wanted to give us their 1st, 2nd and 3rd round picks.

[zitothebrave]

So unless someone trades up, looks like Clowney 1 and Robinson 2 most likely. After that it's all up in the air except Bortles/Manziel and Watkins are likely to go in the 3-5 range. Hopefully 2 QBs or Matthews goes there so Mack is there at 6 but it's looking like most likely Matthews to the Falcons. Hopefully someone wants to trade up to the Falcons pick. Don't know why though unless Watkins fell.

Probably have to get to 6 to have a shot at Evans. Also any team wanting to move up for a falling QB with TB, Minny on our heels. Also, hearing lots more that Mack goes first.

[Heyward]

Mack isnt falling to 6.

Some talk Hou likes him over Clowney.

[Bj1133]

Donald-Pryor-Ha Ha

I'll be happy with any of those 3 for the Bears at #14. Would love to see them get Donald at 14 and somehow get back into the 1st round to grab one of the 2 safeties. They only have 6 picks this year, so they'd have to use some of next year's picks to do so.

[cajunrevenge]

I heard a rumor the saints would trade up to 14 if a certain player they want is there. Probably Gilbert.

[Carp]

I've been hearing the opposite with the Saints. With their cap situation, I've heard they're the most likely of any team to trade out of the 1st round and load up on picks.

[zitothebrave]

I've been hearing the opposite with the Saints. With their cap situation, I've heard they're the most likely of any team to trade out of the 1st round and load up on picks.

That doens't make too much sense. The cap hit between say 14 and 44 is 1M if anything a team tight to the cap would go harder for the higher pick because they can afford 1 player more than 2.

[CrimsonCowboy]

All I know right now if Dallas picks Manziel (Don't think they will), I'm going to Arlington and have Jerry Jones committed.

[zitothebrave]

All I know right now if Dallas picks Manziel (Don't think they will), I'm going to Arlington and have Jerry Jones committed.

I don't think Jerry will get a shot to make that mistake, assuming Manziel makes it past the Browns and Raiders, he would also have to make it past the Bucs and Vikings, those 4 teams going non-QB or taking Bridgewater, Carr, or Bortles all over Manziel is unlikely, but you never know.

[zitothebrave]

So while unlikely, it seems like what the Falcons need is someone to draft someone really stupid or 2 QBs to go in the top 5 to land one of the guys they really want or be in a position to net some nice picks

So it looks like the 5 best prospects by most opinions are in kind of order, Clowney, Mack, Robinson, Watkins, Matthews. 1 and 2 are usually consensus, but honestly after 1 it's all up for debate. I like Matthews, but I'd rather have one of the top 3.

So looking at the draft, you have

Texans - Clowney (almost a given by all reports) Texans want to trade out, but no one ahead of Atlanta seemingly wants CLowney or anyone else on the board that much.
Rams - Robinson or Mack - More likely position of tradeout. Say the Browns really want Manziel or the Raiders really want Watkins, or say the Texans don't take Clowney Rams may have some offers
Jags - QB or Mack - Just used a very high (yuk yuk yuk) pick on Blackmon, can't see them going Watkins but you never know
Browns - QB or Watkins - DOn't have much need on the OL. They desperately need a Franchise QB. They may look to trade out. Browns would be dumb if they don't trade out to not take a QB
Raiders - Watkins, Evans or Matthews,theyneed WRs, Detroit would likely go nuclear if Watkins goes 4 and Evans 5. Raiders are most likely team to trade out as well. Best case scenario for you Sturg is Watkins to make it to this pick as they'd be very likely to consider trading out given only having 4 picks in the top 200
Then the Falcons are sitting at 6. Best case scenario, Jags and Browns both go QB. That leaves a great opportunity to trade down if the Raiders don't trade down ro to take Mack or Robinson. Worst case, no QBs go top 5 and the top 5 players are off the board. If that happens, or maybe even if Matthews is the best prospect, I think they go Barr, maybe Lewan assuming no one wants to trade up.

4 teams are most likely trade outs? LOL.

I think at 6 things begin to shake up. Especially if Manziel makes it there and Evans. Those are two players the Bills (Evans), TB (Manziel or Evans), and Detroit (Evans) could jockey for.

I'd take Lewan at 6 if GRob, and Matthews are gone. He plays nasty and has longer arms and a few inches on Matthews..I think I prefer him over Matthews anyway.

Either way, i think OBJ goes in that 10-12 range because of how early Evans will go.

I think the only way we get Watkins is if he falls to 4, and we trade up with Cleveland. I don't see anyway Oakland passes up on him, or even trades the pick, unless we blow them away, and we won't do that in such a deep draft

[Tapate50]

Citing "word on the street," ESPN's Ed Werder reported on SportsCenter Wednesday that the Texans are asking the Falcons for a Robert Griffin III-like trade haul to get from No. 6 overall to No. 1.

In 2012, the Redskins sent the Rams three first-round picks and a second-round pick to jump from No. 6 to No. 2 overall, where they drafted RG3 behind Andrew Luck. The move made more sense with Washington pursuing a quarterback. Clowney has a chance to be great, but even if he has a Hall of Fame career, would not offer the impact of a franchise quarterback. Per Werder, the "dialogue" between the Texans and Falcons is "legitimate, and continues as we speak."

[CrimsonCowboy]

Hmmm. Not sure I do that if I'm the Falcons.

[zitothebrave]

Hmmm. Not sure I do that if I'm the Falcons.

I absolutely wouldn't. I'd be super pissed if we did. You can make that move for a franchise QB who'll be around for a decade+ not a defensive end. Unless he winds up being the best defensive player of all time or the Falcons win a ring before those picks are gone it would be a horrific trade for the Falcons

[Tapate50]

There aren't a lot of suitors and the Rams are dying to trade back as well...doubt the move up costs us much more than a 1 next year. Personally, I think we need three starters from this draft, so I'd hold onto every pick we have.

There aren't a lot of suitors and the Rams are dying to trade back as well...doubt the move up costs us much more than a 1 next year. Personally, I think we need three starters from this draft, so I'd hold onto every pick we have.

My idea as well. In the first round we get one of Mack/Robinson/Matthews or worst case we get Lewan or Barr. Second round we get Tuitt, Ford, or an OL. The depth of flex players is why I won't cry too much if we don't get Mack and why I'd take Lewan/Matthews over Barr. Third round we can go hunting for safety or RB, or Center or a number of other positions of need. I don't consider them first 2 round necessary to fix because protecting ryan and rushing the passer are way more important than secondary or RB. Also some quality OL who may fall to the third like Gabe Jackson, Trai TUrner, Cyril RIchardson, etc. I like Sims in the 4th if he's there for a RB pick. and the last 3 picks add some line depth and secondary depth.

Also one mock I saw had Sam falling to the Falcons in the 7th. That would rock. He's got some raw skills, could be a 3-4 rush end or drop end when needed or a 4-3 OLB or a super sub. Hard to argue against someone with what he did in his last year at Mizzou

[Tapate50]

This is my best case scenario:

1. Lewan OT Mich
2. Demarcus Lawrence OLB\DE Boise
3. Mewhort OT\C\OG OSU
4. Baptiste CB to convert to FS NEb
4. Jerrick McKinnon RB GSU
5. Lofton LSU FS
6. Joe Don Duncan TE Dixie St (Want a WR also here or Kelcy Quarles)
7. Zac Kerr DT Delaware
7. whoever
7. whoever

[zitothebrave]

That would work for me. Don'y know if I'd take Lewan over Matthews but I can see the case. Lewan has more ability but is less polished.

[NinersSBChamps]

Lions for Watkins or even Evans is probably the most likely trade. Rams and Texans i don't think will find someone willing ot pay what they're asking for but you never know. Browns JMO set the tone for the rest of the draft. Jags are seemingly unlike to take a QB. No effing clue why so they're likely to take Robinson or Mack. Browns take Matthews or Watkins and then Evans may go 5 to the Raiders.

[bravesnumberone]

Can't wait for tomorrow. The national coverage is going to be insufferable. I love football, but damn, the last couple months.

[zitothebrave]

So many mocks are going with

1. Clowney
2. Robinson
3. Mack
4. Manziel
5. Watkins

Did see one that went

1. Clowney
2. Mack
3. Watkins
4. Manziel
5. Evans

Really hope that one of Mack or Robinson is there. Lions better hope that second one doesn't happen.

[rico43]

Draft is nine hours away...

Trends seem to be as follows:

Manziel's family does not want him to wind up with one of the Texas teams, so that he can more easily leave behind his "Johnny Football" rep.
Manziel himself has discreetly let it be known he wants little to do with Jacksonville, even as rumors are trending towards that match.
Texas would like to deal the top pick ... probably because owner wants Clowney, GM wants Mack and Coach O'Brien wants QB. Are willing to wait until they are on the clock
Rams would also like to trade down from No. 2, but are not going to touch No. 13 pick
Browns like Bridgewater, but expect him to be there at No. 26 -- their second first-round pick.
Falcons among teams that like Missouri's David Sam, but don't expect him to be drafted
"Draft Day" still under $27 million at box office after $9 million opening weekend. Officially a bomb.

I've been hearing the opposite with the Saints. With their cap situation, I've heard they're the most likely of any team to trade out of the 1st round and load up on picks.

Hate to break it to you but the saints could create another 20 cap space if they want to. Restructuring Brees base salary alone coupd create 7 mill in cap space.

I'm a Bucs fan and I'm not ganna lie...I'd love for them to take Manziel. Would make them relevant and exciting. Glennon isnt that good and McCown just got hot at the right time. I also would like Evans at 7 if he's available.
