WW85'S FEB ROUND 1 Mock Draft

Hali had a career high in sacks his first year playing OLB, and while Dorsey isn't an ideal 3-4 DE he was more effective this year as a 5-tech than he was last year as a 3-tech

 

Yes, as he's one of the top 5 players in the draft.

You may go with "most probable" according to what you think, but wouldn't the better idea be "best player?"

To have him falling out of the top 10 is a joke...Jacksonville gets their 3rd top 2 round DE in 2 drafts...but can't get their first good WR in years?

 

Plus Tyson Jackson looked good...

 

I could see Bryant in Jacksonville, but Del Rio needs a good year to save his job and a defensive end has a bigger chance of making an impact as a rookie then a wide receiver.

I think wide receivers are being devalued a bit the last couple years. There's only been maybe a half dozen taken in the top 10 the last 5 years and the rate of whether the receiver blossoms into a player worthy of being selected that high is maybe 50/50.

 

Jets will be trading up depending on who is left on the board-

 

...with what?

 

Disagree...Bryant is a better WR prospect than Morgan is a DE prospect and that should factor.

Also, they just took Groves and Harvey in the draft a couple years ago. Plus they're young at DE in general...

They just rebuilt their OL last year with Monroe and Britton, but after that it's basically MJD, Sims-Walker, and Garrard when he's healthy.

Plus, how many rookie DEs have a major impact or even see the field a ton? Morgan's good but is he really THAT good?

I'm pretty blown away at how underrated Bryant is on this board. The guy hasn't even been questioned as the #1 WR in the draft and he didn't even play this year...Not to mention there's a whole bunch of people expecting him to weigh in at 6'2 220 with either a high 4.4 or slightly over a 4.5. It's not as rare as it used to be, but having a guy who everyone goes "OK, who's #2 after him?" usually says a whole lot about talent level...Then there's the game tape, his size, and his work ethic and it shouldn't even be a debate really.

 

I think we might trade Kerry and our #1 to get down to Cleveland's #7 if Joe Haden is still on the board.

Which I'm guessing he will be-



Wacha think?

 

...Why? There's other corners besides Haden, and they won't be getting a #7 contract.

 

I think he would compliment Revis perfectly-

He's a Junior and will only get bigger/stronger and he already plays very physical.

I just can't imagine the Jets staying at that spot, only if they have someone in mind.

If we lose Braylon and get those picks in return it's a whole new ballgame.

 

I think that's not going to happen. Packaging a douche-bag safety with our first rounder to move up 22 spots in a super-talented draft won't happen. Rhodes doesn't have that much value...not even close.

Remember, Mike Holmgren is now in charge in Cleveland. No more retarded trades by Eric Mangini...

 

Shit, I forgot. No more raping in Cleveland. It's nice to dream though.

 

Of course he would...he's good. That's not the issue.

 

I'd be willing to bet that Bryant goes higher than 12th, and will be a consensus top 5 prospect by the end of combine.

Of course you do, and it does. Just like everybody else's....

Dude...he's still on the team heading into his 3rd year with the team. Why would I admit I was wrong? I'm going to laugh my ass off when he plays well...I'll try to keep these couple sentences in mind. Tf are you going to haunt me with? I mean, if insisting you're right helps you sleep at night go right ahead, but it doesn't actually make you right.

That could be for a number of reasons. WR isn't as valuable as say a QB, LT, Suh, and McCoy would be to a top 5 team, but there's a whole bunch of people who think he's a top 5 talent. I'm one of them.

McClain won't go top 5 either...Unless he blows away at combine he's not as good a prospect as Willis, even if he's the best LB prospect SINCE Willis (which I think he is)...Willis went what...11th? 12?...If he runs a 4.5 then he's probably cemented as the best LB...but a top 5 pick? Not in this draft...maybe last year...probably last year...

Tf are you getting so pissed off about? Why the fuck do you insist you're more knowledgeable than anyone of us? What're flipping out for? Because I dared to disagree with your placing of a player who many, many people think is a high end prospect, regardless of position? Scout had him at 3 last August...Scott Wright has him in his top 5 (talents/players) right now and has had him up there for a while now...Mike Mayock compared him to Andre Johnson (which I've been making for months, with few disagreements beyond size and Johnson being a former sprinter)...He may not go top 5, but like McClain it wont be because he's not a top player in this draft...

I don't get your problem with me, but it's YOUR problem. Deal with it. I have nothing against you, except for this fact that you can't speak to me without going on some rant involving some past debate we've had. It's the internet...stop holding some fuckin grudge against me like I'm attacking you by disagreeing with you.

 

Being a top 5 talent doesn't necessarily mean you're going to go in the top 5 of the draft. I think Bryant is really good, hell I took him at #9 with the Bills in the 3 round mock. But considering how many holes the teams at the top of the draft have to fill, and the fact that a team like the Browns or Chiefs would probably be able to grab a Brandon Lafell/Golden Tate/Damian Williams/Arrelious Benn at the top of the 2nd round, I don't see him going any higher then 9th or 10th at best.

 

Pretty much what I expect. I don't see him falling out of the top 10, and if he falls to the Jaguars they'll jump on him and not think twice.

 

You have 3 safeties and 4 CBs going in the first round. That's too many for a class that is considered to have depth but not to be deep.

 

After the combine I don't see JPP falling that far.

That being said, awesome stuff as usual WW.
