This is my first mock all picks are realisticly possible in those rounds imo. 1th Round 18th pick CB Darqueze Dennard Solidly built, athletic, instinctive, press-man cover man who took his game to another level as a senior. Brings intensity, confidence and competitiveness to the corner. Offers size to lock horns with bigger receivers 2th Round 49th pick TE Troy Niklas A converted DE/OLB who emerged from the shadow of Bengals 2013 first-rounder Tyler Eifert, Niklas is the latest in a strong line of NFL tight ends produced by Notre Dame. He boasts an intriguing combination of size, athleticism, receiving ability and blocking ability to develop into a bona fide, balanced, No. 1 tight end. Has played tight end for just two years and is clearly ascending. 3th Round 80th pick WR Davante Adams A rangy, sure-handed possession receiver with starter-caliber, positional traits. Lacks top-end speed and strength. As a 21-year-old, third-year sophomore entering the draft early, is still growing into his body and developing core strength. Comparing favorably to a poor man's Michael Crabtree, Adams possesses very intriguing upside to be groomed. 4thRound 104th pick FS Brock Vereen Intelligent, athletic, rangy free safety with desirable strength and cover skills to go along with football bloodlines. Needs to improve against the run but is instinctive and brings terrific intangibles that could propel him into a role as a starter and defensive leader. 115th pick QB Aaron Murray Game-managing pocket passer still recovering from a torn ACL. Would benefit from a moving pocket that can create open throwing lanes, yet does not have the foot quickness desired for a rollout passing game. Intelligence, intangibles and experience are all pluses. 137th pick WR Mike Davis A big, long, athletic receiver with inconsistent hands and questionable toughness and effort. Displays starter-caliber physical traits, yet his playing demeanor and approach turn off many evaluators and could force his draft status to sink. Is at his best outside the numbers as an "X" receiver. 5th Round 154th pick DE Michael Sam A productive, 4-3 weakside rusher who came on as a senior and it made his last season his best. Could fit most ideally as a 3-4 outside linebacker in a zone-blitzing scheme like the Steelers, Ravens or Jets.
I love the Niklas, Adams and Vereen picks, I'm just not sure if Adams will be there in the 3rd or Niklas in the 2nd but would absolutely love it if they are and the Jets take them. I'm not sure I agree with the comment that Adams lacks core strength. In the footage I've seen, he breaks a pretty good number of tackles. One doesn't do that without balance and strength. Dislike taking a CB in the 1st, especially not one named Gilbert. I think Vereen has the football smarts, instincts and speed to develop into a quality starting FS. Not very high on Murray or Sam, and if the reports are true about Davis' inconsistent effort and hands, I wouldn't waste a pick on him. I'd rather have someone with reliable hands like Campanaro.
If we miss out on Ebron , which we probably will. There is no doubt in my mind that we are getting one of Amaro, Nicklas or ASF in 2 or 3. A guy I would like to go after in Rd 4-5 is Brandon Coleman..big WR out of Rutgers. Love the Sam pick. Jets seem like a good fit for him since he knows Sheldon.
No to a CB at 18 unless its Gilbert. Why would we take a WR with inconsistent hands when we have one on the roster already in Hill.
really like the first 4 picks for the Jets, and would be very happy with this draft. question on Adams, are you assuming Landry off the board by the 80th?
yep i like landry more as well cuz of those hands but i think he wont be there neither him or jordan mathews both those i prefer then davante adams but dont think the pick will be there for those 2.
