Less than 2 weeks away and there has been some movement since my last mock! 1. Tampa Bay - Jameis Winston, QB, Florida State - I feel they wont pass on the local kid with a huge upside. 2. Tennessee - Leonard Williams, DT, USC - Best player in the draft and a massive need for the Titans. 3. Jacksonville - Dante Fowler, DE/OLB, Florida. They need a legit pass rusher and wont pass on the local talent that happens to be the best pass rusher in the draft. 4. Oakland - Kevin White, WR, West Virginia - Raiders love their speedy receivers... In this case they get a good one for Carr. 5. *TRADE* San Diego - Marcus Mariota, QB, Oregon - Chargers get Marcus as an insurance plan if Rivers walks next year. They also happen to love his potential and they don't need to play him from the start. He can learn under Rivers for 1 year. Chargers give up #17 overall + 3rd 2015 + 1st 2016. 6. New York Jets - Amari Cooper, WR, Alabama- Jets miss out on their QB but add an amazing consolation prize. Cooper can play in the slot or the outside. He is the best WR in the draft and will be a stud in this league. 7. Chicago - Randy Gregory, DE/OLB, Nebraska - Bears need help all over that D. Gregory had the Weed issue but his talents off the edge are impressive. I think Fox gambles on him as the same way he did with Von Miller. 8. Atlanta - Shane Ray, DE/OLB, Missouri - Atlanta like the Bears need help everywhere on D. Ray is a steady pass rusher that can play either a 3-4 OLB or a 4-3 DE. 9. New York Giants - Andrus Peat, OT, Stanford - Seems like a Giants player and he will plug and play from day 1. 10. St. Louis - Ereck Flowers, OT, Miami - Long is out and Flowers is the replacement. 11. Minnesota - DeVante Parker, WR, Louisville - Teddy with Parker again is a dream come true for the Vikings. 12. Cleveland - Vic Beasley, DE/OLB, Clemson- Adds speed off the edge and a partner for Kruger. 13. New Orleans - Trae Waynes, CB, Michigan State - Saints are thrilled to get the BPA at a position of need. 14. Miami - Todd Gurley, RB, Georgia - Fins go get a stud RB. They add a piece they desperately need. 15. San Francisco - Danny Shelton, NT, Washington- 9ers look to restructure their DL with one of my favorite prospects in the draft. 16. Houston - La'el Collins, OT/G, LSU - Houston looks to improve their OL. 17. *TRADE* Washington - Landon Collins, S, Alabama - Skins are extatic to land the best safety in the draft by trading back. 18. Kansas City - Brandon Scherff, G, Iowa - KC needs help at guard. 19. Cleveland - Breshad Perriman, WR, Central Florida - Browns take the speedster with an NFL pedigree since birth (Michael Irvin is his godfather). 20. Philadelphia - Philip Dorsett, WR, Miami - Chip shocks the world and reaches for the speedy playmaker to replace Maclin. 21. Cincinnati - T.J. Clemmings, OT, Pittsburgh - Dalton gets help in protection. TJ is the best all around OT in the draft. 22. Pittsburgh - Malcom Brown, DT, Texas - Pitt needs help everywhere on D. They start with a big boy to replace Kiesel. 23. Detroit -Marcus Peters, CB, Washington - Peters doesn't fall as far as some think. Detroit get a top 10 talent at a position of need. Hopefully he flys straight.... 24. Arizona - Jalen Collins, CB, LSU - With Cro gone they address their secondary. 25. Carolina - D.J. Humphries, OT, Florida - They need an OT to protect Cam. DJ is one of my favorites in the draft. 26. Baltimore - Jaelen Strong, WR, Arizona State - Flacco gets a new toy. They think about Melvin Gordon here but their WR core is too week to pass on Strong. 27. Dallas - Melvin Gordon, RB, Wisconsin - Dallas get lucky and Melvin falls to them. 28. *TRADE* New Orleans Alvin ''Bud" Dupree, DE/OLB, Kentucky - Rob gets a new toy he can linup all over that D. They give up #31 + 4th to move up. 29. Indianapolis - Eli Harold, OLB, Virginia - Colts need a pass rush off the edge and Harrold would immediately help them. 30. Green Bay - Eric Kendricks, ILB, UCLA - with Hawk gone they get his replacement. 31. *TRADE* Denver - Jordan Phillips, NT, Oklahoma - Phillips can play day 1 and fills a big hole left by Pot Roast. 32. New England - Eddie Goldman, DE/DT, Florida State - Pats cheat somehow.
that seems high to me for melvin gordon. gurley too. i can maybe see gurley going last few picks of the first round but doubt a HB is taken before the second round.
Your top 6 seem very plausible to me. I sort of tail off after our pick to be honest but there are a number of scenarios where I think we end up with Cooper.
good mock. Dorsett, Gordon, Humphries, Harold........all round 1 prospects I'd love to see drop to the Jets in round 2.......but likely will not. the top 6 is very plausible, as i believe someone will trade up for Mariota. if Cooper is the consolation prize, i'm totally on board. my biggest fear is Oakland takes Cooper instead of White, and everything else falls like you listed. in that event, who would you take? personally, in that event i'd do what you have the Giants doing at 9, and draft Peat to play RT, and eventually LT. and if that happens, the Giants would prob take Scherff instead, as i don't see him dropping to 18. He can definitely play RT in this league as well as G.
Nice mock. Sad to see Harold go before our pick in the 2nd. Maybe we can take Nate Orchard. We really need a OLB that can get to the QB.
Chargers aren't giving up enough to jump to 5. It would have to be their 2nd and probably next year's 1st and 4th. If Rivers is not included of course. Dupree is going wayyyyyyyy too late as well. He's late teens at the worst at this point. His ceiling is 6 with our pick. Probably Houston is his floor at 16.
