Todd Mcshay Mock Draft 5.0 of 2016 (3-round mock!) I do it for the bruhs, bruh.

Carolina Panthers

Round 1 (30): Germain Ifedi, OT, Texas A&M
Round 2 (62): Austin Johnson, DT, Penn State
Round 3 (93): Justin Simmons, S, Boston College

Analysis: Ifedi has all of the measurables you're looking for in a OT prospect -- 6-foot-6, 324 pounds and 36-inch arms. He has the raw tools to one day develop into a starting left tackle. With experience playing guard and tackle, Ifedi would give the Panthers some options up front. Both of Carolina's starting DTs (Kawann Short and Star Lotulelei) are free agents next offseason, so it makes sense to bring in a guy like Johnson, who could develop into a starter if one or both of those guys left. Simmons had an eye-opening combine workout -- best short-shuttle (3.85 seconds) and eighth-best vertical jump (40 inches) -- and a nose for the ball while at Boston College. Carolina needs another playmaker to pair with Kurt Coleman in the backend.

Other teams picks:

Denver Broncos

Round 1 (31): Connor Cook, QB, Michigan State
Round 2 (63): Sheldon Day, DT, Notre Dame
Round 3 (94): Jordan Howard, RB, Indiana
Round 3 (98): Connor McGovern, G, Missouri

Analysis: With just Mark Sanchez and Trevor Siemian on the depth chart, quarterback is by far the biggest hole for the defending Super Bowl champions. At pick No. 31, there wasn't a single player left on the board with a first-round grade, and Cook was actually less of a reach than the top available players at other positions of need. Cook improved as a senior, showing more comfort with his reads and better anticipation as a passer. Day's motor is second to none at the DT position; he's one of the most underrated players in this draft and would thrive in Wade Phillips' defense, which highlights versatile interior guys who can penetrate. Howard, meanwhile, has the size, power, vision and competitiveness to eventually develop into a bell-cow starter in the NFL. He'd give the Broncos a good 1-2 punch with C.J. Anderson.

Seattle Seahawks

Round 1 (26): Andrew Billings, DT, Baylor
Round 2 (56): Derrick Henry, RB, Alabama
Round 3 (90): Le'Raven Clark, OT, Texas Tech
Round 3 (97): Briean Boddy-Calhoun, CB, Minnesota

Analysis: A nimble athlete for his size (310 pounds), Billings is a dominant and versatile run-defender. He still needs to develop as a pass-rusher, but he'd get plenty of one-on-one opportunities playing in Seattle's stellar front seven. Henry has a ridiculous size-speed combo, running a 4.54 40 at 247 pounds. I love the fit within the Seahawks' scheme, especially considering he'd stay fresh splitting carries with Thomas Rawls. Clark, meanwhile, has the frame and the length to develop into a starting left tackle. He fills a need in Seattle after Russell Okung left for the Broncos in free agency.

Atlanta Falcons

Round 1 (17): Darron Lee, OLB, Ohio State
Round 2 (50): Hunter Henry, TE, Arkansas
Round 3 (81): Carl Nassib, DE, Penn State

Analysis: The Falcons were the worst defense in the NFL at covering running backs and tight ends last season, allowing 213 combined completions, according to ESPN Stats & Information research. Lee would help solve that problem with his 4.47 speed and outstanding coverage ability. At 6-foot-5 and 250 pounds, Henry would give QB Matt Ryan a much-needed weapon down the seam, while Nassib would help bolster a pass rush that generated just 19 sacks last season.

New Orleans Saints

Round 1 (12): Sheldon Rankins, DT, Louisville
Round 2 (47): Joshua Garnett, G, Stanford
Round 3 (78): Jaylon Smith, OLB, Notre Dame

Analysis: I love the fit with Rankins and the Saints. He fills a huge need on their defense with his ability to pressure the quarterback from the interior. A high-motor player, Rankins also excels against the run -- good news for a Saints defense that got gashed far too often last season. Smith would've been my No. 1 overall player if not for the devastating knee injury he suffered in his final collegiate game. He's one of the ultimate risk-reward players in this class, with rare ability to impact the game on every snap when healthy.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Round 1 (9): Jack Conklin, OT, Michigan State
Round 2 (39): Chris Moore, WR, Cincinnati
Round 3 (74): Shilique Calhoun, DE, Michigan State

Analysis: For a team that wants to run the ball and needs a right tackle, Conklin is a better fit for Tampa Bay than Stanley. The Michigan State product is a natural fit on the right side as a plug-and-play starter. He has the long arms (35 inches) and agility to protect the QB and would be a welcome sight for second-year QB Jameis Winston. So, too, would Moore. Vincent Jackson had just 33 catches in 10 games last season, as he struggled to stay healthy. Moore has underrated playmaking ability and the potential to develop into a solid No. 2 WR. He would give Winston a good underneath option to complement Mike Evans. Calhoun, meanwhile, needs to get stronger against the run, but he brings and impact edge-rusher if developed properly.

Hit the pie button, poo, bruhs.

I like my mock draft better.  Trade down in the first part of 2nd because all of the key guys aren't there at 30.  Pick up another 3rd round pick.

Round 2 Pick 9 (NYG): Derrick Henry, RB, Alabama (A)
Round 2 Pick 31: Sterling Shepard, WR, Oklahoma (A-)
Round 3 Pick 8 (NYG): Chris Jones, DT/DE, Mississippi State (A-)
Round 3 Pick 30: Miles Killebrew, SS, Southern Utah (B+)
Round 4 Pick 31: Hassan Ridgeway, DT, Texas (B+)
Round 5 Pick 29: Charone Peake, WR, Clemson (A)
Round 7 Pick 31: KeiVarae Russell, CB, Notre Dame (A+)

I always find it amusing whenever people post their mocks with us trading down. That 5th year option will forever prevent Gettleman from trading down. The reasoning that we trade down is always because the key guys aren't there at 30. The key guys according to Kiper, McShay et all? I don't think most people considered Shaq a key guy at 25 yet we drafted him. If there is one first round grade on the board at 30 it doesn't matter who it is, Gettleman will draft him.

Also, McShay's draft sucks.

How many of the guys with "the athleticism to eventually become an NFL LT" actually work out?  It seems like there's a couple of them every year and they're never heard of again after draft day.  Guys with the athleticism and SKILL to play LT in the NFL go in the top 20.  Other guys find a way to overcome athletic shortcomings and still play LT at an acceptable level.  The athletic projects at OT almost never work out in the long run.  The mid-round/late-round/UDFA guys who work out in the long run are usually hard workers with excellent technique that have some athletic limitations.  That will overcome natural ability in thw trenches every time.

    • I think we’re evaluating them for depth. Pretty much every position on defense can use an upgrade 
    • Nobody said he isn’t because BY got benched for a reason. But the discussion has always been if Bryce is “closing the gap” since he returned as a starter. Legitimate conversation don’t you think?
