CBS Sports Mock Draft (this week 16 Jan)

[Camp Fodder]

We have young WRs already. We need to go get someone like Jarvis Landry. I’m ok with drafting a WR but not 1st round

[Moorgan]

This off season should be super interesting with all the moving pieces going around and so many QBs coming out in the draft and the...

A whole offseason of 2 TE sets from Sanjay.

[Shocker]

I would rather have Kirk than Miller but do like him.

It's kinda interesting that they have us selecting Miller over Kirk and only 3 WR taken in round 1.  They're pretty similar players with good college WR production , Kirk seems to be faster but Miller possibly stronger or better at contested catches . I'd be happy with either of them honestly

Would not be surprised if we got a WR in r1 and went defense the rest of the way . Maybe Olsens injury will scare them enough to get a TE or if they are stew we could get a RB too . 

This

Miller is a 2nd round guy.

He isnt big at 5'11 190

He isnt fast (he's a 4.5 guy)

But he is Quick, Runs good routes, and has good hands

 

My comparison for him is Jarvis Landry

 

Kirk to me is a bulkier version of young Desean Jackson with better hands

If we take a TE in this draft, it needs to be:

 

Troy Is a really good TE but I really like Dallas Goedert. He really looks like a beast and can seperate well.

I've came away Very unimpressed with Fum this year after being high on him coming in.  Went to the Orange bowl and really watched him and he Really struggled to create seperation looking like Olsen his first few games back.

 

Goedert im a little skeptic especially coming from a small school.  There are plenty of those small school guys who put up great stats vs weak competition every year but cant block.

My guy, who you wont hear much until the prodays and combine

 

Dalton Shultz

I was Really high on George Kittle last year but he was a Nasty blocker and athletic where he had tons of potential as a pass catcher (had just as good a season receiving as OJ Howard this year)

 

Shultz is known for his blocking (barely over 200 yards receiving a year)  he was Big as a blocker for CMC and Love.  He's a solid athlete, Stanford staff raves about his route running ability and hands (despite not being used as a pass catcher due to system)

[KDawg004]

I like Christoper Herndon. I think he could be a complete TE and he’s not getting much attention. Especially after he ended the season with an injury.

Last week they had Ridley falling to us.  This week we take a SS type of player.  Thoughts

Players I found of interest taken after us.

Mark Anderson TE Oklahoma (slotted for Jacksonville)

Denzel Ward CB Ohio State (Slotted for Philly)

Chukwama Okorafor OT Western Mich (Slotted for Minnesota)

I think any of these could be as good as a WR.   Anderson is a big guy and could really bring the two TE set that was so effective with Chudzinski.

This dude is an idiot, 6 QB’s taken ahead of us and we settle for that? If Ridley isn’t there, no other WR is worth reaching for in the first. BTW, GB sure as hell won’t choose him, their OL and defense is pathetic.

I would say about 75% of these mock drafts are B.S. anyhow. 

IMO, Most of these guys write with a player they want to fall to a certain team and come up with some justifiable reason why those player get selected.   Go down the list, find that one player that seems way out of place and that writer is probably close to that team.

I post these just to create conversation.

No change for us.  Still have us taking Miller.

I like Miller but is that too high for him? could probably get him in the 2nd? I just there are a few WR we could get later that would fill our need there...
