Morgri's Mock (only Mock)

I do one Mock each year... Seem's to be about that time.

While Safety is important, I don't think Ron Rivera and his staff value it enough to pick on in the first round. Cornerback, however, has been a thorn in their side for years, and they have, contrary to popular thought put a lot of assets into the corner position. Hurney also draft Gamble in the first round many years ago, so he isn't afraid to take a shot at a first round corner.

1. Mike Hughes - Offers solid corner skills as well as strong return skills, allowing us to keep CMC, who is a great returner, off special teams and in a primary roll as a RB.

2. Rashaad Penny - No one values the run attack more than Rivera and Hurney. Our offense has been run first since 1995 and that not changing. As good as CAP can be, the staff does not trust him in games and I don't see that changing. Penny is as solid in between tackler as you can find in this draft, and may not even be here at this pick.

3. Jessie Bates - Now Rivera and Hurney invest in the safety. A good enough player to start, but will probably rotate with the veteran Searcy as the starter and be groomed for the long term starter role.

3-2. Desean Hamilton - A great route runner that offers insurance should Samuels not be ready for the season. Can play inside and out and offers a great option on third downs. Knows how to get open in zone coverage, which leads to high percentage of first downs on his catches.

5. DE

6. LB

7. TE

Thanks for taking a read.

My only argument is drafting people based on "return skills" value is becoming irrelevant, as the NFL is phasing out returns because of the danger with concussions.

which sucks and almost makes special teams useless. the 2005 bears would be ashamed.

      Best to see Icky in the position we drafted him in to see if he continues making progress. All signs point to Canales/Morgan staying on board and so decisions on whether to move him elsewhere on the line will probably be done during the offseason. Personally, I'm more concerned about a more long-term answer at safety and Moton's spot. Love the guy but he's a FA after 2026 and he'll be 32 by then. Kinda has that sign of having to let a player walk one year too early.

      All I am saying is IMO if we were going to rework or extend his deal I think it would have happened by now.   Just feels like they are going to bite the bullet and let it run its course

      I mean me speaking honestly per normal- RT is not even on my radar for needing fixing....it sorta should be, but I feel its around 20s in "hey this need attention". Motown could have another 5 years of solid play leftd in his body and mind. I know something needs to done with his contract, its had money pushed back into the late years like three times now. He got like a 38 million cap number cause rhule, frittterererer and this past season Dan deferred money.  I think he's been "healthy" for most of his career and seems to work hard at being able to play. He's a good player to have on the team. I got no idea how this plays out.   We need to have friendly bet about Christs next contract- I say he gets 8million per and 40% guaranteed. If he gets below that, you are the true kungfu master- deal?
