Mock Draft


Devil Doc

Recommended Posts

Brown, even if Simmons is still available. If we don't shore up the middle of the defensive line, we're screwed. Won't matter if we can get after the passer, or shut down the receivers. Won't even matter if we score a butt ton of points.

I'd rather see us pick something else, but when you run the numbers, DT is the most important pick for us and Brown is head and shoulders the best one out there. I'm not saying he'll be Aaron Donald or even DonkeyKong Suh, but if he is at least early years Kris Jenkins, we're going to be much better off.

I spent a few minuted scouring the interwebs, and came to a conclusion, most of the mock drafts have us taking:

Derrick Brown- Edge

Isiah Simmons- LB

Jeff Okudah- CB

Which one would you guys think we need the most? 

Derrick Brown is considered "edge"?

Out of those 3

Brown, Okudah, Simmons

DL needs help in a bad way.

CB, while Okudah is a Elite prospect.  The depth of this CB class makes me want to hold off on CB until after rd 1 while still taking a Elite prospect at a need in a thinner crop.

Simmons is a monster and a combine warrior.  But imo, with a multiple 4-3 and having Whitehead and Shaq.  That group is much better off than most position groups we have currently sadly enough.

Trade back but stay in the top 10-12 .  Get some extra picks that might be used to trade back up for a player of need or stay pat with the extra picks .  We have multiple needs so with the extra picks we could double dip say on DL or CB .

I don't know if this information will help, but we have 2 centers, 2 guards, 3 DT, and 4 CB. That should at least give you an idea how this draft will go. Having pick #7 is actually really good because it gives us the option of trading down or drafting BPA.

    • I think they are holding back to see what they have in the young guys, but I think it's a near certainty at some point they will bring someone else in. Right now (assuming we keep 5 CBs which is normal), the top 5 IMO are: 1) Jaycee Horn 2) Mike Jackson 3) Chau Smith-Wade 4) Shemar Bartholomew  5) Akayleb Evans   Obviously Jaycee is the alpha in that room and paid as such. Need him to stay healthy and continue to play at a Pro-Bowl level. Mike Jack did pretty well all things considered last year, and they gave him lower-level starter money. Fair deal for both sides.  Smith-Wade showed some promise as a slot CB. I think low-key he's a lock for the team. Different size and skill set than the other CBs. Shemar Bartholomew was the most sought after waiver claim last preseason. Was 5th CB most and inactive most of last year. Had a few defensive and ST snaps. Nothing of note good or bad but too small a sample size to make any judgment. Akayleb Evans was a 2022 4th Rounder for the Vikings. Has started 19 games (including Week 18 for the Panthers) in his career and played in 43. Was pretty good in 2023 before getting injured and falling down the depth chart last year. There's some other guys on the outside looking in, but until they show more in training camp I dont see anyway they make the 53. And only Jaycee, Mike Jack, and Smith-Wade are locks to make this roster IMO.  
    • Was just reading the Ask the Old Guy story on the team's website and was shocked to see that only two 2nd Rounders have signed so far, 30 of them haven't. That isn't normal, the Texans really screwed things up for the rest of the league, no other explanation that I can think of for 30 of the 32 picks to still be unsigned at this point.
    • They need to address CB before season starts. This is not going to cut it.
