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.

    • Then we had some impressive coaches to finish 8th from worst plus all of our injuries.  Titans and Raiders were pretty bad as well.
    • Agents have been out-negotiating GMs for years. That's why they had to implement the rookie wage scale. Top drafted rookies were basically starting to walk into the NFL as some of the highest paid guys in the league. Take it up in the next CBA. In the meantime, it is what it is. Agents hold the upper hand in these rookie negotiations and they know it. The teams already have a significant unrecoverable investment spent on these draftees in the value of the pick that they spent. Given the rookie wage scale there's not much to negotiate other than guarantees and offset language and once again the agents are kicking the GMs' asses again.
    • Except it's not about the money, it's precedent and teams not wanting to go down that path.  Once you guarantee all the 2nd rounders, then the 3rd rounders will want it, and so on.  If they keep viewing it as say, "well it's only X amount of money" then it's a slippery slope that doesn't end. Then you get Free Agents saying, "well if you're fully guaranteeing the contract of an unproven 57th pick of the draft, you clearly should be fully guaranteeing mine as your big FA signing this offseason" The NFL doesn't work with fully guaranteed contracts under it's current cap model.  If you want to give them out to the true elite of the elite players at impact positions like QB and Edge, then so be it, but there needs to be a line in the sand or it will get real messy.
