Have a mock draft? Post it here. Discuss.

Mine.

1. Alameda Ta'amu, NT, Washington

2. Cliff Harris, CB/PR, Oregon

3. Bears Bust.

4. Kenny Tate, SS, Maryland (Bulk Up and place him in the OLB position).

5. Lucas Nix, OT/G, Pittsburgh

6. Nick Toon, WR, Wisconsin

7. Malik Jackson, DE, Tennessee

Yes, I realize I didn't go with the popular, "get Alshon/blackmon" Idea. But I think we have bigger issues in the defense than the offense. My reasoning is that we have Gettis coming back. With our current WR core, we are fine. In my humble opinion. I do believe we are need one more CB, I know we have hogan, but I would like to get one more Cb this coming draft to fortify that position in years to come.

SO yeah, what's your mock draft?

Three versions; first if we end up picking top-10:

1st: Alshon Jeffery, WR, South Carolina

2nd: Travis Lewis, OLB, Oklahoma

4th: Brandon Washington, OG, Miami

5th: Vince Browne, DE, Northwestern

6th: Philip Lutzenkirchen, TE, Auburn

7th: T.J. Barnes, NT, Georgia Tech (Jeff King comp. pick)

7th: Jonathan Bostic, ILB, Florida

Second, if we end up picking 11-15-ish:

1st: Alameda Ta'amu, NT, Washington

2nd: Travis Lewis, OLB, Oklahoma

4th: Brandon Washington, OG, Miami

5th: Vince Browne, DE, Northwestern

6th: Philip Lutzenkirchen, TE, Auburn

7th: T.J. Barnes, NT, Georgia Tech (Jeff King comp. pick)

7th: Jonathan Bostic, ILB, Florida

Third, if we trade down and end up picking in the 20's and get a 2nd + a 6th:

1st: Zach Brown, OLB, UNC (via trade)

2nd: Brandon Thompson, DT, Clemson

2nd: Cliff Harris, CB/PR, Oregon (via trade)

4th: Chris Owusu, WR, Stanford

5th: Stephen Good, G, Oklahoma

6th: Philip Lutzenkirchen, TE, Auburn

6th: Josh Oglesby, OT, Wisconsin (via trade)

If we could get Thompson and Harris in the 2nd I'd cream myself. I'm not huge on Thompson, but in the 2nd is very good value. I'm not big on that Ta'amu guy at all. The youtube I've watched on him shows him getting shoved around by single blockers all the time. Doesn't even seem to be able to hold the point of attack, which is all a 330 lbs guy is supposed to do. He gets pushed around more in college than Fua does in the pros (judging off what little I've seen on his youtube highlights).

I think the WR talk comes from the fact that Smith is getting older and his contract is up soon. Our offense has been the one bright spot, but without Smith that would change and we wouldn't even have that. I want to get better on defense too, but not at the expense of Cam's development.

If we do end up with a top-5 pick we HAVE to take Justin Blackmon if he's there. There really aren't any defensive players worth a top-5 pick other than Coples, who is a DE, which isn't a need.

You get the chance to take a guy who has 12 sack potential you don't pass it up. I'd draft Kalil or Coples 5 times out of 5 over blackmon or any other WR in this years draft.

Also Brandon Thompson has shot up draft boards and is a middle 1st round pick or there about right now.

If things keep up and Arizona and Denver both stay horrible, they lowest Carolina will pick is 8th.

I'm going to put Carolina picking around 10th.

Depending on what you believe the needs for the teams are, here's my two way early mocks.

1st - Worthy - DT - Mich ST. ( I think he shoots up draft boards)

2nd - Minnefiled - CB - Virgina

4th - Lewis - OLB - OKL (he's considered a fringe 3rd round talent, barely a top 10 OLB in this draft)

5th - Iloka - FS - Boise

6th - Wright - WR - Baylor

6th - Zucevics - OT - Iowa (Comp pick Marshall)

7th -Hardin - CB - Oregon St.

7th - Van Bergen - DE - Michigan (Comp pick King)

1st - Kirkpatrick - CB - Alabama ( if he's not there, trade back a few spots for Claiborne from LSU)

2nd - Chapman - DT - Alabama

4th - Mosley - OT - Auburn

5th - Nielsen - OLB - Iowa

6th - Crawford - DE - Boise

6th - Daniels - SS - Duke

7th - Adams - WR - Arkansas

7th - Young - FS - South Flordia

I went over every team's record and schedule and right now I see us going 6-10 and picking 10th overall. There are quite a few teams who should finish worse than us record-wise: Rams, Dolphins, Colts, Vikes, Broncos, Jags, Cardinals, Browns, & Chiefs.

Picking at 10 our options will likely range from Kirkpatrick (possibly), Vontaze Burfict, Michael Floyd, Alameda Ta'amu, Morris Claiborn, etc. My personal preference would be to trade down and pick up an extra 2nd rounder. We should be able to considering that there will likely be 4 QB's projected to go in the 1st round and some teams will be looking to trade up for one.

If we can trade down, get Zach Brown, Ta'amu, Michael Floyd, Janoris Jenkins, or whoever, and still pick up another 2nd rounder (or even a 3rd rounder) we should jump all over that.

    • I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball 
    • 100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.
    • I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
