Your pick in this scenario

[Ricky Spanish]

poo i'd have to say lee and I'm not even his biggest supporter.

[Ricky Spanish]

This Mock is not credible... Having Carr go before Bridgewater???? Never in a million years.

 

 

That's almost as ludicrous as the panthers taking Cam Newton over the much more pro ready Blaine Gabbert.

Men lie, women lie.......

 

 

Marquis Lee   57 catches for 791 yards in the Pac 12.     6'0 tall      4.52 40 time   drop percentage 12.9%

 

Jordan Mathews 112 catches for for 1447 in the SEC.     6'3 tall      4.46 40 times drop percentage 10.3%

I think Marqise Lee will be a decent player but he has a high tendency to catch the ball with his body leading to some drops.

In this scenario, I wouldn't mind trading our first round pick to the Rams for both of their second round picks.

Assuming they don't go CB (meaning Dennard is off the board) with their second first round pick; Fuller or Verrett could be somewhat enticing to them.

Go with Morgan Moses with one of the picks, Jordan Matthews with the other and Devante Adams with our own pick.

This mock (CBS Sports) has almost everyone I was really, really hopin falling to us gone.  In this scenario, every single guy I love is being taken, Cooks, Pryor, Martin, right down to the Saints taking Benjamin right from under our noses.

 

We would be choosing from Cyrus, Marqise, Roby,  Fuller, Moses, Verrat among everyone else, but all of those guys have question marks.   

 

So who do take in round one with all these guys gone?

 

 

 

1. Houston Texans -- Jadeveon Clowney, DE, South Carolina: Clowney will look like a young Lawrence Taylor to Texans defensive coordinator Romeo Crennel. It would be a good move for the Texans to trade for Ryan Mallett or take a chance on Zach Mettenberger in a later round.

2. Cleveland Browns (Mock trade from Rams) -- Blake Bortles, QB, Central Florida:The Browns are working out all of the top quarterbacks and even though some are down on Bortles he's a big strong kid who will remind some of Ben Roethlisberger.

3. Jacksonville Jaguars -- Greg Robinson, OT, Auburn: Every football person knows Jake Matthews is more NFL ready, but Robinson's upside reminds line coaches of Walter Jones. This guy will be the best tackle since Tony Boselli in Jacksonville.

4. St. Louis Rams (Mock trade from Browns) -- Jake Matthews, OT, Texas A&M: Jeff Fisher moves down and gets a great player he has ties to from his Titans/Oilers days. Picking up Kenny Britt is an interesting deal to get Sam Bradford a big talented WR.

5. Tampa Bay Bucs (Mock trade from Raiders) -- Sammy Watkins, WR, Clemson:Watkins is a Southwest Florida kid who happens to be the best receiver in the draft and a game-breaker. The Bucs said goodbye to Mike Williams Friday.

6. Atlanta Falcons -- Khalil Mack, DE/OLB, Buffalo: Atlanta could take a left tackle like Taylor Lewan here, but they need a pass rusher to play right end in Lovie Smith's defense. Mack has made 87 plays behind the line of scrimmage in 48 games.

7. Oakland Raiders (Mock trade from Bucs) -- Johnny Manziel, QB, Texas A&M: The Raiders move down and still get a quarterback with game-changing skills. There's no need to put him on the field right away. They could select Derek Carr here instead, which wouldn't surprise me.

8. Minnesota Vikings -- Derek Carr, QB, Fresno State: The Vikings won't take just any quarterback at this spot in the draft for Norv Turner's offense. If Carr is available he makes the most sense. Minnesota may have to jump over Oakland to get him.

9. Buffalo Bills -- Taylor Lewan, OT, Michigan: Bills head coach Doug Marrone is a line coach by trade and he knows guys like Lewan don't grow on trees. Lewan makes the run game better and protects EJ Manuel.

10. Detroit Lions -- Justin Gilbert, CB, Oklahoma State: I go back and forth on which corner the Lions like more, but they can't go wrong with Gilbert, especially in a division with the Bears and Packers receivers.

11. Tennessee Titans -- Darqueze Dennard, CB, Michigan State: The Titans need to replace Alterran Verner and if they don't grab Dennard they will be looking again in the second round at pick No. 42.

12. New York Giants -- Aaron Donald, DT, Pittsburgh: One-gap penetrators like Donald are very hard to find, especially with his motor. Donald has made 89 plays behind the line of scrimmage between sacks and tackles for a loss. That is 31 more than the next best performance by an inside player in the draft.

13. St. Louis Rams -- Mike Evans, WR, Texas A&M: Even though the Rams signed Britt to a one-year deal Evans at 6-foot-5 with a 37-inch vertical is too hard to pass up. There are no more excuses for Sam Bradford.

14. Chicago Bears -- Ha Ha Clinton-Dix, S, Alabama: Chris Conti and Ryan Munday are not the answers at safety for the Bears. Clinton-Dix is a true free safety and a play-maker.

15. Pittsburgh Steelers -- Anthony Barr, OLB, UCLA: The Steelers' pass-rush production at outside linebacker has fallen off in recent years. Barr started playing defense just two years ago and in 27 games made 58 plays behind the line of scrimmage, including 22 sacks.

16. Dallas Cowboys -- Tim Jernigan, DT, Florida State: I'm not sure Jernigan is Rod Marinelli's kind of player. If the Cowboys do take him and they need a tackle or pass rusher, Jernigan will get in the best shape of his life.

17. Baltimore Ravens -- Ra'Shede Hageman, DT, Minnesota: Arthur Jones left in free agency and the 6-6 Hageman has the ability to line up anywhere in the Raven front three.Haloti Ngata can't play forever and this guy is an insurance policy against the end of Ngata's career.

18. New York Jets -- Eric Ebron, TE, North Carolina: Jets tight end Jeff Cumberland gave up his jersey number to Eric Decker for a reported $25,000. He will be giving up the starting TE spot to Ebron if the Jets draft him. The Jets haven't had a matchup TE since a healthy Dustin Keller.

19. Miami Dolphins -- Zach Martin, OT/OG, Notre Dame: Martin is versatile and can play just about anywhere on the line. He's also an insurance policy at left tackle if Brandon Albert was injured.

20. Arizona Cardinals -- Calvin Pryor, S, Louisville: The Cardinals could consider a QB of the future but may address that in a later round. Pryor is a hard-hitting safety and a Day 1 starter. Pryor was in on 218 tackles 38 games. He also forced nine fumbles and picked off seven passes.

21. Green Bay Packers -- Ryan Shazier, LB, Ohio State: Shazier is a sideline-to-sideline player and would line up on the weak side as well as being the nickel middle linebacker. He is always around the ball with nine forced fumbles, 40 tackles for a loss and 13 sacks.

22. Philadelphia Eagles -- Brandin Cooks, WR, Oregon State: Gone is DeSean Jacksonand in is a much cheaper replacement. Cooks can fly and he had 128 receptions last year. There will be a cry for defensive players at this spot and a case could be made for any of the remaining defensive guys left in the round.

23. Kansas City Chiefs -- Stephon Tuitt, DE, Notre Dame: The Chiefs lost Tyson Jacksonin free agency and Tuitt brings a lot to the table. He has more versatility than his teammate Louis Nix. Tuitt could be more disruptive in a pass rush than Jackson was for the Chiefs.

24. Cincinnati Bengals -- Kony Ealy, DE, Missouri: Gone is Michael Johnson and a solid pass rusher is a premium. Dee Ford is still on the board in this mock draft, but Ealy is the bigger player and will hold up better on the run downs.

25. San Diego Chargers -- Louis Nix, NT, Notre Dame: The Chargers have a void at nose tackle and Nix is the best in the draft. He will not put up big numbers in a 3-4 scheme but he will keep his old Notre Dame teammate Manti Te'o free to make plays.

26. Cleveland Browns -- Odell Beckham, WR, LSU: Beckham is an impressive young man and a perfect complement to Josh Gordon on the other side. Now the Browns offense should be able to score points.

27. New Orleans Saints -- Kelvin Benjamin, WR, Florida State: The Saints could look long and hard at DE Dee Ford, but a 6-5 wide receiver like Benjamin with an aging Colston and Meacham and Lance Moore gone might be too hard to pass up.

Xavier Su'a Filo

That's a guy I didn't even think about. Would be an amazing pick up.

He is a Bull, alone he can open highways to your RBs.

Men lie, women lie.......

 

 

Marquis Lee   57 catches for 791 yards in the Pac 12.     6'0 tall      4.52 40 time   drop percentage 12.9%

 

Jordan Mathews 112 catches for for 1447 in the SEC.     6'3 tall      4.46 40 times drop percentage 10.3%

 

And the two years before that?

 

191 catches, 2864 yds, and 25 touchdowns

 

throw in another 1k yards returning and this really isn't as difficult as some of you are trying to make it. Lee is one of the top prospects in this Draft, and it would be another Star situation if he fell to us....

I disagree... 

 

Marquis Lee is probably the better pure athlete as far as punt return change of direction type stuff, but he struggles when he faces near equal athletic ability.  When everyone focused on him without woods he didn't do anything to suggest he could be a number 1 in the NFL.  Everyone knew Mathews was coming and still couldn't shut him down even with the Vanderbuilt QB injuries he balled out no matter who was throwing.  He catches in traffic far better, larger hands, bigger frame, less injury worries,  .. you make it sound like Lee is far and away better than Mathews which I don't agree with.  Did I mention Mathews put up his numbers in the SEC? 

[C47]

I was more pointing out how ridiculous it was to stake your claim on 2013 numbers alone. I like Jordan Matthews, but Lee is a better prospect long term. No amount of SEC homerism is going to change that...

 

 

Also....it's really not hard. Marqise....

[WOW!!]

Put my vote in for Lee. BPA at a need area great value.

[MedellinHeel]

Dont really like Lee all that much. Doesnt seem fast or explosive in highlight vids. Looks like a dude with a little shake who can run good routes. 

 

Did he lose a step after his injury or something?

[Squirrel]

BPA Bridgewater.

Would love this. If someone was that desperate to get a QB ( i think several of the highly touted ones will go later than most people think. After #5 or 6, BPA list is pretty similar from 7-50. Why not grab 2 or 3 of those?
