The Bad Guy
04-10-2010, 08:20 AM
This guy is pretty dialed in. It can be found on Realgm.com.



Round 1
1. St. Louis Rams: Sam Bradford, QB, Oklahoma.

An incredible pro day seals the top pick as Bradford. With Washington moving on Donovan McNabb, the trade market for the pick is next to none.

2. Detroit Lions: Gerald McCoy, DT, Oklahoma.

If the Lions are savvy and truly don’t care which stud DT they get, they can extort an extra later pick and allow the Bucs to secure Suh, whom Tampa greatly prefers according to sources I know and trust. The Russell Okung talk is a smokescreen--unless they can move down a few spots.

3. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Ndamukong Suh, DT, Nebraska.

They’ll take Gerald McCoy if the Lions take Suh. If for some reason they are both gone, look for C.J. Spiller.

4. Washington Redskins: Russell Okung, T, Oklahoma State.

This forecast got a lot clearer with the McNabb trade. Now Mike Shanahan can perform the overdue deed of fixing the offensive line and it starts with Okung, who has the versatility to play on either side.

5. Kansas City Chiefs: Eric Berry, S, Tennessee.

Looking more like a lock pick all the time. Of course if Scott Pioli gets paranoid about that, they could very well opt for Trent Williams or Okung if he’s still on the board.

6. Seattle Seahawks: Trent Williams, T, Oklahoma.

With the QB issue resolved, Pete Carroll can go about fixing the shaky OL. Williams has the potential to fill Walter Jones’ shoes and should start right away.

7. Cleveland Browns: Jimmy Clausen, QB, Notre Dame.

It might not be Cleveland making this pick, but I suspect Holmgren & Co. will be able to sell that they intend to take Clausen enough that anyone who truly wants him will jump in here to take the Notre Dame thrower. The Sheldon Brown trade takes Joe Haden out of the picture, though it does not take away Eric Berry if he’s still on the board and Cleveland keeps the pick.

8. Oakland Raiders: Anthony Davis, T, Rutgers.

I don’t buy the Bruce Campbell hype, and Davis is nearly as athletically gifted and much more accomplished and NFL-ready. Sleeper pick: Dez Bryant

9. Buffalo Bills: Dan Williams, DT, Tennessee.

Too many sources I’ve talked to insist that Williams is a surefire top 10 pick, and this is the best positional fit--the NT spot for a team converting to a 3-4.

10. Jacksonville Jaguars: Rolando McClain, LB, Alabama.

This is one of those picks where I’m essentially forecasting a trade without knowing the team moving up to get here. McClain is a stud-in-waiting and it’s widely speculated that Denver will take him at #11, which means an interested team (PHI? NE? GB?) has a defined target spot. They’ll find a willing dance partner in JAX, which I’m told would love to trade down. Sleeper pick: Joe Haden.

11. Denver Broncos (from CHI): Earl Thomas, S, Texas.

Higher than you’ve seen him before, but this is another case of too many people in the know telling me he’s too good to fall out of the top half of the first round. The Broncos have a pressing need to get younger in the secondary, and I’m a subscriber to the theory that when a team gets a pick via trade, they love to select the position of biggest need of the trading team just to rub their noses in it.

12. Miami Dolphins: Dez Bryant, WR, Oklahoma State.

From a talent perspective this is a steal, but from a risk perspective this is a big one. Bill Parcells loves his big receivers and has never shied from “personality” issues, and the Dolphins have not hidden neither their desire to upgrade the WR spot nor their admiration of Bryant’s considerable skills. Sleeper pick: Brian Price.

13. San Francisco 49ers: Bryan Bulaga, T, Iowa.

This is lower than you’ll see Bulaga in most mocks, but this incarnation leans more heavily on defense. The Niners would be very happy for the board to play out like this.

14. Seattle Seahawks (from DEN): C.J. Spiller, RB, Clemson.

The gamble that he will still be around pays off for Pete Carroll. They could probably trade back a few spots and still get him, nudge nudge wink wink say no more...

15. New York Giants: Joe Haden, CB, Florida.

Consider this Haden’s draft floor and also consider it Plan C for the Giants, who would prefer McClain or Thomas. That doesn’t mean they won’t be happy making this pick, however.

16. Tennessee Titans: Derrick Morgan, DE, Georgia Tech.

This is the lowest I’ve projected the talented Morgan, who (allegedly) lacks the dynamic element to his game that makes teams above here froth at the mouth. He fills the Kyle Vanden Bosch void with pretty close similarity.

17. San Francisco 49ers (from CAR): Kyle Wilson, CB, Boise State.

Wilson is gaining momentum as teams study his physical play and strong character. He’s a great fit, both athletically and personality, with what Mike Singletary is building in SF.

18. Pittsburgh Steelers: Maurkice Pouncey, C, Florida.

The top interior lineman in the draft with the ability to play G or C. Pittsburgh knows they need to improve the up-the-gut run blocking, which was nonexistent sans Kemoeatu last year.

19. Atlanta Falcons: Jason Pierre-Paul, DE, South Florida.

His athletic potential is too tantalizing to fall much further than this, and the Falcons are known to be looking for that quality in their defensive front.

20. Houston Texans: Ryan Mathews, RB, Fresno State.

One person who would know tells me this would be a “slam dunk no-brainer” if all the above DBs are gone.

21. Cincinnati Bengals: Rob Gronkowski, TE, Arizona.

There is risk involved with his back injury, but the Bengals have never been a risk-averse organization. Consider this Dez Bryant’s draft floor, but Demaryius Thomas wouldn’t be a surprise either.

22. New England Patriots: Sergio Kindle, LB, Texas.

Rangy pass rusher with a sound football IQ and big-game experience--i.e. precisely what the Patriots need. As always, forecasting the Patriots draft is a near impossibility as they have traded 85% of their original draft slots over the last 3 drafts. Those 3 second-rounders give them ample ammo to move way up from here. I’m not saying, just saying...

23. Green Bay Packers: Charles Brown, T, USC.

His long arms and freakishly big hands allow the converted TE to compensate for a lack of strength, and the Packers sorely need new blood at tackle.

24. Philadelphia Eagles: Sean Weatherspoon, LB, Missouri.

Philly is another team that’s awful difficult to forecast with their proclivity for trading and their ample ammo of draft picks. Spoon fits the bill as a tackling machine with great range for a LB corps that was decimated by injuries last year.

25. Baltimore Ravens: Kareem Jackson, CB, Alabama.

Late draft-board riser with great fit and instincts that isn’t afraid to tackle, Jackson fits nicely with the Ravens secondary that faces an increasingly pass-happy AFC North. This could be Tim Tebow or Colt McCoy’s landing spot via a trade.

26. Arizona Cardinals: Colt McCoy, QB, Texas.

This is another example of slotting a player to a spot much more than it is a player going to a specific team. I seriously doubt Arizona would take him, but this is the range where McCoy is going to go, and my intention with mock drafts is to place the player with the slot, not necessarily the team. Sleeper pick for ARI: Jerry Hughes.

27. Dallas Cowboys: Jared Odrick, DT, Penn State.

He’ll capably play end in the 3-4 front with some versatility, and he’ll anchor against the run better than most ends in this class.

28. San Diego Chargers: Jahvid Best, RB, California.

The Chargers are solidly in the RB market and Best has potential to make this slot look very low. I wouldn’t rule out Jerry Hughes or Brian Price in this slot, either.

29. New York Jets: Nate Allen, S, South Florida.

He would inherit Kerry Rhodes’ role as playmaking safety, with the hope that he’s more positionally responsible, which is his rep coming from USF. Jared Odrick would be hard to pass here.

30. Minnesota Vikings: Patrick Robinson, CB, Florida State.

I’m not a buyer into the rampant speculation that the Vikings must draft a DB here, but Robinson will fit as the BPA on some boards here.

31. Indianapolis Colts: Tim Tebow, QB, Florida.

This one is a test to see if people actually read any comments or if they just blindly look at the team and player and run with that. So I’ll put it in bold: Tim Tebow will not be an Indianapolis Colt. This pick is forecasting Tebow’s draft slot, not the Colts pick. If you send me an email or quote this pick somewhere as Tebow being a Colt, I will publicly ridicule your lack of reading skills.

32. New Orleans Saints: Brandon Graham, DE, Michigan. This is much lower than I’ve previously projected Graham, but his awkward size makes him a more difficult sell above here than I previously anticipated. The Saints should be very happy to get such a value and talent with this pick, even after signing Alex Brown.

Sorry you don't like the pick but I think Saffold would be very good value at that point. He can play either guard or tackle. I know they have Lilja and Waters but if Albert goes down, you have Richardson playing LT. Good luck with that. I don't know if Lilja can play right guard but a line up of Albert, Saffold, Weigman, Lilja and O'Callahan would be an improvement over last year. I know Colin Brown is listed as a right guard but I have my doubts.

Colt McCoy would be an awful fit for Arizona's offense. I don't know why they'd take him in any round.

If I am following this guy's projected board (sans Clausen), I'd much rather go:

1. Berry
2. Mays
2b. Dunlap
3. Damian Williams
4. Linval Joseph

All in all, I like who he has us taking. Berry would be fantastic, Demaryius @ 2a would be as well. Gresham @ 50?????

Um, where's Golden Tate? Fail.

I would bet he's pretty embarrassed about missing him. My guess is that he thinks he's a 2nd rounder but just failed to slot him. All in all, it's a pretty good mock, save for Tate, Dunlap @ 65. If Dunlap were there at 50, I'd take a good long look.

Jermaine Gresham at 50 seems like a miss as well, I would have thought he'd go about 10 picks higher at worst.


If things fell that way, I'd go:

1. Berry

2a. Daryl Washington/Taylor Mays

2b. Eric Norwood

3. Damian Williams

4. Linval Joseph

Considering his monumental miss on Tate, who I guess he thinks is a 2nd rounder, I'd go:
1 Berry
2a Tate
2b Cam Thomas
3 Austen Lane
4 Skelton

Austen Lane doesn't fit this defense at all.

He may or he may not, but Lane is going to be a stud. He was 220 pounds when he arrived at Murray State. He's 270ish now. At 6'6", he's could continue to fill out and play DE or slim down and play OLB. He's been interviewed and said that several teams have talked to him about playing OLB, including the scout from the Pats.

He's been playing heavier to hold up against the run, but I think his natural weight is around 260-265.

Bottom line is he had 11 sacks as a senior and 19.5 tackles for loss after going 12 sacks & 22 TFL as a junior. We need someone that can get to the QB.

With the way this guy has it playing out, the best pass rusher on the board at the point we'd pick in the 3rd was Lane.
Dekoda Watson would be an option as well as Koa Misi.

04-10-2010, 12:57 PM

Nice. I'd be happy with that. I do find it funny that, according to you, Lane doesn't fit but Dunlap does. Same size, though Dunlap had a quicker 40, their short shuttle was equal.

Most of these guys are projected to go at least one round ahead of where he still has them available. If they really were still there, I’d be very pleased with a draft like this…

1st round-FS Eric Berry - (Mike Brown)
2nd round-WR Golden Tate, projected 1st round pick – (Bobby Wade)
2nd round-OT Bruce Campbell, projected 1st round pick – (Ike Ndukwe)
3rd round-LB Koa Misi, projected 2nd round pick. - (?)
4th round-NT Linval Joseph, projected 2nd or 3rd round pick. – (Derek Lokey)
5th round-TE Dennis Pitta, projected 3rd round pick – (Sean Ryan)
5th round-C Eric Olsen, projected 4th or 5th round pick. – (Rudy Niswanger)
5th round-ILB Brandon Spikes, projected 3rd or 4th round pick. – (Cory Mays would be backup)


More likely possibility for KC...

1st round-FS Eric Berry
2nd round-WR Damian Williams
2nd round-OT Jared Veldheer
3rd round-NT Linval Joseph
4th round-LB Roddrick Muckelroy
5th round-C Eric Olsen
5th round-ILB Jamar Chaney
5th round-TE Fendi Onobun

I know they have Lilja and Waters but if Albert goes down, you have Richardson playing LT. Good luck with that. I don't know if Lilja can play right guard but a line up of Albert, Saffold, Weigman, Lilja and O'Callahan would be an improvement over last year. I know Colin Brown is listed as a right guard but I have my doubts.

If they are looking at Saffold as a multi-positional type of player on the offensive line, they would actually do better in using a fourth rounder on Zane Beadles, Marshall Newhouse or Ciron Black than Saffold in the second. Saffold had a really great East/West showing that ran him up the mocks, but the three aforementioned players have no less than three years of All-Conference/All-America/Walter Camp level play at the left tackle slot but being projected inside at the next level. That being said, I wouldn't mind it too much if they considered Saffold as a LT pick at the top of the second looking to move Albert insided to LG at that point. Then they can pick up a multi-positional guy such as those mentioned above and a quality center and the line is set.

Something like:

1. Eric Berry, S; UT
2. Roger Saffold, OT; IU
2. Cam Thomas, NT; NC
3. Matt Tennant, C; BC
4. Brandon Spikes, ILB; UF
5. Ciron Black, OT; LSU
5. Jeremy Williams, WR; Tulane
5. Roddrick Muckelroy, OLB; Texas

Free agents:
Brandon James, PR/KR; UF
Kerry Meier, WR; KU
Kade Weston, NT; UG
Joe Pawelek, ILB; Baylor
Jan Jorgenson, DE/OLB; BYU
Austin English, DE/OLB; OU
Jim Cordle, OL; OSU
Dominique Harris, SS; Temple
Chris McGaha, WR; ASU
Staffon Johnson, RB; USC
Eric Cook, OL; New Mexico
