Let me guess …

(Reviews your picks)

It’s an interior offensive lineman?

Wow

****OFFICIAL 2022 Saccopoo CP Mock Draft Thread****
 

Just giving you shit. I love the Cine pick as much as I dislike LB in round one.

Well now we don't need him with the Reid signing lol

One of my sneaky favorite edge rushers. A little small but plays a lot bigger than his size/weight. Vikings could line him up at end or as a LB... he's got a ton of range.

Minnesota Vikings select DeAngelo Malone, EDGE, Western Kentucky

Numbers game.

So many fast athletic LBs in this draft. Several are going to get pushed into the 3rd.

100% agree that some good talent at the position will fall and that I think different teams will have a wide variation in their rankings of said LBs. This class is pretty deep. There are another 2 LBs left on the board that I happily would have taken in this spot… and more quality fall back options later.

Though I would argue that collectively this group of LBs will go a bit higher than they are here. I think as a group (myself very much included) we have over represented/drafted a few positions so far which has pushed some guys down that I personally don’t think will fall this far. Typically the 6th true LB is off the board by the middle of the second round (~pick 50) and this has been true at least the last 10-15 years.

This draft class with the first wave of COVID Super Seniors from college is so darn unique though. It’s unprecedented and I don’t think for a minute that I, any of you, any media draft experts, or even any GMs can accurately predict how the cards will this year. I’m definitely talking out my ass!

I don’t know that I’ve ever seen such varying opinions/analysis on the top 10 let alone the rest of rounds 1-3. What it lacks in star power it makes up for in depth.

Just posting because I teased Tampa about this yesterday…

I was reviewing recent mocks yesterday on the NFL mock draft database, and the latest from Walter Football had the Chiefs selecting a G (Salyer from UGA).

In the second round.

Hilarious that a guy who gets paid to do that for a living would make that blind of a pick.

NY Giants select Mario Goodrich, Cornerback, Clemson.

Giants look to add coverage for the scheme Wink Martindale wishes to employ.

The Indianapolis Colts select Alec Pierce, WR, Cincinnati

A tool for the Colts new QB. Pierce can fly down the field and his catch radius is superb. 'F it, Pierce is down there somewhere' is a nice play to have sometimes.

I presume we'll pause and wait in the event we get to the end of the 3rd without comp picks announced? Is that also why the Poles pick isn't noted on the board?

First off, what the **** is the NFL doing? They’ve never taken this long to announce comp picks.

But to answer your question, I’ve even wondering what we should do for a while, and that’s probably the best option. And yea, I left it out because I was waiting for the official announcement.

You would think they’d announce it before the official start to the league year.

We're cruising. I would take a break at the end and wait until comp picks are announced. Plus it gives us more time to deal with trades that come up.

Sounds like a plan.

While we’re waiting, my Eagles draft so far:

1. Jermaine Johnson
1. Jameson Williams
1. Trent McDuffie
2. Christian Harris
3. Nick Cross

What a haul, specifically defensively.

Comp picks are out.

Give me my extra 3rd need more LBs

Wheres my comp picks at?

Comp picks are up guys!

Only 6 more picks and i just get to keep up my streak of MURDERING this draft for both of
my squads. Oh yes, we are going to continue killing it.

Oh. That’s cute.

1. Evan Neal
1. Travon Walker
2. Jahan Dotson
2. Andrew Booth
3. Tariq Woolen

You sweet summer child, you…

You ****ing assholes should try doing it with only two picks. Then try and murder that shit.

In hindsight, Booth should’ve been the Chiefs 1st pick in this mock.

Naw not sold on Booth

Cameron Thomas should have been the 1st round pick for the Chiefs.

Try doing it with no 1st rounder.

Sweet we get 2 comp thirds for NO.

The New England Patriots select Kyle Phillips, WR, UCLA.


While not my personal favorite right here, Bill Belichick loves this kid and I have to try to be realistic. Having an outstanding slot player that can also slip into the Z role like Wes Welker and Julian Edelman is something Bill values highly. I think Bill will pull the trigger early on Phillps to get that back.

His stop-to-max speed ability is otherworldly. His routes and hands are good. He has good elusiveness against the first wave. There's not much not to like in terms of a slot player. He doesn't have the blow-your-doors-off speed or a 40 inch vertical, but it's not going to matter much.

The Raiders are feeling confident with this selection. They don't imagine he'll be a bust and metaphorically die in a horrifying helicopter crash.

The Las Vegas Raiders select Coby Bryant, CB, Cincinnati

The Arizona Cardinals select Romeo Doubs, WR, Nevada.

Kyler Murray is meh but he at least needs weapons.

The Jones family is announced, and several awkward moments of silence pass as neither Stephen nor Jerry Jones appears.

Eventually, a harried-looking Mike McCarthy waddles onto the stage.

"Um, yeah, so we need tough guys, guys who aren't affected by things like a run-down clock or a run-down coach or a bevy of wasted opportunities. So, yeah..."

The Dallas Cowboys select Chad Muma, LB, Wyoming.

Man - WR got brutally massacred this round, didn't it?

Would be another pretty tough break for the Chiefs. So far the only 'luck' we've seen is Cine falling. The 1st and 3rd rounds were pretty nasty. I'll end up doing him a solid w/ my 3rd round pick but there's not a hell of a lot more damage I could've done to him.

The only position that's kept some of its depth is LB and...well...yeah, maybe don't take one of those in the 1st.

I'd probably trade up to grab Eric Pierce.

In fairness, my Bucs draft has been pretty vanilla.

But I really like getting Zion and Leal where I got them. Very little to complain about on either of these drafts so far. A couple grunts here and there when my top guy got taken just a few spots before me, but just like this pick, I've had at least one strong backup option every time.

I don't really care who the Titans take here because even if they grab the guy off the top of my list, I'm equally content with my #2 guy. The only frustration it might create is that if neither goes, I can potentially get my #1 for the Bucs and still see my #2 fall back to the Jets.

Who dat? Alec?

He gone. Or were you saying you'd have traded up sooner to make the move?

I think the problem was the run just hit so damn hard. That's really where you can get in trouble. You're sitting there with 6 WRs on your board and 20 picks left thinking "well obviously one of those guys will fall" and then 5 go within 10 picks and before you know it, you're boned.

Shit..yeah...Alec Pierce. No idea where I got Eric from.

If I'm the Chiefs...I'd be trading up to get Pierce. But I also probably would have taken Thomas in the 1st and possibly Woolen in the 2nd over Cine at this point.

In the actual draft there will be more oline and even tight ends selected. We've been pretty skill position heavy though.

Both realistic possibilities really.

Though I wonder if Woolen has the physicality Spags looks for

There’s still a WR on the board that I’d be more than happy with late in the 3rd.

Yeah, the 2nd tier of OL has really been left alone for the most part. And with the TEs, I think a lot of people are looking at the same thing I am - just hard to tell them apart so you just move along.

One would hope an NFL scouting department wouldn't take that approach...

I see 3 I could live with, one of whom I like more than the others but man he's little.

Yeah tight end this year is very weird. No clear cut guys but some who might be good.

The Tennessee Titans select Abe Lucas, OT, Wazzu

King Henry needs pawns so he can bulldoze the lighter LBs, S, and CBs. The Tits also gave up a lot of sacks. Lucas can start at RT then swing to left if needed.

Ezukanma?

I'm not sure how many mocks Tamba Berry ran before this, but this is one of the reasons I'm so staunchly anti-LB in Round 1.

If you take anything but DB, DE, or WR in round 1, the options get pretty, pretty slim by the end of round 3 unless you move up.

So if you run a straight draft and take a player at a position of less obvious need, things get dire in the third.

He was already picked with a different spelling

Yep. I noticed and changed my pick to Abe Lucas.

Bucs run to the board while the clock ticks into negative figures and select....

....Nah, wouldn't do that to ya.

Fire when ready, Gloucester.

No problem was just trying to let you know

Go ahead, already edited my pick.

Okay, now the Bucs come to the board.

I mean if they're gonna let the whole damn RB room walk, I guess this is a pretty obvious selection (even if it also seems they've let...pretty much everyone else walk)

The Bucs select: Kenneth Walker III, RB - MSU

Kid can really run the football. There's actually a fair amount of Fournette in him in that the passing game will be a work in progress for him but something I think he'll pick up in relatively short order as he's a good, powerful athlete who's willing to be physical. So neither Pass pro nor pass catching should remain a problem for him.

No, that’s the guy that I would be praying makes it to 103 if I went elsewhere at 94 though.

I'd really like to get the Jets a TE, but with the Jets being pretty lousy, I really just have to approach it from a pure talent first perspective.

The problem is I can't rank these damn TEs at all so I struggle to even figure out what their talent level is. Meanwhile I feel like I have an alright handle on several other positions that I CAN lock into a 'BPA' sort of approach.

So I know I'm messing it up - there's probably a TE I should've taken by now. I just can't get a firm answer so I don't make a decision at all.

They did sign Uzomah....so you don't have to really hurry or reach.

Really pretty curious why this one wasn't Walker III.

I thought for sure you'd grab him for Buffalo here. Really nice combination of need/value for them. Their attempts at building a running game have been scattershot at best w/ the Singletary/Moss duo.

Hmm.....missed that.

Guessing they hadn't done it yet when we were up at the beginning of the round because it sure seemed like a pretty pressing issue at the time.

Obliged sir.

I drafted Isaiah Ford last pick silly

The list says that was for Houston.

I is confused

Because Billay ****ed up. He was picking for the Texans in that spot…not the Bills.

The Green Bay Packers select Brian Asamoah II, ILB, Oklahoma.

I wonder if he's related to Jon.

That’s what I though.

Houston got the pick from NOLA.

Oh whoops

I have a dude I want that I don't think you guys will like

Might as well continue the trend with this draft.

Lmao damn

Only picks you could make at this point that I'd be like "no" are for an interior offensive lineman, a LB, or a S.

The San Francisco 49ers select Jamaree Salyer, IOL, Georgia

Cincinnati Bengals select John Ridgeway, Defensive Tackle, Arkansas.

Bengals add a run stuffer who can make a difference right away.

Why would we hate that pick? So he's got great advanced stats production with low sack totals? It's the freakin 3rd round. This is exactly the time to take a player like that.

I don't like the scouting reports about how he lacks bend. I do like a high motor for a pass rusher though and that's one of the main things I read about him.

Yea, I really don’t have a problem with Sanders here.

There are a couple guys with much better athletic profiles that I would prefer to Sanders, but the guy I would’ve taken is just a damn good football player with versatility. He can play SDE and slide inside on passing downs.

Meh. Tamba Hali supposedly lacked bend, too.

I'm with you. You're not going to find amazing players with zero red flags in the late 3rd round. You pick and choose the faults and question marks that come with each guy. Sanders is stellar enough in other areas to make up for one or two perceived technique weaknesses.
