Have we all just decided Niang's our guy? I mean I'm guilty of ignoring the position too in every mock draft i do, but after each one I'm thinking "...huh, what do we do about RT?"

I dont know if hes "OUR" guy but he was definitely Veachs guy. The more i think about it they might not be ready to give up on him yet. They got Taylor for LT type money so i think hes penciled in there. I could see them bringing in a freeland type a little later, but im starting to cool on the idea of a round 1 guy.

Will be interesting if one of Jones (not likely) or Harrison (much more likely) drops to 31. Would you be ok with paying Taylor LT $ and keeping him at RT? I think you could given that your new LT is on a rookie contract for several years. Would be nice to not have to worry about tackles for 4 yrs...

It does leave me thinking it's the biggest question. Is Niang as good as Wylie? Probably. Is he as durable...maybe not. Freeland would be fine to pick up later and develop but man we're relying on Niang to stay healthy and that seems a gamble.

Let's just play offense?

1st - WR Jaylin Hyatt
2nd - RB Jamyr Gibbs [Trade Up = #63 + CEH]
3rd - WR AT Perry
4th - WR Jonathan Mingo
4th - OT Wayne Morris
5th - OL Braeden Daniels
6th - DE V Fehoko
6th - DL K Coburn
7th - DE T Incoom
7th - FB Hunter Luepke

Future WRs:
Toney = X-factor
Hyatt = Hardman improvement
Moore = Reliable slot
Perry = MVS replacement
Mingo = JuJu replacement
Ross = Outside talent

I don't hate it.

I really don't want Zay Flowers in the 1st. Call me stupid I guess but I see too much similarity to Skyy Moore and a bunch of WRs in this draft where the value will be better. Sure, he's a bit more polished but I don't think that's enough for me to want him there. Not when you can get other guys like Tre Tucker, Xavier Gipson, Xavier Smith, Keylon Stokes, Josh Downs, and Tyler Scott at a discount.

If we go WR in the first, I think it needs to be a different type of player that can better line up anywhere.

IMO Zay has a little more spark than Moore, more burst, twitch, athleticism, and potential for dynamic plays...I'd say he's in between Moore and Toney.

We're going to agree to disagree on most of this. I think Flowers is more agile but that's about it. Their speed is pretty much identical (Flowers 0.01 slower... big shit). Flowers is solidly 10 lbs smaller. Flowers has a rather significantly lesser 10-yard split so the burst would be more in Moore's favor. The difference in vertical is made up for by the difference in height so that's a push. Flowers has smaller hands. I really don't think you're getting anything much different. Maybe a little more quickness at the route break at the sacrifice of a little length.

I think the viewpoint is largely a byproduct of Moore not doing much as a rookie coupled with some recency bias. I'm just not all in for a WR that's pretty much the same dude, especially not in the first. Would I like another guy like that on the roster? Sure, but I like alot of day 3 talent there. Tre Tucker and Xavier Gipson are my top guys but there are quite a few I'd like.

I'd rather push the chips in on a different skill set from what we have.

4 rounds, 5 picks, no trades

31 Will McDonald IV EDGE | Iowa State - concerns of size were not enough pass on him at 31. Anton was still on the board and I seriously thought of taking him there, but I took a chance for Berg being there at 63 as I like Berg just as much as Anton on either the left or right side.

63 Matthew Bergeron OT | Syracuse - It fell the way I was hoping here and I would think Berg could possibly shore up the RT spot. And if need be could possibly move to LT if the need arises in a year or 2.

95 Rashee Rice WR | SMU - If this guy drop to 95 and we don't take him I am concerned someone is on Tranq in the organization. No brainer at 95.

122 Jonathan Mingo WR | Mississippi - After pick 95 with what was left on the board I was thinking either DL or WR. I saw that Karl Brooks, Ojomo at DT and KJ Henry at EDGE was still available on the board and thought for sure that one of them would fall to 134. So I wanted to answer the WR corps early enough where the further down we go the questions even become bigger with the prospects. Mingo was there. Done.

134 Moro Ojomo DL | Texas - TBH Ojomo would have been my 3rd option here with my thinking. I really wanted Karl Brooks or KJ Henry, 2 guys that I think may be real steals beyond the top guys. I guess it just wasn't meant to be.

It's disappointing that these mocks haven't really adjusted where the players will fall.

Meh well. Still nice to have all the options.

TDN needs to get their mock machine up and running though.

6 Rnds, 8 picks, traded 31 and 122 for 36 + 69

1. Adebawore E/Northwestern
2. M. Smith Dl/Michigan
3. Duncan OT/Maryland
4. Hutchinson WR/Iowa St
5. J Bennet CB/Maryland
6. R. Johnson RB/Texas
7. Zavala G/NC State
8. Whyle TE/Cincinnati

Getting closer to a good solution, but no SEC selections almost guarantees disappointment!
