*****OFFICIAL 2017 Saccopoo NFL Mock Draft Thread*****

[RealSNR]

START DATE AND TIME: March 20th, noon central

RULES:

Spoiler!

1. 12 hours for each pick. Unless it's on the weekends.....then your clock can go **** itself.

2. Make sure that you have PMs turned on. After you make your selection, PM the next person up to let them know that they're on the clock. If you know that you aren't going to be on and able to make your selection, PM a list of your desired picks (in the order you want them) to someone else. You can send those to me if you want since I won't be in control of any teams. If you miss your pick, you will be skipped and you'll have to make your pick as soon as you can. If you miss two consecutive picks, you lose your teams.

3. Format your selections as such: *Insert team name* selects Player Name, POS, School. Make sure they are bolded so that people can see them. You can add pictures and explanations if you'd like but they aren't required.

4. Do a search of the thread before you pick to make sure that the player hasn't been selected. If you pick a player that has already been drafted, you face the wrath of the entire thread and you'll have to correct it. So don't make a pick and then leave for 14 hours. Stick around and make sure that you didn't **** up.

[RealSNR]

Vikings have been ignoring this position for awhile because their idiot GM fell in love with a bunch of other random crap. Luckily there are plenty of decent potential CBs left that could make a difference one day for a team. Former receiver, so he's kind of a Marcus Cooper-type prospect. Let's hope he's better than that sack of crap.

Minnesota selects Nate Hairston, CB, Temple

[CleveSteve]

Could I have drafted a wide receiver that didn't beat his dog on video? Yes. But when you can draft Josh Gordon in the seventh round, you draft Josh Gordon in the seventh round.

The Carolina Panthers select Ishmael Zamora, WR, Baylor

[RealSNR]

Here's Minnesota's draft.

Ya'll can suck on my fatties. I did what had to be ****ing done, and I don't regret it. We still managed to pick up a lot of other quality talent along the way, and at least we're covered now when it comes to the fat up front that we need.

Our only missed draft need was punter. Jeff Locke left in free agency. But once again- **** punters.

2.48- Dan Feeney, OG, Indiana
3.79- Isaac Asiata, OG, Utah
3.86- Ahkello Witherspoon, CB, Colorado
4.120- Elijah Qualls, DT, Washington
4.128- Marlon Mack, RB, South Florida
5.160- Tedric Thompson, S, Colorado
6.199- Antony Auclair, TE, Laval (Canada)
7.232- Nate Hairston, CB, Temple

[CleveSteve]

I think that's really well done for Minnesota if the plan is to kick Boone or Remmers out to RT.

Asiata is good RT/RG depth. Until Remmers proves he's a pile of crap.

[BossChief]

I'm happy with the guys I nabbed for Philadelphia.

Dalvin Cook, RB, Florida State
Adoree Jackson, CB, USC
Chris Wormley, DL, Michigan
Corn Elder, CB, Miami
Jermaine Eluemunor, OT, Texas A&M
Noah Brown, WR, Ohio St
Nathan Gerry, S, Nebraska
Chase Rollier, OL, Wyoming

[O.city]

Guys, sorry for the delay. I was in the ER with our young one last night for like 6 hours and haven't slept much today. I'll try to get around tonpicking, but if someone wants to go ahead and throe a player up there for me, that's fine.

[CleveSteve]

Sorry to hear that O. That sucks. Clock is off on the weekend. Hope everything is ok

[staylor26]

My Saints draft is done

1. John Ross, WR, Washington
1. Takarist McKinley, DE/OLB, UCLA
2. Garret Conley, CB, Ohio St
3. Bucky Hodges, TE, Va Tech
3. Joe Mathis, DE/OLB, Washington
6. Josh Harvey-Clemons, S, Louisville
7. T.J. Logan, RB, UNC

Along with year 2 Rankins and Bell, I think the 4 defensive players I got could be enough to see some significant improvement on the Saints D. Ross, Hodges, and Logan gives the offense some cheap weapons to help squeeze the most out of the final years of the Brees era.

[DJ's left nut]

49ers draft is done:

1) Marshon Lattimore, CB, Ohio State
2) Christian McCaffrey, RB, Stanford (34)
3) Zay Jones, WR, Eastern Carolina (66)
4) Tarell Basham, DE/OLB, Ohio (109)
4) Kendall Beckwith, ILB, LSU (143 - comp)
5) Brad Kaaya, QB - Miami (146)
5) Julie'n Davenport, OT, Buffalo (161; via Was)
6) Zane Gonzales, K, ASU (198; via Bal)
6) Shelton Gibson, WR, WVU (202; via Den)
7) David Sharpe, G, Florida (219)


This was never intended to be a transformational draft; it was a foundational one. It was my effort at getting the team set up to move forward through next year's draft. I tried to put some weapons around the '18 QB choice while solidifying some holes in the defense.

The 49ers badly needed a #1 CB and they got the best guy in the draft. Ideally they'll find a trade partner with this pick but without trades, this is the way to go. They got two weapons that fit Shanahan's offense extremely well in McAffrey and Jones (and Carlos Hyde works as a primary power back). Gibson should even find some good space to work with late.

Basham and Beckwith are production vs. measurements guys; they were just good football players in college and right now that's a steady baseline that the 49ers could really use. Kaaya and Gonzalez are attempts at cost-control for future cap cleaning. They can provide steady, reliable placeholders for cheap as the 49ers continue their efforts to wipe the slate over the coming years.

On the OL, Davenport has genuine LT skills and there aren't a lot of guys in this draft you can say that about. He may not find the technique, but most of the T prospects in this draft can't play LT even with ideal fundamentals. Davenport has the length and athleticism to play on that island if you can polish him up. I love grabbing him in the 5th. Sharpe has uncommon mass and that's difficult to deal with on the interior. If he can get his play strength up via smarter get-off (keeping his pads down), he can be a credible interior lineman/swing player.

I had a plan for this draft, I stuck to it and I think it worked out. This won't help them win 5 more games in '17 and that's precisely the point - they can play most of these guys next year, get them some live fire and still be in a position in '18 to pick a QB in the top 5 and take those weapons (and experience) to the next level.

This would be a pretty outstanding draft for SF, IMO. Kaaya and Gonzalez are picks that may cost me some 'points' but I think they make sense for the squad.

Cleve go ahead and make a pick for me you PMD me. Let's go for it.

[CleveSteve]

With the 234th pick in the 2017 CP Mock Draft,

The Los Angeles Rams select DJ Jones, NT, Ole Miss

Rams need a one gap nose tackle for Wade Phillips new 3-4 in LA and Aaron Donald would be ruined having to kick all the way inside to do it. Jones is a very athletic fat guy with some pretty good production and is an ideal fit for this particular role. Donald gets to continue to play 3 technique defensive end in the asymmetric 3-4 run by Phillips, with Brockers at the 5T end.

[O.city]

Thanks man. I apologize for being away for the pick. Hopefully things are settling down and I should be good to go with my last pick

[chiefscafan]

Hmm going back in forth with this next pick
