Final Mock Draft (3 rounds, 13 trades altogether, first round explanations)

[paul-mac]

1.      Cincinnati Bengals: Joe Burrow, QB, LSU [] Never say never but it seems like the Bengals are ready to make Burrow their guy.

2.      Washington Redskins: Chase Young, DE/OLB, Ohio State [] I don’t think the Skins will trade down unless they get an RG3 level haul for the pick, that’s how much they love Chase Young.

3.      Detroit Lions: Jeff Okudah, CB, Ohio State [] If Detroit stay at 3 it’s a toss up between Okudah and Derrick Brown. I think Okudah will win out.

4.      New York Giants: Tristan Wirfs, OT, Iowa [] I think the Giants will take their top rated tackle. Gettleman loves an athletic hogmolly.

5.      Miami Dolphins: Tua Tagovialoa, QB, Alabama [] There’s a Tua faction and a Herbert faction in the Dolphins virtual war room. I think the Tua guys will win this one out.

6.      Los Angeles Chargers: Andrew Thomas, OT, Georgia [] Thomas completes the Chargers OL with Bryan Bulaga moving to right tackle.

7.      Carolina Panthers: Derrick Brown, DT, Auburn [] I expect the Panthers to end up with whichever player the Lions pass on at 3.

8.      Miami Dolphins (f/ARI): Jedrick Wills, OT, Alabama [Arizona trade 8 to Miami for 18 and 39] If Miami take Tua and his college blindside OT escapes the top 6, I wouldn’t be surprised if they work the phones to pair them up.

9.      Atlanta Falcons (f/JAX): CJ Henderson, CB, Florida [Jacksonville trade 9 and 157 to Atlanta for 16 and 47] Atlanta is understood to want to trade up for a corner.

10.   Cleveland Browns: Isaiah Simmons, LB, Clemson [] Perfect scheme fit to stop Lamar Jackson.

11.   New York Jets: Mekhi Becton, OT, Louisville [] Last of the elite OT prospects.

12.   Las Vegas Raiders: CeeDee Lamb, WR, Oklahoma [] Strong rumours that Mayock loves this guy.

13.   Denver Broncos (f/IND through SF): Jerry Jeudy, WR, Alabama [San Francisco trade 13 to Denver for 15, 118 and a 2021 3rd rounder] Denver trades up to secure their preferred WR.

14.   Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Javon Kinlaw, DT, South Carolina [] With the top 4 tackles gone, the Bucs take BPA and acquire Trent Williams with their second rounder.

15.   San Francisco 49ers (f/DEN): Henry Ruggs III, WR, Alabama [] Perfect fit for the Shanahan offense.

16.   Jacksonville Jaguars (f/ATL): Kristian Fulton, CB, LSU [] Jacksonville rumoured to be high on Fulton, so they trade back and grab him.

17.   Dallas Cowboys: Xavier McKinney, SS, Alabama [] Dallas desperately need a safety who can hit.

18.   Arizona Cardinals (f/PIT through MIA): K'Lavon Chaisson, DE/OLB, LSU [] The birds don’t have a second rounder so trading back and nabbing a running mate for Chandler Jones makes sense.

19.   Las Vegas Raiders (f/CHI): AJ Terrell, CB, Clemson [] Mayock needs a corner and loves Clemson players.

20.   Jacksonville Jaguars (f/LAR): Ross Blacklock, DT, TCU [] Bit of a reach but I think the NFL will be high on this guy.

21.   Philadelphia Eagles: Justin Jefferson, WR, LSU [] Heavily linked with the Eagles.

22.   Minnesota Vikings (f/BUF): Yetur Gross-Matos, DE/OLB, Penn State [] Replacement for Everson Griffen.

23.   Baltimore Ravens (f/NE): Kenneth Murray, ILB, Oklahoma [New England trade 23 to Baltimore for 28 and 106] Baltimore leapfrog the Saints to grab their CJ Mosley replacement.

24.   Washington Redskins (f/NO): Josh Jones, OT, Houston [New Orleans trade 24 to Washington for 45, 108 and their 2021 second round pick] Redskins trade Trent Williams for a second rounder and then package it with a 4th and next year’s 2nd to get his replacement

25.   Minnesota Vikings: Jaylon Johnson, CB, Utah [] Johnson looks like a lock to go in the first round.

26.   Miami Dolphins (f/HOU): Austin Jackson, OT, USC [] Miami double up at OT to provide maximum protection for Tua.

27.   Green Bay Packers (f/SEA): Patrick Queen, LB, LSU [Seattle trade 27 to Green Bay for 30 and 126] These two teams seem to trade every year.

28.   New England Patriots (f/BAL): Justin Herbert, QB, Oregon [] If Herbert falls this far, Josh McDaniels will be on zoom begging Belichick to make it happen

29.   Tennessee Titans: Isaiah Wilson, OT, Georgia [] Perfect fit for the big right tackle to fit in opposite Taylor Lewan

30.   Indianapolis Colts (f/GB through SEA): Denzel Mims, WR, Baylor [Seattle trade 30 to Indianapolis for 34 and 122] Colts grab a weapon for Rivers

31.   Dallas Cowboys (f/SF): Cesar Ruiz, C, Michigan [San Francisco trade 31 to Dallas for 51 and 82] Dallas leapfrog KC to get their Travis Frederick replacement

32.   Kansas City Chiefs: Jeff Gladney, CB, TCU [] KC could do with a press man corner.   Round 2

33. Cincinnati Bengals: AJ Epenesa, DE , Iowa []

34. Cleveland Browns (f/WAS through IND & SEA): Ezra Cleveland, OT, Boise State [Seattle trade 34 and 122 to Cleveland for 41 and 97]

Pretty good for Miami.

Pats fan  Started out great with the trade but after that a complete disaster . You do understand that the Pats have like 52 holes in the roster out of 53!

61. New England Patriots (f/TEN): Zack Baun, OLB, Wisconsin [Tennessee trade 61 to New England for 87, 100 and 139]

You take a young QB when they have one? Everyone thinks the Pats will take a QB. I don't however in this scenario what great way to get additional picks. They trade pick 28 for a boat load. Now they have 100 draft choices and  if the Stidman stinks they have great opportunity with next years QB draft class. Now if Stid plays well you just wasted a 1st RD pick.

I like the first 2 rounds for Cleveland.  I would love for Simmons to fall to the Browns.  If we take Ezra Cleveland in the 2nd round, we have to either get LB or S in the 3rd round not a Guard..  Based on this mock draft I see them taking Safety Burgess from Utah or LB Willie Gay from Mississippi St.

Great draft for Dolphins.
