Humble_Beast Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 (edited) I took today and tomorrow off to get the 2nd vaccine, so with my spare time I made a new mock draft lol. Let's get to business, I did a PFN Mock Draft simulator, and signed Karl Joseph FS in free agency. Thoughts? I'm all ready for the draft! 17. Caleb Farley CB, Virginia Tech - I went BPA. this guy has elite ceiling, he could be a Elite CB1(injuries are scary). I take that risk and don't draft scary. He is a baller, he could also play FS if he needed him there. Could slide Arnette to slot I guess, I go BPA https://www.nfl.com/prospects/caleb-farley/32004641-5212-2365-40b4-9ee5bfc899a7 Alternative: Parsons LB, Surtain CB, Phillips DE, Paye DE, JOK LB, Horn CB, 48. Gregory Rousseau DL, Miami - he's too raw for a 1st rounder, but I'll take him all day as a 2nd. He has all the traits, is young, and and good athlete. He would have be coached up but has star potential. He can help with interior pressure as a rookie. Needs to be coached up on better technique. We have a legit chance to add to solid prospects to our work defense. Levi and Barmore were drafted before the pick, or I would have went after them. FROM THE U https://www.profootballnetwork.com/gregory-rousseau-nfl-draft-player-profile-miami-edge/ https://www.nfl.com/prospects/greg-rousseau/3200524f-5561-7685-7a57-00bd6b5af7ea Alternative: Phillips DE, ODEYINGBO EDGE, Payton Turner DE, Boogie Basham DE, Ojulari Edge, Oweh Edge, Tyron Edge, C Rumph Edge, Ossai Edge, J Davis LB, Holland S, J Johnson S, Molden S, Moehrig S 79. Spencer Brown OT, Northern Iowa - really like him as a prospect. I was torn between him and Walker Little, but can't go wrong. He can pair with Kolton Miller to take on the tackle spot for awhile. 3rd seems to be a sweet spot in a stacked tackle class. We attack OL here https://www.nfl.com/prospects/spencer-brown/32004252-4f69-0310-bf53-14b54a182555 Alternatives: Walker Little T, FORSYTHE T, Radunz T, Eichenberg T, Radunz T, Leatherwood T, Mayfield T, J Hudson T, A Banks G, W Davis G, T Smith G 80. Jay Tufele IDL, USC- early in the draft process I liked him as a late first rounder. He is an elite athlete, who demanded a double team in college. I like him as NT in the pros, and he can actually be a NT who generates some pressure. We could save money by letting Hankins walk, could provide depth as a rookie. 3rd is a sweet spot for DT, attack the defense with more talent. YET AGAIN https://www.nfl.com/prospects/jay-tufele/32005455-4610-3822-e3e9-dc3d8ed22b4d Alternative: Shelvin, McNeil, M Wilson, D Nixon, B Brown, K Twyman, M Williams DT,Holland S, J Johnson S, Molden S, Holland S, J Johnson S, Molden S, R Grant FS, McGrone LB, Browning LB, Cox LB, Surratt LB, Moses LB, Werner LB, Snowden LB, S Wade FS, R Rochel CB, K Joseph CB, A Robinson CB, Adebo CB, A Thomas CB, Deablo LB 121. Deonte Brown IOL, Alabama - attacking the trenches again with another solid prospect. Good might be a shortt term answer at RG, Brown mauled people in SEC. a few different options for an interior prospect. Brown dropped in this mock and likely to go in late 3rd-4th but could be a Gabe long term replacement. https://www.nfl.com/prospects/deonte-brown/32004252-4f39-0022-a3c9-a9993b5cf6ac https://thedraftnetwork.com/player/deonte-brown Alternatives: J Carmen G, T Smith G, B Cleveland G, Leatherwood G, R Newman G, J Hocker G, D Moore G, C Ashley T/G, J Bell T, S Wade FS, K Green G, Hucherson G, R Jones G 162. Caden Sterns S, Texas - I prolly get roasted for waiting to draft a Safety. I really like Stearns on day 3. I just would rather go BPA to help the defense and then take care of the trenches over reaching for a need. Stearns has range, and was highly regarded at one time. He battles injuries and play a bit inconsistent. I'll take a shot on him Alternatives: R Lecounte S, MUKUAMU S(think he be a good convert), J Wiggins S, A Washington S, T Thompson S, Uphoff S, P Ford S, S Wade FS, J Smith Edge, DIMUKEJE edge, ST-JUSTE CB/S, B Thompson S https://www.nfl.com/prospects/caden-sterns/32005354-4556-9819-8045-ee676cf6baa3 167. Kary Vincent Jr. S, LSU - Bradley is known for developing late DBs. I think Vincent makes for a good FS convert. He was solid at LSU but teams question if he is a CB on the next level, he has experience playing FS in college. I think Heath/Joseph can hold it down for a year with a better scheme and pass rush, and then let Stearns and Vincent battle to be FS of the future. Would be 2deep at safety too. https://www.nfl.com/prospects/kary-vincent-jr/32005649-4e43-5447-4127-1ba2d0b8cf99 Alternatives: R Lecounte S, MUKUAMU S(think he be a good convert), J Wiggins S, A Washington S, T Thompson S, Uphoff S, P Ford S, R Blakenship S, Gillespie S, 200. Josh Ball OT, Marshall - We would currently only have 3 OTs: Miller, 3rd Rounder, Parker. Parker is in the last year of his deal, and probably walk for a chance to start somewhere in 2022. Josh Bell could provide depth as a developmental Swing tackle. He actually has starting LT potential, but has character concerns. Can't go wrong with OL depth. went with a good prospect, willingly to go BPA with the last draft spot. https://www.nfl.com/prospects/josh-ball/32004241-4c50-1948-d003-0543c0165523 Alternative: Hamilcar Edge, Garrett Edge, C Ashley T/G, J Patterson RB, J Jefferson RB, R Stevenson RB, J Hawkins RB, C Hubbard RB, Josh Palmer WR, Cornell Powell WR, Josh Imatorbhebhe WR, SMITH-MARSETTE WR, Tutu Atwell WR, Fehoko WR, Newman QB, Mond QB, E Smith DE, D Hodge Edge, C Garrett Edge, UDFA: I'll pick 5 positions/prospects we can target, half a practice squad Felipe Franks QB - nice developmental QB, has all the traits and some talent. Not a perfect prospect at all, which is why I think will go Undraft and could maybe develop into a QB2 Stevie Scott RB- Big Physical RB, has good size, one cut back with a mean streak. Could find a spot, always interesting undrafted Rbs James Darden WR- he's small but has EXPLOSIVE SPEED. Deep WR class, going be a few good WR go Undrafted. I like Darden because he is skilled, and has return ability. Could push Zay Jones for 6th wideout or make PS Pro Wells TE- former basketball player worth a shot as a development TE depth, Carrier probably in his last season. Looking for a developmental TE with athletic ability Mustafa Johnson/MARQUISS SPENCER DL- valley kid, might go undrafted due to size. Has some skill to rush the passer, and Is an athlete. I also like Spencer alot https://www.nfl.com/prospects/mustafa-johnson/32004a4f-4853-7305-362f-b005190e9bc0 https://www.nfl.com/prospects/grant-stuard/32005354-5501-4150-49bd-b5e4a0e6f4f3 https://thedraftnetwork.com/player/lorenzo-neal/SNdRHKpO50 https://thedraftnetwork.com/mockDraft/view updated depth chart QB Carr Mariota Franks Sloter/Peterman RB Jacobs Drake Scott Riddick/Richard FB Ingold WR Ruggs Edwards Ateman WR Brown Jones Quinn Slot Renfrow Snead Darden TE Waller Moreau Carrier Bowers/Wells LT Miller Parker Seymour LG Richie Simpson C James Martin Magnuson RG Good Brown Cotton RT Brown Ball Jones-Smith DE Ferell Rousseau Dickerson G Green UT Jefferson Thomas Hurst Vickers/Scott NT Hankins Irving Tufele Philon DE Crosby Nassib Key Johnson WLB Littleton Morrow MLB Kwiatkoski White Bilal SLB Yannick Muse Onwualu CB Mullen Johnson Nixon CB Farley Lawson Slot Arnette Robertson Siverand FS Joseph Stearns Vincent R Gaulden SS Abram Heath Leavitt K Carlson Eberle Edited April 9, 2021 by Humble_Beast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t see us going cb in the first. we play in a division with Mahomes, Herbert and Broncos might get a stud. We need DBS, and Farley has all pro potential. The DT class sucks and would be a reach, we addressed edge rush in free agency. I would consider LB like Parsons, or JOK.

Keeps a general realism to the picks and who some targets could be if the chosen player is already gone and how folks value them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big_palooka Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Mock with a bunch of alternative players every round. By your own admission you don't watch college football and it shows in the lack of conviction on a single player. One thing to have 1 or 2 alternates. But this has the feel of throw everyone out there so I can say "I had him in my mock draft" and "he was my guy" which is very on brand. Without all the alternatives, I'd give it a C. The two biggest needs are FS and RT and neither is adequately addressed here with a player who can start day 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I listed alternatives with alot of names as a big board of where I value the prospects. read up on alot of guys yesterday. I'm usually not a guy to brag about the past. btw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYRaider Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Caleb Farley at #17 is a huge risk with the back injury concerns and I doubt that Rosseau makes it all the way to #48. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we take a small school devy OT and free safety in the 5th round. This draft is just too boom or bust. If Rousseau and Farley bust (injuries are a mega concern with him, wouldn't touch him in the 1st) , you lose your job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BayRaider Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Love Farley. Only corner I like in the 1st. But the injury scares the heck out of me as well. Not saying I wouldn’t pull the trigger on him, but I just don’t know if I’d be able to do it. The Raiders over the years have made me so Anti-Risk in the 1st lmao.

The fact that he had back surgery last off-season, sat out the entire season, and recently had another back surgery is a major red flag.
