big9erfan Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Brian Billick with his current mock today. My favorite "talking head" mock. He has Edmunds, Smith and Ward all going in the top 8 ... which leaves us Nelson! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forge Posted April 21, 2018 Author Share Posted April 21, 2018 Not a major shock, but Key revealed the reason he was away from the team and all that good jazz was that he was in rehab. Kudos for being upfront about it, I guess...but man, with the failure of Randy Gregory, the never ending, ongoing plight of Aldon Smith (not to mention Key's abysmal workouts), he's in for a long wait this week.

I'd be willing to take a shot on him at the back of the fourth if we haven't gone DE by then. But yeah, it's not good for him right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sherm Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 1. Cleveland — Sam Darnold, QB, USC 2. N.Y. Giants — Saquon Barkley, RB, Penn State 3. N.Y. Jets — Josh Rosen, QB, UCLA 4. Cleveland — Bradley Chubb, DE, N.C. State 5. Denver — Josh Allen, QB, Wyoming 6. Indianapolis — Quenton Nelson, G, Notre Dame 7. Tampa Bay — Denzel Ward, CB, Ohio State 8. Chicago — Roquan Smith, LB, Georgia 9. San Francisco — Derwin James, S, Florida State Even before Ward was making the move back to CB we needed to add S help after not re-signing Reid. James is one of the few elite talents in this draft. He can impact the gm in coverage or in the box. Round 2 (pick 27) – 59th overall (via New Orleans) — Billy Price, OG/C, Ohio State Too much value to pass up. Can compete day 1 as G or backup C Round 3 (pick 6) – 70th overall — Carlton Davis, CB, Auburn Long physical CB that has skill set to become a top CB in the NFL Round 3 (pick 10) – 74th overall (via Chicago) — Josh Sweat, OLB, Florida State Has the athletic ability to excel at the Leo position. Round 4 (pick 28) – 128th overall (via Pittsburgh) — DaeSean Hamilton, WR, Penn State Savvy route runner who wins with crisp routes. Perfect fit to groom behind Garcon. Round 5 (pick 6) – 143rd overall (via Jets) — Brandon Parker, T, North Carolina A&T Might not last this long but has the footwork and arm length to develop as an NFL LT. Round 6 (pick 10) – 184th overall — Joel Iyiegbuniwe, LB, Western Kentucky Added depth to our LB core Round 7 (pick 9) – 227th overall — Leon Jacobs, LB, Wisconsin More LB depth Round 7 (pick 22) – 240th overall (via Kansas City) — Jaylen Samuels, RB/TE/H-Back, N.C. State Not sure where his draft value is but I do know he's an offensive weapon for any team that drafts him ---------------------------------------------------------- Figured I'd throw a mock out there. I don't expect it to be popular so no worries. Also no I didn't forget Baker Mayfield in the top 8. Didn't want to make my own thread so I'll put it here.

I think it's a pretty good mock you have there. Would really surprise me if Carlton Davis falls to # 70, but all the better if so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forge Posted April 21, 2018 Author Share Posted April 21, 2018 Posted in the draft forum Quote NFL Network's Mike Mayock reports teams have injury concerns with Boise State LB Leighton Vander Esch. Vander Esch's neck injury has removed him from some draft boards. He also had a pinched C-spine nerve and LCL sprain at Boise State. This has been out there, but it confirms teams have flagged Vander Esch's medicals. Vander Esch was given a passing grade for his neck issue at the Combine.

oldman9er Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 20 minutes ago, PapaShogun said: Foye Oluokun in the seventh? Yay or nay? Sure, why not. Athletic freak of a "moneybacker"... exactly the type of player to take a wild swing at late in the draft. Quote Oluokun, who stands 6-foot-1, 230 pounds at linebacker for the defending Ivy League champions, posted times in the 40-yard dash and the 20-yard shuttle that would have put him second in the NFL Combine for linebackers. His 40-yard dash time of 4.48 seconds would have been second only to the highly publicized run by Central Florida’s Shaquem Griffin (4.38), and third would have been Georgia’s Roquan Smith (4.51). Oluokun’s 20-yard shuttle time — which measures quickness and change of direction — was 4.12 seconds and would have placed second with linebackers only behind Clemson’s Dorian O’Daniel (4.07). Both Oluokun’s vertical jump of 37 inches (would have been 6th at combine for LBs) and his broad jump of 10 feet, 3 inches (tied for 4th) would have been Top 10 marks. Not only was he the talk of the Pro Day held at Columbia’s indoor facility, he would have turned heads in Indianapolis, too. Columbia University reported that 20 NFL teams and 33 total scouts were on hand for the Pro Day, which several attended because of the snowstorm hitting the New York City area currently. http://fcsfootball.com/fcs-pro-days-yale-lb-foyesade-oluokun-posts-combine-like-numbers/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
