rlon Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 (edited) Definitely too early for a mock. The allure of the simulator draws me back. I know people seem to prefer limited threads be started, and when they are, that they go on forever Indulging myself with this mock, as the Steelers bid goodbye to Najee Harris and Cam Heyward after the season…sad but it’s a business. 14. Deone Walker DT Kentucky 46. Tyler Onyedim DT Iowa State 78. Damien Martinez RB Miami (FL) 111. Quinn Ewers QB Texas 143. Joshua Gray OG Oregon State 146. Jordan Burch Edge Oregon 196.Ricky White WR UNLV 200.Kobe Savage SOregon 201.Azareye'h Thomas CB Florida State 206. Jalen Travis OT Princeton Edited June 9 by rlon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jebrick Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 Deone Walker is found eating children for him to fall outside the top 5 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only DTs with that concern are pluggers, and Walker is no plugger. He’s more Albert Haynesworth or John Henderson than Casey Hampton or Vince Wilfork. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s more Albert Haynesworth or John Henderson than Casey Hampton or Vince Wilfork. I kinda like taller interior guys too. I think something they bring to a defense that’s really nice is it’s easier for them to keep the LB’s clean. My concern comes down to pad level. Hampton and Wilfork’s shorter stature really helped them here, but they were never able to be better pass rushers like Haynesworth or Henderson because they had issues getting unlatched from OL.

mwalker Posted June 11 Share Posted June 11 Currently, I prefer M.Graham to D.Walker, but willing to have his play change my mind. He's so huge, he should be dominating even more (Walker). M.Starks could absolutely blow up and be dominant. I do think this could be a big DL draft for us (depending on what happens with Wilson and Fields, of course).

Magnus-Viktor Posted July 2 Share Posted July 2 I did one: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/mockdraft 14. Mason Graham, DT, Michigan 45. Xavier Nwankpa, S, Iowa 78. Nicholas Singleton, RB, Penn State 111. Yahya Black, DT, Iowa 143. Riley Leonard, QB, Duke 146. Colbie Young, WR, Georgia 195. Will Howard, QB, Ohio State 199. Tyler Van Dyke, QB, Wisconsin 200. Xavier Restrepo, WR, Miami 205. DJ Giddens, RB, K State I know I ignored OL completely. That'll have to be addressed in FA. I just didn't see the value there at any of the picks. The only time I really considered it was in the 3rd with Tate Ratledge. I considered Landon Jackson in 2 over Xavier, and Zy Alexander (CB) in 3 over Singleton. The first time I started one of these, I got that behemoth Deone Walker in 1. This time Graham is the one that slid. I prefer 6'6" to 6'3", but I also prefer 318 to 348.
