Lots of great players in the draft. I'm pumped we have two 2nd rounders and Carl isn't making the selections. 2nd rounders should be staples on the team-Carl botched it for two decades.
|
Right on, BCF. Looking at the Top 3 left on my cheat sheet, OTW is going to be able to add another stud to the Chiefs @ 50.
|
Panthers might as well take Tebow here. Moore is going to suck, and they reallly need a QB. Tebow can sit for a year or 2.
|
Love both Sfeihc and Hammas' latest picks. I was really torn between Bowman and Washington for Tampa and was hoping to see Wooten fall a little bit, love him in a 3-4.

The Panthers literally have holes everywhere. There are so many need areas on this team on both sides of the ball, that they can pretty much go BPA. Steve Smith has been screaming for a playmaker opposite him, and Dwayne Jarrett isn't it. That said, this selection is pretty easy for me. The Panthers select Demaryius Thomas, WR, Georgia Tech. Yeah, Yeah, he has a foot injury, but all signs point to him being ready to go. The last time the Panthers selected a guy with a foot problem, it worked out OK (Jonathan Stewart). And, FWIW, I'd be on the horn trying to move DeAngelo for picks or help on the defensive side of the ball. In the real draft, I don't think Thomas will be around this long as I have a first round grade on him.
This may be looked at as a reach by some, but I think it is an absolute steal. This guy has the skillset to be a legitimate #1 receiver in the NFL. Freakish measureables and a huge YPC at GT. |
good pick Doomy, I think the panthers got a steal

Pest is moving today. The next pick probably won't come down for 2-3 hours just as an FYI.

I had 3 guys targeted for KC and they were all taken in the last 6 picks. |
The 49ers GM calls his next pick in from the Burger King drivethru. What? A GM has gotta eat!!
Takeo Spikes is ancient and Patrick Willis needs some help on the inside. I thought about going with a rushbacker but Lawson, Harralson and Brooks are decent. The San Francisco 49ers select Brandon Spikes , ILB, University of Florida |

OT Roger Safford from Indiana or NT Cam Thomas from North Carolina. Of course, I'm really digging Dexter McCluster for the slot, or Andre Roberts from The Citadel. Defensively, there are some really good corners still on the board -- but this is just a ridiculous year for corners. I also like Sapp, because unlike Mecca I think he can transition to the 3-4 very well. He played standing up at Clemson. I would trend towards Safford, Thomas, or Sapp, with McCluster getting "dark horse" status if I was Chiefs GM. But that's me. |
Blech. I really, really hate that pick for the Niners.
|
You've already won the draft.....I'm just coasting.

Man... you pass on Campbell and then you pick up Spikes. Yeeeeshhhh |
Direckshun is DEFINITELY going to have a stroke over this pick, some will like it, some will hate it.
I don't give a shit - I'm picking for value. I'm getting the 45th rated player on my board at pick 50. When Damian Williams, Daryl Washington and Demaryius Thomas went off the board in a span of 6 picks, it took 3 or my 4 targets for this pick. Next Man Up applies to GM's too. This pick gives KC one of, if not the best young secondaries in the NFL. He's versatile as ****, is as good an open field tackler as there is in this class, has solid instincts, is a huge hitter and in our opinion, has a shitton of upside. Kansas City selects: Chad Jones, SS, LSU Let the bitch-fest commence... |

Awesome pick OTWP. I've been dreaming of a Berry/Jones combo for awhile now. All of a sudden the D is starting look young, talented, and capable.
Love it. |
The Texans biggest weakness in 2009 (which cost them several games) was their short yardage package. This guy is the bruiser they need.
The Texans select: Jonathan Dwyer, RB, Georgia Tech |

:cuss::cuss::cuss::cuss: :cuss::cuss::cuss::cuss: :cuss::cuss::cuss::cuss: :cuss::cuss::cuss::cuss: Actually, I don't think that's a bad pick. He's the #2 guy on my big board at this point, and the #1 guy doesn't fit our defense. I'm not crazy about picking two safeties, but a hole in your roster is a hole in your roster, and Jones is just a natural. Seriously, you guys are going to love this kid if he ends up in Kansas City. I still would have gone with the trenches, but this isn't a bad pick. |
I think Washington has 1st round value.
|
Nice pick OTW. I debated drafting Chad Jones with my 2nd round pick.
|
OTW, my top 3 were Thomas, Spikes & Jones. Good job grabbing the talent in front of you.

With the 52nd selection in the 2010 NFL draft the Pittsburgh Steelers select:
Amari Spievey CB Iowa They need corners pretty bad and it just so happens that a pretty good one is still on the board. I know I am a little Iowa biased but the more I researched how needs match up to value, this is IMHO a pretty good pick and should start by years end. Plus, his uniform will stay very similar and that adds additional value! ROFL I heavily considered Misi, Allen, a couple 5-tecs and Sapp here, but overall I think this is a good choice. PM sent, Hamas you are on the board. |
Someone's going to have to tell me why Misi is anything more than a midrounder.
I know he had a good Senior Bowl, but Christ. |
If KCs first three picks play out like that we will have died and gone to heaven!
Very well done OTWP!!! |
I think the Pats would go with Andre Roberts here.
Anybody seen this kid at the Combine and Senior Bowl? Talk about an out-of-nowhere prospect that just looks phenomenal. I don't know if this kid learned to run routes at The Citadel or something but he looks like a great prospect. |

The Patriots have been able to address need and value at every pick in this draft. This continues with the following selection.
This player, although not having as much experience as others in the 3-4, did play in a 3-4 package this season. He profiles excellently as a 3-4 rush linebacker. He's smooth in space and quick around the edge, although there are some lingering concerns about his knee. Still, to get him in the bottom third of this round is good value, especially considering that he's been mocked and projected as an early-mid 2nd. The New England Patriots select Ricky Sapp, DE/OLB, Clemson The Cincinnati Bengals are on the clock. |
There's one player that I desperately want to fall to the Vikes at this point. In accord with the teams in front of me, I give him a 33% chance to do so.
|
Quote:
I was hoping Mecca would elaborate on why he didn't think Sapp would project very well to 3-4 rushbacker. He played standing up at Clemson and did very well. I think he's a lightning-fast rusher. |
At this point in the draft Sapp is a fine risk, but I think it's questionable if he can play standing, he is straight line speed fast yes.
But he is not overly fluid, his hips are a little stiff and his height plays into that. He also blew an ACL 2 years ago, so this is not a pick without risk. He does in some ways remind me a bit of Shawn Crable who NE also drafted, a tall athletic pass rusher who basically has never played. |
COME ON GUYS, GET WITH IT.
I REFUSE TO ALLOW YOUR SOCIAL LIVES TO INTERFERE WITH THIS MOCK. |
Whenever I pick, people will probably double take at my Packers pick.

I never would have guessed you to be such an MU homer. |
Ahaha, GB has no need to take a wide, I might have considered Thomas had he still been there because of how much I like him.

The Bengals need safety help. Chad Jones would have been the pick, but I don't have Reshard Jones far behind. I am very drunk and don't feel like doing a long writeup. Reshard Jones fills a need and is a very nice player. With this pick, the Bengals select, Reshard Jones, SS, Georgia.

GB is close to a SB team, with high picks if they get guys that can play it'll help them more.

My best player is still on the board.

I'm tied up the entire day today, so Mecca, please keep updating the board if you don't mind.
|
Reshad Jones is in no way a free safety.
|
Doomy is winning the battle for reached players.

Dude is like 230 lbs.
The one player that I'm wanting to fall to the Vikes is alive and well, still. I still give him a 1 in 3 chance to make it to me. |
Jason Peters is lazy and isn't worth the contract that he was given. So with their 2nd round pick the Eagles take a LT a smaller school. He won't have to start right away in his rookie season...so he'll have a year to get up to speed.
The Philadelphia Eagles select Jared Veldheer, OT, Hillsdale. |
Meh.
|
Cool my guy is still available. :)

Green Bay once again is a team that employs best player available strategy. I know many would assume CB would be the pick here but Woodson can still play, Harris and Lee will return from IR, Tramon Williams is still there not to mention they like Brandon Underwood who was a rookie last year and all that translates to 2nd round being a little high there..
So I'm going to take another player who can step in and contribute right away..with Atari Bigby's severe detriment to pass defense and really his ideal role being as a role playing box safety backup type and the outstanding value of this guy still being here... Green Bay selects, Morgan Burnett, S, Georgia Tech. |
Hey Mecca, could you update the thread starter to change the Reshad Jones position to SS? Thanks
|
Anymore we really should just put S, most safeties are either or these days.

Thanks for that pick though, I think Burnett is a borderline 1st rounder and I was wondering if one of the teams in front of me would take him.
|
Quote:
|
Burnetts before far more productive though, he also I think transitions to the pro game better.
http://www.draftcountdown.com/Scouti...an-Burnett.php Look at his stats, specifically 2008, that's elite production. This safety class being good drops him a bit but in many years this guy would go 1st round. |
In the first round, Baltimore got the "receiver" it wanted in a TE position. This pick, they get value in the much needed secondary, where there are question marks.
The Baltimore Ravens select Chris Cook, CB, University of Virgina. |
Come on deez don't pick my guy.

This might be a bit early, but the Cards GM likes this player and realizes that he won't be there in the third. And the needs along the D-line need to be addressed. Additionally, though there are serious needs at OT, there will be comparable talent to be had later. Thus, the Cardinals select:
Cam Thomas, NT, North Carolina |
I continue with my ass kicking of this mock. The Cowboys already selected a stud LT and I will continue with my true fan mock for them. But this case is warranted. The guard I am taking I believe is the best overall offensive lineman in this class. While Brown in the 1st is sort of a project, I think this selection will start right now for the Da Boys.
Dallas Cowboys select Jon Asamoah, G, Illinois. |
K, I need some time to figure this out. I was gonna take Cook here, with Cam Thomas as my backup pick. Both of those are out.
|
So I'm thinking a few things:
1. **** Direckshun 2. The Chargers need a replacement at CB, but they can play around a bit. It's not like an instant starter is needed here. 3. I'd like to see Gilyard for the Chargers because I like him a lot, but 2nd round is too early. May not happen, but oh well. 4. **** Direckshun. Which leads me to my pick. He's got all the tools to be able to succeed at the next level. A little raw, but he's still young and he works hard. I like the potential a lot here. The San Diego Chargers select Dominique Franks, CB, Oklahoma |
Without another pick till the end of the 5th round, it's time to address my need at pass rusher. This player had very good combine and followed it up with an impressive pro day so I'm happy he's still around. The New York Jets select Thaddeus Gibson, OLB, Ohio StatePosted via Mobile Device

All-in-all with the Meccadebacle and the traditional weekend slow down this has been quite the first week of the CP Mock. Good work to all the GM's.
