The fanspeak On The Clock draft simulator updated they're composite big board so I wanted to do another draft to see how the players fell. Before the update I knew some of the players that fell to round seven wouldn't be there so it didn't seem too realistic. This draft was done with the On The Clock Composite big board that was updated yesterday and NFL mock teams needs settings.
58: R2P26 S Chauncey Gardner-Johnson
Abram and Rapp were both gone at 58. He seems like a player that could probably be interchangeable deep or in the box with good range. NFL.com has him ranked the second highest safety in the draft.
Strengths
I think they would give him consideration at 58 so he would definitely be in play at 90. He kind of reminds me Zack Martin or Travis Fredrick, not a flashy player but a reliable productive player that is solid for ten years.
Strengths
I wasn't sure if we had interest in him but according to Ian Rapoport we had a private workout with him. He would be the athletic route running type of tight end to challenge down the middle with a chance to develop into a Jay Novcek type blocker.
Strengths
Assuming They're good with his character concerns Hill would be good value one day three. NFL.com has him ranked 78 overall and the eighth best DT right behind Dre'mont Jones and ahead of Willis, Wren, and Saunders.
Strengths
The Cowboys have had multiple meetings with him including a private workout. When you watch his highlights you can tell he's a hard runner with a burst. Armstead Temple was also there but I haven't seen any Cowboys connections with him. When Dane Brugler took Bryce Love in his mock draft we speculated that he would be good value if he fell to the fifth and he did in this simulation. It was tempting not to pick him and place him on PUP for a year. I read that his medicals checked out at the combine.
Strengths
241: R7P27 CB Blace Brown
The Gardner-Johnson and Allen Picks precluded the two corners Williams and Johnson but Richard has shown interest in Brown and he was available here.
