4/25 Mock

[tm1119]

Round 1- Byron Jones CB U Conn

Round 2- TRADE! This is where everyone expects us to take a RB with guys like Abdullah and Duke on the board. Not our guys so we trade down with Cleveland who is armed with a total of 10 picks. We trade #60 for picks 77, 111, and 189.

Round 3- Mike Davis RB S Carolina-
Za'Darius Smith DE Kentucky

Round 4- Darius Philon DT Arkansas
Tyrus Thompson OT Oklahoma

Round 5- Gerod Holliman FS Louisville

Round 6- Antwan Goodley WR/KR Baylor

Round 7- Deion Barnes DE Penn State
Gabe Martin LB Bowling Green

I was hoping for two impact starters out of this draft, not sure this fills the bill. I see a starting corner and a bunch of rotation players and special teamers.

Ouch. That would make for a very rough weekend for me...

In your opinion, who would be an impact starter available at 60?

I would absolutely hate it if we traded out of 2 nd rd, that's where the meat of this draft is IMO.

I think a plug and play guard like Cann or Tomlnson will be there (not as sold on Free as many are). Also Michael Bennett or Stephone Anthony for example. Really I think a trade out of the first with the Rams for their second is more likely than a second round trade down.

I think trying to split hairs between the 60th ranked player and the 77th ranked player is extremely difficult. A lot of those guys become interchangeable. Obviously it's hard to predict in a mock if someone falls, but unless someone unexpected is available I like the idea of adding more picks. Plus I wanted to grab a RB and I felt I got the best available 1 for our scheme while also adding picks.
