CBS sports, walter football, and nfl.com to get the player rankings. so if you dont agree on player projection dont look at me

1 Owamagbe Odighizuwa, DE, 6-3 #257 UCLA - I know the hip thing but I don't know how you pass on him

Provides consistent disruption from right defensive end position. Scouts love pass rushers with long arms and the 6-foot-3, 270-pound Odighizuwa has that trait, despite limited sack numbers. Combination of burst and power to beat tackles to the outside, and has shown good balance and agility to spin back inside.

2 Jeremy Langford, RB,6 #205, Mich State

Langford posted the fastest 40 time (4.42 seconds) in the RB group, displaying excellent acceleration and burst
Langford is a workhorse type with a hard-nosed, no-nonsense style of running the ball, getting stronger as the game progresses. Has a little shake-and-bake to him to extend runs, keeping his legs pumping through contact
Langford really shines in areas where most young backs struggle like pass protection, reliability in the screen game and also the ability to get stronger and better as the game goes on.
Langford finished the 2013 season with 1,422 rushing yards and 18 rushing scores

3 91 Eric Rowe, CB, 6-1 #200 Utah

4 127 Kenny Bell, WR, 6-1 #200 Nebraska

5 163 Derrick Lott, DT, 6 - 4 #315

Lott possesses the length and strength to remain inside at defensive tackle in a standard 4-3 alignment
Lott transferred to UT-Chattanooga in search of more playing time and quickly established himself as a force at the FCS level, recording 57 tackles, four tackles for loss and two sacks in his first season there.
Lott was granted a rare sixth year of eligibility and responded with 41 tackles, including a career-high 13.5 tackles for loss and six sacks.

7a 236 Laurence Gibson, OT, 6 - 6 #305 Virginia Tech

7b 243 Marcus Rush, OLB, 6 - 2 #245 Michgan State

Four-year letterwinner started a school-record 53 games at defensive end (previous record: 49, held by OG Joel Foreman and LB Eric Gordon) . . . recorded 163 career tackles, including 37.5 for losses (183 yards) and 18.5 sacks (131 yards) . . . finished his career ranked among MSU's all-time leaders in forced fumbles (tied for sixth with five), tackles for loss yardage (seventh with 183 yards), tackles for loss (seventh with 37.5), sacks (seventh with 18.5) and sack yardage (eighth with 131) . . . also had 16 career pass break-ups and two blocked kicks .



UDFA'S

Chris Bonner QB, 6 - 6 #240 CSU-Pueblo
Terrell Watson, RB, 6 - 1 #230 Azusa Pacific
Jaxon Shipley, WR/KR , 6-1 #200 Texas
Al Bond, OG, 6 -4 #305 Memphis
Jermauria Rasco, DE. 6-4 #259 LSU
Tyeler Davison, DT, 6-2 #320 Fresno Srare

And if OO is gone I think you have to look at P Smith then either best CB - or even a DT

then that shoots my mock all to heck

That 2nd round choice is a good April Fool's joke. Well done.

You like Langford a little more than I do...he probably wouldn't be an option in my eyes until the 3rd at earliest.

Other than that I think it's a pretty damn good mock

You could probably switch the 2nd round pick with the 3rd.

Although if this pre-draft hype and climb continues he Rowe Might be taken in the first (I have seen a mock going to the eagles in the first already).

no matter where Rowe goes...I would think Langford is probably a 3rd rounder but who knows...it is all opinion and speculation at this point.

I did like how you through in the OT from VT in the later rounds since they have shown interest in him.

I don't think Davison will go undrafted. If he does, I will be surprise.

You can spell Owamagbe Odighizuwa but not April?

Langford did well in the underwear Olympics but I still see him as a late 3rd early 4th especially how RBs are valued.

Hey.... I know his girlfriend. Quite well :p . No this is not an April Fool's joke. I would sit back and have some good laughs if that were to happen.

well nobody thinks he can play

Weaknesses
Not a physical runner. Broke very few tackles this year and churned out pedestrian yards after contact. Gains extra yards by sliding laterally out of tackles rather than leg churn. Lacks commitment between the tackles. Seems content to absorb hits rather than dish them out. Scouts believe he will be a "bouncer" in pros, looking to take runs outside prematurely. Has burst, but not as much wiggle as anticipated.
Sources Tell Us
"I don't see him as a starter. I think he can be a backup or compete as a third down back, but he doesn't run tough enough to be able to project him as a starter in really any scheme." -- NFC East scout
NFL Comparison
Donald Brown
Bottom Line
Langford showed improvement from 2013 to 2014, but he doesn't accelerate through contact and will usually get what is blocked. Without an ability to maximize his yards with each carry, teams could peg him as a "committee back" with an ability to play on third downs


then you get this

Jeremy Langford, RB, Michigan State: Despite posting back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons at Michigan State, the former Spartan has flown under the radar for most of the pre-draft process. That should change after Langford posted the fastest 40 time (4.42 seconds) in the RB group, displaying excellent acceleration and burst. The surprising showing in this sprint event will force scouts to take an extended look at Langford's tape to see if they overlooked his second gear while watching him carry Sparty's offense as the feature back. If the evaluators see Langford's surprising speed and burst show up on tape, the former Spartan will move up the board as a potential sleeper pick in war rooms around the league.

so who knows
