Here is my first Mock from three weeks ago:
https://cowboyszone.com/threads/carters-mock-1-0.471696/
In this mock we know the exact Comp Picks and Draft Position for those picks. Here we go. No Trades.
Round 1 Pick 10
Patrick Surtain II, CB, Alabama, 6'1, 205 Lbs
Patrick Surtain II is a highly touted cornerback for the Crimson Tide. A former 5-star recruit and coveted player, he’s been a three-year starter for Alabama. The son of former Miami Dolphins and Kansas City Chiefs corner Patrick Surtain, he has the DNA and football genes of a former successful NFL player. The junior cornerback's length, discipline, and mild-mannered playing style are the best attributes of his game. Surtain II's deep speed will be the biggest question that he will need to answer on the next level as there have been some occurrences of where he’s surrendered throws into the deeper portions of the field.
I think the Broncos take Farley who i picked in my first mock so we go with Surtain.
Round 2 Pick 44
Tommy Togiai, DT, Ohio State, 6'2, 300 lbs
Ohio State defensive tackle Tommy Togiai projects as a high-level run defender along the defensive interior in the NFL. Togiai offers natural leverage with his build and frame, which allows him to sit under the pads of blockers with consistency. That leverage advantage is paired with nifty hand usage and really good lateral mobility for his stature—giving Togiai a prominent presence along the line of scrimmage on both interior runs and plays that are strung out into the numbers. He’s not the longest interior defender, but he’ll still find plenty of success shucking blocks with his hand usage and feel for blocks; even falling back onto his short-area mobility to out-maneuver blockers when he’s hit with leveraged down blocks or pin and pull. Togiai’s ceiling as a pass rusher isn’t great, but he does have enough quickness to threaten gaps in single-gap penetration opportunities. Ideally, he’s an early-down defender who cedes reps to more dynamic threats and designated pass rushers at the pro level. With that said, he has the feel of a starting interior defender from day 1.
Tufele and Barmore are the two higher rated DTs and i think neither will last to Pick 44.
DT is the biggest need alongside Corner so here we go.
Round 3 Pick 75
Dylan Moses, LB, Alabama, 6'3 240 lbs
Moses is a well-experienced linebacker who has spent time at all three linebacker spots. A hyper-athletic and agile second-level player, he’s a fast-flowing prospect that gobbles up opportunities in space. Moses has an athletic and chiseled upper body that contains extended limbs, but contains plenty of definition on them from top to bottom. He has broad shoulders and there’s still plenty of room for growth on his physique overall. He has plenty of body armor to withstand constant contact and the physical asking price of the position combined with his physical mindset. He's a supremely unique athlete at the position. He has true sideline-to-sideline range and it’s rare to see him outran. When able to diagnose plays cleanly, Moses flies downhill with reckless abandon. When having exposure to anyone with the opposite color jersey on, he’s looking to embarrass them in any way possible. He's terrific at keeping his shoulders square to the line of scrimmage, but when alleyways open, Moses is not hesitant with taking the slight crease and flying through it. He has above-average instincts combined with having what seems like a ball radar with his head.
His ideal fit is SAM which we def need
Round 3 Pick 99 (Comp)
Deonte Brown, OG, Alabama. 6'4, 340 lbs
Starting in 24 of 46 career games, Brown possesses a beefy and wide-bodied frame with a well above average amount of strength at the point of attack. Physically, he is an effective run blocker with lots of attractive skills. Aggressive in the running game, he shows high strength levels and awareness. In Alabama’s downhill run scheme, he’s allowed to stay on track and road grade any target that’s directly in front of him. Easily able to move defenders and dislodging them out of gaps, he’s best suited in a man/power-based blocking scheme. As a pass protector, he’s comfortable with playing within his parameters and is effective in slide or man protections. When in single block situations, he has the foot quickness in order to match and mirror the movements of interior defenders. Having an anchor that’s nearly impossible to knock over, his wide frame also enables him to engulf and cover up rushers. Brown is able to negate interior pressure effectively.
I picked him in my first mock too but in the 4th and i highly doubt he lasts that long.
Round 4 Pick 111
Ronnie Perkins, DE, Oklahoma, 6'3, 255 lbs
Perkins looks like he weighs a lot more than what he's listed at, but he carries it extremely well. He has experience from both the stand-up position and with his hand in the dirt. He has the speed to threaten the near hip of offensive tackles, but flattening and turning the corner can be hit or miss. Possessing very powerful hands, it’s easy to see the effect that they have on matchups as he’s consistently able to jolt them back suddenly after coming into contact with him. His unique power and strength help him to remain clean as a run defender. Snatch-pull and club-rip are two moves that he often likes to use and both have been highly effective for him throughout his career. Continuing to add more to his repertoire will only help him continue his development going forward. Right now, Perkins doesn’t have an apparent counter move that he likes to execute when blockers have an immediate answer to his first plan of attack. When unable to utilize initial moves, he can struggle to find that next move to still have an effect on plays. As a run defender, he can be wildly undisciplined with chasing pulling blockers or with chasing running backs on zone-read plays. When seeing that pullers who originally started on his side are traveling to the other, he immediately chased them, which often left the backside void of contain responsibilities. Playing more disciplined and demonstrating more patience on running plays is needed.
We need more people at DE, especially since we likely lose a lof of guys this offseason.
Round 4 Pick 135 (Comp)
Brady Christensen, OT, BYU, 6'6 , 300 lbs
Brady Christensen aligned at left tackle for the Cougars offense helping QB Zach Wilson have a Heisman like Season. He plays the game with average overall athleticism, with regards to his agility and movement skills. He does a good job handling edge defenders in their conference. However, his athletic limitations may be an issue at the next level. Although he aligns at left tackle, he could be better suited at right tackle while also adding value at guard. He plays with the level of football intelligence required to play multiple positions. He has redeeming value in his size, strength, and football IQ, but would likely struggle against athletic rushers in the NFL if he remains at left tackle.
Ideal Role: Backup swing offensive tackle.
Scheme Fit: An offense that implores a power running scheme.
Round 5 Pick 175 (Comp)
Reed Blankenship, S, Middle Tennessee, 6'1, 200 lbs
This dude might have covered more grass than any other safety in college football — he's always on the move. Carrying deep third coverage, triggering from single high to drive into the box, scraping from the backside to attack the run, he's all over the field and impossible to miss — just follow the football. He's got an impressive level of versatility and took a big step forward in his run fits and consistency in 2019 from the games I studied — only took one bad fill vs. FAU to give up last line of defense and that included a big game vs. Michigan. He's got good ball skills and silky smooth redirection ability to flip and carry or drive on throws in the middle of the field — he feathers multiple routes in hi-low and split leverage well and has baited a few throws along the way. He's a strong tackler and has provided ample heavy hits as a hard fill defender against the run.
Round 6 Pick 190
Bobby Brown III, DT, Texas A&M, 6'4 320 lbs
Brown III is built like a brick house. He possesses a very mature body that helps him maintain leverage as a run defender on the interior. He’s proven to anchor well and has the lower body strength to stand pat at the point of attack. Brown III does everything that you can ask a run defender to do on the interior of the first level. While he isn’t a big sack artist, he has the ability to create pressure strictly off of gaining penetration with his natural strength. Playing mainly the 1-technique, he has gained lots of experience against double teams. He’s routinely able to use his mature frame, power, and short area quickness to create quick wins along the interior. While his value mainly shows up pre-third down, his presence in the middle causes constant problems for offenses when his motor constantly runs.
Round 7 Pick 233
Kellen Mond, QB, Texas A&M, 6'3, 220 lbs
A slim, but adequately built quarterback prospect who possesses lots of velocity with throws when able to step into them. High elbow, but snappy type of release, he has the torque and enthusiasm behind passes that enables him to be very efficient in the short-to-intermediate areas. Mond always displays high levels of poise as he often shows that he’s never in a hurry. From his mechanics to how he deals with pressure surrounding him, he remains under control and focused on the task at hand. One of the most battled tested throwers in the country as he takes an excruciating amount of hits throughout games, but continues to battle and make throws. The often occurrence of shots to his body has helped him better deal with pressure from all directions inside the pocket. Mainly a half field read thrower that can get the ball out quickly and efficiently when on schedule. While barely scratching the level of an above average athlete, he has enough athleticism to get himself out of trouble and gain hidden yardage when breaking outside of the pocket as well. Not a “make you miss” type of threat, but Mond compensates that for how well he throws on the run. Strictly a shotgun/pistol quarterback, who’s had all of his experience there.
