Trade back-jaguars
get there 2nd,4th,5th and 6th rounder

and the picks are

36-Kevin Johnson-cb-wake forest
Could been any1 of a few corners here,take your pck maybe johnson is here,byron jones,jalen collins,pj williams,marcus peters?There wll be more than few to choose from and 1 of the big 3-johnson,jones and peters will be available.Im taking 1 of them.

60-Michael Bennett-dt-ohio
This pick was the hardest of my draft.In the end i went for bennett.Why?Can you have enough talent on the dline?Plus i think they will find a way to get bennett and crawford playing alot of snaps together.If dlaw continues to improve and when Greg hardy gets to the see the field (probably week 3 or 4 following his appeal) then olines are n for a world of trouble

91-David Cobb-rb-Minnesota
Have to take a running back at some point in this draft and tbh i lov me some david cobb.They say he hasnt got that break away top end speed-didnt really matter last year with murray did it?And plus id take a little less break away speed but a guy who will run over a few of the eagles players over a guy like ajayi who although i like him i think he dances around behind the line a little to much for my liking.Cobb is a tough runner who would be a tone setter for the offence and has that ability to bounce of tackles.I like this guy alot

103-Frank Clark-de-michgan
Funnily enough clark was a guy i watched tape on back in november and liked-only to hear about his off field issues and write off.Those issues are sorted so we get a guy with alot of upside here who could easily start day1.Good value pick here

127-Jacorey Shepherd-cb-Kansas state
This guy is my favourite corner in the draft and i think could well become a mainstay in our secondary.Sure theres room for improvement but for a 4th rounder im going wild for this pick.

139-tyeler Davison-dt-Fresno state.
A true 1 tech kind of guy.Strong against the run,plays with good leverage (see his wrestling background) but knows where the qb is-see his 8 sacks this season as 3-4nt.This pick leads josh brent fighting terrel mclain and ken bishop to make the roster this year- a dt rotation of crawford,bennett,davison,mclain and bishop is where my money is at with chris whaley on the ps.

162-Jake Ryan-lb-michigan
I loved this player heading into the draft lat year but he stayed in college.Could easily man the mike or sam much like hitchens.Gives us good depth and options in lb corpse

180-Ty Montgomery-wr-stanford
Depth for the wr situation which is looking thin at present

236-Chris Mager-cb/fs-texas state
Good strong tackler,physical player-so would come in and contribute on special teams day 1.Given his physicality id like to see him try at fs and see how he developes here

243-Tray Walker-cb-texas southern
More of a pick on who i think the fo are targeting than 1 of my own.

So my mocks are finished for 2015,im pretty happy with where i ended up,some may say 4 cbs is excessive but in reality i see it more as 3 with mager a safety convert and special teams ace,plus with us loosing moore and not knowing when mo will return (hopefully never) we need some bodies at cb

KJ won't even make it to 27 let alone 36 and 4 DBs and no O linemen?

I really like a lot of those guys.

Kevin Johnson has been a pet cat of mine since the offseason began. I originally wanted Dallas to get him in round 2 but that is no longer possible. If he's there at 27 (I tend to think he will not be), then I'm perfectly fine with him.

Bennett would probably be a really good pick at 60 if he's still there.

Cobb, I'm starting to like a lot. His physical game would really add to the backs that we already have and if he hit, it would be huge. Still, the team really likes to get guys they've had in to Dallas and with as many backs as they've visited with, I tend to think their pick at RB will come from that list.

Clark has been a favorite pick of mine for a while now. Marinelli would work wonders with his aggression and physical tools. He is really climbing boards since his legal issues have cleared up and Dallas will have to take him higher than I originally wanted to. Maybe even higher than the 4th. Still it is one guy who visited Dallas that I really want us to draft.

Shepherd and Davison are two more guys that I have targeted for Dallas.

Overall, you drafted a ton of players that I really like a lot. I'd be very happy with it, even if I don't get my RB.

Would love for the draft to turn out this way. I love for us to get our hands on Johnson, Clark, Davison and getting Bennet would be a bonus. I just don' t think the guys will be there when we pick but if we get them where you slotted them, that would be one great draft.

How many dbs went to the pro bowl from our roster?n how many oline?dbs need upgrading-olineonly needs depth which can be added via udfa or when roster cuts occur.

I understand good DB's are hard to find but we also need depth on the Oline as well. I'm fine with 3 or if you love your your DB's then replace one of your picks at DT because we shown little to no intrest in DT's. You really trust Free to keep up level of play or injury free all season that a UDFA is enough depth? And yes i know Leary was a UDFA but if someone like that falls off the board we are now competing with other teams to sign him. No guarantees we get the udfa's we want.

We only list parnell from last year-a back up tackle of which we have a couple more they seem pretty high on

I Understand that but i just dont see a reason to take so many CB's or DT's when at least one good OT or OG can be had with one of the picks. This is the only problem i had with ur mock. I love the picks just think one o lineman should be picked up. Never know who will go down in injury.

No u dont no who will go down.but what with moore going,mo being injuured and a bust and carrs performance vs his cap hit then i can certainly see 2 corners needed this year to play significant snaps and a 3rd to develope as carrs replacemnt next year(that would be walker)mager as developmental safety also provides depth at saftey of which we only have corey white or jeff heath.an oline woukd be nice but some db help is a neccesity

Not according to the trade chart​

Who would Jacksonville be so hot to trot for that they are giving up quite a few choices to move up nine spots? Trades do not just happen without a lot of things falling in line. That trade would make it a three player draft for them.

they also picked up depth in Cory white as well who can play at both nickel and dime as well as play saftey. I see where your coming from with need at corner but 3 would be enough as your logic of just picking up a udfa or cut o linemen can apply to depth at CB as well.

Gurley,dgb,oo are 3 of the types they could wanna move up for.depends on who they are high on.but certainly a rb like gurley or gordon or a massive target like dgb would help them to help blake bortles which shoukd be there number 1 priority.and when push comes to shove a top 5 pick on there defence and atop offensive weapon like the 1s mentioned would sure help them alot as there not that far of being a good team

If Gurley or Gordon is there at 27, we would take him ourselves.

And you think they would give up half their draft for a headcase like Green-Beckham after being burned by Blackmon? You must think they are intensely stupid.

It sure would.but we havent exactly been very good at picking up oline men and turning them into starters in any round other than the 1st for quiet a long time now.where as dline or db we seem to do a decent job with mid to late picks

That still is no reason to not take a good lineman if he is bpa especially in a later round.
