1st round- Kony Ealy DE Mizzu- I think this kid is going to blow up the combine on monday and cement himself as a top 20 pick. Incredible size and speed combo with the explosion to beat most tackles off of the snap. Long with the ability to bend around the corner to get after the QB. Didn't dominate like he probably should have at Mizzu which keeps him out of the top 15, but with some coaching technique he could easily be a premier pass rusher in the NFL.

2nd Round- Dominique Easley DT Florida- If not for the ACL tear is Sept. theres no way he gets out of the top 20 picks. 1 of the fastest and most explosive players off of the line you will ever see. The 2nd acl surgery is a for sure a concern, but with Dr. Andrews doing the surgery and world renowned sports trainer Tony Villani doing his rehab I don't think there is any doubt Easley will be ready for week 1 of the regular season. If 100% Easley is going to be an absolute nightmare as a 3 tech getting after the QB. Much better prospect

3rd Round- Donte Moncrief WR Ole Miss- Jerry can't go too long without taking a skill position player....3rd round is going to represent a great value for WR this year because of the large amount of underclassmen. Moncrief is 1 of those guys. Very big with great hands and knows how to play the ball in the air. Doesn't have the greatest straight line speed which keeps him from being a much higher pick, but his size and ability to play the outside gives him a good shot to be a good NFL player.

4th Round- Chris Watt G Notre Dame- Former 5 star recruit and 36 game starter at LG for ND. Technician who moves well and has a good understanding of the game. May not have the highest ceiling because he isn't the biggest or best athlete, but also has a very low ceiling. Should find a home as a starter for a while in the NFL.

5th Round- Preston Brown LB Louisville- Great vs the run and a very sure tackler. Played some zone in college and is adequate but its certainly not his strong suit. Could provide competition at SLB and depth at MLB.

7th Round- Jerome Smith RB Syracuse- I think this kid is a very good option for a ZBS. Short compact bowling ball frame perfect for picking a hole and getting down hill quickly. Had 1,100 yards when Syracuse was decent with Nassib

7th Round- Viliami Moala DT Cal- Huge and ridiculously strong. More mobile than you would think. Should have never left school early, but he has the potential to be a steal of he develops. 5 star recruit out of high school.

7th Round- Joe Don Duncan TE/FB Dixie St- Crazy strong and surprisingly athletic. 1,100 yards and 12 TD's in 10 games against inferior competition. Intriguing enough to take a look at.

Comp Picks
Jeff Matthews QB Cornell
Phillip Gaines CB Rice
Matt Feiler OT Bloomsburg

I like your mock! Very realistic where you have players projected to be taken.

Nice mock
My concern is that you are sacrificing a much better OL to take an average WR

Give me Donald Thomas in rd 3 and I am on board

Trust me, I'm a huge Thomas fan but I did this mock assuming he wouldn't be off of the board for our 3rd rounder. That and I just don't think Jerry is going o line in the first 3 rounds. I remember seeing an interview where he said you can't invest too many resources in 1 spot when referring to the o line.
