Rusty's 2.0 no trade mock 2025

[gimmesix]

I don’t even think he’s a “freak” athlete.

I thought he was supposed to move really well for his size. I'd have to go back and look at the profiles. I just remember watching some clips of him after he was being talked about as a second-round prospect. I didn't like what I saw.

Walker isn't an NT, he is a 3T. He is not a space occupier

He should be but doesn't seem to play like it.

No trades (https://www.profootballnetwork.com/mockdraft), here they are:


12.
Tetairoa McMillan
WR Arizona
https://www.nfl.com/prospects/tetairoa-mcmillan/32004d43-4d51-4957-830f-234e646a998f

Excellent WR who would do well opposite Lamb. Dak would be getting a good weapon.


44.
Deone Walker
DT Kentucky
https://www.nfl.com/prospects/deone-walker/32005741-4c11-7169-6fcb-f4a66c62b249

Massive nose tackle who would give us an improved ability to stop the run.

76.
Jared Wilson
OC Georgia
https://www.nfl.com/prospects/jared-wilson/32005749-4c72-2464-6806-4dd99cf158ab

We'd be getting some help on the oline, and Beebe can shift to guard to replace Martin.

149.
Garrett Dellinger
OG LSU
https://www.nfl.com/prospects/garrett-dellinger/32004445-4c47-4675-5a61-c3c077c9d91e

Guard depth

171.
Teddye Buchanan
LB California
https://www.nfl.com/prospects/teddye-buchanan/32004255-4322-1280-615f-e0ff6a162892

More help at linebacker, can never have enough linebackers.

174.

Brashard Smith
RB SMU
https://www.nfl.com/prospects/brashard-smith/3200534d-4908-2538-e2f9-73c89a5b03c8

RB help, can start, good in passing game


204.
Tahj Brooks
RB Texas Tech
https://www.nfl.com/prospects/tahj-brooks/32004252-4f16-8325-38e7-d7fab363c600

Could be our lead back

211.
Que Robinson
EDGE Alabama
https://www.nfl.com/prospects/que-robinson/3200524f-4267-8792-7fe6-86ca3aaae22b

Pass rush help and also good at special teams

239.
Kurtis Rourke
QB Indiana
https://www.nfl.com/prospects/kurtis-rourke/3200524f-5526-6938-2bf5-3db923fa6a15

Canadian QB who would make a good backup for us. Never a bad idea to use a late pick on a QB.

247.
Isas Waxter
CB Villanova
https://www.nfl.com/prospects/isas-waxter/32005741-5841-5291-aa88-456b8803a21d

Cb option who ran a 4.56 40. He'd be the replacement for Jourdan Lewis, and he's quick enough to rotate in the return game with Turpin.

I certainly could have it all wrong but I can't buy that RB value wasn't there till your pick. I like your pits otherwise

There was, but, with the way this draft played out, I was also going for positions that I have also as a high priority. I think what my last two no trade mock show is we need a trade down if we want to fill more needs. I think the backs I got are good choices, and I was able to get a top WR to pair with Lamb, a way to stop the run, and a way to block better. Oh, and a LB that I want us to pick. Tbf, I think a back in round 5 where I took the guard would have been good, but I also like the guard I picked. Makes for good guard depth.

I also am not a fan of Walker at DT. He is massive, but NFL offensive linemen will win the leverage battle because he plays high out of his stance. He could win on size and strength in college, but you just can't do that regularly in the NFL.

Your point? Meaning earliest you would draft him.......
I'm probably a minority but I like the kid. I think he's better than some fans are giving him credit. He is certainly not an elite prospect but with coaching, right scheme and patience I think he can be a starter in 2-3 years. I would take him with 76.......

If Al Davis was still alive, I would wager a decent sized bet he'd be drafted by the "Raaaydaahs!"

Beebe can shift to guard to replace Martin.

That isn't going to happen.
