This is my 6th no trade mock. Two more coming before the draft. Most picks except for Collins and Brashard Smith (who I've picked many times at this point) will have videos where available. As for the bonus, I used to provide a top 10 UDFAs. That made these way too long. However, I'm going to give a top 5 UDFA list that I'd like us to sign if they go undrafted.

Freakish athlete as a DE, Stewart would be a great replacement for DLaw. Parsons can move around between Linebacker and other positions, but our primary DEs would become Kneeland and Stewart. Opposing olines would struggle greatly to contain both of them, imo. And, if Parsons is at DE, then we can have Stewart and Parsons on each end. In either package, we would have. A lethal pair of DEs plus Parsons.


44.
Wyatt Milum
OG West Virginia

While technically a LT, he can also play guard. I think he would make a great replacement for Martin. While I've been on record with my preference being Savainnaea, 1, he wasn't available and 2, it'd get incredibly boring for me to keep listing him here, so, for this draft, I chose a different guard. But, one who is still an excellent prospect.


76.
Alfred Collins
DT Texas

I've mentioned this NT many times, so I will refrain from posting videos and measurements. Suffice to say, between Parsons, Stewart, Kneeland, Osa, and Collins (at NT), that would be one formidable dline.

Gives us a safety to protect our secondary.

174.
Brashard Smith
RB SMU
Mentioned him before. We would get an upgrade at the run game .

Kaden Prather
WR Maryland
https://www.nfl.com/prospects/kaden-prather/32005052-4150-3598-ce14-97ba351041b0



Gives us a possible number 2 receiver option.

Kobe Hudson

Underrated physical wr who might be a good option also as a 2 WR.

Underrated running back. Would be a steal in round 7.

Linebacker depth, always a need.

Small school QB option. Never a bad idea to get a QB undrafted. He can compete with Grier for the 3 spot.

Melvin Smith CB Southern Arkansas
https://youtu.be/KutyRgHCeXQ?si=IfyHxaCNkpU0Dzxn

Small school CB. I like the way he attacks the ball. I think he'd be worth a look.

Pat Garwo RB Nevada

https://247sports.com/player/patrick-garwo-iii-46040727/

The video is of his time at Boston College. Haven't found much of him at Nevada. Still, I think he'd make an interesting prospect to bring in undrafted.

MLB who has a pretty solid downhill rush. We can always use more LB depth, especially inside.

More linebacker depth


So, for the recap. The first three picks basically give us a nice dline. Between Parsons, Kneeland, Stewart, Osa, and Collins, that's a really good dline. Might be a bit overkill, but we need it. Then, we also get a guard in the first 3 picks to replace Martin. Basically, this gives us a chance to play keep away and, well, if they can't score, then they can't win. Let's face it, without a trade down, it'll likely take more than one draft to fix our issues. That said, the first 3 picks fix the cornerstones we need.


Then, come round 5, we get a safety to upgrade our secondary, a couple backs, a couple receivers, a linebacker, and a corner. We're bound to find a lead back between Smith, Sanders, and Williams (from Denver). As for undrafted, I found competition for Grier. I found a running back to throw into the mix. I found a small school CB who can compete for a spot. Then finally, I found two more linebackers to compete. We never have enough linebackers, so why not sign two decent options?

That is another solid draft Rusty I like the additions of Wyatt Milum and Kaden Prather both played for West Virginia, that's my favorite college team .Born and raised in Wv.

Thank you, I saw that about Wyatt, but I didn't know that about Prather. They both do seem to be very tough players. I think they'd be steals.

That would be a great first two days. Which means it's never going to happen.

I think you can switch the 2nd and 3rd. Going by my board, it looks like Milum will be there in the 3rd, and Collins won't. But Collins should be there at 44.

I'd be happy to do so. That'd be perfectly fine by me.
 
I like the Milum and Collins picks.
Do not care for Stewart. His production of Sacks are next to nil. His pressures are nice but they do not pay off and he should have better production with that defense.

I like the RBs but think both are RB by committee backs...which is ok as Sanders can stay healthy and is the main player during run downs as I think he is a liability in pass protection.
Smith would great as a pass catching RB who can also pass protect.
He is a good runner as well but I think his bread and butter will be as a weapon in the passing game esp if Dallas can start using the screen game again.

Not sure about the WRs. It is not that I dislike them but at the same time I do not know that either one is much of an upgrade of what we already have. I would like one taken Higher and then possibly taking a flier on a speed guy later.

I like the idea of double dipping at RB.
Not so much at WR with those two choices. I would rather double dip at DT. I think you can get some good 1 techs or a 1tech and another 3 tech.

I will not complain about the other names taken, I would say there are others I prefer over them but that is just personal takes.

With that said. I always appreciate the time, effort and thought that goes into these full mocks with write ups concerning each pick.

That's fair. I wanted to try a de early cuz I've done, think , picking Jeanty. I've done McMillan, I did an olineman, and I did a safety last week. So, this was an attempt at something different, and I do think Stewart is a good player, but I get the concern.
