Timb2's NFL Mock Draft 1-31-25( Pre- Combine)

[timb2]

1ST ROUND

1- Titans- Abdul Carter EDGE Penn State

Reason- I don't see this as a top heavy QB class. QB Guys in the 2nd- 3rd rounds can be just as good imo. Titans have holes everywhere. I believe they draft a QB later and let Mason Rudolph take the reins until that rookie QB is ready.Titans grab a sure thing and that is Abdul Carter who can improve the Titans Defense immensely with sacks and QB hurries


2- Browns- Travis Hunter WR/ CB Colorado

Reason- Browns have Deshaun Watson & Jameis Winston already. What the Browns need are playmakers especially in the air. Hunter should bring excitement to the Browns both on offense & defense.


3- Giants- Will Johnson CB Michigan

Reason- Giants have several holes and just like the Titans they pass on the Top Rated QBs. G- Men grab the best CB in the draft. Johnson has the talent to be a Pro Bowl Player for many years in the likes of Rod Woodson or Michael Haynes.


4- Patriots- Mason Graham DT Michigan

Reason- Vrabel is a defensive minded coach . Pats would have loved if A. Carter or W. Johnson fell here, but will settle for the hard nosed Mason Graham to rebuild their defense.


5- Jaguars-Malaki Starks S Georgia

Reason- FS Andre Cisco is a unrestricted free agent. Cisco has bad knees and Jags might look to replace him with Starks who has "Star" potential .

6-Raiders- Shedur Sanders QB Colorado

Reason- Sanders would bring excitement to Vegas. Just what the Raiders need, a fusion of Electricity under the Bright Lights of Vegas


7-Jets- Cam Ward QB Miami

Reason- The NFL Draft is being held near Lambeau Field. The Aaron Rodgers Haters are going to be ecstatic that the Jets select Ward as the future for the 41 year old Rodgers who retires with this pick made.


8-Panthers- James Pearce OLB Tennessee

Reason- Really need a consistent pass rush to keep the defense off the field. Pearce from nearby Knoxille,Tn i'm sure the Panthers have seen plenty of film of him.


9-Saints- Tetairoa McMillan WR Arizona

Reason- Saints get a big target to help move the chains and a threat in the red zone.


10- Bears-Mike Green DE Marshall

Reason- Demarcus Walker doesn't really standout. Bears are known for ferocious defenses and Green and his 17 sacks should catch their eye as a target for them.

[rambo2]

I think you are right about Mike Green. If he does go in front of us. It sets us up to get Jeanty or an offensive lineman, or a receiver.

 

[timb2]

11- 49ers- Josh Simmons OT Ohio State

Reason- Trent Williams is near the end of his career. Niners need to get a Left Tackle. I had Kelvin Banks here before,but watch more film on Simmons. He is longer and has very good feet to be the blindside protector.


12- Cowboys- Ashton Jeanty RB Boise State

Reason- Rico Dowdle is a free agent and 27 years old( Aging for a NFL RB prime years are alread passed). Cowboys have got a lot of holes to fill, but Brian Schottienheimer gets his player that he wants. Schottienheimer RUN FIRST,PASS SECOND OFFENSE. Jeanty is the workhorse and the key.



13-Dolphins- Tyler Warren TE Penn State

Reason- Dolphins add more to the " Air Attack". Warren could receive a lot of catches with Hill & Waddle stretching defenses long


14- Colts-Deone Walker DT Kentucky

Reason- Colts like their DTs huge, but their starters are both 30 and above. Grab the next mountain in Walker at 6'-6",345 lbs.


15-Falcons- Kenneth Grant NT Michigan

Reason- Falcons D- Line is aging all over 30 as the starters. Get the big, thick Grant to clog the middle.


Contine on next post.

 

[rambo2]

I don't think Deone Walker will go in the first round. Hopefully, he does go before pick 44 which will push another good player to us.

 

[timb2]

16-Cardinals- Kelvin Banks OG Texas

Reason - Cards OGs are not special. Will Hernandez is a unrestricted free agent, Evan Brown is just a warm body and Isiah Adams was a rookie still learning. Choose Banks who starts immediately and has Pro Bowl Potential.


17-Bengals- Xavier Watts S Notre Dame

Reason- Geno Stone is decent, but Watts would be an upgrade. Watts is a very good ballhawk and flies all over the field making plays.


18-Seahawks- Jihaad Campbell ILB Alabama

Reason- Seahawks really need a Leader for the defense. Campbell is a wrecking ball and leads with his physical play..


19-Buccaneers- Tyler Booker OG Alabama

Reason- If the Bucs pick Booker here. That makes three 1st round picks on the O- Line ( Wirfs,Barton,& Booker). O- Line is solid for the next decade.


20-Broncos- Will Campbell OT LSU

Reason- Broncos Left Tackle Garrett Bolles is 32 years old and injury- prone almost every season. Campbell takes over to protect Bo Nix's blindside.

[rambo2]

I'm curious if Grey Zabel will be in your 1st round.

 

[timb2]

21-Steelers- Savion Williams WR TCU

Reason- Steelers really like physical WRs. Savion Williams is 6'5,225 lbs and I believe he will be one of the surprises at the Combine.


22-Chargers- Jahdae Barron CB Texas

Reason- Jim Harbaugh is going to want physical players on his defense. Barron is a punishing tackler who could be considered.


23-Packers-Luther Burden WR Missouri

Reason- Pack goes for a electric player to help stretch the field in Burden


24-Vikings- Derrick Harmon DT Oregon

Reason- Jerry Tillery is a free agent and truthfully he's a flake Grab Harmon who likes football .


25-Texans- Jalon Walker OLB Georgia

Reason- Surprised he's still on the board and add another good athlete to the defense.

Continue on next post.

 

[big dog cowboy]

Brian Schottienheimer gets his player that he wants.

How do we know this?

 

[RonWashington]

You have Savion Williams going 21 to Steelers . I was hoping he would end up in Dallas in perhaps 2nd or 3rd round . If he’s there at 44 round 2 probably be wise for McClay to grab him .

I’m not sure the NFL sees him as a first rounder . 6’5” physical he would be perfect lined up opposite Lamb . This is a talent you can Jet Sweep or line him up in the backfield now and then see him run over defenders .

 

[timb2]

26-Rams- Greg Zabell OT North Dakota State

Reason- Rams Left Tackle Alaric Jackson is a free agent and he is nothing to write home about. Zabell has very good feet and length to be a NFL LT. Zabell has been great at the Senior Bowl practices stopping several big name rushers.


27-Ravens Emeka Egbuka WR Ohio State

Reason- Ravens need to get their WR Corps together if they want to take the next step to the Superbowl.


28-Lions- Jordan Burch DE Oregon

Reason- Lions need a bookend who can create havoc so teams just don't single out Aiden Hutchinson


29-Commanders- Quinshon Judkins RB Ohio State

Reason- Great Championship game. Don't be surprised if his name is called early.


30-Bills-Jack Sawyer DE Ohio State

Reason- Could replace A.J. Espenasa who offers little in the pass rush.


31- Eagles-Kyle Kennard DE South Carolina

Reason- Recorded 12 sacks in the SEC. Eagles love their pass rushers


32- Chiefs-Walter Nolan DT Mississippi

Reason- Chris Jones can't play forever, can he?

 

[rambo2]

It's Grey Zabel.

 

[rambo2]

It's Walter Nolen.

 

[RonWashington]

Ashton Jeanty had 192 yards vs Oregon . His game with that speed will translate in the NFL . It would be a bold move given the state of the defense but if he’s there at 12 Jerry will make this pick .

Ashton Jeanty had 192 yards vs Oregon . His game with that speed will translate in the NFL . It would be a bold move given the state of the defense but if he’s there at 12 Jerry will make this pick .

He also makes the first guy miss on nearly every single play.

 

[RonWashington]

These are the facts . When Zeke Elliott came to Dallas the chains were moving and defenses had to fear the run which helped Dak .

I could see Jeanty with a Dowdle compliment giving the Pokes a one two combo that would wear down defenses and open up the passing game .

Klayton Adams OC and Schott want the run game to be more than token. How much better is Philly with 26 set up behind Hurts ready for chunks of yards or play action pass .

2ND ROUND

33-Browns- Omar Norman- Lott DT Tennessee

34-Giants-Will Howard QB Ohio State

35-Titans- Riley Leonard QB Notre Dame

36-Jaguars- A'zareh Thomas CB Florida State

37-Raiders-Ozzy Trapilo OT Boston College

38-Patriots-Mykel Williams EDGE Georgia

39-Bears- Ben Morrison CB Notre Dame

40-Saints- Shavon Revel CB East Carolina

41- Bears-Jonah Savaeii OG Arizona

42-Jets-Colston Loveland TE Michigan

43-49ers-Maxwell Hairston CB Kentucky.


44- Cowboys-Landon Jackson DT Arkansas

Reason- You already know I loathe Jerry Jones. Well this is where Jerry gets what he wants. We need a DT also possibly a replacement for Demarcus Lawrence. Will Clay just got his contract renewal, so Jerry gets to pick his Razorback. Jackson is not a bad player, but scrutiny from the media and Jerry slobbering on him 24/7 , will make it difficult for him to be a breakout player.




Continue the rest later.

73-Raiders-Isiah Bond WR Texas

74-Panthers-Carson Schweisinger MLB UCLA

75- 49ers-Malachai Moore S Alabama

76-Cowboys- Dont'e Thornton Jr. WR Tennessee

Reason- Need more weapons on offense. Thornton is a big target with good speed. He could supplant Jalen Tolbert who runs hot ' n ' cold at times.
