    1. Cleveland Browns - Myles Garrett, edge, TA&M 

    2. SF 49ers - Leonard Fournette, RB, LSU - really hard projection here, my gut tells me Jamal Adams goes here as he is probably the BPA, but the reports of the new regime wanting to move on from Hyde and being interested in fournette make it difficult to go a different route. 

    3. Chicago Bears - Jamal Adams, S, LSU - another tough one to call, i hear they like hooker, but i also hear they like adams. in this case, im gonna go stick to the board and give the bears the BPA who fills a need and brings a face of the franchise type of player 

    4. Jax Jaguars - Solomon Thomas, DL, Stanford - Jonathan Allen strikes me as a Tom Coughlin guy, but Im buying the hype around his shoulder arthritis, this early in the draft it is just too much risk. i think Thomas is overdrafted here, but Coughlin is no stranger to working with raw guys with superb athleticism, like Jason Pierre-Paul for example, Coughlin is also a very well known front seven addict. hopefully this pick doesnt sound too cliche 

    5. Tennessee Titans - OJ Howard, TE, Bama - too great a fit. this team has nothing as far as receiving threats, with a franchise QB who extends plays well and can get it deep on broken plays, so a 6'5" behemoth athlete like Howard will be able to get down the field and bail out Mariota often on play action passes. speaking of play action, theyre a power running offense, emphasis on power, OJ Howard is the best blocking tight end i may have ever seen, he never leaves the field for this power run team, is always a threat, this is just a match made in heaven. 

    6. NY Jets - Marshon Lattimore, CB, OSU - every source in the world seems to report either this, or a trade back with cleveland. either makes sense, i cant realistically think of any other options here. hooker is my BPA at this point, but i feel the jets are going to prioritize CB 

    7. LA Chargers - Malik Hooker, FS, OSU - if either safety is on the board here, they will be the pick. replacing weddle at all costs is almost certainly their plan 

    8. Carolina Panthers - Jonathan Allen, DL, Bama - and the tumble stops here. Carolina is a BPA team through and through, which is why i dont buy the mcaffrey rumors at all. they feel they have a championship roster, and they do, which is why they can afford to take Allen here, if his shoulder injury puts him out of the league by year 5, then they could have still won a championship with him as a major contributor. 

    9. Cincinnati Bengals - Derek Barnett, edge, Tennessee - sad face 

    10. Buffalo Bills - Mike Williams, QB, Clemson 

    11. NO Saints - Taco Charlton, edge, Michigan - saints are gonna address either secondary or edge rush here, im thinking the latter. i dont like taco much at all, but i can understand why teams see potential, he probably has the best blend of size and athleticism and really does have a high ceiling, i just dont like his floor. 

    12. Cleveland Browns - Mitch Trubisky, QB, UNC 

    13. Arizona Cardinals - Marlon Humphrey, CB, Bama 

    14. Philadelphia Eagles - Christian Mcaffrey, RB, Stanford - totally buying the rumors that a team in the top half has guaranteed him a drafting, why else would he have turned down all private workouts? he has nothing to prove, thats why. philly makes more sense than any other team, give the young franchise qb an easy outlet 

    15. Indy Colts - Forrest Lamp, G, WKU - theyve drafted a lot of linemen and they all seem to be failures, maybe because they have only drafted one high and have tried to get by with a bunch of flyers in mid rounds, they right that ship here and finally get luck a solid blocker 

    16. Baltimore Ravens 

    13_CoreyDavis_news.jpg 

    Corey Davis, WR, WMU - is this finally the year? do we finally find the #1 WR? a guy who can get quick separation and make himself available? a guy who can turn 2 yard catches into first downs? decosta has been in full smoke screen mode, he spoke of all 3 first round receivers, and sounded indifferent about davis, very nonchalant, and with the rumors linking the ravens to john ross, it seems like classic decosta smokescreens. im calling his bluff and predicting that corey davis is high on our boards, and that we pull the trigger here. now i dont think corey davis is some sure fire savior to our offense, he isnt the concrete lock to perform well on day one, he has shown excellent and technical routes, but due to the amount of cushion he has faced he has never had to show creativity and savviness in his game, and when he has faced tight coverage he has struggled. now he has absurdly quick feet and is a big strong guy and plays very physical, so i dont doubt he can learn this part of the game. i just dont think hes as refined as some say, but he will continue to develop those finer parts and become a very good receiver for us. 

    17. Washington Redskins - Reuben Foster, LB, Bama - the skins have always been known to have a few knuckleheads on the roster, i dont think theyll mind the risk involved with foster when considering the gigantic upgrade he brings to their struggling defense who is in desperate need of an identity and a man in the middle. 

    18. Tennesse Titans - Chidobe Awuzie, CB, Colorado - buying the hype 

    19. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Dalvin Cook, RB, FSU 

    20. Denver Broncos - Cam Robinson, G/RT, Bama - they need a lineman anywhere and this is a BPA to fill a need scenario. he isnt the BPA but he is far and away the best current lineman 

    21. Detroit Lions - Haason Reddick, OLB, Temple - the lions need some impact on defense, the best way to do that is to add some pass rush across from ziggy and the general motor and speed of reddick will be a huge boost in the pass happy NFC north. 

    22. Miami Dolphins - Zach Cunningham, LB, Vanderbilt - they have a need at LB, hes a reasonable value here, hes a rangy guy and a tackling machine, nothing too flashy but damn sound and gets around the field effectively and makes stops short of the sticks, should do well behind an excellent front, potential to stifle the patriots smallball game. 

    23. NY Giants - David Njoku, TE, Miami 

    24. Vegas Raiders - Gareon Conley, CB, OSU - the guy who was rumored to fly up boards goes on a tumble but it ends here. if the rumors of awuzie to tennessee werent swirling id slate him there, but thats the selection that hurts him here. im not his biggest fan, hes alright imo, but teams seem to like him, i could see him going to detroit, indy, cleveland, or arizona as well. 

    25. Houston Texans - QB, QB, Some School - dont know which one, but i think they take one. brain says Mahomes, gut says Watson. 

    26. Seattle Seahawks - Obi Melifonwu, S, UConn - very cliche pick, i know, but BamBam could be gone next year, and they dont want to lose that large enforcer who can play deep or up close. peppers is another possible candidate here but i think seattle places a lot of emphasis on size in the seconday, so the lengthy Obi gets the nod. 

    27. KC Chiefs - TJ Watt, edge, Wisconsin - tamba hali isnt some ageless wonder, hes falling off a cliff and justin houston has missed his fair share of time. they get a future all around edge defender who should be solid in year one, but while houston and hali are still around he can develop for a year, grow into an nfl body, and break out in year 2 

    28. Dallas Cowboys - John Ross, WR, Washington - i actually doubt he falls this far, tbh the guy slipped my mind a bit, he could go to just about any team, but addressing needs of teams had me take other guys over ross. consider this a slip up in my mock where i just forgot about a guy for a bit. but IF ross falls this far, its bad news for the league, this would just make dallas' offense a perfect storm, i dont know how youd stop it. 

    29. Green Bay Packers - Jabrill Peppers, SS, Michigan - they need help in a lot of places on defense, and peppers brings the kind of skillset that can really help change the complexity of a struggling defense. if you need a safety, LB, edge rusher, and cb, and just need to make your entire defense in general better, a great way to do that is to add an explosive, aggressive player with good instincts and textbook form tackling. peppers usage in college isnt indicative of his skillset, he was used as a blitzer almost exclusively, but he shows instincts and the athleticism to suggest hes got good range, plus the aggressive mentality, making him a great fit as an x factor strong safety 

    30. Pittsburgh Steelers - Malik McDowell, DT/DE, Mich. St. - this spells trouble for the ravens. if a reportedly unmotivated player needs to get motivated, put him in the steelers ravens rivalry, smh to us. this spot might not be a dire need but mcdowell is enough of a mover to say damn the need, he brings impact from all over the front. a legitimate top 3 talent with legitimate character concerns.

    31. Atlanta Falcons - Charles Harris, edge, Mizzou - not this guys biggest fan but they need a pass rusher opposite beasley. they could also go with jordan willis here simply because he has an outstanding combine and the falcons have been very well known to take combine performers, which makes this pick kinda contrarian, but im gonna go ahead and think the falcons take the better player now, rather than  the project, them holding a private workout for both he and willis says a lot, im thinking they like harris better on tape but wanted to see if he just had a rough day at the combine. secondary is also on the list here, possibly adoree jackson, a well know athletic freak.

    32. NO Saints - Tre'Davious White, CB, LSU - its a rumor im buying, because it makes sense. bold prediction here, if lattimores injuries are a problem in the NFL then white will be the best corner of this class 

    Ravens round 2(47th) 

    hi-res-428c08ed878d6586064dac66ab97b10e_

    Tim Williams, edge, Bama - i would tear my house down in celebration here. tim williams is an absolute menace. second best jump off the line after garrett in the whole class, and he plays with authority and violence. he punches, he presses, he rips and spins, he exploits the tackles movements, works one shoulder at a time to take on half a blocker and not allowing the OT to square up and latch on. he plays with intense passion on the field and brings the energy and motor you want, just absolutely relentless, but off the field in interviews he has been very calm and humble, and quite honestly seems mature and contrary to the reports. team first guy, through and through, he doesnt care about the personal accolades, he'll attribute his success to his team in a heartbeat while shouldering any blame, but dont mistake that for a lack of confidence. he is a relatively refined edge rusher, probably top 3 in this class in terms of hand fighting, decision making, and a general arsenal of pass rush moves. he bulked up before his final season, reportedly around 20 lbs, and most of that appears to be in his upper body, which i think could explain his slipping and falling in the championship game, top heavy guys struggle to stay balanced in the bend, but he doesnt lack the flexibility. he has room to add another 10 lbs in his lower body putting him at ideal OLB size. and honestly seems realistic, he is as low as 3rd round in a lot of mocks, but i dont think ozzie allows that. Carl Lawson is another consideration.

    side note, his run defense is really picked apart by people, it is better than hes given credit for, bama just has so much depth that they had no interest in NOT keeping his legs fresh. when he has had to defend the run, he shows a conceptual grasp of it, staying home on the edge, pinching the edge, gap integrity, backside pursuit, hes done it all well. one problem he has though is he gets trigger happy when a run comes his way and he'll run himself out of the play trying to make the TFL. 

    Round 3(74th)

    Pat+Elflein+Oregon+v+Ohio+State+1F3eBWmn 

    Pat Elflein, C, OSU - a high IQ mauling center with a championship pedigree. i dont know how this guy isnt considered a second round pick, but it seems to be the general consensus that hes a mid to late 3rd. hes right at home here with the ravens, day one starter and pro bowl potential. 

    78th 

    03_DesmondKing_news.jpg

    Desmond King, DB, Iowa

    another guy who is inexplicably regarded as a mid to late third rounder. typical though as the raw athletic dbs always tend to shoot up boards late in the process. but desmond king is a viable #2 cb, slot cb, and should do well at either safety spot. he plays much bigger than his size, plays with authority more than most corners in the class, this guy believes the man across from him is inferior, and he plays like its true. average athleticism and size has never been a factor as this guy plays big and physical, arguably the best ball skills in the class among dbs as well. ravens love versatility and this guy will step in any time there is an injury on the field, and do well. if weddle hangs it up in the near future, heres his replacement, same with carr. he just screams ravens and has since last year. Witherspoon is also a strong option but im not sure where his stock lies, mocks show him going in the third but i think he ends up mid second.

    Round 4(122nd)

    94d720_b9314b61070944d9b130b48a2c967c83~ 

    Adam Bisnowaty, OT, Pitt

    we address RT with a steal. this guys a late second early third in my eyes, but everything i see indicates him as a 5th rounder. hes a stud in the run game, needs work in pass pro, but the RT is the one spot you can afford to sacrifice pass pro, being the easiest part of the defense to avoid and manipulate. He fits the bill of bigger and stronger on the OL, he is a nasty brawler up front, gets the initial punch and drops the hips and drives upwards to put defenders on skates right off the bat, he doesnt lose the handfights because he extends quick and powerful and gets up in the chest early, and even when the defender staggers his engagement he is able to recover. he drops well in pass pro but gets stiff in the knees and ankles and may struggle to mirror guys who utilize inside lanes well. but as far as building a power run game goes, this guy is gonna make a quality RT

    Round 5(159th) 

    tarik-cohen.jpg?resize=678,381 

    Tarik Cohen, RB, NC A&T 

    the ravens are usually always good for a small school guy each year, and they usually seem to turn out pretty well, heres that guy. 5'6" and 175 but holy hell what a spark plug, danny woodhead is a stopgap obviously, but we need a dump option for joe at all times. this guy leaves defenders eating grass and hugging ghosts, his cuts are absolutely electric. if he can pack on a little bit of weight and get up to like 185, he should be stocky enough to hold up consistently as a receiving threat out of the backfield. 

    Round 6 

    jpeg 

    Brian Allen, CB, Utah 

    the ravens take another raw and lengthy project corner, 3 years in a row. 6'3" with good top speed and very sound in bump and run coverage, needs to turn his head and locate the ball better, needs to diagnose the deep ball better and flip his hips to get downfield. but definitely an intriguing project. he and maurice canady give us an interesting duo of long tall project corners. if just one of them pan out then we are sitting pretty in the secondary

     

     

     

    I would  really  cry tears of joy  with this draft  but I think Ross will  fall to the 2nd because of medical  and I'm going on record  saying when we draft Davis  he will be a instant starting wr  that's all

    this entire thread suggests that the ravens will draft for need rather than BPA which they always do... you are being incredibly specific with no idea about the specific players available at each spot or the feasibility of it or with no foresight as to who will be taken when

    honestly, this strikes me as an almost entirely futile exercise

    1) what if ross, davis, and williams are all gone in the first round?

    2) what if elfein (and pocic) are gone in the 2nd round?

    3) what if the top 10 linemen are all gone in the 3rd round?

    3) what if there is a run on running backs and cooks, fournette, mccaffrey, kamara, foreman, perrine, hunt, clement, gallman etc are all gone?

    4) what if that run on cbs means that everyone down to players like kazee get taken before our pick in the 4th round?

    5) what if the late round depth of the linebacker class is reached on by linebacker needy teams - guys like duke riley, anthony walker, alex anzalone etc.?

    6) what if the only safeties left are the potential UDFAs like jamal carter?

    i dont think any of the scenarios ive posted above are even remotely unfathomable or even unlikely... the answer to all of them is that we wouldn't take that position at that spot we'd pick a guy who falls from a different position - i could see all 3 of the first possibilities coming about - maybe they are even likely to happen who can say for sure?

    as with everything draft related you have to pick the player not the position like good teams do and you may be right that we end up with offensive pieces but its also quite likely given the defensive strength in the draft that our first pick is an edge rusher for example or our 2nd/3rd picks are defensive backs

    -- fighting against the strength of the draft class in advance of the draft even happening is like swimming upstream when you have no destination to get to

    If you think about it we always  draft on a need basis  when we drafted B.p. we needed wr when they took Mosley  they needed mlb when they drafted  Jimmy they needed cb  it's just we don't  reach  for a need

    Not familiar with the late round guys but I would like this draft. Dan feeney is more my cup of tea as I think he's the best guard prospect since Zack Martin and I see Alex Lewis as a better RT, but I do like Robinson and love the idea of trading back to target a guard. Tre white is in my top 5 corners and i think he's really underrated but I think he ends up in the first, jourdan Lewis is really similar but I think he is more likely to be there at 48, I still like Demarcus walker and think he's gonna be a really solid pro but nothing spectacular, but he's such a gamer and so refined and savvy that I think he makes an impact, I like smoot and walker as well. 

    I think we could find a better wr in the 3rd like rogers or Godwin, Taylor seems like more of a day 3 prospect to me, but to each his own, if you haven't already I suggest watching some of darreus rogers, iM not one to clamor for a boldin clone or compare every big bodied guy to boldin but I'll be damned if he doesn't look exactly like boldin on tape. 

    Solid mock

    Taylor  is two times better than both the wide Receivers  you mentioned  combined We would be lucky to get him in the third after the combine

    1st.) Cam Robinson- I say we get someone who could make our offensive line from weak to top 10 in a couple years assuming we stay healthy. Imagine having Ronnie Stanley, and Cam Robinson as our tackles, could become as good as Lewan and Conklin as a rising pair of tackles.I say we let go of Rick Wagner and use that money to retain B Williams

    2nd.) Tre'Davious White- As many here i love this kid one of the best cover corners ive seen in a couple years, yes he has his tackling problems but i think with Frazier improving our secondary like this year he could become decent at tackling. If White joined us he could help make our secondary elite even if/when Jimmy goes down pairing with Young and Weddle(who could help mentor him).

    3rd.) Cooper Kupp- This may be suprising to you guys because he come from a small school, but this kid is sure handed,great after the catch, and could help Flacco move the chains while he is here. I see him as a Jordy Nelson type with hands and YAC, definitely the gem of this draft in my opinion.

    3rd.) Tyler Orlosky- Good center to hopefully replace zuttah who is a flag machine and absolute trash. This kid may be something special great bend and is incredibly smart to pair along with a young O Line if we get Robinson to go with Lewis Stanley and Yanda

    How you feel about this mock?

    We are already ranked in the top 10 @ oline  look up off oline rankings

    Dalvin Cook is the best playmaker in this draft. If he is on the board, it would be hard to pass him up. I know he doesn't necessarily fit need and he has some off the field issues, but this dude is a stud. If you want a playmaker he can do it all. We know how Mornhinweg likes backs out of the backfield. He is a great pass catcher and great with the ball in his hands.

    Maybe you should  know  his fumble rate is over 60%

    I have already mentioned my corey davis feelings.

     

    Perriman = scared to get hurt

    Aiken= like denny green said we know what we have here

    Wallace= will be 32 next year; time to move forward

    Moore= not sure more like a teams guy to me

     

    I want

    Explosive WR or DE

    round 2 . CB or whichever we did not draft in round 1

    round 3 . OL

    round 4 . CB  we struck gold with Tavon Young.. just watched his tape.. great film. I want more aggressive corners just a little bigger.

    round 4  WR

    round 5-7 bpa or red flags potential. maybe grades; or coach squabble

    We only have three wrs not including  Campanaro  under contract  for next season

    I was just going through the bowl games and came across Taywan Taylor from WKU, anyone know anything about the guy, has massive production in their offense, haven't watched anything on him.

    I like the kid he will kill the combine he has a lot of Crabtree  like traits from the little bit I saw from him

    Davis doesn't have the most impressive explosion either. He's got better verticals but his explosion and top end speed are what keeps him from being considered a superstar prospect. Kupp may actually have better top end speed, he's sneaky fast and once he gets about 5 yards of open field he pulls away from defenders consistently. 

    I don't know witch Corey Davis  you have been watching  I have been following him for the past two years never once have I heard anyone  question  his explosion  kupp is good at finding  soft spots in zone that's  all

    Well the question is who in the top 3 rounds do you pass on. Do you ignore CB if Jimmy gets hurt, or ignore the interior O-line I think we need a pass rusher in the top 2 picks so what do you suggest. Antonio Brown was a 6th round pick they can be found and developed. Street ear was a specimen 6-5 220-225 with 4.3 speed he just couldn't catch that pick was worth the gamble it just didn't work out. I'm not huge on Hunter but where else do you go. If we keep Wallace and Aiken and Camp stays healthy ( I know a big if ) a

    You can't count on A 38 year old Wr  father time  Aiken Is a URFA he could go elsewhere  and campanaro lol yes A.b. was a 6th rd pick  but unless you're the Steelers who had three very good wrs when they drafted him It doesn't work  like that there are some instant impact  wrs that can be had in the 1st 3 rounds  scenario  1st.Tim Williams 2nd.Sidney Jones 3rd.Isaiah Ford wr vt the other third rd pick offensive line the Baylor center I forgot his name there  you have it

    Ya i agree. Theres a lot of good value in the second round. Although i would be pretty bummed not to get a corner in the first 2 rounds considering how good this class is. Especially at the top. Same with pass rusher. 2 positions we really need to find a long term answer for. I wouldny be surprised if we trade back into the 2nd round this year considering comp picks are now tradeable.  

    I would be highly  disappointed  rather have quality over quantity  There is a reason  The vast majority of  1st rd picks fair better  than 2nd-7th round

    Finally got around to watching Cooper kupp....

    Someone tell me Why the hell this man isn't a high 2nd/late 1st prospect? Level of competition and all but this man looks the part of an NFL wr. He's tied with Corey Davis in my book after finally seeing him.

    He dosen't  have that same explosion  on film as Davis  He looks  more like Chris Hogan  with better hands nothing  jumps off on tape he should  be a middle 2nd early third pick

    1) Yes, we knew him before the draft. And we still know him, not playing because Zach Orr is playing at a near Pro Bowl level isn't a crime.

    2) You need two teams to trade. Ozzie tried several times to trade up this year and just didn't find anyone.

    3) This year's class is so loaded at certain positions, overspending for a guy could be very very costly.

    What has  he done ??? Nothing  When we could  have draft  Noah Spence  who is coming on lately  in Tampa bay   this kid we wasted a pick on isn't even  a ilb  he's trash or invisible

    CB is the clear cut position we need to take round 1, the second Jimmy goes down we go from a contender to a terrible team. Offense is atrocious and needs lots of help but CB is the position we have to go. A new offensive coordinator could turn our offense around, no more former head coaches and veteran cast offs as coordinators, I'm sick of that, Kubiak has literally been the only one that's worked out (Caldwell was hit and miss, 2012 playoffs were nice and all but 2013 was bad). Take a chance on an up-and-comer with inventive ideas, not someone stuck in the past. Sidney Jones is still my guy but I'd be happy with a few of the top guys, I'll pass on Jackson in the first, saying he's "a little raw as a CB" is an understatement, he's a return man with athleticism and puts in effort on D, if he's around in the second then sure, but not the first.

    Contender ?????????? That had to been auto correct  bc we are a terrible team in need of a serious overhaul
