SFLegend's Mock: Final Edition

[sflegend89]

*Note: You must click "Reveal Hidden Contents" at bottom of page to view our picks

 

1. Los Angeles Rams: Carson Wentz, QB, North Dakota St. - Wentz appears to be the favorite for the #1 overall pick, tall, athletic, perhaps a bit raw but they think he can be special.

2. Philadelphia Eagles: Jared Goff, QB, California - The Eagles must either like both QB's a lot or have inside info on who the Rams are picking to have made this trade. Either way we now know Wentz/Goff will go 1-2 regardless of order.

3. San Diego Chargers: Laremy Tunsil, OT, Ole Miss - The Chargers get the #1 player on their board and add a future pro-bowl LT in Tunsil to their depleted OL that was a thorn in Philip Rivers' side in 2015. 

4. Dallas Cowboys: Jalen Ramsey, DB, Florida St - Big coup for the Cowboys, they cash in on the early QB action and come away with arguably the best player in the draft

5. Jacksonville Jaguars: Myles Jack, LB, UCLA - The Jags worked out Jack this week in LA and it's easy to envision a scenario in which they fall in love with him based on that workout. Ultimately the bum knee reports end up being false flags and Jack's top 5 status proves that.

6. Baltimore Ravens:

 

*Live on NFL Network*

Rich Eisen: The Baltimore Ravens are on the clock now. With Ramsey, Tunsil, and Myles Jack off the board I wouldn't be surprised if Ozzie Newsome looks to trade this pick, what do you guys think?

Mike Mayock: Certainly a possibility. Joey Bosa the pass rusher from Ohio State makes a lot of sense here. Deforest Buckner is the top player on my board right now and he would be a great fit for their defense as well.

Rich Eisen: Hold on, the pick is in, it appears the Ravens will make a selection at #6. Let's go live to the commissioner.

 

 

Roger Goodell: With the 6th pick in the 2016 NFL Draft, The Baltimore Ravens select...

 

 

 

Ezekiel Elliott, Runningback, Ohio State University

 

 

Rich Eisen: WOW! The Ravens take Elliott, is this a shocker to you?

Mike Mayock: It's not the pick I anticipated, I thought they would go defense here, but it's not surprising. Elliott is absolutely one of the best players in this entire draft and he's the most complete Runningback we've seen in quite some time. Speed, Power, Balance, Catching, Pass Blocking, this kid can do it all, let's take a look at some footage.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Round 2: Baltimore Ravens: Mackensie Alexander, CB, Clemson

Round 3: Baltimore Ravens; Deion Jones, LB, LSU

Lol profanity filter strikes again

Also yeah I'd prefer a trade back any day of the week over Elliott at 6. I have made my thoughts on him more than clear.

[Kinda_Dante]

I would be absolutely shocked by this pick with Bosa still on the board, but I wouldn't be mad I absolutely love Zeke and I think he will absolutely be a special player!!

I think we would all be shocked. But I also feel like the Ravens are absolute sticklers about taking BPA. I can definitely envision Elliott being higher on our board than Bosa. Elliott is a complete RB, I think he transforms our offense and we'll hit defense hard in rounds 2-4.

[Deflated Football]

I like it. Nice job. Plus the commentary is spot on. 

 

*switches to ESPN to see what they have to say*

 

Gruden: "I'll tell you what Mel, this kid can play. Ozzie Newsome strikes again. Spider 2 Y Banana." 

Berman: "errr well there goes Ezekiel 'Bread' Elliot..."

I've started to entertain the idea that we like Elliot a lot more than we let on but still idk over Bosa but I agree 100%

I did allude to a trade back in my dialogue but it takes two to tango. With both the QB's already off the board I think a trade back is far less likely as the appeal of jumping SF is no longer there. While ideally we may want to trade back if this scenario plays out I'm not sold on us necessarily finding a trade partner with who's available. Elliott's stock has been sky rocketing and I see him as a Le'Veon Bell type of NFL player who can really do it all, Bosa has received some mixed reviews so Elliott very well might be higher on our board.

..............

Not that everything PFF says is gospel but I'm just gonna leave this here:

 

 

[ALPHA]

Peterson isn't a good comparison, I think he's more like LaDanian Tomlinson.

I get the dislike for this pick as we do need a lot of defensive help, but Elliot is well worth the 6th overall pick and Flacco could comfortably lean on him for the rest of his career.

1. Los Angeles Rams: Carson Wentz, QB, North Dakota St. - Wentz appears to be the favorite for the #1 overall pick, tall, athletic, perhaps a bit raw but they think he can be special.

2. Cleveland Browns: Jared Goff, QB, California - Goff was their guy all along as reports have indicated and the Rams trade ultimately doesn't alter their original draft plan. They will entertain trades here for a team looking to snag Goff but will hold tight if the haul isn't massive on their end for giving up this oh-so-valuable pick.

3. San Diego Chargers: Laremy Tunsil, OT, Ole Miss - The Chargers get the #1 player on their board and add a future pro-bowl LT in Tunsil to their depleted OL that was a thorn in Philip Rivers' side in 2015.

There are still guys I would choose over him at #6 all things considered. And I wouldn't be asking for much in a trade back either if faced with Elliott as the only guy I could take at #6. Maybe a team wants Buckner(Oregon, Chip Kelly) or wants to move up for Bosa. I think getting whoever is there at lets say 10 or so and a pick to me is better than taking Elliott at 6. 

[ellicottraven]

How cool would it now be for the Jets to give up their 2 firsts in 2016,2017 and their 2nd in 2016 to trade up with the Ravens? And then suck up the joint in 2016 and have a top 5 pick next year. Wait I haven't stopped fantasizing yet.... and the 2016 Ravens win the SB??

In the article he wasn't comparing him stylistically to Peterson. He was saying that in terms of being a complete RB (speed, power, receiving, blocking) he's the best total package we've seen since AP. I definitely think AP has another gear in terms of speed. LT is a good comparison, I like the Le'Veon Bell comparison a lot.

I think a big factor is also that this draft has plenty of depth on defense. If Elliott is truly the highest player on our board at the time and we can't trade out I think you take him and feel good about it. We have an extremely high 2nd round pick, we can trade back into the end of the 1st and go after a CB or Pass Rusher, a good one might even fall to us without having to trade. There is still plenty of opportunities to bolster the defense, Zeke Elliott is the only true offensive weapon in the entire draft. Forsett is on the wrong side of 30 and now all of a sudden we have a workhorse RB in Zeke who gives our entire offense a new dimension.

[Jacquouille]

I love Eliott and would love to here M&T shout ZEEEEEEEKE everytime Flacco hands him the ball. But I got over the idea of taking him. I just love Bosa and next year's RB class too much.

I mean LT isn't a bad consolation prize lol

[Deflated Football]

Is Zeke a "violent" runner like AD?

 Absolutely love this mock. 

  If the Ravens avoid players with injury ?s and Eagles don't actually take Elliott for themselves, then I think he is our pick (BPA).  Just can't see Eagles giving up that much for him.  Then again, look at what L.A. Gave up for the #1.  

 With Elliott and possibly a LT in the later rounds for insurance against Monroe, we will have our best offense yet barring injuries. The only thing better would be to trade with SF and still get him.

Zeke is good but we got Trent Richardson now.  

 

[ravensdan]

Let's just go all in on offense and create an elite group. With a couple of moves...

 

1. Zeke

2. Whitehair 

3. Michael Thomas.

I would love Elliott at 6. I think he could be Emmitt Smith good.

We just need a line like Smith had, but yea he produced for so long, i still think Sanders was on another level.
