PFT's one and only mock draft

[757RavensFan]

Not a bad mock.  They have us taking Buckner at #6. 

I honestly feel if #1-5 play out as the predict, we'll trade back.

If the draft plays out like this I would take Elliot, Hargreaves, or Jack before I would pick Buckner. Maybe Jack before the rest depending on how the doctors feel about his knee.

Maybe the Ravens have a trade partner in the Saints and grab a Floyd/Lawson at their spot while stockpiling picks if Bosa is zapped ahead of us. We could still be in striking distance for a Zeke or Hargreaves.

I just really don't wanna see us trade back since we never pick this high. It would take a future first and a 2nd and 3rd in this draft for me to be ok.

of course we will get picks based on where we go,

 OzCosta will get the utmost  amount of picks 

or they will not trade,

I think we will trade back and we will be happy

PFT is bad at these... If you made a mock, I would definitely take it more seriously

1 correct pick in 2014 - http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2014/05/07/pfts-final-mock-draft/

Top 4 correct in 2015, then only 2 after that - http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2015/04/30/the-final-pft-mock-draft/

Were any trades involved those years? If so, that's something most can't predict and causes a ripple effect and then most teams picking after the trade are forced to pick different player.

I wonder if we were to trade back to around pick 12 and get a 2nd round pick in return how that would turn out. You could get Floyd or Lawson.. I think Lawson is the more NFL ready player but I think Floyd has a lot higher ceilling. Then you could trade a 4th to trade up to a late drafting team in the 1st to pick up Spence if he falls to around 28 and then you could draft someone like Billings or a cornerback. Floyd is interesting to me because he was not used well at all in Georgia. If he adds on 20 pounds with no lost of speed and gets added strength he could be amazing. He was thrown into coverage at linebacker more his last season at Georgia and that is why he doesn't have many sacks. He has an elite burst and can cover that is for sure.

I'd rather stay where we are and take Bosa if we're trading back to hopefully get Lawson, who may not even be there at 12. I don't think Floyd will transition well to the NFL as a pro as an edge defender rushing the QB.

I would love it as we easily land a second rounder for it. Then we could get Lawson, Floyd, Hargreaves, Conklin, Rankins, then have two stabs at another great talent, any combo of Spriggs, Alexander, Cravens, Calhoun, ifedi, Spence, WJIII, would make him insanely happy.

Why so much want to move down? the Ravens already have 7 picks in round 1-4? And all the hate for Buckner? what gives??

We have a top 4 pick this year (lets be honest neither of the QB's that'll be picked 1 and 2 are worth it)!!!

Absolutely were trades, I was just saying.

Agreed!! I don't even see why the Rams or Eagles traded up for these 2.
