JO Mock Draft 1.0

[JO_75]

1.    Cleveland Browns- Myles Garrett DE Texas A & M: Much like the Texans in 2014 when they took Clowney over a QB, I don't see the Browns passing on Garrett. Good building block for Greg Williams.

2.    San Francisco 49ers- DeShone Kizer QB Notre Dame: What to expect out of John Lynch? Who knows, but they do need a QB. Kizer is here for now, unless they like what they see out of Watson leading up to the draft. 

3.    Chicago Bears- Jonathon Allen DT/DE Alabama: They could fall for Watson but Allen is too good to pass up. If the Bears plan on winning the NFC North, they have to get to Aaron Rodgers and Matthew Stafford.

4.    Jacksonville Jaguars- Leonard Fournette RB LSU: When the Giants won their Super Bowls, they had backs like Jacobs and Bradshaw to compliment Eli Manning. Fournette can be the compliment Bortles needs to take pressure off him and have a good running game to control the clock.

5.    Tennessee Titans(via LA)- Mike Williams WR Clemson: The Titans reportedly like Williams and he would make for a great number one for Mariota. 

6.    New York Jets- Marlon Humphrey CB Alabama: Revis Island is sunk. Revis is old and his age showed big time last season. The Jets grab his replacement taking advantage of this great corner class.

7.    Los Angeles Chargers- Jamal Adams S LSU: I had Hooker here but with his recent surgery I expect him to drop, a little. The Chargers missed Weddle, and get his replacement here.

8.    Carolina Panthers- Solomon Thomas DE Stanford: Charles Johnson is a free agent, if they bring him back this pick changes. For now, the Panthers get a stud pass rusher as they look to rebound and get back to the playoffs in 2017. 

9.    Cincinnati Bengals- Derek Barnett DE Tennessee: If the Bengals cut bait with  Adam Jones for his latest stupidity, this changes to Lattimore. They need someone opposite of Dunlap, and Barnett could provide exactly what the Bengals need to jump the Steelers & Ravens in the division.

10. Buffalo Bills- Deshaun Watson QB Clemson: Someone will fall in love with Watson. Whether it's the 49ers, Jets or Bills remains to be seen. With Tyrod Taylor expected to be gone, the Bills finally hope they found their franchise quarterback in Watson. 

11. New Orleans Saints- Reuben Foster LB Alabama: The Saints defense is still a mess, taking a LB like Foster could help turn things around. 

12. Cleveland Browns(via PHI)- Malik Hooker S Ohio State: I'm dropping Hooker for now but not too far. The Browns need safety help and take advantage of a top prospect falling to them. 

13. Arizona Cardinals- Corey Davis WR Western Michigan: Fitzgerald told ESPN that he is coming back for 2017 but they need someone for the future. 

14. Philadelphia Eagles(via MIN)- Dalvin Cook RB Florida State: Carson Wentz is going to have input on what the Eagles do this off season and a RB like Cook will most certainly take pressure off Wentz. 

15. Indianapolis Colts- Marshon Lattimore CB Ohio State: Chris Ballard knows the impact of a talented corner as he was there when the Chiefs drafted Marcus Peters. This will provide a huge boost to the Colts defense that badly needs improving.

16. Baltimore Ravens- Quincy Wilson CB Florida: I think it's time we get a legit corner opposite Jimmy Smith. We can not go into 2017 with Wright as a starter, Tavon will make for a great nickel and a solid 1-2-3 punch with Smith/Wilson/Young and Double W(Webb and Weddle) at Safety.

17. Washington Redskins- Zach Cunningham LB Vanderbilt: The Redskins can upgrade from Will Compton and Mason Foster. 

18. Tennessee Titans- Jabrill Peppers S/LB Michigan: Tennessee grabs their Safety of the future. The Titans need to upgrade their secondary, and get a major boost here,

19. Tampa Bay Buccaneers- Christian McCaffery RB Stanford: With Doug Martin's suspension and the fact he's cooled off since his rookie year, the Bucs are ready to move on from him. They may trade ahead of Philly for Cook but for now take the third best RB in this class.

20. Denver Broncos- Cam Robinson OT Alabama: No matter who the Broncos franchise QB is, Denver needs to upgrade their protection. Robinson is great value here and can immediately start at right tackle. 

21. Detroit Lions- Caleb Brantley DT Florida: They took A'Shawn Robinson last year but having someone who can grow along side him for the next 8-10 years would be ideal. 

22. Miami Dolphins- Taco Charlton DE Michigan: Mario Williams is likely to be released, and Miami needs some young pass rushers. 

23. New York Giants- Jarrad Davis LB Florida: Kelvin Sheppard is a FA and will need to be replaced. 

24. Oakland Raiders- Malik McDowell DT Michigan State: The Raiders need to improve their defense, as they were ranked toward the bottom of the league. If the Raiders want to take the next step, improving the defense is a must. 

25. Houston Texans- Mitch Trubisky QB North Carolina: The Texans ownership has already said Osweiler will have competition next year. Trubisky will fall as soon as the height concerns(shorter than what North Carolina lists him at) become reality. That won't stop Houston as they are in need of a true franchise quarterback.

26. Seattle Seahawks- Ryan Ramcyzk OT Wisconsin: The Seahawks offensive line was the weakest part of the team in 2016. An upgrade at OT is needed and Ramcyzk will give a boost to Russell Wilson's protection in 2017. 

27. Kansas City Chiefs- Takkarist McKinney OLB UCLA: Dee Ford is entering a contract year, will KC give him the money he's looking for? If not, they can prep another pass rusher to take over when he leaves.

28. Dallas Cowboys- OJ Howard TE Alabama: The future after Tony Romo is clear, Dak Prescott. Jason Witten is playing at a high level but grooming his successor would be wise. If this happens, Dallas' offense will be set for the next 10-15 years.

29. Green Bay Packers- Sidney Jones CB Alabama: The Packers secondary makes our secondary look good. An upgrade is badly needed as they can not continue wasting away what time Aaron Rodgers has left(Turns 34 in December)

30. Pittsburgh Steelers- TJ Watt OLB Wisconsin: James Harrison may comeback in 2017 but they need to find some young blood. Watt would provide Pittsburgh a talented pass rusher opposite Bud Depree.

31. Atlanta Falcons- Dan Feeney G Indiana: Chris Chester is a free agent, and part of the Falcons success is because they invested in their offensive line. They continue doing so here.

32. New  England Patriots- Tim Williams DE Alabama: Yeah Williams is likely to drop to the second round but the Patriots did pick up Michael Floyd after his DUI. Chris Long and Jabaal Sheard are free agents, so the Patriots take a gamble on a troubled  player and will be called geniuses and that this was a great move, opposed to someone else taking him and being called a bad pick.

Ravens Round 2-4:

Round 2, Ethan Pocic C LSU: This may be a reach in the second but Travis Frederick was a reach when he was picked too. An upgrade over Zuttah is needed, and giving him competition may light a spark under him. Or Pocic will out perform him, take over and help lead our running game to great success like he did for Leonard Fournette. 

Round 3, Tyus Bowser OLB Houston: We pay lots of attention to the Senior Bowl, Bowser was the sack leader for Houston and showed off his coverage skills during senior bowl week covering a first round prospect in OJ Howard. Ozzie and co will snatch him up and make him another senior bowl standout drafted by the Ravens.

Round 4, Cooper Kupp WR Eastern Washington: We haven't addressed WR yet in this draft but something tells me we may do so in FA like we always do. So while it took a while, we finally get that WR to pair with Perriman.

[trevorsteadman]

While I like the picks I don't think Kupp falls out of the 3rd or possibly even out of the 2nd round after his senior bowl hype. With how shallow the wide receiver position is in this draft, I think he is a 2nd round talent. I do like the value of Bowser at round 3 though.

[jboy19]

I really enjoyed reading this. Not really much I would dispute on there. I wouldn't expect the Texans to go QB though, Ramczyk might be a good target for them since Derek Newton might have to retire.

 Love it but no way in hell does kupp last until round 4. There is  talk of him sneaking into the back end of the first. Realistically  I  see him being taken in the teens in the 2nd. Everything else is spot on. Don't think Jones falls that far but certainly possible.

[January J]

How awesome would it be to take a guy named BOWSER.  Maybe he can kidnap that princess Brady in next years AFCG

Best comment of the week right here.

[RavensDieHard21]

I certainly like this draft, but were you assuming we won't get the third round comp? I hope we do,but some other mock drafts have doubted it.

Pocic is no reach at all. He is a huge upgrade at C and could literally elevate the whole line. He is really tall though so I hope he continues to win the leverage battle. 

 

 

[raven94]

I'm ok with this draft. I'm a huge fan of trading back and getting more picks, but in this scenario if you're telling me that we can't trade and all of my top guys are gone then sure I'll take Quincy. It addresses a need and isn't a reach at all. In regards to a 3rd round comp we will get a 3rd round comp. Comp's are actually based off of contracts that FA's sign, not so much the accolades and usefulness that they are tied to them. KO signed the 3rd largest contract last season and it was a doozy of a contract by the raiders. We will get a 3rd round comp. I also feel like in round 3 there will be plenty of stars and great players left to choose from. I'm not saying that Bowser isn't a good player but I think there will be better options available in round 3. I just hope people realize that there are at least 30-42 players who would get a 1st round grade, and there are probably about 40-50 players who would get a 2nd round grade. This draft is one of the more loaded drafts in recent memory. In your mocks don't be afraid to put someone in a lower round if it's congruent from what you see on tape or if you think he falls for some reason.

I don't think it was third because Jackson got +80 million--don't quote, I'm too lazy to look up exact number lol, Osweiler got 72, Vernon got 85 then I think maybe KO got the next largest? 

[raven94]

Ok that's fair. Either way I knew we would get a 3rd. KO may have had the 4th largest but it still equates to a 3rd Rd comp

As long as they don't have a Mario or Luigi, Bowser shouldn't have to worry. 

[Adreme]

I can't see Indy passing on OLine after how bad it's been and how important Luck is to them especially when there chief competition has built a fearsome pass rush.

[PurpleCity5]

Kupp is getting too much press and recognition to fall to the 4th. Doubt that happens unless something out there we don't know about him comes out. 

I like the other picks, haven't studied everyone but it makes a ton of sense for us to pick a center if we don't address one via FA.

That is true. I see their top needs being OL, RB and Edge. With the lack of premier tackles in this draft, I could see them taking Cook, or even Ramcyzk if he is still there. Possibly even trading back for Feeney or Pocic as well.

A trade back for Feeney would be a great move for Indy.

[Bruce_Almty]

Where the Ravens are picking they may not get the #1 or 2 prospect but at 16 they have several options. Whomever they select I just hope he pans out for us. Really like the Pocic, C, pick in the 2nd.
