MOCK 6.0 2/20/14

*HIGHLIGHTS* - Oakland gets a Boyd/Watkins pairing, Cardinals draft Carr, JAGS Trade Back into first

 

1. Houston Texans (2-14) - Johnny Manziel QB 

I think the owner and the residents of Houston will be a big factor for Johnny going to the Texans. I think Johnny’s new commitment towards becoming a better person and quarterback will definitely help his stock. He has been training with a former Bill Obrien assistant and he’s stated he WANTS to be a Texan. I think the Texans oblige. 

 

2. Atlanta Falcons (Skins 3-13) - Jadeveon Clowney DE

I still feel the Falcons will trade up for a shot at Clowney. Albeit the Browns will probably also try to trade up for Bridgewater. We will see I guess.  But, for now I think the Rams will trade this pick to the Falcons. Perhaps the Browns will be content knowing Bridgewater and Bortles will still be available.

 

3. Jacksonville Jaguars (4-12) - Teddy Bridgewater QB

I have been trying to not mock Bridgewater to us several times. But, I hold with such conviction that Teddy will be a Jaguar. It just makes sense. Him in a Jaguars uniform makes sense to me. Now for cliches… he has a great work ethic, has all the tools, and [BAD WORD REMOVED] we need a Quarterback. I think at this point in Caldwells mind its 1A CLOWNEY 1B Bridgewater 1C Mack

 

4. Cleveland Browns (4-12) - Blake Bortles QB 

 

5. Oakland Raiders (4-12) - Sammy Watkins WR 

 

6. St. Louis Rams  (4-12) - Jake Matthews OT 

 

7. Tampa Bay Buccs (4-12) - Greg Robinson OT

 

8. Minnesota Vikings (5-10-1) - Khalil Mack OLB

 

9.  Buffalo Bills (6-10) - Anthony Barr OLB

 

10. Detroit Lions (6-10) -  Taylor Lewan OT

 

11. Tennesse Titans - Zach Martin OT 

12. New York Giants - C.J. Mosley ILB

13. St. Louis Rams - Eric Ebron TE

14. Chicago Bears - Darqueze Dennard CB

15. Pittsburgh Steelers - Aaron Donald DT

16. Dallas Cowboys - Timmy Jernigan DT 

17. Baltimore Ravens -  Calvin Pyror S 

18. New York Jets - Marquise Lee WR

I like it, but I would substitute Bortles for Bridgewater as far as Caldwell's rankings/board.  That would leave us drafting Bortles in this scenario, but I think Houston takes him #1 overall anyway.

 

As for the rest of the draft, most picks look pretty good to me.  However, Cleveland is set at TE.  I think they would go with a WR there, possibly Beckham Jr.  I also think:  Ebron will drop, no way Evans lasts to #23, I don't think Tenn needs an OT.
