Quote:i'm not criticising your mock it's as good and as realistic for any i've seen going 50+ picks in

do i watch the games? no i come on here with absolutely no basis just for the kicks... no need to be condescending just because i disagree with you that wide receiver is our biggest need

i just really don't see the jags going wide receiver that high and this being a forum i feel like debating that point

sanders was second in receptions and yards for us last year whilst he was moved round the field and into the backfield for the sole purpose of getting him the ball to try make plays

i call that making an impact

is he going to be a number one or two receiver on the roster, no but i think he can be our number 4 on the roster and our punt returner for the forseeable future.

and right now as our number 3 he did a good job and should get another shot in the slot next year

just on the clowney point

clowney is used to being and really built to be a 4-3 de so i doubt houston go for him given that they have traded schaub and their main need is a qb

the rams have two excellent de's already and could use that number 1 pick on strengthening an area of need either wr or right tackle or trading for more picks over going clowney and then having to try and orchestrate a trade for one of those de's

the only people i can see trading for clowney is atlanta especially after tampa picked up michael johnson

cleveland i believe are going to run a 3-4 and have barkevious mingo for the 3-4 olb postion

oakland have too many needs to package picks.

added minnesota and atlanta would probably prefer to trade with someone out of their conference especially as st louis have already done far too well out of the rg 3 deal and are becoming a strong unit.

also it would cost less to trade lower down the order and caldwell has connections with dimitroff.

I would be very surprised if clowney or mack were not their for us at 3

i actually see mack more likely to go to houston and st louis as the rams are missing a piece in that front 7 next to ogletree and laurinitus and houston have a weak lb core in that 3-4. A dominant olb could be a huge boon for their defense

me if i had to go a top 8 no trades

i'd go houston teddy

st louis greg robinson

jags clowney

cleveland johnny manziel

oakland sammy watkins

atlanta khalil mack

tampa jake matthews

minnesota blake bortles

I wasn't trying to be condescending towards you. However, we obviously have a very different idea of what an "impact WR" should be. Sure, Sanders was 2nd in receptions for us, bt that's not saying much. He was 97th in the NFL in yardage, had ONE touchdown, and ONE play over 40 yards. The game seemed to big and too fast for him most of the time from where I sat. Far from an impact WR, so that's why I was half way serious when I asked if you watch the games.

Without any trades, I think the top 8 you have listed there could be very realistic. There will probably be two trades in the top 8 though, and maybe 3 trades if the Jets move up to take a CB.

1. HOU - QB B. Bortles

2. OAK - DE J. Clowney (from STL)

3. ATL - OLB K. Mack (from JAC)

4. CLE - QB T. Bridgewater

5. STL - OT G. Robinson (from OAK)

6. JAC - WR S. Watkins (from ATL)

7. TAM - OT J. Matthews

8. NYJ - CB D. Dennard (from MIN)

9. BUF - OT T. Lewan

10. DET - CB J. Gilbert

*Oakland bypasses the QB hype and trades up to nab Clowney to make up for some of their questionable free agent moves on the D-line.

*Atlanta fears Cleveland will snag OLB Mack at #4, so they ring up their old buddy Caldwell for a trade. They help Caldwell out by giving him an extra 3rd round pick, and Caldwell helps them out by going easy on them with only requiring a 3rd round pick for the swap. Caldwell gambles that Sammy Watkins is still there at #6, and in this scenario he is.

*Rex Ryan is appeased, and the Jets move up to take the best CB in the draft at #8. Minnesota trades down and takes Johnny Manziel at #18 after he falls.

*In round 2, since Oakland traded their pick, and Minnesota, Houston and Cleveland got their QB's in round 1, Derek Carr falls to the Jags at #39. We then take OG and OC in round 3.



1. WR S. Watkins

2. QB D. Carr

3. OC Weston Richburg

3. OG Brandon Thomas
