Quote:That's fine. I like the pick. He's been nothing but productive off the edge and got better each and every year for the Volunteers. I like what I see on the stat sheet and on his highlight reels. He's a better football player than an athlete running around in shorts and no pads. 

Unfortunately the NFL is littered with players that fit this description and didn't live up to expectations. I don't hate Barnett, but if he's taken before the 20s or so I think that team is going to ultimately wind up wishing they took someone else. 

 

I do like the rest of that mock quite a bit, except I still don't think we take a QB late. It doesn't make sense to me that we would give up on Allen already, and it makes even less sense to have Bortles being backed up by two day 3 QBs who haven't taken a single NFL snap. The FO saying they want to push Blake and that there isn't a mandate for him to start would be total [BAD WORD REMOVED] if that was the depth chart.
