Interesting exercise, but one of the hangups for me in a lot of the sims is that moving back often yields a bunch of picks, and late picks at that. I just don't know that we want or need a 10-pick darft, it'd be hard to find spots for that many rooks.

I guess if you're looking to scapegoat the GM, load him up with a ton of picks that won't make the roster, fuel the fires just a little more, right?

Yeah, like I said, I didn't try to move around any more because I wanted to see the players around those spots. In an ideal draft I'm turning some of those later picks into a 3 or maybe a couple 4s. I'd be really happy coming out of this draft with Haynes and Zinter though. SVP is not my favorite at center, but I think he's going to make a solid pro and is likely an upgrade over Fortner. Getting Brown and Hall, Jr.? That ends the "we aren't strong enough" problem on the D line. I'd rather have 8 guys total: 3 Oline, 2 DT, 1 Edge, 1 WR, 1 Safety. The RB, QB, and TE were luxury just based on keeping all those extra late rounders.

This is exactly how the draft should have went last year. Get the big guys early, take the luxury/developmental guys later with all of those day 3 picks.

Defensive Tackle, Guard, or Center please.

As thought he dropped weight for the Combine. He was 186 at weigh in last Fall Camp. Should be back up there soon and then 190 by 2nd year should be attainable

After today...

1st ... Kool Aid
2nd ...  Keon Coleman
3rd...  Cooper Beebe

If not those exact players...

1st ... corner
2nd... WR
3rd...  OG

I wouldn't care after those 3 players.

The Other Jag Forum: Duval Football Fans.

Brandon Scherff is no longer that dude.   Next season I want him gone.

If the draft fell like this I would love this pick. Would love Fuaga as well but i don't think we go oline in the 1st

This is my post-free agency mock assuming no other major moves are made prior to the draft.

Rd. 1 (17):  Quinyon Mitchell. (My favorite cornerback in this draft)

Rd. 2 (48)  T'Vondre Sweat ( a little risky due to weight, but will command 2 blockers allowing Armstead to thrive)

Rd. 3 (77)  Xavier Legette. (traded up to get him. Needs to work on route running and occasional drops, but his rare size-speed combination is undeniable; a potential future #1 receiver)

Rd. 3 (96)  Christian Haynes (shocked he was still available here. Will replace Scherff after this season as starter and will be valuable depth at guard/center this season)

Rd. 5 (142) Mason McCormick (developmental player on offensive line who likely will be a guard. Good small-school prospect)


As with all mock drafts, some of these players are unlikely to be available (especially Legette and Haynes) where they were selected here. The failure of this draft was the inability to find another Edge rusher to help Allen and Walker. I refuse to reach for any player due to need; this never turns out well. Hopefully they can find another viable pass rusher who gets cut during the pre-season or sign an inexpensive one year player like Bud Dupree who might have one good year left).

This draft was kind of like the opposite of Baalke's terrible 2023 draft in which he went for quantity rather than quality. All 5 of my players will not only make the team, but are also of making big contributions this season with the exception of McCormick who will need some time to develop.

This is perfect in my opinion. Hits every major need. Love the last two picks especially. Been looking at McCormick more and more. I have also been looking at the Janke twins that played receiver up there. Would be a good story if they both end up in the NFL and make a team. Good day three options or guys worth bringing in after the draft ends.

Traded with the Rams here, swapped 17 and 96 for 19 and 52:

19th - Adonai Mitchell - WR - Texas
48th - Ruke Orhorhoro - DT - Clemson
52nd - Cooper Bebee - G - Kansas St.
114th - Kalen King - CB - Penn St.
116th - Khyree Jackson - CB - Oregon
153rd - Javon Foster - OT - Missouri
212th - Cornelius Johnson - WR - Michigan
236th - Tip Reiman - TE - Illinois

Another one, no trades, went more WR depth this time with GREAT value in my opinion.

17th - Quinyon Mitchell - CB - Toldeo
48th - Troy Franklin - WR - Oregon
96th - Maason Smith - DT - LSU
114th - Malik Washington - WR - Virginia
116th - Brandon Coleman - G/T - TCU
153rd - Tahj Washington - WR - USC
212th - Nehemiah Prtichett - CB - Auburn
236th - Nelson Ceasar - EDGE - Houston

Favorite one so far, again, no trades, some real head turners with players dropping as far as they did, unlikely it happens in real life, but, I can dream:

17th - Joe Alt - T - Notre Dame
48th - T'Vondre Sweat - NT - Texas
96th - Josh Newton - CB - TCU
114th - Brandon Coleman - G/T - TCU
116th - Javon Baker - WR - UCF
153rd - Theo Johnson - TE - Penn St.
212th - Myles Coles - EDGE - Texas Tech
236th - Ainian Smith - WR/KR/PR - Texas A&M

Definitely the best of your 3. This is the first time I've seen Alt drop that far, but he'd be a major steal. Sweat is my favorite nose tackle and picks 3-7 all have a good chance to not only make the team but contribute early.

I like it, but 3 wr? I'd dig for some other depth esp at 153.
