2018 Fanspeak
|
First one of the year, I did the Fanspeak draft on difficult. Thought the way it fell out was great and the offense improved a lot and also got a stout corner to take Colvins place. I think my sleep pick was in the 7th. Not sure how he fell that far but Sills is 6'4" with 18 TDs on the year, a huge body for when we get in the redzone. Sills and A Rob on the edges with Goedert at TE and Westbrook in the slot would be almost impossible to stop if when we get inside the 10. Great draft though imo

These are fun to do despite being totally unrealistic. No way Goedert falls that far. He'll be a 2nd rounder, at worst. As far as your other picks, I love Rudolph at that spot and it is feasible he will be available. Where the quarterbacks fall will be very much influenced by how they do at the combine and Senior Bowl week. If Rudolph doesn't "wow" anybody with his arm strength at the combine, he will be selected after Rosen, Jackson, Darnold (if he doesn't stay at USC), Mayfield and possibly even Allen. With the likelihood of Smith, Cousins, Bridgewater/Bradford and Taylor going to new teams, the Jaguars will be in an excellent position to either draft their next quarterback or sign a free agent.
I also like your other picks, especially Hernandez and Miller. Don't know much about Ferguson's talent level for the NFL, but he'd be a solid late round pick to compete for back-up q.b.

Agree to cutting Bortles and Ivory. No way Colvin will be back- will cost too much for a nickel, even though he is very valuable to the defense. Your best idea is signing Pugh. I've targeted him for awhile due to his ability to play either guard or tackle at a high level combined with his relationship with Coughlin. I really don't know how I feel about Manning coming here. Whether he has enough left in the tank will be decided by our staff. Obviously Coughlin has a close relationship with him, but I trust T.C. to go with his head and not his heart when making this decision. Signing both Giants and having Jackson waiting in the wings might be the perfect formula to make this team a Super Bowl contender next season and beyond.

1) Mark Andrews TE - Oklahoma- Gives us a big mobile target. Great red zone threat, good route runner, strong hands. Good YAC. Really good prospect.
2) Wyatt Teller G -Virginia tech - Big mauling guard who's been one of the most efficient pass blocking guards in the country. Played 39 games for V-Tech. Nasty. Day 1 starter next year. 3) Jaylen Samuels - RB/TE/WR - NC State - Favourite prospect in the draft this year. 5'11 230. Legitimately can play several positions on offense. Great hands and route runner. Loads of rushing touchdowns. Plays in the slot, out of the backfield as a receiver. Also runs outside routes. Touchdown machine and has been the key cog for NC State. He's perfect as a backup running back, starting slot/TE. Basically Delanie Walker mixed with Kyle Juszczyk. Elite. 4) Allen Lazard WR - Iowa state - 6-5 big bodied possession receiver. Not the fastest but has extremely strong hands and is one of the best contested catch guys in college. Might struggle to get him here but the WR class is very deep. 6) Jalen Davis S/CB - Utah state - Nickelback. Big time playmaker with 3 TDs this year. Strong tackler. Can double at safety. Very similar to Xavier Woods and that San Diego state CB from last year Lazee. 7) Tyler Tezeno - G - Sam Houston - Small schools guard. 6'5 320 and surprisingly agile. Blocked for a screen heavy offense so he's good on the move.

Of course, if they did go the free agent route I wouldn't expect them to keep Bortles so they still would need to draft a quarterback to develop at some point in this draft. I do tend to agree with you about drafting our quarterback of the future in the first round, even if it means trading up a little. The big problem is none of these potential draft picks are slam dunks. As much as you love Mayfield and Rudolph, both of these guys come with a "buyer beware" warning. The same goes for Lamar Jackson, who is also a possibility when the Jaguars pick. My guess is that one of these three will eventually become a top 10 franchise quarterback while the other 2 will flame out. Mayfield is definitely the most intriguing to me, but he is kind of a natural "gunslinger" like Blake, although he is certainly much more accurate. His "behavioral" issues are also troublesome to me. How will he handle adversity, which he is likely to encounter in the NFL? Jackson's size scares me too much to take him, especially with all the running he does. With all that being said, I would prefer Rudolph as he has the best combination of size, accuracy and leadership. If the Jaguars feel his success is not simply due to playing in a conference that plays little defense, they should target him- even if it means trading up a few spots. As far as the mock draft without a quarterback, I agree with the the comment "it would be a great haul." Andrews has amazing potential and would make life much easier for whoever is the quarterback. I love the 2nd round guard, as this is still a need area and if he is a day 1 starter it would be a great pick. Samuels would be a great weapon for this team and become a fan favorite and the nickel pick would be a steal that late in the draft. Combine that draft with Tyrod Taylor or, dare I say, the new and improved Blake Bortles, and there is not much to complain about. Blake's future as a Jaguar will be determined by how he performs today, as well as in the playoffs. If he steps up his game against top defenses like Seattle, his critics (including me) will have to admit we were wrong when saying he'd never become a winning quarterback in the NFL.

I just don't find acquiring Kirk Cousins a very realistic scenario given how much we've spent to build the defense. Spending so much money on Cousins would mean we'd have to dump a lot of salary in the first 2-3 years and that seems very counter productive to me. I just don't see it happening. As far as acquiring Eli Manning, he's got very little gas in the tank and getting him would be more of a band aid than it would an instant fix. Even if we did land him, we'd likely have to draft a QB to take his place in the next 2 years or so. I just don't wanna pass up on getting a QB in this draft, since rarely do you see a class like this, with more than one guy who has the potential to be an instant starter. As far as QB's in this draft with "buyer beware" labels, that can be said for any rookie QB. No rookie is a sure thing. Andrew Luck was the most heralded QB I've ever seen coming out of college and even he has had his problems in the NFL. You can't be afraid to pull the trigger on a rookie, because of the risks. That's life. You can never improve unless you're willing to roll the dice every once in a while.

This one is on Matt Millers and difficult. I did this counting on us keeping Blake next year.

WR COURTLAND SUTTON SMU Reason: Assuming we lose either Robinson, Lee or Hurns from our primary trio. Sutton replaces one of them. 59: R2P27 RB NICK CHUBB GEORGIA Reason: Injury concerns with Fournette. I don't expect Yeldon to be back. Ivory is expensive. Chubb is explosive and a work horse. Would compliment the offense well. 91: R3P27 TE TROY FUMAGALLI WISCONSIN Reason: Respectable receiving threat. Lewis isn't getting any younger. Assuming Rivera, Koyack and O'Shaugnessy are more of the balanced type and aide in blocking. 129: R4P27 QB JOSH ALLEN WYOMING Reason: I am still thinking this team signs a veteran QB to replace Henne with legitimate threatening ability to Bortles. Allen is a young prospect with a lot of promise. Could be a good developmental player with starting potential. 205: R6P27 WR BRAXTON BERRIOS MIAMI Reason: I think he's an undersized guy but he uses that to his advantage. I've seen him flash in a lot of games this year for the Hurricanes. I think he would help out on Special Teams and replaces Greene who hasn't been able to stay healthy. 228: R7P9 CB KEVIN TOLIVER LSU Reason: Big, physical CB with a hit/miss to him from LSU. Adds depth and can maybe compete for a role on Special Teams as a rookie. 246: R7P27 EDGE ANDREW TRUMBETTI NOTRE DAME Reason: This was honestly a throw away selection for me. He was the top man on the board. I know little of him. A quick review of his stat sheet and overall size seems like he's maybe worth a shot here. ![]() "What do I know of cultured ways, the gilt, the craft and the lie? I, who was born in a naked land and bred in the open sky. The subtle tongue, the sophist guile, they fail when the broadswords sing; Rush in and die, dogs - I was a man before I was a king."
Matt Miller and Difficult setting
Offseason: Bortles kept at 19M AR15 franchised/1 year prove it deal Omameh resigned Lee/Lewis/Colvin allowed to walk Ivory/Hurns cut 27: R1P27 QB MASON RUDOLPH OKLAHOMA STATE We get our Franchise QB to groom for the future...while Bortles has looked good the past 2 weeks you don't pass on a QB of this caliber....worst case scenario if Bortles continues his good performance we have a elite back up and can hold ala Garropolo 59: R2P27 TE MARK ANDREWS OKLAHOMA Mercede's replacement we get a TE that can do it all and steps in as day 1 starter. 91: R3P27 WR ANTHONY MILLER MEMPHIS With Hurns and Lee gone the WR corp of AR15/Dede/Cole looks serviceable but Miller adds a new dimension that takes this WR corp to Elite status. 129: R4P27 OT DESMOND HARRISON WEST GEORGIA Wanted to get OL earlier but feel this guy could be the big sleeper in the OL class. 205: R6P27 QB RILEY FERGUSON MEMPHIS Still my favored QB if we don't get one in round 1...will realistically be gone by the 2nd/3rd but we double dip in case Rudolph flops ala RG3/Cousins. 228: R7P9 CB SHAQ WIGGINS LOUISVILLE Another CB to try and fill Colvin void. 246: R7P27 CB KEN WEBSTER JR. OLE MISS Has stated he is coming back for his Senior year but this would be ridiculous value as he is easily a 2nd-3rd round prospect.

TE DALLAS GOEDERT SOUTH DAKOTA STATE 59: R2P27 C BILLY PRICE OHIO STATE 91: R3P27 CB DUKE DAWSON FLORIDA 129: R4P27 WR AUDEN TATE FLORIDA STATE 205: R6P27 S TRAY MATTHEWS AUBURN 228: R7P9 LB NICK DELUCA NORTH DAKOTA STATE 246: R7P27 DL JOSHUA FRAZIER ALABAMA Colvin and AR walk. Lee is resigned. Hurns is kept. No QB was available at any spot worth drafting really, so in this scenario we play Bortles out on option and sign FA like Bradford/Kennum Not the best scenario to play out if Bortles reverts but it is what it is. Goedert is that play making TE we've been lacking. Price can play C or G, probably at OG if they are intent on keeping Linder at C. Tate is AR15-esque. Dawson replaces Colvin. Depth at LB and on DL. Not sure I like the Matt Miller board lol |
