Squirrels 1.0 Mock


Squirrel

Recommended Posts

First and foremost I think we will fix the LT position in Free Agency so I wont be mocking any OT here.  Just doing 4 rounds as after that it is just a crap shoot. 

 

 

1st round pick

 

Vic Beasley LB Clemson

 

Davis isn't going to be around forever and Vic would help ease the pain

 

 

2nd round

 

Senquez Golson CB Ole Miss

 

Would be a first rounder if he was 2 inches taller. 

 

 

3rd rounder

 

Stephon Diggs  WR Maryland

 

Panthers need speed and he also returns Punts. 

 

4th Rounder

 

 

Mario Alford WR WVU

 

Gettleman double dips again this time at WR and speed.  Alford has the speed for YAC's and can return Kickoffs.

Golson out of Ole Miss is an interesting guy. I have questions if Beasley could play stand up linebacker in the 4-3. If we did draft him, he'd probably play DE full time.

I want no part of Beasley. How do you expect a dude at 235lbs. to play DE in the NFL full time? Don't really like the fit in our defense especially as a LBer in the first round. We desperately need a playmaker on offense in the first round, protection up front, or a safety.

Looking at the future. Davis will probably retire after next season.

Are we really in position to be looking at the future in the first round of this upcoming draft? We have glaring holes at LT, WR, S, and bigger holes at CB, DE, RT, and RB2 (when DeAngelo is gone) than we have at LBer. That's probably the deepest position we have on this entire roster. We were competitive against Seattle but surrendered some untimely pressures because of Bell, dropped some huge conversions and could get no separation in the passing game, and got burned by the big play which ultimately lead to a loss. We aren't that far away from competing with the gold standard of NFL teams for four quarters on the road and drafting a linebacker in the first round isn't going to help us close the gap any faster this off-season. Glanton has TDs speed and performed admirably as a UDFA while Klein is solid. I suspect we will draft an outside backer in the middle rounds to improve special teams and provide depth but we aren't good enough elsewhere on our roster to take an OLB in a 4-3 defense in the first round with glaring holes elsewhere. The only position I want us drafting in the first round if we go defense is safety or DE if a blue chip guy falls to 25 for whatever reason.

Think they will take care of the LT position in free agency. Bpa in first round between Wr Lber DE or CB.

Well some LT is probably going to have to be a surprise cut in order for us to fill the need via FA. Roos---the only LT worth a damn---will likely retire.

    • Me, signing up for FanDuel Network, and then canceling FanDuel Network:
    • Smith-Wade for me. He has the path to some decent hefty snaps in Evero’s scheme. He held his own last year and improved as he continued to get snaps— If he makes some strides, could be a very capable nickel.  I agree with Sanders. Bryce had some trust in him that final Falcons game post crazy head-stand.  Bryce looked for him a lot that final game and made some critical catches to get us the W. Seems he’s put in major work so I’m hopeful about him.  Wallace will have an offseason under his belt. I like him a lot, was higher graded than most remember in his draft (I.e Brugler had him LB3/70 overall) but he isn’t as cerebral of an LB as we’re used to. I think he could thrive if we get D captain/film-junky type next to him— because right now that’s Jewell.  Still a bit cautious but love the talent. Rozeboom may snag some playing time from him if he’s still working out the kinks.
    • Didnt Canales already say starters are playing in the pre season? either way extra reps dont hurt but im not one of those people that think playing in the pre season would have saved Bryce from an awful start.
