Son of a beach...here's a mock

Here’s my office friendly annual draft mock thing:

Note: There are two players I really want that I didn’t draft: Devante Parker WR (no trade-up) and Jaquiski Tartt SS (Thought of other value)

 

 

Draft

 

1. Andrus Peat OT Stanford 6’7 613

 

peat-andrus-cardinal-white-tackle-blocki

 

Peat maybe perceived as a boom-or-bust by some but if there is a blue goose at the tackle position, it’s him.  I think Fisher surprisingly goes before him along with Scherff and Collins.  I also see teams picking more skill positions early this year given the success of the last draft.  Peat is also one of two guys I would be down for us drafting up for (+Parker)

 

(Other considerations: Landon Collins, Bud Dupree, Agholor, Kevin Johnson)

 

 

2. Quinten Rollins CB/FS Miami (OH) 5'11 195

Why I like Rollins: He can play outside, in the slot, and at FS as well.  What we were trying to do with Colin Jones at the end of last season could be Rollins’ role and more in our defense.   I was really thinking about J. Tartt here because he would give us a starting SS but think Coleman-Harper is better than what’s going on in the rest of the secondary and Rollins is a strong potential BPA. 

 

(Other considerations: Shaq, Tevin Coleman, McKinney)

 

 

3. Justin Hardy WR East Carolina 5'11 192

I know everyone expects a DL early, well…I expect a few DLs from this class but not early.  Unless Dupree falls in 1, or P. Smith in 2, I don’t see many strong fits.  Hardy is a good possibility and I think I speak for many who would welcome him into BofA. 

 

(Other considerations: Josh Shaw, Daryl Williams, Doran Grant)

 

 

4. Za’Darius Smith DE Kentucky 6'4 274

Didn’t wait too long for a defensive lineman.  Smith was just as a force as Dupree for Kentucky and I think he’s a great fit into our rotation ahead of Horton and Alexander.  If CJ or Ealy miss time, having another balanced-DE is big and this guy has 3-down potential.  

 

(Other considerations: Davis Tull, Buck Allen, Diggs)   

 

 

5. Dezmin Lewis WR Central Arkansas 6’4 214 (4.46 40)

This is a prospect teams are high on but since he’s from a small school, the media can miss mentioning…but damn can he just beat out CBs coming in at a fast 6’4 that ran a full route tree in college.  He high points the ball and has good hands.  There’s a lot to like about this kid. 

 

 

C5. John “Taz” Crockett RB North Dakota State 6'0 217

I like what I’ve read and seen on this kid as well.  Great size + speed combo, and has the potential of a 3-Down RB.  Ran his NDSU team to consecutive FCS championships…. Taz was a big part of that team being so dominant in recent years. 

 

 

C5. Quayshawn Nealy OLB/ILB Georgia Tech

 

Word is that we’re pretty high on Nealy and I can see why.  He could warrant a higher pick in the 4th so think this would be great value. 

 

 

6. Derrick Lott DT TN-Chattanooga

 

Lott is a sleeper at the DT position that could be fringe-roster maker or replace an oldie in Edwards or Cole.   

 

 

7. Austin Shepherd OT/G Alabama

 

Late flyer on another OL that could be a good Chandler/Velasco replacement in 1.

So is Peat really being rumored to drop that far down now?

 

I think it could happen but have a weird suspicion this year with a R1 trade.  Scherff is the most sure thing, Collins may start as a OG but will go high, someone will surprisingly grab Fisher early, then it allows Peat and Flowers to possibly be available when we pick.  A power run team could prefer Flowers as well so it really just depends on how things roll out.

OP, you put waaaay too much work into the mock draft only to turn everyone into drolling idiots with the ladies.  I can't decide when we should pick a WR because I'm too busy wondering what side dish would go well with that sand-covered ass.

    • Why do you say that. What leads you to think that we, as supporters, think his ceiling is 10-12. That's a ridiculous assumption on your part. The Seahawks won the SB with Darnold passing for 25 TD's, 14 Ints with a 99.1 rating for the season.  The Panthers with Young were at 23 TD's, 11 Ints and a 78.8 rating for the season. Not that far off. The problem with all the Young discourse around here is the assumption that the QB is the sole determining factor for a teams success. That just isn't true and it's certainly not how Morgan and Tilis are building the Panthers. 
    • Do we pay based on how many wins or how many games Bryce led us to wins? We've spent quite a bit on defense this year and hopefully they're much improved. If the Panthers do get to 10 wins, but Bryce has another year like last year where he showed up big in a couple, was present in a few, and forgettable in most, do we still pay him 50m per year?  I keep bringing it up because I think it's relevant, but Bryce was outplayed by a 6m per year backup last year. I don't see how it's possible to pay a top tier QB contract to someone who's putting up backup QB production. 
    • I understand tempering expectations, but there are some issues with his points. Walker was a 3 year starter, but Green Bay let him walk and no other team was quick to snatch him up. That says something. Freeling will compete to start. With Hunter, we rotate our linemen and even 5th round pick Cam Jackson played some meaningful snaps last year. Both Brown III and Wharton have underwhelmed since we picked them up. Hunter is a run plugger that we have needed. Hunter will play early, even if he isn't the "starter." Brazzell was described as one of Canales' favorite prospects in the draft and he has a speed element we have been missing. I think Canales is going to have plays drawn up with Brazzell on the field just out of pure excitement. It will be up to Brazzell to prove he can handle it, though. If he can, he will play. As far as our secondary picks, yeah they have to earn their stripes and Evero tends to lean on veterans. So they might take time, but if they can show they can play, they will see the field. Smith-Wade and Ransom did. Sam Hecht simply has to show he can handle the mental side of the NFL game. If he can, he is in a direct competition with Fortner, who's also relatively young, but also on his 3rd NFL team and doesn't have the power profile of Hecht.  I can appreciate that Gantt wants to pour cold water on what was perceived as an impactful draft, but facts are facts.
