NCFAN's final pre-draft Mock (post Norman update)

Recommended Posts

1st: William Jackson-   I look at this kid and I see Norman.  With DL being so deep CB's will fall.  Jackson is big fast Athletic and a puzzle piece fit for a zone scheme.  Fits what Gettleman wants BPA and big.  Gettleman likes his big guys, reminds me of KB at CB. Won't be Norman right away but will certainly help vs Julio and Mike Evans twice a year

2nd: Sterling Shepard-Solid WR. Explosive, good route runner with great hands.  After back to back top heavy WR classes, the WR's will slide down the board.  Shepard moves right into Cotchery spot in the slot and becomes a Randall Cobb type player real quick for Cam.

3rd:  Carl Nassib- grabbing a corner at the top we have our sights on a potential good future DE to groom under CJ.  Trading away our 4th 7th and a future 5th or 6th (will be easy to let go since we should get a 3rd for Norman next year).  We slide up to the top of the 3rd and Grab Nassib who fell out of the 2nd.  Big Athletic with a top notch work ethic, has Gettleman drooling at the thought of tossing get him in our locker room among some of our stud DL

5th: Max Tuerk-  needs some bulking and work in the weight room.  Let Kalil mentor him until he is ready to retire to make a nice easy transition

I could def. see it happening. I think as far as WR's in round 2 goes it is more likely for Boyd, Michael Thomas, and Cooper being the best guys on the board. My  brain tells me Shepherd, Doctson, and Coleman go very early 2nd. 

Doctson and Coleman will go pretty early in the 2nd.  After that Michael Thomas because his size , some had him slotted the #2 WR prior to the combine, he fits what some teams want as a #1 or true #2.

Then you have Braxton which several teams are Extremely high on.  Have seen his name broker like everyone 1st if not in the 1st in several mocks.

Then you have will Fuller.  His combine caused him to shoot up.  Every year there's that guy that runs a 4.3 and goes from a round 3-5 guy to 1st-2nd guy (see Perryman and Dorsett last year, and Dorsett had Fuller hands)

Then you have the Shepard and Boyd's. I don't see more than 4 WR's going ahead of us in the 2nd especially with the amount of WR's taken round s 1-2 the last 2 drafts and the stacked DL class.

I'd be good with that too.  I like William Jackson's value at our spot, love Shephard, and think Nassib has a lot of potential.  Needs work though.  Would almost certainly be one of those guys that needs three years to develop into something serviceable.

    • Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
