Meh. Mocks are mocks. Largely a waste of time, and hardly worth a brouhaha.

Lance Zierlein at NFL.com mocked us Cam Robinson. Now you tell me what's OBVIOUSLY wrong with this picture:

Cam Robinson - OT, Alabama: Robinson at No. 8 would be way too early for my taste, but he has tremendous size and power as a run blocker, and the Panthers might feel they have to reach a bit to find help for Cam Newton.

Yeah, but that position makes sense, because Robinson would be at a need (even though he isn't that good or worthy of the 8th pick).  Now a CB?  When we Drafted three last year?  That's just horrible dude.

Not if he's deemed the BPA. You, yourself, have derided Worley as a bust of sorts, so another high quality CB should be welcome, right?

Should be welcomed?  Maybe.  But, Drafting 3 CBs the prior year, I highly doubt another Rookie would make sense.  A Veteran at that position on the other hand?  Yes.

Or Barnett.  

If Foster and Barnett are both on the board, I gotta go with Foster. Luke's noggin' insurance and will allow us to boost our talent rotation on the outside.

A quality DE can be had with pick #40, IMHO. But I wouldn't be mad if we ended up picking Barnett at 8. In this situation, I just think Foster is the bigger talent.

Zach Cunningham is going to be a stud LB in the NFL too. In a nightmare scenario for us where all of our guys are gone at 8, and we couldn't trade down, I would even consider Cunningham at 8. It wouldn't be a nightmare in that Cunningham could do the same things Foster will, but because there is a bit of dropoff between the two, and Cunningham could probably be had in the 15-25 pick range.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
