Natalie Miller's mock draft 2.0

Recommended Posts

I actually had entirely forgot to link you guys to the mock that I had published in late February. So here it is. I am working on yet another one today and that should be published by tomorrow and I will share it here. Spoiler alert, my pick for us on both is the same.

I personally like Bryce better (still love Stroud as well). But what do you take from all the love of everyone pairing and talking Stroud to be the pick here.  Including Vegas who believes it.

I guess it makes sense. I still think it is Young though, he is just the best player on the board.

I think Bryce is the better QB, but the further into the draft season his size really concerns me more simply based on the way he plays the position. Dude has the Russell Wilson "The plays not over till it's over" mentality and scrambles and makes some amazing things happen, but dude takes some SHOTS while doing it. Those same shots are only going to get harder and more violent in the pros.

Other than that the guy is a baller.

I can say this so I will---Young did not throw at the combine and Stroud did--the people who we saw are naturally going to elevate his stock (since he did well) and see Young as injured or weak.  I think Bryce Young is the better QB right now---but the size is a factor for me----Most of the experts on NFL Network are talking like it is Young--

I can say that if we choose either, I am happy with that choice because I know they spent over a month researching it.  Levis or AR?  Not happy.

QBs are protected now. Verge, I see the logic here--

    • Possible, he is physical and a forchecker but not a needle mover, but i wouldnt mind it, although I think we have enough 4th line grinders right now between Carrier Robinson and Janakowski  down there, i actually really love our 4th line.            We need scoring in the top 6, and a RHD at this point its definitely coming via trade.            Rasmus Andersson I hear may be on the market, it feels like every couple of seasons someone links us to Erik Karlsson.       As far as centers go,  Marco Rossi (even though we have a ton of smurf already)     Jordan Kyrou is an intriguing option if he is available.           At this point i think Rod should just move Jarvis to his natural center position to give us a 1B center...   yes hes also a smurf but he plays way bigger than he is stylistically.

    • The problem with these summary stats and rankings is that they flatten out progression and assume an even performance throughout the year. His first 3 or 4 games of the season don't really tell you anything about his current level of capacity but more about where he started and what his floor was last year. Given his last several games were against playoff teams, that gives you an idea of his current ability coming into the season. But it will serve more as a floor than a ceiling given the upgrade in talent on offense. And a better defense should give us more stops which results in shorter fields and more opportunities. And going into his third year there is no reason to suspect he will regress. His success wasn't  based on being superhuman but being smart and taking what was the defense was giving him. Distributing to the other guys not trying to do it on his own. He was great at the end when pressured and consistently moved the ball. That makes him a great game manager which is what we need. Something that is easier to do and relies on everyone else rather than having to be a top physical specimen or do it on his own. No one can predict the future but to say we haven't improved much is crazy given just having the Browns anchoring the defensive line will shut down the run and make sure QBs won't be stepping up in the pocket.  Assuming Evero got the message to can the prevent defense and bend until you break philosophy.
