Pre-Combine mock 2.0

This one will probably goes against the grain a bit but it's something different.

Round 1:

Quinton Coples, DT/3-4DE, UNC

Reiff and Martin are good choices but I'm not sure Rivera and co. will invest a high pick on offense with so many holes on D. I think they're content there for now. I'm also not completely sold with Kirkpatrick so Coples is the choice. I think Coples would be a great fit for us as a 3-tech. We sorely need some push from our DTs and Coples showed he could do that as a junior. Also brings some versatility to play 3-4DE. Would need to gain some weight though.

Round 2:

Vinny Curry DE/OLB, Marshall

I know this might seem out of leftfield. But, Curry is an explosive pass rusher that can come in as a 4-3DE and 3-4OLB. If the Giants showed us anything, it's that a relentless pass rush can make up for any secondary play. They absolutely shut out our division rival to a tune of 0pts. The other reason for this is that the Panthers don't seem as if they are going to spend much in FA. Therefore, we must build a strong DL through the draft.

Round 4:

Casey Hayward, CB, Vanderbilt

I have a feeling Hayward might go before the 4th. If he does make it to us in the 4th it would be a steal. Hayward is an absolute ball hawk which is great if our revamped DL does what it is suppose to. He can also lay a big hit and can stick with bigger receivers.

Round 5:

Cliff Harris, CB, Oregon

This is a pure value pick. Harris has legit character concerns but the talent is there. Harris will prob not start immediately but he can be our week 1 KR/PR. It's time to pull the plug on the AE experiment.

Round 6:

Juron Criner, WR, Arizona

Another value pick here. Criners draft stock depends on his health. He has great hands which will be a plus in this offense. Has the potential to be a starting WR in the league. Will also create mismatches with his size.

Round 7:

Drew Butler, P, Georgia

Baker might become a cap casualty this offseason. Butler has a strong leg and would atleast provide competition if not outright win the start gig.

No LB this draft but we can sign an experienced one in FA for cheap.

    • Bryce has been in the NFL 3 years and still looks like a very mediocre QB. Most games are nothing but mediocre plays with a highlight reel every now and then.  He is a very INCONSISTENT QB and it’s very fustrating. He does not deserve a 5th year option, even though the Panthers and all the dumb asses in the front office will give it to him.
    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
