Mock 2.0

hard core.

[HeatCheck]

you saw Newton at florida?

Yeah, he barely played but you saw flashes. He fit the spread under Urban way more than Brantley.

It was one of those deals where he was never going to pass The Golden Calf of Bristol and he would just have to wait his turn. But he did the right thing and chose to transfer. As a fan, you didn't want to see him go to an opposing team but knew it was the best thing for him to do.

I dont think we need to draft a return specialist. We have talent, what we lack is the ability to block on special teams.

[jtnc]

I really don't like the Brockers pick.

I think the deal is our returners have the top speed but not the quickness to adjust to the NFL. Pilares looked very solid as a guy to have back there on kickoffs, but I think getting a guy that can do both KR/PR like a Joe Adams would be a great fit. Especially if you find a WR with enough room to develop into a slot guy as Smitty begins winding down over the next 3-4 years or so. Its like getting a Randall Cobb type that's not a conversion project.

[Lt Pinkerton]

I like Coples I think the guy could be a total monster. If we can't get him then I think we go with Decastro or Martin and solidify the O-line, and pick up the best defensive player available in the second, there are a lot of good guys there. If we can get Coples and someone like Martin, Burfict, or Jenkins in the second then that would be ideal.

I also agree that we need a coverage Will backer and I think Zach Brown is the perfect guy for TD's old position, however he will be a reach at 8. If we manage to trade down and pick up another second or first rounder then he could be the guy to target, and we could pick up Janoris Jenkins or Dontari Poe with our other pick. I don't really think Brockers is the right pick at number 8, I would rather have DeCastro, Coples, Kirkpatrick, or even Martin there.

Best case for me would be Coples and Burfict, those guys would really bring some elite talent to the defense, and all we would really need would be a CB and some depth at S and OLB. Those two players would solve most of our defensive problems.

I am iffy on Brockers. With us picking Top 10 we need a guy who can produce now not 2-3 years down the road. Along with that Brockers is still below Still in terms of DT prospects. The ONLY way I wouldn't mind Brockers is if we can get a CB in the 2nd or Kirpatrick and Claiborne are both gone and the OTs aren't impressive at the combine.

CB could easily be had in the 2nd, seeing as how deep the CB class is this year, but I'd really like a DE there.

I know a lot of people are probably going 'wut', but no matter how good your secondary is, if you aren't getting pressure, they're going to get eaten alive.

[Actionman0z]

Don't get it. Rivera makes it a point to say he likes what we have at DT, but people have us taking DT first.

Our secondary was pathetic to the point Meeks got himself fired yet we'll do nothing to improve the position.

The best defensive secondary is a pass rush, however, I think that we go CB/S in round 2.

bump because there is good discussion on brockers

[bleys]

bump because there is good discussion on hookers
