He has us 9th and getting Brockers

Pretty close to what all believe will happen with Washington giving up the farm and St Louis coming out smelling like a rose.

To begin the third round, the Indianapolis Colts select Jeff Fuller, WR, Arkansas. Not to be too critical, however, because I do like the fact that he uses "5T" instead of "DE".

If the first 8 picks go the way of this mock (Claiborne, Kalil, Coples, and Reiff off the board), I think you have to take Brockers. The ONLY other choice (if you can't trade back) might be Jenkins.

Ingram is a good player, but I still see him as more of a 3-4 LB......but he MIGHT be in play.

I agree. OT wanters: too high for Martin and Adams. CB wanters: Too high for Jenkins and Kirkpatrick. DE wanters: A bit early for Upshaw or Ingram if you want them as a 4-3 DE (maybe not too early for 3-4 teams), and there are no OLBs or S worth a crack. Too early for DeCastro as well.

Brockers, however, might be a solid chip to play in seeking a trade (if you do not want Brockers). I hear NE would love him.

anyone else find it amusing that every single mock has the dolphins picking before us? The media has so little respect for the Panthers that they don't even give us a chance to win a 50/50 coin toss

i find it more amusing that anyone would look to this as a sign of some kind of bias against the panthers.

It kinda comes down to what we all know at this time. After Jacksonville, there are picks that will be valued all over the board. Jenkins at 9 or 17? Same with Still, Brockers, DeCastro and everyone else. Just doubt there will be a trade down scenario, so we will just have to like someone better at our pick and live with it.

Brockers would be my pick in this scenario also because of potential. Think Jenkins has reached his ceiling and we can get a good, not great CB in round 2.

Assuming its too early for any player mentioned is silly.I am guessing you are basing that opinion on mock drafts that you have seen.

Those mocks are never close to accurate outside of the top 5 or so. If its too early for them, then who do you think its not too early for? Do you see what I'm saying?
