2012 Nfl Mock Draft


FDN

Recommended Posts

Hey guys, I've updated my mock draft for the end of the season/post combine/post FA

You can check it out here: 2012 NFL Mock Draft

Let me know what you think!

I disagree with you picking Brockers over Coples. We have Ron Edwards and Sione Fua to stop the run, and while they might not be as good as Brockers can be in a couple years, they should be able to muddle up the middle enough to slow teams down. Keep in mind Fua improved over the course fo the season, and he should be better this season now that he's had plenty of time in a NFL strength and conditioning program. They just threw him out there last season, he clearly didn't know what he was doing early on, and his core was too weak. This season will be much different imo, as he will have had the experience he needed, and he'll be stronger.

Now the case for Coples. We're going to score a lot of points this season. The Saints are going to score a lot of points this season. The Saints were 1st in total passing yards for the regular season, and 2nd in points. They have a super bowl caliber passing attack, and they want to throw deep to their best weapons. They're the best team in the NFCS, and the biggest barrier to our Panthers making the playoffs. They way you beat the Saints is with a great pass rush. It takes Brees out of his rythm, rushes him, scares him, blocks his vision, prevents him from stepping into his throws, casues passes to be batted down, and causes games changing sacks and possible fumbles. We draft Coples and here is how our pass rush will look when the Saints try to air it out:

CJ, Applewhite, Coples, Hardy. Or we can mix and match them however Rivera wants along with a LB blitz. That's why I want Coples.

No offence bro but u should go update it again.

I hate critiquing and criticizing someone's hard work mock results but I just don't dig the brockers thing man. He's got potential but hell I got potential too. It's hard to judge what we should do at 9 but I know we will get a solid player none the less.

I'm off and on so many draftee bandwagons in the recent weeks but hell i don't even know who I want now but it sure ain't brokers

    • I think his stats will depend on the development of the rookies and sophomore receivers, which isn't totally under is control. The eye test is a different story. Has to consistently look the part before you decide to pay him Purdy money. 
    • Interestingly I think we have kind of of gone through this as an organization. Richardson implemented an FO driven tank. Bad roster, no cash spent, coach uninterested. It may have been for different reasons but I think the results were the same. A team that wasn't going to win many if any games. We ended up with the #1 pick. Cam Newton came in and changed the franchise. It worked, but Cam himself pointed to the losing culture in the locker room needing to be changed. It probably took about 2-3 years for that to happen. Tank worked pretty damn well for us. Cam is one of one. Not another like him, everyone can't deliver on his draft status AND change a culture basically on his own.  So as an exercise here are the last 30 #1 picks. If you tanked and got to pick #1 how many of these guys do you think were worth it? Not just good players, but franchise changers. Guys who will take your culture and shift it so the tank was actually worth it. I would say maybe 9 or 10 guys would be worth a tank, pending the last 5 picks?    2025: Cam Ward (Miami (FL)) - Tennessee Titans 2024: Caleb Williams (USC) – Chicago Bears 2023: Bryce Young (Alabama) – Carolina Panthers 2022: Travon Walker (Georgia) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2021: Trevor Lawrence (Clemson) – Jacksonville Jaguars 2020: Joe Burrow (LSU) – Cincinnati Bengals 2019: Kyler Murray (Oklahoma) – Arizona Cardinals 2018: Baker Mayfield (Oklahoma) – Cleveland Browns 2017: Myles Garrett (Texas A&M) – Cleveland Browns 2016: Jared Goff (California) – Los Angeles Rams 2015: Jameis Winston (Florida State) – Tampa Bay Buccaneers 2014: Jadeveon Clowney (South Carolina) – Houston Texans 2013: Eric Fisher (Central Michigan) – Kansas City Chiefs 2012: Andrew Luck (Stanford) – Indianapolis Colts 2011: Cam Newton (Auburn) – Carolina Panthers 2010: Sam Bradford (Oklahoma) – St. Louis Rams 2009: Matthew Stafford (Georgia) – Detroit Lions 2008: Jake Long (Michigan) – Miami Dolphins 2007: JaMarcus Russell (LSU) – Oakland Raiders 2006: Mario Williams (North Carolina State) – Houston Texans 2005: Alex Smith (Utah) – San Francisco 49ers 2004: Eli Manning (Mississippi) – San Diego Chargers 2003: Carson Palmer (USC) – Cincinnati Bengals 2002: David Carr (Fresno State) – Houston Texans 2001: Michael Vick (Virginia Tech) – Atlanta Falcons 2000: Courtney Brown (Penn State) – Cleveland Browns 1999: Tim Couch (Kentucky) – Cleveland Browns 1998: Peyton Manning (Tennessee) – Indianapolis Colts 1997: Orlando Pace (Ohio State) – St. Louis Rams 1996: Keyshawn Johnson (USC) – New York Jets 1995: Ki-Jana Carter (Penn State) – Cincinnati Bengals
