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

    • Yep, I always said the best way to use him in the NFL is as a full time CB, and then get 8-12 offensive snaps a game. Half those snaps he's out there as a decoy so the defense doesn't know where the ball is going every time he's on the field, the other have are play calls with him as the first read, and likely trying to get it into his hands quickly to let him make plays with his athleticism.  That also would mean he needs less practice time on offense too, as he's not trying to get his routes/timing down with the QB as he'd be running a bunch of quick hitter routes or screens to get it in his hands. How NFL GM's didn't see this is beyond me (or maybe some did and it's why the Browns traded the pick and it was just the Jags who were dumb enough to think he'd be able to play both ways full time at an elite level.
    • Also reading this thread again and seeing that was a clear WoahCam alt, it really makes me wish he was still around to hear his takes on how "his guys" are doing this year. Shedeur can't beat out Gabriel for the #2 job behind old man Flacco, Hunter is struggling on offense and doesn't have a clear role, while T-Mac is proving to be exactly who I said he was and the guy WoahCam was very much down on for a while until he said he was coming around on him, lol
    • Yeah, it really seems like they made that move legitimately expecting him to be a two way player which is just crazy. You just can't be a two way player in the modern NFL. The obvious approach with Hunter was to have him focus on being a CB first and basically motivate him by telling him that the better you play on defense and the more comfortable you are on the field there, the more comfortable we're going to be putting more on your plate by carving out a bigger piece for you on offense but likely always limiting that to maybe 10-12 snaps a game at most on offense. Starting him out primarily at WR was just insane. At least they quickly saw that and adjusted but they really blew it with the off-season/preseason approach and it's causing Hunter to play catch up.
