NFL 1st round mock

Recommended Posts

1. Kansas City Chiefs

Mike Glennon, QB

They need a qb, period, without a qb they cannot win. They take the best one in the draft and become an instant contender. Geno Smith could also goes here, depends on the combine.

2. Jacksonville Jaguars

Bjoern Werner, DE

By far the best player in the draft. They need a qb, but bringing in The Golden Calf of Bristol and drafting a qb in the 2nd is what I see happening.

3. Oakland Raiders

Star Lotulelei, DT

Tied for the best DT in the draft, the Raiders get a dominant play and the Gerald Mccoy level.

4. Iggles

Jake Matthews, T

The Eagles need help on the o-line, so they take the best tackle available with a golden blood line.

Detroit Lions

Dion Jordan, DE

The Lions need pass rush on the outside pretty bad, and Jordan is a freak of nature who will fit perfectly right next to Suh.

Cleveland Browns

Damontre Moore, DE

Browns need someone opposite Sheard that can create pressure, Moore is a top 10 player in the draft and has the ability to be a top 5 DE in the league. The defensive front in Cleveland will be scary.

Arizona Cardinals

Luke Joeckel, T

Arizona needs to protect their QB, and Luke is the perfect prospect to do so, some have said he is the top tackle in the draft, but I don't quite see him being better than Matthews. No need for a qb here, as they would not be able to protect him.

Buffalo Bills

Geno Smith, QB

The second best qb in the draft and a hell of a playmaker, the Bills need a future and Geno can easily be a franchise QB.

New York Jets

Jarvis Jones, LB/DE

I am not sure if he is worth the risk here being as he has some major health concerns, but the Jets need a pass rusher and Jones is a freak of nature otherwise. Hopefully he works out.

Tennessee Titans

Demarcus Milliner, CB

The Titans were straight up awful in the pass D category, and they need a serious boost at the DB position. Milliner is the best CB on the board, the pick just makes sense.

San Diego Chargers

Taylor Lewan, T

The Chargers need to protect Rivers, and their new coach will most likely make that his number 1 priority in the draft by taking this super talented tackle.

Updating more later today.

Yea, no to Allen in the top 5. I definitely agree we need to get a top prospect WR soon, but not at that kind of reach. There are no special WRs this year, in my opinion. Not much separating the first round WRs and second round ones. A Tackle in the first (O or D) and BPA WR/FS/OL in the 2nd would be the way to go, I think.

Allen perfectly warrants a top 5 pick, he is a better prospect than Blackmon, and has all the tools of a top wr. Yes, he is not the fastest guy ever, but has enough burst to be elite. He reminds me of Dez Bryant, you know, without the attitude problems.

    • Several Huddlers mentioned the states of other position groups in the WR evolution thread, so I figured... Why not? Let's throw something about the OL together. Snap counts btw include ST, but JJ Jansen is not included because it would be an insult to the GOAT for him to not have his own thread (which I'm not making).   2023: Revolving Doors Projected OL: Ikem Ekwonu, Brady Christensen, Bradley Bozeman, Austin Corbett, Taylor Moton Week 1: Ikem Ekwonu, Brady Christensen, Bradley Bozeman, Chandler Zavala, Taylor Moton Week 18: Ikem Ekwonu, Gabe Jackson, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen, Taylor Moton Snap Counts: Ikem Ekwonu (1,201), Taylor Moton (1,201), Bradley Bozeman (1,149), Calvin Throckmorton (544), Cade Mays (486), Chandler Zavala (403), Nash Jensen (334), Austin Corbett (261), Gabe Jackson (205), Justin McCray (84), Brett Toth (80, Brady Christensen (79), David Sharpe (24), Ricky Lee (24), J.D. DiRenzo (14) What Happened?: OL Hell. Corbett was out most of the season and then was reinjured shortly after returning. BC only got to play week one (finishing the game with a torn biceps). The interior became a weekly shuffling of overwhelmed rookies, emergency vets, and waiver claims to try and survive the season. BY9 ended up being the second most sacked rookie QB of all time (now third after Caleb Williams' rookie campaign). The team ended up starting 6 LGs and 7 RGs (in total, they played 8 different LGs and 9 different RGs). There was constant interior pressure, missed stunts, and zero chemistry. This was an insane fall off when the OL looked to be a strength at the end of 2022, but there was a scheme shift from a power run game to a lot more zone. Verdict: Icky and TMo were the glue while Bozeman was stuck between a turnstile and a parking cone. These three did their best to be the glue, but there was only so much that could be done with the injury issues and catastrophe that would end up being the coaching staff. 2024: Changing of the Guards Projected OL: Ikem Ekwonu, Damien Lewis, Austin Corbett, Robert Hunt, Taylor Moton Week 1: Ikem Ekwonu, Damien Lewis, Austin Corbett, Robert Hunt, Taylor Moton  Week 18: Ikem Ekwonu , Damien Lewis, Cade Mays, Chandler Zavala, Taylor Moton Snap Counts: Robert Hunt (1,022), Damien Lewis (999), Ikem Ekwonu (963), Taylor Moton (899), Cade Mays (502), Brady Christensen (448), Austin Corbett (292), Chandler Zavala (259), Yosh Nijman (255), Jarrett Kingston (25), Andrew Raym (4), Brandon Walton (4) What Happened?: Solved the LG + RG issues by reuniting Lewis with Canales and paying the best RG in free agency (Hunt). Corbett again didn't finish the season, but Cade Mays was brought back and he filled in admirably. BC played almost every position on the OL and provided a valuable back-up + OL6. Zavala even looked better and more comfortable. Icky continued to show promising development as well, earning himself the team picking up his bonus option. The team churned the bottom of the group a bit, using special teams as a way to evaluate them. Verdict: The team has four of the five OL spots now occupied with true starters for the following 2 - 3 seasons. The results showed on the field as the offense became who carried the team through the season. The team was left in a position to develop depth and find a long-term solution for the center position. 2025: What 2023 Should've Been? Projected OL LT: Ikem Ekwonu  LG: Damien Lewis C : Austin Corbett/Cade Mays RG: Robert Hunt RT: Taylor Moton What Might Happen?: The biggest question mark is obviously the center position and who comes away as the starter? Icky and TMo have been the only constants on this OL, but there was rumours this offseason that TMo has knee issues. Icky is going to be due a payday soon as well. BC provides a high-quality second-stringer at every position, but the team still needs to develop some young backups. Zavala and Kingston both provide depth at guard, but the team looks a little thin at tackle with Nijman and Walton being the next two up there. If the starting unit can remain healthy, especially the tackles, the team can continue to build off of the progress that they made in the second half of the 2024 - 2025 season.  
    • Darin Gnatt made a comment on the Kyle Bailey show yesterday that it’s night and day with all positions since 2023. He stated that you can see the level of competition is much better and deeper because each group now has not just the starter competition but general roster competition which has been lacking for years. You’re gonna see Panther players actually picked up by teams at final roster cuts.
    • important perspective to have. as easy as the schedule is, it could take 2-3 games for it to start clicking for the young and new ones.
