carolina-chuck 2013 Mock Draft v5.0

[carolina-chuck]

Williams stock is going to fly up boards after the combine like Poe last year. Williams isn't all combine numbers though, can actually play.

I'm leaning towards receiver or corner though. Maybe o-line.

Yea he have been rising as of lately but I just don't know if it'll get him into the top15. If we're going DT, I just don't think Rivera will fall in love with him over a Richardson.

I'm okay with a receiver or olineman, but if we could land a OG like an Alvin Bailey or Uzzie in the 4th I may rather go that route. Possibly even getting one through FA.

Couple of my friends are pats fans and say Chung is not good in coverage, plus he plays SS so why not put him there? Plus dwan is a 3-tech not a NT, I'd rather get a big NT than another 3-tech(Richardson)

Like I said Chung is not one of my favorite player but money wise, he'd be a good pickup. Chung loss his job this season to someone and the Pats had to move McCourty to Safety.

I really do think Dwan can be decent as a NT. He has experience playin in a 34 D with Baltimore, which I think he'll be able to play the Nose. Teams like Minny and Philly are running two UTs. Not the best but it can work.

Chung is the worst in the business against the play action.

We talking money here though, "money". Chung is the cheapest we'll be able to afford. These Byrd talks can quit already.

Whos worst against the play actions, Naka or Chung?

In a right system, maybe Chung can redeem himself. I see Chung like a Thomas Decoud. Decoud isn't a good safety. I believe he's very overrated. Similar size and game imo. Decoud is just a notch better at this point bc of what Nolan is doing down there with different looks and coverages.

Yup, no one should be complaining if in a wonderful world we landed Chung. He's an instance upgrade over both Naka and Sherrod. Would instantly upgrade our secondary. For the price, I'd take him all day.

Don't want Richardson. Dwan and Neblett are UTs, not NTs. If our starting DTs are Dwan and Richardson, sure we'll get a few sacks from the DT position every now and then, but teams are going to keep running up the middle on us. They'll just scheme away from them. It would definitely be in the vein of the Jim Johnson scheme, but I'd rather get Star or Hankins in the 1st or Jesse Williams or someone comparable in the 2nd and have someone to plug that middle.

Chung is garbage. Dwan is NOT a NT. He's a 5 tech in a 3-4 and a UT in a 4-3. I like Woods, but id rather have Patterson. Think

theres more of a ceiling to him.

Edit: Hunter not Woods. Geting my WR mixed up...

^That man knows it all.

Like I mentioned, I know that Richardson is an "UT" and "NOT" a NT. I said that taking Richardson is clearly taking the BPA. Jon Jenkins and Jesse Williams are NT, but neither of the two arent really worth taking in the top15. Dwan has experience playing in a 34 D, which I think would really help him play the run for a NT. I can really see Dwan making the transition to a NT easily. Remember that he played DE in a 34 D both at Baltimore and Buffalo. Fans here are getting the assumption that Dwan is just a pass rushing UT because of the season he put up this year for us. Go back and look at his statistic and it'll show that he was never the pass rushing UT he is today. What does a DE in a 34 D do? They played the run and let the linebackers make the play.

Look at Ngata for example. He's clearly a 43 NT, but he's playing the DE spot for the 34 D in Baltimore. I just think that when you talk about both side of the ball, talking "Dline and Oline" that players can make easy transition anywhere on the line. A DE can move inside and play DT, a DT can move outside and play DE, an OT can move inside and play OG, and an OG can move outside to play OT. It's simply a mentality thing unlike talking about moving a MLB to OLB i.e., Jon Beason. The skillsets are different in these areas as do in the secondary also. Kuechly or Beason wont be as successful on the outside because now they'll have to drop back and cover faster TEs. But a Byron Bell can move from RT to RG, or a Travelle Wharton can move from LG to LT to RG/RT.

Its like repeating myself, but getting Chung is a money issue. Dont expect an exciting move like a Jarius Byrd. If somehow we land Chung, that'll be the most exciting move in the offseason. Patterson is my favorite receiver in this draft, but like I said he can easily be a 1st rounder next year. Patterson is going to put up an amazing combine and his stock is going to jump. A team like Seattle, Seattle, or Patriots is going to take Patterson in the first bc of what you said, "there's more of a ceiling to him".

Chung may just need a new scenery or system. We see this every year in the league. Just like a Donte Whitner or a Carlos Rogers. Both were average mediocre player with their previous team. Put them in a new system and all of a sudden both are playing at the highest level anyone can play.

Yea, I saw that you addressed that concern, I just disagree. Playing DE in a 3-4 doesn't qualify someone to play NT in a 4-3. Usually 3-4 DEs are guys that can play UT in a 4-3, which is what Dwan does. They're guys right around 300 lbs that are a little bit taller. I agree Williams or Jenkins would be gross reaches in the top 15, and if Star and Hankins are both gone I want Warmack, a WR or something else and take Williams or someone else that can play NT in the 2nd. I don't want to take a luxury pick with our first pick, which is what a backup to Dwan would be (like I said, in my opinion Dwan isn't a NT and wouldn't be as effective. Our run defense get no improvement). I don't think Dwan is big or strong enough to plug holes. He shoots gaps.
