Positions taken most often inside top 13 picks since 01

QB's 24 or 2 per draft

DT'S 23 OR 1.91 per draft

WR 21 or 1.175 per draft

OT 20 or 1.66 per draft

DE 17 or 1.41 per draft

LB 15 or 1.25 per draft

CB 13 OR 1.08 per draft

RB 13 or 1.08 per draft

S 7 OR .583 per draft

TE 2 or .166 per draft

G 1 or 0.08 per draft

After looking at that i went and looked at how many players made the top 13 big board at each of these 3 sources, ESPN'S Scouts inc., NFL.COM'S prospect grades and NFL draft scout.

The following players all made their top 13 players.

in order of highest average ranking:

Joeckel(T)

Warmack(G)

Star(DT)

Demontre Moore(DE)

Barkevious Mingo(DE)

Jarvis Jones(LB)

so theres 6 player's I deem as near locks to be off the board by the time we pick with Warmack possibly falling since Guards rarely go that high. Normally 1 RB goes in the top 13 but not likely this year so I could see Warmack sneaking in place of a RB.

History also tells us their will likely be 2 QB's gone so that brings the total to 8 off the board. 2 DT's are usually gone by the 14th as well and it appears Richardson is the most likely to go behind Star inside the top 13. Add in Milliner as an average of 1 corner goes and that takes the total up to 11 off the board. 2 WR's seems to be the norm as well and that means Patterson and Allen could be gone too. Now thats a total off 13 players. I'll add Fisher the OT and Werner the DE as prospects who are likely to go based of their big board rankings and historical amount of times their respective positions go in the top 13.

So to recap according to history and the 3 big boards I referenced from above here are the players I think are most likely to be gone by our pick at 14.

1.Joeckel OT

2.Star DT

3.Warmack G

4.Moore DE

5Mingo DE

6.Geno Smith QB

7.Jarvis Jones LB

8.Richardson DT

9.Milliner CB

10.Patterson WR

11.Allen WR

12.Fisher OT

13.Werner DE

Of Course if any qb's or other positions like LB that we have no need at move inside the top 13 then odds of a player at a position of need will fall to us increases.

If the draft does fall this way i'd probably look to go with Hankins or Vaccaro.

edit: Jarvis Jones (LB) was also in the top 15 of every big board I referenced. I removed a 2nd qb from being drafted to adjust for him.

No, it's not. It's one of the most important positions in the game and the only team that didnt know it were the Marty Hurney led Carolina panthers.

It is so blatant too. I have had a hard time these past four seasons watching teams gash us on the ground up the middle. We have not had capable DTs since Buckner and Jenkins.

    • I have been looking for a dropped pass list and all that comes up is QBs. And team stats. When I do receivers I get the passing stats for a handful that threw passes this year.    I wanted to be accurate but anyhow I was looking because thought I remembered reading where T Mac had more drops than XL this year.  One of you many smarter than me people here,I would appreciate it if you know how to pull that up, please do. Thank you.    And yeah I know that isn’t all there is to it I just thought it was interesting.  Of course what the hell is a drop lol.   
    • I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years. 
    • I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
