Nagai's 1st round mock

[nagai]

Rofl I spent the whole day on this. Eh I'm sick.

The Panther's pick was based on Verge's tips. Not to lick his balls too much, but that guy actually knows personnel people from the organisation and has a good track record when it comes to predicting the draft. I didn't like the pick initially either, but I can deal with it. In Gettleman I trust.

I'm too lazy to put comments. Maybe tomorrow.

Hearing that SD likes Cooper more then Warmack, would be surprised if they go OL that they take Cooper over him and Fluker.

I'd also switch out Reid for Cyprien for the 49er pick.

looks good though and will probably be fairly accurate unless a major trade throws the draft off.

Thanks! I wonder how SD taking Cooper would change things. Would Dallas take Warmack over Fluker?

I put Reid there for the 9ers because I trust Harbaugh to get the most out of the most athletic safety in the draft.

edit: It's annoying me now, I'm changing Warmack for Cooper lol.

Cooper's ability to play all three interior position intrigues a lot of teams. He's also very athletic.

I wouldn't rule out the possibility of Reid going before Elam. Ive seem many mocks on NFL Network that constantly has Reid going as early as Cincy and Rams.

[carolina-chuck]

I'd take Vaccaro in a heartbeat!

[JawnyBlaze]

I'm still unsold on Vaccaro, but I'd also still easily take him before Patterson or probably Austin or Allen.

[rayzor]

i'm getting the sense that fluker is going to be taken ahead of warmack. in fact i wouldn't be surprised to see him go in the top 15 and warmack in the mid 20's.

Changed the Houston pick to Hopkins. Makes more sense imo.

[Rhell]

Teo to Denver makes too much sense, Foxie does love his linebackers. Vaccaro I am lukewarm about as well, but if our scouting guys think he is the best safety, I guess I would go with it. The top 5 seems a bit off to me, but there are not really any players that are sure fire top 5 guys anyway.

[nagai]

Adjusted to make way for Jamar Taylor.

Not to knock your draft because everyone is saying the same thing but when was the last time three ot went top 4? Is this draft just that devoid of talent or are those tackles just that good?

I don't really care what history has to say, I only care about what I think is likely this year. Fisher, Joeckel and Floyd are the top 3 talents, so they'll go in the top 3. The Eagles have a huge need at LT, especially with the type of offence they want to run. Need meets talent, Johnson goes at 4.
