Live online mock - for what it's worth

Let's throw out a theoretical. Let's say Haha and Mike Evans are both available at #13. Then what? I don't think I could pass on Evans that far down.

Since I'm an advocate for Watkins at #2 (or Mack if they view him as a fit), I would want HaHa. With the lack of safety depth in this draft, I think the Rams need a safety at 13 or in the second. The CB depth (and especially the WR depth, if they don't pick Watkins) will hold up longer.

Of course, if the Rams can't trade down from #2, maybe they trade down from #13 to pick up an extra day 2 pick, which could eliminate the top 1-2 safeties and the top few CBs, depending on how far they would move down.

Look at it this way. Would you rather end the first 4 rounds with Watkins,HaHa,Antonio Richardson, Louchiez Purifoy and Dakota Dozier or Watkins,Gilbert,Deone Buchanon,Billy Turner and Dozier??

That is pretty much an idea of how it would look

I'd rather go Matthews, Haha, Kelvim Benjamin, Purifoy top 3 rounds.

Well, instead of listing a few hundred picks, here's the Rams picks as we enter the 7th round (this is really crawling, lol):

1.2 Sammy Watkins, WR, Clemson
1.13 Ha'Sean Clinton-Dix, FS, Alabama
2.44 David Yankey, OT/OG, Stanford
3.75 Antonio Richardson, OT, Tennessee
4.110 Kelcy Quarles, DT, South Carolina
5.153 E.J. Gaines, CB, Missouri
6.188 David Fales, QB, San Jose State
6.214 Brock Vereen, SS, Minnesota
7.226 Marion Grice, RB, Arizona State
7.241 Aaron Lynch, DE, South Florida
7.249 Avery Williamson, ILB, Kentucky
7.250 Jordan Najvar, TE, Baylor

Edited to complete the Rams' picks. I was wavering between Najvar and Millard (FB), but figured Millard could go undrafted due to his knee injury. Lynch could be very strong value in the 7th round, since he was viewed as a potential early pick before he left Notre Dame; he has the physical talent, just needs to play harder.

Sadly enough, I'm also picking for the Jets, and I'm really liking who I drafted for them (possibly more?)

1.18 Jason Verrett, CB, TCU
2.49 Donte Moncrief, WR, Ole Miss
3.80 C.J. Fiedorowicz, TE, Iowa
4.104 Ka'Deem Carey, RB, Arizona
4.115 Billy Turner, OT, North Dakota State
4.137 Trevor Reilly, OLB, Utah
5.154 Anthony Steen, OG, Alabama
6.195 Lamin Barrow, ILB, LSU
6.209 Anthony Johnson, DT, LSU (was ignoring him as he had slipped too far, but finally gave in and took him, not sure why everyone was leaving him there?)
6.210 John Brown, WR, Pittsburgh State
6.213 Ross Cockrell, CB, Duke
7.233 Jordan Lynch, QB, Northern Illinois

To clean up the Jets' picks. Jets owner gets his Tebow-esque piece with a 7th rounder (but without the pressure), not a bad fit behind their other two mobile QBs, and has shown some flexibility to change positions if needed.
