Your NFL Mock Draft

[Cincyfan78]

Yeah 40 times can be deceiving. I mean if a guy runs a 4.3, he's electric but I remember seeing guys running 4.5 or 4.6 and they look like they are 4.3-4.4 guys on the field.
Ex. - Derrick Henry ran a 4.54, Nick Chubb ran a 4.53. They look a hell of a lot faster

I think this may have to do with guys who have elite quickness, but maybe not quite what you would call elite straight-line speed. The ability to explode off the line, and in/out of cuts creates separation and the elusion of "speed", but when tasked with running just a straight line, they end up looking a bit slower. I've never been a fan of the 40 for that reason - game speed is cutting, moving in and out, and reacting to the play as it develops. It's rare that someone just runs a straight line down the field more than 2-3 times a game.

Just my thoughts on that.

Good job!

I don't think Tua has really earned that kind of status off some video he's released, there's going to be enough skeptical GMs that I don't expect a guy to trade up and squarely put his career in the hands of Tua.

IMO...LAC will stay in the 6th position and be content with the QB that MIA leaves on the table.

I do see a potential for MIA to pass on a QB at 5 with the idea of getting Love at 18....I don't see them risking waiting until 26.

I agree, when push comes to shove I think they stay at 6. Just hearing recent rumors I wanted to go a different way. I dont think Tua is a guy you want put your future on if you are Miami with his injury concerns even though I love his ceiling, if healthy

Ohh I agree completely, quickness and burst. A guy that is great at accelerating and hitting top end speed quicker

NFL Draft Rumors: Patriots ‘Love’ Oregon QB Justin Herbert, Says Rival GM

Hmm interesting. Would they trade up for him if he fell though...

 

[cdumler7]

I have some cautions with KJ Hill. He had an incredible Senior Bowl. His actual season in 2019 though wasn't anything to get all that excited by. If he is the Senior Bowl version of himself in the NFL then he is worth a 3rd round pick. If he is what he showed in the 2019 season I would say he is worth maybe a 5th round flyer tops.

 

[cdumler7]

I like the pick for the Broncos. Henry Ruggs is exactly what the offense needs in Denver. He is a great complimentary piece to Sutton and gives the Broncos an offense that could be absolutely explosive this year and make maybe the biggest leap from 2019 to 2020.

As a MIA GM I wouldn't take Tua 5...18 is where I would take him...or Love if he's gone.

If Tua had no injury history...I could see WAS pulling a AZ move...lol...

You never know with WAS but my best bet is still on Chase

 

[ATL96Steeler]

You never know with WAS but my best bet is still on Chase

No question now...but take the injury history away, new HC, young QB not established nor drafted by that regime...I could see it happening.

As it stands...the only team that can move WAS out of #2 is probably MIA and why would they?

 

[Shanemansj13]

Hearing rumors that the Browns love Ezra Cleveland so at this point anything could happen. They could pass on an OT

 

[Schmoopy1000]

It still might to be too early and I'm sure our opinions will change over these long 10 days but lets see your 1st round predictions.

I'm going off the limb on this one. I only included my trade prediction in the top 10 but I think there will be quite a few more in the 1st. I think the Broncos, 49ers and even Cowboys could all be in play to trade up.

1. Bengals - Joe Burrow
2. Redskins - Chase Young
3. Chargers - Tua Tagovailoa - Chargers trade up and put their future into Tua's hands.
4. Giants - Isaiah Simmons
5. Dolphins - Tristan Wirfs - the Dolphins stay put and pass on Herbert.
6. Lions - Jeffrey Okudah - the Lions pull off the trade and still get their guy.
7. Panthers - Derrick Brown
8. Cardinals - Mekhi Becton
9. Jaguars - Jerry Jeudy
10. Browns - Jedrick Wills
11. Jets - Andrew Thomas
12. Raiders - Justin Herbert - he falls to the Raiders and can sit behind Carr for a year or two, which is what he needs imo
13. 49ers - Ceedee Lamb
14. Bucs - Javon Kinlaw
15. Broncos - Henry Ruggs
16. Falcons - C.J. Henderson
17. Cowboys - K'Lavon Chaissson
18. Dolphins - Patrick Queen
19. Raiders - Kenneth Murray
20. Jags - Kristian Fulton
21. Eagles - Tee Higgins
22. Vikings - Trevon Diggs
23. Patriots - A.J. Epenesa
24. Saints - Jalen Reagor
25. Vikings - Denzel Mims
26. Dolphins - Jordan Love - project QB that can sit behind Fitzmagic for a year
27. Seahawks - Yetur Gross-Matos
28. Ravens - Xavier McKinney
29. Titans - Austin Jackson
30. Packers - Brandon Aiyuk
31. 49ers - A.J. Terrell
32 - Chiefs - Grant Delpit

I do not want to see the Giants getting Simmons.

 

[Shanemansj13]

I do not want to see the Giants getting Simmons.

Giants could very well pass on him for an OT. Gettleman got his QB last year, they need OL. Would not surprise me at all

28. Ravens - Carlos Ruiz
29. Titans - Kristian Fulton
30. Packers - Brandon Aiyuk
31. 49ers - Grant Delpit
32 - Chiefs - A.J. Terrell - not sure who they like more Terrell or Gladney

32 - Chiefs - A.J. Terrell - not sure who they like more Terrell or Gladney

I think Terrell probably fits the scheme better. Thats PFF's opinion, anyways. Gladney seems like a jack of all trades, though. I feel like any number of teams could pick him.

You still don't have Ezra Cleveland going in rd1.

I also think the eyeball test tells me that the Chargers are a better fit for Tua than Miami. If you have Tyrod Taylor as your QB then the transition to Tua should be fairly seamless.

I’m not convinced Cleveland is going Round 1 but I could see if going anywhere from 18 to in the 2nd round.

Tua and Herbert for MIA/LA is something I am going back and forth about. I’m hearing the Dolphins like Herbert more but their consesus pick seems to be Tua. Heard a rumor Chargers will not be trading up...so it’s safe to say they are taking leftovers? So no clue tbh. I could easily see those picks swapped though

 

[Shanemansj13]

Odds to draft Tua

1. Miami Dolphins +110
2. L.A. Chargers: +150
3. Las Vegas Raiders: +800
4. Jacksonville Jaguars: +1000
5. Detroit Lions: +1800
6. New England Patriots: +2000
7. Washington Redskins: +2000
(All other teams are +3300 or worse)

so close wouldnt be surprised with either tbh

 

[CrashDavisSports]

1. Bengals - Joe Burrow
2. Redskins - Chase Young
3. Lions - Jeffrey Okudah
4. Giants - Isaiah Simmons
5. Panthers - Tua Tagovailoa - Trade up with the Dolphins to get second best QB in the draft (swap 1sts, along with next years #1 pick and a 3rd rounder this year)
6. Chargers - Justin Herbert
7. Raiders - Jerry Jeudy - (Trade with Dolphins and swap 19 for 7, one of their 3 - 3rd round picks, and they also give up next years 1st, 2nd round pick.)
8 . Cardinals - Tristin Wirfs
9 . Jaguars - CeeDee Lamb
10. Browns - Andrew Thomas
11. Jets - Mekhi Becton
12. Raiders - Derrick Brown
13. 49ers - Henry Ruggs
14. Buccaneers - Javon Kinlaw
15. Broncos - Jedrick Wills
16. Falcons - CJ Henderson
17. Cowboys - K'Lavon Chaisson
18. Dolphins - Josh Jones
19. Dolphins - Justin Jefferson
20. Jaguars - Kristian Fulton
21. Eagles - Tee Higgins
22. Vikings - Trevon Diggs
23. Patriots - Jordan Love
24. Saints - Grant Delpit
25. Vikings - Denzel Mims
26. Dolphins - Kenneth Murray
27. Seahawks - A.J. Epenesa
28. Ravens - Yetur Gross-Matos
29. Titans - AJ Terrell
30. Packers - Jeff Gladney
31. 49ers - Cesar Ruiz
32. Chiefs - JK Dobbins

Dolphins load up on picks for next year so they can trade up and nab Trevor Lawrence, while beginning to build up an offense around him with offensive lineman and skill players this year.

I couldn't decide what anyone else would do trade wise, just that I could see the Dolphins attempting to trade down and collect draft stock for next year trying to grab Trevor Lawrence.

Not liking the 31st pick at all

Yeah the end of the 1st was tough for me especially those 49er and Chief picks..could see that going many different ways. I really like Delpit but his tackling is piss poor

Interesting the Panthers trade up...that would be unexpected but I love the idea of Miami loading up on more picks and waiting on TL
