Rams trade to number 1
-
Since I am now choosing for the Titans in the newly revised mock draft, I have been rethinking exactly why they are trading back when everyone thinks they need a LT like Tunsil. I have decided that they have chosen to stick with the development of Taylor Lewan as their LT and use the picks to improve in other areas.
Tour I saw you had a comment about Michigan State's Conklin maybe being not as good as rated. Could you elaborate on that for me please?
Edit: 3 of the four mock drafters @NFL.com choose Conklin for the Titans @ #15. http://www.nfl.com/draft/2016/mock-drafts

I used Browns draft history and my own brand of analytics to come up with my one and only 2016 NFL draft prediction.
It won't matter at what number we pick our guy. The formula says that the pick immediately before and after us will turn out to be successful players within 3 years. Our 1st rounder will be the usual bust. I hope it's wrong but as a long time fan, it's difficult for me to think otherwise.

Every FO was at some point unproven. Some/most get proven to be bad, some get proven to be good.

Here's my review...
Y. Jack Conklin (MSU) - 6'6 318 http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/dsprofile.php?pyid=106344&draftyear=2016&genpos=OT
ND's Stanley may have looked less athletic than my top two OTs, but Conklin was the first OT to prompt me to write "heavy-footed"... and he did so repeatedly. He also tends to play high.
Here we may have a legit inside candidate as he is very good with his upper body, playing strong with extended arms. But his drop in athleticism cannot be ignored.
MSU was so run oriented and successful doing it that the tape is not as determinative as it is for others OTs. So Conklin is another OT who needs a good Combine in my opinion. But where Stanley has a chance to flash some athleticism, I don't see Conklin as likely to do so.
Again... I see a Day 2 guy.
