Mock Draft Central... The Pro's

In a related note.. Kiper raised our 2016 draft grade. All the way from "C" to "C+"...
... so we've got that going for us.
Browns draft class gets boost in Mel Kiper Jr. re-grade
http://cle.247sports.com/Bolt/Browns-draft-class-gets-boost-in-Mel-Kiper-Jr-re-grade-52169421
I read that headline and didn't even click on the link. I thought to myself, "How in the world would it get a better grade unless our original grade was awful to begin with, and it was raised only slightly?" Yep, I was dead on. Coleman has MUCH to prove (although far from bust status at THIS point), the other three WR's showed virtually NOTHING, and I struggle to think of anyone other than Ogbah that even made a real impact. It takes a couple of years to accurately grade a draft, but I have to say...right now it doesn't look good. Like...at all.

Dane Brugler most recent mock has all 3 QBs going in Top 10:
MT to 49ers with #2
Kizer to Bears with #3
Watson to Bills at 10

I hope so, that will push a lot of defensive talent down to 12. It would be great if there were 2 RBs taken as well.

The closer it gets the clearer it seems the teams like this QB class a lot more than fans and "draft scouts"

Teams know the importance of the position and obviously put a premium on it.
As I said before "draft scouts" make mock drafts based on their own personal opinions...not on how they think each team will act. "X player in my opinion should only be a second round pick" so in their mock they make him a 2d round pick....notwithstanding the fact that certain teams desperately need that kind of player and are likely to take them in the much earlier portion of the process.
Last year, many "draft scouts" had both Wentz and Goff as second round talents. Now refresh my memory...where did those two players get drafted?

.. or QBs are just the best material with which to troll for tradedowns.
Both McShay and Mark Dominik were on NFL Insiders agreeing on how teams with the greatest number of needs, like SF, should be eager to trade into the depth that will be there in rounds two and three... accumulating picks along the way.
Both also agree that the top half of the 1st round is too high for any QB in this draft, but neither would be surprised if a team takes one that high... and moves up to do it.
And one last agreement... Dominik remarked that this draft had more franchise changing potential than any in recent years... and that is due to its depth. McShay agreed.
OK... one more... both agreed we have to take MG at #1...

Cleveland.com has a summary article on the week's major mocks...
http://www.cleveland.com/browns/index.ssf/2017/04/nfl_mock_draft_2017_roundup_br_2.html
All have MG at # 1...
- DJ has WR Corey Davis at 12.
- SI's Burke, who still has Trubs at 12, is now hedging with an unnamed CB as a "Plan B" at 12.
- Kiper has switched from Trubs to Watson.
- McShay has switched from Watson to OJH with Kizer at 33.
- CBS' Brugler has OJH at 12.
- Three other CBS'ers have Trubs at 12.
-
To be honest, all these mock drafts are as useless as tits on a boar hog. And they are becoming as interesting as watching paint dry.
The draft is held at least a month too late imo.

They'll need to move up then as he'll be gone by the time they're picking...potential trade down from 12?
What extra picks would that get us ?

I'm taking the call regardless, out of courtesy, but as long as one of my "impact guys" is there, then the person on the other end of the line will hear, "No thank you, we have a player we like here."

PFF is (was) doing a live mock today on twitter (so D-bone couldn't see it...):
1.01 MG
1.12 Mahomes
2.01 Sidney Jones
2.20 Marcus Williams.

Not sure I like the Mahomes pick (If he goes at 12...it means that 3 other QBs I think have gone off the board in front of him)
nor the Jones pick. Too great of injury concerns.
