Mock Drafts Thread

Then again.... maybe Smith is not so smart.
He posted a 7 round mock he did on Fanspeak Premium which allows trades and he... well... traded down to #26 to draft a questionable, 2nd-round, OT value...

I could live with the first 2 rounds. We need a LT and Thomas is easily the top LT. Becton is really promising but if Callahan doesnt like him then I think trading back for Jones or Cleveland and getting another high pick is the best option. We have alot of holes to fill on this defense and getting an extra 2and or 3rd would go a long way

Maybe he just thought that Cleveland was perfect for Cleveland
Beyond that, mocks that pull off hypothetical trades, to me, are fairly useless.

rumors are mostly true on Cleveland to Cleveland.seen many. Remember Berry was not in place till just after Senior bowl game was on 1-25-20.Berry was hired as GM on 1-27-20. While Berry was still at Philly, they interviewed Cleveland there..After Combine (which Cleveland did well in most explosion analynic numbers) Berry just got Cleveland again to a visit in Cleveland just before the NFL stopped all visits.. Ezra Cleveland & Austin Jackson both are certainly in the mix that fit the blocking scheme Stef wants to input..

How about trading up to the #1 pick? Trade our 10 and Baker for Bengals first round 2nd and 3rd.

If you made that call to Cinci... I hope you use a handset and not a speakerphone.
Why?
With a handset you'd only have tinnitus in one ear from how loud the laughter would be.

Yep-I'm not even sure they would take Baker and our first for Burrow alone at this point. They are about to get something very special for years to come IMO.

I know Burrow was the greatest thing since social distancing last season, but he is entering the NFL with less than 15 college starts, right?
I agree, I don't see the Bengals doing a #10 overall/Baker for #1 overall trade, but Burrow is not a guaranteed thing. The comps between him and Andrew Luck entering the NFL seem a bit silly IMO.

And did you know that Vonnegut actually did survive as a POW in a slaughterhouse in Dresden when it was fire-bombed? He took refuge very deep underground in a meat locker and then was put to work excavation bodies from the wreckage of the bombing.

"We'd like the night curtain now, please."
I freakin' loved that book (and Kurt)... and and the movie was decent as well.
Also loved Heller's Catch 22... a title that also applied to for the movie.
As in... if you read the book, then there is no way you could like the movie...
... while if you did not read the book, then there's no way you could have a clue what the movie was about and so you hated the movie.

I laughed so hard through reading Catch 22 my side started to hurt more and more every day. I could have used flies in my eyes for my own protection.?

LB-that's why I don't bother with that unrealistic one anymore. No way in hell anyone could trade down and get Thomas @17. Long gone by then for sure.

I just saw a few mock with him going 2 overall and honestly I wouldn't be suprised. LT always go higher than expected. I still think it will be Young but I think Thomas doesnt make it to 10. I'm not sure why all of the draft gurus are so low on him either.

Which one are using now then Ag ?
I've always used first-pick but happy to go elsewhere

So I did my "hold fast on picks, Andrew Thomas was available" draft.
Round 1 Pick 10 : Andrew Thomas, OT, Georgia
Round 2 Pick 9: Malik Harrison, ILB, Ohio St.
Round 3 Pick 10: Jeremy Chinn, SS, S.Illinois
Round 3 Pick 33 (COMP): Kevin Dotson, OG, Louisiana
Round 4 Pick 9: Alex Highsmith, Edge, Charlotte
Round 6 Pick 8: Bravvion Roy, DT, Baylor
Round 7 Pick 30: Dante Olson, OLB, Montana
Nothing really sexy, went heavy on the lines and in the trenches. The heart and soul the Browns have been missing.
- Stayed put and took my LT.
-Malik should develop into a consistent and reliable MLB.
-Chinn is going to be my big nickel safety. I said that as much in my "Who are you watching" thread and NFL.com seems to agree with that assessment as well..
" ball skills and athleticism are strengths that help define his value and teams will need to find ways to put him in position to utilize both without exposing his inconsistent field awareness. He might find a future role as a big nickel or a cover linebacker who can drag tight ends around the field in sub-packages" - .https://www.nfl.com/prospects/jeremy-chinn?id=32194348-4965-0621-179b-1e6fa9b75e74
We just don't have a reliable linebacker who I trust to cover TE's and the intermediate stuff at the moment. Chinn will get early minutes filling that role IMHO.
- Dotson is a massive guard who moves ok enough but you could some professional training to help with those hips and knees. But the kid is an absolute mauler who uses his hands so well that it helps to mitigate his feet not being the quickest at the moment. Room for improvement with sky high potential.
- Alex HighSmith is the only edge rusher I've seen with an actual functioning spin move. Kid is more compact and quick off the edge. A little on the light end, but this was a value take who, now that the Browns have Adrian as the base end, can take a shot at a kid who will specialize early on rushing the passer in limited snaps and can drop into coverage on occasion. He gives you scheme flexibility looks between your 4 man and 3 man down fronts. Gives him time to perfect his craft, fill out his frame and still contribute. But he's a very promising late(r) round target.
- Bravvion Roy. Honestly, could have gotten him late 6th maybe even the 7th. People just don't value big bodies who are cheap and stop the run. But we just signed a 25 year old in Billings who will be much needed, but much unheralded interior gap control to this defensive front. We have a couple gap shooters in Jobi and Sheldon... might as well pair them up with a couple old school hogs in Billings and Roy.
- Dante Olson. Honestly, haven't watched any film and had to read through some grades. His was the only one that spoke highly of his instincts, anticipation and "processing". Athletic traits are cool... but if you don't have those 3, you'll never make it in the NFL.
I'll follow up later with my Andrew Thomas was gone draft.

I don't have another. I just find that one an unrealistic waste of my time. I'd rather waste it on other things.?
