The 2021 Click-bait, Mock Draft Collection Thread
-
Looks like a plethora of LBs for sure plus one DB.
It's a LB rich class and almost as if our FO looked ahead in 2019...
DBs? There is quality at the top to be sure, but in the sims they go early and than you won't see one in the ranking for most of rounds 2 thru 4... It's really weird.
Safeties trend opposite... only a couple early, but then a steady flow in rounds 2 thru 5.

Seems like a honest Roster digest... https://www.wkyc.com/article/sports/nfl/browns/browns-2021-offseason-roster-review/95-7d3b2574-ff65-4c7d-b1ba-fed88adea5e5
Should be a deep evaluation board of LB'ers vs. Corner's vs. DT's vs. DE's... Get to work AB ! ? (replacing Vernon's side, is the fence am sitting on for now)

Here's a 3 round Mock that I could see happening.. Includes unnamed teams that may trade up for QB's...
https://thedraftnetwork.com/articles/2021-nfl-mock-draft-weissman-4.0
In the 2nd, I'd only change one thing,.By taking Pitt's DE Jones ll instead of Roche..
His 2nd round, looks somewhat underwhelming and includes Olave who went back to school.. but our 4 pick outcome would look great ?

Nixon, huh? Interesting.
I guess my draft and roster philosophy started with watching the Gmen from the early to late 2000's. With the de-emphasis on the running game as priority #1, the need for IDL also drops commensurately. Much like how the RB position is now valued, with fewer and fewer picks in the top 50 because such great production can be found that doesn't include a high price tag for a position with the shortest life-span in the NFL. While it's more of a guideline than a rule (A little Ghostbusters reference there, kids) there are exceptions to that. If I find a transcendent IDL talent, obviously I'm going to pull that trigger. So who would be on that short list lately... Donald. Fletcher Cox? Kenny Clark? Buckner? Heyward? Re: Donald, are any of those names talents you would consider his equal? I don't think so but Cox is about the only one that is really close.
Next tier being Chris Jones (3rd round pick) Grady Jarrett (5th round pick) Akiem Hicks (3rd round) Mo Hurst (5th round) ( @mld-woody I told you he'd be good) Linval Joseph (2nd round)
My point being, the Gmen won 2 Superbowl's in that stretch not investing a single 1st round pick on IDL. Actually their highest pick was Linval Joseph in the 2nd. But beyond that? Nothing from 2001 until I believe Dexter Lawrence? They drafted edge rushers and found effective talent in the mid to later rounds to supplement the outside production because an Aaron Donald simply wasn't available. I guess, in a way, I also view the QB position the same. If I'm not 100% convinced that I've found THE guy, then I'm not going to address the position unless BPA severely dictates it or I can leverage my draft board to achieve similar production at a better value for the position. I'm just a believer that those assets can be invested elsewhere while finding talent for IDL later. Unless of course Nixon looks like the next Aaron Donald.

As for the mock position layout.. We'd be scrambling to replace LB Mack Wilson again going into the 5th.Mack was taken #155 in 5th/ while we own #169 this draft.
We could certainly take LB over DT in the 1st...much prefer if the value sits there..
Nixon is no Donald...but if we get a Johnathan Allen type DT from it? I'm OK with a 17th overall pick DT value, picking 26th

@tiamat63 if you told me I'm sure I agreed. Mo was a rare IDL that could get pressure up on the QB. Michigan has been struggling to replace that for years.
Also, the only reason Mo went that late I'd because they found some heart condition / irregularity during his medical at the combine. Teams get nervous and he dropped.

Re: The bolded - yeah, I'm good with that. Mack is the worst LB on this team and it isn't close right now.
With Billings, Elliot and possibly Jobi in the fold, I need a DI that gives me the pass rush push long term. That 3-tech to replace Sheldon in time. If you can't find it, then don't try to draft it high.

Yes, well aware of that. I believe we even spoke about it. His size at the time (270ish) was also a concern.
Gary is a solid player, but Mo and Bush were the heart and soul of that defense for a couple years.

Bush kinda came out of nowhere, but yeah, he was a huge part of the D. Bush and Mo only overlapped one season though.
Honestly the whole DL was stacked if you start going through the names. Hoke and Mattison could recruit DL.
CBs were good too.
I believe Gary is starting to be pretty solid for the Packers

Parris Campbell, KJ, Mclaurin & Olave might disagree about that.
Yes, Gary is starting to produce on a more limited snap count. Then again, I'm not a huge fan of Pettine's defensive philosophy's so who knows what his ceiling might be.

Well he was drafted to play a different position than what he played in college, so it wasn't going to be an immediate impact.
I think you're blurong together a handful of years here, but the crossing route rest that killed us came through exploiting our third CB and our main pass rushers hurt. But yes, when OSU went three deep with WRs that run 4.3s that's hard to stop. Especially with some injuries. Especially with a DC that refuses to adapt from his man coverage philosophy. And now that DC is gone, even though he succeeded against everyone else. Arizona is going to have a very good D soon

FIFY now that Sumlin is gone. JFF was the only reason he got to stay at A&M as long as he did. At Arizona he was a disaster (9-20 in 3 seasons). He got fired after going 0-5 in 2020.

Nixon has to be a fast riser to be sure if he's now in consideration for being the first IDL off the board.

Round up of 1st round prognostications by Gibble...
A lot of different names with one repeated 3 times... Zaven Collins.
Mock Draft Roundup: Early predictions for who Browns will take with 26th pick
The 2021 NFL Draft is just 2 short months away
Feb 10, 2021 at 09:42 AMOf Note: Robinson began his career at Alabama before making the move to Orlando. Kiper likes the kind of versatility Robinson could bring to a Browns secondary that was hampered by significant injuries throughout 2020.
Of Note: Collins won the Nagurski Award, given to college football's top defensive player, after racking up 11.5 tackles for loss and four interceptions.
Of Note: Jeremiah compares Collins to Leighton Vander Esch, who starred at Boise State before landing with the Cowboys in the first round.
Of Note: Barmore was named the Defensive MVP of the 2021 national championship after racking up five tackles, two tackles for loss and a sack against Ohio State.
Of Note: Reuter projects the Browns to trade up to No. 21 to snag Bolton, whom Reuter compares to Steelers LB Devin Bush.
Of Note: Iyer says Collins "explodes as an athlete" and would be a nice complement to Garrett on the D-line and Denzel Ward in the secondary.
Of Note: Phillips, a transfer from UCLA, led the Hurricanes with eight sacks in 2020.
Of Note: Nixon was the Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year and was the only player in college football to be a finalist for the Outland Trophy (best lineman) and Nagurski Trophy (best defensive player).

My goofy opinion - I don't see trading up for Bolton. I don't get him going in the first round.
Collins may not even be there at the 21st pick. But if he's there, I think he's the Browns' first pick.

I don't see us trading up period, but if someone we expected to go very early falls... well... let's just say never say never.
The thing about Bolton is he is a prototypical Mike... a position we badly need... but there are decent options later.
Collins? Really warming to his versatility as a SAM standing up on early downs and then in a 3-point opposite MG in 3d and long... or 2nd or 1st and long.

One thing I always say about mocks is that they are hard to judge without knowing who else was available at a given pick. So with that in mind I used the links in the Gribble article to see who of potential interest to us went in picks 20-32.
Also interesting to note patterns in the top 20. Not surprisingly four QBs were the norm along with at least two CBs and two WRs. All had Parsons repping the LB class in the top 10. Somewhat surprising to me were the number of OTs taken. Many of the mocks had up to 6 going in the 1st round with most of those in the top 20. Add all this early consensus together and you see how some really good defensive talent is squeezed down the board to us.
I started a spreadsheet tallying mocks' Top 20s by position... may get around to finishing it later.

Add all this early consensus together and you see how some really good defensive talent is squeezed down the board to us.
Yep, looks like we really do not have to do any trade up to have very good choices available at BPA in our own spot.
I'm betting it is 95 % sure we go defense unless FA nails it all down.

Seems Carlos Basham has overtaken Pattie Jones ll... ? I've watched these two hammers so long a can't pick one over the other.. and won't
I see a Top 3, in a deep WR class.. Might see some reaches that vary per Mocks above
Top CB class seems weak.. reaches there have not settled either.. (ya may want to get Money Mitch inked)
Top LB & DE, deep classes names have not changed.. stay tuned
Some bad NFL OL's may take a reach in round 1 too..
