2018 Mock Drafts
-
Especially McGlinchey... still too high for him. And the fumble frequency info has put me off the Michel wagon. Agree on Ward... 5'11 may not measure up, but a 39" vert makes up for it.
Had the BUF trade-down scenario pop up in a sim this AM. It was far from my highest score, but overall it is my favorite draft..
Your score is: 21127 (GRADE: A-)
Round 1 Pick 1: Rosen, Josh, QB, UCLA (A)
Round 1 Pick 12 (BUF): James, Derwin, SS/FS, Florida State (A)
Round 1 Pick 22 (BUF): Vander Esch, Leighton, OLB/ILB, Boise State (A-)
Round 2 Pick 1: Chark, DJ, WR, LSU (B)
Round 2 Pick 3: Rankin, Martinas, OT, Mississippi State (B-)
Round 2 Pick 24 (BUF): Ragnow, Frank, C/OG, Arkansas (B+)
Round 2 Pick 32: Brown, Tony, CB, Alabama (A-)
Round 4 Pick 14: Lewis, Tyquan, DE, Ohio State (A+)
Round 5 Pick 22: Ford, Poona, DT, Texas (A)
Round 6 Pick 1: Jackson, Justin, RB, Northwestern (A+)
Round 7 Pick 1: Scott, JK, P, Alabama (A+)Not only the fumble rate with Michel, but his age too. He's over two years older than Guice and Jones.
Here's the carry to fumble ratio for some of the top RB's: https://www.footballcouchscout.com/copy-of-qb
Ronald Jones, EXCEPTIONAL ball security, 207:1 carry/fumble ratio.
Saquon Barkley, VERY GOOD ball security, 193:1 carry/fumble ratio.
Kerryon Johnson, VERY GOOD ball security, 191:1 carry/fumble ratio.
Josh Adams, VERY GOOD ball security, 174:1 carry/fumble ratio.
John Kelly, ABOVE AVERAGE ball security, 123:1 carry/fumble ratio.
Royce Freeman, ABOVE AVERAGE ball security, 114:1 carry/fumble ratio.
Rashaad Penny, ABOVE AVERAGE ball security, 106:1 carry/fumble ratio.
Darius Guice, AVERAGE ball security, 100:1 carry/fumble ratio.
Nick Chubb, BELOW AVERAGE ball security, 98:1 carry/fumble ratio.
Bo Scarbrough, BELOW AVERAGE ball security, 96:1 carry/fumble ratio.
Mark Walton, BELOW AVERAGE ball security, 90:1 carry/fumble ratio.
Nyheim Hines, BELOW AVERAGE ball security, 87:1 carry/fumble ratio.
Akrum Wadley, VERY POOR ball security, 67:1 carry/fumble ratio.
Kalen Ballage, VERY POOR ball security, 66:1 carry/fumble ratio.
Sony Michel, VERY BAD ball security, 54:1 carry/fumble ratio.Not only the fumble rate with Michael, but his age too. He's over two years older older than Guice and Jones.

Sony Michel, VERY BAD ball security, 54:1 carry/fumble ratio.I don't really know that Ronald Jones 207:1 ratio is that much more exceptional than Barkley's at 193:1...
They are both exceptional, I would add Johnson's number as well. There isn't that much separation between them.

I'd love this scenario. We basically trade Bradley Chubb for McGlinchey, Hurst and Hubbard, though not sure I'd go with those exact guys with some of the other names on the board.
Especially McGlinchey... still too high for him. And the fumble frequency info has put me off the Michel wagon. Agree on Ward... 5'11 may not measure up, but a 39" vert makes up for it.

Round 7 Pick 1: Scott, JK, P, Alabama (A+)good looking draft haul. Not familar with Ragnow at G nor C but we did just resign Reiter at C(spotrac).Tony Brown is a good value pick as a late 2nd rounder.TB looked great in combine drills.Draft Tracker compares him to Johnson Bademosi. not with them on that, but a 6 footer at 198 that runs a 4.35 40's..I'd say G.Williams has a nickel package for T. Brown

I could not resist Ragnow there... while thought of primarily as an inside guy, at 6'5 he actually can play OT as well. Plus I think he'd push Reiter very hard for the starting job. Pared with Rankin who can play OT or OG, the OL flexibility depth would be off the charts.
Both of the BAMA corners, Averett as well as Brown, get a lot less respect than they deserve, IMO. While not elite, both measured well at the Combine, can cover and, since they played for Saban, you know they can tackle.

If you can think of a medium phrase to put between "exceptional" and "very good", I'll edit the post.
Barkley just isn't on Jones' level.

Were the footballs fully inflated?

Vita Vea is better in every aspect of football than Danny Shelton, so I wouldn't be confused if they picked him.
Had a tough choice of Vita Vea or Derwin James at that pick, though.
Funny thing is I didn't even realize Denzel Ward was still available until pick #22. Must've been half asleep.

What are you guys using for your mock draft scenarios? website?
I wouldn't be overly concerned about the fumbling issue. Of all things a RB can solve, fumbling is one of them. I'm not saying to completely discredit it, but on the pecking order it is much lower than most things, IMOP
-
I have no idea what the statistics are but have the Browns ever picked their first round draft choice to the complete surprise of the consensus mock draft community? I mean what are the odds they do not take Sam darnold?

Same attitude was applied when drafting Corey Coleman. You see time and time again why that doesn't work out.

I don't understand this question. Most mock drafts are just pulled out of someone's arse.

I am sure they probably have. We have had some goofy effers making picks.

Love me a trade down with BUF, but not without the #22 as well as the #12. Plus I can't see them interested enough in Mayfield to move up. I mean they just ditched the similarly styled Tyrod.
As for the CBS draft for us: 1.01 Allen, 1.12 Vea, 1.30 Connor Williams, 2.01 Ronnie Harrison, 2.32 James Washington... my TV would not survive the first night and my PC would not survive Night 2...

While that would help, I think they'd still both be goners...
Besides there not being enough apparent value in the trade... Vea doesn't help our pass rush... Williams will be eclipsed by at least three OTs in next year's draft; trading up for him would be a panic move on par with Wheezy... Harrison is duplicitous... Washington? Simply not high on my list..
It's an unremarkable collection of prospects.
