Quincyyyyy's highly anticipated 7 round mock draft

By popular request OT will get first nod and DL will get the next.
1. OL Ciron Black Tiger
He can compete with Brewster and Free to be the heir apparent to either tackle spot, and has ideal size to be a very good guard. He sort of reminds me of a shorter version of Flo sans the penalties. If Anthony Davis comes out then he may be an option here.
2. DE Jared Odrick Nittany Lion
Great motor and plays the run very well. I also think he is a better pass rusher than he gets credit for. Duke's Vince Oghobaase is also supposed to be a very talented D-lineman, so he might get consideration here as well. However, Vince has had an injury plague season, so I'm not sure how that is going to affect his draft status.
3. NT Dan Williams Volunteer
Fills up space and has a high motor. May be a little underrated.
4. CB/Returner Walter Thurmond III Duck
Will provide depth in the secondary and can contribute as a return man.
5. C/G Reggie Stephens Cyclone
One of the biggest centers in the country at 330 lbs.
6. OT Jared Veldheer Charger
Extremely athletic and physically imposing small school prospect at 6'8 320. He supposedly runs the 40 in 4.8. He is this year's Joel Bell, although Joel Bell didn't end up getting drafted...
7. FS/SS Jordan Lake Bear
Not very athletic but he is well built and a good tackler. He would be at the very least be a good special teams player.
Couple of Notes:
Check out Draft Tek's draft simulator. It's a lot of fun (if you are in to that sort of thing).
A small school NT weighing 355 lbs at 6'1. I also noticed he has two sacks this season for a 6 and 7 yard loss and a couple of pass deflections. Depending how he looks at his pro day he may be worth a late round pick.

That’ be insane to take that many lineman, but I wouldn’t mind.
Are Miles Austin and Kevin O. enough for us not to draft a WR at some point? I say no.

I would say yes
Miles Austin is better than every draftable receiver, not named dez bryant, and Austin is more of a known quantity than he is.

RW, Miles, Crayton, Ogletree.
I think its likely we lose hurd in the offseason, so we have room for 1.
But taking a wr early seems like a bad idea. We have plenty of talent there i think.

Safety in the 7th? No speed receiver?
Dallas is 6-2 and unless they collapse in the second half or Black has an injury that drops him on a ton of draft boards, he won’t be there in the 20’s. Remember, the last few years have seen as many as 8 OT’s go in round 1.
Any tackle we get will likely be 5th, 6th or 7th in the draft rankings.
Dallas will need to figure out the DE spot too. Spears is gone. What’s the plan with Hatcher and Bowen?

I suspect some underclassmen will push him into our range
furthermore most draft rankings on the internet have him in the early second late first.

You sure Spears is gone?
I guess its likely that someone will overpay for him, but hes been a solid player for us and if possible I think we’d want to keep him around.

Spears or Bowen is gone IMO
It would nice to keep both.
How bout dem Frogs!!!!

as someone mentioned before Hatcher and Spears will be restricted FA in an uncapped year
so we can put a first round tenders if necessary
by quincyyyyy on Nov 15, 2009 2:17 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
So Bowen is gone most likely?
Or does Dallas pay him like a starter?
How bout dem Frogs!!!!
by DIRE WOLF on Nov 15, 2009 2:33 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
depends on how much we can resign him for
by quincyyyyy on Nov 15, 2009 2:41 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
Like Canty someone will fall in love with him
and pay big bucks. He’s a very good pass rusher.
How bout dem Frogs!!!!

Beef up the lines.
Works for me. Obviously, the Cowboys like to develop their own WRs. Who knows if one of the PS guys develops into someone that can provide depth.
And of all drafts, this looks to be one to go heavy with the heavy guys. Go with what the draft offers.
Cool stuff, Q!
I can see for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles...

Thanks!
yeah our top 4 WR spots are set with KO, MA, RW, and PC. Hurd can compete with manny Johnson and the 4th and long dude for the 5th spot.

MAybe Dallas will start looking out west a little more.

Will Lake last till the 7th?
I don’t think so. That would be a steal.
How bout dem Frogs!!!!
by DIRE WOLF on Nov 15, 2009 12:37 PM CST reply actions 0 recs
That is where most rankings have him.
but yes I do think he is underrated as well. His athleticism is questioned so his pro day is going to be big for him.
by quincyyyyy on Nov 15, 2009 12:45 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
He's one of those guys that can just play football.
How bout dem Frogs!!!!

Dan Williams = 2 Thumbs up
Great pick… and I take your word for the other ones, I would like to see a receiver in there but y not just pick up another undrafted one ;)

hehe exactly
plus I see our top 3 WR spots set for years: MA, RW, and KO. Of course if a good one drops to us then why not take one.
by quincyyyyy on Nov 15, 2009 1:32 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
That Odrick guy would be a nice pick.
Another high motor guy on the DL would give offenses fits.
I can see for miles and miles and miles and miles and miles...

He is a machine.
I would be very excited to see him with a star on his helmet.

I like the Odrick and Black picks
since I put them in our first 3 rounds in your last post hahaha….

Like the sleeper OT Jared Veldheer, nice
If Vollmer can become a stud, why not this guy.
Anthony Davis, I would friggin love that guy in the 1st, I bet he goes early in the round though.
You can't stop Patrick Crayton, you can only hope to contain him.
