Nation Wide Mock Draft

good thinking doing this but Free agency will alter peoples thoughts. I`d only do round 1 this time and do another after free agency. I went Barron as we need safety help as well and good corners can be had later in the draft. Nick Perry might be a Draft riser after the Combine so we might be clamoring for him.

so I went with Perry, who can be a poor man’s Demarcus Ware… meaning he’ll be like the 2nd or 3rd best player in the NFL.. that’s a joke but seriously with DeCastro & Kirkpatrick gone, time to look for great value at a high draft spot

Trade the Cowboys’ 1st and 4th for the Bengals’ 1st and 2nd.

14 + 113 = 21 + 53 (1,168 = 1,170)

At 21, select BPA of Peter Konz, Mark Barron, Janoris Jenkins or Stephon Gilmore.

This would not be what i would hope for….I hope a qb rises post combine to push another option to us at 14

We’d have to trade down under this scenario.

Jenkins/Konz/Perry/Still That’s tough, we need DB help badly, guess I’m taking Jenkins and hoping for the best. May be kicking myself later and wishing I’d taken Konz or Glenn, but #14 is just to early to take them.

I would hope we throw in a 4th to the Chiefs and select DeCastro though.

…I think Brockers and Still will both be drafted. In a mock like this, fans want fun, sexy picks, but in real life, those guys are going to go in the top ten. I am not sold on Brockers because of a lack of college production, but I think he goes in the top ten.

Wanted to get DeCastro, but I just can’t see how it could possibly fall this way. I wouldn’t be surprised if Jerry goes CB or S. There’s prob nothing wrong w/ picking Barron and I know we struck gold getting Lee in the 2nd b/c of his injury. If we got him wouldn’t he have to sit out of OTA’s, preseason and possibly 1st couple of wks until he was completely healed up. Maybe he’s worth the wait but I would like my draft pick to be able to come in w/ the opportunity to learn Rob’s defense quickly.

I picked Brockers b/c he can be moved all along d-line and I gotta feeling as much as everyone wants, that haus DT, that Jerry&Co. just won’t bite the bullet on this type of player in the 1st round. I just don’t see Coleman making the team this yr either. Brockers could inject some youth to this D-line. I really hope that J.Brent can really take a strong step forward into this space eating DT player that we all want/need.

Hightower
and get a extra 2nd or 3rd

you can move on to pick 15.

I voted Brockers but any of those guys would be fine by me.

…just seems like too big of a gamble to me. He scares the heck out of me. So much potential but so raw. He is the biggest boom/bust prospect in this whole draft. I hope he is gone before we pick, so we aren’t tempted to grab him. We can not miss in this draft especially at 14 overall. He just didn’t produce enough in college to be worth this gamble. Also, seeing how the recent LSU first round lineman have underwhelmed with Spears and Dorsey and Tyson Jackson. If you’re going to draft a lineman that high, he better at least produce in college like JJ Watt did.

Not what I have hopes for, while at the same time taking Kuechly would keep him from making Philly fans happy. This last part is always a consideration for me.
A trade down with only this list of players still on the board that got us an additional 2nd rd pk ould be even better though. I would expect, and hope, to still pu Jenkens at around 18-20 or so.
All mock drafts will make much more sence after we know what happens in free agency.

While Jenkins may be a Great Cover Corner, his HIeght AND the Charater concerns scare me away….

I have watched Several scouting videos on Kuchley and the similarity to Sean Lee is scary…

Drafting Kuchley fills a need as Dallas needs at least one more ILB, plus Kuchley gives Dallas insurance in case either Sean Lee gets hurt, or Bruce Carter doesn’t pan out. plus he is BPA with KIrkpatrick, DeCastro, and Couples gone….

I was listening to pat kirwan yesterday on the NFL network and he was NOT impressed with jenkins at all. He said only in the second round. If this scenario happens i hope dallas trades down and take barron/konz.

Infinite athleticism, 2 cent brain.

Secondary needs help. Barron looks like a legit safety although I would rather have Dre. As long as we address CB in FA then I’M ok with my pick. Secondary is the weakest link. Gotta fix that and then find the next weakest link and fix it and so on.

Sign Carr. He is legit and young. This eliminates urgency for CB in the draft. Try and draft DeCastro at 14. Let’s say he is gone. Trade down 4-6 spots pick up a 2nd or 3rd and draft Barron.
The only big problem left is SOLB. I’m comfortable taking my chances there. Draft and Guys already on the roster. SOLB isn’t going to lose a game for you with a few mistakes. Not having Secondary or OL will lose a game in a blink of an eye.

but I didn’t get here in time to vote, but apparently that didn’t matter because the majority want Jenkins. You know you could just wait till the second round to get Trumaine Johnson if you are desperate for a corner. The only reason he isn’t rated the best corner in the draft is because of the conference he plays in and the competition of said “big sky” conference. Other than that, according to NFL.com:

Despite playing in the Football Championship Subdivision, Johnson is an NFL-ready corner who is projected to be picked in the second round.

There will be a learning curve with him, however I think he is going to be the steal of this draft and could end up being probably one of the best defensive backs in this class. I say just be patient and wait and grab him in the second round and take Konz or Decastro or someone else in the first and pass on the other corners.

Johnson is fast, tall, has great ball skills and is a sound tackler on the edge. There really isn’t too much not to like about this guy on tape.
