We might as well get one of these threads going also. There will be a gadzillion mocks from now until the draft.... It can be chaotic to keep track of them all... So let us come together and try to talk about them here. As they occur they can get posted here and talked about. It should be a lot of fun to look over say a 4-5 month period how things change... Rankings and our views on the prospects. I will go ahead after this and find a mock to post so we can get the ball rolling. Cheers.
Here is a mock from 4 days ago. https://www.tankathon.com/nfl/mock_draft This mock has us at #8 taking a Tackle from Texas... Kelvin Banks... I will provide a scouting report on him. https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/Player/Kelvin-BanksJr-OL-Texas From the scouting report: Scouting Report: Strengths Exceptional length and mass for the position, with a squatty build that provides natural leverage advantages against edge rushers Displays impressive initial quickness out of his stance, allowing him to gain depth quickly in pass protection Possesses elite explosive power, evident in his ability to drive defenders off the line of scrimmage in the run game Demonstrates outstanding lateral agility for his size, enabling quick recovery against counter moves Anchors extremely well against power rushes, using his strong lower body to absorb and redirect force Shows the ability to play with proper knee bend and maintain leverage, particularly in run-blocking situations Exhibits good hand usage in pass protection, capable of shocking rushers with initial punch and maintaining control Displays above-average awareness in picking up stunts and blitzes, rarely caught off guard by defensive schemes Armstead is old, and fraglie... He is not a long term solution to anything. I am not saying this would be my pick... I can see why it would need to be made.
Yeah this thread should get heavy real fast. We’ll have to see about the qbs coming out. Perhaps we’ll get a shot at Abdul Carter
I am eager for the next round of mocks... I am eager to watch a lot more college football as their crunch time approaches
