Broth's Post Combine 2 round Mock w/trades

[Brothgar]

Here it is my two round mock draft. As always if you are able to convince me that my pick is wrong you get rep. Stupid arguments get a neg rep. Hate your team's pick? That kind of stuff happens on draft day. Not every fan is happy with how his team drafts suck it up nancy. There is a difference between a bad pick and one that doesn't make sense. Stick to complaining about the ones that don't make sense. More explainations will come tomorrow.

Round 1

Carolina (2-14) - Robert Quinn DE North Carolina - For some reason people have Quinn falling down draft boards but I can’t really see why. He had a decent combine and his tape is good yes I can see where missing football for a year could be a problem but in my opinion he is the best player of the power positions in this draft.

Denver (4-12) - Patrick Peterson CB LSU - Champ Bailey while he is back is not getting any younger and Cox was abused all season long. Peterson has the tools to be the best player in this draft and should be the pick here.

Buffalo (4-12) - Marcel Darrius DE/DT Alabama - The Bills head coach Chan Gailey has stated that they will be switching from a pure 3-4 to a 4-3/3-4 hybrid Buddy Nix has said repeatedly that they need a player that can play both schemes Nix is a guy who is known for wearing his draft strategy on his sleave Darrius can play all 3-4 positions and both 4-3 DT positions so it is an ideal pick for the Bills. But don’t be surprised if the Bills take JJ Watt at 3 if Darius is taken already.

Cincinnati (4-12) - Nick Fairley DT Auburn - Mike Brown the owner/GM of the Bengals likes to take players from high powered and high ranking football programs I don’t believe that Gruden is going to want Cam to be the QB so I think it comes down to Bowers or Fairley. I believe that the Bengals could use a little additional help in the middle Peko has done well but can easily be improved.

Arizona (5-11) - Von Miller OLB Texas A&M - Joey Porter is over the hill right now and the Cardinals seems like the perfect fit. Could be one of if not the best speed rushers in the draft.

Cleveland (5-11) - Dequan Bowers DE Clemson -

San Francisco (6-10) - Blaine Gabbert QB Mizzu -

Detroit from Tennessee (6-10) - Prince Amukamara CB Nebraska

St. Louis from Dallas (6-10) - AJ Green WR Georgia - A steep price of a 3rd round pick lets St. Louis take the best player in the draft Dallas doesn’t really find value in the CB position and unless it is Vince Wilfork a NT doesn’t go in the top 10 Jerry Jones does not take OL in the first round and hasn’t done so in his 22 year stint as Owner/GM

*cracks knuckles* I'll give this a shot for the Chiefs..

OT wasn't a need when we had premiere OTs on the board in Trent Williams and Russel Okung last year, so it's hard for me to believe we'd pull the trigger on someone like Tyron Smith this year.

One of the biggest needs on this team is NT and Phil Taylor is a rare specimen. He could turn our defense from solid/good to great. He's the clear cut best option for the Chiefs where they're picking. No other prospect comes close to fitting where we want to go.

While it is a good aregument as to why RT may not be a need for the chiefs I considered the fact that a player whome has been slotted as a top 10-15 pick fell to the mid 20s at a premium position.

[AkiliSmith]

Fairley is a great pick.

Bailey is a terrible pick. Doesn't fit a need or the scheme (I see him as a 3-4 end). Not to mention the Bengals already have two guys who are raw athletic marvels in Dunlap and Johnson. The Bengals only need a DE if it's an upgrade. I don't Bailey as an upgrade over Dunlap, Odom, Geathers, Johnson or even Frostee Rucker.

Go with Marcus Cannon in round 2. Their offensive line is garbage and he could play multiple positions.

[Nalej]

Pats

If this is how the first two rounds went... I guess I'd be pretty content.
I think both Hankerson and R.Moore are options at 33 as well.
Hankerson gives us a bigger type receiver and with all the Meriweather news, I could see the Pats going S early

listen to this man he speaks truth

[Hines]

Love the Steelers mock.

[Seasonticketholder]

I love the Mark Ingram pick since there's not a DE I would take over him on the board. The Nevis pick is okay. I guess he could provide a backup to Ellis though I think I would prefer Kenrick Ellis.

[Tom Servo]

Love Bowers to the Browns at 6

No way we take a TE in the 2nd tho. Watson had a helluva year and Evan Moore is a very good recieving option at the position. Gimme the best available WR, DT, or OL instead

[RJS113]

Great Bucs picks.

[wicket]

ingram is a terrible terrible saints pick, fills no need, is acceptable but not overwhelming value and a gutwrenching fit. I can live with Nevis in the second although Id prefer foster

[Sniper]

That is one faptacular Eagles draft.

[txparkes49x]

First round Amukamara or Gabbert, but the second round is great.

[monson]

If you are gonna put trades in you should have the Pats trade out of 33. I think they would go OL there if they stay.

[49erNation85]

yes amukur instead of gabbert!!But good second round.

[Matthew Jones]

Not entirely sure where Love's value is at right now, but the other Patriots picks are nice. I agree with monson that New England might trade out of #33 if they are able to address DE and OLB in the first round and if no one really stands out. Since the top OL are taken I'd look elsewhere.

[prock]

I dislike this Vikings mock. I don't like Austin in the second, and I don't like Newton for the Vikings.

[noondog]

Detroit Lions: Love the trade up to grab Prince, and the value of picks changing hands seems about right right.

As for the second round pick of Martez Wilson, I'm not sold on it. First off, the Lions already have a young stud ILB in DeAndre Levy who Schwartz seems to love at the spot. I don't see why the Lions would draft another ILB (HIGHLY doubt they have designs on moving Levy to the outside). As such, I think the pick will be OLB Mason Foster with an outside chance of it being OLB Bruce Carter. Foster would be a tackling machine and addresses a need for the Lions at OLB.

Granted I just have a mancrush on Martez Wilson.

Austin would be an idea replacement for fat pat williams IMO. Newton fits the mold of what Vikings QBs have been for a while. So although you don't like the picks they are highly possible if not likely.

[FordFairlane]

If the first two rounds went Pouncey and Brown for the Steelers I'd be happy.

I don't think Austin has that high of value. And I don't think we would go for Newton, we already have an athletic freak at QB.

[thebow305]

Locker is fine with me.
