Worst Mock of 2012?

Mike Lombardi

Quote:

1. IND - Andrew Luck QB
2. WAS - Robert Griffin QB
3. MIN - Matt Kalil OT
4. CLE - Justin Blackmon WR
5. TB - Dontari Poe DT
6. STL - Melvin Ingram DE
7. JAX - Riley Reiff OT
8. MIA - Ryan Tannehill QB
9. CAR - Morris Claiborne CB
10. BUF - Quinton Coples DE

The first 3 make total sense. Pick 4 is definitely a possibility.

5. I guess they are giving up on Brian Price (wasn't he like a top 3 pick in the second round?). That pick isn't only dumb because they are basically throwing away a high second rounder, but because they hired Claiborne's DB coach to coach him next year. They aren't passing on him.

6... Melvin Ingram to a team that has Chris Long and Robert Quinn. Did he bother looking at past drafts?

Riley Reiff isn't going top 10. His tape against good DEs makes him look really bad. He's not that good, nor would he be much of an improvement over Eugene Monroe or Eben Britton.

Tannehill in the top 10...

Carolina getting Claiborne would be insane.

Lombardi's a headcase. He's been losing credibility ever since he gave Unitas a 6 for the NFL's all-time top 100 list, and predicted Jermichael Finley would be the next player on.

I don't see anything wrong with it except for the Melvin Ingram pick.

I still think back and laugh at that comment.

Yeah the Rams pick is a head scratcher.

Bucs are switching to a 5-2 apparently.

I agree but Lombardi also predicted that Cleveland will end up with Tannehill after Washington acquires RG111.

Tannehill will probably be a top 10 pick when this is all said and done.

yeah this is terrible mock pick 5-8 don't make sense at all, i don't think tannehill is going in the top 10, Seattle at 12 is possible b/c they have jackson and he sit for a year but i don't think a gm would be stupid to take tannehill that high, but who thought ponder was 1st rounder

To me anything out of NFLN is junk. These guys have no credibilty at all after their hatchet jobs last year on Cam Newton and Jake Locker and their slobbering all over Blaine Gabbert.
