NFL - Discussion Thread

You guys are too good at this, I find it hard trying to keep up with what all the teams are doing. I tend to just concentrate on Washington. Every year without fail I list a player twice and don't notice. I will take your comments on board and modify my mock accordingly. Thank you.

Here's the latest update to my Final mock Draft. Again, I now have the Vikings trading up with the Cardinals instead of the Chargers. I read a report that most team sources believe a deal is already in place between Arizona and Minnesota.

2. Commanders - QB Jaylen Daniels
3. Patriots - QB Drake Maye
4. Vikings - QB JJ McCarthy
5. Chargers - WR Marvin Harrison Jr.
6. Giants - WR Malik Nabers
7. Titans - OL Joe Alt
8. Falcons - DE Dallas Turner
9. Bears - DE Laiatu Latu
10. Jets - TE Brock Bowers
11. Cardinals - WR Rome Odunze
12. Broncos - QB Bo Nix
13. Raiders - QB Michael Penix
14. Saints - OL Olumuyiwa Fashanu
15. Colts - CB Terrion Arnold
16. Seahawks - OL Taliese Fuaga
17. Jaguars - CB Kool-Aid McKinstry

That's superb Warrior13, Mel Kiper needs to retire and you to replace him. I'd bet the farm you would do a better job than him. I really can't do any better than either you or steelers01 mocks. I just don't know enough about the guys that are likely to be drafted from 25 onwards. To me they are just names. All the players I do recognize I can't argue with any of your choices.

We all know though that there will be a couple of surprises in the first round which come out of nowhere, I just can't see anything strange happening with the twenty odd picks unless a bottom team decides to trade up forcing teams to take their second choices because their ideal player is off the board. The fly in the ointment may be Brandon Aiyuk if he is traded by the 49rs before the draft. Another that may rock the draft is Patrick Surtain II if the Broncos want to trade up with the Cardinals who need help in the secondary desperatly.

There are rumors flying around that Minnesota may trade their two first round picks, and Justin Jefferson to get the Patriots pick at number three. It's the only way they can guarantee getting either Daniels or Maye. You have the Raiders sniffing about so the Cardinals pick number four can get trumped.

I'm actually looking forward to this draft, plenty of people are saying that Washington are a quarterback away from reaching the playoffs.

Something crazy will definitely happens, there's always at least a couple teams that draft guys we never even think about mocking in the first.

JJ and 2 firsts is a lot to move up for the Vikings, and doesn't make a ton of sense because if you have a rookie QB you're going to want a guy like JJ for him to throw to. Kinda setting him up for failure (which is common, so honestly I can see it).

I heard a rumor that Xavier Worthy might go to the Dolphins at #21. Never would expect a WR to Miami that early, but I would not complain about adding another track star. lol

I also read something about a Washington OT not named Troy Fautanu sneaking into the 1st when most have him graded as a Late 2nd. As Mike said, some team will probably do a crazy overreach.

I will post my Final Final Mock on the day of the draft. I will try to post it early enough so the two of you can see and comment. However, unless something big breaks, I really like where my current update is. Steelers continue to be a thorn in my side, but I like Mims more than Barton and the Steelers have hit on many Georgia players in recent memory.

Just let me know when you guys wanna lock yours in and I will set it aside. ;)

Made more updates to my mock, but I am not going to post until tomorrow just in case I touch it up one more time.
