I think this is the most difficult draft ever to figure out what BB is going to do. No specific pure need just screams for attention and so player athletes have similar grades after the first 10-12 picks.
And while I am tempted to put down players that I would love to see the Pats select, the true goal of the mock is to try and look at this draft as BB would.
Last year my mock hinged on Cleveland, if they passed on Wimberly I thought BB would make a bold move. Well Cleveland didn't and BB passed on Lawson in favor of Maroney.
This year my mock draft hinges on Pittsburgh. If they pass on Revis, I would expect BB to move up to #16 and take Revis. (#24 and #28 for #16 and #47)
Which would look like this:
- CB Revis (Pitt)
- RB Leonard (Rut)
- FS Gattis (WF)
- LB DeOssie (Brown)
- OT Otto (Purdue)
- QB Leak (Gators)
- OG Spethenson (Rut)
- TE Boss (West Or)
- NT Toneiana
- SS Dahl (SDS)
However if Pittsburgh or someone sooner jumps on Revis, then I expect BB to wait for the draft to fall to him and move down whenever prudent.
Which would leave us like this.
- LB Harris (Mich)
- FS Merriweather (the U)
- RB Booker (FSU)
- CB R Smith (Gators)
- OT Otto (Purdue)
- QB Leak (Gators)
- OG Stephenson (Rut)
- TE Boss (West OR)
- NT Toeania
- SS Dahl (SDS)
