Forum Mock Draft

[PATSNUTme]

So it's Jones 4, Carradine 3, Woods 1.

Hankins would be a throw-away vote.

Story of my life.

 

[Blizzzard]

Woods.

But Carradine is very, very tempting

Hope this helps even out the "pie chart"....... Hat tip to dryheat

I think we're beyond all that. We have three players to vote on because these are the three players that were most voted on at pick 29.

 

[borisman]

Jones or Hankins will do so Jones, though Hankins may be a better fit.

 

[patsfaninpa]

Hankins is a fat toad. That's not a need. I voted for Carradine in the original poll. But, to avoid another tie. I'm voting for Datone Jones

 

[mgteich]

Hankins is disallowed, so Jones.

 

[borisman]

Why, because we already have a fat toad? Don't answer that! I'm not looking to derail this thread.

Don't you love the pass rush stunt when our dt's loop outside and the de's loop behind them? The qb sees our dt's coming towards him and casually keeps jogging right past them running for a 1st down or passing the ball. I'd like to see Datone Jones and Armstead doing the chasing on 3rd and long next year. Chandler Jones and John Abraham stunting inside.

Screw stunting on 3rd down. I want to see Datone Jones mashing his Guard right into the QBs face on 1st down.

Oh yeah, that too. I can see him playing LDE and bringing Abraham in when go to the 4-2-5. Slides inside to dt at that point. Maybe Armstead can give Vince a rest here and there. He played way too many snaps last year. Need to cut into that in order to extend his career.

Currently, there's a mock draft going on with some other NFL fans here down under. So far, I've managed to pick up the following players for the Patriots; Justin Hunter (29), Johnathon Jenkins (59) and Blidi Wreh-Wilson (91). Pick 91 was interesting. I was giving a lot of thought to Markus Wheaton and Leon McFadden.

Hunter is a binkie of mine and I was blinded by that. I gave serious consideration to Hankins here but thought the rest of the draft might be silly enough to let him slip to 59. He went at 58 and I picked up Jenkins to cover Vince. I know BWW is more suited to zone coverage opposed to man, but I'd hope the Patriots would find a way to utilize his talent.

It's interesting watching the mock draft unfold according to team needs as opposed to value. That said, I don't expect the actual NFL Draft to unfold anything like this mock.

Side note - I've also been doing the Philadelphia Eagles and have selected the following; Eric Fisher (4)(OL), Kawann Short (35)(DL), Eddie Lacy (67)(RB) and Brian Schwenke (101)(OL).

The more mocks you participate in the more apparent it becomes that value picks are tantamount to a successful drafting strategy.

Nice grab of Wheaton in the third. He's my binky. I can see him moving up into the mid 2nd by draft day unfortunately.

worst pick since laurence maroney

worst pick since laurence maroney

I tend to agree with you. I don't think very highly of Jones as a football player, nor do I think he fits this defense. I would have considered him in the third round.

 

[dryheat44]

Screw stunting on 3rd down. I want to see Datone Jones mashing his Guard right into the QBs face on 1st down.

I have seen absolutely zero evidence that suggests he's capable of such a thing.

 

[BadMoFo]

Boo hoo, you don't get your favorite player. This is actually a pick I can totally see us making.


With that, Falcons select Jonathan Jenkins, DT, Georgia.

The 49ers are on the clock.
