Draft scenario..

Just killing time here guys before the draft Thursday.  Lets say this is the scenario..

Who is everyone's choice here?  This one is tough for me because I would love an OLB (Arden Key) to almost solidify this defense and really take them to the next level.  Of course that will all rely on if Key plays like he can on a consistent basis.  The kid could be a force.  

There are some solid OT's there still to be had too.  Not for nothing but I've done a ton of these mock drafts and there are always still tons of talent left to choose from in the 3rd.  Maybe not quite like this but there are typically a few guys who slip to the 3rd.  Orlando Brown is also available he's not shown in this shot.  OT wouldn't be a bad play here in the case where Beachum goes down or Shell doesn't progress.

TE is also a need still especially with Gesicki still there.  Again although unlikely with him, who knows, maybe a solid TE might slip into the 3rd round and give our rookie QB another weapon.

I would pray that a Center fall to us in the 3rd because that'll be my pick without even thinking about it.  In this scenario I go with Jones though.

Restart. Your big board is stupid. 

(There’s no way DJ Moore is there in the 3rd) 

I wouldn't say there's no way.  Especially in a draft where anything can happen.  There were speculations that only 1 WR may go in the 1st round so I don't think it's impossible that Moore is there at the top of the 3rd.

I'm big on Gesicki, or DJ Moore (even though we have a ton of wideouts)

I wouldn't go WR because we have so many.  I think a WR unit of Anderson, Enunwa, Kearse, Pryor, Hansen, Stewart is more than good enough for a rookie QB to come in and be successful.  The talent is there.  Add in Leggett who I think will be a solid contributor and will become a safety net for our young QB.  

Passing Gesicki would be extremely tough though.  I'm just big on getting the Oline to be the strongest unit on our team I think it's that important.

Have to take Key there

That Fanspeak thing is addicting isn't it?

It's too addicting lol.  And I find myself doing more as the draft gets closer.  What I'm noticing though is that in the 3rd round the pool of talent is still there.  There are still plenty of guys to draft that can come in and have an immediate impact.  There are always solid OT's and OLB's there which I'm excited about.

Try First-pick.com it's another mock draft site that's pretty cool.  It allows trades and stuff.

It was when I first started doing it a few years back...fast forward to this year in particular and it’s kind of annoying because the big board is always so unrealistic.

I use Mike Miller's draft board and it's not awful.  Yeah if you look at the talent pool as far as who is available still in the 3rd round it may seem unrealistic but if you look at the players picked prior then it's not that bad.  There's a lot of talented players in this draft class.

Moore or Key easy choice

I'm surprised more people aren't wanting a Center picked with our 3rd rounder.  I'm not convinced that Long is going to stay healthy at all.  It seems like he's injury prone.  If he goes down then Swanson is our starting Center.  That's a problem.  I'm praying that one of Ragnow, Price or Daniels is there in the 3rd.  Highly highly unlikely that Price is there even with his injury.  Daniels will probably be a first rounder.  Ragnow could go in the 1st or 2nd round but I wouldn't be shocked if he's there in the 3rd.  I'd even settle for Mason Cole.  We just need a starter type backup Center.

I'm all about Arden Key though.  It would be a difficult choice for me in which I wouldn't be mad if Key were the pick.  He could solidify our defense and make us really really scary.
