Mock Draft 1.4

Here's a draft that would be TERRIBLE for the Ravens (I copied and pasted this from a website):

1. Browns: Myles Garrett DE
2. 49ers: Jonathan Allen DT
3. Bears: Solomon Thomas DE
4. Jaguars: Dalvin Cook RB
5. Titans (Trade): Malik Hooker S
6. Jets: Marshon Lattimore CB
7. Chargers: Jamal Adams S
8. Panthers: Leonard Fournette RB
9. Bengals: Derek Barnett DE
10. Bills: Marlon Humphrey CB
11. Saints: Quincy Wilson CB
12. Patriots (Trade from Browns) Mike Williams WR
13. Cardinals: Sidney Jones CB
14. Eagles: Corey Davis WR
15. Colts: Jalen Tabor CB

There's no need for the rest, since the Ravens have the 16th pick.


Patriots drafting a WR in the first round? Whose mock draft is this? Harambe's?

Quite a slip for O.J., innit?


Yeah, I've looked at team needs and teams that actually need a tight end are the late teams in the draft.

That's just what the website said, calm down.

It would be fair and honestly also right if you post a list created by someone else, that you also post the author of the list or the webpage it came from.
That's my opinion.
Might be that Peter has a different opinion here.

Hm...Draft....I have no idea how it could be important to make guesses which team draft which player. However, it seems people have fun in doing so. It is OK.

From a law point of view: a list of names is no art or any copyrighted material, so there is no need to point out the source.

From a personal point of view: of course it would be better to name the source instead of just copying it. Sometimes the source gives or removes weight from such assumptions. I mean, if this was the list posted by an official, it would be interesting to know. If Lisa Miller from Ghosttown, Wisconsin was collecting the list, I couldn't care less...

now go on with

Then when the real draft happens, you can see if you were accurate or way off. It's supposed to be fun. That's the purpose of the mock drafts.

Well, I read some interesting news about the draft at NFL.com. Turns out the Eagles and the Colts flipped a coin for which pick they would get and the Eagles now have the 14th pick instead of the 15th pick and vise versa for the Colts. Now my mocks are all wrong. This is what I get for using

Had a look at this piece: http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000714737/article/2017-nfl-draft-order-and-needs-for-every-team

When looking at the top 10, only the Chargers are marked down as needing a DE. While a transcendent talent, that Myles Garrett seems to be, is useful for any team - what's the chances of the Browns trading down, theoretically handing him over to another team for yet another load of picks?

My biggest issue with trading down for them; There's no other team in top 7 that REALLY have a need, so they probably wouldn't set the world in motion with said trade down.

Also, I haven't heard/don't remember if he's exclusively a D-line man, or if he's a hybrid DE/OLB depending on system.

Last, I'm almost hoping Ravens go against conventional wisdom and take a WR in the one of the two first rounds - if he's among the BPA. CB first doesn't sound terrible, neither does a safety if there is one that's good enough.

Every mock draft before FA starts is just fan boy wishes.
The teams will do what they can and effort to fill the gaps they have prior the draft and will then look for the missing pieces in the draft.

Why is it that every team assumes Falcons are looking for a new CB were more likely to look FS before thinking about CB
