Mock Draft 2017!
| Order | Team | Player | Analysis |
|
1 |
Browns |
Myles Garrett (DE) |
In most Drafts Garrett would not be the #1 overall pick. If there was a QB worthy the Browns would go in that direction. |
|
2 |
49ers |
Leonard Fournette (RB) |
The 49ers really want to trade down and accumulate picks. After not getting a deal done they surprise by taking Leonard Fournette as they view him a once in a generational type player. |
|
3 |
Bears |
Jamal Adams (S) |
Its going to be a secondary player for the bears unless Garrett somehow falls to them. Adams narrowly beats out Malik Hooker. |
|
4 |
Jaguars |
Solomon Thomas (DE) |
With Fournette off the Board the Jags go best player available and take Thomas to add to what is becoming a stout D-line. |
|
5 |
Titans |
Marshon Lattimore (CB) |
Titans need help in the secondary. The ultra athletic Lattimore is a great piece to add. |
|
6 |
Jets |
Mitch Trubisky (QB) |
Trubisky figures to be the first QB off the board and the jets hope he is finally the answer their problems under center. |
|
7 |
Chargers |
Malik Hooker (S) |
Awesome scenario for the chargers as they get the ball hawk safety they are missing. |
|
8 |
Panthers |
Derek Barnett (DE) |
No OT’s are worth this pick so they take an Edge rusher who was extremely productive at Tennessee. |
|
9 |
Bengals |
Reuben Foster (ILB) |
Diluted sample or not Foster just scream Bengals. They are getting one heck of a player. |
|
10 |
Browns(T) |
Deshaun Watson (QB) |
The brown move up to take Watson and hope he is finally the solution. |
|
11 |
Cardinals (T) |
Mike Williams (WR) |
The Cards move up slightly to take the WR who will eventually replace Larry Fitz. |
|
12 |
Bills(T) |
Ryan Ramczyk (OT) |
The one year stud from Wisconsin seems like a Buffalo type player. He can slide into left or right tackle. |
|
13 |
Saints(T) |
Marlon Humphrey (CB) |
After failing to trade for Malcom Butler the Saints draft the physical corner from Bama. |
|
14 |
Eagles |
John Ross (WR) |
Ross and his home run threat nudge out Corey Davis and give Carson Wentz a fun new toy. |
|
15 |
Colts |
Jonathan Allen (DE) |
Some teams are concerned with health issues. I believe if he falls this far it will be the steal of the draft. |
|
16 |
Broncos (T) |
Christian McCaffrey (RB) |
He could go higher than this. However, this is a great situation for him and opens up the playbook for this offense. |
|
17 |
Redskins |
Takkarist McKinley (DE) |
With help needed on the rush, McKinley bring his explosive play to the capitol. |
|
18 |
Titans |
Corey Davis (WR) |
Tennessee gets the most athletic corner and WR without having to move up. What a draft! |
|
19 |
Buccaneers |
O.J. Howard (TE) |
Winston gets another weapon in what will be a high scoring offense. |
|
20 |
Ravens (T) |
Jabrill Peppers (S) |
Harbaugh to Harbaugh connection allows an easy transition and helps to overlook the diluted sample. |
|
21 |
Lions |
Haason Reddick (OLB) |
The Lions need help at the linebacker position. Reddick can play any of the three positions. |
|
22 |
Dolphins |
David Njoku (TE) |
Miami to Miami for Njoku who will give Tannehill his best chance of succeeding this season. |
|
23 |
Giants |
Garrett Bolles (OT) |
Best tackle in the draft goes a bit later due to his age(25). |
|
24 |
Raiders |
Dalvin Cook (RB) |
On and off field issues plus just average workout are concerning. However, he is a stud and will thrive next to Derek Carr. |
|
25 |
Texans |
Patrick Mahomes (QB) |
I believe this is way to high for Mahomes but Houston needs a QB and the ultra-athletic strong armed kid doesn’t need to do much with a great defense. |
|
26 |
Seahawks |
Obi Melifonwu (S) |
Its either trade back with a QB needy team or depth in the secondary. I think they will try him at corner. |
|
27 |
Packers (T) |
Quincy Wilson |
Its no secret Green Bay needs help at any spot in the secondary. Green Bay moves up a few to select their guy. |
|
28 |
Cowboys |
Taco Charlton (DE) |
More consistent pass rush will help the cowboys stay atop the NFC East. |
|
29 |
Chiefs (T) |
Gareon Conley (CB) |
Help a crossed from Marcus Peters. A very strong 1-2 tandem at corner for the chiefs who seem confortable picking players with red flags. |
|
30 |
Steelers |
Budda Baker (S) |
Plays with the same passion and hair on fire as a former all pro Steelers Safety. |
|
31 |
Falcons |
Charles Harris (DE) |
Imagine if Atlanta had more pass rush in the second half of the Super Bowl. |
|
32 |
Saints |
TJ Watt (DE) |
More help on the defensive side of the ball for the saints is never a bad thing. |
