The Redskins select safety Jimmie Ward, NIU.



The Skins need back end help like no other. With the top corners flying off the board they pounce on Ward, a safety that internet scouts love and seem to believe could go in the 1st.

with the 45th overall pick in the 2014 NFL Draft..




The Detroit Lions select.....














Jordan Matthews, WR Vanderbilt



Lions need someone for Stafford to throw to, and to take the pressure off of Megatron. Matthews is one of the SEC best WR ever. He is a big body 6'3 220 and runs a 4.4 40 yard dash. A WR corps of Matthews and Megatron gives the Lions a top set of skill position players.

Pick 17 of the 2nd round the jets select troy Nicklas. TE Notre dame this ooffense needs more weapons. I was torn between him and another wr left on board but this guy has great hands and is physical. Geno needs a dependable weapon and that's what he provides. With the depth at wide receiver they can still add one later on.

With the 52nd pick of the 2014 MSB/FSB draft, the Arizona Cardinals select...




























Don't know who that is?


















Jimmy Garoppolo, Quarterback out of Eastern Illinois

It seems as though all the teams in the NFC west are drafting out of pure luxury right now. Each team in the division now has a young and promising QB: The Seahawks have Russell Wilson, 49ers with Collin Kaepernick, Rams have Sam Bradford and Zach Mettenberger, and now the Cardinals have Garoppolo.

The Cardinals defense is loaded with talent, with names in their secondary such as PP7, Honey Badger, and a young Calvin Pryor who they drafted in the first round. They also signed Antonio Cromartie in the offseason. They have a solid linebacker corp as well. Perhaps in future rounds they will load up their defensive line.

A running back and a wide receiver was considered here, but this years class is so deep that it can probably wait until the next round. Instead of drafting a player at one of those positions, the Cardinals draft a QB that they believe they can groom into their franchise QB. It is no secret that Palmer is old and has struggled at times, and they really haven't had any reliable alternative besides him. With this pick, they potentially get that security.

And "potential" is what it comes down to with Garoppolo. He is young and by most accounts still a project, but some believe that he has the talent to become a star in this league. One scout recently compared Garoppolo's release to that of Dan Marino.

Other reviews of Garoppolo include:

quote:

ESPN's Mel Kiper believes Eastern Illinois QB Jimmy Garoppolo has the most upside of any prospect at the position.
"The reason I say upside is because if he would have put him in a major college program, where would he rank? Probably top five or top 10," Kiper said, adding Garoppolo has a super quick release. Rotoworld's Josh Norris also lists Garoppolo as his fifth quarterback, but questions his feet in the pocket and specifically under pressure. Kiper believes Garoppolo could go a bit later than he should due to playing in the FCS.


quote:

NFL Network's Charley Casserly believes Eastern Illinois QB Jimmy Garoppolo is the best prospect at the position on tape.
"Now level of competition is way below everybody else," Casserly began. "Very good vision. Best release in the draft. Can move in the pocket. Arm seems to be good enough. Totally raw, got to start from scratch on him." The main issue with Garoppolo is frenetic movement, and that is only escalated when pressured. Buzz seems to point to Garoppolo being selected in the second-round.

With pick 54 the Philadelphia Eagles select:

Dion Bailey, S, USC



Few reasons for this pick:

1) Eagles still need safety help

They signed Malcolm Jenkins to give them someone who is at least a dependable, veteran leader. They re-signed Nate Allen to a one-year deal but he's not great at anything. The rest of the depth chart is meh. Bailey is a guy with starter upside.

2) Chip Kelly loves guys he coached against

Bailey played well against his Oregon teams twice.

3) Versatility

Kelly loves guys that can do anything. Bailey is a consummate team player, guy who will eat up blockers so others can make tackles. He plays STs. He can cover. He can hit. He can cover slot guys, TEs, RBs, etc.

I think that's what will attract them to him.

With the 80th pick the jets select Cody latimar. wr Indiana. Late riser. Kiper has him going in the first in his new mock. Wanted him for saints but jets need weapons. 6'2 215 4.4 speed great hands. Adding him and nicklas along with decker makes the jets offense all of a sudden at least respectable.

In the 3rd round Chicago selects...

Pierre Desir, CB, 6-1, 198, Lindenwood



They find Peanut Tillman's heir apparent with this pick. A taller cornerback who takes the ball away and who is perfect for the system they run.

With the 88th pick in the MSB Mock Draft the Cincinnati Bengals select...

















Anthony Johnson, DT, LSU...

quote:

Johnson is explosive, very fast and has a great skill set, plus a lot of upside. He's been nicknamed "The Freak" because of his size and speed combination. That is saying something considering some of the other athletes the program has produced in recent years including Patrick Peterson, Morris Claiborne and Barkevious Mingo.

With the 91st pick in the NFL Draft, the New Orleans Saints select..









Paul Richardson, WR, Colorado



quote:

STRENGTHS: Terrific athlete who appeared every bit as agile and explosive in 2013 after missing the entire 2012 season with a torn ACL. Very good straight-line speed making him an excellent option on vertical routes. Savvy route-runner who alters his gait off the line and throughout his route to gain separation from cornerbacks. Sinks his hips and explodes out of his breaks.

Generally plucks the ball cleanly out of the air with his hands, securing it quickly. Can track the ball over either shoulder and flashes the ability to dive and haul in the extraordinary catch.

Good vision to set up blocks. Good bloodlines. Father, Paul, Sr., played wide receiver in the NFL with Philadelphia, Oakland, Green Bay and the New York Jets.




And as you can see by the picture he was a team captain, which is a big plus in my book.

With the 92nd pick in the NFL the CArolina Panthers select...








Billy Turner, OT, North Dakota St.



quote:

STRENGTHS: Athletic with good shuffle to protect the edge, staying light on his feet to mirror. Good set up quickness, patience and reflexes with body coordination and bend. Strong at the point of attack with powerful initial jolt, generating power from his built upper body and long arms. Doesn?t slow at contact, showing latch-and-drive quickness and fight through the whistle. Good vision at the second level and the open field to come off initial block and eliminate the LB/DB ? looks natural on combo blocks. Has the frame to get stronger. Looks to punish and plays with a mean, nasty temperament. Easy to appreciate his on-field demeanor. Energetic finisher and plays through the whistle. Football bloodlines as his father played RB at Utah State and was drafted by Minnesota Vikings (1983), brother played LB at BYU and was drafted by NY Giants (2008). Four-year starter with time at both left and right tackle (56 career starts ? 44 left tackle, 12 right tackle) ? two-time consensus All-American (2012-13) and part of three straight FCS National Championships.
WEAKNESSES: High cut body type with leaner-than-ideal lower body. Needs to keep his belt and butt low to stay balanced and win with leverage. Needs to keep his pad level low and dig his cleats in the ground, can be knocked off balance in space. Bad habit of lunging and allowing his upper half to be overextended. Needs to stay under control on the move to better break down. Late to protect the edge at times and looks more comfortable when not asked to cover a large area. Needs to do a better job with hand placement to better redirect rushers and keep defenders from attacking his body. Level of competition is a question mark ? didn?t face top-flight talent week-to-week in college. All of his experience is at tackle, not inside at guard.


Panther's kind of hindered themselves by going 2 WR in a row in such a deep class, but they make up for by taking a small school tackle who luckily fell to them in the 3rd. No Cam can throw from his feet, instead of his arse.

With the 93rd pick in the 2014 mock draft the NEw England Patriots select....









Will Sutton, DT Arizona State



The Pats take advantage of this mock's gross overrating of all LSU players by taking what some say is a 2nd round talent here in the 3rd at a position in need of depth

The Pats do run a 4-3 that will allow a guy like Sutton to rush the passer from the inside despite his short arms much like Geno Atkins does for the Bengals. That could be deadly with Chandler Jones salivating after the QBs on the other side of him.

Sutton will fight for snaps with Armond Armstrong and help lighten the load on Big Vince (and Tommy Kelly possibly) to ensure a catastrophe like last year doesn't happen again. With two new weapons on offense and a need filled on a talented defense, the Pats couldn't ask for the cards to fall much better than they have
