Usually have a half dozen or so mocks but this is whatcha get with a #89 as your first pick. Retaining three from 2.0 that I like a lot for those rounds.

#89 Mitchell Schwartz OT Cal 6-5 318, would be a real gift IMO. Has legitimate LT potential. Bushrod's contract is up this year and we haven't seen enough from Charles Brown to believe he is ready for primetime. Will take a run on OGs and defensive players to happen.
Previous: Zebrie Sanders OT Fla St, Sean Spence LB Mia


#122 Josh Norman CB Coastal Carolina 6-0 197, if he would happen to be available he screams Saints type pick. Small school, raw tools,
investment cool. Maybe too optimistic at this point but within the realm of possibility to hope for. Maybe pray for.
Previous: Josh Norman, Mike Martin DT Mich (gone for sure)


#162 Rhett Ellison TE USC 6-5 251, could use TE depth with the future of Thomas questionable. Not a great blocker but has tools to learn. Teamed with Graham could have some potential for matchup nightmares ala Patriots two TEs. A very reasonable expectation for 5th Rd too.
Previous: Janzen Jackson S McNeese (red character flags). Micah Pellerin Hampton DB (still a good pick)


#179 Akiem Hicks DL Regina 6-5 320, classic boom or bust player. You might remember him being ruled ineligible for LSU. I like the odds of Romeus or him being a lottery win.
Previous: Hicks, Jack Crawford DE Penn St


#234 T.J. Graham WR North Carolina St. 5-11 188, he offers one thing- blinding speed. Used almost solely as a deep threat. Very raw and has a lot of learning to become a developed WR. Could be another kick returner to have on roster. Father is a famous track coach.
Previous: Graham, AJ Jenkins (kinda funny now)

And Texas (owning #2 prospect in the nation Jackson Jeffcoat, especially at 1:50)

And first round pick Nick Perry's "highlights" vs Schwartz. Note that his one big play involved him playing LDE against their RT, not RDE. He doesn't do dick other than that. Schwartz OWNS him around 2:40 and 3:50.

But good job otherwise!


Schwartz alone would make it a good draft. I think he's a 1st round caliber player, he just isn't very athletic. Hicks seems a high upside DT worth taking a shot on. I don't know dick about the Norman guy.

Graham was 4.41 I think, not the quick looking type but long strider, reminds me of Meachem a lot.

perfectly reasonable. Robertson I might quibble about. Maybe a UDFA. I like Linthicum late but see him more 6th possibly 5th range.

That is a really good mock Blu.

Only Norman sticks out, who would be a great pick, but just not still on the board in the 4th.
Love to be wrong on that one.

I mocked Spence to the Saints previously. I love him as a undersized hustler. I don't consider a screaming value at 89 but no one to have any disappointment in at all if he was the guy. Getting a LB like him (Bobby Wagner, Keenan Robinson, etc) along with our FA guys might turn LBs to a strength instead of a liability.

Brown I count as no way being around at 89

Alexander is a 6th or 7th Rd developmental guy. In those rounds he wouldn't be a bad choice

And there goes Schwartz. My two favorite potential guys to have there are gone VERY early.

oh no, the Punter I wanted is off the board now

I am really hoping Ladarius Green falls to us at 89.
