Oh, by the way, if you click on the player's name, you get an evaluation of their pros and cons.

wtf, Dont'a Hightower 11th overall to KC? Jason Smith you are a goofus. The other KC picks are solid though.

Roddoliver · 01-17-2012, 12:06 PM

Broncos:

Jerel Worthy - good
Ryan Tannehill - dumb (it had to be Pat Kirwan)
Mark Barron - okay but I don't see it happening

DoughBoy · 01-17-2012, 12:14 PM

Jason Smith is a dumbass.

whatadai · 01-17-2012, 12:21 PM

Richardson to Cleveland at 4th overall? LOLWUT?

FuzzyGopher · 01-17-2012, 12:28 PM

Torry Holt is doing it wrong.

49erNation85 · 01-17-2012, 12:31 PM

i like sf pick..

K Train · 01-17-2012, 12:58 PM

dont mind glenn at all but theres much better players on each board at 24 than glenn, thats becoming an omg the steelers need oline glenn must be it pick.

barron is an awful pick though

JRTPlaya21 · 01-17-2012, 01:01 PM

If Tannehill goes #6 someone is getting slaughtered.

Finsfan79 · 01-17-2012, 01:08 PM

every miami pick is horrid.

We are going to spend a pick on a RB (despite a 1k rusher and a solid rookie last year) or a Right Tackle. Even when we have needs at QB, OLB, FS, WR, TE

Thecollegedropout · 01-17-2012, 01:14 PM

LOL at David Wilson at 16. I can live with him as a round 2 possible target ok but cmon he ain't going ahead of Floyd for the Jets.

Can live with the DeCastro and to a lesser extent, Perry picks but really David Wilson? Barron at 16 is a reach, if we trade down he'd be cool with me too.

HeavyLeggedWaistBender · 01-17-2012, 09:43 PM

3 Floyds and a DeCastro. ...And a half chub in a pear tree.

There was a 4th Floyd pick on the next page. Would be an ideal pick for the Bears.

Bald_81 · 01-17-2012, 10:00 PM

Not one of them projects Kalil to St. Louis? Alrighty then..

Of course, unless they are assuming we trade down with either Cleveland or Washington.

Edit: Oops, didn't click on more projections. Still, Mooch is the only one. That is fairly surprising, IMO.

OSUGiants17 · 01-17-2012, 10:03 PM

Did one of them really mock RG3 to St. Louis? That's hilarious!

Great Giants picks though aside from Poe.

Scott Wright · 01-17-2012, 10:08 PM

At least one person on that panel (Reuter) has a clue...

SchizophrenicBatman · 01-17-2012, 11:22 PM

I was just about to post that Reuter looks like the only guy who actually tried. I may not necessarily agree with Tannehill at 6 but QBs always get pushed up and the draft never goes by the book, especially the book written 100 days before the first round

Did anyone else even have Brockers listed? These guys know nothing. NFLN may as well just post 5 random mocks from our mock forum

I honestly believe there are a number of people on this forum who could put together a better mock draft than some of those. At least Chad is holding it down for us draftniks over there.

You sound like there is doubt in your mind? I guarantee you 90% of the people on this board have more football knowledge than all of those guys combined.

It's a joke. The media nowadays is a joke as far as who they hire to be analysts. How Dave Dameshek and Adam Rank can be hired as NFL analysts makes you wonder wtf is wrong with mankind. If it was some low level website then fine... but NFL.com? The official site of the National Football League? Pathetic.

To be fair, I doubt any of them has studied extensive film on the junior class, that just starts now, so these projection are probably based on nothing more than reputation.

Or it could be that none of them know what the hell they're talking about.

No doubt that is true for a lot of them, but there are a # of people who mocked who have decent reputations and I remember Mayock last year saying much further along in the post season process, that he was just starting to watch film on the junior class, so it seems reasonable to me as I said above, that these mocks are based more on reputation alone and very little film work.

SilentJaguar · 01-17-2012, 11:59 PM

4 for Coples, 2 for Kirkpatrick, 1 for Blackmon, and 1 for Reiff. Meargh....

No thanks to Coples in the top 10. Would take any of the others even if I'm not the biggest fan of Blackmon and would rather have Floyd.

Complex · 01-18-2012, 12:14 AM

Who is Jason Smith? I don't see him

Who did he pick for the titans?

dannyz · 01-18-2012, 12:22 AM

I would Love to see what Mike Mayock thinks, He is the only guy on NFLN who knows what he is talking about. I did watch The NFLN Today and was happy for once they did not talk Tebow Plus they showed Andrew Luck Highlights like the whole time. I Agree with Scott that there are more people on here that know more than guys on the NFLN with their Mocks.
