Not sure why the format didn't copy over nicely...I will fix that later.

 

[Donnybrook]

It is interesting. Some of the most contraversal ranking are Te'o at 23, Ogletree at 44 and Patterson falling to 30.

His ranking seem to be effected by the NFL rumor mill. Is Teo that much better Olgetree? He had Patterson as his top receiver for months and now he is at 30.

Tavon Austin catapults on Mike Mayock's Top 100 list
By Gregg Rosenthal

Around The League Editor

The rise of West Virginia's Tavon Austin is complete. Perhaps the most talked about prospect of the last few weeks is now atop NFL Network's Mike Mayock's top-five lists at wide receiver heading into next week's 2013 NFL Draft. Just as noteworthy: Austin is No. 12 on Mayock's big board.

We unveiled Mayock's Top 100 players Friday on NFL.com, and the gap between Austin and the No. 2 receiver is eye opening: Tennessee wide receiver Cordarrelle Patterson is all the way down at No. 30.

The perception of Patterson has changed more than perhaps any player throughout the draft process. Once seen as a potential top 10 pick, conventional wisdom has Patterson's stock much lower these days. Mayock said Thursday that he could see Patterson falling out of the top 20. Five more takeaways from Mayock's Top 100:

1. Central Michigan's Eric Fisher isn't just Mayock's top offensive tackle. He's the No. 1 player on the entire board. It would not surprise me if Fisher, not Texas A&M offensive tackle Luke Joeckel, goes No. 1 to the Kansas City Chiefs. Mayock has five offensive linemen in his top eight.

2. Missouri defensive tackle Sheldon Richardson is seventh on Mayock's board. Richardson is part of a very deep defensive tackle crop. Utah's Star Lotulelei is No. 11.

3. Oregon's Kyle Long might not crack the top five among offensive tackles, but he's still No. 29 overall. That's ahead of prospects like Florida State offensive tackle Menelik Watson, Washington cornerback Desmond Trufant and Georgia linebacker Alec Ogletree, who lands at No. 44. (For comparison, NFL.com's Daniel Jeremiah has Ogletree at No. 18.)

4. West Virginia's Geno Smith is the highest-ranked quarterback at No. 21. Syracuse's Ryan Nassib moved up to No. 4 on Mayock's quarterback rankings, but still only ranks No. 50 overall. Mayock is not overly high on N.C. State's Mike Glennon (No. 81), who barely ranks ahead of Tennessee's Tyler Bray. (No. 86.)

5. Ziggymania has reached NFL Films. Mayock ranks BYU defensive end Ziggy Ansah No. 9 overall.

Patterson has done very poorly in his team interviews from the combine, the pro day, and from other team visits (apparently).

His top 100 is conforming to where he thinks they will be drafted. It more like a Gosslin type top 100. It seems to be more of what teams think of these players rather than what Mayock thinks of these players. It is very different than a Russ Lande type top 100.

Looking at this list .... wow, what a boring draft from a fantasy perspective.

Looking at this list .... wow, what a boring draft from a fantasy perspective.

IMO, it's not boring at all. In years past there's usually a few prospects that regardless of situation are already the top in the class. This year, not so much. To me, when there's clear cut top guys and then a huge dropoff it's more boring from a fantasy perspective. This year there could be a big shuffle of the top prospects depending on situation and in a draft like this there's many people, who in the right situation, could have solid fantasy potential. The depth at each position will make this a very interesting draft IMO.

Read that Mayock is statistically the best mock drafter/predictor/rater guy out there (followed by Kiper and McShay). Can't find an actual mock he's done for 2013 - anyone aware of one? Gracias.

Mayock only does one mock draft, the day before the real draft.

 

[Slapdash]

Rankings on Eric Reid are all over the place.

 

[Bracie Smathers]

Mayock's top-100 list has been fairly accurate for naming the top 100 players that have gone off the board in the last two or three drafts.During the draft I like to have Mayock's list handy to figure out who remains out who is still standing by the late second round. I've found his list isn't perfect but his top-100 has been pretty accurate over the last two-three years.

I wouldn't get too bogged down on where he has a particular player ranked or the sequence of the names but on-the-whole the names he lists will likely to get called in the first couple of rounds of the draft.

 

[cstu]

Bernard at #62 is surprising, behind Le'Veon Bell.

You mean the Notre Dame football analyst ishyping one of Norte Dames' players? You must be kidding.

Nice. I'll definitely be tuning in Wednesday!

Thank you Faust. You don't get enough credit for keeping us informed.

Back to Mayocks mock, Lacy in a Packers uniform is my worst nightmare.

I know some Viking fans don't like Patterson but I think his ability to take a short pass to the house fits with Ponder as our QB. I don't really see Justin Hunter as a fit since Ponder will have a hard time getting the ball to him down the field. Hunter is getting mocked to Vikings often as of late.

I think that my desire to scour the internet and to post the information that I find here on these boards, it may be a sickness.

Mike Mayock's mock draft: 7 takeawaysBy Gregg Rosenthal

Around The League Editor

There are mock drafts, and then there are Mock Drafts.

Mike Mayock's annual swing of the bat before the draft is the only one I pay close attention to due to everything that goes into it. Mayock's mock is a culmination of all the information-gathering he's done over this long draft process.

The entire mock can be viewed here. Here were my big takeaways after watching the taping:

» Mayock had three offensive tackles going in the first four picks, including Central Michigan's Eric Fisher to the Kansas City Chiefs. He explained that Oklahoma's Lane Johnson's athleticism was too much for Chip Kelly and the Philadelphia Eagles to pass up. Mayock said Johnson is the perfect fit for that offense.

» Mayock called the San Diego Chargers' offensive line a "mess." Even with the tackles off the board, they take the safest pick on the board at a position of need: Chance Warmack at guard. Fellow guard Jonathan Cooper of North Carolina went four picks before, to the Arizona Cardinals at No. 7. Cooper going ahead of Warmack in these mocks is a growing trend.

» New York Jets fans would be ecstatic if this mock came true. They came away with Oregon pass rusher Dion Jordan at No. 9 and Notre Dame tight end Tyler Eifert at No. 13. That looks almost as delicious as when the Jets landed Shaun Ellis and John Abraham in the first round of the 2000 NFL Draft.

» Houston's D.J. Hayden was the top cornerback on Mayock's big board, but Alabama's Dee Milliner was the first cornerback taken at No. 10. Hayden went to the Indianapolis Colts at No. 24. Mayock believes Colts general manager Ryan Grigson would be "thrilled" if Hayden falls to them.

» Georgia linebacker Jarvis Jones told NFL.com's Ian Rapoport on Tuesday that he wouldn't get past the Pittsburgh Steelers at No. 17. That's exactly where Jones was slotted by Mayock. It's a perfect match.

» The Minnesota Vikings surely would be celebrating if Tennessee wide receiver Cordarelle Patterson falls to them in the first round as Percy Harvin's replacement. Please watch the show, if only to see Mayock re-enact this celebration.

» Some of the other big first-round surprises include guys who NFL teams may view more favorably than the draftnik cognoscenti: Syracuse offensive lineman Justin Pugh to the New York Giants at No. 19, LSU safety Eric Reid at No. 21 to the Cincinnati Bengals, Tennessee wide receiver Justin Hunter to the Houston Texans and Stanford tight end Zach Ertz to the San Francisco 49ers at No. 31.

1 QB, 1 RB, 3 WR 2 TE, almost looks like the line up of a fantasy team...

Lots of guys falling to the second, will we see a WR run at the top of the second?

Exactly. As soon as I saw Te'o' that high I disregarded it as bias. And that's not a criticism towards Mayock. Its just natural that you will gravitate towards the guys you have the most familiarity with. But I think he has too much exposure to Te'o' to rank him unbiased vs. the others.

 

[Shutout]

I don't know where you might get the list in print but I know when listening to Sirius NFL radio, Gil Brandt pretty much nails every freaking pick. A couple of years ago, I think he got like 95 out of the top 100 and the vast majority exactly in the spot. Back when Young and Leinart came out, I remember listening and him saying something like "this would be a good spot to trade this pick and take this guy (whoever he was tlaking about) and sure enough, team traded and took the guy. I don't know how often he is that accurate but it seems like every time I listen in, its like he is orchestrating the draft.
