thanks! - forgot to update my template
Totally different kind of player. Keller is basically a supersized slot receiver. Pettigrew is a traditional three down TE. I expect Keller to be the de facto WR2 this year.
I stand by the two safeties - they dont have an experienced SS, and McBath can be a great centerfield, I think Eugene Wilson is just average there at best. the lack of an RB was an oversight and im about to fix it - danke
I didn't see Andre Brown. Did I miss him?ETA: I see him on the Team listings to Houston at 112 but not on the main list.
Fixed, Thanks... last second clean-up.
No WRs to Miami, but Wells in the 1st? Interesting. Pretty crowded backfield, with no WRs. I know a lot of people will agree with a RB to Miami, but I do not see it in the first round. Maybe with one of their second rounders or a third (Peerman/A.Brown?), but I just dont see it happening in the first no matter who falls.Love to look at this stuff though. Will even love it more when the real one comes out on Saturday!
More of a BPA pick than anything else - a la Mendenhall to Pittsburgh last yearI was probably remiss to not put a WR in there... another last second adjustment, hold on...
The way this mock shook out, there really was not a great pick there for Miami. I know it is easy to say and difficult to do, but if it went this way I could see them finding a team that covets Wells and trading down. Arizona jumps out. Swap 1st round picks, and pick up a 4th - grab V.Davis or Butler - maybe English, Britt, or Laurinitis at that spot. If they stay put and the draft unfolds like this, I think they reluctantly go WR in the first. My guess would be Nicks. Pittsburgh had the luxury to be able to draft Mendy last year. Miami does not have that same luxury. Too many true needs to fill. Ronnie/Ricky/Cobbs is a solid trio already. Wells is simply unnecessary in this draft.
I have them going for a possible 3-4 end (from USC even
)in the next round. My logic on the WR pick is that Chambers contract is up, they don't seem to be looking to make a long term commitment to Floyd (and he's not that durable), Craig Davis 
, Naanee seems like a #3/novelty guy at best. They need to make some plans for the future, and Thomas can be a slot receiver right now.
I agree, for the most part. The only part that doesn't sit right with me is two selections of a DT before the last selection of a DE/OLB.I would flip those selections, as far as the position themselves are concerned. From what I learned just yesterday, DT isn't all that high on their board, whereas DE/OLB is much higher. In fact, I could see them selecting one at #51 if Robiskie is gone and still land a safety at #69.
first off Bloom you know i'm a big fan of your work but........R U a cowboy fan? U R killing the Texans. You gave us a bunch of Mediocre players at best. We dont draft like that any more. In the 4th I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't come out of that round with both Murtha and Knox. 2 Safeties in B-2-B rounds?? I've come around to Chung in the 2nd but if we take another S in the 3rd with the amount of value that will be there he had better be an athletic freak or something. Also I see you starting to raise McGee up to the 3rd is he starting to get more buzz? I agree with u but many have him as 4-8th qb in a weak class. And by the way the QBs are taking alot of heat in this draft but the LBs after Curry dont do anything for me at all. Overall its great, way to grind it out man.
I'd like that. A TE playing like a WR.
I might be underestimating the DE/OLB need - although I like Spencer a lot - but I do want to say that Irvin is more of a 3-4 DE and Knighton is more of a NT (although he might be decent at DE too) - so these picks address depth at different positions.
Ringer seems like more of a 4th rounder to me. If the Jets 1st 3 picks are Pettigrew, Ringer and Barden, I fully expect the need for the National Guard to be called in to get Jets fans from rioting.According to the mock I think they have BY FAR the worst draft of any team.I like the Colts draft a lot, especially Casey since he seems very much like an Indy type player and they could use another pass catcher.The Jags draft looks good, I think they may address WR a little earlier, although when healthy I think Tate is one of the 5 best WRs in this class, and better than Nicks.Beanie to Miami is very interesting, doesn't seem like a Parcells move or a need, but if they are truly unhappy with Brown it would make sense.For not having a 1st rounder, I like Carolina's draft. Pat White could be very interesting there, possible wishbone set with him, D-Will and Stewart? Could be this year's wildcat.The best draft in my eyes, belongs to Atlanta, Ayers, Nelson and Dillard could all go about a dozen picks higher so if Atlanta gets all 3 they'd be pretty thrilled, especially Nelson who I believe is the best receiving TE in the draft.
They've always wasted two 2nd rounders on Alexander and Bullocks and have little to show for it.
