If Nothing Changes Come Draft Day, Who Would You Draft

SmootSmack · 01-22-2009, 01:48 PM

Suppose we made absolutely no moves prior to draft day, no free-agent signings (other than maybe some camp bodies), and no trades for more draft picks this year.

If we assume the above, that leaves us with a 1st, 3th, 5th, and 6th round pick.

So with all that in mind, give me your mock draft as of today(this is who you would want the Skins to use their picks on)

I'll start (I wanted to get Connor Barwin in here, but just couldn't find a spot for him)

1st-OT: Best Available and that probably means Michael Oher at this point, but I'm becoming a big Eben Britton fan and I'd be tempted to take him

3rd-C: Antoine Caldwell (looking more unlikely he'll be around, but someone like Luigs could fall down there)

5th-DE/LB: Lawrence Sidbury (out of Richmond, could be a steal)

6th-um....some running back

KLHJ2 · 01-22-2009, 02:19 PM

I have not finished my scouting yet so I will not be naming names.

1. OT

3. DT or DE (Best available of the 2 positions)

5. LB or OL (Best available of the 2 positions)

6. LB or OL or RB (Best available of the 3 positions and will not take same position as drafted in 5th)

Dirtbag59 · 01-22-2009, 02:20 PM

1st Round - Michael Oher - T - Ole Miss
3rd Round -
1st choice - Johnathan Luigs - C - Arkansas
2nd choice - Herman Johnson - G - LSU
3rd choice - Antoine Caldwell - C - Alabama
5th Round - Vance Walker - DT - Georgia Tech (collapses the pocket, stops the run, and plays with a high motor. However he lacks size and instincts)
6th Round - Zach Follet - LB - Cal (Not sure if he'll last this long but hey last year we thought Erin Henderson was going to be a 2nd or 3rd round pick and right now Follet is graded as a fringe 5th round pick)

My Nightmare Draft

1st Round - Percy Harvin - RB/WR - Florida ("He was easily the best player on our board and when you draft for need you get in trouble")
2nd Round - Alphonso Smith - CB - Wake Forest ("Well we thought trading next years 2nd and 3rd along with Carlos Rogers, as well as a fifth rounder next year was a good idea because we knew that this guy was high on our board. Plus this year we're not going to make the character mistake we made with Thomas and Davis last year")
3rd Round - Darry Beckwith - ILB - LSU ("Well we saw how well our division rival Dallas did with Brady James and Beck was definitely the best player on our board so we went for it")
5th Round - Maurice Wells - RB - Ohio State ("We wanted a big play threat at RB and we felt like Maurice was it. I mean sure most scouts had him going undrafted but he stuck out on our board like a sore thumb.")
6th Round - Grahm Harrell - QB - Texas Tech (" Did you see how many yards he threw for last year? Pair him with Colt and our fanbase will be thrown into civil war over who are 2nd string QB should be. We're excited about what Jim can do with him.")

Follow up comments from Vinny:
"We tried to trade back up into the first to get Brian Cushing but we couldn't find anyone who wanted Santana Moss, Jon Jansen, Cornelius Griffin, Shawn Springs, Marcus Washington, and Carlos Rogers in exchange for a first round pick."

"We would have gone O-Line but no one really stood out on our board, besides this wasn't a good year for O-lineman."

"Hey at least I didn't take any recievers.....or did I?"

"Percy Harvin is going to be the next Reggie Bush."

"I'm really excited about what the other Well's brings to the table.

"I tried to trade back but for some reason the phone line went dead."

If we don't draft the best tackle available with our 1st pick, I will be turning off the TV and not watching the remainder of the draft.

Sold! I'll see you there!

You ever go there on NFL Sundays? The Eagles fans in that place are so effing obnoxious (shocker).

Daseal · 01-22-2009, 02:40 PM

Easy. Best available player. We have a lot of holes. Just make sure it's an NFL type guy, not a college phenom like Reggie Bush.

OT, DT, LB, OG, K are my 5 most important positions right now.

Meks · 01-22-2009, 02:48 PM

1st - best guard
2nd - please trade for a pick - best de
3rd - best center
5th - florida states kicker
6th - LB

Nope, I'm usually in there on Friday or Saturday night. Not that often though.

MTK · 01-22-2009, 02:52 PM

Best available O-lineman or LB. I don't know any names yet, I won't start studying up until the combine.
