NSBB mock draft 2.0 - PCP (Minnesota) on the clock

[dew1679666265]

Alright, still no sign of Warpticon, so I guess I'll make this pick.

 

Warp mentioned in the previous draft that the Dolphins needed pass rushing help pretty badly. Luckily, the second fantastic value to come off the board is primarily a pass rushing OLB/DE.

 

So, with the 25th pick in the draft, the Dolphins select OLB/DE Aaron Maybin from Penn State.

 

WrigleyField 22 and the Ravens are now on the clock. I PMd him.

The Patriots have two fantastic values to choose from here that fit a need perfectly for them. They decide to go with the slightly better value, however.

 

So, with the 23rd pick in the draft, the Patriots select OLB/DE Everette Brown from Florida State. Brown is probably a top 15 talent at absolute worst and likely is good enough for top 10. Combined with Jerod Mayo this will be a lethal LB duo for years to come.

 

Vanilla Ice and the Falcons are now on the clock. I PMd him.

 

As an FSU fan, I would LOVE to see EB go to a team like this. I think he would thrive in that type of professional environment.

Honestly, if you don't thrive in the Patriots' organization, you won't thrive anywhere.

[WrigleyField 22]

Ravens select Alphonso Smith, CB, Wake Forest.

[dew1679666265]

CCP and Exile are now on the clock for Indianapolis' pick.

 

I PMd them.

[CubColtPacer]

Since there is almost the same people available as last time for the Colts (although Heyward-Bay is intriguing, he would be a departure from other Colts receivers) and the Colts needs certainly haven't changed with free agency, I don't think Exile will be upset if I go ahead and select the same person:

 

Knowshon Moreno, RB, Georgia.

[dew1679666265]

EhDubya and the Bills are now on the clock.

 

I PMd him.

[dew1679666265]

Ok, the Bills here must use this pick to replenish the reason they have the pick in the first place.

 

So, with the 28th pick in the draft, the Buffalo Bills select OT Eben Britton from Arizona.

I guess the Giants are up so, the Giants select wide-reciever Heyward-Bey.

[dew1679666265]

PCP is not online right now, but the top player from our previous board still lingers, so I'm going to go with him.

 

With the 30th pick in the draft, the Titans select CB Darius Butler from Connecticut. Butler is very athletic and has the skills to play the Titans' largely man defense. He's not extremely physical, but that can improve. I'd love to take the homer pick here (DJ Moore) but Butler is the better player.

 

Flames and CFNBM are now on the clock for the Cardinals.

 

I'll PM them.

Don't mind at all.

 

Remain thoroughly pleased with the selection.

[WrigleyField 22]

Just FYI, Britton is from Arizona.

[dew1679666265]

Just FYI, Britton is from Arizona.

 

Thanks, I should have known that. I think being sick is messing with my mind or something.

 

I knew I should have looked it up.

[Flames24Rulz]

We took McCoy with our first rounder in the last mock draft, but Beanie Wells is still available so the Arizona Cardinals select Wells with the next-to-last pick in the 1st round.

[dew1679666265]

Oh yeah, AI and the Steelers are on the clock.

 

I PMd him.

[jersey cubs fan]

Oh yeah, AI and the Steelers are on the clock.

 

I PMd him.

 

this is over 12 hours old, let's make a pick for him.

[jersey cubs fan]

Duke Robinson was his pick the first time, offensive line seems to be the place they could use the most help.

[dew1679666265]

Yeah, AI took Duke Robinson last time in this spot and he's still here, so I see no reason not to go with him again. Though I think either Unger or Mack are a better value and both can play guard.

 

So, the Steelers finish up the first round by selecting G Duke Robinson from Oklahoma.

 

Cro Magnon and the Lions are once again on the clock. I'll PM him.

I actually think Mike Aller and the Browns are supposed to have my (Bucs) second pick.

 

The Browns received a second-round pick this year and a fifth-round selection in 2010 for Winslow, whose stay in Cleveland was marked by brilliance, injuries and controversy.

 

I'm way too honest.

[Warpticon]

Alright, still no sign of Warpticon, so I guess I'll make this pick.

WrigleyField 22 and the Ravens are now on the clock. I PMd him.

 

You picked who I would have picked. How doe something happen EVERY TIME it's my turn to pick? I was watching the board specifically waiting for my turn, and somehow missed it. I even got a pm, and it was deleted before I got it. The hell?

You definitely are too honest. :D

 

But you are also right and I made the change.

Hey, at least I'm getting your picks right I guess. :D

Since this is the spot with the most draft talk, I'll leave this link here.

I'm especially fond of his last point.

[reggiemiller rules]

The Rams need help at WR and Lb. My choice from last time Nicks is still there, but I think I am going to change my pick and go with James Laurinitis LB from The Ohio State University.
