Re: 2010 NSBB mock draft

[dew1679666265]

Everywhere I've checked has Dixon in the 4.6 range, with Gerhart and Hardesty in the 4.5 range.

 

At the combine, Hardesty ran a 4.49 (and I believe he had a couple unofficial times in the 4.4-4.6 range). Gerhart ran a 4.53 at the combine.

 

Dixon's combine time was 4.51, but he just ran a 4.45 at his pro day. It's fairly minimal, but I like Hardesty/Dixon a little better than Gerhart.

The pro day article says Dixon ran a 4.45 short shuttle, but a 4.61 40. It's a minor quibble, I just like Gerhart better, I guess.

 

EDIT: I suppose, though, I could always draft him in 5 picks if I like him that much. :)

Yes, you would be right about the 40-time. Not sure how I misread it multiple times. You may have just convinced me to change the Browns' pick to Hardesty, actually. :D

 

And it's not that I dislike Gerhart, I just like Hardesty more (and Dixon when I thought he ran a 4.45).

[WrigleyField 22]

I love Gerhart. He's the great white hope.

[TruffleShuffle]

we don't really have a need at WR, so this is just a value pick - damian williams, WR, southern cal.

[dew1679666265]

soccer10k and the Raiders are on the clock. I PMd him.

I have no idea who's available so I'm open to suggestions both on that and who the Raiders should take, since I haven't been paying much attention there either recently.

Great athletes and guys with great tools on the board:

 

LB Jamar Chaney

QB John Skelton

QB Jarrett Brown

QB Jevan Snead

DE Greg Hardy

RB Joicque Bell

WR Mike Williams

WR Dezmon Briscoe

OG John Jerry

OLB Jason Worilds

DT Arthur Jones

SS Larry Asante

 

The best values here are probably Jerry, Jones, Worilds, Skelton and Brown. The best pure athletes are probably Williams (elite WR talent), Hardy (fantastic athlete) and Jerry (massive interior lineman). Purely need based, I'd look at linebackers, safeties and defensive tackles.

Well it is the Raiders, so let's look at best athletes.

Raiders select DT Arthur Jones, Syracuse.

[dew1679666265]

EhDubya and the Bills are now on the clock. I PMd him.

[Guest]

Hurry up, pick 75.

[jersey cubs fan]

This thing started 4 weeks ago and has really stalled out. We're much closer to the actual draft now and should probably hit a restart to get a better one up.

[bukie]

If we restarted the draft now, I'd probably laugh a bit.

Maybe one or two more picks.

Which small school that no one has ever heard of in Texas or Louisiana are you targeting, bukie?

This guy looks like a winner.

I don't know that a lot would change with a new one. Bradford would probably go with the first pick and that would change a couple of other first round picks, but I haven't seen a lot of players' stock change from 4 weeks ago to now – not drastically, at least.

 

Maybe we should start later next year, though.

Didn't we do it twice last year? I think it's more entertaining, and you'll see a better pace, if we restart it soon, instead of going really deep into the draft. I was kidding a bit with the Bears pick coming up soon, but in reality, I don't see the point in doing one pick a day for the next month.

 

It's not like doing multiple mock drafts is something strange.

Finish the third round and start over maybe? I noticed a definite dropoff later in the fourth round last year and that's when we started over. If the popular opinion is to start over, I'd say do it after this round (to let the Bears actually have a pick :D ) and then re-start.

The Bengals would probably be less likely to take Tate since they signed a WR in free agency.

That's possible, though they do need a young WR as well. I might be more inclined to focus on DE for the Titans as opposed to taking Kyle Wilson, though I leaned heavily DE the whole time anyway.

[dew1679666265]

Ok, supporting gooney's idea of re-starting the mock draft, we need to make a pick for the Bills. They took Dez Bryant and Colt McCoy in the first two rounds.

 

Thoughts?

[EhDubya]

Bills take Hardy, DE
