Yeah, I think there's still a great chance Cleveland doesn't make this pick. Really tough to pass on Lattimore at this point. But, a QB seems like what this pick gets used on SOMEHOW. Whether its Garoppolo, one of the big 4 at 12 or with a trade back-thats the question.

 

What sucks even more is they seem to only be connected to the two QB's already gone.

Browns take Lattimore, though I considered RB Cook, EDGE Charlton, even Jabril Peppers for SS, but it seems pretty high for him.

OJ Howard goes to the Bills and the Saints are on the clock

 

This was the right pick. I didn't consider him for whatever reason before I made my comment.

In no particular order, the Eagles have needs at DE, WR, RB and CB

 

I believe they 'd prefer one of the DE's to drop to them at such as Thomas or Barnett but alas they are both gone. There are lots of CB's still on the board but with the draft having a lot of CB depth, I think the Eagles will wait until 2nd and 3rd round to address CB.

Eagles need to start putting some offensive weapons around Wentz since they currently don't have many. Cook and McCaffrey would make some sense at #14 as would a young WR to grow with Wentz since recently signed Torrey Smith and Alshon Jeffrey are essentially on one year deals...

 

Eagles select WR Mike Williams, Clemson

Colts select WR John Ross

 

A WR? I'm not much of a colts fan but really a WR? These guys need a pass rusher something wacky

They have TY Hilton and....?

 

Not a fan of the available pass rushers with the 15th pick. I did consider Elijah Qualls.

 

Moncrief and Dorsett, but the WR corp isn't exactly reliable so I can see Ross to give Luck more weapons. If it was me, I would've gone with Cook.

I would have taken Fournette but overall not really into first round RBs. Ross scored a ton of TDs in college himself and aced the pre-draft stuff, so I went with him.

Fournette also went to Jacksonville in this mock at #4. I'd have taken him for Carolina at #8 otherwise.

There's rumors of Carolina trying to move up to 2. No idea if they'd take Fournette there or not, but Rivera said today there's no spot too high to take a RB. No idea why they'd jump the Bears, unless there's other teams also after Fournette and multiple teams are trying to move up. Again, just a rumor, no idea if RB is what they'd want in a move up.

 

For the Bears sake, I'd love to trade out of 3(but stay in the top 10). I do think Fournette is probably the player a team may be enticed to move up for in this draft.

I haven't heard anything about them wanting to move up to 2. Fournette is a logical move for the Panthers with Jonathan Stewart entering his 10th season (he just extended his contract one year, through '18).

Jacksonville has been linked to Fournette. Carolina jumping ahead of Jacksonville to #3 would be incredibly fortunate for the Bears. Davell spelled out some potential trade scenarios. According to the traditional draft chart, #3 = 2200 pts, #8 = 1400, #40 = 500, #64 = 270 (total =2170). Panthers 5th rounder is worth 30 points, making the trade perfectly even.

 

I would move back 5 spots in a hot second to pick up those two second rounders, as would most, but I'd be stunned if that was the offer. Think of what you could rack up with #8, 36, 40, 64, 67.

jumbo's titants are on the clock and then it's a few all skates with bastard teams

 

Titans select WR Corey Davis

I'll throw RB or DB help out as Tampa's biggest needs. No Safety worth taking here, decent amount of CB's in this general value range, but with this board, I think they'd go with McCaffery.

The Broncos need an Offensive Tackle in the worst way. Right now, they've got Menelik Watson and Donald Stephenson. That's awful. Elway is on record saying he's going to upgrade that. Whether its Robinson, Ramczyck, or Bolles, I'd expect them to take one from that group.

Anybody have Tampa or Denver thoughts?

 

In Biggs' mock draft he had the Bronco's taking OJ Howard, but I would go with a T. For Tampa, he selected WR Ross to pair with Mike Evans, which would be a dangerous combination.

 

By the way, Biggs had Lattimore going 3 to the Bears
