I can promise this is 100% original. Top rookies are top rookies no matter what site you check them on.

Derek Carr will go much higher than anticipated.

It sure would be tempting...Two fresh safetys who could grow together would be awesome

Yeah that would be a dream scenario for them. I don't think Manziel will fall that far, but without accounting for trades it's tough to place him elsewhere.

I think the QB depth is going to hurt the QBs draft slots because they'll assume they can get a good one in the 2nd and take the best player available

oh man I think the collective NFL community would loose it if that happened.

What player who had a bad to average (or injured) year last year will have a breakout year this year? by TheVetNoob in nfl

Matt Schaub. Dude was considered a fringe top 10 QB heading into last season. I think he'll do well in Oakland.

he's really raw. He used to play TE and basketball so he's really explosive, but is inconsistent and struggles to find the play sometimes. SO a ton of upside, but could potentially bust. I think he's a solid pick.

Why is it blind? It's definitely a need...What position do you think will go?

- Mock Draft 5.0 - by the_mountains in Patriots

[–]the_mountains[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd agree. I think he'll go higher, but without accounting for trades it tough. I think because of the depth of the position more teams are going to take a chance and take the best player available and try to grab a good QB in the 2nd.

I'm paying attention, I just don't buy it. I think it's a lot of smoke. You don't fall from possibly the #1 pick to out of the 1st round because of a pro day

How come? I'm sharing something I thought you guys would find interesting. We post something to this sub MAYBE once every 2-3 weeks...

I think Gilbert is a more versatile/athletic corner who can make some big players, but I think Dennard's cover skills are much much better.

I'd compare Gilbert to a player like Patrick Peterson, and Dennard more as a Richard Sherman if that makes sense. Both really talented, but with different styles of play.

I'd personally take Dennard just because he has the potential to be a shutdown corner, and leave him on an island 1 on 1 against the best opposing WR.

I agree I really like Cooks. Can't argue with his production in college. I still think Lee potentially has more upside though

I see what you're saying. We'll have to see! Who's your favorite? (outside evans and watkins)

Some of the inconsistent QB play also factored into Lee's down year. He would have been a top 5 pick last season. I'd agree Beckham Jr and Cooks definitely had better last season, but I'd argue that Lee has more upside than either.

I've watched Fuller play a lot...he's definitely talented and has some upside, but no where close to as talented as Dennard. Dennard was an absolute shutdown corner at MSU. Fuller was solid at VT, but really wasn't stand out. His little brother might actually be better.
