irish Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Welcome to all those who have offered up their time and effort to participate in this NFL Mock Draft, along with those wanting to follow along!! This should be a lot of fun watching fellow Huddlers play GM for their Homer and other teams. Please keep all comments in this thread only as the actual selections will be in the other Draft thread. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeeR Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 1.01 Bortles - In the end IMO this is the clear choice. Bortles has more upside than Bridgewater, who underwhelmed in his workouts and has questions about his more slightish build, while O'Brien reportedly loves the bigger, stronger Bortles and can coach him into greatness. Clowney's questionable attitude and the lack of need, along with the severe need at QB, mean he's not a serious consideration. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irish Posted March 22, 2014 Author Share Posted March 22, 2014 BeeR decided it was overwhelming to make both picks back to back right away. Need some time to let it settle between. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flemingd Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 The Rams weren't prepared for the curveball just thrown at them, need to reset the board their entire mock prep had them taking Bortles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figured you were disappointed with the first go around that I'd try again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeeR Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 If the Rams hadn't re-signed Saffold and had so much coin tied up in him and Long, I'd have went with Robinson...but they've committed themselves to crossing their fingers and praying these guys stay healthy, and despite adding Austin are in serious need of play-makers, so IMO Watkins is the pick to make. If the OL stays healthy (and therefore Bradford, probably), this suddenly becomes a much better offfense and Steven Jackson will be sitting there going "you effing @#@$% why didn't you get guys like this when I was there" - there may still be able to nab a top OL (eg Lewan) later if they so desire, but there won't be a WR near this level by then, most likely.

I see, so now it's my fault that I started it, you saw it and made only 1 of 2 picks which were back to back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theirish Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Tough choice with Clowney, Robinson, and Bridgewater here. However, I think Jags have upgraded their defense enough in the front 7 and believe they will want to take Bridgewater to make an immediate impact to their offense.

flemingd Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Browns are disappointed that both Bridgewater and Watkins are gone. The plan was Bridgewater all the way, and with the depth in this draft still get a very high quality WR later. Clowney is the best player in the draft, and it's a mistake to think he "doesn't fit a 3/4" - he's an impact player and those guys fit anywhere. I trust Ray Horton to do wonders with this guy. A trade down wouldn't be out of the question. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flemingd Posted March 22, 2014 Share Posted March 22, 2014 Robinson was a pretty easy combination of BPA and need. Schaub buys us another year or two at QB, and maybe we can polish McGloin or Pryor up more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
