Jolly Rodgers Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 There is no way the Bucs draft Caddy when Mike Williams is still on the board. The Bucs have Pittman and Garner and will draft a RB in the 2nd round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REZ Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 At least this one has the 49ers drafting Rodgers instead of Smith. That's the way I would prefer it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nomis Posted March 16, 2005 Author Share Posted March 16, 2005 (edited) Well, I debated about having Tampa taking Mike W. instead, but I know Gruden likes Caddy. Well this is my first Mock, so I would be surprised if everyone liked it. I would like everyones feedback.

I would like everyones feedback. 736448[/snapback] Gruden coached Caddy in the Senior Bowl and was really impressed with him there. But, Mike Williams is from Tampa and the Bucs had over 12 players/personal there for his workout last week. Michael Clayton was even there and was quoted as saying he would push the team to pick Williams. Whether this is a huge smokescreen is yet to be seen. Good job on your Mock though.

Rovers Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 Heath Miller to the Jets is solid, if he's still there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Red Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 I don't believe the Ravens will spend their #1 (or a top 3) on a WR unless it is an unbelievable bargain. Derrick Mason is signed for the long term. Hymes is in his 4th year (3rd healthy) and Moore/Darling where drafted last year. My bet is we go with either an Offensive Lineman, Defensive Lineman or a Linebacker, depending on the value. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spain Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 1.06 – Tennessee Titans CB Antrel Rolle Miami This pick is very plausible, if, and thats a big if, the Titans dont trade down.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smithkt Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 Why would Carolina draft Cedric Benson? Isn't Davis coming back and Deshaun Foster is still a good alternative............ 736688[/snapback] Davis underwent micro-fracture surgery on his knee. At his age, I suspect his career is over. Foster certainly has potential as a replacement, but he too has an injury history. I don't think it's completely out of line for them to think RB.

loaf Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 I still think 3 is too high for Derrick Johnson. Would rather get a QB there and if not then Edwards... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it's completely out of line for them to think RB. 736757[/snapback] Yeah but if apply that same sort of logic there are a few teams ahead of Carolina they should all be picking RB's also. Cleveland William Green has been a bust and Lee Suggs hasn't shown he can be an every down back Chicago needs a RB more than they need a WR. They just signed Mushin Muhammed and Anthony Thomas is a UFA Tennessee Chris Brown appears to be injury prone and they have no depth behind him Arizona has Troy Hambrick, Shipp who didn't play at all last year and Damien Anderson. Out of all those situations I think Carolina is in the best position at RB........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The operation he had is not routine, and there are just as many who can't fully recover as there are those who have. Factor in his age and he might as well retire now. Foster is a question mark as well. He's already missed nearly two of three seasons due to injury. Nick Goings made a splash last year, but the coaching staff has already said they don't believe he could be their long term featured back. That's a lot of question marks. No doubt and argument could be made for any of these teams to draft a RB, including Carolina. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Backup running back DeShaun Foster had the same procedure in 2002 and didn't miss a beat, but wide receiver Patrick Jeffers had it and never played again. "I think everybody is different," Panthers general manager Marty Hurney said. "Stephen is competitive and has drive and determination. It was just done and it will be a process that takes several months. We'll take it as it goes." I wouldn't completely rule him out but I would say 50/50. The difference is this year Foster would be the #1 and Davis would be backing him up. I also think out of all those teams Foster is the best RB and being healthy Davis is better than any of those other teams RB's. I would think that losing Mushin Muhammed and considering Steve Smith is coming off of a leg injury WR would be a more pressing need..........

I haven't heard much regarding Smith's injury lately. Not sure how he is doing. They have starters at both positions coming off surgery.

Swampnuts Posted March 16, 2005 Share Posted March 16, 2005 If Benson fell to the Panthers at #14 they would draft him. Not out of need, but because he would be the best player available. But I don't believe he will be there. Arizona WILL take either Benson or Alex Smith whichever is left at the 8th pick. Panthers IMO will take either Alex Barron, Heath Miller, or Troy Williamson.

Nomis Posted March 16, 2005 Author Share Posted March 16, 2005 They way I look at it is there is a good chance Benson could slide to Carolina, and like Swamp said then they will grab him. Davis is done and the only thing that Foster has proved is that he is an injury risk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point was IF Benson was available at 14 they would take him. Or at least trade with someone else for the right to draft him. They would not however just pass him by.
