Estro Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 (edited) Round 1 - Marcel Dareus, DE, Alabama http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/multimedia/photo_gallery/1008/cfb.preview.all-sec.team/content.14.html Round 2 - Justin Houston, OLB, Georgia http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/multimedia/photo_gallery/1008/cfb.preview.all-sec.team/content.15.html Round 3 - Ahmad Black, SS, Florida http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/multimedia/photo_gallery/1008/cfb.preview.all-sec.team/content.20.html Round 4 - Joseph Barksdale, OT, LSU http://www.nfldraftscout.com/ratings/dsprofile.php?pyid=68510&draftyear=2011&genpos=OT Round 4 - Kelvin Sheppard, ILB, LSU http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/multimedia/photo_gallery/1008/cfb.preview.all-sec.team/content.18.html Tried to be as realistic as possible with what round each prospect is touted to be taken. I'm a big fan of Houston's and don't think he'll escape the 1st round, but he seems to be a fringe 1st round prospect on many sites, so I guess it's possible. The two LSU guys are round 3-4 guys, so we'd possibly have to part with a 5th rounder to move up in round 4 to get Sheppard. We all know Buddy is an SEC guy, not that that means anything, but this is a draft that would really give us a promising young nucleus on defense. Barksdale could provide nice tackle depth and perhaps win the RT job. If Dareus is off the board at #3, my next choice for round 1, following the same theme would be: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/multimedia/photo_gallery/1008/cfb.preview.all-sec.team/content.10.html Edited March 2, 2011 by Estro
boyst Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 Seems like a high pick for a SS when we just resigned Wilson and I actually believe Whitner will be back in a Bills uniform.

DrDawkinstein Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 Id LOOOOVE to go Dareus-Houston. That would be a huge win of the first 2 rounds.
dpberr Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 Big fan of Dareus, and that's who I want at #3. I think Barksdale would make a fine RT prospect. He'll drop to that round due to concerns over his "passive" demeanor.
tennesseeboy Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 I would like to see Luke Stocker TE out of Tennessee in the mix, but it looks like he is moving up well into the second round and maybe late first, and I think we have such needs on defense and offensive tackle that we can't go that high for him.
Rockinon Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 Seems like a high pick for a SS when we just resigned Wilson and I actually believe Whitner will be back in a Bills uniform. Many seem certain that he won't be, but I think you could be right here.
Estro Posted March 2, 2011 Author Posted March 2, 2011 I tried to get Clint Boling in the mock draft somehow, but I couldn't justify selecting an OG with the 34th pick. Boling is one of the top rated OG's in this years draft, and looks to be a late 1st-2nd round prospect. A solid guard would allow Wood to stay at C and solidify the interior of the line. It would be nice, but this team has much more pressing needs on defense and at the OT position. I believe Boling actually played tackle in college so I wouldn't count him out as a possible tackle, although most project him as an interior offensive lineman in the pros.
