Mock draft season

[RyanC883]

today's morning draft.  Interesting taking a LB in the first round, but he was the clear BPA when the pick was up.  Really happy with the whole draft, and think the first 4-5 are clear 1st year contributors.

Thanks, appreciate the insight!

 

Thoughts on Skattabo as potential Cook replacement?  Not saying I want to get rid of Cook, I don't think anyone does.  But I'd be inclined to trade him as part of a Garrett package.  

 

 

I want to keep Cook, but I would send him with pick 30 for Dexter Lawrence. I would also target Slayton....and maybe think about a short prove it deal to Ojulari.

Draft DT and a big, strong Edge. I really believe in Solomon. Maybe sign a Reddick post draft.  Affordable moves I would think.

I though McCord looked the best throwing at the combine. I'm a no on Riley.

 

I think McCord instantly is an upgrade at backup QB for us.  I think he is a sneaky pick that someone will take in the 2nd.  I think it's Ward, Sanders, Dart, then McCord.

He seemed way more accurate than the others.

You do think that a QB in RDs 3-5 would be a good idea though, right? Or am I alone on that? How do you feel about Will Howard?

I'm no expert, just watched some combine. I do think it's about time to draft a QB so there is time to develop if possible. Keeping vet guys like Mitch just seems like wasting of money going forward. No to a 3rd rounder, which we need to find a way into, but 4th on sure.

This is one of my draft man crushes.  I think he's going to end up being the best or second best pass rusher this draft.  He just has all the moves and produces against top competition.

 

I'd be happy to draft him.

Why do the Bills have pick 31 in this mock?

My rule this year in mocks is every trade offered by the Chiefs, I accept. Just like Beane.

 

This was one with 3 trades with KC where I picked up most of their 2026 draft (R3, R5, R6, R7). Honestly, was pretty happy with it. Chiefs got these 3 guys with 30, 56, 62: Walter Nolen, Isaiah Bond, and Harold Fannin, who are already in the NFL Hall Of Fame as a result.

here is my morning draft.  I feel that the early picks can get on the field soon and provide impact (first 5, really).  The others provide high-upside development and future potential starters, including Lindenberg, Biggers (1T--1st year rotation there also is possible), Slater, Gadsen II (potential Kincaid replacement if needed to trade him away), and Crawford.

no way McCord lasts until the 6th where my mock's take him, but he's an instant upgrade over the backup vets we currently have.  If we want a legit vet backup, I'd love J. Winston.  Yeah, INTs, but he also moves the ball.  Seems like the guy you win 50-60% of games with if Allen missed time.
