I know these mocks are silly for a lot of reasons, but I posted this one for two reasons, one, though probably a pipedream, Chase Young would be fantastic, and two, has anyone here heard of the #9 pick? Josh Jones, OT from Houston? I follow college football, but never heard of this guy. I know there's a big college football/scouting community on BBI, anyone watch this guy?
CBS 2020 mock draft - (
New Window )
...keep the Mock Drafts coming!
We gotta get excited about something!
In fact, screw it...I just want Jeudy.
He's a physical specimen who can play multiple positions, he's going to crush the combine, and his play on the field backs it up.
He plays the run, sets the edge,and rushes the passer.
He is a three down end, who can play in a 3/4 or a 4/3.
Young can play inside which adds another dimension.
He is 6'-5" 265 lbs and leads college football in sacks.
He also comes from a good family and has a great work ethic.
Pray Tua/Eason/Herbert/Fromm play and test well leading to the draft. Ideally, 2-3 of those guys drop to the 5-7 range in the 1st round. Hope we're on the clock and have a chance to nab an elite EDGE, LT, or WR at a position of need. Young will most likely be a top 3/4. Jeudy and Thomas are realistic.
If DG is still GM, and MG is re-signed, the only way we premium draft an ER is if he is viewed as a generational talent, not just best of that year's positional group.
At some point, an organization has to trust its development ability, and we have other glaring needs (OT, FS, ILB, OC) where we have not invested in premium athletic talent.

Oh God, why would they do that? I hope they lose complete faith in their development ability, so much so that they address it by purging all coaches.
I wonder about Cincy, because the QB they took in this past draft looks pretty good. I'm not sold that they would go in that direction.
I spent 10+ years rabbling about drafting OL early and often .
Now it's even worse than that . The
League has moved on and we have not the talent on D at all especially lbs and s fs
So, whereas we could use a RT and a center: Suck it up, start a more practical run scheme and;
draft defense early and often next spring..or until you can field a run game worth investing in
Maybe a big TE
Do the line spring 2021 and wrs as well.then.
I don't see it. Herbert has some red flags and people are going to question whether or not he has improved for 2 straight years. Tua is a QB that's going to get a lot of 'mayfield' like comps-- youll either love him or hate him.
CHase young goes #1 and it isnt even close imo.
I looked at some of Wirfs tape and I wasnt overly impressed. He didnt have quick feet imo. How he tests athletically will be a huge factor.
You draft OTs to pass block.
eg.
Greg Robinson
Ereck Flowers
vs
Laremy Tunsil
Taylor Lewan
whats the difference?
robinson/flowers were huge titans known for run blocking and strength. Lewan and Stanley were elite athletes known for pass block
what you are in college is what you are in the pros usually.
Wirf doesnt do it for me.

robinson/flowers were huge titans known for run blocking and strength. Ereck FLowers had one of the lowest athletic testing scores for a first round pick ever (see the RAS author on this).
