Killer Mock Draft on TDN

BigBlueWC : 4/5/2020 5:11 pm
I know no one cares, but I did a mock draft on TDN and wanted to share because I'm fired up.

Please note that I was able to package 4 and 255 to the Chargers for 6 and 71.

Picks
6. Jedrick Wills - OT Alabama
36. Patrick Queen - LB LSU
71. Jeremy Chinn - S Southern Illinois
99. Tyler Biadasz - C Wisconsin
110. Chase Claypool - WR Notre Dame
150. Devin Duvernay - WR Texas
183. Tanner Muse - S Clemson
218. Grayland Arnold - CB Baylor
238. Trey Adams - OT Washington
247. Darius Anderson - RB TCU

If DG and Judge can pull-off anything remotely close to this, sign me up!
Sign me up please

draft.
I would be very happy with that  
Jay on the Island : 4/5/2020 5:26 pm : link
If Trey Adams is still on the board in round 6 or 7 then he should be the pick. Injuries are a concern but that late it’s worth rolling the dice on a player that was discussed as a potential top 20 pick coming into this season.
Good work!

Probably the best haul I’ve seen so far
This looks like it's from first pick.com  
George from PA : 4/5/2020 5:36 pm : link
They have Claypool way down...but yes....love the positions and the players could resolve many issues

Claypool

Excellent value.

Is Queen the type of LB we need the most?

Dankbeerman : 4/5/2020 5:39 pm : link
but feel Chin and Queen is a little to repetative and not very complimentary pieces. Everybody loves the hybrid types these day but hard to get them both on the feild together.

And if you want a LB like Queen just draft simmons

Also Muse falls in that same role of player. But do like all 3 guys at the spots taken just not together

Can't get Simmons and Wills though. And doesn't Chinn play safety?
RE: RE: solid players  
BigBlueWC : 4/5/2020 5:42 pm : link
I'm Wills > Simmons all day

Wills + Queen is better than Simmons and a 2nd rate OT IMO

Yes. He has great speed, coverage ability, and instincts. Would be a great addition to the D. I doubt he falls to the 2nd round though.
While if they are hellbent on going OT I'd love a trade down, but

doesn't an early 3rd seem like way less than what teams normally get even without giving up a pick.

Yes, I would expect at least a 2nd in real life. But TDN wasn't having it.
if Biadasz is too light in the seat and.....  
MOOPS : 4/5/2020 5:55 pm : link
he's gonna get pushed back in the QB's face, why is he a value at 99 and not at 36? Either he's stout or he isn't.
Not a knock on your draft, just a statement of what passes for fact.
I like positions drafted  
Lines of Scrimmage : 4/5/2020 5:58 pm : link
and really like your first pick. I think they almost have to take a tackle and as long as they see him as a good starter and not BPA I can live with it. Otherwise they will be forced to sign another high priced FA next year to replace Solder as well as really reach in the draft (2021).

BigBlueWC : 4/5/2020 6:04 pm : link
I've run a ton of mocks. If they don't go OT in the first, they put themselves in a bind. Wills a total stud and he will be the pick IMO.
RE: if Biadasz is too light in the seat and.....  
BigBlueWC : 4/5/2020 6:05 pm : link
I'm not sure. I wouldn't take him in the early 2nd. Late 3rd, early 4th... I'm all for it.
I like the idea of getting a top OT and then Queen  
PatersonPlank : 4/5/2020 6:08 pm : link
I am very intrigued by him, and he may turn out to be just as good as Simmons. In the championship game he sure was great. I'm a little leery of Badass at C, he seems to be dropping. I wonder if there was another C we could have gotten in the 3rd?

Just Nick Harris and Muti

Chin is a box saftey/Nickel LB Another guy that can cover TEs Dont see a Defense with Chin Queen and Peppers on the feild at the same time.

People love Queen and they want him to be the type of cover guy Simmions is and he is not. And a 6'0" and 221 will be tough for him to be a 3 down player. He is virtually the same size as Peppers.
Claypool won't last until 110  
LakeGeorgeGiant : 4/5/2020 6:37 pm : link
He might be off the board by our second pick
RE: RE: RE: solid players  
BigBlueWC : 4/5/2020 6:47 pm : link
Queen is an inch taller and only 4 lbs lighter than Devin Bush
So you got a 3rd to trade out of #4 AND had to throw in a late rounder  
Gatorade Dunk : 4/5/2020 7:12 pm : link
First-Pick.com swung their pendulum too far in their update today, IMO.

That's a not insignificant difference in body type.

Appreciate your enthusiasm. In the future no need to qualify posts like this with “I know no one cares”.

Not true, many of us love mock drafts this time of year. Don’t let the curmudgeons get to you, that includes the younger ones too.
Wills and Badass is nice.  
Victor in CT : 4/6/2020 12:55 pm : link
ALOT of people like Wirfs in recent days. I'd have no prob with instead of Wills.
