Mock Draft with Two on Offense and Four on Defense

Gene Filipski : 4/13/2021 11:41 pm
In making my selections, I relied on Sy, Gil Brandt, Dane Brugler and, for the last pick, myself.

1st: Jayson Oweh Penn State Edge
6' 4 3/4" 257 lbs 4.37 in 40 1.59 in 10 yards.
In listing the 5 best Edge players, Brandt discussed him first. Good enough for me.

2d: Nico Collins Michigan WR
6' 4" 215 lbs. 4.45 in 40 1.55 in 10.
Big, fast receiver.

3d: Stone Forsythe Florida OT
6' 8' 307 lbs. 5.13 in 40 1.82 in 10.
Plays mostly LT but has played RT. Let Peart, Solder and him battle for RT. Brugler had him listed in 3d round.

4th: Bobby Brown Texas A & M DT
6' 4" 321 lbs. 5.04 in 40 1.68 in 10
Taken here on Sy's advice.

6th: Janarius Robinson Florida State Edge
6' 4 1/2" 266 lbs. 4.69 in 40 1.64 in 10
Taken here on Sy's advice.

6th: Israel Mukuamu South Carolina CB
6' 4" 212lbs. Did not run because of pulled hamstring.
Played CB, Slot, Free Safety and in the Box.
Seems he has the versatility that Judge likes.



Lot for nothing

But I literally had just finished another pfn sim draft when I clicked on your post. In that draft I had picked Owen inthe 2nd and Collins in the third. Great minds?
Depending on which site you believe:

Mukuamu could go Day 2. (I agree that he looks like a great fit with the Giants, and PFN has him ranked very low, but other sites disagree.)

Collins could go as early as round 2 or as late as round 5. I think 3rd or 4th is more likely than 2nd — but who knows in this crazy year. I like Collins but I think he's a developmental guy and the Giants will want a 2nd-round receiver to be playing as a rookie. I think Collins will need a "redshirt" year, especially after opting out for 2020. I'd be happy for the Giants to take him but he wouldn't be my choice in the 2nd.

There's not a lot of enthusiasm for a running back in these bbi mock

They can get a functional RB as UDFA for competition. But they do need bodies.

In my mind you've nailed it. Of course it's not going to happen, but I think, injuries notwithstanding , you've picked the two players in the draft with the highest upside. And again, injuries notwithstanding, I think both those guys could make the Hall of Fame, that's how hi the upside. Problem is those darn on injuries and high potential to be injured. The flip side is, without that factor these guys would go 1 and 2 in the draft.
I still love mine that came out of the pfn sim

with a couple minor trades. Boost the defense, get a unicorn in the first round (unlikely in real life), and get a stud RB. Still get your edge and OG.

With a couple minor trades, I got an extra pick

#11 Kyle Pitts TE Florida
#42 Levi Onwuzurike DT Washington
#77 Javonte Williams RB North Carolina
# 136 Daelin Hayes EDGE Notre Dame
#144 Aaron Banks OG Notre Dame
#196 Frank Darby WR Arizona State
#201 Kary Vincent Jr. CB LSU
