If Nothing Changes Come Draft Day, Who Would You Draft

[SmootSmack]

Suppose we made absolutely no moves prior to draft day, no free-agent signings (other than maybe some camp bodies), and no trades for more draft picks this year.

If we assume the above, that leaves us with a 1st, 3th, 5th, and 6th round pick.

So with all that in mind, give me your mock draft as of today(this is who you would want the Skins to use their picks on)

I'll start (I wanted to get Connor Barwin in here, but just couldn't find a spot for him)

1st-OT: Best Available and that probably means Michael Oher at this point, but I'm becoming a big Eben Britton fan and I'd be tempted to take him

3rd-C: Antoine Caldwell (looking more unlikely he'll be around, but someone like Luigs could fall down there)

5th-DE/LB: Lawrence Sidbury (out of Richmond, could be a steal)

6th-um....some running back

[KLHJ2]

I have not finished my scouting yet so I will not be naming names.

1. OT

3. DT or DE (Best available of the 2 positions)

5. LB or OL (Best available of the 2 positions)

6. LB or OL or RB (Best available of the 3 positions and will not take same position as drafted in 5th)

[Dirtbag59]

1st Round - Michael Oher - T - Ole Miss
3rd Round -
1st choice - Johnathan Luigs - C - Arkansas
2nd choice - Herman Johnson - G - LSU
3rd choice - Antoine Caldwell - C - Alabama
5th Round - Vance Walker - DT - Georgia Tech (collapses the pocket, stops the run, and plays with a high motor. However he lacks size and instincts)
6th Round - Zach Follet - LB - Cal (Not sure if he'll last this long but hey last year we thought Erin Henderson was going to be a 2nd or 3rd round pick and right now Follet is graded as a fringe 5th round pick)

My Nightmare Draft

1st Round - Percy Harvin - RB/WR - Florida ("He was easily the best player on our board and when you draft for need you get in trouble")
2nd Round - Alphonso Smith - CB - Wake Forest ("Well we thought trading next years 2nd and 3rd along with Carlos Rogers, as well as a fifth rounder next year was a good idea because we knew that this guy was high on our board. Plus this year we're not going to make the character mistake we made with Thomas and Davis last year")
3rd Round - Darry Beckwith - ILB - LSU ("Well we saw how well our division rival Dallas did with Brady James and Beck was definitely the best player on our board so we went for it")
5th Round - Maurice Wells - RB - Ohio State ("We wanted a big play threat at RB and we felt like Maurice was it. I mean sure most scouts had him going undrafted but he stuck out on our board like a sore thumb.")
6th Round - Grahm Harrell - QB - Texas Tech (" Did you see how many yards he threw for last year? Pair him with Colt and our fanbase will be thrown into civil war over who are 2nd string QB should be. We're excited about what Jim can do with him.")

Follow up comments from Vinny:
"We tried to trade back up into the first to get Brian Cushing but we couldn't find anyone who wanted Santana Moss, Jon Jansen, Cornelius Griffin, Shawn Springs, Marcus Washington, and Carlos Rogers in exchange for a first round pick."

"We would have gone O-Line but no one really stood out on our board, besides this wasn't a good year for O-lineman."

"Hey at least I didn't take any recievers.....or did I?"

"Percy Harvin is going to be the next Reggie Bush."

"I'm really excited about what the other Well's brings to the table.

"I tried to trade back but for some reason the phone line went dead."

1st Alex Mack (he would change the OL woes overnight, yep a C on the 1st, just ask Jahvid Best how he got 1580 yards rushing))
3rd Zack Follett (the man is a playmaker)
5th DE
6th LB or DT (best available player)

If we don't draft the best tackle available with our 1st pick, I will be turning off the TV and not watching the remainder of the draft.

Sold! I'll see you there!

You ever go there on NFL Sundays? The Eagles fans in that place are so effing obnoxious (shocker).

Sounds like someone is a CAL Bears fan. I like Mack but he would be a HUGE reach at #13 considering he's projected as a fringe 1st rounder. Follett would also be a pretty big reach in the 3rd as he's projected as a 4th or 5th rounder.

Okay guys, don't fall in love with Hermann Johnson's 6'7" 382 size. You may not have seen the Senior bowl practice where he was thoroughly dominated by everyone he faced. But this is why he has plummeted from a possible 1st day pick to a probable 4th rounder. He looked very slow and was overpowered by late round talent at the senior bowl. If you like him watch the combine and see what the scouts say... Think George Muresan with shoulder pads..

Thought I'd heard that had served as a wake-up call to him and he's really been working hard the last month to improve his agility and speed

From what I saw and heard after the practice he was a disaster, he may be working hard now but he has a ways to go. He's VERY weak for a man his size. Guards are usually some of the strongest players on the team. My guess is he has trouble beating LBs in reps lifting 225 at the combine.
He's also very tall for a Guard which means he'll have trouble gaining leverage vs most tackles in this league. I would pass on him

Don't get me wrong. I'm not really a fan and don't want to draft him, just that I'd heard he's working hard to improve.

You been watching the CFB melts yet?
