The plot thickens... The letter from the dad alleging that Mixon pushed his daughter to the ground then hit her in High School was written to the lawyer of the girl he hit in the video after that incident. Who knows the legitimacy of the claim though, especially since he claims he went to the school and the school hid Mixon and brushed it all aside. I'm sorry, but if that happened to my daughter, the police would have been my first call, not complaining to the principal.
If found to be true, I'd actually have a hard time keeping him on my board, because that would show a pattern of behavior and not an isolated incident.
We'll see how it all pans out though..
People really want this guy to be a football player..the one incident was enough for me to want nothing to do with him...others...well the guys really talented though

This is not from the same mock, but one I ran today where it happened again, and while it's surely not realistic it does show what can happen with QB needy teams..

Who went 1-14, so that Solomon Thomas is still available? I'm having trouble with this. If anyone dropped, it would be Jonathan Allen, and that would mean there are serious questions about his medical.
Accepting your premise, the only two players that I'd be excited about at #15 wold be Thomas and Barnett, and I probably wouldn't trade back because I have them a tier higher than the rest on your list (I have Thomas in my top 5, Barnett in my top 10).

On NFL network last night they were talking about how the RB position maybe making a come back because the lack of talent at the QB position. Basically they were saying the elite QB's are the same as they've been forever and teams are more willing to look to a strong running back to try and offset the lack of great QB play.

I'd like to see another CB instead of DE in the fourth, but thats just nitpicking really...overall I like it.

That's right. We don't need the #1 defense. Assuming the offense can still score like last year, we need a defense that can hold teams to maybe one less score. Especially when we are playing teams with good defenses and we are struggling a little bit to score. We don't need a lights out - 15 points per game defense.
Don't all teams need a defense to hold teams to one less score?

Thomas is amazing,but in this scenario he is the value and you should be able to get some picks for him, and as long as your not going back more than 5 spots, your going to get 2 or 3 really good players for the price of one.
-
Myself, I think I'm going to be looking to trade back to 20th or so and grab some mo picks but I'm betting some are running to turn in the Solomon Thomas card.

Your on the clock and the board looks like this...what do you do?

TYUS BOWSER is a tricky one...depends on when the run on edge defenders happens but I'd rather be able to grab him in the third

I think we are ok to roll with Haeg this year at RG. He does enough well that he's earned the chance to play one position in my opinion. The biggest thing I got out of that was that we need Mewhort to be healthy to allow Kelly to help Heag out when he's getting bull rushed. Then hopefully next year we won't be in the good awful shape we are on D and can afford to invest in RG if needed.

They didn't tell us anything we didn't know. And I'm not a fan of any of those guys
I don't, Stribling isn't bad, I've often grabbed him in the 5th as a 2nd CB pick

I just ran a mock where I traded back with Tampa and it worked out very well:
Trades:
(19, 84, 237) from TAM for (15)
Picks:
Rd 1 Pk 19 - Forrest Lamp (G) Western Kentucky
Rd 2 Pk 46 - T.J. Watt (OLB 3/4) Wisconsin
Rd 3 Pk 80 - Adoree' Jackson (CB) Southern California
Rd 3 Pk 84 - George Kittle (TE) Iowa
Rd 4 Pk 122 - Samaje Perine (RB) Oklahoma
Rd 4 Pk 137 - Erik Magnuson (OT) Michigan
Rd 4 Pk 144 - Shaquill Griffin (CB) Central Florida
Rd 5 Pk 158 - Rayshawn Jenkins (FS) Miami (Fla.)
Rd 7 Pk 237 - DeAngelo Brown (NT) LouisvilleIf we get Watt and he got a sack in Huston, would they play the "Turn down for Watt" music? I've seriously been wondering about this...to much time in the off season

I don't think any of these address CB enough.

I can't stand Simms....so I'm happy

The Texans made a daring move to trade their multi-million dollar mistake in the hopes of wooing a franchise QB to their cause, only to go up in flames today as he announced retirement.
Their options now:
An erratic Jay Culter?
A teamless Colin Kaepernick?
Tom Savage and Brandon Weeden?
Or more interesting, what if they decide to grab Brock back after the Browns release him?
I'd probably just sign Cutler on a 2 or 3 yr deal, then look to draft a QB in the 2nd round and coach him up for a year or two...Cutler sucks and all but he's better than what they had last year and should still give them a chance to make the playoffs with that d.

I have not seen anything on Sutton? Whats the opinion on him?
-
Obi one Melwallifouilo will go in the first

Not liking this. . . He looks like a WR to me. I just can't see him holding up through a full season of running between the tackles.
I'm afraid he'd be limited in role to a 3rd down back or he would be moved to slot receiver or something. Not worth a first.
3rd down is a pretty important down, you convert those and usually your going to be doing pretty well...so saying he's a third down back to me means he's a pretty valuable guy.

Here's my DB's ranking:
1. Marshon Lattimore
2. Malik Hooker
3. Jamal Adams
4. (healthy) Sidney Jones
5. Gareon Conley
6. Budda Baker
7. Tre'Davious White
8. Marlon Humphrey
9. Cordrea Tankersley
10. Jabrill Peppers
I'd be ecstatic picking any of the top 3 at 15. Would have been happy with Jones before the injury and will be alright with Conley and Baker. For the rest I don't think the value is there at 15. Maybe trading down?
Where do you put that OBI one Mawifiuaalliaola guy?
-
After reading that, how would you feel about trading back and giving Obi Melifonwu a look for CB#2?
-
I think I would have went CB again instead of G, but other than that I really like it. Tim in the 3rd would be insane good!!!

I did this mock draft with www.draftwired2.com. Their board is a bit off with a few guys, but I felt overall it's a solid board.
Trade: Our 15 for HOU's 25, 57
Picks:
Rd 1 Pk 25 - Haason Reddick (ILB) Temple
Rd 2 Pk 46 - T.J. Watt (OLB 3/4) Wisconsin
Rd 2 Pk 57 - Quincy Wilson (CB) Florida
Rd 3 Pk 80 - Dorian Johnson (G) Pittsburgh
Rd 4 Pk 122 - Trey Hendrickson (OLB 3/4) Florida Atlantic
Rd 4 Pk 137 - Tedric Thompson (FS) Colorado
Rd 4 Pk 144 - Stevie Tu'kolovatu (NT) Southern Cal
Rd 5 Pk 158 - Jamaal Williams (RB) BYU
I'm generally not a big fan of trades in mocks, but I figured why not trade down 10 spots and still get my guy? I missed grabbing Hunt, but I'll take Williams as a consolation prize. Overall, this draft brings in quality players in positions of need, the top 4 potentially being day 1 starters.
I think I would drop the G and grab another CB (we need 2 starters) but otherwise I like it.
