Final mock trade included

[akcolt]

We trade Washington our 90 and 203  for picks 102 142 217.

We end up with

 

59 Gabe Jackson OG zone teams aren't going to like him fingers crossed he is there  will start day one up grade O Line immediately from where I sit that seems to be our biggest problem. Grigs can put Thomas at C or Holmes whoever he wants.

 

102 Carun Reid DT/NG Princeton  pass rush from the inside please and thank you love this kid

 

142 Dontae Johnson S/CB NCST can play all over the back end outside. in the slot. and a lot of safety

 

166 Terrance Mitchell CB Oregon quietly a good corner needs some fine tuning

 

178 Jonathan Dowling S WKU has the potential to be a star 18 turnovers in 2yrs game changer.

 

217 Tyler Starr OLB South Dakota I like him can cover and get to the qb would be a gift here

 

232 Solomon Patton KR/WR if he sticks probably the end of Whalen but everyone wanted speed here it is. 4.31 40

 

I wanted to work Russel Bodine in somewhere he is just do all over the place wasn't sure where. I like him C/G

[CS Colts Fan]

Nice Job ak... I too want and Like Bodine, but we can always grab an UDFA C like Zac Kerin from Toledo  then hope that Grigs and Companyare right with Holmes...

 

getting gabe fixing a Huge issue on the Oline and I love the other picks too... DJ is one of my sleeper picks...   getting Reid will help the Dline and Pass Rush  Dowling is going to be a good box end safety... Starr a little hidden jewel... Patton great find I don;t know anything about him, but will have to check him out...

 

This would be a Great Draft for the Colts !!

To get Bodine I believe our best bet is to trade down from 90 to 105 (Jax) in my opinion......They have 2 picks in the 4th round...I think potentially we could pick up both of Jax's 4th round picks doing that. Our pick (90) is worth 140 points......to get close to equal value from Jax we would ask for there 105 pick (84 points)......and there 2nd 4th round pick (114)....which is worth 66 points....84+66=150.....or more likely in my opinion we get Pick 105 (again 84 points) + Jax's 144 pick (34 points) + Jax's 150 pick (5th round) 149.4 points

 

 

or more likely in my opinion we get Pick 105 (again 84 points) + Jax's 144 pick (34 points) + Jax's 150 pick (5th round) 149.4 points........So my first scen

 

So in my first scenario we would have

 

2(59).

4(105).

4(114)

5(166).

6(203).

7(232).

Patton's pro day breakdown he was a combine snub

 

Best Moment: 40-yard dash. Though he performed very well on the field, there wasn't a scout in attendance who wasn't impressed when clocking Patton on the hoof.
Worst Moment: Tripping on his first 40-yard dash attempt. Scouts are impatient people. Those things stay with them, but he recovered nicely.
40 time: 4.37
Projected Round: 6^th

Analysis: Patton had a lot to prove after not being invited to the NFL Combine, but when asked about it he said it just gave him more time to work and impress at Pro Day — and he did just that. To start, Patton ran a blazing 4.37 on his first 40-yard dash attempt and followed it up with a 4.39 on his second (barefoot on the second attempt). Patton also shined on the field; he showed good explosiveness with body control to start and stop.

His day ended after everyone else's, as three scouts from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers stayed late to run Patton through kick and punt return drills. Patton is flying under the radar right now, but if scouts came into the day with an open mind, he showed he deserves a late pick.The 5-foot-6 athlete ran an unofficial best of 4.31 in the 40-yard dash, according to ESPN.com. He also benched 225 pounds 16 times, per The Florida Times Union."There's no question he's going to find a role," Muschamp said. "(He's) a guy that can play in the slot and has return skill, big-time kickoff return and great special-teams guy -- one of the better kickoff cover guys I've been around."

A little more on Florida pro day regarding DB's would love to stay away from all of them.

 

Additionally, and as a note on the entire scouting process, I overheard a conversation between a scout and defensive coordinator D.J. Durkin, one that probably explains some of the atmosphere on a day like this. Durkin asked what the scout thought of the defensive backs (his group to grade). The scout answered: "Watkins is my man. I like him a lot. I really think he did well. I'll have to come back and see him again."

But when asked of Purifoy and Roberson, he had this to say:

"I don't understand. Stay in school; get bigger, get better. These kids don't realize what it's like out there. They sit here and read these mock drafts and articles with their names high up and it's bull%. They're lying to these kids. I see their (Roberson and Purifoy's) names in the second round and that's a lie.

We have to learn how to communicate with these kids, man. It's a shame some of the advice they're getting. They don't have to leave right away. The best way to be successful is to be as good as you can be before coming out. I'm serious."

I like the seniors too especially in later rounds I believe Mitchell was the only Junior on my board

[OffensivelyPC]

I'm a fan of Caraun Reid too, I just think that we'd be better off addressing a different position at that early stage of the draft.  I could live with Gabe, but not the direction I'd go.  We all have our differences in opinion as to what we would do with our first two picks, and  I really do like the rest of your picks.  Many of htem I considered in my mock as well.

[Burls' Kid's]

You know me. I love the jackson/dowling picks! The others are okay, but i would've worked in zach moore or jaylen watkins. I'm also big on matt patchan (T) from boston college. I just have a good feeling about him.
