VFiC and danlhart87 3 Round Mock Thread

[VikingsFanInChennai]

I predict Chargers would sign Cam Newton once they're able to complete physicals. With Austin Ekeler signed in for passing game and as spell back, they pick the top RB to minimize workload for Cam, and use the QB's elite rushing only in the red zone and not between 20s. That way, Cam could be great again.

 

37th overall draft pick, Los Angeles Chargers select

 

DeAndre Swift, RB, Georgia

[danlhart87]

Carolina Panthers got the jack of all trades in Simmons round 1 and now turn their attention to the offense.

 

Panthers select Ezra Cleveland OT 

[VikingsFanInChennai]

Dolphins got great QB-WR-OT combo in round 1, what a haul! Now, it's Defense' turn. This edge rusher is said to be designed for New England style of stacking the offensive line back into the QB and finish off the run. Room for consistency and growth here, but he's already capable of pass rushing and defending run.

 

39th overall draft pick, Miami Dolphins select

 

AJ Epenesa, EDGE, Iowa

[VikingsFanInChennai]

Let me know if you need to pause, we can continue tomorrow if you like

[danlhart87]

The Texans need to replace Hopkins and they do it here with Laviska Shenault 

[VikingsFanInChennai]

Browns tried to trade for Anthony Harris of Vikings, but it didn't go through. This selection will only make Denzel Ward much better.

 

41st overall draft pick, Cleveland Browns select 

 

Grant Delpit, Safety, LSU

 

There you go, 4 picks for the purple and gold 

[danlhart87]

Jaguars get more secondary help with Antoine Winfield 

[VikingsFanInChennai]

Bears like to draft top interior offensive linemen with versatility to play Center and Guard, so

 

Chicago Bears select with the 43rd overall draft pick,

 

Lloyd Cushenberry, C\G, LSU

 

I really didn't choose one particular college to draft, but it happens 

[danlhart87]

Chris Ballard came into the Colts organization chirping the importance of winning in the  trenches.

 

He improved the OL with the additions of Nelson and Smith. 

 

Now after the Buckner trade he adds an even better option on the DL.

 

With the 44th pick in the NFL Draft the Indianapolis Colts select Jordan Elliott DT.

 

Clearly the best option is CB but a dominant DL and quality depth and rotation is key to winning in the NFL.

 

[danlhart87]

I'm done for the night but will continue later today 

[VikingsFanInChennai]

Sure, good night. Thanks

[VikingsFanInChennai]

Bucs couldn't sign edge rushers Carl Nassib and Sam Acho, but having franchise tagged Shaq Barrett would help ease this prospect early in his career, who has elite attributes to be a first round talent but injuries have hindered his development and college football career to an extent. 

 

45th overall draft pick, Tampa Bay Buccaneers select

 

Terrell Lewis, OLB, Alabama

[danlhart87]

Broncos take Michael Pittman Jr 

[danlhart87]

Falcons up @VikingsFanInChennai

[VikingsFanInChennai]

Sorry I had slept through the night, give me few minutes

[VikingsFanInChennai]

Falcons got Dante Fowler Jr in the Free Agency, now they get an elite talent for the interior defensive line. Having got CJ Henderson, CB in first round, it's a serious infusion of top quality talent for Dan Quinn to turn their defense around for Matt Ryan.

 

Falcons select with the 47th overall draft pick,

 

Ross Blacklock, DT, TCU

[danlhart87]

Jets get Darnold even more protection with Netane Muti OG

[VikingsFanInChennai]

Steelers released Javon Hargrave, they need to keep their defensive line their strength. Justin is versatile to play any interior position, and they can use him in different ways for the situations.

 

49th pick, Pittsburgh Steelers select

 

Justin Madubuike, DT, Texas A&M

[danlhart87]

Bears got Foles but there's no telling how long he sticks around and Trubisky is done so the Bears start grooming the future.

 

With the 50th pick in the NFL Draft the Chicago Bears take Jalen Hurts QB.

[VikingsFanInChennai]

Cowboys have a borderline first round talent fall into their laps to replace Robert Quinn.

 

51st pick, Dallas Cowboys select

 

Yetur Gross-Matos, EDGE, Penn State

[danlhart87]

Rams take Isaiah Wilson OT 

[VikingsFanInChennai]

Eagles took a top LB earlier, still get a good WR. this draft is great at the top.

 

53rd pick, Philadelphia Eagles select

 

Jalen Reagor, WR, TCU

[danlhart87]

Bills take Zack Moss 

[VikingsFanInChennai]

Ravens take an outside linebacker who has elite burst but needs to add more strength, perfect prospect to mould as they like.

 

55th pick, Baltimore Ravens select

 

Julian Okwara, EDGE, Notre Dame

[danlhart87]

Dolphins take OG/OT Robert Hunt 

[VikingsFanInChennai]

Houston Texans luck into top WR and RB in this draft, DeShawn Watson is safe for now.

 

57th pick, Houston Texans select

 

JK Dobbins, RB, Ohio State

 

There was a LSU prospect as well at the position, there I didn't take 

[danlhart87]

The Minnesota Vikings need to find Diggs replacement and they do that with the hometown kid Tyler Johnson WR Minnesota.

 

@NFLfan 

[VikingsFanInChennai]

Russell Wilson needed a great offensive line for all his career but just now it's all starting to come together. They got tackles Brandon Shell and Cedric Ogbuehi in Free Agency, now they get a top class Center to fix it all for once. Scouts rave about his technique, IQ, leadership, and scheme versatility, I wonder why he's not rated close to first round.

 

59th pick, Seattle Seahawks select

 

Matt Hennessy, C, Temple

[danlhart87]

Ravens take Clyde Edwards Helaire RB LSU

 

Can't get em all 

[VikingsFanInChennai]

Titans let a lot of their CB group leave, they get a scheme versatile talent that Mike Vrabel would like.

 

61st pick, Tennessee Titans select

 

AJ Terell, Cornerback, Clemson

[VikingsFanInChennai]

@NFLfan 

Didn't realize he was born and brought up in Minneapolis.. that's Minnesota all his career and life, just few zip code changes 

 

I guess Vikings fans already would say he's sick of Minnesota like Diggs.., right @NFLfan? 

[VikingsFanInChennai]

I will be away for half an hour, if you're done for the day, let's continue tomorrow. I will make the pick once I come back

[danlhart87]

Packers take Damien Lewis OG

[VikingsFanInChennai]

Chiefs need to get better in secondary, they take a fiesty, fierce Cornerback just as they would like, who can make their run defense much better around the LOS

 

63rd pick, Kansas City Chiefs select

 

Jaylen Johnson, Cornerback, Utah

[danlhart87]

Seattle takes Kyle Dugger

@NFLfan 

 

Vikings fans living in Minnesota love that pick.

[VikingsFanInChennai]

For long, LB Nick Vigil was one of the lone bright spots in the defensive front for Bengals. It looks like he's not returning and he gets replaced here by a versatile rusher who has positional flexibility to play outside and in the interior.

 

65th pick, Cincinnati Bengals select

 

Joshua Uche, EDGE, Michigan

[danlhart87]

Redskins take Cameron Dantzler 

[VikingsFanInChennai]

Sorry Dan, I will not be able to be online today. Let's continue tomorrow.
