This is Jeremiah's first mock draft of the season so I think it's worthy of a new topic, having in mind the connections he has in the league. We might glean some things about the way the league might be evaluating some players.

 

Seems like he didn't do trades so keep that in mind. He gives the Colts Will Levis at 4:

Pick 4 Indianapolis Colts

Will Levis, QB

School: Kentucky

Year: Senior (RS)

 

The tape for Levis is a roller-coaster ride. The strong-armed passer showed flashes of brilliance and the ability to avoid pressure and create; he also showed a penchant for turning the ball over (23 picks over his last two seasons). Colts GM Chris Ballard has always valued traits and upside. This pick just feels like a good gamble for Indianapolis. 

 

 

Here are some notables in his mock:

- The Bears go Jalen Carter with the no. 1 pick

- Devon Witherspoon is first CB drafted at 6. PFF has an insane stat for him that's quite unbelieveable - he gave up a grand total of 1 yard in press coverage this year. ONE! Total! Not per target. Not per game! ONE TOTAL. The whole year! 

- Peter Skoronski OT1 at 7

- Tyree Wilson(5) and Lukas Van Ness(8) go before Myles Murphy at 10. This is somewhat interesting. I think a lot of the mocks I've seen have Murphy as the 5th player after the top 2 QBs and Carter and Will Anderson. 

- Joey Porter Jr CB2 - at 12 to Texans

- O'Cyrus Torrence goes 17. Pretty high for interior Lineman. First IOL in the draft

- Trenton Simpson  goes 18 - 1st ILB in the draft 

- Emmanuel Forbes 19 - I think this is the highest I've seen him go. 

- Dalton Kincaid - TE1! Goes no. 21 to Chargers. This is interesting. Goes ahead of Michael Mayer. 

- Anthony RIchardson goes 22 to the Ravens! His idea is if negotiations on new contract stall, they can franchise tag Lamar and bring in Richardson to develop for the future. 

- Tyrique Stevenson goes in R1. Highest I've seen him. 

- Only 2 WRs in R1 - Jordan Addison(25) and Jaxon Smith-Njigba (31). No Quentin Johnston.

- Bryan Bresee - no.30 - the lowest I've seen him anywhere. 

- 6 CBs in R1. 7 if you count Branch as CB. Very strong CB class

He has Quenton Johnston falling out of the first round which would be music to my ears. I’d trade up in the 2nd round with the Bears to get him. There’s your real X receiver for years to come.

I agree on Johnston,would be a steal in the 2nd.

This would be awesome. Get our QB at 4 and then a stud WR in the 2nd. He would be a steal and phenomenal weapon for a young QB.

Good point, I just thought that Stroud was the consensus top pick of the three…

Nooo... if there is a consensus, it's Young... but even he's not exactly consensus. From what I'm seeing it seems to be something like... 70% Young, 10-20% Stroud, 10-20% Levis... 1-2% Richardson.

      AD Mitchell Not Signed

      By NewColtsFan · Posted

      Welcome back.   After taking a month off, you’ve returned.   I’m not sure where to start, so let’s try the night the Colts drafted Mitchell.  Late that night, you and another high profile Ballard-Hater had this conversation:  That you didn’t like CBs defense of Mitchell.  His big speech.  Why?  Because you guys agreed that “Ballard didn’t know enough about Mitchell to know if he was a good guy or not.”   Your words.     When my chin came off the floor and my eyes back in my head I thought this:   Why would you OR the fans of any team ever think that what a GM shares on draft night is all he knows?   Because it isn’t.  A GM is sharing all that he wants to share, nothing more.  But what he doesn’t share is much, much more than what he does share.  Think an iceberg;  10 percent above water,  90 percent below.   A GM knows far more than he ever shares.    And now you make this argument….   If Mitchell doesn’t work out, Ballard has left himself open to criticism.   Two words:  who cares?   A GM can’t do his job well if he’s afraid of criticism.  Do you think the Steelers care that George Pickens is totally crazy?   No.  They care he makes big plays for Pittsburgh and catches first downs and touchdowns.  Mike Tomlin deals with the crazy part in private.   A GM has to have thick skin.  Ballard clearly does.   And he doesn’t care what others think of him.  Nor should he.     So far Mitchell seems to enjoy Indy.   I think the odds are good Ballard and Steichen can handle whatever baggage the kid brings.

      Unbelievable.  Tell me, what’s the criteria for being a spoiled brat?     Because all the other rookie WR’s have clauses in their contracts too.   The Colts do a great job of signing players.  This signing doesn’t seem to bother the Colts, yet it bothers you enough to call Mitchell a spoiled brat.  Over nothing much out of the ordinary.  Thats why players have agents.  It’s why the Colts have Mike Bluem.     You remain your own worst enemy.     Goodness gracious.

      When the Colts drafted Goncalves they said they think he could play 4 positions at the NFL level.   All but Left Tackle.  So he is not a replacement for Raimann.   odds are Goncalves will play RG and some RT.    I’m a Cosell fan.  He’s forgotten more about football than anyone here knows.  But his opinion on Raimann is beyond head scratching.    Raimann scored in the low to mid 70’s his rookie year.  Then scored in the low 80’s last year.   I don’t know what he thinks of PFF scores,  but there is more to this opinion than meets the eye.  Something doesn’t add up at all.

      Daniel Scott (S from last year's draft) out for the year again

      By ProblChld32 · Posted

      I think his professional career is very slim. Not sure if you remember Vick Ballard but he had similar injuries and he was pretty much done with football after. Not to say that Scott can’t come back it’s completely possible but to rehab and have to get over the mental aspect of things it’s gonna be hard.

      Not a big deal at this time, but I hope AR is 100% by the time he takes contact in a real game. Don't want this to be a regular occurrence, especially when you combine his reckless playing style with the injury. I hope he can play all year. Last thing we need is him getting nagging injuries every game.
