Ok so everyone has been throwing their own little mock draft ideas out there, as well as their views on next years roster. So I thought I would give it a shot. First off, I am basing my mock draft on player ratings from cbs sports prospect rating list. Also want to give a ton of credit to Mark and Voyageur, because a ton the stuff I'm putting in this post is coming from them.
Where we sit right now, we are looking at the 2nd or 3rd pick. Since I made this up before Sunday, I am going to go with us at #4, and use the trade Mark suggested in his last post, that has us trading the #4 pick to the Browns for their 1st, 2nd, and 5th.
1:10:10 - Jonathan Martin LT Stanford
2:4:36 - Chase Minnifield CB Virginia
2:10:42 - Alameda Ta'amu DT Washington
3:4:68 - Audie Cole ILB NC State
Comp - Senio Kelemete OG Washington
4:4:100 - Aaron Henry FS Wisconsin
5:4:132 - Jarius Wright WR Arkansas
5:10:138 - Trumaine Johnson CB Montana
6:10:170 - Jeff Demps HB Florida
7:4:196 - Jeff Allen OL Illinois
7:20:212 - Matt Daniels SS Duke
7:25:217 - Derek Moye WR Penn St

Roster
QB - Ponder / Henne / Webb
HB - Peterson / Gerhart / Demps
FB - Kleinsasser
WR - Garcon / Harvin / Jenkins / Wright / Aromashodu
TE - Rudolph / Carlson / Reisner
LT - Martin / Love
LG - Hutchinson / Kelemete

Practice Squad

Now, when I look at that roster, I see our needs going into the next draft as:
1 - WR
2 - S
3 - OG/RT (Replacement for Hutch or Loadholt. Will play itself out)
4 - OLB
5 - CB
6 - TE
7 - FB
Not an expert of any kind, so I have no clue how the numbers work and if this is possible, but thats what makes all this fun. So what do you guys think?
