Rams--Wentz
Browns--Goff
Chargers--Ramsey
Cowboys--Jack
Ravens--Tunsil
Jags--Buckner

(I'll get to more later)

Tunsil just doesn't make much sense for SD/Dal/Jax. SD has 2 $ OT's. Jax does too (despite being an upgrade over both, you get paid you're playing in the NFL) and I'd be shocked if Dal did. Balt trades up and sends a fourth to prevent someone else from sniping them.

Also a hearty LOL to whoever drafts Prescott and Hackenberg especially with Boykin still on the damn board.

I don't believe the reports that say goff/wentz graded higher than mariota/winston. Can't think of a single one on twitter who did this.

is it too obvious the myles jack injury still bad leak today was a team who wants him picking after they expect him to go?

The potential upside for Jack more than makes up for taking a chance on him in the top 10, even if you don't think he's currently healed from a meniscus tear.

The dude is a freaking stud...on both sides of the ball.

I'm interested in either jack or tunsil at 7 for the 9ers. i think tunsil might drop to there because of da rams trade and he doesnt make sense to SD like it was already said. they'll have their pick of best defensive player available and there are quite a few good ones.

Jack with an injury makes it even more likely that Trent drafts him ldo.

Ah, good, I should probably stop flooding the offseason thread with draft ****

Here's the four-round mock I wrote up last night/this afternoon

https://zonereads.wordpress.com/2016...nd-mock-draft/

Part based on expectations in the early going (I don't have Goff and Wentz 1 and 2 but I think they're going there so it's dumb to pretend otherwise), part based on need / my big board / some guessing in the later rounds

Carl Nassib is gonna be a hell of a good player. Getting him in the 4th round is a steal.

I watched some of Myles Jack and I don't get it how he's the best defensive player in the draft.

His athleticism is through the roof. He's stout at the point of impact and moves like a guy 30 pounds lighter when in coverage. So he clearly has a very high ceiling. But to give a linebacker top 5 money because he's good in pass coverage? In terms of pass coverage, athleticism and size, he compares really well to Patrick Willis. But Willis got in the backfield more often and was more active in pass rushing than Jack. Plus, Willis wasn't dealing with a knee injury around draft time.

IMO, Willis was the better LB in college and didn't get picked top 5. I don't think Jack should either.

Tyrone Holmes is gonna be the steal of the draft. If you want to learn more about him and also hear more about Force Players (and the importance of athleticism along the defensive line), watch this:

Jalen Ramsey is the best defensive player in the draft, but I think bolded answers your question. Guys with superlative athleticism are always prized by the NFL.

With the change in the rookie pay scale, I don't think "top 5 money" is really a thing to be concerned about anymore.

I'm confused about Ragland. I keep reading how he's awesome and then all of a sudden he's the devil and will harm whatever franchise he goes to.

Which is it?
