Daniel Jeremiah Mock Draft 2.0 \ stacker news ~Stacker

pull down to refresh

I usually like Jeremiah's mocks. I don't like this at all.

Too many RBs in the first round for a deep RB draft. No WR until 19? 49ers drafting a CB at 11 when they have two young pro bowl caliber CBs locked up for the next 4 years?

Only thing I like about this is Carter goes first overall.

I don't like seeing "scheme fit" in the first round. They should be taking guys who are awesome, period, with first round picks. Scheme fit guys are available later.

Obviously, it's a plus if the guy is a scheme fit. That just shouldn't be the main argument.

Nothing wrong with drafting the top CB in the draft at 11 but not when you already have two very good young CBs. Sure you need more than 2 CBs, you could kick one in to play Nickel but it doesn't make sense to use a pick that high on what is a position of need but not desperate need. I would rather they take Tet McMillan at 11 than a CB.

I still don't like the idea of WR in the 1st round but it's better than CB.

Unless, they see All Pro potential, I agree. Most teams do use three CB's on a majority of snaps and nickel is a bit of a specialty. I could also see doing this pick, if one of the three profiles as an elite nickel corner.

A third round corner makes sense to me. I think safety might be a bigger need if they don't address in FA but safety isn't valued as highly as CB so they may still pick a CB before they pick a S.
