So if Bill O'Brien ends up in Houston when do you think the Mallett to Texans rumors start. Day 1?

Oh god, I see Mallett going to Clevaland more than Houston to be honest

So were winning the SB Fine with me. I don't know anything about the players, but i like the priorities. Although i would put the D lineman first, But OC is just as much of a priority in my opinion.

Not impressed with Ryan Wendell this season whatsoever. Besides, Ryan Wendell will be an unrestricted free agent.

Travis Swanson is the best center prospect since the Pouncey brothers. Time to start rebuilding the offensive line at the center position in the 2014 NFL Draft and at the offensive guard position in the 2015 NFL Draft.

 

[manxman2601]

Matt Miller at BR has done a full 7 round mock. His Patriot picks, whilst not necessarily the direction I'd go are pretty damn good all the same:

Round One

The Pick: WR Allen Robinson, Penn State

All season, we've heard how great Tom Brady is considering the little talent around him at wide receiver. The New England Patriots must fix that as Brady nears the end of his brilliant career. The Super Bowl window is closing, and to capitalize on it, Bill Belichick must find Brady a go-to outside receiver.

To find that guy, Belichick can call up his old assistant Bill O'Brien at Penn State. In that offense, they have Allen Robinson, a 6'3" wide receiver with the speed to break open the field and the size to stretch defenses vertically. Robinson in an offense with Brady's talents would flourish. On the flip side, give Brady an athlete like this who is already familiar with New England-style route concepts and good things will happen.

Rnd Two

Dominique Easley, DT, Florida


Rnd Three


Travis Swanson, OL, Arkansas


Rnd Four


Yawin Smallwood, LB, UConn


Rnd Six


Rob Blanchflower, TE, UMass



Rnd Six


Bene Benwikere, CB, San Jose State


Rnd Seven


Michael Campanaro, WR, Wake Forest.

Certainly not perfect (two more WRs?), but the names are certainly good ones and there's a lot of upside to this mock. I'd be thrilled personally.

To me at least, borderline perfect mock. Can you do better

Pretty interesting, I don't think a DT is worth a 1 but if it is I'm alright with Hageman, rather have Nix, like Swanson and Najvar but that's it for myself

Nice funny one tryed it and got this:

29 DE STEPHON TUITT NOTRE DAME
62 WR BRANDON COLEMAN RUTGERS
93 C WESTON RICHBURG COLORADO STATE
126 QB JIMMY GAROPPOLO EASTERN ILLINOIS
183 CB STANLEY JEAN- BAPTISTE NEBRASKA
190 OG SPENCER LONG NEBRASKA
221 TE COLT LYERLA OREGON

Swap Lyerla with Trey Millard and we've got a deal!

 

[Snake Eyes]

Swap Lyerla with Trey Millard and we've got a deal!

Which one do we have a better chance of signed undrafted?

 

[Wilfork#75]

Which one do we have a better chance of signed undrafted?

I don't see anyone using a pick on Lyerla at this stage, someone might take a chance on Millard even after his injury. I have no interest in Lyerla either way, simply not worth the headache for a guy with such little production and all that baggage. Particularly after the Hernandez situation.

Swap Rogers for Fiedorowisc and I might be on board with this mock.

Would also take Millard but think getting him in FA is easyer then Lyerla do to Chip Kelly... Why i took him and not Millard. Norwell from OSU i would love to get also as swing OT/G and John Urschel as a Center prospect. He would instantly become the brightest guy on the team, he should be able to handle X's and O's better then anyone

But thats for another conversation

Made a fast for fun with BoB in mind:

1: Clowney DE 2: ASJ TE 3: Christian Jones ILB 4: Daquan JonesNT 5: Garoppolo QB 6: Aaron Lynch DE 7: Stanley Jean CB

Let that sink a sec and imagine a DL on short and long term

 

[manxman2601]

Swap Rogers for Fiedorowisc and I might be on board with this mock.

Rodgers is the Hernandez type flex TE though whereas Fiedorowicz is more Jake Ballard v2 - and I think we need a flex TE and after Ebron and Amaro there's not much speed and athleticism from the TE spot aside from Rodgers aside from Gator Hoskins.

I thought ASJ in the 2nd would make a lot of sense for BOB too.

Precise route-runner with tremendous hands ... Appears to glide across the field ... Not afraid to take a hit ... Good with the ball after a catch as well ... Doubles as a punt returner and kickoff returner for the Tigers
