I'm not feeling this one, but like the draft position. I'm waiting until bowl time to get a real feel for this draft. Not sure yet how solid the draft is going to be.

I think I'd like more size out of a 1st round WR. Who are the big WRs for us to watch who would be late 1st-3rd round talent?

This is the WRs taken in the first 3 rounds of the above mock, in the order they were taken. This order will change between now and the draft due to forty times and combine workouts. There are a couple guys I really want to see more of and a good number of them are currently in the 2nd round range.


Justin Blackmon* WR Oklahoma State 6' 1" 205
Alshon Jeffery* WR South Carolina 6' 3" 234
Michael Floyd WR Notre Dame 6' 3" 220
Ryan Broyles WR Oklahoma 5' 11" 178
Rueben Randle* WR LSU 6' 3" 201
Dwight Jones WR UNC 6' 4" 245
Jeff Fuller WR Texas A&M 6' 4" 215
Juron Criner WR Arizona 6' 4" 210
A.J. Jenkins WR Illinois 6' 1" 185
Kendall Wright WR Baylor 5' 11" 185
Marvin McNutt WR Iowa 6' 4" 215
Nick Toon WR Wisconsin 6' 3" 212
Jarius Wright WR Arkansas 5' 10" 180

Check out where the pick is, do you think the Kubiak haters will shut up?

31 Ryan Broyles WR Oklahoma 5' 11" 178
63 Derek Wolfe DT Cincinnati 6' 5" 298
94 William Vlachos OC Alabama 6' 1" 292
126 Duke Ihenacho S San Jose State 6' 1" 210
158 G.J. Kinne QB Tulsa 6' 2" 215
190 Andrew Sweat OLB Ohio State 6' 2" 238
221 Jacquies Smith DE Missouri 6' 4" 255

I don't like the 1st pick, I don't see the team taking a short WR with a bad knee in the 1st round. Other than that I could live with draft.


31 Rueben Randle* WR LSU 6' 3" 201
*39 Nate Potter OT Boise State 6' 6" 293
63 Derek Wolfe DT Cincinnati 6' 5" 298
*71 Ryan Tannehill QB Texas A&M 6' 4" 216
94 Tony Jerod-Eddie DT Texas A&M 6' 5" 300
126 Louis Nzegwu DE Wisconsin 6' 4" 250
159 James Wilson OG Florida 6' 3" 318
190 Donald Stephenson OT Oklahoma 6' 6" 309
221 Adrian Hamilton DE Prairie View A&M 6' 3" 255

In my mock we get a 2nd and 3rd round pick from Washington for Matt Leinart.

If Kubiak can navigate this disaster and make a deep playoff run I might back off a bit. Some goon's idea of the team's future draft status does not impress me at this point.

Broyles, though, does impress me. He's not the 6'3" you want but I can see him being a Steve Smith sort of NFL player.

I'd still rather draft a corner there or maybe a safety.

I'm not opposed to CB or S at the 31st pick:
Jayron Hosley* CB Virginia Tech 5' 11" 170
Chase Minnifield CB Virginia 6' 0" 185
Janoris Jenkins CB North Alabama 5' 11" 186
Cliff Harris* CB Oregon 5' 11" 160
Brandon Boykin CB Georgia 5' 10" 185

Those are the next 5 DBs in this mock, not another safety taken until the 3rd (not accounting for the 3 safeties taken before our pick in the 1st). Also want to point out that Brandon Harris has yet to see the field in our crowded defensive backfield. Doesn't mean we cannot upgrade the #2 CB that is on the roster now. But I do want to point out that Jackson has played well as of late.

26 Bacarri Rambo* S Georgia 6' 1" 208
58 Mike Brewster OC Ohio State 6' 5" 293
89 Mike Martin DT Michigan 6' 2" 299
121 Marquis Maze WR Alabama 5' 10" 179
153 G.J. Kinne QB Tulsa 6' 2" 215
185 Marcus McGraw ILB Houston 6' 0" 210
216 Matt Conrath DE Virginia 6' 7" 270


They have us taking a safety in the 1st round, I've been happy with Quin, so I don't get this one. But it's November...

I think last years Draft, along with the excellent FAs we picked up, indicate that we have really beefed up the defense. So I would like to see the emphasis this time be on the offense.
