46 William Moore had an excellent pro day

Moore was timed in the low 4.4 range in the 40-yard dash and clocked 4.39 on at least one reading, several people confirmed. If that time was consistent among the scouts Moore might have re-established himself as one of the two or three best safeties available. Also, Moore hit 36 ½ inches on the vertical jump.

Moore, down to 221 pounds and finally running on a healthy set of wheels, said he’s gotten positive feedback from several teams and had dinner with New Orleans Saints officials Wednesday night. “They’re showing great interest. Miami, too,” Moore said. “All the teams that are in need of DBs I think I’m up there as one of their top choices.”

77 Brown, seems to be the size speed combo the team is looking for in a veteran back , would be a nice 1B.

108 McGrath 6-3 225 with room to grow.

144 Shipley 6-1 OC are rare, but he is a battler.

Your last two are like most 6-7 round picks, role the dice and hope. (Just like mine).

FYI, One of the reason I like RB, LB, WR types in the 6th and 7th round is because they can offer special teams play to the resume, OL and DT can add special teams but they are limited in their impact.

I went with a DT because they can impact as a rotational player on the DL. Miller is a bit of a run plugger. However, looking at his Combine numbers, he's not a complete slug.

Time for a new mock 4.15

I've been thinking, and I like a trade down Ole Miss did on TT.com, we trade #15 and #112, we get #22 and #54.

22 Connor Barwin, DE/OLB, Cincinnati
46 Alphonso Smith, CB, Wake Forest
54 William Moore, SS, Missouri
77 Andy Levitre, G, Oregon State
122 Kory Sheets, RB, Purdue
152 Kaluka Maiava, OLB, USC
188 Khalif Mitchell, NT, East Carolina
223 Chris Ogbonnaya, RB/FB, Texas


And what if we do not trade down, only one reason I do not trade down

15 BJ Raji NT Boston College
46 William Moore, SS, Missouri
77 Andy Levitre, G, Oregon State
112 Gregory Toler, CB , St.Paul Virginia
122 Kory Sheets, RB, Purdue
152 Kaluka Maiava, OLB, USC
188 Johnny Knox WR Abilene Christian
223 Blake Schlueter OC TCU

With a trade down...
22 LB Clay Matthews USC
46 S William Moore Missouri
54 OC Eric Wood Louisville
77 DE Cody Brown Connecticut
122 CB Asher Allen Georgia
152 S Chris Clemons Clemson
188 DT Roy Miller Texas
223 RB Javarris Williams Tenn State

No trade down...
15 DE Everette Brown Florida St.
46 RB Shonn Greene Iowa
77 S Chip Vaughn Wake Forest
112 CB Keenan Lewis Oregon St
122 LB Gerald McGrath Southern Miss
152 S Chris Clemons Clemson
188 TE John Phillips Virginia
223 DT Terrence Knighton Temple


Gee, I think I like the No Trade down better. Of course that is depending upon a lot of things happening, especially in the 1st, 4th, and 5th rounds.

I'm thinking about another option here where we trade #77, #112, and #152 to move up for RB Andre Brown.

15. DE Everette Brown
46. C Eric Wood
59. RB Andre Brown
122. S Chris Clemons
188. TE John Phillips
223. CB Don Carey

I'll need UDFAs like LB Robert Francois, WR/KR Jason Cherry, QB Rudy Carpenter, and DT Marlon Favorite to complete my roster.

Doing a little tinkering....

15. DE Everette Brown Florida St.
46. RB Andre Brown NC State
77. S Chip Vaughn Wake Forest
112. CB Asher Allen Georgia
122. LB Gerald McGrath Southern Miss
152. S Chris Clemons Clemson
188. TE John Phillips Virginia
223. DT Terrence Knighton Temple

Yeah, I think I could be quite happy with this draft.
