NYniner85 pre-combine mock 2017

So we got the staff figured out now, moving to a 4-3 and the WCO.....a lot of changes that's for sure (in a good way)

First, QB there's a ton of options we can go with and I expect us to look at all of them...

• We should look at Jimmy G, Kyle was a fan coming out of the draft and he would be a great fit for us. There are some very faint dots to connect with Adam Peters working in NE, Lynch playing for Bill at the end of his career, Jimmy G's agent and Mike/Kyle has a long relationship with him... BUT I think end of the day we get priced out.
• Draft, is there a QB worth taking at 2? That's up to Kyle/Lynch to figure out, I'm starting to lean towards no.
• Bridge QB... this is a likely outcome and I can see someone like Hoyer/Cutler coming in.

BUT I think Kirk Cousins is Kyle's QB and in this mock he's gonna try to pry him from Washington I'm looking at giving them our 34th overall pick and a 2nd next yr. Washington is gonna lose him and I'd think they'd want something more than a comp in 2019 AND I don't see the point in paying him $24 million for a one yr rental.

CUT:

Bethea
Kap
Brooks

Resign:
Kerly-He's a fine slot WR and he competes with Ellington not gonna break the bank at all
Phil-if it's not broke don't need to fix it

FA/trade:

Kirk Cousins (2nd this yr and next)- top 10 QB in the league and runs Kyle's offense 5yrs $100 million
Ron Leary OG-perfect fit for Kyle's zone blocking still only 27 he's our RG 4yr $32 million
J.C. Tretter C- top 10 center and ran a similar offense in GB, he's coming off an injury so the price goes down 4yr $25 million
Johnathan Hankins NT-Solid run blocker in NY 5ys $27 million
Patrick DiMarco FB-Need a FB and it wouldn't cost much

Draft (used CBS for rankings)

I think end of the day a team is gonna fall for one of the QBs and want to jump up, SO we trade with the Bills and it's not gonna be some trade rape situation either. We get the 10th pick, their 2nd, 4th, and 2nd next yr. Yes I know we should be getting more but end of the day we get a 2nd back, picks to add this yr, and a more than likely high 2nd next yr.

1st-Cory Davis WR- He's my top WR in this draft and I wouldn't be surprised if he's gone, but the fact that he won't be running along with a ton of other great defensive prospects in the top 10 makes him drop.

2nd from the Bills (trade up if need be give-up one of our 4ths) Charles Harris DE- He would be the LEO in our new D, he has a great spin move and speed around the edge added a much needed pass rusher.

3rd-Nate Peterman QB- perfect fit for Kyle's offensive scheme. IF anything happens with Kirk this kid can come in and play, your only as good as your backup and I hope this team starts to invest in the QB position for once.

4th- Alex Anzalone ILB- Had a great Senior Bowl and has a ton of talent when healthy...he will compete with Ray Ray a the WILL spot and most likely beat him

4th (comp)- Joe Mixon RB- Yes yes I know dude is a scum BUT I do believe in 2nd chances and he would be a straight monster in Kyle's offense. I'll take a chance with a comp pick and see if Lynch can help him grow into a man.

5th-Marquez White CB-Has length and would have been drafted much much higher had he left last yr. I love me some FSU DBs

6th-Quincy Adeboyejo WR- big fast WR at 6-3 195, he's gotta learn some routes but I could see a Martavis Bryant sort of WR from him

6th- John Johnson FS- had a good senior bowl good size and doesn't hurt he can play some corner as well.

7th BPA

So like I always say after every mock none of this probably happens lol

Good start. Still work to be done but a solid offseason. Nice.

With the acquisitions of Tretter and Leary the O-Line would be set and grow together considering Staley is the only older player..that would lead to a lot of good happening..Love the Davis pick, not too familiar with Harris, you took a lot of highly recruited players who either got hurt, hurt someone or didn't fulfill their hype lol but I can see all of them being very good players at the next level..especially Marquez White..he's my sleeper at CB along with Demetrious Cox in this draft..

I like it. I would be just fine it it went this way. I really like Cousins l, I have a feeling he stays another year in WA but I would totally give up 2 seconds for him. I also like the Mixon pick. Let's face it, someone is going to grab him and get a potentially great player. He has paid his dues and I would give him 1 shot. If he screws up he's gone.
Overall I like it. Nice job.

I mean the guys I'm taking a shot on are 4th rd picks or later...Peterman wasn't really a fit in Tenn and we can say just about every qb outside of Manning have been pretty s**tty there. He's got the tools for a WCO qb and imo wouldn't be a huge project like other qbs.

White is a sleeper, this draft is so deep at SB and edge rushers it's crazy lol. I think Barnett might be worth a look in the 1st if Cory Davis is gone.

Yeah someone will take a chance and id like to think lynch and Kyle could get the best out of him.

Yeah don't get me wrong I like all the players you drafted, I can see Anzalone, Mixon and White all being steals, as for Peterman he will be a very nice QB to groom then flip in 3 yrs if Cousins is definitely our guy..and yeah trading for Cousins will allow us to take the positions you did with our 1st 2 picks..I'll take Barnett then Ross if no Davis and a pass rusher all day..

Very solid mock! I also used BUF as our trade back partner in mine. Love this! Great work

Thanks...I mean the Kirk trade is overly optimistic lol

I like it, but if Washington wants more than two 2nds, then I'd sit and wait a year to just straight up sign him when he becomes a UFA. I kind of would prefer it that way, because we're not going to be to competitive this season, so I'd rather build the roster so that a QB can slide in to a ready made O, and keeping those 2 picks would allow us to get more assets to achieve that goal.

No I agree...the issue is we won't be the only team interested in his services when he become a FA.

Mock sucks.

Good stuff.

I'm not sure we'll get Cousins at that price, and Mixon's character. I don't want any Josh Gordon types here. Other than those concerns great job.
