2017 Mock Drafts

[Cowboysrock55]

For now. There is always so much jostling after the All-Star Bowls and Combine some of the guys in the middle of the draft with fall to us. I'll try not to get my heart set on any one until at least all that is over.

Yeah a lot will change.

 

[chevycowboys]

Would have been nice to keep Darius Jackson.

In retrospect maybe we should have cut Alfred Morris for him.

Should have cut Dunbar for him. But I guess he has homo picks of Garrett so he stayed instead..

 

[chevycowboys]

I mean Garrett and Jaylon Smith as the only two new starters to this defense next year could really propel us from average to great. To me its worth sacrificing a couple late second round picks. Then just resign everyone else in free agency.

And Lee..

 

[chevycowboys]

I actually think we could be a DE away from the Superbowl. We weren't that far away this year. Give me an elite pass rusher on the defense this year and I think we would be in the Superbowl. I mean you're literally talking about someone who could have caused maybe one more negative play for Aaron Rodgers and that game goes a totally different direction.

I would like for us to sign Eric Berry. If no other defensive free agents at least sign Berry and get a stud DE in the draft and this defense gets a lot stouter!

 

[chevycowboys]

And so it begins... Let Kiper and the Cowboys corner whoring begin. But Barnett who he has going after is who I really want. That guy broke Reggie White's sack record and the last game I saw he was just an unstoppable force at DE.

The deadline for underclassmen to declare for the 2017 NFL draft has passed, and the field is set. That means it's time for Mock Draft 1.0.

A few reminders:

NFL teams are still early in their evaluations. No team has a draft board yet, and we still have to get through postseason all-star games, combine testing, medicals, pro days and individual workouts.

There's a long time until the draft, and we have to get through free agency before we truly know each team's needs. That's why several of these picks are based on who I think is the best player available. In some cases, I have identified a few needs that could be targeted.

Any questions? Good. Off we go.

Note: One asterisk denotes a junior, and two asterisks denote a redshirt sophomore.



1. Cleveland Browns

*Myles Garrett, DE, Texas A&M


Garrett is the top prospect on my Big Board, and he's a premier pass-rushing talent who had 32.5 sacks in three seasons for the Aggies. The Browns are in the beginning stages of a rebuild, and Garrett would be a foundational piece. Keep an eye on a potential trade down from Cleveland, though, as it did last year out of the No. 2 spot. The Browns want to keep acquiring picks. They could also fall in love with one of the talented but green quarterbacks.


2. San Francisco 49ers

*Mitch Trubisky, QB, North Carolina

This isn't a strong draft for quarterbacks. Trubisky is the best QB in the draft, but he's only No. 16 on my Big Board. He has only one season of collegiate starting experience, completing 68.2 percent of his passes with 30 touchdown passes and six interceptions. The 49ers still don't have a general manager or coach, and Colin Kaepernick could be on his way out.


3. Chicago Bears

Jonathan Allen, DL, Alabama

Allen, who had 22.5 sacks over the past two seasons, could play defensive end or defensive tackle in the NFL. Positional flexibility is a big selling point, and he'd likely play end in the Bears' 3-4 in this scenario. He was one of the best players in college football in 2016. The Bears had a disappointing 2016 season and have needs across the board, including at quarterback, safety and potentially receiver, depending on what happens with free agent Alshon Jeffery.


4. Jacksonville Jaguars

*Jamal Adams, S, LSU

Adams is built for today's NFL as a versatile safety who can play in the box effectively, make tackles against the run and move to the edges and track slot receivers. Jacksonville hit on a couple of defenders in the 2016 draft (Jalen Ramsey and Yannick Ngakoue; Myles Jack is still an unknown), but the Jags need more help.


5. Tennessee Titans (from Los Angeles Rams)

*Mike Williams, WR, Clemson

One of the stars in the Tigers' national title game win, Williams finished the season with 98 catches for 1,361 yards and 11 touchdowns. He's the top wideout in this draft. Marcus Mariota could use a deep threat and chain-mover -- Williams was fifth in the country in 2016 with 60 catches that resulted in first downs.


6. New York Jets

**Marshon Lattimore, CB, Ohio State

Lattimore is another first-year starter who jumped to the top of my cornerback rankings with a stellar season. A hamstring injury limited his time on the field in Columbus in 2014 and 2015. Speed, size (6-foot-1, 190) -- he has all the traits to be a star. Darrelle Revis could be on his way out with the Jets -- or move to safety -- and Lattimore would slide into his spot on Day 1.


7. San Diego Chargers

*Cam Robinson, OT, Alabama

This isn't a great class for top-tier blindside protectors, but Robinson is at the top of the list, though I think his best skill -- run-blocking -- means he'd be better as a right tackle at the nehnxt level. A three-year starter for the Crimson Tide, he's a known commodity in the NFL. The Chargers ranked in the bottom third of the league in rushing (3.8 yards per carry, 97.9 yards per game) in 2016, and tackles Joe Barksdale and King Dunlap have underwhelmed.


8. Carolina Panthers

*Leonard Fournette, RB, LSU

This is really the first spot I see that could be a good fit for Fournette, barring a trade up. He's a special athlete with an incredible combination of size (6-1, 235), speed and power, but he won't get a grade as high as I gave Ezekiel Elliott last year. Elliott went No. 4 in 2016, but backs have been devalued in recent years -- he was the only back taken in the first round. Jonathan Stewart turns 30 this year and averaged only 3.8 yards per carry in 2016.


9. Cincinnati Bengals

**Solomon Thomas, DE, Stanford

Thomas, one of the biggest risers of the year, had eight sacks in 2016. At 6-3, 270, he could move inside and play tackle, too. The Bengals need pass-rushing help -- they had only 33 total sacks in a disappointing 2016 -- and this is a good draft for edge rushers.


10. Buffalo Bills

*Deshaun Watson, QB, Clemson

I'm a believer in franchises with new head coaches starting fresh with new quarterbacks, and it appears likely the Bills move on from Tyrod Taylor after hiring Sean McDermott. That leaves Buffalo with a huge hole and a top-10 pick to fill it. I wrote last week that I didn't think Watson would get a post-title game draft bounce, but I've heard differently from people around the NFL. Though he had an up-and-down season -- and threw 17 interceptions -- Watson is extremely talented. He's the second quarterback off the board in this projection, ahead of Notre Dame's DeShone Kizer.


11. New Orleans Saints

Reuben Foster, ILB, Alabama

Foster is one of my favorite prospects in this draft. At 6-1, 240 pounds, he has stellar range, runs sideline to sideline and is a complete linebacker. He's a terrific blitzer, too, and recorded five sacks in 2016. The Saints need defensive help -- 2015 first-round pick Stephone Anthony played just 127 defensive snaps this season.


12. Cleveland Browns (from Philadelphia Eagles)

*Dalvin Cook, RB, Florida State

After picking Myles Garrett No. 1, this would give the Browns two prospects in the top five of my Big Board. Cook is a speedy home run hitter who rushed for 4,464 yards and had 48 total touchdowns in three seasons for the Seminoles. Cleveland also could look at an offensive lineman, cornerback or linebacker.


13. Arizona Cardinals

*Teez Tabor, CB, Florida

Tabor, my No. 2 cornerback, is a playmaker who had eight interceptions -- with three returned for touchdowns -- the past two seasons. Arizona struggled to find a No. 2 corner opposite Patrick Peterson all of 2016, and in Tabor the Cardinals would get a guy who could step in and start on Day 1. Arizona could take a look at a pass-rusher, too, depending on what happens with free agents Calais Campbell and Chandler Jones.


14. Philadelphia Eagles (from Minnesota Vikings)

*Quincy Wilson, CB, Florida

That Florida secondary was loaded the past few seasons with Wilson, Tabor and 2016 first-round pick Vernon Hargreaves III. Wilson is right there with Tabor on my board. He's a little bigger (6-1, 213) than Tabor (6-0, 201) and has good ball skills and instincts. This is a spot in which the Eagles need immediate help.


15. Indianapolis Colts

Takkarist McKinley, OLB, UCLA

A dominant speed rusher, McKinley gave Pac-12 offensive tackles nightmares in 2016. He took a big leap as a senior with 10 sacks, going from fringe prospect to first-rounder. At 6-2, 240 pounds, he's not huge, but his explosion off the line is suited for today's NFL. Indianapolis needs playmakers on defense, and McKinley is a great fit.


16. Baltimore Ravens

**Jabrill Peppers, S, Michigan

The Harbaugh connection is interesting here. Who has better intel on Peppers than his college coach, Jim Harbaugh? And Jim's brother, John, is the Ravens' coach. Peppers is a fantastic talent, but he's a tweener and is more of a rover back. He could be an in-the-box safety or linebacker who helps in run support and goes out and covers slot receivers and tight ends. The right team will get creative with him and get a star playmaker.


17. Washington Redskins

**Malik Hooker, S, Ohio State

Hooker was the best center-field-type safety I saw this season -- he has incredible speed and range and was all over the field for the Buckeyes. He had seven interceptions, three of which he returned for touchdowns. Washington could also have a need at wide receiver, even after taking Josh Doctson in the first round last year. Pierre Garcon and DeSean Jackson are both free agents. Keep an eye on a pass-rusher here, too.


18. Tennessee Titans

**Marlon Humphrey, CB, Alabama

I've mentioned this before, but 2017 could be the year of the third-year sophomore. Humphrey is the fifth such player I listed in the first round. A hamstring injury slowed him down toward the end of the 2016 season, but he's an outstanding prospect with great size (6-1, 196). The Titans have two first-round picks -- I gave them Mike Williams at No. 5 -- and cornerback should be a spot they target.


19. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Taco Charlton, DE, Michigan

Charlton plays with good leverage for his height (6-5) and has active hands and an incredible wingspan. I'm curious what he'll measure at the combine. He can play on his feet, too, which means he could fit in a 4-3 or 3-4 scheme. The Bucs took Noah Spence in the second round last year, and he improved in their 4-3 as the season progressed (5.5 sacks). Charlton would be a great pick.


20. Denver Broncos

*Garett Bolles, OT, Utah

Bolles started only one season for the Utes after coming over from a junior college, but he was tremendous. He has nice feet and can drive defenders off the ball at 6-5, 300 pounds. Denver has to get some help at tackle in order to get back on top of an AFC West that features two games every season against Justin Houston, Khalil Mack and Joey Bosa. Russell Okung has a team option at $11.7 million, and Donald Stephenson had a poor first season with the Broncos.


21. Detroit Lions

Tim Williams, OLB, Alabama

Williams (6-4, 250) is a fantastic pass-rushing talent who can be unblockable at times. He had 19.5 sacks the past two seasons. Williams would have to put on some weight to play end in a 4-3, but his talent is undeniable. The Lions were second to last in sacks in 2016 (26), and Ezekiel Ansah had only two after a breakout 2015 season in which he had 14.5. This is a clear need, especially with few pass-rushers available in free agency.


22. Miami Dolphins

Jarrad Davis, LB, Florida

As a steady and reliable linebacker with a nose for the football, Davis' versatility stands out. He could play inside or outside linebacker at the next level, though he's not a guy who will get 10 sacks on the outside in a 3-4. He can be an every-down guy.


23. New York Giants

*Ryan Ramczyk, OT, Wisconsin

Picking another tackle would allow the Giants to move 2015 top-10 pick Ereck Flowers over to the right side -- he struggled in 2016. Ramczyk, who has had an amazing path to the NFL, is a 6-6, 314-pound road grader with all the traits of an NFL starter, but he's not a talent on the level of former Badger Joe Thomas (who is?). New York could also target a pass-rusher or tight end (none are off the board so far).


24. Oakland Raiders

*Malik McDowell, DT, Michigan State

How can a team with Khalil Mack rank last in the league in sacks? That happened this season -- he had 11 and the rest of the defense had 14. McDowell had only 7.5 sacks in his career, but the talent is there to produce much more in the NFL. He's a tremendous athlete with a 6-6, 290-pound frame who is still raw. One position to keep an eye on: running back. Latavius Murray is a free agent, and this class is loaded.


25. Houston Texans

*Budda Baker, S, Washington

Baker, the fourth safety off the board so far, is a dynamic athlete with a small frame -- he's only 5-10, 173. He was a tackling machine for the Huskies, and he had two picks and three sacks in 2016. Quintin Demps is a free agent, and the Texans need to upgrade their defensive backfield.


26. Seattle Seahawks

Cordrea Tankersley, CB, Clemson

The Seahawks like big corners, and Tankersley (6-1, 190) fits their style as a guy who could hold up opposite Richard Sherman, and DeShawn Shead's knee injury opens up a spot. Tankersley had nine interceptions over his last two seasons and was a big part of the Tigers' success. Seattle will be in the market for offensive linemen, too, but I don't have much first-round talent available here at No. 26. There's still a long time until draft day, however.


27. Kansas City Chiefs

Corey Davis, WR, Western Michigan

The Chiefs' top pass-catchers in 2016 were a tight end (Travis Kelce) and rookie fifth-round pick who was better known for his return skills (Tyreek Hill). Davis was one of the most productive wideouts in the country during his career at Western Michigan, catching 331 passes for 5,278 yards and 52 touchdowns. He has ideal size (6-2, 212) and length to be a great NFL wideout. Kansas City has an interesting offseason ahead -- it doesn't have a ton of cap room, and it has to find a way to bring back top free agents Eric Berry and Dontari Poe.


28. Dallas Cowboys

*Sidney Jones, CB, Washington

Jones, a three-year starter for the Huskies, is the sixth corner off the board. At 6-1, 170, he's agile and fast with nice ball skills. He had nine interceptions in his career. Dallas has a glaring need at defensive end, but don't count out a corner here. Brandon Carr and Morris Claiborne are free agents.


29. Green Bay Packers

*Christian McCaffrey, RB, Stanford

McCaffrey fits what the Packers want on offense. He's versatile like college quarterback-turned-receiver Randall Cobb and Ty Montgomery, who switched to running back in 2016. McCaffrey can return kicks, catch the ball out of the backfield -- he's dynamic with the ball in his hands. The Packers have a few needs on defense, but running back Eddie Lacy is a free agent, and they don't have an internal replacement.


30. Pittsburgh Steelers

*Charles Harris, OLB, Missouri

Harris had an up-and-down 2016 with nine sacks and two forced fumbles, but his ceiling his high. In this scenario, Harris (6-3, 255) would be an outside linebacker in the Steelers' 3-4, but he could play end in a 4-3 or even move inside to rush the passer from a tackle spot. Pass-rushers Jarvis Jones (a 2013 first-round pick) and James Harrison (who turns 39 this summer) will be free agents.


31. Atlanta Falcons

*Derek Barnett, DE, Tennessee


Barnett (6-3, 265) is the eighth defensive end or outside linebacker to go in my first round -- this is a great class for pass-rushers. He is an all-around defender who beats double-teams and makes plays in the running game, and he's versatile enough to play in a 4-3 or 3-4. The light came on for Vic Beasley Jr. in Year 2 in the NFL, but his 15.5 sacks accounted for 45.5 percent of the Falcons' total in 2016. He needs some help.


32. New England Patriots

O.J. Howard, TE, Alabama

Howard, my top-ranked tight end, had only seven touchdowns in his four-year career, but three came in national title games. The Crimson Tide didn't use Howard (6-6, 250) much in the passing game, and he could be more productive in the NFL. He can stretch the deep middle of the field and be a dynamic weapon. New England's No. 2 tight end, Martellus Bennett, could get a big deal in free agency this offseason, and it's too early to tell how Rob Gronkowski's back injury will heal. Another tight end to keep an eye on here: David Njoku, a talented and athletic guy from Miami (Fla.) who had a great junior season.

Cleveland is fucking retarded if they don't take a QB, they had their chance last year and passed and could have been better this year with one. If they pass up on one again they are idiots. I would think they would try and draft Deshaun Watson.

 

[chevycowboys]

Yes, yes, now you see.

Carr/Scandrick/Brown as our top 3, Jones comes down in some passing situations and then maybe we spend a mid-round pick on another CB for depth. I'd rather take a safety at 29 assuming we don't re-sign Church and Wilcox.

Eric Berry

 

[Cowboysrock55]

Cleveland is fucking retarded if they don't take a QB, they had their chance last year and passed and could have been better this year with one. If they pass up on one again they are idiots. I would think they would try and draft Deshaun Watson.

This class sucks. They really missed their chance last year.

 

[chevycowboys]

This class sucks. They really missed their chance last year.

Maybe so, I will say Deshaun played really well in the championship game. I admit I haven't watched any of his others but he showed a lot in that game.

 

[Simpleton]

Eric Berry

Good suggestion, I'm sure it'll be easy as one, two, three to sign a 3-time First Team All-Pro.

 

[jsmith6919]

Cleveland is fucking retarded if they don't take a QB, they had their chance last year and passed and could have been better this year with one. If they pass up on one again they are idiots. I would think they would try and draft Deshaun Watson.

They drafted a qb before we did, Hue stood on the table for Kessler in the third for some damn reason

 

[Cowboysrock55]

Good suggestion, I'm sure it'll be easy as one, two, three to sign a 3-time First Team All-Pro.

I'm not so sure he isn't franchised again.

 

[Jiggyfly]

They drafted a qb before we did, Hue stood on the table for Kessler in the third for some damn reason

Kessler looked pretty good he just could not stay healthy.

Three-round mock draft: Deshaun Watson goes No. 1 to Browns

By Chad Reuter
Draft analyst

Published: Jan. 23, 2017 at 01:20 p.m.

The 2017 Senior Bowl is kicking off with a series of practices this week and culminating with a game on Saturday, all live on NFL Network. Of course, this mock draft was written before many of the top college seniors started gathering in Mobile, Ala., for a week that could alter their draft positioning. It also comes before many other events -- like the scouting combine, free agency and pro days -- that will shape and re-shape this draft. With that said, here is an early look at the first three rounds and how the picks could play out in three months:

Note: The Vikings, who traded their first-round pick to the Eagles as part of the Sam Bradford deal, have the same record and strength of schedule as the Colts, so there's a tie for the 14th, 46th and 79th picks. A coin flip at a later date will determine which team picks first. Teams with the same record will rotate so that the team selecting first in Round 1 will select last in the following round:

PICK

1 Cleveland Browns

Deshaun Watson - QB, Clemson

Hue Jackson will love Watson's physical attributes and his leadership skills.

PICK

2 San Francisco 49ers

Myles Garrett - OLB, Texas A&M

The 49ers get a difference-making pass rusher.


PICK

3 Chicago Bears

Mitch Trubisky - QB, North Carolina
Trubisky is an accurate passer with athleticism. If the Bears want to keep up with Detroit and Green Bay in the division, they need a new quarterback.

PICK

4 Jacksonville Jaguars

Jonathan Allen - DT, Alabama
Jacksonville has a couple of free agents up front, so Allen fits a probable need.

PICK

5 Tennessee Titans

Jamal Adams - S, LSU
The Titans shore up the secondary by adding Adams.


PICK

6 New York Jets

DeShone Kizer - QB, Notre Dame

Kizer has a chance to be the No. 1 overall pick. His potential makes it tough for quarterback-needy teams to pass him up.
PICK

7 San Diego Chargers

Malik Hooker - S, Ohio State
Hooker's range and ball skills are top-10 worthy.

PICK

8 Carolina Panthers

Leonard Fournette - RB, LSU

Fournette's power and speed translate to an elite prospect, and the Panthers need to bring back their running game.

PICK

9 Cincinnati Bengals

Solomon Thomas - DE, Stanford
Thomas looked unblockable in Stanford's bowl game. Could be similar to J.J. Watt in that his best is yet to come.
PICK

10 Buffalo Bills

Mike Williams - WR, Clemson

No matter what quarterback the Bills trot out next season, in this scenario they would have two former Clemson studs to throw to in Sammy Watkins and Williams.

PICK

11 New Orleans Saints

Derek Barnett - DE, Tennessee
Barnett and Cameron Jordan would be a fearsome pair.

PICK

12 Cleveland Browns

Reuben Foster - ILB, Alabama
Foster is an athletic defensive leader.
PICK

13 Arizona Cardinals

Corey Davis - WR, Western Michigan
Larry Fitzgerald will retire soon, and Michael Floyd was jettisoned. Davis is the physical playmaker the Cardinals need.
PICK

14 Indianapolis Colts

Dalvin Cook - RB, Florida State
With the best pass rushers off the board, the Colts take the best player available.
PICK

14 Philadelphia Eagles

Marshon Lattimore - CB, Ohio State
Desperate for help in the secondary, the Eagles find the draft's top corner waiting to be picked.
PICK

16 Baltimore Ravens

Sidney Jones - CB, Washington
Jones is the sort of wiry-but-technically-strong corner the Ravens covet.
PICK

17 Washington Redskins

Jabrill Peppers - S, Michigan
Washington needs a strong safety, and Peppers fits that bill.

PICK

18 Tennessee Titans
David Njoku - TE, Miami
Pairing Delanie Walker and Njoku gives Marcus Mariota great options on every play.

PICK

19 Tampa Bay Buccaneers

John Ross - WR, Washington
Jameis Winston will like having a speed demon to throw to when Mike Evans is bracketed.

PICK

20 Denver Broncos

Forrest Lamp - OL, Western Kentucky
The line must improve no matter who is leading the offense at QB next year.

PICK

21 Detroit Lions

Quincy Wilson - CB, Florida
The Lions have had issues in the secondary for years. Wilson gives them a physical presence on the edge, and could move to safety as well.

PICK

22 Miami Dolphins

O.J. Howard - TE, Alabama
Howard can be a safety valve for Ryan Tannehill and a good run blocker on the edge.

PICK

23 New York Giants

Ryan Ramczyk - OT, Wisconsin
Ereck Flowers has been a liability for the Giants at left tackle.
PICK

24 Oakland Raiders

Malik McDowell - DT, Michigan State
Jack Del Rio wants an interior pass rusher. McDowell's length and quickness off the snap give him a chance to shine in that role.
PICK

25 Houston Texans

Garett Bolles - OT, Utah
Injuries and ineffectiveness have made tackle a need spot for the Texans.

PICK

26 Seattle Seahawks

Cam Robinson - OT, Alabama

Robinson will help Pete Carroll control the clock using the run game.
PICK

27 Kansas City Chiefs

Teez Tabor - CB, Florida

With Marcus Peters and Tabor on the field, it will be difficult for opposing quartebacks to find an open receiver.

PICK

28 Dallas Cowboys

Taco Charlton - DE, Michigan
A pass rusher with size, just like Jerry Jones likes 'em.
PICK

29 Green Bay Packers

T.J. Watt - OLB, Wisconsin
Similar to Clay Matthews coming out, Watt is a one-year star with great potential.

PICK

30 Pittsburgh Steelers

Takkarist McKinley - OLB, UCLA
Jarvis Jones and James Harrison will be free agents, so the Steelers will utilize McKinley's length and strength right away.
PICK

31 Atlanta Falcons

Dan Feeney - G, Indiana

Shoring up the interior of the offensive line is a major need.

PICK

32 New England Patriots

Zach Cunningham - ILB, Vanderbilt

Bill Belichick will find a place to play for Cunningham.

[Cowboysrock55]

Taco is great. But after that I'm not a fan. And a Dunbar replacement in the second round would have me pissed.

 

[VA Cowboy]

Taco would be great but I think he'll be gone.

 

[BipolarFuk]

Taco is great. But after that I'm not a fan. And a Dunbar replacement in the second round would have me pissed.

I would be very happy with that

Yeah the second pick annoyed me so much that I never even bothered with who the third guy was. Sounds like a great third round pick actually. And someone with enough size and ball skills that you can always try him at safety if needed.

I'd actually be shocked if Douglas lasted to the end of the third. After all the process is done, I doubt we'll get him in the second. He's big, can run, and has ball skills. This is no homer pick either. I hate wvu.

Yeah Desmond King would be my homer corner but I feel like there is good justification for it. The guy was the DB of the year in college football as a JR. Has elite return skills and exceptional ball skills. Plus he is a really good tackler. He doesn't have elite long speed which is why he isn't in the equation as a first round corner but I'd love him in Dallas.
