Assuming your trade which I like I would go...In this mock scenario the Cowboys move down with SF in the first round...we trade 18 to SF for 31, 61, and 237.
Swearinger is ranked higher then Reid according to Scouts Inc. and Carp took him at that pick... I would have no problem taking Reid in the second round either to be totally fair. Still if he is the fifth best safety in the draft I don't think it is a stretch to think he makes it to the third round.I would bet a vast sum of money that neither Reid or Franklin would last that long.
They both might be gone before 47, let alone 80 and 151 which is completely ridiculous for Franklin.
Don't smear my beautiful mock.
He had Jimmy Clausen as an alltimer...so, well, you know.
Just to go a little further Reid isn't even in Kiper's top 5 safeties.
Yeah, and some people really liked Mike Williams from USC...He had Jimmy Clausen as an alltimer...so, well, you know.
I had totally forgotten about Okafor. He is a solid DE prospect who I really like. Overall I would be pretty happy with that draft.Just to be a little realistic I'm not going to give us Warmack/Cooper/Richardson in the 1st since that would obviously be ideal.
18. DJ Fluker, OT Alabama
47. Jonathan Cyprien, S Florida International
80. Alex Okafor, DE Texas
114. Akeem Spence, DT Illinois
151. Mike Gillislee, RB Florida
185. AJ Klein, LB Iowa St.
He's not a quick-twitch, explosive type of edge rusher the NFL craves but I think he could be a very solid strong-side DE who can hold the edge while also giving you 6 or so sacks a year, I'd even be ok with him in the 2nd.I had totally forgotten about Okafor.

That's my thought as well. Not all that different then what Greg Ellis was (Without the bitchiness). He might get 10 sacks in a season once or twice but in general he will be more of a complimentary end to your dominant pass rusher at RE. It's exactly what I look for a in a second/third round DE.He's not a quick-twitch, explosive type of edge rusher the NFL craves but I think he could be a very solid strong-side DE who can hold the edge while also giving you 6 or so sacks a year, I'd even be ok with him in the 2nd.
So, an Alex Brown or a Brian Robison?He's not a quick-twitch, explosive type of edge rusher the NFL craves but I think he could be a very solid strong-side DE who can hold the edge while also giving you 6 or so sacks a year, I'd even be ok with him in the 2nd.
