    My one and only mock

    I hope we stick with Hairston at LT. Our OL seemed to gel as the season went, and really we need to give Fitzpatrick more targets - he was sacked on fewer drop backs since Flutie was under center, and our rookie LT gave up 4 sacks and 3 penalties in 13 games and can only get better. Nix also doesn't have a history of going early on the OL. We do need depth at OT though.

    Despite signing two DE in Free Agency, we are moving to a 4-3 defense. I think Chan and Buddy will have learnt about trying to place square pegs in round holes and will look to get true 4-3 defensemen onboard. The best teams have quality depth here as an effective DL can make the rest of the defense look better than it is. Both the Giants and Saints have taken DEs early even when they've got established starters.

    R1.10.Quinton Coples, DE, North Carolina, 6ft5, 284lbs, 4.72 (40)

    I think Coples will slide out of the Top9 in the draft making him a steal. There is a slight question mark about motor/effort but there often is with talented players and he admitted he was concerned about getting injured in his senior season. He has the size, strength and speed allowing him to play both left andright. Anderson has never been a full time starter and I think would be most effective if rotated in with Mario and another starter as a situational pass rusher. I can see Coples being used in the same way that the Giants used Tuck,moving him inside on occasion and he’s big enough to be an occasional 3-4 defensive end. He registered 10 sacks whilst playing a lot of DT in his junior season and still made 7.5sacks whilst not making an effort, allegedly. The scouting report below is similar to mostI’ve read except Maycock.
    http://www.walterfootball.com/scouti...012qcoples.php

    R2.41.Dwayne Allen, TE, Clemson, 6ft4, 255lbs, 4.89 (40)

    One of the top two players at his position, Allen is a well rounded player equally adept at receiving as well as blocking. He does everything well if not exceptionally but would represent an upgrade over Chandler. Giving Ryan an extra target as well as giving our ground attack some help never hurts as it will allow him to get rid of the ball quickly continuing to help the Offensive Line. He’s quicker than his combine time. In a league where the pass is increasingly dominant I can't see us passing on a rounded TE 3 years in a row after the performances of Gronkowski and to a lesser extent Rudolph.
    http://www.walterfootball.com/scouti...2012dallen.php

    R3.71.Trumaine Johnson, CB, Montana, 6ft2, 204lbs, 4.61 (40)

    He didn’t run well at the combine but has been clocked sub 4.50 on several occasions. The guy is a footballer with great instincts, with quick feet and excellent balance. Our secondary is short in a league of giant WRs and fast TEs. Getting some height will definitely help. Speed is more important if youare often out of position and Johnson often isn’t. He may not well fall to us,but I’m hoping he does. He’s a good tackler, and potential Year 1 starter.
    http://www.buffalobillsdraft.com/2012/01/cb-trumaine-johnson-scouting-report/

    R4.105. Brandon Mosley, RT, Auburn, 6ft6, 314lbs,5.21 (40)

    He is a raw prospect with good strength and experience at RT, giving good depth behind Pears and allowing Hairston to develop further on the left hand side. He has decent length arms (34”) and a solid bench press.
    http://www.nationalfootballpost.com/college_player_scouting_report.html&player=46620

    R4.124.Tommy Streeter, WR, Miami, 6ft5, 219lbs, 4.40 (40)

    He has the size and ability to stretch the field but is inexperienced. He has shown the ability to get separation both down the field and on shorter routes. He’s also got the size and strength to be an ugly blocker. Whilst only a one year starter his production matches that of the more highly regarded Marvin Jones of California. http://www.miamidolphinsdraft.com/2012/02/tommy-streeter-scouting-report/

    R5.144. Travis Lewis, OLB, Oklahoma, 6ft1, 246lbs,4.75 (40)

    Getting a potential Day1 starter in Round 5 is rare but this is what Lewis could represent. He was touted as a possible first rounder after his junior year, but a broken toe requiring surgery followed by a tentative senior season led to him sliding, though he plays hurt. Did not have a good combine but it was not Burfictesque. Has generally been productive and offers good depth at WLB. http://www.walterfootball.com/scoutingreport2011tlewis.php

    R5.147. BJ Coleman, QB, Tennessee-Chattanooga, 6ft3, 233lbs

    He had an excellent East-West Shrine game and has the arm strength to thread the ball. Definitely has development potential and Mel Kiper likes him, for whatthat’s worth.
    http://www.nyjetsdraft.com/2012/03/q...outing-report/

    R6.178.Jeff Adams, LT, Columbia, 6ft6, 308lbs, 5.18 (40)

    Some might think this is high for Adams, but he has one advantage over his contemporaries that will have him go higher. He is a legitimate left tackle with the athleticism to play here in the NFL. It will be a steep learning curve, but he is more advanced than Bell was when we drafted him. He will need some coaching on his technique and needs to get stronger but the raw tools are there, and he has the intelligence to learn quickly. I did think Andrew Datko but his injuries will scare people away. He won’t start in his rookie season but may well move Hairston to the right hand side by his second.Several teams are looking at him including the Redskins and Cardinals as well as the Bengals and Jets. http://www.columbiaspectator.com/2012/03/27/waiting-game-adams-nfl-draft-approaches
    I know fans would want LT taken earlier but it is quite a weak class at this position.

    R7.217.Micah Pellerin, CB, Hampton, 6ft1, 194lbs, 4.47 (40)

    He is an experienced corner generally solid across the board. Coming from a small school will prevent him going high.He is a former safety who can tackle and who has excellent speed for his size.
    http://www.nepatriotsdraft.com/2012/...ng-report.html

    R7.251.Chase Ford, TE, Miami, 6ft6, 258lbs, 4.69 (40)

    Both the Patriots and Ravens have double dipped at TE in the draft recently so we would be in good company. Under used with the Hurricanes and definitely more a receiver than blocker.

          Re: My one and only mock

          I like the Streeter, Lewis, Coleman, and Ford picks.

          I like Dwayne Allen as a player quite a bit. I just find it hard to believe he improves your team the most at that pick.

          If Mosley fell to the 4th he'd be a steal.

                      I did think that with Zach Brown or Mohamed Sanu, but felt the drop off in quality was far less at these positions than the fall from Dwayne Allen was.

                      Allen won't be there in the 3rd, but when people are talking of the likes of Broyles, Streeter, Childs or even the impressive Coale being there in the 4th I thought Allen was the best option.

                        I think if you're looking for a TE that can both block and catch on day 3, Deangelo Peterson from LSU is a good option. Dwayne Allen could be a Brandon Pettigrew-level player, though.

                        Oh yeah, and Smelley from Alabama can be had in the 6th or 7th. He's underrated IMO.

                          I like this mock a lot better than others I have seen.

                          I'm a fan of taking Coples and I really like Dwayne Allen. I also love the Mosley and Streeter picks in the 4th.

                            I thought the latter part of your draft was better than the early rounds. Not picking an LT is a serious deficiency.
