What you talkin' bout?!
This will be my final mock draft until I come up with another one. I have to say that I am so psyched about our prospects. All signs are pointing to the fact that Randy and Cam are making the right moves.
A few notes:
I don't believe in trade scenarios for mocks.
I don't believe that Brady Quinn will be there at #9.
1. Ted Ginn, Jr. - WR – Ohio St.
-He's one of a few special players in this years draft, and he fills so many needs for us. Immediately Ginn will be one of the premiere return men in the league, and if that equates to 6-7 yards more on returns, then that's 6-7 yards closer to scoring. Ginn also compliments our receivers perfectly...he will be our speedster flanker, Booker will be the sure-handed grinder and Chambers can work his magic in the slot (never underestimate how crucial “magic” is in this game). Could you imagine Ginn coming around for a reverse...I know the defense could, and they'd be scared poopless.
2a. Ryan Kalil – C – USC
-This is my only pick that is probably not likely to be available...but I've seen him going a little lower on some mocks and I couldn't think of a better fit. His only knock is he's a little undersized, but he makes up for it in strength, technique and heart.
If Kalil is off the board, I would go with Andy Alleman.
2b. Doug Free – OT – Northern Illinois
-Just an incredible specimen that could be very special. Let Hudson show him the way and LT could be set for the next 10 years.
3. John Beck – QB – BYU
-I can not understand why there isn't more talk about this player. He is a complete package. Excellent accuracy, feet, head, heart, arm, leader...the kid has it all. The knocks against him are his age, 25 (he took 2 ½ years off to do missionary work...went to BYU). But so what, that just made him a more mature college field general. The other knock I've read about was his arm, but I have no idea where that came from. Beck has a gun. He had the 2nd fastest ball at the combine (61.1 mph), and check out YouTube and you'll see the boy can bring the heat.
He is my favorite prospect for us in the draft!
4. Kevin Boss – TE – Western Oregon
-Kevin Boss reminds me of that riddle: What's 6'7”, 252 lbs., ran a 4.74 forty, has a 35” vertical and excellent hands?...Kevin Boss. Former basketballer who could be the type of TE that Cam loves.
6a. Courtney Brown – CB – Cal Poly
-A small school wonder who, like Kevin Boss, has amazing physical gifts perfect for cornerback. He's 6'2”, 200lbs., runs a 4.32 forty (yeah, you read that right), and has a 41 ½” vertical! Just needs to learn the position more, but a few seasons down the road, he could be a shutdown corner.
Probably won't be here cuz the word is getting out. In this case, I'd go with Dane Upresa from Hawaii.
6b. Joe Cohen – DT – Florida
-Brings some youth to the line, a solid addition to the rotation.
7a. Alonzo Coleman – RB – Hampton
-A stong, fast cutter who would be an ideal change of pace back to compliment Ronnie.
7b. Greg Peterson – DE – NC Central
-A small school project that has the tools to develop into a player. 6'5”, 286lbs., 4.73 forty.
I didn't go after the defense in the early part of the draft because, well frankly, we need all the help we can get on offense. Our D will be tough, and I'm hoping that Roth and the Wright's can step it up.
Go Phins!
Jets Suck!
