I Really like Windy's offseason re-signings and FA pickups however not to much on his mock draft though (DONT TAKE IT PERSONAL DUDE). So here is my version anything goes just refrain from the dick ripping off please


1.JAYLON SMITH-NOTRE DAME-ILB

jaylon-smith-tyrone-swoopes-ncaa-football-texas-notre-dame-590x900.jpg


This guy has star writing all over him. I have watched him for the past few years and he continues to ball. He is all over the field instinctive can play wherever and is so quick to attack and hits hard can shed blocks he does need to ad weight in the nfl and need to be a little more disciplined he can over pursue at times. But his versatility to be able to play ILB/OLB fits Fangio's scheme imo.

2.JEREMY CASH- DUKE-SS

malcolm-lewis-ncaa-football-miami-duke.jpg


After watching this guy for the past couple of weeks I am convinced that you don't pass up on players like him I am thinking Troy Polamalu when I watch him this kid might just end up being a first round pick though. With rolle being injury prone pace would be wise to ad this kid imo. If Amos can solidify the FS spot I think Cash can the SS spot.

3.Anthony Zettel-PENN STATE-DE/DT

th


Zettle is a gritty player that can pressure the qb the consistently is penetrating offensive lines and is quick to get off double teams could be a nice 1-2 punch with goldman with our d-line depth getting thin this makes sense to me. I think he could be a 2nd rounder however with nassib getting all the noise lately

4.Pat Elfein-OG-OSU

456405384-pat-elflein-of-the-ohio-state-buckeyes-and-gettyimages.jpg


Elfien has been opening holes for Elliot for the past couple years no reason why he cant in the NFL. He has been facing some of the top defenses college has to offer so I think he can ad depth or maybe start. Just because he doesn't has the size you want don't mean you cant play

5.Brandon Frayson- CB-VT

Duke+v+Virginia+Tech+P-8OtKuS35Mx.jpg


Brandon is a very physical CB I think could be a sleeper with all the hype going to fuller. This guy can be the press corner fangio needs oh yeah the dude 6'2 so size shouldn't be the issue here.

6.Paxton Lynch-QB-Memphis

memphis-quarterback-paxton-lynch.jpg


Paxton has size and strength make all the throw you need to in the pros if you haven't watched his last game against Ole miss was great game. Its obvious clausen is not even a back up in this system so I think grooming Paxton for a year or so if cutler stays could be they way to go cause I just don't see franchise QB in this years draft.

6.Sebastian Tretola-OG-Arkansas

73-Sebastian-Tretola-FB-2015-3336.jpg


Tretola is a mauler Arkansas is a ground and pound team and he pretty much is part pound need to develop pass protection but could be good option in goal line situations little risk here

6. Jimmy Bean-OLB-Oklahoma State

th


Bean has done well this year don't don't think he is starting material however can ad depth in special teams play that sux

7.Derek Watt- FB-Wisconsin

Derek+Watt+Ohio+State+v+Wisconsin+XXnsUdXm5f0l.jpg


Yes the brother of J.J Watt we need a versitle fb who can run/catch/block on goal line situations I figured what the hell at 7 their is no risk here





Its obvious their are lots of hole in this team that you cant fix in one year or in one draft however Fox has this team playing with heart and Pace is getting rid of all the whiners. It looks like in order to fix the bears you have to start changing the culture and I believe this is happening.Rome wasn't built in a day.

I'd be happy with his, mainly because of Jaylon Smith and Paxton Lynch. I also really like Pat Elfein if he can be better in pass protection he could be a starting guard easily.

This is just another mock without a big picture plan. Its just an exercise to fill holes as opposed to a strategy to become a dominant team. Windy's mocks seem to have the same problem.

I like the first 2 picks. But you need to go back to the drawing board after that. Lynch is probably a top 25 pick at this point. You have him in the 6th round. You have Brandon Facyson in the 5th round. Facyson is a redshirt sophomore. If the NFL draft advisory committee tells him he's anything less than a 2nd round pick, he'll return to VT and play out at least 1 of his 2 seasons left of eligibility.

Zettel is a nice player, but he's like 280lbs iwth a mostly maxed out frame. He doesn't fit Fangio's huge DL at all.

I cannot complain about any draft plan that is designed to infuse our defense with even more young talent.

That being said, the best part of this draft has to be that you'd have us draft two OGs and a FB. A more powerful running attack would make a huge difference in our red-zone efficiency.

Paxon lynch in the 6th round?

Only if he fails a drug test at the combine and has a leg amputated in the next 60 days.

Guy will be picked in the first 2 rounds or earlier....but nice try.

Oh and you called Antrel Rolle, a guy who including the last 2 games has missed a total of 3 games in the last 10 years, injury prone? LOL.

In the mod forum planning your ban
So why is Lynch so low if he is that much of an intriguing prospect?

really man this is a mid year mock not next year wow Frayson will enter the draft no reason not to cause VT is not going to get enough hype next year for him to stay

Zettle has plenty of room to grow for one and you don't need to be 300 plus to play d line.

I don't know for sure but I what I have been hearing fangios d line aren't all over 300 he plays a 3-4 d line at Penn ?

So, he's going to enter the draft 2 years early and be a 5th round pick? That's stupid if he does. If Zettel has plenty room to grow, then why is he still undersized as a redshirt senior? It has taken him 5 years to get to 280, and he put on about 15-20lbs this offseason. You don't need to be 300 to play DL, but there's no reason to believe Fangio would desire a DL this small.

For one, his play on the field. For two, his NFL traits.

Guys with his size, athleticism and the ability to make every throw from every conceivable platform do not last until the 6th round. It's simple common sense.

dude if you know so much make your own and he is still a kid

why would you stay two years at a program that isn't going anywhere for one and two fuller is done for the year so this is his best chance to shine maybe by the end of the year he will have a better grade its a mid season mock

It's proven year in and year out. The evidence is Damning whether you chose to accept it or not. Guys like Flacco Mallet & Tannehill are as "credible" as it gets and that's just the short list

Just. Stop. If you can't handle the criticism of your mocks then do some more homework on player projections before projecting them. Trying to defend every pick tooth and nail is silly.

Take a look around the net at some credible mocks sites. Use those for a baseline for round protections. It's better then pissing in the wind.

at least rawdog had creditable debate however you cant even provide a link just a opinion that you fail to admit that is silly for real.

Because you fail at looking at his overall skill set and how similar players have been taken much earlier then your silly 6th round protection. It won't happen. Why do need a link when the evidence is Damning? Go ahead, feel free to do some homework on the subject at hand. I don't need to fish for links for you. I already know better. As does everybody else in this thread.

You've already attempted to change your argument. Silly is right
