Jaguars Seven-Round Mock Draft Thread

The Recent FanPosts page is completely cluttered with mock drafts of all kinds by many different people (many of them are by one person, but I digress).  This post's purpose is to be a gathering point for ALL your Jaguars seven-round mock drafts. 

As of this moment, the Jaguars appear to be picking as follows:

1st round (16)

2nd round (49)

3rd round (80)

4th round (113)

4th round (120)

5th round (144)

6th round (177)

7th round (near 230; pick is from Green Bay in the Anthony Smith deal.  Not certain yet if the Jaguars will receive this pick)

Please keep in mind that the 4th through 7th round picks will move backwards based on compensatory draft picks awarded.  These are usually awarded in late March, so we won't know what they are for a while.

The Jaguars did NOT receive a pick from Cincinnati in the Reggie Nelson trade; Nelson did not meet the criteria necessary for the Jaguars to obtain the pick.

 

Anyway, post your Jaguars mocks in here and comment on others' mocks in here as well, and let's try to keep the Recent FanPosts section from getting too cluttered.  SB Nation is perfect for threads like these because your posts won't be lost in the thread; people usually navigate around the threads by pressing Z to move between unread posts.  If you guys want to keep this visible, rec the thread to keep it in the Recommended FanPosts section.  Anyways...post away!

 

As a side note, I will be creating posts for a Big Cat Country community mock draft of the first round, and potentially through the Jaguars' pick in the second if people like it enough.  The way this would work is that everyone on here would vote for who they think the Panthers will pick, then the Broncos, etc., filling in the picks one at a time over a couple months.  I was planning on starting this after the NFL Combine, but if people are itching to get going we can start it earlier; we likely wouldn't reach the Jaguars' pick until after the Combine anyway, but Combine performance might change the 15 picks in front of Jacksonville by that point.  Anyway, please vote in the poll to let me know when/if you'd like to do the community mock.  Thanks!

this one here is purely one for fun- doubt it happens

1st round: Julio Jones: Why not go for a 6’4 WR who could very well be a #1 in the NFL
2nd round: Rahim Moore: the guy could fall to the second round at our pick, and he is quite good from what i hear
3rd round: Andy Dalton: If the draft was today, 3rd round sounds like the place Dalton would go
4th round: Greg Romeus: If this guy stays healthy, he could eb a real steal in the 4th round
4th round: Chimdi Chekwa: Need some CB to come in and compete for playing time
5th round: Owen Marecic: I expletive love this guy. I think the possibilities with him are great, a FB/LB in college, he could do many things for this team, and I think he can very well be there in the 5th round
6th round: John Moffitt: Solid late round pick who can probably help our interior line
7th round: Tank Carder: I think he could fall, and this guy is just a beast of a guy to pick up in the final round fo the draft

Carder played in a BCS game. Jennings really only fell because he played against inferior competition. Carder did not.

That generalization makes zero sense

Saying quarterbacks from a certain school are never good makes no sense. All the other Florida State quarterbacks are not the same person as Christian Ponder. In fact, most of the past guys had Bobby Bowden as a head coach; Ponder played last year under Fisher. Oklahoma quarterbacks are never good, but I’m sure you’d love to have Sam Bradford.

now for my more realisitc mock draft assuming no trades

1st round: Ryan Kerrigan: I see little reason not to like this guy, and to be frankly honest, I will be a bit suprised to see him at 16, although I could see why he will be there for us to pick. He seems like a Gene Smith type of guy
2nd round: Casey Matthews: he has the talent, and he has the pedigree. If he is 1/3 of Clay, I still think he would be worth the pick in the second round
3rd round: Andy Dalton: As mentioned in my earlier post, I see no reason to have him going higher than 3rd round as of yet, although he likely will be higher. If he does end up higher, keep this the way it is and put in Pat Devlin at the pick
4th round: Robert Sands: I feel like he falls into the 4th, and I see no reason not to take him, even in the third round
4th round: Tim Barnes: Meester ain’t young is all I need to say to explain this pick
5th round: Chimdi Chekwa: He gets no love, and so I think he falls to the 5th, The way I see it, I feel like he could be a late 3rd to mid 4th round guy, but he falls and we get him to come in and compete at the CB position
6th round:Owen Marecic: I legitimately have a man crush on him(along with Ryan Kerrigan, although for different reasons). The versatility of Marecic at Stanford, playing FB and LB makes me salivate in terms of how he theoretically could be utilized in the future. It is a late round pick, and so given the potential of how he could be used, I think he is worth a look
7th round: Scott Tolzien: He is not going to fall to the 7th round in all likelihood, but the overall point I am making with the pick, is to look for a 7th round developmental guy, preferably a guy who falls purely due to the depth of the draft at the QB spot

Do you really think the GM who prefers Seniors with consistant production

will take a RS Sophomore with one healthy year? The only Junior he’s taken was Eben Britton who was RS Junior and he was a three year starter.

Sash is also a Junior.

by rws591 on Jan 21, 2011 5:40 PM EST up reply actions  

Two years isn't long enough to say he "prefers Seniors with consistent production"

It’s only been two drafts. We don’t know what he’s going to pick. He’ll likely take the best player there, and there’s a decent chance Aldon Smith is the best player the Jaguars can get at 16. Perhaps the reason he’s gone for mostly “singles” thus far is because he was starting with a trash roster, and now that he’s got a solid base of players he’s ready to take a few swings at the fences.

Two years is plenty long enough

he may still take a RS Sophmore, but it’s unlikely. The point is he won’t likely think Aldon Smith is the the best player. You can score on singles too and this roster defensively still has soooo many holes. A first round bust would be detrimental to this team. We need someone who can come in a start right away, something I don’t think Aldon Smith can do.

by rws591 on Jan 22, 2011 10:10 AM EST up reply actions  

So what? He’s drafted underclassman before.

Do people not realize he was part of the draft process in 03-08, that drafted a plethora of underclassmen?

I guess I should add “he only drafts seniors” to the ridiculousness of “he’s not a Gene guy.”

by Alfie Crow on Jan 22, 2011 8:35 AM EST via mobile up reply actions  

Ever think he learned from that?

So far he mostly drafted senior, passing on the flashy underclassmen of JPP, Bryant, Crabtree, and the likes. He’s said he made mistakes too in the Shack Harrisand has learned from those mistake. It appears he thinks that drafting mostly underclassmen was a mistake, at least so long as your team has more gapping holes than solid spots.

You have always wanted to say the notion of a “Gene Smith guy” is ridiculous, but it’s true. He wants a high character team, so expect him to draft that way.

by rws591 on Jan 22, 2011 10:16 AM EST up reply actions  

You qualified two things at the same time
“Flashy underclassmen”

This is a logical fallacy; you are simultaneously telling us he passed on two qualities, but you have no idea which of the two, if either, if the quality that caused him to pass on the players.

Pierre-Paul could’ve easily been passed on because he didn’t produce at the college level (only 6 sacks in 2009). He could’ve easily been passed on because he literally had never played football until his junior year of high school. He could’ve easily been passed on because he didn’t play nearly as strong as he tested and seemed like a finesse player.

Crabtree and Bryant had me-first diva personalities that didn’t mesh with what Gene Smith wanted in this football team. Them being underclassmen seems to be irrelevant given their personalities.

You’ve basically provided zero evidence that he doesn’t like underclassmen. His selection of Eben Britton in the second round of the 2009 draft says to me that he in fact has no problem with underclassmen as long as their fit the profile of what he feels a Jaguar player should be. Smith has no known character concerns; it’ll be about his play on the field.

The qualities going hand in hand

Flashiness is something I believe causes players to be over drafted. It could be for one of many reasons, but the majority of a time what I would consider a flashy player is one of those guys that is said to have mouth watering “potential.” Its my opinion that what most people consider potential is simply athleticism. T

hen Bryant and Crabtree obviously had character concerns, but were both good players in college. Without character concerns I can see Gene Smith drafting those players, though I’m not sure he sees value in a first round WR. It seems to me that any of the Juniors who have had good production at the college level for more than just one year will have already been taken, like Patrick Peterson.

In my view Gene Smith is trying to apply a lot the values that Bill Parcells wanted to see in QBs to his whole roster.

Aldon Smith is one of those players that everyone harps on their “potential.” He hasn’t had much production due to only being a Sophomore and being injured this season. With DEs having such a high bust rate, Id rather see a player with a more complete repertoire.

by rws591 on Jan 23, 2011 11:08 AM EST up reply actions  

I agreed with everything you said up to the final paragraph

Smith DID have “much production”. He played 23 games at Missouri and had 29 tackles for loss and 17 sacks. That’s extremely productive.

Also, all the stuff you said earlier that I agree with has nothing to do with Smith being a sophomore; honestly, none of it even applies to Smith at all. I agree that Gene will likely avoid “flashy” players without much production, but doesn’t apply to Smith. He’ll also likely avoid guys with “character concerns”, but again that doesn’t apply to Smith.

He of a similar mold as Derrick Harvey.

He weighs less than Harvey did coming out of UF, but he is a red shirt sophomore who has only been playing football for a couple of years. He had a great freshman year, and is an “athletic freak.” Everything I have read about him makes me think of everything people were saying about Derrick Harvey in 2008. The only difference would be that we wouldn’t be trading away the whole draft to get Smith. I prefer to see production, progression, and sustained success in a first round draft pick. And supposing Kerrigan and Smith are both available at 16, I would much rather take Kerrigan, who has experience and 2 seasons of consistent results to look at.

by packerman on Jan 22, 2011 5:17 PM EST up reply actions  

Derrick Harvey was always thought to not have "elite explosion"

which is a necessary quality of a great pass-rusher. Smith is a lot more explosive (gets off the ball quickly, closes ground quickly) than Derrick Harvey was. Smith had plenty of production; he played 23 games at the college level and had 29 tackles for loss and 17 sacks. I like Kerrigan more than Smith myself as well, but it’s not a very big difference at all. Harvey and Smith are really not very similar at all. Harvey is more similar to Adrian Clayborn, in my opinion.

I see where you're going with Aldon Smith, but...

He’s pretty clearly a tweener. He’s incredibly shifty and has great pass rush skills, but he’d get absolutely owned as a DE in the run game. He never overpowers his blocker, he just moves really well, and in the NFL, everyone moves well.
He’s an excellent pass rusher though. He can turn the corner like nobody’s business. Somebody’s gonna fall in love with him and take him in the teens.

most people probably think I’m being unrealistic thinking Amukamra is going to drop, the history of big “slow” corners disagrees with them, but I think it’s more wishful that Dalton would be there at our pick in the second.

Yah he looked awesome

when he got taken to school by Blackmon. I think comparing him and Peterson as of similar talent is silly, like with Suh and McCoy last year. Peterson is significantly better out of the two.

Prince has got to be in a team that runs primarily a lot of zone otherwise he’s going to get burned by elite WRs.

Probably 3 starters

in Amukamara, Jarrett, and Irving. Andy Dalton hopefully develops into the QB of the future. Romeus could battle back from his injury and become a future stud at RDE across from Lane supposing he develops. Greg Salas is a guy I really like, he’s got a big body and good YAC potential.

yes!

In all hopefulness, we would get the Prince at 16…just not likely, and Gene won’t trade up.

However, Gene might trade back, giving us additional picks.

This is a 4-round draft. I want to make it as fun as possible, without just randomly adding someone into to much-later picks. We trade back to 32 from 16…and get (obviously 32), 64, and 160(5th rounder).

1.) 32* Christian Ponder(QB FSU)- proven leader, and can make others around him try harder. OR Cameron Jordan( DE Cal). I know it’s kinda ironic drafting a player from Cal, right after we did last year…but we did it with Mojo and Marcedes! If we were to move to a 3-4, he’d be great. OR Von MillerT A&M OLB)(if we move to 3-4)

2.) 48* Rodney Hudson(OG FSU)- Just doesn’t make mistakes and allow sacks. If he’s too small at guard, then put him at Center! He’s definitely good enough to make the transition to that position of need.

3.) 64* If we are lucky, Herzlich(BC OLB)will drop because of his health. Guy is a great person, and a play-maker. We also need a linebacker.

3.) 80* Shiloh Keo safety from Idaho. Man makes plays….may not be the fastest, but he always finds a way to be in the right place at the right time. Like Polamalu!

4.) 112* Randall Cobb WR/RB from Kentucky He’s also a play-maker, and seems like a Mike Thomas-type. He can do reverses, be a running back, and might even stretch the field. We need play-makers.

4.) 121* Steve Wisienewski( Center PSU) as a Center, he should probably drop to us here. A position of need. I do believe Hudson(despite size) can eventually replace Manuwai.

Here is how I see it

1st round (16) Justin Houston- DE- Don’t start with the tweener/olb crap, he’s the same size as Kerrigan, (give or take an inch) but a better athlete. I would have no issue with Kerrigan but I would perfer Houston (Prince is a no-brainer if he falls)

2nd round (49) Casey Matthews- LB- Probably the best all-around LB in the draft (If Smith is still here, they have to take him instead)

3rd round (80) Andy Dalton-QB- QB of the future, hopefully Garrard will be consistent enough to keep him on the bench for at least a year (If I would have done this yesterday this pick would have been Stanzi)

4th round (113) Robert Sands-FS- I think he will fall because of the weak safety class, after Moore and Williams go not many will be looking at safety anymore

4th round (120) Curtis Marsh-CB- Reminds me a lot of Derek Cox, all of the CBs in the draft cause him to fall

5th round (144) Chris Carter-OLB- We need all the linebacker help we can get

6th round (177) Chimdi Chekwa-CB- STEAL!! lol.. He’s going to fall because of the CBs and the fact that he won’t run a 4’2 at the combine

7th round (230-ish?) Lester Jean-WR- Add another developmental weapon (Btw idk if its a certainty that MSW is gone next yr)

Honestly I’d like the Jags to try and trade back and gain more picks. Also I would like to see them trade Mathis for a pick, he still wants a new contract and is not gonna get it, trade him before he becomes a problem.

Highly doubt Dalton and Sands are available where you had the Jaguars taking them.

Honestly if that are that high on him..

then I’d rather see them just pick him at 16, I would rather see them “reach” for someone they really like then miss out because of their 2nd round spot

by Sylvester.The.Jaguar.fan on Jan 23, 2011 9:05 PM EST up reply actions  

If they like him, say, 25th,

picking him at 16 would be stupid. This team has more needs than simply QB. Trading up would only occur if he was still on the board and he was slipping; they can’t travel to the future to their 2nd-round pick and see Dalton being gone by then. To pick him at 16 would be a paranoid move at best.

The votes are pretty close in the poll

With starting sooner leading by 7% at the time of this post. We are at least waiting until after the Senior Bowl to start the community mock, but given the likely lack of movement among the very top prospects, I don’t think there’s any reason we can’t start it after the Senior Bowl.

First of all

it would only be libel on my part if I knew it wasn’t true. I don’t care enough to go digging to find more credible sources.

I have also heard rumors of the coke issue and other character concerns dating back to before last year’s draft. It could just be rumors, but why make up a rumor for no reason?

Even if it isn’t true, the kid sounds like a complete idiot. I’d prefer not to go down the road of having one of the lesser intelligent QBs in the league

a different looking mock IMO although one I really would like to see happen

2)Mark Herzlich- I am slowly realizing that this guy will in all likelihood be the real deal
3)Ahmad Black- was watching tape of him, and this guy is just a beast at being near the ball on almost every play(this might be too high- i could see his height dropping his draft stock)
4)Collin Kapernick- from wht i gather he is looking quite good at the Senior Bowl, and even before that he has fascinated me as a prospect with his speed and arm
4)Tim Barnes- a young body to follow Meester at C
5)Chimdi Chekwa- he will fall, I can almost guarantee that, and Jags just cannot pass on a guy like that this late
6)Ricki Stanzi- to be hinest I am not certain he falls to the 6th the way things are going, but bringing in a 2nd QB makes too much sense in my opinion
7) Zack Hurd- similar reasoning to the Barnes pick, this interior O-line is straight out old and could afford to get younger

Ok here's mine...

I worked some hypothetical trades with New Orleans and New England using the value chart. The resulting picks we got (before compensatory picks are awarded) are 24, 33, 80, 92, 124, 144, 156, 177, 248(ish). Here’s who I picked at those spots:

24 Jimmy Smith

80 Andy Dalton
92 Shiloh Keo
124 Austin Pettis
144 Curtis Marsh
156 Brooks Reed
177 Greg McElroy

add in a trade with NE rasean ,mathis and 1 of our 4th for there 26th pick

if ingram is there at 16, trade back with sea, NyG, or saints, or if julio jones is stilll there, i think skill players are the only ones that a mid 20 pick team would trade down for .-ok so say jones is still there, t think chicago would trade down 29 to 16 and we take there 61st pcik as well.
26- pick-Brandon Harris- CB Mia
29-justin houston- DE/OLB=Ga (remember tucker uses a lot of 3-4( think we will end up with him or von miller,bruce carter types)
49-rahim moore-FS-ucla-or Allen Bailey DE MIA
61-Greg Jones-LB-Msu-or Ras I dowling CB(who can play FS)
***I think we will end up with 3-4 picks in 1st 2 rounds-I think barring a WR or QB to good to pass, we will get a CB, a S, and A DE /OLB, i think we will then ise extra 6th and 4 th to obtain a 2nd 3rd round-
80-Andy Dalton-QB-TCU
88(trade with sea)-Randall Cobb-WR-Kentkucky
112-Ahmad blacl-SS-FL
5th round-Casey Matthews if available-or Noel Devine dwane harris from East carolina-we need a PLAYMAKER-that is why i prefer Cobb, over torrey smith, or pettis.

What would CHI

trade up just to get a receiver? Earl Bennett, Devin Hester, Johnny Knox, and Devin Aromoshodu put up more than sufficient enough numbers. Looking at the list, there’s not a lot of teams below us in real need of a WR that badly. Given that being said, I would not be surprised to see both Green and Jones go b4 our pick after reviewing teams needs ahead of us. The Jags will trade down if they feel there’s something more value in trading down.. and judging by this team’s needs.. there’s not a lot of situations that would warrant a trade down in my mind, unless of course we’re getting some great pick value.. otherwise we probably draft to fill a defensive hole.. probably at DE if I had to guess, depends on who’s left at that position because a lot of teams could be filling the same void

by chronryan on Jan 27, 2011 2:46 PM EST up reply actions  

A trade with New England for Ingram makes zero sense

New England picks 17th (right after us) in the first round. Do you really think they’d be afraid we’d take Ingram? They’d just wait until we pick, then take Ingram at 17.

I would encourage people to avoid trading down in their mocks, as the chances of doing so are probably pretty low. Someone has to want to move up for you to move down, and I don’t think anyone that’ll be available at 16 is someone another team will want to move up for.

NE picks 26th and 33.didnt say they trade for ingram

i think NE only major concern is there secondary, and with them having 2 picks in each of the first 3 rounds, it makes since for them to use some to trade for a guy like rashean mathis. I wrote that i could see something like NE trading there 26th or 33rd pick for Mathis and a 4th round pick from us, If we could do that we should, and then have 2 picks in the first 33, then we could go DE, and CB if we had 16 and 33 , Kerrigan, and rahim moore. To me both teams would benifit from a trade like that, NE would be giving up a late 1st, and gaining a 4th for a proven CB, that wont need to develop. NE and IND windows are closing

not knowing whether or not the Jags will do anything via free agency or even re-sign MSW, which could have a slight impact on draft day, but as of right now this is what I got:

At this point

it seems that a handful of picks are set in terms of how high players will go. The following players are, I believe, 99% certain to be gone by pick 16:

Blaine Gabbert, QB, Missouri
A. J. Green, WR, Georgia
Nick Fairley, DT, Auburn
Marcell Dareus, DT/DE, Alabama
Da’Quan Bowers, DE, Clemson
Von Miller, OLB, Texas A&M
Patrick Peterson, DB, LSU
Prince Amukamara, CB, Nebraska

That leaves only seven picks in question before 16 rolls around. I’d also expect Julio Jones to be gone by 16. Anyway, I’d mock the first 16 picks as follows:

1. Carolina – Nick Fairley, DT, Auburn
2. Denver – Patrick Peterson, DB, LSU
3. Buffalo – Da’Quan Bowers, DE/OLB, Clemson
4. Cincinnati – A. J. Green, WR, Georgia
5. Arizona – Von Miller, OLB, Texas A&M
6. Cleveland – Marcell Dareus, DE, Alabama
7. San Francisco – Prince Amukamara, CB, Nebraska
8. Tennessee – Akeem Ayers, LB, UCLA
9. Dallas – Cameron Jordan, DE, California
10. Washington – Blaine Gabbert, QB, Missouri
11. Houston – Robert Quinn, DE/OLB, North Carolina
12. Minnesota – Aldon Smith, DE, Missouri
13. Detroit – Nate Solder, OT, Colorado
14. St. Louis – Julio Jones, WR, Alabama
15. Miami – Mark Ingram, RB, Alabama
16. Jacksonville – ??????

Kerrigan? Newton? Locker? Clayborn? Other? Pick someone!

I think Locker will be gone to San Fran

Harbaugh won’t get a shot at him later and now is the perfect time to take a QB, because he’s yet to be on the hot seat. I also don’t think that only one QB is taken in the Top 15. True, this is a very raw class, but MANY teams need QBs and te Top 4 likely won’t be around t he next time they’re picking. Buffalo, Cincy, Arizona, San Fran, Tennessee, Washington, Minnesota, and Miami all have QB needs and 3 have a new head coach.

Now that I haven’t answered you questions, I will. I want to trade down, if no one is calling, then it’s likely between Locker, J. Smith, and Greg Jones. If this is how the draft turns out, I’d call the equivalent of getting royally screwed. This is how I see it turning out:

Carolina: Nick Fairley | DT | Auburn
-This will be defensive lineman Rivera likes the best
Denver: Patrick Peterson | CB | LSU
-Whether or not Champ is back, the need and value are there
Buffalo: Da’Quan Bowers | OLB | Clemson
-BAP and a need
Cincinnati: Cam Newton | QB | Auburn
-They’ll have to replace Palmer
Arizona: Blaine Gabbert | QB | Missouri
-You can’t expect to strike Gold with Kurt Warners in FA more than once
Cleveland: A.J. Green | WR | Georgia
-Colt is counting his blessings
San Francisco: Jake Locker | QB | Washington
-If Jim wants him, he’ll have to take him here
Tennessee: Ryan Mallett | QB | Arkansas
-From one extreme to another
Dallas: Marcelll Dareus | DE | Alabama
-BAP and a need
Washington: Cameron Jordan | DE | Call
-I feel bad for Skins fans, what’s to look forward to with that owner?
Houston: Stephen Paea | NT | Oregon State
-Phillips petitions for a NT in the mold of Ratliff for Houstons new 34 D
Minnesota: Robert Quinn | DE | UNC
-Bye Bye Edward, hello Quinn
Detriot: Von Miller | OLB | Texas A&M
-Huge need, great player
St. Louis: Julio Jones | WR | Alabama
-Much like Colt, Sam is counting his blessings
Miami: Mark Ingram | RB | Alabama
-Need new blood
Jacksonville: Prince Amukamara | CB | Nebraska
-No brainer if he’s there

so if Kerrigan is really not looking so good against the good prosepcts, he is a sure no at 16

Newton and Locker would be otpions although I think they both are gone at 16(Gabbert earlier than you have, Minn and Wash go QB)

I think you gotta look defensive

Whether it be a defensive end, linebacker, or possibly cornerback depending on what’s available. This defense needs to get better. Given a lot of teams could be in the same boat as us, it could make getting one of the elite prospects at their position a little more difficult..

i think one of those teams will end up with Mcnabb, and 1 will get Kolb. but but i think maybe locker survives to 16th pick, but probably not, i actually could see even the dolphins getting newton or locker if they fall

Yes.

I can very much see it. Orton could end up on one of those teams as well. Also, Arizona, San Francisco, and Tennessee select in picks where Gabbert is really the only QB worth taking; it’s a matter of if they want him. I expect them all to pass because there are elite defensive prospects available, but the best QB in this draft really isn’t an elite guy.

With Fisher out

I think theres a possibility that Locker goes to the Tits at #8

Mike Pouncey's brother has literally nothing to do with him

Nothing. At all. We do need a center, but we don’t need to draft a late 2nd-round player with the 16th overall pick.

There's gotta be better options

at the center position with more value later on if the Jags pursue the position. I don’t see many situations where drafting a center mid first round to any team making much sense

by chronryan on Feb 3, 2011 8:30 PM EST up reply actions  

Pouncey

is a horrable center, i can see him as the pick, but as a guard.

by rhettchrystal on Feb 3, 2011 8:34 PM EST up reply actions  

At 16?

Pouncey is a second-rounder at best. If we pick him at 16 he better be a human babushka doll with a good football player hidden inside a layer of mediocre center.

I like your picks -apart from Pouncey

Even the Pitts Pouncey is overrated according to football outsiders. After careful consideration and internet scouting here’s my players -in rough order – to consider using DraftTek’s top 400.

1st round (16) DE Cameron Jordan, DE Ryan Kerrigan, QB Blaine Gabbert, WR Julio Jones, DE Aldon Smith
2nd round (49) WR Leonard Hankerson, WR Titus Young, CB Jimmy Smith, CB Brandon Harris
3rd round (80) LB Kelvin Sheppard,LB Quan Sturdivant, CB Ras-I Dowling, DT Phil Taylor
4th round (113) OG Danny Watkins, QB Colin Kaepernick, LB Nate Irving, WR Austin Pettis
4th round (120) CB Kendric Burney, CB Rashard Carmichael, CB Korey Lindsay,
5th round (144) CB Justin Rodgers, DE Pernell McPhee,
6th round (177) QB Tyrod Taylor, LB Lawrence Wilson, S Deunta Williams, LB Russ Homan, C Kevin Kowalski
7th round (near 230) QB Nathan Enderle, CB Da’norris Searcy, LB Bruce Miller, OG Lee Ziemba, S Will Hill

Invite to training camp WR Dane Sanzenbacher, S Mark Legree, LB Scott Lutrus,WR Niles Paul, OG Stephen Schilling, OT Jah Reid

What could of happened; did.

One without Prince

1) Akeem Ayers | OLB | UCLA
-Rawish player who will be able to come in and contribute right away, but has a high ceiling. I can see him being a lot like Marcedes and contribute early, but take a while to be a star.

2) Rahim Moore | FS | UCLA
-With Rahim and Akeem we’d have two new starters for our defense, hopefully they’d become studs like MJD and Marcedes on offense.

3) Ras-I Dowling | CB | Virginia
-A player who had first round potential, but couldn’t stay healthy for his senior campaign. I could be wrong, but I believe Gene has taken a couple of guys who were hurt their senior year, thus drop. If not, he does take the BAP and Dowling could easily be that.

4) Pat Devlin | QB | Delaware
-He certainly didn’t help himself in the Shrine Bowl, but this may help us get him for a steal. The more I think about, the later I begin to think we’ll take a QB. We need defense now and every QB in this draft is a developmental one(though which QBs weren’t). The later you take a QB the less pressure is on him, and the less pressure you are to take a QB higher the next year. Ala David Garrard and Byron Leftwhich.

4) Greg Romeus | DE | Pittsburgh
-A player with potential like Dowling, but also hurt by injuries in his senior season. These four defensive players could become studs.

5) Ricky Stanzi | QB | Iowa
-Two developmental QBs, hopefully one works out quickly. It’s time for another Tom Brady to happen, but in Teal.

6) Justin Rogers | CB | Richmond
-Gene likes to throw picks and problems.

7) Stephen Burton | WR | West Texas A&M
-Great production after being a JUCO transfer.

Here's mine using Drafttek's recent CMD

1) Jake Locker, QB/Washington
2) Curtis Brown, CB/Texas
3) John Moffitt, OG-C/Wisconsin
4) Rahim Moore, FS/UCLA
4) Pernell McPhee, DE/Mississippi State
5) Curis Marsh, CB/Utah State
6) Chris Carter, OLB/Fresno State
7) Will Rackley, OG/Lehigh

Largely a defensive draft, but it definitely addresses everything that are major issues with the team. Almost went with Hankerson like the original draft had us taking, but I really liked Brown in that spot.
