Jags Mock FA and Draft

Some things have changed since I last posted including a new coaching staff and some All-Star Games. So I decided to do another Mock.

FA

Dwayne Bowe 5 years 35 million- Bowe is a number 1 guy and stating the obvious something the Jags need. He is big, runs good routes, and can catch very well.

Demetrius Bell 5 years 25 million- Bell is very talented and has the athletic genes being the son of Karl Malone. He would be OT with Britton playing guard. He is also 27 years old and would solidify the line for years to come.

Eddie Royal- 4 years 19 million- Royal had a huge two first seasons, but his stats have declined since Tebow took over. Royal would be a great addition to this reciever core and would also be a plus in the return game.

Chris Redman 2 years 4 million- Redman knows the system of Mularkey and is a good help for Blaine.

Aaron Ross 4 years 16 million- Ross is a very good corner that would start opposite of Cox next year. He has played good for the Giants this year.

Calais Campbell 5 years 25 million- Campbell tallied 8 sacks this year and is vastly underrated. He would a force at DE next year.

Resign- Douzable, Middleton, Lowery, Lewis, Robiskie, Scobee, Allen

Draft

1st Round- Quentin Coples DE UNC- Coples has greatly impressed me this week at the Senior Bowl and seems like a very viable option at DE. He would come in and start across from Campbell. D-Line is a very big key to a teams success and when we have Coples and Campbell coming off the edge this would do wonders for our defense. Many people have said Coples didn't have a dominate senior year and therefore shouldnt be drafted at 7 but, he did play inside a lot at DT which didn't fit him well. He has elite size and speed running around a 4.7 for his 6-6 281 frame is impressive.

Star-divide

2nd Round- Chase Minnifield CB Virginia- The senior DB from Virginia is a ballhawk corner who was 5th in the country with 6 picks. The favorite thing about Minnifield I have is that he is a very good open field tackler in that he wraps up the ballcarrier and drives his hips. He excels in man to man coverage locking up the top wideout from the other team up the entire game. I see him rotating with Ross and Cox and playing nickel.

3rd Round- Tommy Streeter WR Miami- Streeter is one of my favorite prospects in the entire draft with his size to speed ratio. He is 6'5 215 and runs a high 4.4. Tommy is a deep threat and has good hands going down the field. He knows how to use his large frame against opposing CBs and wins alot of jump balls. Streeter, Bowe, Royal, Thomas, Dilliard, Price, Shorts, Robiskie will be a VERY improved WR core for the Jags in 2012.

4th Round- Audie Cole ILB NC State- Cole would come in and be the obvious backup to Poz. He is an above average blizter and run defender. The thing that hurts Cole is his coverage skills are somewhat lacking. He would be great on 1+2 second down run situations though and he is a great tackler. In the 4th that would be a great pickup.

5th Round- Ronnie Hillman RB SDSU- Hillman had an outstanding freshman season and backed that up with another good sophmore season averaging 5.5 yards a carry and scored 19 touchdowns. He would be the small, scat back that Karim hasn't been yet and is a very good talent here in the 5th. Hillman displays very good open field moves and is tough between the tackles when he needs to be. He also shows great quickness in and out of his cuts.

6th-Lowery Trade

7th- Sean Powell P FSU- I would say this is a theme for me in my drafts. Powell is a great punter and weapon for a team. Sean can flip a field in one punt. Jag fans have seen how much a good punter is important.

Thats it guys. As usual I will answer all ?s.

6'8

How does size dictate that?

If he got 8 sacks last year albeit playing the 3-4 he does have pass rushing skills. He also can play the run very well by playing the 34 which is his main job. I mean it couldn’t work but, there is no reason it won’t.

not thanks as an option for this defensive line.

It's a crystal ball business

and Coples ceiling is humongous!!! Remember Jason Pierre-Paul? Well, he only had one college season of production and a youtube video full of back-flips to justify him, and the Giants chose him based off his ceiling, and are currently far from regretting it. Well Coples has a higher celing than Pierre-Paul and on top of that, he also has 4 seasons of deceit/great production to justify him.

Not to mention with the new CBA, the price tag for that of a Premium DE is no where near what it use to be, so it’s not like you’re mortgaging your future. I’m not saying Colpes is all that, but I am saying with Coples high ceiling, cheaper CBA price tag, and the imperative need for an every down DE when running a 4-3 Defense, i’m saying we either pick Colpes if he’s available at 7, or trade back and recoup the value.

by youngnixx88788 on Jan 28, 2012 10:45 AM EST reply actions  

The pricetag was something a really liked as he can be a automatic dominant force on D and will not cost alot.

Coples has a Peppers type ceiling something you can’t pass up. Cullen will mold him into a top DE.

Are you comparing Coples and Julius Peppers??

The only thing similar is UNC and 6’6.

Julius Peppers had 17 sacks his sophomore seasons, and played on the basketball team.

Coples has only had 23 sacks in 4 seasons.. Coples is not an elite pass rusher.

Ingram, Mercilus, MAYBE. But Coples is not what we need.

by bdk790 on Jan 28, 2012 11:17 AM EST up reply actions  

No No No

I said he has tha.t type of ceiling. Coples is a complete DE, he might not have gaudy sack numbers but he cab stop the run and get his number of sacks. We have pass rushers such as Chick who we can put in on 3rd and 20

chick as a our elite pass rusher?

we need an elite pass rusher, not Coples. Coples is not an elite pass rusher.

How come Karl Malone's son has a different last name than him?

The Mailman has a bastard child, like Tom Brady?

ugh

You don’t play good. You play well.

Besides Bowe, our WR’s would still be junk. Eddie Royal? Pass.

by jagzman04 on Jan 29, 2012 12:24 AM EST reply actions  

Royal is very good for slot and Streeter is a great deep threat.

Dilliard/Price/Thomas are good for a 4th option. I think this reciever core is way better than last years.

Dillard, Price, Thomas… Shorts, we’re keeping ALL these guys? God help us if we are. Jags need a better upgrade, at least Dillard & Price need to go.

by jagzman04 on Jan 29, 2012 2:19 PM EST up reply actions  

No u let them battle it out in camp.

U keep 2 out of Dilliard Thomas Price Shorts

That's so shortsighted.

I say you upgrade the #1 and #2 spots (the starters) and each of the receivers you named can be role players. They are not as bad as you’re saying they are.

by kjones407 on Jan 29, 2012 3:51 PM EST up reply actions  

Wait

He questioned the WRs and I offered a solution. I think Dilliard Shorts Price Thomas all have talent. I upgraded the one and the 2. I add Streeter as a 3. If it was up to me I would keep them all but I would say 7 would be too many WRs. We could probably keep 6. I think you misunderstood me. I think they all have talent but do we have the numbers to keep them all would be the ?

My response...

was to jagzman04. I agree more with what you’re saying. 7 is too many receivers for one roster. I personally believe we’ll only add two with Thomas, Dillard, Shorts being the third, fourth and fifth receiver. Then Price, Robiskie and West will be competeting for the sixth spot. Most people see us adding an entire new group of receivers with none of the guys from last year returning. Okay, that’s over exaggerating it a bit but it seems, at times, that’s what some want.
