2012 NFL Mock Draft: Post-Senior Bowl Edition

Honestly this is probably one of the more realistic drafts I’ve seen. The only pick I would really question is Zach Brown to the Pats. I think he’s a little too small to be a 3-4 LB.

But in all this is a really good draft and I wouldn’t mind seeing Coples in teal come April.

this is something different. My favorite part of draft season is seeing the media mocks flipped upside down. LIke you said in the article…I bet the team’s board really doesn’t change as much. Since Gene has taken over; we havent’ drafted a 1st rounder that was usually mocked to us. THAT’s why draft season is fun. You speculate and speculate; then you get something completely different.

this draft looks good for us, because there wasn’t a first round “run” on WR. Our 2nd round pick might make fans happier than our 1st.

Damn he fell hard, lol. I know you don’t think he’s worth a top 10 pick, as many others don’t. Would be interesting to see him fall that far. Anyways, love the Coples pick. He’ll be a stud

And vice versa with Upshaw to Seattle he’s more of a 3-4 OLB to me.
Also Barron at 22 seems a stretch. SS isn’t a premium position basically anyone who is too slow for FS and a decent size can do it.
Chris Polk’s stock is dropping he was droopy at the weigh in.
Cordy Glen ahead of Mike Adams has me puzzled too.
Was it Devon Still who twatted he was “sittin’ on beach thinkin’…” or something. His stock may drop because of it.
Otherwise I like it.
Always had Kendall Wright above Blackmon on my board. Would take Coples over him too.
Even though he’s lazy he’s talented and much more NFL ready than Derrick Harvey.
People are also projecting Cleveland to trade with St Louis and select the same players.

and would help out our team alot more than coples no way we pass on him

I was gun-shy about another DE in the first round, but after seeing tape on Coples and seeing his interviews I think he’d be a solid choice for us.

The real issue is if we draft a DE in the first round, are we drafting a CB in the 2nd? I think need and value might both point in that direction. At least, I can’t see us not picking a CB in rounds 1-3.

Coples>>Blackmon right now. Jags r lucky because they can go DE in free agency or WR in the draft or vice versa.

He played against Guards who shouldn’t have been tackles and then he dominated all week. I guess ill have to believe a mixture of both, that he excelled against those he faced

That’s what I see in Coples, I think he can develop into a great player for the Jags. I ’d like to see him in Jax.

I can’t see the Steelers taking an OLB when they have bigger issues at NT, OG and ILB. They are more likely to take a OT or a C (if they can play OG) than an OLB.

There are usually players in the pipeline at any given position for the Steelers such as Worilds and Carter at OLB and Heyward at DE (though he may start ahead of Hood with the way he has been developing) but they don’t have a starter quality player developing behind Hampton.

There were huge issues with the offensive line last year that were mostly related to injuries but the one position where they needed an upgrade was OG (probably LG).

ILB has two aging vets (Farrior and Foote) sharing time with Timmons but Farrior and Foote are showing their age and it isn’t clear if Sylvester is ready to step up and be a starter (or even a reliable backup).

There are depth problems at a few positions that will need to be addressed. I am not saying the Steelers wouldn’t take an OLB but I would be shocked if they took one before the 4th round.

and take janoris jenkins please
