First off it's good to get back on the board and see a few familiar names. Per my usual it seems I spend more time here in the offseason. Wish we still had one more game to play. Lets get down to the brass tacks. This mock as usual is not necessarily what I think Kevin Colbert will do, but what I would do if I were him. First off.....I think the talent at the back end of this years first round screams trade down. With that I'd like to trade out of the first round with a team in the top 5 of round 2 (Dallas and Tenn would be strong considerations), picking up an extra 3rd rounder in the process. This gives us 4 picks in the top 100. Here we go.
2a) Kendall Fuller-CB-VaTech-Obvious talent meets need value. A strong CB class and a meniscus lets Fuller drop into the top of the second round.
2b) Vernon Butler-DT-LaTech-The DL needs some help. Butler is a disruptive force who could be a rotational player from week 1 and a starter by week 8
3a) Karl Joseph-S-WVU-This kid is one of my favorite players in the draft. Would have been the first Safety picked before he got hurt. Ryan Clark 2.0
3b) Zack Sanchez-CB-Oklahoma-He is a bit on the light side but has a nose for the football and is so gritty. The secondary transformation continues.
4) Cody Kessler-QB-USC-Obvious need to get a kid to develop behind Ben. Landry is not the answer. Kessler could be a McCarron type QB for us.
7) Mike Mathews-C-TAMU-Bloodlines
7) Riley Dixon-P-Syracuse-Please....no more Berry
