    Carlton Mitchell in the 5th? As his unofficial hype man, I say there is no way he gets past the 3rd round...

      Really? The only OL position I see as dire is C. We have three solid starters in Starks, Kemo, and Colon. I actually like those three guys and I'm comfortable with them starting. We have Legursky, Urbik, Foster and Essex fighting out for that final spot.
      I was thinking that a developmental LT is needed...but that's me. Also Harbor raised an eyebrow because I think he'll go sooner & isn't he more of an H-Back? Tracy is fine too, I just like Moats & Danny Batten a bit more. And Blount...well, we both know that they won't bring him here now, but tell me...his 40 time & slow 10-yard split doesn't scare you any?
      It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust & sweat & blood...

        Nah...I believe Harbor is more of a FB type. You could be right about a developmental LT. Blount's 40 doesn't scare me even a little. I have seen the guy run...beast...man amongst boys. I really like him. And no we wont draft him.

          Okay...I just thought he was slow as molasses getting thru the line. Would you say he's like Brandon from the Giants? Anyway, in lieu of him, what other RB would you bring in & would it change your mock?

            Honestly, the only guys I'm interested in are Gerhart, Blount and Spiller. Fbwise I would be interested in Harbor, and Conner...and that's only if they believe the Summers project was a flop.

            I like Harbor alot. But, I think some of my round placement could be a little wishful. I had lots of guys I like. Harbor could go as high as the 3rd. This is what is said about him...

            An athletic beast who can line up as a fullback, tight end or H-back and create matchup problems for a defense. As a receiver, he set the school record with 150 career catches, and his 1,906 yards rank third in school history. Harbor's 59 catches for 729 yards and four touchdowns in his senior year reflected his ability to get open in zones and stretch the field. His blocking has improved each year, so he can be a significant block-or-catch weapon as an H-back. His explosion was demonstrated at the combine when he soared 40 inches in the vertical jump. And his strength was quantified when he bench-pressed 225 pounds 30 times."

              My 2 cents-

              I don't like the mock- sorry. Pouncey at 18 is just a waste. IMO. Replace your first 2 picks with Haden/Thomas/ Wilson and your 2nd round with say a OT or maybe even Linval Joseph if hes still there. If you really want a C then maybe look at the boy from BC. Personally, I'd be looking at OT in there- maybe 2nd round instead of a C. I like Legursky as our future C. The numbers just don't jive. Too many bodies already on the OL that have experience. A OT would compete with Hills for the last spot and Colon's got some issues- agent wise and wanting more $.

                Haden and Thomas will likely be gone...Wilson has character issues. If you read my precurser you would have seen the reasoning for picking Pouncey. If Haden or Thomas are there...they are no brainers.

                  I disagree on the character issues with Wilson. He's really been moving up the boards and have impressed a lot of scouts- from what I'm reading anyways.

                  It's just me, but I'd take Wilson over Iupati or Pouncey at 18. Just my opinion. Can't wait til Thursday to see what really happens. Watch- we'll all be totally wrong.

                    I think Wilson will be a very good DB...I have heard varying things about his character. With that said, Wilson's side was never thrown to. The #2 Db for Boise was always a young pup. Teams tended to pick on other DBs. Could have been superb respect or we might not know how he really matches up against top notch talent.

                    I think Wilson is on the Steelers radar but I think they roll with Pouncey unless Haden or Thomas are there.
