Pick's 1 Round Mock

Did GB play Raji at the Nose? I thought he played the 3-4 DE spot for them this year.

They rotated a bit. For the most part, Harrell-Pickett-Jenkins and Raji was thrown in there along with Jolly for whoever needed a rest.

I'm looking at trading up for a FS. For example, imagine the opportunity arose on draft day that had Eric Berry available at #13. Would the Texans be willing to trade our 1st and 2nd round picks for Eric Berry and the 49ers picks in the 4th and 6th rounds? While "giving up" 2 picks, I get 3 in return

Is Earl Thomas gone in this scenario?

[Roy P]

Yes, looking at my Mock draft, Earl Thomas is selected at #13. So, I was imagining trading up for him there. Then if Jacksonville had taken Thomas instead of Berry, that scenario would have Eric Berry available there. Everyone is so convinced that E.B. is a top 3 pick, that it seems ridiculous to consider. However, with teams looking at QBs, OTs, DTs, and Dez Bryant being THE dominant WR, there is a possibility for the FS to slip a bit. After Sean Taylor has shown that he can run a 4.3 in the 40, teams may move him up because of his size. In this scenario, I have the Seahawks taking the guy they coached in college with a familiarity with their system.

So, the question is would it be worth it to trade up for Eric Berry at #13 if the other 2 are off the board? Secondly, would it be worth it if we are talking about Earl Thomas?

Possible mock draft scenario if we traded up with SF at #13.....

1 13 FS Earl Thomas
3 81 RB Ben Tate
4 110 OG Kyle Calloway
4 115 DT Geno Atkins
5 146 LB Jamar Chaney
6 172 DT Linval Joseph
6 177 OG Marshall Newhouse
6 187 CB AJ Jefferson
7 210 RB Lonyae Miller


I think this addresses the needs of the team and is probably close to where they will be going. I may have AJ Jefferson way too low after the Combine, but we will see.

Roy,

If you have Spiller, Wilson and E. Thomas still on the board at 20, do you take Spiller or Thomas; or do you trade down to 25 and hope Wilson is still available?
