I'm bored mock....
Players based on us having #6 pick, and based on
2016 NFL Draft - CBSSports.com - NFLDraftScout.com
Also, they have Jared Goff #6 but I know we're not taking a QB that high (if at all, fairly certain we land Manzel), so I'm not taking him there.
First:
Jaylon Smith, OLB, Notre Dame
STRENGTHS: He is a greased up athlete with natural twitch and flexibility, showing balance, burst and excellent speed in pursuit. Scouts are enthralled with Smith's explosiveness and it isn't difficult to understand why.
He reads plays quickly and keeps his eyes glued on the ball to collect himself in space and burst toward the ballcarrier with excellent closing speed. Shows tremendous secondary quickness to unhook himself from blocks and make up ground in a flash.
He might be the nation's most forceful tackler, generating incredible power to knock ballcarriers back. Smith is every bit as fast and fluid as he is powerful, however, slipping by (or leaping over) would-be blockers in the running game and dropping effectively in coverage.
It is the ability to play back in coverage and rush the passer that makes Smith such an exciting prospect, as proponents of the 4-3 and 3-4, alike, will see him as a true three down defender.
WEAKNESSES: Smith lacks elite take-on strength for the position and can be late to stack-and-shed.
IN OUR VIEW: In today's ultra-specialized NFL, defenses routinely substitute powerful linebackers on running downs and faster, more agile defenders on obvious passing plays. Teams won't have to swap Smith out, however. Along with injured UCLA outside linebacker Myles Jack (also a projected top 10 pick), Smith is the most versatile and pro-ready linebacker in the country.
--Dane Brugler & Rob Rang (11/29/15)
Player Overview
Smith will almost surely earn the highest selection of a Notre Dame defender since the San Francisco 49ers made defensive tackle Bryant Young the No. 7 overall pick of the 1994 draft.
A player who Irish coach Brian Kelly said is the best he's ever coached, Smith is a freakish athlete who makes plays on the football field that few others at the college level are capable of making. He has the range, instincts and competitive drive that makes him a highly sought after NFL prospect.
Notre Dame's top tackler from 2014, Smith made most of the defensive calls as a true sophomore and separated himself as one of the top NFL prospects in the country.
Second:
Jayron Kearse, SS, Clemson
STRENGTHS: Bigger than most wide receivers, but while tall, he is still filling out his lanky frame and adding bulk to his 6-foot-4 body type. Has shown freakish speed to go along with a knack for turnovers and explosive hitting ability throughout his collegiate career.
WEAKNESSES: Needs to eliminate the wasted steps and play with more control.
IN OUR VIEW: Kearse's athletic range, ballskills and physical nature are why scouts are excited about his potential.
--Dane Brugler/Rob Rang (11/9/15)
Player Overview
Kearse finished third on the team in tackles (60), second in passes defended (seven) and tied for first in interceptions (two) for the Tigers in 2014. He worked his way into the starting lineup as a true freshman in 2013 before becoming a full-time starter in 2014.
Kearse is the cousin of former NFL defensive back Phillip Buchanon and nephew of former NFL pass rusher Jevon Kearse.
Third
Jalen Reeves-Maybin, OLB, Tennessee
Reeves-Maybin displays good range and football IQ to put himself in position to make plays. One Tennessee coach told me back in the spring that Reeves-Maybin wasn't just an impactful performer on the field, but also his presence in the locker room as a leader and example for the rest of the team.
--Dane Brugler (9/15/15)
Fourth
Aaron Green, RB, TCU
STRENGTHS: Does make defenders miss with his video game-like cuts and vision, making quick reads and reacting with his feet to keep defenders off balance. Determined and focused runner, taking advantage of each touch with terrific instincts in space. Green also showed he could be a reliable pass catcher with 19 receptions for 166 yards and two touchdowns in 2014.
WEAKNESSES: Doesn't have an ideal frame and lacks a power element to his run style to consistently break tackles. Lacks ideal long speed.
IN OUR VIEW: He has his limitations, but Green could be one of the top five senior prospects at his position in the 2016 class.
--Dane Brugler (5/28/15)
Player Overview
A transfer from Nebraska, Green was part of a crowded backfield in 2014, but cream rises to the top and he earned added playing time, leading TCU with 922 rushing yards and 7.1 yards per carry.
Fifth Round
Nate Sudfeld, QB, Indiana
STRENGTHS: He certainly passes the eye test, both on the sideline and taking snaps with his set-up and delivery.
WEAKNESSES: Sudfeld needs to improve his decision-making, especially once his eyes move from his initial progression. The area scouts need to see the most improvement is simply consistency.
IN OUR VIEW: Indiana loses its three top receivers from 2014, who accounted for 58 percent of the team's receptions in 2015, so Sudfeld has his work cut out for him in 2015, but consistency, not gaudy production, is the key for the quarterback boosting his draft stock.
--Dane Brugler (9/5/15)
Player Overview
The Big Ten has several quarterback prospects who will intrigue NFL teams this fall. Penn State's Christian Hackenberg, Michigan State's Connor Cook and Ohio State's Cardale Jones are the most recognizable names, but Indiana's Sudfeld is one of the better senior prospects at his position for the 2016 class.
He shared the quarterback duties his first two seasons for the Hoosiers and then in 2014, Sudfeld was lost for the season in October with a shoulder injury.
Ok I'm bored now and anyways guys this late in our drafts never amount to shit so sixth round blah blah from blah blah school seventh round ezekial elliiott because he murdered someone predraft but jerry don't care.
