The following is what I think is going to happen during draft weekend..not what I want, what I THINK...
1) I have eliminated David DeCastro from the equation..it is my understanding that DeCastro is not part of the plan at 14..on top of that, the team doesnt even anticipate him being available.
2) A small trade up to get our guy in round 1 is NOT out of the realm of possibility..I think we can expect this team to be aggressive this weekend..similarly to how aggressive we were in FA..this team is going to make a push
3) Trading 2013 draft picks is more likely than trading 2012 draft picks...If we are going to deal 2012 picks, dont expect them to include anything before round 4..again, this team is making a push..we need all the picks we can get this year
Now on to my mock draft
14) Mark Barron S Alabama - I think this guy is hands down the guy we are targeting. I think this team does like Fletcher Cox, however, as many of us already anticipate, Cox will not be available. I would not be shocked whatsoever if we move up 2-3 picks to ensure we get Barron. While I would not be shocked, my gut feeling tells me that it wont be necessary and Barron will be available at 14.
Late 1st rounder/Early 2nd) Peter Konz C Wisconsin - Clearly, I have us moving up from 45. I am not going to sit here and pretend that I know where we are going to pick, heck, I cant even tell you who we are going to pick here. However, as I mentioned earlier, this team is going to be aggressive this weekend and a trade up in my opinion is likely. If we do trade up from 14 to ensure that we land Barron, I think it does hinder our ability to move up here. In this instance, I do not have us moving up from 14, thus, I have us moving up here. If I had to guess, I would say we trade a 2012 2nd rounder or 3rd rounder to get in this territory. I chose Peter Konz for the sake of this mock because this is by far the teams biggest weakness and it was reported very early in the process that Billy C liked Konz. There are a ton of other players that could fall in this area that we have a high grade on that could also be the pick here. I would not count out Dontari Poe.
81) Jamell Fleming CB Oklahoma - We continue the overhaul in the secondary, I completely believe that Jenkins is on his way out and Fleming has the ability to be a starter down the road.
113) Ryan Broyles WR Oklahoma - This is a Garrett kind of guy. I just hope this guy can come in and contribute this season.
stopping here because at this point, its a complete crap shoot
