I got to a 2nd mock draft this year... allllllllriiiiiiiiiiighhhhhttttttttttttttt
I use the cbssports.com rankings and cannot draft a player ABOVE the number of the pick. For instance, the Bills first pick is #50, so the best prospect I could take would be 50th on the cbssports.com big board. Fair enough? I suppose so.
#50- (Previous pick: Tre Jackson): Staying with Tre Jackson.. Pro style offense, leg drive and can get to 2nd level. Great run fit.. I did consider Maxx Williams
#81- (Previous pick: Josh Shaw): Keeping Josh Shaw still. Too good of a defensive player to pass up especially with Rex.. he has no problem taking questionable guys and getting them to buy in.
#155- (Previous pick 147: Kurtis Drummond.. who moved all the way up to 113th in the rankings).. Markus Golden OLB Missouri. Drummond is gone, I thought about upgrading the safety position or even taking another WR.. but I went with the edge rusher instead. Some questions about his size, but he can get pressure off the edge and is good at getting in passing lanes. A worthwhile gamble this late.
#188- (Previous: 172 Ryan Russell, 178 Sean Mannion). Damian Swann CB Georgia. Another DB, not quite S size, but did play there a tad at Georgia. Great ball skills, plays bigger than his size and impressive in ST coverage.
#194- Nick Boyle, TE, Delaware. Small school, athletic, not quite the grinding, blocking TE that Rex probably wants.. but adds some versatility to a lackluster position.
#234- (Previous: 209 Antwan Goodley) Shane Carden- QB ECU. Worth a flyer late, smart QB with good enough arm strength and prep work.

2015 Seahawks Mock Draft Edition 1
About 3 inches from another Super Bowl, a crushing loss after that Kearse catch.. but that's all I'm doing to reminisce at this point.. time to move forward to the 2015 NFL Draft. As my other mocks: I know that the draft list isn't set yet, so I'll update more later but I am a tad bored right now! Using cbssports.com big board, and I can't draft a player if he's higher than that on the board. #63 is the highest pick I can first make for Seattle since they traded for that Jimmy Graham character. Never heard of him..... have you? Talk radio in WI isn't worried about him as long as they have Aaron Rodgers.. at least, that's the word today. We'll find out when the season starts ;)
#63- Oregon C- Hroniss Grasu. Oh, hey.. guess who Grasu projects to? MAX UNGER. This is such a tempting spot with Funchess, Xavier Cooper, Ty Sambrailo also on the board. A lot has already been made about the.. fragility and skill of Seattle's line last year and they lost Carpenter in FA and Unger in the Graham trade. Might as well start restocking now!
#95- Oregon CB- Ifo Ekpre-Olomu. Call me Chip Kelly, apparently.. getting Oregon guys with the first 2 Seahawks selections. Ifo doesn't have the size the Seahawks love and will miss a bunch of the exhibition season with a knee injury.. so why gamble with their 2nd selection? He's young, he can move, he's great with the ball in the air and has great technique. He isn't as physical as they might like, but in today's NFL, he'd be a great addition to the slot for a team that depends so much on their coverage. I think this is a great pick for the Seahawks, I even passed up a few OL to make this one.
109- Wisconsin OL- Rob Havenstein. Run game struggled last year, Havenstein played OT in college but projects as a mauling G in the NFL. Everybody knows, and I've mentioned about the OL already.. potentially replaced a C and a G or, at least, provided depth for a team that loves to run the football.
127- Nebraska WR- Kenny Bell. Looked at Ty Montgomery and ILB Ben Heeney as well as some OLB, but took a shot with Bell. Bell has good straight line speed, he's a little smaller than a few of their other guys, but he can bring a little bit different dimension to the Seahawks return game as well as cover kicks/punts.
159- Harvard OLB Zach Hodges. Finally getting to work on the front 7, I think they'll draft a LB higher than this, but this was my best find as is. Hodges is from a small school but is a jack of all trades for them, which leaves him a little bit raw. He, however, has the ability to play multiple LB positions and even put his hand on the ground and rush the QB. Sounds like a Seahawks fit to me.
165- Auburn ATH Nick Marshall. Why not? Late pick, already have a CB and trying to add more DB depth. If it doesn't work, it's a 6th rd pick in a trade, so not a big loss. Think he can play CB with his athleticism and size and has some great tutors and a great scheme to work in for development.
223- Iowa DT Louis Trinca-Pasat. Finally a DL for the defense, but not an explosive one. Seattle could use a rotation DT to put in and just grind away and do dirty work until the pass rushers come in. Iowa DL are always extremely high effort, fundamental players. Pasat isn't any different, and could fit into a rotation.
#63- Oregon C- Hroniss Grasu. Oh, hey.. guess who Grasu projects to? MAX UNGER. This is such a tempting spot with Funchess, Xavier Cooper, Ty Sambrailo also on the board. A lot has already been made about the.. fragility and skill of Seattle's line last year and they lost Carpenter in FA and Unger in the Graham trade. Might as well start restocking now!

2015 1st Bills Mock
Apparently I blog about 4 times a year and it happens to be during the NFL draft. I never did finish my mocks last year or even a "what I would have done" follow up after the draft. This year, I am determined to be different, however.. back to before kids and only the mock draft on my mind!
As a result of trades, like LeSean McCoy, and what not I had to look up the Bills pick and I am taking this site as my guide for now. As usual: I use the cbssports.com rankings and cannot draft a player ABOVE the number of the pick. For instance, the Bills first pick is #50, so the best prospect I could take would be 50th on the cbssports.com big board. Fair enough? I suppose so.
#50- FSU OG Tre Jackson-- I like him better than the other guard in that range (Laken Tomlinson) even though CBS has Tomlinson rated higher. I don't know a ton about Rex's offense, but I know that he loves to run the football and that guard was a weakspot for the Bills last year. Jackson has played in a pro style offense for 4 years, has great leg drive and is able to get to the 2nd level. Sounds like a great run fit to me!
#81- USC CB Josh Shaw-- Don't care about the fabricated story, actually saw his interview and was like.. "Yeah, that makes sense to me." The story part is lame, but he was scared. The kid can play and has insane measurables for this spot in the draft at that position. In the real draft, I think he goes higher, but I'm jumping on the CB/S at this spot and laughing!
#147- MSU FS Kurtis Drummond-- Apparently, I think Rex Ryan likes to have a lot of DBs.. I really think they look at a LB, but I like Drummond here over other raw players. Drummond gives them a smart, physical safety that can play different styles in Ryan's defense. They might look elsewhere, because he can struggle in man coverage, but he does too many other things well to pass him up.
#172- Purdue DE Ryan Russell-- Physical. Great look and explosiveness. Needs time to develop. Oh, hi Rex Ryan and the Bills DL that gets the QB routinely.. what a great place to learn.
#178- QB Sean Mannion- I'd be shocked if he's on the board this long and was surprised he's rated this low. The Bills have QB issues, is he a star? No.. but I can see him being better than Cassell and Manuel.
#209- WR Antwan Goodley-- Actually had a hard time here going back and forth between Goodley and EJ Bibbs. Went with Goodley, who has more explosion (obviously, given the position) than Bibbs, but a TE is a more likely real pick. Goodley fits that slot role that Goodwin never developed into, has his speed, but ability to cross the middle is the difference between the two. Small, explosive, short threat for whoever QBs the team

2014 Buffalo Bills Updated Mock Draft
I said I was going to do this monthly.. what I meant was once and then once again BEFORE the draft started.
As usual with my rules; I'm using cbssportsline.com and cannot draft anybody before their pick. For instance, the Bills 1st pick is #9 and even though I hope Khalil Mack will be available CBS has him at #2 (changed from 6 the first time I did this).. so I can't draft him.
#9: (1st time CJ Mosley; now in the 20s).. Now: Anthony Barr, OLB, UCLA. I really hope for a OT, and I have seen a ton of Ebron going and talk about help for EJ, but I'd shore up the D which can also help out a QB! Barr will get to the QB, period.
#41: (1st time Antonio Richardson; now in the 90s).. Richardson's stock has plummeted.. I still really like him but won't reach for him at 41. Now: Terrence Brooks, S, FSU. He's at #69 now and I was able to get him at #105 before; he's projecting up and this might be a reach.. BUT, how badly do the Bills need safety help?!
#73: (1st time: Jared Abbrederis, 90s.) Now: Antonio Richardson, OT, TN. I like Abbrederis and Borland, but OL is such a HUGE need for the Bills it isn't even funny. They could also look to S here, but Richardson has 1st round talent and is somehow still on the board according to CBS.
#105: (1st time: Terrence Brooks, now 69) Now: Marqueston Huff, S, Wyoming. Great numbers, former athletic CB that played S last season at Wyoming. Worried about physicality on the back end, but in a passing league, a ballhawk is a necessity deep.
#137: (1st time: Jaylen Watkins, now in the 90s). Now: Aaron Murray, QB, Georgia. One time considered a 1st round talent.. we saw what happened when EJ got hurt last year. Murray is smart, athletic, and I think, underrated, at this stage.
#169: (1st time: Denicos Allen). Now: Brandon Thomas, OG, Clemson. Tore his ACL, probably a top 100 pick if he didn't; the Bills have guards signed for next few seasons, so a redshirt year is a good idea. Worthwhile in the mid-rounds.
#201 (1st time: Connor Shaw). Now: Josh Mauro, DE, Stanford. I already took Aaron Murray, so I don't need another QB, instead I'm going with a DE that can play inside or outside and be strong and fundamental at either spot. Mauro isn't an athletic freak and won't give great burst off the edge, but he'll help in the run game and might offer a bit of slippery rush from the DT spot on pass downs (if needed)
Was going to get a WR, but didn't see the need with plenty of guys available as UFA. I don't think RB is a need with Spiller/Jackson still playing well. I would have liked to get a CB, but Huff could play a hybrid/both role there. Ultimately, I don't think Anthony Barr is who they take even if available, but he's too good for me to pass up.

Packers Only 2014 Mock Draft
Packers are about the 3rd/4th team on my list right now.. I'm not going to go into why (Brett Favre has a lot to do with it), but I still watch them on occasion. Seahawks and Bills are ahead of them.. but I still am interested in them being successful, especially now that they've actually adopted a running game.
Same rules as my Bills mock (mainly I don't draft a guy ahead of their CBS ranking)
#21: Ha-Ha Clinton-Dix. S. 'Bama. I don't think he'll really still be available.. but CBS has him ranked low right now. Have you watched the Packers DBs this year? Their okay (at times) at CB with Shields/Williams.. outside of Claymaker they get no pass rush and their S are brutal. They need playmakers and tacklers all over the field, but especially at S
#53: Shayne Skov. LB. Stanford. Kept debating between Skov and Carl Bradford from ASU. Bradford probably makes more sense but is higher risk/higher reward pick.. and I like to play safe especially with ballhawking good tacklers from Stanford.. one of my favorite college programs right now because of how physical they play.
#85: CJ Fiedorowicz. TE. Iowa. Not sure what's up with Finley and his health, but the Iowa kid is a solid blocker/catcher. Iowa players are always fundamentally sound and good blockers in the run game. He has underrated speed/hands and adds a fun element to the Packers offense.
#117: Tajh Boyd. QB. Clemson. Love him. Vastly underrated passer dropping because of his size. Excellent backup possibility.
#149: Wesley Johnson. OL. Vandy. Swing, undersized OL. Has played multiple OL positions at Vandy and been through it all as a multiple year starter in a tough conference. With Packers injuries, a guy that can play multiple positions is good to have around.. plus, he's not Marshall Newhouse.
#181: Ben Gardner. DL. Stanford. Probably not a pick if they stay in the 3-4, but if Capers is gone then the 4-3 makes sense for Gardner. See my mentions on Skov. I also like Ricardo Allen and Kevin Pierre-Louis in this spot.
#213: Dri Archer. Athlete. Kent State. Why not? Let the big dogs eat.

2014 Early Bills Mock
The Bills season is over already.. shocking, right? I am too, especially since Jeff Tuel and Thad Lewis got QB starts.
I figured I'd pass some time watching the Cotton Bowl by doing a quick/early mock draft. As usual with my rules; I'm using cbssportsline.com and cannot draft anybody before their pick. For instance, the Bills 1st pick is #9 and even though I think Khalil Mack will be available CBS has him at #6.. so I can't draft him.
#9: CJ Mosley. Played in a 3-4, but incredibly high IQ. Decent size, can defend run/pass. Only real question is his health. The Bills run D was one of the worst in the NFL and a tackling machine with great instincts can only help.
#41: Antonio Richardson. OT. Probably be gone by this point as mocks have him in round 1 despite his late 40s ranking by CBS. You can't ever have enough OL and protecting Manuel and getting Spiller/Jackson going seems like a wise choice to me.
#73: Jared Abbrederis. Duh. Do I have to explain. I'm a Badgers lover. He's a Badgers player. He's smart, he hustles, he catches. He's ALWAYS open. He caught 78 passes as the only threat on the entire team in the passing game.. FOR THE BADGERS. What's not to like?
#105: Terrence Brooks. S. No clue what's going on at S. Byrd and Leonhard could be there.. could be gone. Brooks is a bit short and has some trouble tackling, but he's physical and can really close on the ball. Fun player to watch. (I really wanted to take Tajh Boyd here)
#137: Jaylen Watkins. CB. It's the new NFL. You need to have guys that can run/cover the pass and play that hybrid CB/S position. Watkins did for one of the better defenses in college football
#169: Denicos Allen. Smallish OLB who was insanely productive behind the LOS in the Big 10. He might get engulfed at times, but he seems to be a step ahead of blockers often and attacks downhill as a very good tackler. A steal at this spot; he'll fall because of his size.
#201 Connor Shaw. Mainly based on what he did to the Badgers and if EJ isn't going to be healthy then I don't want Thad Lewis or Jeff Tuel to have to make throws/decisions. Shaw can play.
I'll try to do this about once a month until the draft; we'll see how it changes with rankings as the process goes.
Breakdown:
4 defenders; 2 in front 7 and 2 in back 4. Speed/tackling available.
3 offensive players. 1 OL, 1 QB, and 1 slot WR.

1985 Dunk Contest
NBA TV is awesome. Have I mentioned that before? DVR'd some of the dunk contests they were showing for old times sake.. this particular one was from 1985 when I was 2 years old.. but I remember it like it was yesterday.
First thing you need to notice is the names in the list:
Wilkins, Drexler, Jordan, Griffith, Woolridge, Nance, Dr. J and some Stansbury (only one I haven't heard of)
Compare that to the 4 guys from last year: Jeremy Evans (huh), Chase Budinger, Derrick Williams and Paul George. Why only 4 guys anyway? And only George is considered a rising star.
2010 had some studs too: Nate Robinson, Gerald Wallace, Demar Derozan, and Shannon Brown. Sweet.
I guess we're gonna skip some dunks: Nique went baseline and hammered down a reverse double pump. Man, he dunks with authority. His 3rd dunk was just smoked.
Clyde: 1-handed reverse. Didn't look too enthusiastic about it either.
Jordan: haha, He's wearing his warm-up pants, a t-shirt and some chinsy jersey. That's good stuff. MJ just out there hanging out right now. Doesn't even look like he's trying.
Darrell Griffith: Utah Jazz old man look going, Malone and Stockton would be excited. His 2nd dunk was nice and only got 42. Dunno about that.
BTW: Stansbury filled in for.. CHARLES BARKLEY?! Barkley was supposed to be in a dunk contest?!
How about this dunk-off between MJ and Stansbury? A SUDDEN DUNK OFF! BTW: Hot Rod Hundley is announcing this dunk-off. This is sick.
MJ wrap around one-hander only gets a 40. Stansbury's dunk way better.. higher score but they send MJ on anyway; I'm serious. Where my NBA conspiracy theorists at? Stern wanted MJ to move on I bet.
Dr. J didn't break a sweat and just smashed down 2 basketballs.Terrence Stansbury is putting on a show; this cat could hang.
OH NO HE DIDN'T! MJ just put some TAPE on the foul line to show where he's jumping from (you know, in case the FOUL LINE isn't a good enough indicator)
Nique wasn't super creative.. but man did he get into the air and just hammer the ball with authority. That's what is missed the most on all the show now. Power and clean sending the ball through the tin and in 1985.. that's what gets you the title, I guess.

How about this dunk-off between MJ and Stansbury? A SUDDEN DUNK OFF! BTW: Hot Rod Hundley is announcing this dunk-off. This is sick.
MJ wrap around one-hander only gets a 40. Stansbury's dunk way better.. higher score but they send MJ on anyway; I'm serious. Where my NBA conspiracy theorists at? Stern wanted MJ to move on I bet.
Dr. J didn't break a sweat and just smashed down 2 basketballs.Terrence Stansbury is putting on a show; this cat could hang.
OH NO HE DIDN'T! MJ just put some TAPE on the foul line to show where he's jumping from (you know, in case the FOUL LINE isn't a good enough indicator)
Nique wasn't super creative.. but man did he get into the air and just hammer the ball with authority. That's what is missed the most on all the show now. Power and clean sending the ball through the tin and in 1985.. that's what gets you the title, I guess.
