Hitman21ST Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 http://www.nfl.com/draft/story/09000d5d81ec2919/article/first-look-has-bills-looking-to-miller-for-instant-impact?module=HP_cp2 1. Cam Newton 2. Marcell Dareus 3. Von Miller 4. Nick Fairley 5. Blaine Gabbert 6. AJ Green 7. Patrick Peterson 8. Robert Quinn 9. Prince Amukamara 10. Julio Jones Nothing real new or groundbreaking, but I'm really warming to Julio Jones. Not that I wasn't before, but seeing Gabbert go early, I wouldn't mind JJ on our team at all. EDIT: Just finished reading it, he doesn't have any QBs taken after Gabbert in Round 1...so in his mind we could still get Locker or Mallet...

gutlead74 Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 I can wrap my head around this scenario. Locker in the second wouldn't be too bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Novato Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Don't think that Skins will go Offense with 2 top picks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koolblue13 Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Jones and Locker would be awesome. I'm almost always a defense guy and this draft is loaded with defensive talent and I want to draft offense. Strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiro Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 A kind of cool sub-plot to this draft scenario would be Prince Amukamara going to Dallas, competing against Julio Jones of the Redskins twice a year for the foreseeable future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken Fried Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 JJ in the first and Locker in the second would be SWEET! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conn Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 I can definitely see most of that happening, although I'm having a hard time convincing myself that I care what Bucky Brooks thinks. Still, the more mock draft talk, the better this time of year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibbs Hog Heaven Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 That would be a fantastic scenario, but I seriously don't see Locker making it to the second. If he is Shanahan's guy, some negotiating may well have to be done here if we take Jones or A N Other at 10. Hail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S.T.real,lights,out Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Don't think that Skins will go Offense with 2 top picks. Neither can i even though we really need it. Just about every Mock i read has us taking JJ which i would be more than happy with. But im sure Shanny will throw a curveball at us. But being able to get Jones in the 1st and Locker in the 2nd would be too good to be true if u ask me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyUtah Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 I would be happy with getting Jones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seancarter Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 I'd be happy with Jones. We can go either offense or defense with our first pick. If we go O in the first, I would like to go D with our second or vice versa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is too good to be true and knowing us, it won't happen. Also, we're not going to draft JJ. Shanny will surprise us all I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Champskins Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 I hope this is a defensive year for the 'Skins.. they can hopefully get Blackmon next year or Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I noticed that in another mock draft and agree. Assuming they both go on to meet or exceed expectations and stick with their original clubs(obviously HUGE assumptions) it would be a cool footnote in history that they were picked one after the other in the same draft and then competed 20+ times in their careers.

Champskins Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 he's been injured every year in college... Don't get me wrong, he is DAMNNNNN good and prototype size but sounds like a tad bit better version of MK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dukes and Skins Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Much more than a "tad bit" better than MK as a prospect. He's definitely one of the best prospects in this draft no doubt. MK could be a very good player but he's never healthy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conn Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 He's definitely one of the best prospects in this draft no doubt. MK could be a very good player but he's never healthy And because of those health concerns, he couldn't even crack the first round in his own draft, never mind the fact that multiple receivers were drafted ahead of him. Jones, on the other hand, is being argued by some as a player who could have a better career than AJ Green, who is widely considered the best WR prospect in quite awhile. That's a bold position, but it just goes to show how much more highly regarded Jones is than MK. I still wish MK had just gone on the PUP list rather than forcing himself to practice that first day of camp...:doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted him above JJ in this years draft before he dropped out... This should be a defensive year for us and build up that 3-4. Our offense can pick up the pieces Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truant Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 It wouldn't be surprising to see JJ be a huge WR in the NFL or be a monumental bust. Questionable hands are not a good trait for a WR. If you've ever actually seen him play football, he doesn't play like a sub 4.4 guy. If we were looking for a guy that looks amazing in tights on a rubber track, JJ would definitely be the pick. The good news is that #10 is a great spot... any of those players listed in the top 10 are worth a selection at 10. I still think we trade down to secure some more picks and make a play for an edge rusher, NT, or Locker. Not a Locker fan though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnhay Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Whoever the coaches love they should get. I hope this team isn't so delusional to think that picking based on need will make the difference this year. BPA or trade down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
