Mayock's Top 5
#1
First of the season:

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000635418/article/mike-mayocks-2016-nfl-draft-position-rankings

Can't agree with not having Billings in the Top 5 interior D

What do you agree/disagree with the most?

But who do you bump from the top5 d linemen? All the more reason we could grab someone like him at 24, or even 55.

The lists look good to me, mostly. I'd consider Ogbah over Floyd in Edge rushers, however.

Nkemdiche is an interesting case.   I don't know what his off the field issues are, but if it's substance abuse - especially alcohol - the Bengals will not be interested.   They've been burned too much and the Manziel debacle will be fresh in their minds.  

The other obvious red flag with him is his inconsistent performance, though he tends to show up in big games (think Pittsburgh for a start).  

But when he's on he's dominant and can play inside or out with frightening efficacy.  Think Michael Bennett. 

But for our needs I really like Billings and feel that his consistency should put him in the top 5.

Any of them except Buckner, but I see Buckner as a DE.

I'd put Billings over all the other DTs.
He's got some work to do with his technique but the raw power and explosiveness is there.

Nkemdiche has major off field stuff he needs sorted out and has some holes in his game he needs fixed.
Reed is a good NT prospect and is an above average athlete but isn't going to do a whole lot in the pass game.
Rankins is probably the most pro-ready complete player on the list.
A'Shawn is very unrefined. Physically he's very impressive. But his overall technique needs overhauled.

Karl Joseph as the #1 safety. He is probably my favorite prospect in the entire draft. Dude can hit and cover. He's basically a Reggie Nelson clone. I was hoping the knee injury may cause his stock to drop a little and we could snag him in the 2nd. If we lose Nelson and/or Iloka, Joseph needs to get picked by us.

I like the kid from Clemson, Dodd, as a potential edge rushing specialist on the right side. That is probably the biggest benefit to the overall defense.

Glad to see Louisville's Sheldon Rankins getting some love from Mayock.

yet it's only the thirsty that hunger to roam.
