PRIOR TO THE DRAFT SIGN:
- Marvin Jones
- Adam Jones
- George Iloka (if he doesn’t ask too much – if he does sign Nelson)
- Sheldon Rankins DT – Louisville – 6’1” 299lbs – Don’t think he’ll be there, but there’s a chance. He’s a great penetrator with a lot of lower body strength who can disrupt the running game as well. He’s a 3 down lineman who would be a nightmare paired with Geno – and be able to give Geno a breather at other times.
- Miles Killebrew SS/ LB (#28) – Southern Utah – 6’1” 219lbs – Word has it that the Bengals were interviewing him. And I’m pretty sure he won’t be there in the 3rd. This gives us a guy who can stuff the run and cover running backs and tight ends. And he’s vicious. Will need a little training about tackling guys out of bounds, but he will definitely add another intimidator to the defense. I’ve read that he handles blocking TEs really well and he is a ball hawk as well. Worth a 2nd rounder in my opinion.
- Graham Glascow C – Michigan – 6’6” 307lbs- Very strong guy with long arms who has a reputation for being smart, nasty and very effective in the running game. He has some liabilities getting to the 2nd level and doesn’t have the niftiest feet, but he anchors well against the bull rush and works well with his guards to handle stunts and blitzes. Hopefully an upgrade for Bodine
- Joe Schobert OLB – Wisconsin - 6’1” 247lbs - Ran a slow enough 40 at the combine that there’s a hope he’s still here. Schobert’s a good SAM candidate who plays well against the run, surprisingly good in coverage and is a good blitzer. So a better 3 down guy than we have. His tape is really good. He’s just a player. And a 4.30 short shuttle underscore’s his lateral ability.
- Vincent Valentine DT - Nebraska - 6’3” 320lbs – Why another DT? Because the attrition is heavy there. There are a lot of injuries and I want someone who can flat out stuff the run and penetrate. This guy has done both. Risk on him is his laziness, but with our locker room I don’t see that happening. Williams and Hardison are both more penetrators than run stuffers and neither of them are too impressive so far. This guy is nasty and strong. Having Rankins and Valentine allows us to keep Peko and Geno fresh – especially in Denver.
- Ka’imi Fairbairn K - UCLA – 5’11” 183 lbs – Borrowing from B-fine here. We need a new kicker and this guy sounds great. I’m tired of having really important games decided on the failure of our kickers to hit an extra darn point.
- James Bradberry – CB – 6’1” 209lbs – Raw guy with great size, decent speed (4.50) and really long arms. Press corner project
Man, pretty much my thoughts, love this Mock.
