4/1 Fools Day Mock - Emeritus - 04-01-2016
1 Emmanuel Ogbah DE Oklahoma
https://youtu.be/CZl7DwSGMx8
A very real athletic terror coming off either side.You never have enough guys who can rush the passer.
2 Sterling Shepard WR Oklahoma
https://youtu.be/ufMtmcsKdaA
This guy is really hands down the best route runner in the entire draft. He just makes plays all over the field with explosive plays. I wouldn't rule him out at 24 either.
3 Willie Henry DT Michigan
https://youtu.be/HWBRzsBmLmo
A definite upgrade to the rotation bringing some size and athleticism to the table. He made quite a few plays for the team up north. Good pickup
4 Cyrus Jones CB Alabama
https://youtu.be/wV80-0pP-VM
A good value pick here at a position of need.
The guy has played a lot of high level football and always came up big. He also brings special teams value to the table.
5 Marquez North WR Tennessee

In the fifth round we grab a big fast junk yard dog of a target. The ceiling is as high as any of the wideouts in the draft. This would be a solid pick here.
6 Steve Longa LB Rutgers
https://youtu.be/m9fxoT9V9q8
An underrated but extremely productive player out of Rutgers. Although not many know about him hes had over 100+ tackles in each of his three years. This would be a great point to take him off the board.
7 Kyle Friend C Temple
https://youtu.be/sxUiPwoTHvs
Just a solid tough player with one heck of a punch and above average feet. I really like what he brings from a potential perspective

Thanks for posting your mock draft. I really like the Willie Henry, (DT) from Michigan pick in the 3rd round.
RE: 4/1 Fools Day Mock - phil413 - 04-02-2016
Talent wise Ogbah shouldn't be there when Cincy is up, but the motor issue and depth at the position may land him there. There are so many solid DL prospects that you may be right on the picks and the talent level between Ogbah and Willie Henry isn't as big of a gap as 2 full rounds should be. Shepherd is going to make some big plays, but I'm still debating over weather or not Marvin and Co. would actually select him. They historically want their WR's to be able to get off jams and block, and I don't know if they take a slot guy in the 2nd. If they figure they can use him, then he could be a breath of fresh air though. Jones is a guy that I end up taking in the draft simulators so can't argue with that one. Descent mock, I'm all for DE and DT within the first 3 though.

I seriously would like to see our draft pick either Robert Nkemdiche-a true stud who is going to be super wherever he goes or Andrew Billings or Javon Hargrave in the first.I really feel like they are leaning towards a DT,DE or NT in the first.We need to shore up that spot and this years draft has the best talent on D the draft folks say is the best in years and you just have to take advantage of that when its there.We so need a top D-lineman,you pick where,but I believe we need a stud to line up next Geno Atkins.That is a big weakness,as Peko is okay,but we need a stud there and I hope they address that with the first pick.Gotta get the BPA with the first pick and everyone knows that is going to be on DEFENSE.
