Mock Draft 1 - 2017 - Okeana - 01-09-2017
Traded 9th pick to Indy for pick 14 and pick 16 of round two.
1 - 14th pick - Derek Barnett - DE - Tennessee
Time to give one to my Defensive line boys in the first. Doesn't have to be rushed in and can play behind MJ/Dunlap
2 - 9th pick - Raekwon McMillian - ILB - OSU
Pay the price of losing out on first round LB, but get a very solid ILB with Mcmillian.
2 - 16th pick - Pat Elflein - G/C - OSU
Comes in to compete and start at center with bodine moving to backup.
3 - 9th pick - Evan Ingram - TE - Mississippi
Listed as a TE, but plays like a WR and brought in to fill that role.
4 - 9th pick - Carroll Phillips EDGE/OLB - Illinois
Guy has great talent but some character issues. He falls and we benefit. Can play standing up or with hand in the dirt.
4 - Pick 32 - Taylor Morton - OT - WM
Solid RT that comes in to compete and backup
4 - Pick 39 - Kenny Bigelow Jr - DT - USC
Has injury concerns, but a chance to develop a guy who could have easily been a top 10 guy.
Haven't mocked past this point, but mainly developmental OLB / RB / S / CB would be taken at this point to compete for backup and practice squad.
