Synric's Mock Me (Thanksgiving Week)

[*Synric*]

Draft season might start early this year so we are getting a November mock. I wanted to get alot of names out there so we have a trade eith the 49ers.

Bengals trade pick #10 to the 49ers for picks #17, #79 (3rd), #115(4th), #247(7th).... and a 2026 4th "Just because I feel like it" - Kevin Costner. 49ers trade up for Will Campbell OT LSU.



1. Walter Nolen DT Ole Miss 6'3 305

Most impressive prospect that I saw while out on the scouting trail last weekend. This is the prospect many envisioned. Let’s see if it can continue. pic.twitter.com/fUBYzXBJ9T

2. Donovan Jackson IOL Ohio State 6'4 320

Ohio State's LG Donovan Jackson (74) is an interesting prospect to watch for the Patriots.

He has good movement skills which show up as a run blocker, and he's active in pass protection looking for players to hit.@_mockdrafts has him at No. 51 on the consensus board right now. pic.twitter.com/Hrb69M0WLd

3. Xavier Watts S Notre Dame 6'0 203

More single-high man, this time on Xavier Watts' interception. What a luxury it is to have a secondary that can do this consistently.

Here, Weigman cannot throw this ball. I understand the read, but Watts just has perfect coverage.

Wherever the QB puts it, it's getting picked. pic.twitter.com/BUY0oPq5PW

3. Bradyn Swanson Edge LSU 6'3 250

LSU Pass rusher Bradyn "Sack" Swinson has been one of my favorite edge players to watch for the 2025 NFL Draft. 6'4 250 with a quick first step and twitchy athleticism. He also has surprisingly heavy hands at the POA and can convert speed to power to bull rush OTs.

He has a 85.1… pic.twitter.com/crtvVTrK3o

4. Aeneas Peebles DT Virginia Tech 6'1 290

Aeneas Peebles is one of “my guys” for the 2025 Draft. He is undersized at Defensive Tackle but he makes up for it with pure determination, quickness, and versatility. I would love to add a guy with this kind of pass russ juice to the Bengals on Day 2. pic.twitter.com/iQlQsiAmRz

5. Savion Williams WR TCU 6-5 225

Just watched TCU WR Savion Williams and my mind is blown. It’s like if AD Mitchell was good after the catch. Top 20 player for me pic.twitter.com/jTR3Wm7RgK

6. Chase Lundt OT UConn 6'8 305

Solid play here by Chase Lundt (#75) against James Pierce Jr. One of the top edge rushers in the class. Pierce goes for the long arm/stab and Lundt just latches on and is able to set his anchor. pic.twitter.com/BXTXXrtT27

7. Donovan Edwards RB Michigan 6'1 212

SO NICE HE HAD TO DO IT TWICE ?

Donovan Jackson is that guy we'd like to see at LG. He even filled in at LT really well for several games until going down with an achilles injury for the year.  Considering the severity of the achilles injury and him being such a large man, his draft stock may fall quite a bit depending on how well his recovery/rehab goes.

I also like the Swanson pick, however I could see a classic 3-4 team picking him up as an OLB.

I didn't hear about the Donovan Jackson injury. (Only half watched the game while tailgating lol). I can't find anything either. I did see that Seth Mclaughlin tore his achilles.

You know, you're right it was the Center, Seth Mclaughlin. Jackson missed time early in the season with a hamstring issue. But yes, he's been playing at LT since the Penn St. game. That versatility will make him a very hot draft commodity.

Edit: And it's a shame about Mclaughlin, he was just announced as a finalist for the Outland Trophy this week.

DT/S/IOL would make me happy. I like your selections.

[Whatever]

Nolen isn't a bad prospect, but to me, a 1st round DL needs to be a pass rush monster, not a guy that's ok, but not not a difference maker. I've routinely seen him as the 4th-5th best DT in the class and can draft him sometimes in the 2nd.
