Mock with pretty pictures

I'm changing it up this year and any mock I do will be the players I want and think would improve the team. I'm assuming/hoping the team will attempt to sign at least one FA starter for the line, LT or C.


1. Orlando Brown Jr., 6'8" 360lbs RT. I want a bigger, more physical offensive line with Alexander gone. Bring back the days of Willie at RT and let Baby Zeus just bull doze guys in the run game. I also love prospects with NFL bloodlines, they have the genes and are already familiar with the lifestyle and are ready for it. (Also like James, McGlinchey, Williams and Price here)


2. Isaiah Wynn, 6'2" 308lbs OG/C.  I like the versatility and the mean streak. I think he'll be best at RG or C, but he could actually improve any spot on our line. (Hernandez or Reshaan Evans otherwise)


3.Josey Jewell, 6'2" 230lbs ILB/OLB.  Highly productive tackling machine. We need a guy that can still lead the defense when Burfict is out.


3. (Comp) Mike Gesicki, 6'6" 252lbs TE. I would not bring back Eifert under any circumstances. Kroft did a nice job last year, but it's not like his or Uzo's injury history is all that great either. Gesicki would be a nice redzone threat, TE.


4.  Luke Falk, 6'4" 211lbs QB.  I'm assuming McCarron will be gone, some way or another. Hopefully, it's in the form of a returning draft pick. Anyways, Dalton will still be the starter next season, but his leash is getting shorter and we need to be ready to replace him. I like Falk's accuracy and toughness.


5. Toby Weathersby, 6'7" 302lbs OT. Developmental tackle, maybe could play LT or LG.


5.(Comp) Bruce Hector, 6'2" 295lbs DT. Pretty good interior pass rusher.


6. Rashaan Gaulden, 6' 193lbs CB. Fits what we do here with nice athleticism and physical tackling.


7.7.7. Lot's of filler stuff or trade chips in the 7th. Could take a kicker, WR, RB, S, more lineman.

Not sure how I feel about Brown.  I love picks 2, 3, and 3 comp.  Kudos to my good buddy Kevin Cox on a nice frame on your sixth pick.  I think rounds four and five would be a good place to hit DL or safety as there are some good prospects who will probably fall into that range.  Overall its a very solid mock.
