With the 69th pick of the NN community mock draft, TopFlightSecurity and Washington select...Tevin Coleman, RB, Indiana
I wanted a third down back at some point, and I think Coleman can fill that void for them right now and then more. It is clear to this point Alfred Morris will never be a third down back. Despite reports he has been working on it, this staff and the last staff just don't see him as that. Coleman should fill that void and more if need be early on.
Other Options: FS Cody Prewitt, Ole Miss: They need help at the position but like i said it is clear this class is not not loaded at that positions with talent they can afford to wait.
OLB Shaq Thompson, Washington:: Could be a safety best spot will have to be some kind of chess piece could work for Washington.
QB Bryce Petty, Baylor: Baylor-for-Baylor quarterback exchange possible?
With the 70th pick of the NN community mock draft, Roy_From_Israel and the New York Jets select...Nate Orchard, DE/OLB, Utah
Alternates: Sammie Coates, WR, Lorenzo Mauldin, DE/OLB, Trey Flowers,DE/OLB
Earlier in the draft I drafted my franchise QB in Winston, and provided him some protection in the 2nd round by taking Ogbuehi. My team still need to add edge rushers and a wide receiver. Luckily there is some great value on the board at both positions. I have Nate Orchard as an edge rusher and Sammie Coates at WR. Even though Coats is a great athlete he is tremendously raw and would probably won't be able to contribute right away. Orchard on the other hand is a proven commodity with double digit sacks last season. He might have a lower ceiling but he is less likely to be a bust. He has a knack for the QB and will always find a way to get to him. Furthermore, the addition of Brandon Marshall decreases the need for WR and that's why I'm going with a pass rusher over a WR.
With the 71st pick of the NN community mock draft, Harbaughalypsenow and the Chicago Bears select...Ronald Darby, CB, Florida State
Darby was a very good value here, and he should be able to immediately help a Bears' defense that gave up 377 yards per game through the air in 2014. While the safety position is still shaky, Darby was too good a value to pass up.
The FSU product has excellent coverage skills and speed. He should be able to run with the speedy WRs in the NFC North. While he may not be a force in the run game, he has decent enough size and seemed to be a willing tackler in college. He should also be a special teams contributor.
Other players considered: It was a two man race, and the other player considered was Damarious Randall, S, ASU. I really like his potential as a slot CB/center fielder hybrid, in the mold of our own Jimmie Ward. And at a third round price tag, I would've been very happy to pull the trigger.
With the 72nd pick of the NN community mock draft, EastBayNinerFan and the St. Louis Rams select...Donovan Smith, OT, Penn State
Rams still in need of help in the trenches. With Barksdale still an FA and Wizznoooski signing elsewhere, the Rams have to replace and get better thru the draft. Smith will fill that need at right tackle and allow Scherff to slide inside to left guard. This becomes an automatic upgrade to the Rams OL from last years disaster.
