UPDATED:
Here is my third mock draft for the 2015 season. I finally got off from school last week and had some time to visit an old tradition for me: game film. I've managed to watch at least one game of every player's in this mock from either 2014 or 2013. I usually try to see them against the best in conference competition, or I check when they had a great game or an awful game by stats and watch those, as you can usually tell a lot by the extremes.
I wasn't satisfied with my last mock, mostly because I rushed it and I had seen less than half the guys games, so it just wasn't very well informed and mostly went on scouting reports and aggregation as well as my sense of which teams needed what. Walterfootball.com is bugging out right now, so I haven't posted this mock there yet, but I probably will sometime this week.
1.01 Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Jameis Winston, QB, Florida St.
I expect my Titans to end up with the #2 pick if we lose the remainder of our games, but I'm going by the current draft order which has Tampa Bay #1. It comes down to three guys with this pick for TB: Winston, Mariota, or Hundley. Looking at Lovie Smith's choice to hold on to Glennon (a statue) and start McCown (a statue), I think he wants to develop a pocket passer. That rules out the other two viable options here. Winston has made some Kaepernick like mistakes this year, but he's also made some unbelievable comebacks and has generally looked clean mechanically and decision wise in the pocket. My biggest knock against drafting early QBs is the mental game, and Winston has that. If only he were smarter about things other than football.
1.02 Tennessee Titans: Leonard Williams, DE, USC
It's funny, because if I ranked the Titans needs, 5tech would be dead last. That just doesn't matter though. Sammie Hill will move back to nose tackle full time and Ropati Pitoitua will pace Williams and Casey on first down with Leonard Williams starting at RE. Williams is the best player on tape I've seen this year, bar none. His strength and moveset are going to carry over to the NFL, and that's rare for an interior D-lineman. I feel that JJ Watt comparisons are not unrealistic. If the Titans can assemble a 3 man front of Casey, Williams and Hill, then Ray Horton's blitz/stunt happy scheme will be much better than it was this season.
1.03 Jacksonville Jaguars: Shane Ray, DE, Missouri
What Ray lacks in versatility, he makes up for in strength and size. Ray is one of the only players in this draft who I expect can immediately come in and legitimize the Jaguars' pass rush. He is the best pure rusher in the class by far, and if he is asked to do only that, he has Clowney like upside for the Jaguars. For years the Jaguars have ignored the defense with top 5 picks, and for the most part, it hasn't worked out with Blackmon, Joeckel and Bortles who is barely passable as a starter at this point. Red Bryant was signed in free agency, but he would play better inside at DT next to Sen'Derrick Marks, who has had a great season for Jacksonville.
1.04 New York Jets: Marcus Mariota, QB, Oregon
"I has shown flashes of pro-bowl potential" - Geno Smith. "I have shown potential to replace your ass" - Not Marcus Mariota, but he should say this. In a run first offense with Percy Harvin and Eric Decker as his weapons, Mariota would have a season to develop. And he needs to do that because the Oregon QB has shown that he prefers to run first without his eyes down-field. That doesn't work in the NFL today. Mariota's arm talent and decision making however are usually top-notch, and part of me believes that he looks like a run-first QB on film only because that is Oregon's gameplan. I suspect that we will see a different Marcus Mariota in New York than we see on film in Eugene.
1.05 Oakland Raiders: Amari Cooper, WR, Alabama
Amari Cooper isn't my #1 WR prospect, Jaelen Strong is. However, name recognition and unbelievable college success will boost his success and make him a sure top-5 pick. Oakland needs help at virtually every position except WR. They are almost impossible to mock for need because they could buy a major FA this offseason such as Demaryius Thomas or Dez Bryant, but just on perceived BPA, Cooper makes sense in the top 5.
1.06 Washington Redskins: Randy Gregory, OLB, Nebraska
Brian Orakpo has about a 1% chance to remain in Washington next season, and Trent Murphy has disappointed me so far. This isn't a huge need for Washington since they could keep developing Murphy, but I like Washington to take the best pass rusher left in the draft who can replace what Orakpo used to do for them. Gregory also looks quite good in coverage on the rare play he was asked to do so at Nebraska. This is needed in Washington's over the top cover 3, and 3-4 rushers who can drop back are extremely rare in this draft class, or on the free agent market.
1.07 New York Giants: Shaq Thompson, OLB, Washington
This was one of the toughest calls for me to make. Thompson is not a pure pass rusher and that is the biggest need New York has. However, I believe that Jonathon Hankins and Jay Bromley will both develop into great interior pass rushers and the Giants biggest challenge will actually be stopping the run and setting an edge. Thompson is perfect for that, even in a defense that has historically neglected linebackers. Thompson is the third highest player on my board here, but Collins or Strong would make no sense for the Giants, so Thompson is their BPA.
1.08 Carolina Panthers: La’el Collins, LT, LSU
Carolina could go any number of ways here. Collins isn't an elite talent at offensive tackle, but he is the best fit for the Panthers power run game. Usually when Carolina wins, they win by feeding running backs and getting plays on the ground from Cam. Johnathon Gross is gone without effective replacement, and Collins is a borderline top ten talent, and certainly the best choice Carolina could make on the offensive line, if they decide to ignore CB, RB, WR and their many other needs.
1.09 Chicago Bears: Landon Collins, S, Alabama
Kyle Fuller has looked great, and yet the Bears still have one of the leagues worst secondaries. Landon Collins is my favorite safety prosect... ever? At least that I've scouted. If not for devaluation of the position and a lack of need from teams going higher, Collins could be a top 3 pick. He has elite coverage skills even playing at SS, hits hard in the box and fills gaps on a professional quality defense at Alabama. There isn't a more sure prospect on defense in this draft, and since the Bears even have a spot for him, it's a no-brainer. Collins will move straight to free safety and oust the often plagued Chris Conte in Chicago.
1.10 New Orleans Saints: Vic Beasley, OLB, Clemson
I'm not as high on Beasley as I used to be, but I still think he has the highest ceiling of any guy at his position based on his mearurables and success at Clemson. In 2013, Beasley was an entire defense by himself. This year, he has stepped off the gas, but the talent still flashes at times. I'm assuming that even with Rob Ryan likely done in New Orleans, the scheme is still a 3-4 next year. It's worth mentioning that Beasley is not a talented zone cover guy and would not work in a 4-3 either. His position might as well read "Demarcus Ware" instead of OLB.
1.11 Minnesota Vikings: Jaelen Strong, WR, Arizona St.
I hope that Strong has some cold weather gear. The desert to the tundra will be a rough trip. I LOVE Strong's route running, hands and vertical game. While he is the slowest of the first round guys on tape, I think he will get vertical separation and make defenders miss a step on breaking routes consistently. He does an amazing job of this on a simple out against USC that made me watch him more. His vertical game is the best of any receiver in this class. Usually you say that about guys like Alshon Jeffrey, Dwayne Bowe or Justin Hunter who have other gaping flaws. Not this guy. While it's true you can't speed, you can replace it with the guy lined up next to Strong, Cordarelle Patterson.
1.12 St. Louis Rams: Brett Hundley, QB, UCLA
Hundley's mechanics and pocket game have actually improved this year, despite his team not being as successful. When he stays in the pocket, he's holding the ball longer and making better choices which is what I hoped to see after grading him in the late second round when most thought he would enter the 2014 draft. Hundley has hugely improved his stock and I think no quarterback will jumper higher in the predraft process, similar to what we saw with Manziel and Savage last year. If Jeff Fisher is still the Rams coach next year, he's worked with mobile QBs in the past and had some success turning them into pocket passers. And no, I'm not comparing Hundley to VY. He's more like Russell Wilson or Donovan McNabb in my eyes.
1.13 Houston Texans: Kevin White, WR, WVU
White was virtually unknown to start the season, but he flew up boards in September and October. He's a similar player to Jaelen Strong actually, in that his vertical game and route running out class his average speed. But the fact that White managed elite production without burner speed in college shows that he has potential in the NFL. One knock against White is that he had consistent problems with academics in college, JUCO and high school and the NFL is a whole new level of work ethic and discipline. Since I can't really know whether or not rumors are true, I'm putting him at 13 on talent and potential success in the league. If White takes a huge stock dive in the pre draft process where those things come out, don't say I didn't tell you so.
1.14 Cleveland Browns: Brandon Scherff, OL, Iowa*
I watched one Iowa game this year and I sure as hell wasn't paying attention to the O-line, so I'm going off what other scouts say about Scherff, which is that he has the size and runblocking ability to be a top NFL guard as a rookie, or a decent tackle prospect. With that in mind, he's a perfect fit in Cleveland who desperately needs a guard but might want to look at replacing former-superstart Mitchell Schwartz, who has had an up and down season. I'll keep the analysis short since I really don't know what I'm talking about on this one.
1.15 Miami Dolphins: Ifo Ekpre-Olomu, CB, Oregon
IEO has been my top corner consistently and I haven't seen whatever it is people have seen that shot Marcus Peters and Trae Waynes ahead of him, other than size. Short corners can make it in the NFL. Last year, I had Jason Verrett as a top 5 pick. He ended up dominating for the Chargers before getting hurt, and he wasn't as good in college as Ekpre-Olomu has been. The man whose name I can't pronounce consistently plays bigger than his 5'11 frame, hits hard and breaks up passes with his finger tips routinely. Any team that passes up the draft's best cover corner because of size or scheme fit is making a mistake.
1.16 Kansas City Chiefs: Dorial Green-Beckham, WR, OU Alex Smith hasn't thrown a touchdown to a wide receiver this season. The Kansas City group might be the worst in the league, and the Chiefs are smack dab in the middle of a first round that, as always these days, seems to be loaded with WR talent. Green-Beckham has had more off the field issues than even Jameis Winston, but his elite size and speed could absolutely turn him into the steal of the draft for the team who takes a flier on him. I can't help comparing him to Randy Moss, even though that I know there won't ever be another Randy Moss.
1.17 Cleveland Browns: Shawn Oakman, DE, Baylor
I believe in Johnny Manziel and Josh Gordon. I believe in them so much, I know that the Browns QB-WR connection is going to work next year. It's going to be like Manning-Harrison and Stafford-Megatron and Romo-Bryant. Thus, the Browns lack of depth won't matter. They can take the best player available, and Oakman is a monster of a 5 tech who can make Cleveland's defense legitimate again. Cleveland's front three is made up entirely of ex-raiders, and that's NEVER good. They've also been awful this year and need help.
1.18 San Francisco 49ers: PJ Williams, CB, Florida State
Even though I generally subscribe to taking shorter, more athletic corners, I think the 49ers are an exception. Also, I gut BURNED on that rule last year when I ignored Kyle Fuller as a first round guy because of his speed and change of direction (or lack thereof). The 49ers gone to bigger run stoppers on the outside for years now, and PJ Williams reminds me of what Chris Culliver and Carlos Rogers used to do for San Francisco. He's tall and strong with a great punch. He's not an elite man to man guy, but his physical gifts show me that he could eventually be a #1 corner if his coverage skills improve. The 49ers really need a WR, but the class is deep at WR, but not corner, so I think they target one next round.
1.19 Baltimore Ravens: Trae Waynes, CB, Michigan State
I had a second round grade on Waynes coming into the year and most others had him even lower. He didn't get much credit for anchoring a great Michigan State defense, but that's changed. Waynes is a first round lock based on talent. Baltimore doesn't have a gaping hole at corner, but all their players have been sub-par lately, even the once-elite Ladarius Webb. Jimmy Smith and Aaron Ross have been often injured as well, and both are on IR right now. Waynes could be a #2 corner behind Webb on week 1 and probably take his spot pretty soon.
1.20 Dallas Cowboys: Eddie Goldman, DT, Florida State
The 315 pound Goldman is a great run stopper and has the strength to be an elite DT overall. He needs to improve his pass rushing skills to actually get picked in the first round, but Dallas is so desperate for DT help here, I think they reach as they usually do for their biggest need. Dallas is a good fit because they don't run stunts, which are problematic for nose tackle - 43 converts.
1.21 Atlanta Falcons: Ronnie Stanley, OT, ND*
Stanley has been heralded by many as the best offensive lineman in the class after coming out of nowhere this season for the Fighting Irish. I only saw Notre Dame play FSU and I wasn't watching Stanley. I didn't even know his name until this mock, but leaving him off would have been stupid. While Atlanta needs a pass rusher more than a tackle, their isn't a true 4-3 end who is worth a first round pick left. Passing up on Stanley to reach for a guy like Dupree or pick an out of scheme pass rusher like Dante Fowler Jr would be a desperate move.
1.22 Pittsburgh Steelers: Marcus Peters, CB, Washington
I don't get what others see in Peters, which is why I don't have him anywhere my top 10 as many aggregate sites do right now. He's 6'0 which is great, but he reminds me of Justin Gilbert last year. Just because a corner has the ability to take away #1's in college doesn't mean they'll be islands in the NFL. I think Peters is way overrated and will fall to the bottom of the 1st, even though the Husky defense has been phenomenal this year. I credit that more to the pass rush in Washington. Pittsburgh has no legitimate starting corner right now, as Taylor and Allen have been weak spots on the team.
1.23 San Diego Chargers: AJ Cann, G, South Carolina San Diego is always a tough team to mock, because they have no glaring needs. Seeing that, I'm mocking them AJ Cann, the classes top guard who is falling because more and more NFL teams are moving college tackles to guard (with mixed success honestly). I would point to DJ Fluker and Greg Robinson as examples of why lineman should stay at their college position unless its absolutely necessary. The Chargers have a whole at RG and Cann can (LOL) fill it and improve Rivers' protection. It will be hard for San Diego to pass on the RB talent in this draft here, but I think Brandon Oliver and Donald Brown can be answers there next year.
1.24 Philadelphia Eagles: Dak Prescott, QB, MSU
Looking at Philly's roster, I didn't see where they could improve next season in the draft. They're stacked at almost every position. Right now, with Foles injured, they have no legitimate starting option and unless Foles can make it back in time for the playoffs, they have no chance at winning a super bowl despite being a great team. I think they draft Prescott in the first to challenge Foles for his job next year. Prescott has some great developmental qualities including leadership, arm talent and good decision making. He's highly inconsistent and more of an athlete than a QB, but his passing game is at least looking up. The Eagles have made the most of many not-great prospects in the past (Kolb, Vick, Foles, Sanchez) and I think that Prescott would have a 50/50 shot of winning the starting job at some point next season. Needless to say, he's a perfect fit in Kelly's offense. The learning curve is the only thing I'm worried about.
1.25 Cincinnati Bengals: Cedric Ogbuehi, LT, Texas A&M
Talk about submarining draft stock! Ogbuehi was the obvious #1 LT prospect coming into the season, but his pass protection isn't what it was last year. In addition to that, Luke Joeckel has busted in Jacksonville and Jake Matthews has been just OK in Atlanta so far, and some bad scouts and GMs will hold his school against him for that. I think Ogbeuhi can be an elite blindside guy, and the Bengals get a steal here.
1.26 Indianapolis Colts: Dante Fowler Jr., OLB, Florida
I'm not as big a fan of Fowler Jr as most everyone else. And I usually LOVE Florida defensive guys. I don't see the same ability that Dominique Easley and Brandon Spikes showed there. His tape looks a lot like Dee Ford did last year: big flashy plays and a lot of mistakes. Fowler is an above average pass rushing prospect who doesn't do much else. The Colts are desperate for that kind of difference maker though, and there aren't many great choices after the first round. I think they have to reach here.
1.27 Detroit Lions: Andrus Peat, LT, Stanford
I was tempted to mock Todd Gurley here, since Joique Bell could carry the power game until he's ready, but I think the Georgia star keeps falling and the Lions settle for a potentially elite LT who should have gone earlier in the draft. A surplus of tackle talent has let Peat fall to the Lions. Keep in mind that this is pick 27, and Peat was at one point the #1 player on a lot of boards. And he didn't really fall off.
1.28 Arizona Cardinals: Alvin Dupree, DE, Kentucky
With Avery Williamson dominating for my Titans, I'm tempted to put Alvin Dupree even higher, and I think he'll have a great combine and workout because of his strength and speed. He is limited in doing anything but taking down quarterbacks however, and if that doesn't translate to the NFL, he's a potential bust. I like the upside of the Cardinals phasing out the aging Darnell Dockett.
1.29 Seattle Seahawks: DeVante Parker, WR, Louisville
This was a weird pick. Parker is way higher on most boards than how I see him. He reminds me of Hakeem Nicks too much to take him any higher. He's gotten in trouble for giving up on routes and dropping passes, which will get him benched really fast in the NFL. However, Seattle needs a WR like I need 11 man camera angles. Parker's upside is amazing and if he works out for Seattle, he could turn their weakness into a strength.
1.30 Denver Broncos: TJ Clemmings, OT, Pittsburgh*
Here's another guy I had never heard of until a few weeks ago. I don't really know how offensive lineman fly up boards, but Clemmings did so I'll put him at the bottom of round 1 to Denver, who badly need offensive line help.
1.31 Green Bay Packers: Benardrick McKinney, ILB, MSU
Props to Clay Matthews for moving inside. It helped the team get through a rough patch, but it's not a long term solution. Draft McKinney to let Matthews get back to the edge and make the Packers more threatening on defense.
1.32 New England Patriots: Todd Gurley, RB, Georgia
This pick is a weird one, but I like it. Gurley needs a team that has other options week 1 in case his knee isn't ready. Gurley is the only RB I think has a shot of going in round 1, and with his injury, the stocks of guys like Melvin Gordon have suddenly gone through the roof. I get that Gordon has had some great games, but he also disappears like he did against Ohio St and lacks Gurley's elite size. The Pats need a WR but aren't likely to take one, and no tight ends are worth a first round pick in this draft. Look for the Pats to try to secure their long sought-after replacement for Correy Dillon.
Wow that was more writing than I thought it would be! Please shoot any feedback at this draft and be as critical as possible. I'll answer anyhting I find legitimate criticism, but if your complaint is: We won't draft ___________ we have bigger needs at ____________, I probably won't, or will just link you to the thread I made about how much I hate that comment. First round picks are based on talent that can save a GM's ass if his coach does a bad job, not plugging holes on the depth chart. Green Bay does this every year, they grab two good players in each draft, and even though their roster always has a hole or two, they're always a good team because they have a couple elite players. I try to be Ted Thompson when I do these mocks.

San Diego has glaring needs my friend. Those needs are interior OL, DL, OLB and WR. Let's get the obvious out of the way, you made a good choice for the Chargers. They need to upgrade their G positions and maybe Cann can do that. If we don't go OL, we have to get someone who can strengthen the front seven, either a DE/NT or an OLB. NT because they have a serviceable veteran playing there but not a definitive answer for the future, DE because our starting DE Kendall Reyes is a huge waste of space and Corey Liuget, if he gets his contract extension, needs help along the DL because he is the only guy getting double-teamed game in and game out. OLB is a need too because Dwight Freeney and Jarret Johnson may not return next year, Melvin Ingram can't stay healthy, Jerry Attaochu is an unknown (not sure if he is a starter but not sure if he is a specialist either) and they have nothing behind that position truth be told. WR is a need to because Rivers needs more targets to throw to; he has Keenan Allen, Ladarius Green and Antonio Gates isn't slowing down, but Malcom Floyd is getting older and he can't do what he's doing forever.
That last sentence, is a downright lie! We don't need to spend a high-round draft pick on a RB. We may need one because Ryan Mathews may not return but we don't need to draft one early. Also, Donald Brown is getting released at the end of the season, for being a complete bum and a FA bust and Branden Oliver isn't the guy either. He could take Brown's place next year, but he isn't the guy. Any team can get a RB from anywhere, but the Chargers are in no hurry to get one.

I am not complaining about Peters, but I think I would rather have Fowler than Peters at this point. The Steelers can get away with sub-par CB play if they have a good Pass Rush...which they haven't this season (Worilds leads the team with 4.5 sacks). It seems they're always weighing pass rushers vs corners. But they've got so many young rushers, what is one more going to do? Would Fowler start over Worilds, Jones and Harrison? I think they need a corner more and I thought Fowler was a reach even in the end of the first. There a couple other guys on the rise who might work like the Hawaiian player from Washington, but I think Pittsburgh won't reach into second round talent.

He could take Brown's place next year, but he isn't the guy. Any team can get a RB from anywhere, but the Chargers are in no hurry to get one. I still think Donald Brown can get it done, and if you can't see the potential in Brandon Oliver that's crazy. Runningbacks don't just stop being good after four games of elite play. I expect that Matthews career is winding down and Oliver will get the majority of the carries, and Brown will hold onto his job as the #3 or get a lot of carries if Matthews gets hurt again. Attaochu wasn't ready to contribute, but he is talented and still developing, so I think he can hold down one starting OLB job, and maybe Ingram and Johnson can hold down the other. Just glancing over the roster, it didn't seem to have any huge holes, but Cann was a top 16 player who fell to them, and guard might be the only position other than RB or WR where a player would have a shot to start for San Diego year one.

The Lions have Reiff at LT and really like how he has looked there. I know nothing about the guy you have mocked to us, but if he can play LG or RT then I have no problem with the pick since OL is a need for us next year. I wouldn't mind Gurley in Detroit either. Reggie Bush is probably going to be a cap casualty this off season and I agree with Bell being able to carry the load until Gurley is healthy. Taking Gurley tho would be like the Ebron pick this year. Its odd as a Lions to not be thinking about the draft this late in the season. Typically I'd already have my research done and my wish list for the draft. I haven't even thought about it. Interesting. I pulled their depth chart and saw Cornellius Lucas ahead of Reiff, so I didn't think Reiff was working out. Is he just injured? Or is the depth chart wrong? And the other starter is LaAdrian Weddle who I remember was pretty bad against the Bears on Thanksgiving.

And the other starter is LaAdrian Weddle who I remember was pretty bad against the Bears on Thanksgiving. Rieff missed one game and Lucas started on Thanksgiving for him. Just an outdated depth chart. Waddle is an excellent depth player but not a great starter. He can come in and take some snaps a game and look good but thru out the game he will start getting beat. LT: Rieff, Lucas (solid, no draft need there) LG: Sims (Wont be back next year. Need new starter, and depth) C: Raiola (if he's back next year hes most likely a backup) RG: Warford, Swanson (Warford is a beast, Swanson is most likely the starting C next year.) RT: Waddle, Reynolds (stated above) Rieff is a "Gaverage" player. (Not good but better than average.) Lucas played a lot of RT to start the year with all the injuries we had and didn't look great there but started at LT on Thanksgiving and looked a lot better there. Sims is aging and its showing. Most of the pressure on Stafford has come up the middle between Sims and Raiola. Swanson should upgrade the C position. Warford is set in at RG as a mauler (side note, how is Warmack doing? He was on my wish list the year he came out.) And Waddle and Reynolds are serviceable backups. We also have Corey Hillard at RT but I don't see him being much better than Waddle or Reynolds has been. This off season we need: OG-at least 2, 1 starter, 1 backup to play either LG or RG. C- 1 backup RT- 1 starter. I only care what two people think for me. My mom and my best friend. I will not apologize for anything I post. If you don't like the comments above this you have two options: act like an adult and PM me or ignore it, or act like a child and realize why my Ex girlfriends call me Jackass.
