2013 Mock Drafts

[Metallica0688]

Pre-week 11 draft . Again no trades here .

Now just going off here with 34 players on the roster next year without releasing anyone 21 players would remain on the team that were Al Davis signings . Reggie works to get all the high priced players to restructure their contracts to being friendly deals for us and free up cap space .
While also giving Dennis some much needed Talent to the defense that is sorely lacking here for us .
That yes is risky looking at the season with 19 rookies going into the year here but with then able to see some of these high priced players will be off the team in 2014 .
That 2014 is draft can be used to get a for the rest of the needs for us
Franchise QB - Arron Murray / Tyler Bray / A.J. McCarron ?
LT or RT James Hurst-North Carolina or David Bakhtiari-Colorado
DT to replace Kelly Bennie Logan-LSU or Kwame Geathers-Georgia
MLB to replace McClain unless Compton is already done this ? Andrew Jackson-WKU or James Morris-Iowa
CB as Huff is a free agent Nickell Robey-USC or Bennett Jackson-ND


1st rd *Bjoern Werner-DE-FSU
nonstop motor, love for the game and obvious passion shows up on every play

3rd rd Bacarri Rambo-FS-Georgia
Bacarri Rambo has a knack for swarming to the ball.
So does his favorite player, Baltimore Ravens safety Ed Reed. Teammates and coaches have said that Rambo reminds them most of Reed when asked to compare the Georgia safety to an NFL player.


4th rd Adrian Bushell-CB-Louisville
He plays like a seasoned veteran, showing good anticipation and discipline to recognize receiver's intended route and making a play on the ball.

5th rd (Comp)Sio Moore-OLB-UConn
At his size, Moore will need to continue to improve his strength in taking on and shedding blocks, but he reads the action quickly and has the speed to close, making him a classic 4-3 weakside linebacker candidate.

6th rd Josh Johnson-CB-Purdue
he plays fast and aggressive with adequate size, not shying away from getting his hands dirty. Johnson has done a nice job developing his instincts and pass awareness .

7th rd (via Car) Chris Jones-DT-Bowling Green
Non stop motor , high energetic player that is a consistent threat to bringing pressure to the opposing offense . Quick and Agile player will pair nicely in the defensive line rotation and can play inside or out .

7th rd Jordan Kovacs-SS-Michigan
He might be a liability in man coverage, but his approach to the game and overachieving attitude will find him a home at the next level. Kovacs might not be a top-100 pick next April, but he is at-worst a special teams stud who probably will exceed expectations, the same way he has done in Ann Arbor.
Might make the 53 man roster but his Attitude will make him a hit with the staff that will make him a hard choice to cut from the team .

7th rd (Comp)Manase Foketi-OT-West Texas A&M
Foketi has a stout, lengthy frame with aggressive hand use and the ability to handle speed rushers. He needs to clean up his fundamentals, but the raw skills are there for him to make a pro roster.


Now for the remaining 11 spots are going to be filled with UDFA
QB Casey Brockman-Murray State
is a consistent passer around 70.8% with 25 TD to 8 int on the year over 3,423 yards with adding in 6 rushing TD's and 30 yards on 81 carries
RB D.J. Harper-Boise State
TE Philip Lutzenkirchen-Auburn
OG Chris Jacobson-Pittsburgh
was overshadowed by Lucas Nix but is worth the signing here to add some competition
OT Tanner Hawkinson-Kansas
Raw but potential is there to be a solid depth player and maybe someday starter .
OC James Ferentz-Iowa
Is well coached by Kirk and should be a nice depth behind Wiz
CB Kenny Okoro-Wake Forest
has good size and length for the position, doing a nice job with his body positioning and awareness to make plays on the ball. He needs to clean up his footwork and stay balanced in his drops, but his defensive smarts and anticipation will earn him a shot at the next level.
FS Ray Polk-Colorado
Polk looks the part, offering an exciting combination of size and athleticism and is a fearless hitter.
WR Marcus Sales-Syracuse
Sales has good speed for the position with the balance and concentration to reel-in tough receptions while still making an impact after the catch. He has a lean frame and needs to improve his overall consistency, but the raw skills are evident.
MLB Will Compton-Nebraska
He isn't the most fluid athlete, but he flashes natural football instincts with physical hand use and accurate angles to the ballcarrier.
QB Colby Cameron-Louisiana Tech
Nice pickup here for us and to add some pressure on Pryor to step up his game

[RaiderfanCT]

Raiders picking #5 overall. Trade back to #18 overall with the Dallas Cowboys for a Second and Fourth round draft picks. Trade Darren McFadden to anyone for as high a pick as possible (I'll say 2nd round along with us sending a future late rounder) and trade Rolando McClain and a 7th Round pick for a 4th Round pick. 5th and 7th compensation and additional 7th from Carolina (Murphy trade). Raiders move to a 3-4 defense.

1st Round - Louis Nix - NT - Notre Dame
Redshirt SO who may leave early if ND is able to win the NC. Big, disruptive
2nd Round - Giovanni Bernard - RB - UNC
Explosive playmaker with good speed and receiving ability. His skills remind me of a LeSean McCoy-type player
2nd Round - Oday Aboushi - OT - Virginia
Great athlete who has improved his run blocking to complement his skill in pass blocking
3nd Round - Shayne Skov - ILB - Stanford
Aggressive, emotional, strong run defender, and fantastic instincts
4th Round - Leon McFadden - CB - San Diego State
4th Round - Mario Benavides - C - Louisville
4th Round - Travis Long - OLB - Washington State
5th Round - D.J. Swearinger - FS - South Carolina
6th Round - Josh Johnson - CB - Purdue
7th Round - Greg Blair - ILB - Cincinnatti
7th Round - Montori Hughes - NT - Tennessee-Martin

CB - Leon McFadden
FS - Michael Huff
SS - Tyvon Branch
CB - Ron Bartell

K - Sebastian Janikowski
P - Marquette King

Long Term Analysis
Needs still include QB of the Future, #1 WR, Elite TE, O-line depth (always), D-Line depth (always), LB depth (Needed in 3-4), #1 Corner, and FS (if Swearinger doesn't impress long term) I will do a 2014 mock later to follow up on this one.

[Metallica0688]

Not a bad draft brother Nix , Bernard , Skov , McFadden , Long , Johnson and Hughes nice . I like Skov and Chase Thomas if we could swing both of those two be awesome .

But do you really see the Lions grabbing Kelly with having Suh and Fairly there already ?

But do you really see the Lions grabbing Kelly with having Suh and Fairly there already ?

I don't actually expect anyone to take on Kelly's contract; I just mock him because I want more picks to play around with and Kelly gone.

I like Stacy a lot and I think in my scenario we lose DMC and unless something changes Taiwan Jones could be shown the door too, so we would have need for probably more than 1 RB during the draft/FA process.

I could easily see the draft unfolding like that though (not necessarily those same players), with our "impact" picks being made on the defensive side and our offensive picks mainly coming later...players that need time to develop that can actually sit at most positions.

[RaiderfanCT]

2014 Mock with no trades (even I have standards) with the Raiders having all of their picks.

Round 1 - Austin Seferian-Jenkins - TE - Washington
Elite TE prospect with phenomenal pass catching and blocking ability.
Round 2 - Tajh Boyd - QB - Clemson
Good mix of passing and athleticism.
Round 3 - Quandre Diggs - CB - Texas
Physical corner with decent man cover skills.
Round 4 - Hakeem Smith - S - Louisville
Good in run support and in playing a FS role.
Round 5 - Spencer Long - OG - Nebraska
Tough interior blocker.
Round 6 - Ryne Giddens - DE/OLB - USF
Athletic enough to thrive across from Aaron Lynch.
Round 7 - Joe Kruger - DE - Utah
Tough run defender.

Long Term Analysis
Needs still include depth (always) a #1 receiver, and more secondary help.

[Metallica0688]

Guys In Blue will be replaced between the next two years .
Needs still for us : Franchise QB , RB , OT depth , DT depth ,and LB depth

RB could be solved UDFA root like Reggie is shown at Green Bay to do .
Moore maybe he could be Reggie's Farve in a sign instead of trade path ?

2013
1st rd Bjoern Werner-DE-FSU
nonstop motor, love for the game and obvious passion shows up on every play and can get to the QB .

3rd rd Bacarri Rambo-FS-Georgia
Bacarri Rambo has a knack for swarming to the ball.
So does his favorite player, Baltimore Ravens safety Ed Reed. Teammates and coaches have said that Rambo reminds them most of Reed when asked to compare the Georgia safety to an NFL player.

4th rd Adrian Bushell-CB-Louisville
He plays like a seasoned veteran, showing good anticipation and discipline to recognize receiver's intended route and making a play on the ball.

6th rd Josh Johnson-CB-Purdue
he plays fast and aggressive with adequate size, not shying away from getting his hands dirty. Johnson has done a nice job developing his instincts and pass awareness .

6th rd (Comp) A.J. Klein-MLB-Iowa State
Tough interior run defender and great tackling ability.

7th rd (Via Car.) Chris Jones-DT-Bowling Green
Non stop motor , high energetic player that is a consistent threat to bringing pressure to the opposing offense . Quick and Agile player will pair nicely in the defensive line rotation and can play inside or out .

7th rd Jonas Celian-OLB-West Virginia Wesleyan
This kid can get after the QB look at his stats from the last season and so far this year .
First team all-Super Region I ... First team All-WVIAC ... started all 11 games at defensive end ... registered 67 tackles on the year with 21 for a loss, 12 sacks and one interception ... tallied 16 tackles against Seton Hill (9/24) ... returned interception for touchdown against Glenville State (10/22)

This season is got 34 Tackle 9.5 sacks 13.5 TFL 1 FF 2 FR 1 INT 2 QB hurries so far in the 2012 season as he is moved to OLB now . 6'1" 210 lbs

7th rd (comp) Brian Mulroe-OG-Northwestern
Mulroe has good lateral quickness with the mobility to get out in space and block at the second level, but can be too much of a waist-bender at times and needs to keep his butt close to the ground. He blocks with a mean streak and tenacious attitude, delivering a blow off the snap and playing with heavy hands.

2014

1st rd James Hurst-OT-North Carolina-OT
Hurst has the size and natural athleticism to hold his own on an island, but needs to continue and develop his footwork and technique, using proper angles.

2nd rd Akeem Spence-DT-Illinois
Naturally strong with the raw power to move blockers where he wants, gaining leverage and fighting through the whistle. Spence uses his quickness off the snap to attack and use his physical nature to aggressively battle his way into the backfield .

3rd rd James Morris-MLB-Iowa
Tackling machine , Toughness and Instincts and Defensive leader of the Hawkeye defense . Would be nice to pair with the Iowa State Cyclone Klein to be the linebackers for the 3-4 defense for us .

4th rd Carrington Byndom-CB-Texas
Byndom's lean frame allowed him to be pushed around by some of the bigger, more physical receivers in the conference, but his agility and hand-eye coordination quickly established him as a cornerback to think twice about challenging.

5th rd Charles Leno-RT-Boise State
Be an ideal OL player for us at RT and is agile and footwork to excel in this scheme.

6th rd Ben Gardner-DE-Stanford
Solid all around balance player and is shown to be a nice Leader on and off the field too .

7th rd L'Damian Washington-WR-Missouri
Explosive wideout who looks to looks to step up his contributions .

[Metallica0688]

That we see the Raider go and trade the following players

Darren McFadden to the Detroit Lions for a 3rd rd pick and conditional 2014 pick
Rolando McClain to the New Orleans Saints for a 5th rd pick .

That Reggie is signed the following players as free agents to the team after re-signing his own free agents
Giving them a slight bump in pay then their previous deals
Kevin Smith-RB-Lions-$605,000 to a two year deal worth $2 million about $750,000 guaranteed
Phillip Loadholt-RT-Minn-$918,750 to a 4 year deal worth $4 million with $1.5 million guaranteed
Jamarca Sanford-S-Minn $ 627,318 to a two year deal worth $1.5 million with $750,000 guaranteed
Paul Kruger-LB-Bal-$865,000 to a 4 year deal worth about $5 million with $2 million guaranteed

So that is right now before the draft 43 players on the roster for us .

That UDFA will be brought in for OG, OC, OT, DT, DE, K and CB


Draft
That we trade down from the 5th overall pick and get the Bucs 20th overall pick and 2nd rd pick

1st rd Ezekiel Ansah-DE-BYU
It was easy to see what Phil Savage and the Senior Bowl scouts saw in Ansah, who dominated Idaho Saturday night, playing both with his hand in the ground as a defensive end and as a stand-up rusher.

2nd rd Chase Thomas-OLB-Stanford
He is tough to contain because of his energetic playing style and quick feet to avoid blockers, using arm-over technique to gain leverage and break through the line of scrimmage. Thomas plays disciplined with a high football IQ.

3rd rd Shayne Skov-MLB-Stanford
Instant starter for us and quickly makes fans forget about #55

3rd rd(Via Lions)Bacarri Rambo-FS-Georgia
The player at FS that Huff never was for us

4th rd Dennis Johnson-RB-Arkansas
Versatile back that can be the #3 runner and return KO/Punts for us

5th rd (via Saints)B.W. Webb-CB-William & Mary
Small but the kid is a ballhawk and solid coverage too

6th rd A.J. Klein-MLB-Iowa State
Tackling Machine and Leader too

6th rd (comp)Josh Johnson-CB-Purdue
Tough Physical defender and not shy of contact in the run support either

7th rd (Via Car) Joe Madsen-OC-WVU
Ideal fit for the ZBS

7th rd R.J. Dill-OT-Rutgers
Solid depth to push Willie for a roster spot

7th rd (Comp)Ray Polk-FS-Colorado
Hard hitter and special teams contributor

[RaiderAg]

The love affair on DraftTek with Sam Montgomery continues...I'd rather have Luke Joeckel.

Raiders picking No. 5 overall. Round 3, No. 69 Overall, huh huh huh, you said...n/m, Raiders take QB E.J. Manuel, don't like that pick.

The love affair on DraftTek with Sam Montgomery continues...I'd rather have Luke Joeckel.

Raiders picking No. 5 overall. Round 3, No. 69 Overall, huh huh huh, you said...n/m, Raiders take QB E.J. Manuel, don't like that pick.

Don't understand that E.J. Manuel pick at all, mainly because of the other talented players that could actually help this team that are sitting there:

DT Kawann Short
OT Dallas Thomas
ILB Shayne Skov
DE Michael Buchanan
OT Oday Aboushi
CB Terry Hawthorne
RB Kenjon Barner
TE Joseph Fauria
TE Zach Ertz

All of those are drafted after Manuel and would have all been better picks for the Raiders.

[RAIDER_Dave]

Jamarcus 1st
Campbell 4th
Pryor 3rd
Palmer 1st and 2nd

did I leave anyone out?

If we spend another high pick on a QB I might have a stroke.

Jamarcus 1st
Campbell 4th

Palmer 1st and 2nd

did I leave anyone out?

If we spend another high pick on a QB I might have a stroke.

if we spend a 3rd round pick and he's the bpa I won't have any issue with that. Especially if we end up with a combo like Joeckel and Dysert. Long term answers for the two most important offensive positions is nothing to scoff at.

[RaiderfanCT]

Raiders picking #5 overall. Trade back with Philadelphia(Luke Joeckel)to #6 for 2nd and 4th Round draft picks. Raiders then trade Darren McFadden for a 3rd Round draft pick and trade Rolando McClain (plus 7th round pick) for a 4th Round draft pick. 5th, 6th and 7th Round picks from compensation and 7th from Carolina for Murphy. Raiders move to a 3-4 scheme.

1st Round - Taylor Lewan - OT - Michigan
Solidifies the LT spot. Great length to deal with speed rushers and plays mean in the run game
2nd Round - Sylvester Williams - DT - UNC
Strong with decent pass rush potential who will rotate as a NT in a Jay Ratliff mold
3rd Round - Shayne Skov - ILB - Stanford
Emotional leader with great blitzing and run defending ability
3rd Round - Baccari Rambo - S - Georgia
Rangy safety who is a great tackler and is used to playing in front of a 3-4 defense
4th Round - Leon McFadden - CB - San Diego State
Solid man-cover corner who can start right away
4th Round - Travis Long - OLB - Washington State
All-heart pass rusher with good get off the line ability. Plays all out.
4th Round - Mario Benavides - C - Louisville
Tough interior blocker.
5th Round -Margus Hunt - DE - SMU
Great length for ST as well as being a solid 3-4 end.
6th Round - Montori Hughes - NT - Tennessee-Martin
True NT depth. Tough to move at the point of attack
6th Round - Devin Taylor - DE - South Carolina
Solid rotational 3-4 end who thrives in run support. Little pass rush potential
7th Round - Ryan Griffin - TE - Connecticut
Good hands, willing blocker and good length in the RZ
7th Round - Charles Dieuseul - ILB - Mount Union
Solid ST depth with quality potential.

2014 Mock Draft
Round 1 - Sean Mannion - QB - Oregon State
Elite size, strong arm, decent mobility. Franchise QB material
Round 2 - Eddie Lacy - RB - Alabama
Tough, quick, strong. Typical Alabama RB
Round 3 - Marcus Roberson - CB - Florida
Good size, speed, and ball skills to be a starting CB
Round 4 - Gabe Ikard - G/C - Oklahoma
Solid interior lineman who is plug and play.
Round 5 - Ray Drew - DE/DT - Georgia
DE depth.
Round 6 - Jordan Zumwalt - OLB - UCLA
ST depth
Round 7 - Lamarcus Joyner - S - Florida State
Undersized but ST depth nonetheless.

OLB - Travis Long
ILB - Shayne Skov
ILB - Phillip Wheeler
OLB - Miles Burris
CB - Marcus Roberson
FS - Baccari Rambo
SS - Tyvon Branch
CB - Leon McFadden

Long Term Analysis
A couple of a solid drafts get us a competitive core of players. Secondary is still week and I believe we still need a #1 WR but those are postitions that can be filled either in UDFA or FA. Taking a shot on Mannion's health is my only concern. If Bridgewater is able to improve and become a more pure passer he'd be considered as well. I'm not a Bray or Thomas fan although either can take the next step and solidify themselves as a 1st round QB.
