2012 Texans Talk Mock Draft

Cowboys on the clock, I see SteelB is here. Please continue to PM or email the next person when you make your pick. If you think you will be out a while, send your board of top X players to me & Super Mario.

14- Cowboys- SteelBTexan
15- Eagles- Shaft75
16- Jets- kiwitexansfan
17- Bengals- Kaiser Toro
18- Chargers- Srrono
19- Bears- MistaRed
20- Titans- Señor Stan
21- Bengals- Kaiser Toro
22- Browns- Dutchrudder
 
With the 14th pick in the TT mock draft the Dallas Cowboys select Janoris Jenkins CB North Alabama.

With the Cowboys drafting Jenkins and signing Brandon Carr in FA (Rumored) a major weakness has turned into a strength. Jenkins is a grear cover guy, as witnessed by his shutting down Julio Jones and A.J. Green during the 2010 season. Although he's relatively short Jenkins has a great vertical and long arms. He ran a 4.44 at the combine. He's a great tackler in the open field. (A major weakness of the Cowboys CB's last yr.)

Jenkins is the most talented CB in this draft. IMHO and wouldn't be available except for 2 mary jane busts and a bar fight. (I dont have a problem with guys who smoke weed.) Jerrah has decided to go back to the 80's and Jenkins would be the kinda guy Jimmy Johnson would take.

I can see the Cards reaching for OL help here after DeCastro, Martin, and Reiff are gone since they don't have a second round pick. However I'm not much of a reacher and instead I'll look to help the Arizona Cardinals offense in another way.

With the 13th pick, the Arizona Cardinals select Michael Floyd, WR from Notre Dame. This should help Larry Fitzgerald with his double-triple coverage issues. The last few seasons rookie wide receivers have had about a 50% chance to make splash with their new teams, and the Cards gamble slightly on this one. Luke Kuechly is also one of my top 4 for the Cards who also consisted of DeCastro and Martin. LK might be a safer pick but Arizona could be desperate for some sexiness.

So ya, Michael Floyd

Like this pick

Having Floyd and Fitz should really open things up for the running game. As well as making the OL's job easier.

Everybody has done a great job so far.

I PM'ed Shaft, He will probably make his pick when he gets to work tomorrow.
 
Jenkins is a good pick.

I was starting to think that I might have to go in that direction just because of the value he presents around about here.
 
I like all the picks so far, except for Poe (sorry TK) :)

I haven't seen anyone make a pick that didn't fill a need though (Vikings pick is debatable). A rather interesting trend...

Yeah, for the Cowboys the strength of this draft happens to match up with their needs.

If they can keep Jerrah sober on draft day the Cowboys should be able to add 4 major contributors to the team this yr. (Probably wont happen)
 
With the 15th pick in the 2012 NFL Draft, the Philadelphia Eagles select Luke Kuechly, LB, Boston College

Really no need for explanation... About as obvious as Cushing/Matthews to Texans in 2009. The dream team is in desperate need of players with high football IQ's.
 
Agree that all of the picks so far are hitting needs. Only reach I've seen so far was Poe, no offense to Carolina GM.

Best LB and one of the best players in the draft.

Philly just got better
 
just wondering if your going to update the results round by round or just at the end would be nice to be able to see all the picks made on one page then have to go back through pages.

PS great work on organising the draft dutch!
 
The New York Jets select Trent Richardson, RB, Alabama.

The Jets and new OC Tony Sparano are going to want to pound the rock and hide Sanchize. Richardson has the tools to be special, and give Rex Ryan some smash to go with his mouth.
 
Also I am really impressed with how well this draft is moving in the evening and middle of the night. Do yall sleep at all? haha

NEXT MAN UP


Bengals Kaiser Toro
Chargers Srrono
Bears MistaRed
Titans Señor Stan

The Cincinnati Bengals select OG, Kevin Zeitler, University of Wisconsin.

WOOOO

did not see that coming. Big needs at Corner and WR. and help out at DE.

would love an explanation for this.

Zietler is a great player would love it if the texans got him in the real draft but in the 2nd.
 
With the 18th pick in the 2012 NFL Draft, the San Diego Chargers select MICHAEL BROCKERS DT, Louisiana State

i didn't think the chargers had a big need at NT.
and I'm not sure if brockers is a good fit for the NT position unless you have him play at DE.

again would love an explanation

Need at RG as well. Bengals have had historical off the field problems, with Simpson only adding to that this year. The top two corners have off the field questions and the top RB was just taken. It would be a reach to go with another RB here, and going with a need at RG makes "reaching' for a tarnished CB, or RB more palatable with the 21st. Of course, BPA at WR and LB are in play as well.

yeah forgot about that 2nd pick.
Zietler may be a reach but either way his going to be a stud
 
srrono said:
Thanks SD is a intresting team been a good team but when you really look at them they have a lot of needs.
Click to expand...

They are getting old. They are no longer that 13-3 team that dominated the AFC with LT and Co. Still have a ton of talent, but a lot of their top guys are on the back-end of their career's.

Bengals definitely have a need on the interior line so it fills a need. A bit of a reach because I think he's a 2nd round prospect, but I doubt he would have made it to your 2nd round pick.

I definitely think guys will have the philosophy of drafting for need in this mock because the real draft will be more geared toward that now with the new CBA. It's not as big a deal to reach on a guy anymore because you won't be investing $20-30 mil on him.

I agree. I think teams will do as much as they can in free agency, and then work more to fill holes in the draft regardless of value. It's not nearly as big of a deal now to make a reach or draft a bust, and I really like that setup. Make the rookies earn it, and if they don't then UDFAs like Foster and Brisiel will take their spots.

Great pick

Zietler was my 2nd rated OG. He will be a fixture on the Bengals OL for 10 yrs. Wanted him for the Cowgirls.

I like the way you just took a solid player instead of reacing for need. There will be a very good CB/RB that will be there at 21 and in the 2nd rd.
 
I don't want to have to track back several pages to find the order. Here it is:

19- Bears- MistaRed
20- Titans- Señor Stan
21- Bengals- Kaiser Toro
22- Browns- Dutchrudder
23- Lions- Super Mario
24- Steelers- Stingray
25- Broncos- JCTexan
26- Texans- Group Selection
27- Patriots- Beerlover
28- Packers-nytexan
29- Ravens- WolverineFan
30- 49ers- Rey
31- Patriots- Beerlover
32- Giants- KMG 365
Click to expand...

MistaRed and the Bears are on the clock.
 
I was wondering when Wright was going to go. Cutler will enjoy the anticipation of throwing to Wright, just before he gets sacked.
 
Good pick for da' Bears. That's a decent corp of WR's with Wright, Knox (who they under-utilize severely), Bennett, Hester, and Sanzenbacher. Lots of speed, but not a whole lot of size.

I think, come draft time, CHI best case scenario is Floyd dropping to them but that won't happen.
 
just kidding...

with the 20th pick Bud Adams and his Tennessee Titans select

Dre Kirkpatrick CB Alabama

large_Dre%20Kirkpatrick.jpg


Dre-Kirkpatrick.jpg



Poor interview...check
Busted for weed...check
Irish sounding last name...check
tons of talent, 6'3" and a 4.5 forty time...check

Titans look past the baggage and get Cortland innegan's replacement.
 
I was thinking of taking him at 22... Good pick, lots of talent, fills a need, and he's tall enough to go 1 on 1 with AJ.
 
After failing to acquire RG3 early on in the draft, the Browns continue to build around Colt McCoy and give him the best chance to be successful. After getting Blackmon at #4, they address the offense's second biggest need, Right Tackle, by taking OT Mike Adams with the #22 pick!

Adams.jpg


At 7'7 325 pounds, Adams is big guy that fills a big need. Adams was born in Ohio and played at The Ohio State University, so you know he will become a fan favorite in no time. Tony Pashos is getting old and unreliable and needs to go. He will likely be cut after the draft to save about 2.75 million in cap space. Adams will have several years to work opposite one of the best LTs in the league in Joe Thomas.


Super Mario and the Lions are now on the clock!
 
After missing out on RG3, I bet dutch takes Ryan Tannehill.

Speaking of RG3, why the heck did the Vikings take him? Doesnt make a lick of sense to me.

I don't consider Tannehill worthy of a 1st round pick, nor much of an upgrade over a 3rd year Colt McCoy. If he makes it to 37, I'll consider him, but I would rather fill a real need with a good player than pick him.
