Re: RSR 2014 NFL Mock Draft - Picks Thread
I have to say, the Eagles pick is a head scratcher. CB is behind a couple other more pressing needs and Watkins is a 3rd-4th rounder.

Temp19 and the Colts are on the clock.

Re: RSR 2014 NFL Mock Draft - Picks Thread
Hey...I could be off on Watkins, but I haven't seen a mock with him even sniffing the 2nd round. CB is definitely a need, but OLB and WR are bigger needs (according to those who follow the team).
BTW...I didn't say it was outlandish. As a matter of fact, one of the mocks I've seen actually had Watkins going to the Eagles (it was in the 3rd round though which made a little more sense to me).

Re: RSR 2014 NFL Mock Draft - Picks Thread
I personally rate Watkins ahead of some of the other corners because I think he has more upside than guys like Desir, McGill, and Roberson. Just my opinion.
I agree that OLB is a need, but in this mock up the Eagles took Kony Ealy, who I imagine would project to be more of a RUSH or SAM linebacker in the Eagle's hybrid 3-4.
Regarding WR...I'm not really sure at all what Chip Kelly is thinking. DeSean Jackson may have been a douche, but he fits that offense pretty well. Maybe they think Damaris Johnson can fulfill that role?
Maybe in this particular mock it will work out for the Eagles to look at someone like Josh Huff, Mike Davis, or Cody Lattimer in the 3rd round?Disclaimer: The content posted is of my own opinion.

Or maybe Kelly would like to grab someone like Dri Archer somewhere around the 4th or 5th round to be his new DeSean, without the headaches. I bet he thinks he can turn a lot of guys into playmakers in his offense.

Re: RSR 2014 NFL Mock Draft - Picks Thread
Still can't believe the Colts traded their 1st rounder for Trent Richardson. If they had held on to that pick they would still be able to get a RB this year. Hyde, Mason, Sankey, Hill would all be there for the taking in the first. All of them would be better than Richardson, with Carlos Hyde being a perfect fit for them, IMO.

Re: RSR 2014 NFL Mock Draft - Picks Thread
Daniel Jeremiah puts CB is #1 priority, WR #4; Bleacher Report puts CB #2, WR #3; the beat writer out of New Jersey puts CB at #4, WR #3, OLB #1. CBS Mock drafts (5 guys) have WR 3 times and CB 2 times in the first round. I think there is no clear consensus, and Roseman isn't exactly predictable.

Re: RSR 2014 NFL Mock Draft - Picks Thread
There is also the fact that they played 2013 without Jeremy Macklin, so he could be the 'replacement' for Jackson, and the need for a WR isn't one of those top priorities. Plus add Sproles and a 3rd-4th round complimentary WR to that mix and Kelly could simply use guys differently in that offense.
