2024 NFL Mock Draft: James Meche of ESPN | NFL Mock Draft Database

ESPN this is why you laid off 20% of your employees to give us this Shitacular mock?


Steelers taking Ladd McConkey over Brian Thomas Jr ???? Passing on Latham, Fashanu, and Q. Mitchell???daphuc is that. And then Fashanu lasts until 32 ?
Jackson Powers-Johnson out of round 1 Comical. Add in Kool-Aid, Barton and Guyton also not in round 1. Maybe 1-2 guys not all 4. Ok Skippy sure that’ll happen .

 

2024 NFL Mock Draft: Doug Farrar of Touchdown Wire | NFL Mock Draft Database

Huh ? Vikings give up 11.23 to move up to 4. Arizona takes Cooper DeJean and Byron Murphy, Minnesota grabs Bo Nix.

Harrison is a blue chipper possibly best player in the draft. Arizona has a ton of draft picks why would they trade back? They wouldn’t

 

With the Jets signing Morgan Moses look
At WR @ 10.
Donald retired look at DT @19
Etc..,

Mocks are kinda pointless until
FA Frenzy calms down

 

Fields is a coming to town for a conditional 6th

I really think it’s important for them to go OL in the first and quite possibly the second. The 2 QB’s we got now are notorious for getting sacked. We need to cement our Oline.

 

Jets also signed OT Tyron Smith def going in another direction @ 10. Don’t be shocked if it’s Bowers

 

I think it’ll be a mistake for the jets not to get an OL with their 1st pick. Smith signed a crazy $20 mil 1 year contract after his recent injury history. But with Smith and Morgan in tow at the tackle positions, I’m sure they think they’re set. I’m guessing Smith goes down by mid season,

 

2024 NFL Mock Draft: Joe Hadawi of Gridiron Heroics | NFL Mock Draft Database

Ok what do the Steelers trade back and gain . Still get Mims but miss on two centers? Barton is still there not sure what logic this dude has .

 

Post-Free Agency 2024 NFL Mock Draft Gets Shakeup With Vikings Trade & An Arms Race For Top QBs | Whiskey Riff

This kid is a fucking idiot crack
Pipe bong show Mescaline addicted weenie mock.

Payton Fucking Wilson ? Passing on Fuagua and Barton. Nevermind Dallas Turner at 21 holy shit this kid is a joke . Brian Thomas Jr. was still There as was Kool-Aid . His fucking logic is to get a cover LB because the Ravens signed Derek Henry

 

That’s what I hate about these mocks that include trades, if you’re going to project a trade, say what the team is receiving for it. I personally don’t really see 3 centers going in the first round. In regards to Burton, was hearing he’s a smart kid that played center as a freshman and the pundents are talking he can do the job in the pros at a high level

 

Ok draft nuts, Steelers gotta draft a WR who can start.
We are so thin after Pickens.
What you guys think?

 

I know Boyd is still considering signing in Pittsburgh. If they can’t get him then I know Allen Robinson is an option to resign on a cheaper deal.

 

Steelers Big Board, Round 1-3 Options (By Grade) - Steelers Depot

It’s a half hour read . Keep
In mind the devalue of Edge rushers and TE this board is based on roster

 

My notes so far. Jordan over rattler. Glad someone put Worthy and McConkey in the 3rd where they belong. I have Bortolni ahead of Limmer , man they got a draft crish on Barton or what . more to come

 

Lots of options I agree with StlCrtn let’s see if Boyd signs or Robinson resigns. Need for OL talent takes precedence over WR in the draft rd 1. At 51 I’d be happy with Pearsall, Legette, Wilson. Just is too early for Malachi Corley Ladd McConkey , Polk they are 3rd round guys. then the talent at CB is hard to ignore on day 2 , thank goodness we have 3 picks. Me I’m not waiting for day 3 I’m grabbing Jordan Travis at 98. The DL talent in this draft is weak. I think you can get McKinley Jackson @119.

 

Pumpkin to sum it up how the board falls:

20 OL
51 Wr/CB
84. CB/WR
97. Travis Jordan
119. McKinley Jackson or OT
178. OT / Jaden Crumedy or Logan Lee
195. WR or RB

 

Let’s discuss centers.

The Cons
Powers-Johnson only 1 year as a Center
Barton only 8 starts at OC a few years ago
Frazier injury in 2023
Van-Pran Granger 295 lbs.

The pros

Powers- Johnson looks the part great size
Barton smart , versatile arm length
Frazier looks like a Steeler wrestling background
Van Pran-Grainger 2 time champ tons of starts at position

now do we trust mocks or do we trust scouts
?
scouts Barton and Powers- Johnson mid to
Late rd 1.
Frazier early to mid 2nd
Van-Pran Grainger rd 3

Mocks

Steelers need a center, shit or get off the pot. If they miss jPJ, Barton or go high value OT @ 20 you’re likely going to have to move up for Frazier . SVPG will not be there @ 84.

thoughts ?

 

.
- Damn I miss Pouncey and DeCastro
- 2nd Rd WR makes so much sense it hurts
- SO glad we don't have to target an ILB, or keep trying to patch it in with FA, fugg yeah Patrick Queen
- QB might be a late late round flyer
- Always appreciate the knowledge

 

I cannot balk at a 1st Rd Center IF he holds the job for 7-8 years. So important. Especially now with Russ n Jus.
Walters football is projecting Powers.
Those guys do homework.
We could use a DB, but I feel the offense needs more attention on draft day.
However, BPA may dictate this.
Totally agree on a REAL Center.
Cannot band-aid this.
