Mock Draft Discussion/Analysis

Like the Jennings pick, he'll be in Miami and I think he'll do well. Been burnt too many years in a row on the potential of Nicks, maybe this will be the year he stays healthy.......

5.01 Jordy Nelson, WR, GB


Really like this pick. Great value in my opinion, and shows the depth at the position for 2013.

Nicks and Jennings are the two I also considered at the 5.04. Nice picks.

Really, really, really like that Garcon pick. Assuming health is there, Garcon is going to be great next year

I already like McCoy at 6, but with the news of Chip Kelly being hired in Philly- I now LOVE IT

I think Garcon went way too early. I had him slotted one pick later

Just add health and a budding star WR.

I wonder if he found a cure for the dropsies. Seems he had a lot of those in Indy, but maybe I was just sensitive to it from having him in fantasy leagues.

I think pick 12 is the worst

Preferred Ryan over Manning here... But that is due more to the fact that I try to avoid QB/WR combos (I selected Thomas in the 2nd). Regardless, I see Manning and Ryan as the end of the elite QB tier, and felt compelled to select one of those guys here.

I have Stafford in the elite QB tier, so I was happy to get him at 5.10. He threw for just under 5000 yards, and his TD's were down from 2011, but I think they'll go up next year. I really like the Steve Smith pick. If I knew a QB wasn't going to be picked at the turn (I really thought 1 would be picked), I would've picked him and then Stafford at 6.03. To thrifty & TNF: Would either of you picked Stafford at the turn if I didn't pick him at 5.10?

With that said, I really like Shorts this year. He was the 20th ranked WR (fantasy points per game) in this scoring format, so I'm happy getting him as the 30th overall WR.

Agree with the above post. Stafford or Smith were not getting past me at 6.04.
Thinking, okay hoping, that a new head coach will help Maclin out this season.
