2021 RCF Mock Draft: Discussion, Trades and Miscellany

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
@Falb7 just took one of my favorite players in the entire draft.

McGrone is exactly the type of player the Browns should look to target if we want to draft a linebacker. Dude is an absolute stud on the field, and injury issues may keep guys low in the draft this year if teams can't do medical checks due to COVID.

Nice pick man.
 
Gotta love a RB with the last name Gainwell. I don't care how good you are, if your last name is Loseyards, I'm not drafting you.

What about Rachad Wildgoose Jr (CB Wisconsin)? You can't go wrong when you make it a literal wild goose chase for opposing offenses to take a shot downfield.

However, in my mind, nothing will ever beat Pitt's former place kicker Chris Blewitt.

Wildgoose has 13 career pass interference/defensive holding penalties.

This is exactly why I love draft season.
 
Well for the Packers I ended up with

1st Round WR Terrance Marshall LSU

2nd Round Draft pick traded for WR Christian Kirk and Safety Deionte Thompson

3rd Round DT Tyler Shelvin
OT Spencer Brown

I have one more pick to go, but what ya guys think? Lol

I think you took far too much time making your pick!
 
Listening to a draft podcast talk about Davis Mills: "His absolute, peak peak peak case, where if everything pans out for him, his absolute ceiling is Kirk Cousins... and the chance he reaches that? Roughly 0%... Saying Kirk Cousins is EXTREMELY generous."

"Best case is he goes to Indy, and sits on the bench with Frank Reich as a QB3 so they can see MAYBE if there's something there. I want the best for him, and that situation might be the best place for him."

@Jordan :chuckle:

about an hour in.
Brett Kolman knows infinitely more about football than I do. Trust him...

But I think Kirk Cousins is a fair top-25th percentile outcome. I think he has a higher ceiling, but dude really has a lot of work to do. I just think he is better than anyone else outside of the top-5 and by a pretty substantial margin.

I think the top 5 are pretty solidly Lawrence, Wilson, Fields, Lance, Jones... but outside of that, I have Kellen Mond head-and-shoulders above everyone else as the only guy with starting, franchise-QB upside. I'd put Jamie Newman next as the best developmental QB prospect.

I just don't see it with Mills.

I'm also incredibly biased, because I didn't look into him until after Brett and EJ tore him apart. So throw bias on top of being a shit evaluator of quarterbacks and... my opinion isn't worth much.

I really like Kellen Mond. He does some crazy shit, but he is a solid QB prospect.

I think his mechanics and technical adeptness are pretty poor and that makes it really hard for me to evaluate. Physically, he has the necessary skills. What worries me is, while he has a strong arm, his numbers throwing it deep and intermediate is not that good. He did not attempt many deep passes from the film I watched before making the WFT pick. His accuracy on intermediate passes outside the numbers is 35% and 26% on deep passes outside the numbers.

I think he is a great pick for a team with a starting QB for the next few years. Bucs could be good. He needs to be able to sit for two or three years with a great QB coach.

Honestly, for anyone grading Kellen Mond, I'd encourage them to just watch his 2020 film. He improved so much... it's like someone closing the book on Hurts after seeing him at Alabama, and disregarding what he did at Oklahoma.

The deep ball stuff is certainly an area that is not a strength of his. I don't think it ever will be, and that's a scary limitation.

Kids who not only have the talent, but work to get better, are always guys who I gravitate towards.

I get major Dak vibes... not because they're similar in terms of playstyle at all, but guys who early on in their career were looked at one way, and then the shine wore off, and are going to be drafted far later than they should be because some view them as stale or "sinkers" instead of risers.

If Kellen Mond played for Alabama, that position hierarchy probably looks a bit different right now.
