Yet another Mock Draft

                                Yes, this is yet another Mock draft, but before I start, I will go over our needs and  where I rank them. The first is obviously NT because the defense at is the centerpiece to any 3-4 and lets the rest of the front 7 do their job to the best of their abilities. The second is a young SOLB becaause while we need a guy to play FS, if we get consistant pressure on the QB the FS's job will be a lot easier. The third major need is FS / WR. really if we get a NT and a SOLB, then get a #1 WR we will have a top 15 Defense, thanks to Nolan and a top 10 Offense. Obiously if we upgrade FS our defense will be awesome.  Then the final two needs are a young RB and a new nickel back to replace Allen eventually or right now, depending on his legal problem.

Then we could use upgrades at RT and TE, the depth at OG. 

                                      1st Round: Dan Williams NT Tennessee

                                      We really need to have a NT, and he is the best one availalble and has the best chance to come in right away and start (wouldn't count on it though). If he is gone then take Cody because he will be gone by our sencond pick.

                                     2nd Round: Jerry Hughes SOLB TCU

                                      Even if/when we resign JT back we still need a replacement and he is my favorite minus JPP. Kindle is likely to be gone and he is too weak at the POA to be taken by any organization under Parcells. Hughes was an important part of TCU's defense and hopefully he can be a part of our too. If we can't get him we should get Nate Allen out of USF or Aaron Hernandez out of UF

                                     3rd round: Ben Tate HB Auburn

                                     We really need to get one because our offense relies on a dominate backfeild. With Ronnie not at full speed due to his injury last season and Ricky getting older, we need a guy who will give Hilliard a run for his money as our RB of the future. Lets face some facts, Ronnie will be slowed by his recovery off of a season ending injury and Ricky can't handle the full workload anymore. It really takes to offseason for a guy to fully be back at full speed from that type of injury. Ricky looked awful at the latter part of the season and will retire at the end of the season. So this pick isn't filling an obvious need, but it is fixing a leak before it becomes a flood. If we can't get him Blount is not that much of a disappointment. But be careful of his temper, as evidenced by the video. If that was one time, fine but  he was suspended. With that said he can play.

                                     4th round: Major Wright FS UF / Robert Johnson FS Utah

                                     We need a guy to play FS and while I'd rather get Sharper to teach our young safeties (Clemons and Culver) we already have I'm not going to do any FA signings our trades. These guys are both Ballhawkers that will be available later on in the draft. Wright probrably won't be here hence the second pick. If neither of these two are ther we should get Donovan Warren out of Michigan. With Will Allen maybe facing jail time and Nate Jones leaving we need a nickel back. Otherwise we would be giving Jason Allen the starting nickelback position, something I'm not comortable with.

                                    I won't go into farther because beyond here is anyone's guess, not that all of this wasn't one big guess.

( Johnson had no highlight films and I got Highlights and lowlights if I could find them. otherwise they are just highlights. For the ideos click on the names :-). Major Wright only had highlights for the 09 LSU game, and no overall highlights.)
