Update on 2010 SB Nation NFL Mock Draft

in 2010 NFL Draft
Email
PrintLast night's trade of Donovan McNabb from Philadelphia to Washington caused a temporary hiccup in production of the 2010 SB Nation NFL Mock Draft, which is taking place over at SB Nation's NFL Draft blog, Mocking the Draft. Thankfully, two things are true - we'd already completed our first round (during which Washington did not take a quarterback), and we weren't so far into the second round that we couldn't backtrack a tad and re-configure the second round to account for Philly's extra pick. Everything's been re-adjusted, and from what I can tell, the second round will keep chugging along as originally scheduled.
Speaking of that completed first round, you can see the entire results after the jump, complete with the percentage of SB Nation readers that graded each selection with an A. (In case you're wondering, our selection of QB Jimmy Clausen for Buffalo was a middle-of-the-pack finisher, beating out 16 of the other 31 picks made in said approval rating.) Each name after the jump will lead you to the pick analysis on Mocking the Draft, and once you're done perusing those results, we'll talk briefly about what's happened thus far in the second round.
Buffalo's second-round selection has been made, by the way, as of yesterday afternoon. It won't be announced officially until tomorrow (Tuesday) night, so feel free to grab a bandwagon in the comments section, and to scorn me when it comes to light that I didn't pick the guy you wanted me to pick.
As for the second round, four picks have become official. USC end Everson Griffen went to St. Louis. Cal back Jahvid Best went to Detroit. Notre Dame receiver Golden Tate now resides in Tampa, and Kansas City nabbed South Florida safety Nate Allen. Philadelphia's pick will air this afternoon, with Cleveland's to follow tonight. Nos. 39 (Oakland) and 40 (San Diego) will fill up time slots tomorrow, and our last pick in this mock draft, No. 41 overall, will air tomorrow night at 9PM ET (for you Lost fans, we'll discuss it more Wednesday morning).
As mentioned up top, grab a bandwagon - whom should we select for Buffalo in the second round? Plus, your thoughts on the first round are, of course, encouraged as well.

I realize a good majority are in love with Clausen.........and while I personally dont approve of the guy....
I understand why he would be selected there…..still doesnt mean I think its a good pick.
As for a guess on the 2nd round selection……I would venture to say…
T.Cody is the pick.
The only cure for a bad today is tomorrow.

On board with you on this one, NorCal
“I realize a good majority are in love with Clausen………and while I personally dont approve of the guy….

I’d definitely rather see a different player taken at #9, but what’s done is done.
Second round pick should be a LT or NT, maybe a pass rusher if a good one is available.
And with the 9th pick of the 2010 NFL Draft, the Buffalo Bills select...
Cody is already gone!
I’d say Saffold to help protect our new franchise QB.

I think Brian has sold me about Saffold, he's a good prospect, just not for Buffalo.

Brian isn't a huge fan of Saffold in Buffalo
I don’t think it’ll happen….
I’m guessing Cam Thomas, a WR or another OL….

Cam Thomas was picked at 40… otherwise it would have been an interesting decision for Brian IMO.

Whoever is there between Cody and Bruce Campbell
I amnot in love with either prospect, but they both fill a huge need. If they are both there I would go with Campbell. He has great upside to fill a huge need. It is much easier to get a NT in the 3rd with Troupe or L. Joseph.
Rodger Saffold or Cam Thomas
At least that’s my guess. I’d probably go Saffold, but I can see Brian going with Thomas because of ‘fit’.
Keep in mind that many of the prospects that come to mind first may be snapped up by PHI, CLE, OAK, or SD. I mean seriously, folks – do y’all really think Bruce Campbell is getting past Oakland? :) (I know you didn’t mention Campbell, Pistol)

But you’re indirectly saying that Saffold and Thomas are both gone. And Campbell. Which would make the pick interesting.
Double down – go with Tebow! The Bills will get a top QB yet!
Yeah, I’m definitely not saying any of those guys are gone. Just to keep it in mind. :)
By the way – there were three guys that I seriously considered for the pick, and

Somehow I don't see this draft even approaching reality.
The Taylor Mays pick is correctly greeted with a 6% approval rating. I don’t get why Denver would pick a centre 11th overall. CJ Spiller will NOT fall all the way to 14, mainly because I think that he’ll be pick at #5 instead of Taylor Mays. And Dez Bryant making it past Miami is rediculous, never mind that he fell all the way to 21! Also I don’t see Philly drafting Anthony Davis. Call it a hunch.
The rest of the draft though is rather reasonable. But the screw ups that I pointed out above will cause for most picks taken after #5 to be wrong. I think those first 4 picks are bang on though.
The more I see, the less I know.
by CanadianBillsFan on Apr 5, 2010 3:17 PM EDT reply actions
Oh and Bruce Campbell not going in the first is also a head scratcher. If Philly is set on selecting an OT I think that they’d go after Campbell before Davis because they’re looking for an RT.

by CanadianBillsFan on Apr 5, 2010 3:20 PM EDT up reply actions
I don’t. Davis would make a FAR better RT than Campbell. He’d make a FAR better LT too, for that matter.

I really think the Seahawks blogger got that one right, honestly.

Seasquawks
Carroll is blowing smoke about Mays. If the Seahawks go Safety Berry is 2x the player Mays will ever be. There are some that believe Berry is the best player in the draft. Carroll just doesn’t want a team to move a head of them to nab Berry—-the Skins and Chiefs would be willing to move to get extra picks.
"Rock and roll is the greatest music that’s ever been. Or ever will be."
Jerry Lee Lewis
I don't really think its smoke screen, ever since Mays stepped on the USC campus, Carroll would not shut up about him
Among other things, Carroll KNOWS what Mays can do, and no one should ever discount what comfort means to a coach and whom they are willing to take due to the fact they know everything a player can and cannot due all because they know them personally and coached them. I sincerely believe that is why Mays may go before Berry simply because Carroll would be much more comfortable with him on the field than he would be with Berry. Even though I agree, personally, that Berry is at least 2 times the player Mays is.
Nix and Chan, the new Cheech and Chong of the Bills, hopefully they will be as successful in business as they were, and not so much the drug fueled comedy act....
This is what the Bills should do, IMO
No. 9 NT Dan Williams
No. 41 TRADE w/Ravens for OT Jarred Gaither
No. 73 OLB Best Available at that spot
No. 105 TRADE w/Redskins for Jason Campbell
I’m not going further than that right now. They need a “quick as a cat, water bug” RB , and another LB, O-linemen for depth.
I like it
Both lines greatly improved, and if guys perform up to potential a pretty potent defense (which is what wins championships). Not to mention a vet QB who Gailey might be able to make work.
by TexasBillsFanatic on Apr 5, 2010 3:29 PM EDT up reply actions
OR...
Take Claussen at #9 and then trade for Gaither. Doesn’t fix both of our lines but it does fix the offensive line and we’d have a QB with a much higher ceiling.
The more I see, the less I know.
by CanadianBillsFan on Apr 5, 2010 3:33 PM EDT up reply actions
Debatable on the ceiling i think
washington hasnt exactly been ideal while hes been there. His head coach literally got play-calling duties forcibly removed from him last year and his line was just as atrocious as ours. Plus I believe he began his career with Joe Gibbs trying to run an offense from 1932, not really conducive to QB success.
He was a 1st round pick too, and one of the knocks on Clausen is that hes so prepared that he doesn’t have much higher to go ceiling-wise.

If the trades I mentioned are available(they do sound plausible based on reports), I think the Bills could improve their overall team much faster than people believe. Still there’s no guarantee that Campbell will be the franchise guy. But a 4th round pick is not much to lose either. I do think he has proven in his 5 years in the league that he’s a better QB than anyone the Bills currently have on their roster.
I’d rather they did it correctly as opposed to quickly, but maybe that’s just me.

I wouldn’t say its heavily risky, and I believe they’d be adding really good young talent to the roster. So I think it would be correct.
Dan Williams – He’s huge, he’s athletic and he’s a space eater. I don’t see him being a bust, though you never say never.
Jarred Gaither – A young and solid talent at LT. Could be locked up for years to come.
OLB – This is where the boys in the draft dept. need to do their homework and find the best one available in the 3rd round to play opposite Maybin.
Jason Campbell – he’s the risk, although a 4th rounder shouldn’t be a high price to pay for the possibility of his failure.
Agreed. Whih is why I’d much rather draft Claussen than trade for Campbell. I think that the Bills might be more successful in the long run with Claussen as opposed to Campbell.

Torrell Troup is a better prospect than Cam Thomas at NT. Otherwise Saffold or Ducasse for OT and Ducasse has much more upside.

Don't think Clausen will be here
NFL Network reported today that Clausen may not be a fit here in Buffalo. Their reason was that Gailey is not enamored with Jimmy’s lack of mobility. I don’t necessarily agree with this. However, it is interesting that QB guru Mike Shanahan does not want him on his team.
I hope the Bills take a tackle in the 1st, A. Davis or even better Bulaga. Then trade down in the 2nd for an extra third to fill our QB / NT / TE needs (or OLB, however TE is such a talented class that I believe a quality complete TE available will be to good to pass up). My ideal draft looks like this,
9/ Bulaga
54/ C. Thomas
71/ D. Gronkowski (injury concerns have him falling)
84/ D. LeFevour
Shanahan has had his greatest success witha wily veteran leading the team… why not try and duplicate that if given the opportunity. Without a statement from Shanahan regarding clausen, i wouldnt be so quick to make that connection. plus… QB guru? id think zone-blocking guru would be more appropriate, maybe value-runningback guru.
And the talking heads are still convinced that since Gailey has coached teams with athletic QBs in the past that he is absolutely dead set on getting a guy who can run. I still have yet to hear of anything from him that makes this sound true.

If true, Trent might as well pack his bags now.

However, it is interesting that QB guru Mike Shanahan does not want him on his team
Bill Polian has passed on a lot of good QBs in his day too. Granted, he had Jim Kelly and Peyton Manning, but I don’t see how that’s much different from making a move for McNabb. How is thinking that using a first rounder on a LT and having a proven stud in Donovan McNabb a better option than Clausen in the first and somebody like Saffold in the 2nd some kind of indictment on Clausen?
And you can’t pick up an extra 3rd by moving down 10 spots in the 2nd. Buffalo got the 51st pick last year to grab Levitre by giving up their 3rd and 4th round pick. If all you’re doing is moving down from 41 to the mid 50s, then you’re maybe getting a 4th in return, probably a 5th.
I signed up for Second Life about a year ago. Back then my life was so great that I literally wanted a second one. In my Second Life I was also a paper salesman and I was also named Dwight. Absolutely everything was the same. Except I could fly. - Dwight Schrute
I think if you’re sold on Clausen as an absolute lock to be a great NFL QB, you can’t NOT take him at 4. If he was a Peyton, Jim Kelly or even Eli Manning for that matter, I believe Mike would take him, that’s all.
I didn’t bother looking up trade values and what not for the sake of saving time. Perhaps we need to kick in a little to get it done. But if a team has their eye on a player they had a 1st round grade on, that slips to us at 41 and would not slip much further, I think it’s possible to get a 3rd if we give up a 5th or 6th plus a player.
OL + QB combo
If speculation runs true Clausen could be available as far as SF at #17 if we pass. Really there aren’t many teams in the latter half looking for a 1st round QB, meaning a Rodger/Quinn type slide could be imminent. (IMO – only Arizona, SF, Minn would take him)
Any chances we take a tackle at #9 and trade up for a second 1st round pick to grab clausen?
sounds just like Cleveland a few years back
top pick on Joe Thomas, then trade back into late first for a falling ND QB…
wait, that turned out horribly! just take a lineman (OT or NT)!!!!
