7-Round Mock

[NFLRoughDraft]

Hey guys...Our new 7-round mock is out. This one was released by the other guy from our site. Mine will be out next week: http://www.nflroughdraft.com/node/81

 

[TJ]

You just made Mitch's day!

McElroy in the 5th round

 

[Pariah]

I know what a crazy undertaking something like this is, so I won't nitpick--I think overall the Cards daft is pretty solid (and Mitch is going to love it because you have McElroy going to us--other than to say you guys are suffering from groupthink delusions over there to have two mocks from two different people without a QB going in the top-7 (which is littered with QB-needy teams).

I know Gabbert and Newton aren't the prospects that we've had in the past few years, but they'll still go faster than that, IMO.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

i like what we get in this draft, i'm just not sure your first round is realistic. BOTH qb's dropping that far with multiple teams in the top 10 needing qb's seems insane.

 

[Stout]

I would definitely take that draft for us. I don't know about CB in the 2nd, but overall it's a decent draft.

Boosh!

Why do people keep projecting RBs to us? Our depth chart at the position is full with actual NFL players.

If we draft a CB with legit WRs and DEs on the board in the 2nd, I will be incredibly upset.

McElroy in the 5th round

NFL smoke screen at the extreme? Only the Seahawks had representation at his Pro Day.

I like a lot of the choices for the Cards but SILB wasn't addressed and that can't happen.

I'm with Stout, not sure about the CB Harris for us in the 2nd rd. It will be interesting to see if Horton does get to or wants to draft a CB.

 

[ARZCardinals]

looks like a solid take...

I'll kill the Cards if they pass on Rudolph in the 2nd.

Doesn't he have legitimate injury concerns?

Ryan Mallet is there as well. He could be good in the Whiz system. Tall kid, can scan well.

Rudolph's injury concern is a hamstring injury from hell. A hamstring tendon avulsion is serious . That's the sort of injury that when it happens to a dog, you have to put it to sleep because it will never be able to run again and it will walk with a limp for the rest of it's life.

Essentially what happens is when the hamstring gets injured, instead of the tenden fraying and tearing, the muscle pulls the tendon right off the bone and takes part of the bone with it. A few years ago an athlete would never return to full strength. Procedures are better now but most patients still have some effects for years, at the very least it's half a year of Physical Therapy. I wouldn't touch Rudolph with anything higher than a 6th rounder.

Tommie Harris had a similar injury in 2007 and that was a nightmare for the Bears. He was a Probowler for 3 straight years and he was never the same. They just released him last month when it was perfectly obvious he would never be the same player. I hate the Bears but I would never wish that on anybody.

Stay the hell away from Rudolph with 38 and 69 and 103 and 136.

Wouldn't complain at all with that draft. That said I would rather not take a CB in the second. Love the Stocker pick.

Good write up.

I almost quit reading after I saw Clayborn to TB in ROUND 2, but figured that was remotely, very remotely, plausible, but did stop after I saw Heyward at 58. Why even publish such garbage? The only way 57 players get picked before Heyward is if he falls down a flight of stairs between now and April 28. He'd be lucky to make it to the Cards at 38 and, if he does, they better take him.

There's other very unlikely picks in there as well. Houston, Hankerson, Wilson,House and Hudson all seem to be off the board much too early. It's more likely that Butler and Virginia Commonwealth make the final 4 in the same year than these things happening .
