My Cards top 10 draft board

[Cbus cardsfan]

Couldnt disagree more with just about everything, but youre entitled to your opinion.



I will say I think Martin and Brockers are the most Bust destined players since Russell.

Don't question my draft accumen. I had David Terrell and Maurice Clarett as perrenial pro bowlers. So, I have a proven track record when it comes to this stuff .

17. OG-OT Cordy Glenn Georgia 6.15 6-5 3/4 345 5.09
18. DT-DE Michael Brockers LSU 6.15 6-5 322 5.36
19. OG Amini Silatolu Midwestern State (Texas) 6.15 6-3 5/8 311 5.39
20. ILB Dont'a Hightower Alabama 6.10 6-2 1/4 265 4.64

Fletcher Cox is a stud and the best DT in this draft. He has great versatility (can play in 3-4 or 4-3) and has enough rush skills to stay in on 3rd downs. Brockers might have more potential, but I think Cox is head and shoulders better right now.

I think it has less to do with a player climbing up the charts "because the player changed" than it does because the draft guide gurus changed their opinions as new info continues to drift in about the players and from the teams.

I don't know this is actually the case, but the Niners - by signing Brandon Jacobs - appear to be signaling they want to play smashmouth on offense. If so, I could see the Cardinals (or StL or Seattle) deciding to draft one of the DT's to counter the more physical running games in the NFC West.

In any case , each time another team would opt for one of the DT's or Tannehill, the better our chances at #13, for getting a player we targeted.

McShay's latest mock has us taking Ingram.

McShay's latest mock has us taking Ingram.

I would be stoked if that happened.
