The Falcoholic Mock Draft Spectacular: Third Round

Onward, to the third round!

This won't surprise you, but we once again had about a kabillion defensive nominations against virtually nil for offense. We've got an outside linebacker and a tight end already, so positions of need still include defensive tackle, cornerback, offensive line and safety. Let's hit those holes like Michael Turner!

In the comments, exalt in your triumph or bemoan the voters who just don't "get" your choice. Enjoy.

majority for DT

looks like most everyone is pretty sold on a 3rd round DT. I honestly can say I don’t hardly care which one. I want a big guy that plugs holes and draws multiple defenders – it looks like most all of those guys fill that need. It’s just a matter of how quickly they adapt to the NFL… it’s like gambling here.

are you being serious?

He has the size and apparent athleticism… but he doesn’t turn the ball over or record many tackles (99 tackles in 32 games). Isn’t that the problem we already have? I think the need to fill DT is much greater than take a chance on another athletic bust.

Here’s his nfl.com scouting profile

3rd Rd

I like this CB from Michigan, Morgan Trent. He needs a little coaching but got height and long arms.

How in the world

Is Nic Harris hanging around on this one??? I thought he would have ONE vote.
