Way too early 2013 Mock Draft

Way too early, but I thought I'd post it for fun. I did it at 4:30AM, so any criticism is warranted, but be gentle.

Round 1 - Jonathan Jenkins, NT, Georgia
Round 2 - Oday Aboushi, OT, Virginia
Round 3 - Jordan Matthews, WR, Vanderbilt
Round 4 - Andrew Jackson, ILB, Western Kentucky
Round 5 - Phillip Thomas, S, Fresno St.
Round 6 - Mister Cobble, NT, Kentucky
Round 7 - Derek Carr, QB, Fresno St.

Kind of ironic that it's defense heavy, but I think it's necessary at those positions. 2NTs might be a bit much, and I think we'll possibly go FA, but it may not be bad to bring in a couple big dudes to man that spot so we don't have Mitchell or Crick playing there while they are undersized and don't plug the gap versus the run.

1. Kawaan Short-DT, strengthens the interior D-line and makes ILB less of a priority.
2. Terrance Williams-WR, #2WR with potential to be a #1.
3. Xavier Nixon-OT, he and Newton battle for RT and the other is swing OT.
4. Andrew Jackson-ILB, solidify ILB opposite Cushing.
5. Johnny Adams-CB, we lose McCain to FA and add some depth with Adams.
6. Quinn Sharp-P/K, younger better cheaper P for field position battle and emergency depth at K as well.
7. Zach Boren-FB, for the short yardage/goal line situation when you need to pound the ball.

I also think we could be getting Comp. picks in the 3rd for Mario, 5th for Brisiel, and 6th or 7th for Allen.

I'm going to pretend we get an extra 3rd, 6th, and 7th in compensatory picks.

1st || Eric Fisher, OT, Central Michigan
2nd || Kevin Minter, ILB. LSU
3rd || Quinton Patton, WR, Louisiana Tech
3rd || Jesse Williams, DT, Alabama
4th || Kenjon Barner, RB, Oregon
5th || Terry Hawthorne, CB, Illinois
6th ||
6th ||

I will finish the rest later.

No way Jesse Williams drops to the 3rd round.

Derek Carr is going to be so much higher than a 7th round pick.

Since it is looking like Joel is Manning go to TE in Denver over Tamme will we get a COMP pick for him as well.... i am praying that this year we can restructure antonio smith so he can stay three more years and hope fully some how lure Henry Melton out of Chicago. That DL would do alot of damage. If not here is my mock draft. thinking we get a 3,5,6 for comp pick

1 Kawann Short DT Purdue
2 Bradley Roby CB Ohio State
3 Jonathan Brown ILB Illinois
3 Oday Aboushi OT Virginia
4 Marquess Wilson WR Washington St.
5 Brandon Ford TE Clemson
5 Silas Redd RB USC
6 Michael Mauti LB Penn St.
6 Darius Slay DB Mississippi St.
7 Walter Stewart OLB Cincinnati

I think this would help us out the most and YES i have TWO ILB's in this draft. All bec idk how sharpton will be once back and i hate brady james. what do you think

Well guys, if we're looking for a late-round nose tackle, A&M's Spencer Nealy just dominated Barrett Jones (maybe the best college center in the country) as a 1-gap nose.

I don't know that he'll get a Combine invite, but if he ends up at the Shrine Game I'd put money on him wearing Steel Blue come the first of May.

I know we have scouts looking at numerous teams, but I just had a friend tell me they saw a Texans scout at the Oregon game a few weeks ago. I wouldn't be surprised if they were looking at Kiko Alonso at ILB. I love the way he plays, but I'm not sure he's the "thumper" role typically used next to Cushing.

I haven't seen anything about where he's projected for the draft, but I think he could be the next coming of Braman; big bodied LB that excels on ST and works his way into the starting lineup after a year or two.

EDIT: Okay, maybe he's not a good option now that I discovered he's had some issues off the field: http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=6466594
