MadDog's 2014 NFL Draft Pre-Combine Big 150 Board

Wow nice list. This is a DEEP draft. the more I think of it, the better a trade down may happen? Move down from 30 to 40 something and pick up another 3rd for 2015 and still not miss a Prospect.

Ok, based on Mad Dog's NOT A MOCK, heres a mock

30 Marqise Lee
I dont think he'll fall this far. If the 9ers want him, I think they trade up. But if MD is correct and Dennard and Gilbert go that high, Lee is the #3 option imho.

Trade
61+77 for 41
41 Kyle Fuller
This spot gives them their pick between Fuller, Roberson, and Roby

56 Jordan Matthews
My gut tells me he'll be good. Groomed to take over for Bolden?
Alternatives: Jarvis Landry, Robert Herron

94 Dion Bailey
Assuming they sign Whitner, groomed as heir apparent
Alternatives: Craig Loston

Trade: 125 + 158 =109
109 EJ Gaines
Another talented CB to develop

Comp pick (Goldson): Justin Ellis
I think hes long gone by here


Trade
189 + 219 = 2015 pick

220 Quincy Enuwa
Swiss Army knife type player, vicious blocker

222 George Atkinson
RB Notre Dame, competes for Dixons role?

It's like a kid in a candy store...there are so many good players. I often wish one of the draft gurus on this board could do our draft instead of Trent B. Really, sometimes I do. By the way, I like a trade back, but not if Lee is there. If I pick Lee, I can focus on DB and defense for the next few picks. He can be an all around WR, kind of "big AND little". I like and better than or.

Not bad, but I think you may be right about Justin Ellis.

It is a pretty good draft. Better value than top level studs like we saw in the 2011 class. The problem is finding a suitor who wants to move up from the second round into the late first. When the QB class is deeper, there is that mad rush to move up before they are gone in the mid-30's. I am not sure there is a QB in that early second range that teams want and will fight to get.

My thoughts on Lee is that he is neither big, nor explosive. Think he will be right at 6', and will run a mediocre forty time. Hence, the movement toward the bottom of the first, Could be wrong.

I think Fuller will be a riser, pushing toward the top edge of the second round.

Matthews "liability" right now is off the LOS. Really interested to see his 10 yard split. The guy works hard, but separation might be the issue.

Loston is a good player. Definitely underrated in my opinion.

Curious to see where Ellis is taken. Mediocre Senior Bowl practices. I get suckered every year in overprojecting smaller school giant DT, and this year I am probably a bit conservative. Good prospect, but in a deeper draft slides a bit.

It is a good draft, and I always do a comparative Niners' on the clock draft as it happens (you can always search for my previous year's selections). It is always interesting to look back and see who made the better selections. However, it does take a handful of years to make a real and fair final evaluation (at this time last year, many were labeling Robert Quinn a bust). Overall, Trent has been very good (2012 was a disaster, but you can't hit every year). I still prefer my picks, but that is my opinion.

I think the value of this draft is the mid-round interior linemen (the only question is which one is best..count me as a fan of Richburg and Larsen), late second round WRs, and mid-round safeties.

pretty nice mock draft,would prefer Benjammin over lee,Lee looks like he has injuries written all over him,fuller very good pick as well as 94 and 109,Matthews is not a bad pick,I just think Landry would be a BETTER pick because he has MORE speed then Matthews.....This draft is full of very Good WRs you jst can't go wrong who you pick as Long as you make sure you draft 2 WRs a speed guy and a big physical guy, Bryant can be both as well as Moncreif like Murphys1 said it like being in a Candy store you have some much to choose from.

Nix and Tuitt are in our wheelhouse according to this list.

You have to be kidding. I take Baalke any day of the week.

I don't want Lee, we already have to slow guys in Crabs and Boldin.

You must not watch USC football if you think Marquise Lee is "slow".

LOL Ya think? Anyone who thinks that some amateur in the WZ knows more than Baalke or would do a better job is crazy.
