2022 NFL Mock Draft 2.0: I'M STARTING TO THINK BLIMP ISN'T COMING BACK • Page 14

I love David Bell. Matty Ice will too.

 

Atlanta Falcons select Boye Mafe, EDGE, Minnesota

An absolute athletic monster capable of growing into their next defensive star

 

@whitenblue88 Browns

 

Browns select Skyy Moore, WR, Western Michigan

see above, but sub in serial abuser Deshaun Watson instead of Matt Ryan

 

@Randall Mentzos ravens

 

I like him a lot too — Ballard just seems to exclusively like 6’4” WRs, and the board didn’t have any of those without reaching

 

my unsubstantiated theory is that, after picking Parris Campbell over DK Metcalf, Ballard decided he was not going to pass up another mammoth WR and now exclusively picks 6’4” WRs (because that’s when this started)

 

Not going to be around until late afternoon tomorrow, don’t @ me



Thanks

 

Wanna send me some players you like for your teams and I can help out?

 

Ya send a list bruh

 

Ravens select Leo Chenal, ILB, Wisconsin

this guy screams Baltimore Raven.

After losing Josh Bynes, Pernell McPhee, AND Justin Houston to free agency, this Ravens front 7 is looking really light - I like Patrick Queen and Odafe Oweh but that's two finesse linebackers left manning a 3-4 defense that's usually very physical. Even really good finesse players will get BEAT UP by opposing offensive lines if the team doesn't have some meat and potatoes inside to take on blocks (cough Myles Jack). Queen similarly had a down season and imo this is the best way to fix that.

Although MIKE ILB and pass-rushing OLB are two entirely separate needs the Ravens have at this point, Chenal is their best guy for addressing a little bit of both. The Big Ten linebacker of the year had a very productive season with 115 tackles & 18.5 for loss. Notably, he was 4th among linebackers in two crucial categories - sacks (8.5) and "stops" (58). He's a great fit for the aggressive style of defense they like to run, with the ability to pass rush from anywhere on the field.

In addition, fucking guy is huge. At nearly 260 pounds, yet still being decent in coverage and very explosive with a 4.53 forty / 40" vertical... this guy has a rare old-school athletic profile that reminds me of one specific player: Dont'a Hightower. I've always loved Hightower and that's exactly the kind of big, scary take-on linebacker they need to push opposing guards and centers back into the runningback. As a three down player who also isn't a liability against the pass, His downhill approach and active hand fighting should keep offensive lines' hands full, and clear lanes for Queen to show off his read-and-react prowess.

 

Welp, looks like we’re waiting until tomorrow afternoon.

 

Sorry for taking so long yall I needed that nap

 

The vikings select david ojabo, de, michigan

 

@CarpetElf

 

Did you wake up from a nap at 11:30pm? That sounds like a nightmare.

 

Washington selects Christian Harris, LB, Alabama

Jamin Davis definitely cannot do it all by himself and adding in the intelligent and versatile Harris should hopefully be the final piece of what might FINALLY be an elite defense. Or so I'm going to keep telling myself.

 

@PeacefulOrca burs

 

Miami's first and 2nd now owned by KC

 

not in this mock

 

I know, we will have to do another

 

Lol the nfl just doesn’t stop

 

lol guess I'm out of the next mock yall

 

Duh bears select bernhard raimann, ot, centmichigan

There is some thought that borom was solid but they would like to move him to iol because he’d be much better there.
