2010 Non-experts Mock Draft: 7th Round The Lions (Mr. Irrelevant) are On the Clock
This concludes the Seahawks draft:
1. Jimmy Clausen, QB Notre Dame
1. Anthony Davis, OT Rutgers
2. Kareem Jackson, CB Alabama
4. Ben Tate, RB Aurburn
4. Lindsey Witten, DE UConn
5. Ed Dickson, TE Oregon
6. Darrell Stuckey, S Kansas
7. Antonio Brown, WR Central Michigan
7. Shelley Smith, OG Colorado State
1st round:
6. Jimmy Clausen, QB Notre Dame
-A lot of people either love him or hate him. I personally love him and think he will be a great QB. The draft started before the Seahawks sold their soul to the devil for Charlie Whithurst, but I'm still happy with this pick. I was even trying to trade up with the Bucs (but they traded up to the first pick) because I didn't think he would make it past Washington
14. Anthony Davis, OT Rutgers
Left tackle was a pretty big need for Seattle, and I was glad to be able to pick up Davis here. I think he'll be a fine pro portecting Clausen's blind side for a ling time.
2nd Round
40. Kareem Jackson, CB Alabama
I kind of made a mistake here. I was looking at the Experts draft board and saw they already picked McCourty so I thought he was gone on our board but he wasn't. Although it was a mistake, I'm still glad to pick Jackson. If this were real life, I would pick Jackson over McCourty because I think he will be a better pro, but for the sake of mock draft/value, McCourty might have been the better pick
4th Round
105. Ben Tate, RB Aurburn
Ben is a player that can really add a lot of things to Seattle's offense. He runs well, catches well, blocks well, and could be a big time contributer. Him and Juluis Jones together could be a good 1-2 punch
122. Lindsey Witten, DE UConn
Witten had a really porductive careerr at UConn, including 11.5 sacks his senior year. Seattle is in need of a pass rusher, and hopefully Witten can fill that role.
5th Round
Ed Dickson, TE Oregon
Tight end wasn't a big need at all for Seattle, but Dickson was a really good value here and I could not pass him up. Him and Carlson would make a really good TE duo.
6th Round
Darrell Stuckey, S Kansas
This was my homerun pick right here. Stuckey to me is a 3 round player, that I was able to pick up in the 6th. He has all the great measurable and production from his days at Kansas. Great pick here.
7th Round
215. Antonio Brown, WR Central Michigan
WR is a position that I wanted to take earlier, but the value never really added up to what was available. I didn't want to reach on a player for need. But Brown is a good pick up in the 6th for me. He put up big numbers at CMU and can be expected to contribute in the pros.
247. Shelley Smith, OG Colorado St.
Offensive line is something I wanted to get more of earlier, but there just aren't enough early picks for all of Seattle's needs. Smith had a 6th round grade on him so to get him in the 7th as a compensatory pick, I'm pretty pleased.
Overall I'd give myself a B-. I didn't get to draft some positions as early as I'd like, but I think I got pretty good value on all of my players. I would have really like to get more depth on the D-line, and missed out on DT completely. Feel free to critiqute and rip apart. Thank you and drive home safely.
