With the 4th pick in the 4th Round The Philadelphia Eagles Select

Brandon Jenkins, DE/OLB, Florida State
Height: 6-2. Weight: 251.
Projected 40 Time: 4.67.
Projected Round (2013): 2-4.

Career Recap: Brandon Jenkins had a breakout season in 2010 as a first-year starter at right end. He led Florida State in sacks while the Seminoles led the nation in sacks. Jenkins notched 13.5 sacks with 21.5 tackles for a loss. He had five multi-sack games and was voted the team's MVP.

Jenkins started out last season slowly. He drew extra blocking coming off his stellar 2010 season, but that helped defensive end Bjoern Werner have a breakout year. Jenkins didn't play well against Oklahoma, but he bounced back against Clemson with a sack and a number of pressures on quarterback Tajh Boyd. Jenkins has 39 tackles with 11 tackles for a loss and seven sacks in 2011. He played better down the stretch as he adjusted to the double teams and also drew more one-on-one blocking. Jenkins's strength is his pass rushing. He hasn't been a real standout as a run defender.

2012 Season Outlook: Jenkins has a lot of experience, and good talent around him. As a result, there is no reason to think that he won't have a good senior season. Jenkins has the capacity to explode for multiple sacks in any contest. His athletic ability is enough of a mismatch for him to record at least seven sacks and probably will approach double-digit sacks, if not record 10-plus.

Skill-Set Summary: Jenkins is a speed-edge rusher coming around the corner who has a nice repertoire of moves to throw at offensive tackles. He is an excellent athlete and could fit well in a NFL 3-4 defense as an edge rusher. The biggest negative about Jenkins is that he could be more physical at times. It would be better if he added more muscle to hold his ground at the point of attack in the ground game.

2013 Draft Expectations: Jenkins is viewed as a first- or second-round pick entering the 2012 season. Currently, he should interest 3-4 defenses. If Jenkins adds power and bulk, he would be a better fit for the 4-3. If Jenkins produces a double-digit sack season, he should go in the top 32 and he will have produced over 30 sacks in the past three years.


This is a classic case of taking a player with 1st round talent that fell due to injury concerns. If we can bring him in and get him back to a hundred percent he will make for a great pass rushing rotation guy along with Trent Cole and Connor Barwin.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers select:

WR Marcus Wheaton, Oregon State
5'11", 190 lbs
4.45 40

OVERVIEW Used in much the same way as the Beavers featured former star James Rodgers throughout his distinguished career in Corvallis, Wheaton developed into one of the Pac-12's most versatile and underrated weapons, eclipsing the 1,000-yard mark in all-purpose yardage in 2010 and 2011.
Wheaton caught a then-career-high 73 passes for 986 yards in 2011, earning honorable mention all-conference honors despite the fact he only caught one touchdown.

He was expected to significantly improve those numbers as a senior -- and certainly did so in earning First Team All Pac-12 honors with 91 grabs for 1,244 yards and 11 touchdowns in a breakout performance that helped him surge past Rodgers, Chad Johnson and T.J. Houshmandzadeh to leave Oregon State as the school's all-time record holder with 227 career receptions.

A willing receiver over the middle with the toughness to handle running with the ball on the fly-sweep, Wheaton has the production to prove that he isn't just a track athlete in football pads... he's a big play waiting to happen. Wheaton tends to play too fast at times in his routes, but when controlled he has the sudden moves and athleticism to create and make smooth adjustments to the ball.

STRENGTHS: Very good straight-line speed that translates well onto the gridiron. Eats up the cushion due to his quick burst off the snap. Has a good arm-over swim move and the lateral agility to elude when pressed. Very experienced against press coverage due to the fact Oregon State uses this technique with their cornerbacks.
Savvy, athletic route-runner. Can drop his hips and shows good balance, burst out of his breaks to generate separation. Recognizes holes in zone and settles nicely, keeping himself alive to aid his quarterback.

Talented pass catcher. Shows the ability to snatch passes out of the air and has good body control to contort. Good deep ball receiver, showing the ability to track the ball over either shoulder. Has good lateral agility to elude defenders in tight quarters and has an effective stiff-arm and good balance to generate yardage after the catch.

Alert and a surprisingly competitive blocker given his relatively slight frame. Good bloodlines. Cousin of former Dallas Cowboys defensive back Kenny Wheaton.

COMPARES TO: Bernard Berrian, WR, ex-Chicago Bears/Minnesota Vikings -- Like the former Fresno State product, Wheaton can blame the so-called East Coast bias for his lack of national coverage despite proving himself to be a playmaker over his career. Like Berrian, Wheaton is a big-play threat whenever the ball is in his hands, but his spindly frame could keep him from reaching his maximum potential.

Tampa Bay draft:

1. CB Xavier Rhodes
2. CB Jamar Taylor
3. TE Vance McDonald
4. WR Marcus Wheaton
4. ???
4. ???
4. ???

By the end of the 4th, we should have a really nice haul.

That's a good pick-up.

Yeah good job.

So Tampa is done after the 4th round then?

 

[Saints420Fan]

Wheaton was #2 on my big board That I sent to stew last night. He is pretty shifty

 

[Stew]

If anyone would like to take over the Chiefs let me know. Their GM had to leave us due to his job.

 

[LHStiger03]

Looks like the interest has been lost with the official mock draft going on...

 

[Saint Kamara]

Yeah good job.

So Tampa is done after the 4th round then?

No I have a 5th, 6th and 7th round pick as well. I just figure the best of my draft picks will come in the first 4 rounds.
