My early mock

[pigskin]

1. Soloman Thomas DE Stanford

2. Obi Melifonwu S Connecticut - Maybe the Senior Bowl hype got to me, but I really like this kid

3. Chidobe Awuzie CB Colorado

4. Will Holden OT Vanderbilt

5. Jordon Morgan G Kutztown St

6. James Conner RB Pit - Power back

7. Josh Malone WR Tennessee - Big target for Phillip

Nice picking a local boy to me. With your 5th pick

And here I thought I was the only Chargers fan in the area.....how close are you to Kutztown?

My son almost went to Kutztown on a rugby offer.

Alright...alright, the word Kutztown has been said way to many times for one thread. Mods, shut it down!

BTW, not a bad draft.

My favorite mock so far is:
1. Malik Hooker - ballhawk safety out of THE OSU
2. Forrest Lamp - OL Western Kentucky, maybe borderline tackle, but great G/C prospect. Gives us an emergency tackle if/when Dunlap/Barksdale get injured
I've also seen Adoree Jackson (CB, USC)
TJ Watt (LB, Wisconsin)
Tra'Davious white (CB LSU)
Would love it if McCaffrey (Stanford) fell to here

My hope is we lean towards the defense this draft with 2 of our top 3 picks. We need OL help but i'm all for grabbing a vet or 3 in FA to fix the OL group...I expect Franklin is gone and not sure if King is going to be around so the left side of the line is the big question mark. Hopefully whats his name (brain freeze) we drafted last year can come in as either guard or center to fill a role. That said i'd like:

Safety: I'd like Hooker or the other top safety pick in the 1st. Just think having a fast rangey safety would really help solidify the backfield under Bradley.

OT/DT: I'm hoping we can get a OT either in FA or in the 2nd/3rd and another DT as well in 2nd/3rd.

CB: If Flowers is gone we probably need another CB prospect...i'd be ok with Flowers signing for cheap as I think he can still play to a high level...that said some youth to develop would not be a bad idea.

LB: Hopefully Ingram is tagged or signs long-term to alleviate a pass rush immediate need. I'm assuming Teo will sign relatively cheap and can be a valuable vet for Bradley.
