🏈 PFF 2017 Mock draft

[Sgt. Lincoln Osiris]

Notes:

Jon Allen #1
Tim Williams #11
Reub Foster #20
Marlon Humphrey #23

Also noteworthy, no Cam Rob in the 1st round. This highlights what I've been saying since week 3: He's rated sub-standard for a would-be 1st round early entrant.

Jonathan Allen, Myles Garrett go 1-2 in first 2017 Mock Draft

Umm... bump? lol

I think Humphrey might be better suited for 1 more year here to be honest. I know he has all of the measurables, but he still has moments of inconsistency.

Cam Rob's future is based on team needs. Except for the Browns (who need everything) it's too early to tell. Wait another month and let's see how the predictions change.

Cam will be that shiny object you just can't keep your hands off. The measurables will be more than a GM can resist.

Yeah, Cam Rob sucks so much he's a semifinalist for the Outland Trophy
Cam Robinson Selected as Semifinalist for Outland Trophy

And?

Barrett Jones won it and was drafted 5th round as a senior...

William Vlachos was a semifinalist and went undated free agent.

Antoine Caldwell was a early semifinalist as a senior and he was drafted in the 3rd round.

I've said nearly all season that his game tape doesn't lie. He hasn't graded like a 1st rounder. And the experts who make a living evaluating pro talent support that fact.

Cam Rob won't win the Outland.

Your argument is moot.

He's not a 1st rounder.

Jon Allen was a late 1st/early 2nd projection last year, and chose to stay to work on his technique and improve his stock. And now he's projected by many to be the #1 overall pick this year. He's made an extra 10 million guaranteed money by staying.

Cam Rob needs to look no further than his teammate on what to do.

Despite a true frosh outperforming him on the opposite end of the line?

Cam has been playing a lot better the last part of the season. What I'm saying is that he has the measurables of a first rounder. The NFL will be tempted to get their hands on him sooner rather than later.

We need to stop judging players' college football prowess by where they're drafted by the pros. Do you evaluate a high school football star's value to his team by how many national championships they win in college?

There's a long way to go before draft day. His tape looks good (not perfect) right now but the time between the final game and the combine will change a lot of players.

Oh, no doubt things can change from immediate post season till the combine. But he needs to declare in order to receive an invite for the combine.

And so far thru 10 games, he hasn't graded as a first rounder.

I agree, but let's not forget that recruiting benefits from those high draft picks and the highlight reels of Bama players starring in the league. That, and I'm very hopeful that football continues to pay dividends (either in the game or just opening doors) for those kids who have sacrificed for the University.

RTR,

IMO, he won't put his body through another year of pounding without getting paid. The draft is all about need and matching that need to the talent available. Being a semi finalist for the Outland is a good step. As Saban stresses, focus on the next step, not the end of the journey.
