I like how you explained Hunter's presence in the NFL: he won't be a superstar at both positions, but having him as a solid starter in one position and a depth guy in the other position is a bigger advantage than you think. This is very relevant when preseason ends and you're looking at what roster spots to save versus which ones to cut. The Cowboys going RB makes total sense. We don't see it happen too often anymore, maybe most recently Bijan Robinson, but a team like Dallas is desperate for their next premiere RB. Zeke did his time and Dowdle is just filling in the spot for now. Will Johnson is perfect for Indy. Them getting any of the projected first-round CBs is a win because they'll almost guaranteed be a CB1 or CB2 as a rookie, and nice development could really help their back 7. As a Falcons fan, having Luther Burden would make my dance all draft night long. However!!! I do have to admit that there's a limit to skill positions we take in the first round. Kyle Pitts? Having a better year but not a Top 5 TE in the league like he was expected to be. Bijan Robinson? Okay he's kind of a game changer, but there were bigger team needs at the time. Michael Penix Jr? I don't really know what to say about this one, it just didn't make sense. With all of that being said, I think it's time the Falcons draft what they need most: a pass rusher. Will Campbell for BAL is great; protect Lamar and he's bound to be in the MVP talks every season, barring injuries. Great mocking per usual Skillet. I like the format because its short, simple, but still gives a fine explanation for each of your picks. My wishlist for your future mocks: a longer video with you personally breaking down each pick, similar to the video we worked on together (I would gladly be involved again btw). I would also like to hear about where you can picture some of my Cincinnati Bearcat draft prospects going (Luke Kandra and Dontay Corleone are expected to be higher round picks, but I'd also like to hear about Xzavier Henderson, Corey Kiner and Evan Pryor; all guys that are good enough to at least be drafted).
Thanks for taking the time Mullet I went through every team's contracts and wrote down two or three of my projected needs for their offseason Did have a pass rusher for the Falcons as one possibility. Raheem Morris is more of a defensive minded head coach so I'm sure he wouldn't mind that. Probably wouldn't have minded Latu or Dallas Turner last draft either. Penix will be on the wait and see Jordan Love plan for a couple seasons so we'll see if that pans out Cowboys and Jeanty just feels like it would happen. He's that good of a talent but it's hard to say any other team going RB. Maybe that does push him down the board a little. Maybe Dallas can trade down and still get him and recoup what they gave up at the trade deadline for Mingo from the Panthers, think that was a 4th rounder Next video I'll have to record my thoughts again. You know I can ramble so it'll be a longer one. And yeah we can come up with some ideas. Maybe an alternating pick mock together at some point
OH and I forgot to mention the Cincinnati guys I do have Kandra and Corleone as day 2 prospects so they weren't too far from making it into this one I'll spend more time on the others but I did like what I saw from Evan Pryor at OSU

this may be one of the worst mock drafts of all time, respectfully
Very constructive criticism you got here, hard to argue with all of that.
Appreciate it
