Dane Brugler’s Mock draft 1.0

25 comments

1. IMO it would be a massive mistake to use two first round picks to draft any of the QBs in this draft.

2. Mock drafts with trades are so pointless.

3. It’s what a lot of us were expecting after day 1 last year so it makes sense I guess

4. If the Rams don’t go QB I have to imagine they trade down again to stock up on picks to take a QB in 2027, especially because I’m sure there’s teams that want Ty Simpson at pick 9.

5. I’m almost certain the Jets are probably going to try to grab a QB with a top 10 pick. 

6. Would rather use our two firsts than trade up honestly. Too many holes to fill on offense.

7. Tip for iPhone users wanting to read the article: Safari gives you an option to enable “Reader mode” which allows you to bypass the log-in prompt.

   In my opinion there are too many holes on this offense to trade away 2 FRPs for a QB. We have some of the worst WRs in the league, no LT or RT and our All-Pro LG is retiring.

   Personally, I’d prefer to trade back with our first pick into the mid 10s or so and get even more ammo for 2027. Then you can draft T and WR in whichever order.

8. That’s a whole lot of Buckeyes

9. I’d be fine with this, but wonder if that would be enough to get it done. There’s multiple teams with stockpiled 1sts that are desperate for a QB, I could see a bidding war taking off and the draft value charts going out the window.

10. Saw yesterday Jordyn Tyson is Jaylon Tyson’s brother on the Cavs. We should draft him

11. Would suck not getting to use that Jags pick on a WR. But you do that trade to ensure you have ammo for this situation of a trade up.

12. Let’s see how Mendoza performs against Ohio

13. and then we start the season with no offensive line and no wide receivers.

14. Sounds great until he gets sacked 5 times a game and he has Jeudy’s and Larvadain’s stone hands to throw it to.

15. Don’t see a world where we trade up to get Mendoza.

    We need those picks.

16. Worst case scenario. Draft a tackle and a receiver

17. Cleveland fans are always so against using draft capital on a QB b/c we have so many holes to fill but that’s THE most important hole that we have never been able to fill. If Mendoza truly shows he’s THAT guy (we should have a clue after Saturday) then you do this 10/10 times.

    Getting a FQB is 100x more important than retooling the OL and getting a WR.

18. Dear lord please let the Titans beat us on Sunday.

19. Bengals would steal Downs at 10

20. Get a WR1 and a OT

21. YES! MORE QUARTERBACK!

22. That’s a reasonable trade up, I’d be happy with that

    I would be happier if we just stayed put in this mock and took WR/OL with our first two picks (I like Tyson the best of the WRs and am hoping one of the top 3 OTs fall to our 2nd pick)

    Our offense is so bad we’re just going to make whoever plays QB look like a bust if we don’t fix the OL and WR room

23. Mock drafts with games to play are stupid.

24. How about we see Mendoza against Ohio State, and other college playoff teams? If he looks capable then he is in play.

25. I’d rather we take arvell Reese and pair him with Myles to create the greatest defensive duo ever to lose 13 games in a season
