Corbin's bottom of the Bargin Bin Last Mock

NFL Draft


Round 2 Pick #36 - O'Cyrus Torrence G Florida - Pro Day Draft Visit

View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wELcYVXpNtI

Where he wins: Easy power

Torrence makes moving people against their will look like child’s play. He can move defensive tackles off the line with his lower body or torque them out of the hole with his upper body.

What’s his role: Guard

There’s never been a more “guardy” guard prospect. Torrence was built in a lab to play guard.

What can he Improve: Very little

Physical limitations are the biggest thing holding Torrence back at this point. There’s not much else on tape that I’d call a glaring issue.


Round 3 Pick #76 - Jaelyn Duncan LT Maryland


View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWp3t6Gx9lc

2/11/23: Duncan has a good skill set and improved throughout his college career. For the NFL, he looks like he has starting left tackle potential. Duncan is quick out of his stance and does a nice job of moving his feet to glide with edge rushers. To maintain proper leverage, Duncan bends at the knee and shows the agility to move. Duncan could stand to improve his hand placement, but he has starting skill set of size, athleticism and strength. Duncan had some issues against Ohio State late in the 2022 season, illustrating that he is raw and needs some development, but Duncan is talented with the physical skills to be a starter. At the Senior Bowl, Duncan was uneven in his performance, but he displayed he has a good skill set to work with.

6/27/22: Duncan has been solid for Maryland and received a quality grade from NFL advance scouts. Duncan is a team leader and captain with good size and athleticism. If Duncan does well against top opponents, he could be a riser. Duncan broke into the starting lineup as a redshirt freshman in 2019 and has been a mainstay at left tackle for the Terrapins.

Where he wins: Leverage

Wypler understands line-of-scrimmage play. He’s so good at establishing and re-establishing leverage. His game is what you’d expect from a fifth- or sixth-year player.

What’s his role: Center

Wypler doesn’t have an ideal frame to move to guard. He’s going to be a center at the next level.

What can he Improve: Anchor

This isn’t too surprising considering he’s a third-year player declaring early. One can expect this to improve in the coming years, but it’ll likely still be an issue early on in his NFL career.

Round 3 Pick #97 - Kendre Miller HB TCU - Pro Visit


View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQ6SYpjTAZM&t=28s

View: https://youtu.be/lfulwX6JdQI?t=314


Where he wins: Flexibility

Miller runs like a world-class slalom skier. He makes it look so easy when he bounces left and right without losing any speed.

What’s his role: Bell cow

Miller has the size, speed and burst to handle a full workload in the league. He did just that for TCU last season.

What can he Improve: Short yardage

Miller still could stand to lower a shoulder and take what is available a little more often. He can get antsy searching for holes even when there’s none to be found.

[AvengerRam]

I don’t see Torrence making it to #36, unfortunately, and Vorhees tore his ACL at the Combine.

 

[Corbin]

My favorite thing about this draft is it gives McVay total access to 12 and 11 personal.


McVay runs a inside zone and duo concept in the running game, absolutely tired of our linemen getting overmatched and overpowered on simple run plays. Drafting 4 OL (one blue chip player) in this mock will help a great deal in getting this McVay offense dangerous again.

Very curious to see our strategy in 3 weeks.

 

[dang]

Thx for the draft.
I’d love to see this level of dedication to the OL and bringing back Ashawn for 2 more years on a team friendly deal.
My first question is do you see either Ingram or Houston as more than a 1 year deal? If not, I don’t see any reason in signing them for 1 year.

I actually have time right now between all these businesses and work! Lol

Anyway, a lot of these players were drafted and picked up with the mindset of grooming the next generation.

Even the great Aaron Donald didn’t start full time his first year and needed confidence boosters and ideal situations before getting more playing time after the first 7 to 10 games.

How much more so would this help less talented prospects with weight training, correct fundamentals, learning scheme etc. We have to have stop gaps like at the QB position with the situation we are in with where we are getting our young talent pool from.

Ps if you get a chance watch that Jake BoBo video. Tell me who he reminds you of?!

He mentions Vorhees tearing his ACL and being out for the entire rookie season

 

[AvengerRam]

Then why list him as a “projected starter”?

I think that is for 2024 maybe?

 

[AvengerRam]

It doesn’t say that. Besides…how could anyone project the 2024 starters today?

 

[HitStick]

Drew Bennett?

 

[Tano]

He has it in his first paragraph

 

[AvengerRam]

He has it in his first paragraph

No, that’s not what it says. @Corbin can clarify, if he wishes, but it makes no sense to project starters for 2024. We have no way of knowing who the Rams might sign in 2024 free agency or take in the 2024 draft.

Vorhees is unlikely to play at all this year, so if we’re looking for guys to get experience as starters in 2023 with an eye toward 2024, he’d be a poor selection.

I was just stating it as a possibility due to what the paragraph mentioned

But yeah - Corbin would have to clarify his starters to verify why he included Vorhees as a starter

Just as an aside on Vorhees himself, there are a few rookie OL who come in and play like an all-pro in their first year

Creed and the Indianapolis guard come to mind. Maybe Vorhees can be one in 2024.

 

[Corbin]

Drew Bennett?

That would be a good thing with him being a 7th rd prospect. We drafted a 2nd rd WR and in 2 years he has 18 298 and 1td. Yeah Drew Bennett would be a nice compliment to who we already have on the roster.

Maybe if you watch his routes you’d see how crisp and precise he runs them. Plus he’s a blocker and we’ve met with him. Don’t be surprised if he ends up a Ram.

Well the idea is the groom them into a starting position. You are right, when I made the roster there that didn’t take into account his ACl tear. I was going to keep Jackson at RT but looks like i never changed it lol

But yeah, this draft is geared to grab top to middle talent, role players, and groom them for a year before our all in 2024 season where the stars, FA’s and trades should take place.

 

[Flatlyner]

I like the Torrance and Vorhees picks myself. Vorhee's is the perfect pick for the 2024 model. He can sit on the IR all season and be ready to roll for '24. His value is also diminished and that is the reason he can be had mid to late draft due to being out all year. I'm on board. Also, really warming up to Tune being our back up QB.

 

[Malibu]

I don’t see Torrence making it to #36, unfortunately, and Vorhees tore his ACL at the Combine.

Lately he has been getting past #31 but he is the best pock for us 10cyear starter. Love Voohes too he is injured only reason he maybe there in 4th. Overall I really love this it addresses everything except a BU QB.

I have a feeling our draft is going to be something along these lines knowing Sneads general direction in drafts now.

 

[Flatlyner]

The more I see of Bobo, the more I think we already have him on our team, Skow.
