c_hawkbob's annual Three Deep Mock, 2022

[c_hawkbob]

Well here we are three weeks before the draft and the full 7 round mocks are starting to appear, so to give you all a fair chance to get your picks in here is my three deep mock for this year. Reminder; be mindful of your spelling, when tallying the score I copy and search the word document I add everybody's mock to so if it's spelled wrong, you might not get credit! Also we only count three prospects for each pick we have right now, I won't keep track of predicted trades.

Scoring:
- 1 point for each player that we draft
- 1 point for the correct round drafted
- 1/2 point for each player from your mock that we sign as UDFA’s
- 1/2 point for a player you have listed first in a round.

Here's mine:

Round 1 (9)
1- Charles Cross, OT, Miss. State
2- Kayvon Thibodeaux, Edge, Oregon
3- Ahmad "Sauce" Gardner, CB, Cincinnati

Round 2 (40)
1- Trevor Penning, OT, Northern Iowa

[RiverDog]

I assume we can edit our picks, but do you have a final cutoff? For example, do you allow edits of 2nd round picks based on the results of the first round? Or do you close out all picks once the draft begins on Thursday? In any event, here's mine:

3- Jordan Davis, DT, Georgia

Good job Tarl, I had us with 7 picks but after seeing yours I looked again and we do have 8! We have 2 5th round picks - 145 & 153! My edit coming up...

[Hawktawk]

I don’t have the time to research this stuff but fun to read . I see nobody has a QB on the top line so far .

[RiverDog]

I edited my picks, adding a 5th round pick that was omitted earlier.

[TriCitySam]

Here is a SWAG:

#9:
1. Kayvon Thibodeaux
2. Jordon Davis - DI
3. Jermaine Johnson II -ED

#40:
1. Travis Jones - DI
2. Andrew Booth, Jr - CB
3. Kyler Gordon - CB

2022 Draft

As usual, I know I have some guys in clearly the wrong round… but I think they are possibilities, so I’m trying to scoop up some points. Wouldn’t it be crazy to draft a Zion and a Zyon?

[NorthHawk]

So here I go again with my annual list of players we will not pick in the draft.
I expect JS will trade down from 9, though and because there is so much talent in the first 3 rounds many of the picks in the late rounds are actually early round probabilities.

Yes, I added Obinna Eze in the 5th round

[Hawk Sista]

Way to go, Bob!!!

[c_hawkbob]

Thank you, thank you! *takes a bow*

[c_hawkbob]

Boy Jermaine Johnson II was sure a popular pick, almost every one of us had him on their boards.

[mykc14]

Boy Jermaine Johnson II was sure a popular pick, almost every one of us had him on their boards.

I definitely would have put him down for us in round 1, which is why I don't do these things- don't spend enough time studying college players. Hopefully Cross is the next Walt!!!

[c_hawkbob]

Driving across WV and KY yesterday, got home to a deep freezer full of ruined meat and blood all over my garage floor last night, wasn't able to catch up with day 2 till late ... I like the Bookend Tackles, love that we got one of the better Edge Rushers and of course the obligatory WTF pick of a late round RB in the second.

As for the pool: we've got a lot of good scoring this year! Looks like Zorn2Largent is leading the way with 4 1/2 points as he and Sam TriCitySam nailed the Lucas pick!

Good luck to all of us (especially the team) today!

[NorthHawk]

Boy Jermaine Johnson II was sure a popular pick, almost every one of us had him on their boards.

I think everyone recognized he's a good player and was worthy of our pick at #9 but they chose to go a different route.

[govandals]

Regarding Jermaine Johnson, I read right before the draft he didn't interview so well and he may have possible gang affiliations. Yikes! Probably why he fell. He was mocked in the top ten in many of the later mocks and fell to 26th.

[NorthHawk]

These stories makes you wonder. Scouts and teams have had a couple of years learning about them and just days before the draft it comes to light that he might have gang affiliations?
It just sounds suspicious to me with the timing.

[c_hawkbob]

Points for North and Riv for Tariq Woolen!

[c_hawkbob]

Well, after our last pick the scoring looks like this:

- I've got 5 points for maxing out with Charles Cross in the first and Bo Melton in the 7th.
- Zorn2Largent has 4.5 points; 2 for Charles Cross and 2.5 for Abraham Lucas
- Old but Slow got 3 points, 1 for Abraham Lucas and 2 for Boye Mafe
- TriCitySam has 2.5 points for maxing out with Abraham Lucas
- Sis got 2 points for Bo Melton
- Tarl has 2 points for Boye Mafe
- NorthHawk has 2 points, one each for Abraham Lucas and Tariq Woolen
- hoxgmp got 2 points for Boye Mafe
- Riv has 1 point for Tariq Woolen
- govandals got 1 point for Abraham Lucas

Now we wait for UDFA's!

[NorthHawk]

All but 1 of my list have been drafted (but the draft isn’t over yet) and he’s a QB so I’m probably out.

[Old but Slow]

You done good, Bob. This was a tough one to call because of the quality of the whole draft.

[c_hawkbob]

Thanks Old Dude, I had fun doing it!

[Aseahawkfan]

I still cannot believe c-bob called the first round as accurately as I can ever recall. I wonder if anyone else has ever called the first round pick like this in the 12 year history Pete's been here.

[Hawk Sista]

Thanks for doing this, Bob. It’s always appreciated!

Not that it matters, but I also had Boye Mafe the 2nd. Can’t help call it out…. I’m competitive.

[c_hawkbob]

Sure enough! 2 more points for Sis! (he was pick 40 ... next year I'm gonna have to specify pick number instead of round for the bonus half point).

Luckily I grade for content, not spelling ... unfortunately a document search is spelling selective, anyone else have missed credit speak up, of course it matters!

[c_hawkbob]

I still cannot believe c-bob called the first round as accurately as I can ever recall. I wonder if anyone else has ever called the first round pick like this in the 12 year history Pete's been here.

I'm going to officially say no, it hasn't. I haven't kept all of these from the PI and State of Football till now but I'm sure I'd remember if it had (of course I'm 65 and running low on RAM so take it for what it's worth).

[Hawk Sista]

Bob….. I’m so sorry. I will be more careful next time. I believe I did that with Uncle Will TE), U-Dub once as well. Thank you

[Hawk Sista]

And I am fine with however you set up the rules about pick #. We almost made it the whole draft w/o trading back into another position this year…really, if someone would have called that…

[c_hawkbob]

Bob….. I’m so sorry. I will be more careful next time. I believe I did that with Uncle Will TE), U-Dub once as well. Thank you

No worries, we all hooman! And you're most welcome.

[NorthHawk]

Thanks for doing this again this year. As usual I can’t figure out who they will pick.

Any site you know of that has the list of UFAs this year?

[TriCitySam]

I'll add my thanks Bob, great job!

I should have avoided the noise and not modified my 1st 3 deep - should have taken the sage advice of Bill Parcels that you DO NOT modify your board due to late risers, but I will say this:

When you go and look at some of the professional mockers who did multiple round projections, our group stacks up pretty well: Rob Staton and Rob Rang didn't have any in their mocks. Vincent Frank had Walker, FanNation had Cross. Bob Condotta (Seattle Times) did the best with Cross and Woolen.

[RiverDog]

This was the first year that I participated, and it added some extra interest to our picks. Thanks for running it, C-Bob!
