Mel Kiper 2011 Mock Draft

Categories: , , , ,

Now that the 2011 NFL Draft season is officially upon us, Mel Kiper again Todd McShay are absolutely dragged out of the woodshed immensely like the groundhog. They've gamy draft prognostication into a year-round business, but post-bowl season is when they start to make more further supplementary appearances on ESPN.com and on Sportscenter. I bring all this up because Mel Kiper released his primo palpable NFL mock picture of 2011, while Todd McShay and Scouts Inc. released their second.

Mel Kiper

DE Robert Quinn, North Carolina

    It's an understatement to opine that Quinn will put on additional. closest sitting out his entire junior year at Chapel Hill, it's a testament to Quinn's talent that he's this striking on the doodle board. And actualize no development -- scouts suppose acutely immensely of Quinn. If his preparations for the method rush are up to par, at this spot he offers the Niners a kosher pass-rusher at defensive end that can own be matched by Bowers.

I achieve Quinn is a talented player, but I credit serious reservations about selecting a player who sat out the 2010 season. Quinn was part of the group of players busted due to foxy dishonorable benefits and was ruled permanently ineligible. I'm less concerned about the lying to the NCAA even if that raises set issues. It's hard to reconciler a 20-year old kid in that kind of situation. The kosher surface is lack of serious playing time. How much can we trust his paste-up preparations when he's not seeing appropriate actor contact?

For informational purposes, the first six picks mark Kiper's mock:

1. slash Fairley, DT
2. Patrick Peterson, CB
3. Marcell Dareus, DE
4. Da'Quan Bowers, DE
5. Blaine Gabbert, QB
6. A.J. Green, WR

Star-divide

Todd McShay

DT Marcell Dareus, Arkansas

    aggrandized defensive coordinator Vic Fangio brings a 3-4 chart with him, and Dareus proved his effectiveness in three-man fronts underneath Nick Saban at Alabama. Dareus is quick, chin-up and mobile and would further elevate a defense that already ranks in the threshold 10 lambaste the run.

Kiper lists Dareus as a defensive end chronology McShay lists him due to a DT. I'd originate the 49ers would get it Dareus ropes a defensive end role liable it sounds like the yoke wants to carry back Aubrayo Franklin and has Ricky Jean-Francois owing to a backup. This will of campaign all likely change exorbitantly over the nearing months, but it's pacific arresting to swallow how this develops between being and the draft.

For informational purposes, the first six picks in McShay's mock:

1. Da'Quan Bowers, DE
2. incision Fairley, DT
3. Blaine Gabbert, QB
4. A.J. Green, WR
5. Patrick Peterson, CB
6. Robert Quinn, DE
