Stupidly Early Mock Draft

[Maxie the Taxi]

Obviously on Fanspeak site it makes a big difference what Big Board you use to draft from. The Fanspeak board has guys rated way different than the CBS board. Same with Bleacher Report. These boards will be updated after the Senior Bowl, the Combine and Pro Days. Then, the differences aren't so great.

Is that kid's name actually Jihad? Why not just name him Kluklux and be done with it?

[Deputy Nutz]

IF I was a GM, no way I draft that guy.

[Patler]

I think Jihad has taken on a different or more limited meaning than it had 20 years ago.
When I was young, some boys were named Gay. Not so much anymore.

In December, a company that has been around at least a few decades changed its name and as a result, its stock symbol. For decades it was....."ISIS". They found it had become a detriment.

I hope they sued the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria. That's a serious offense.

Rob Rang's post-SB mock has us passing on Jaylon Smith at 26. Yeah nope.

[Deputy Nutz]

To be honest if Jaylon Smith can play within the first 8 games 2016 Thompson might select him. If he is going to miss most of the year I don't think Thompson will put himself in the position to take an injured player with the first round pick. Because if this team regresses from 2015 his ass will be fired for taking Smith.

This prospect looks fine. He certainly looks the part of meeting the prerequisite of 'Packer People' we're all to familiar with here:

**a force as a linebacker for the Buckeyes and as a conscientious and proactive team leader ...

**Joshua Perry/s a true senior, and a vet of 39 games and 24 starts.

**He's was a candidate for the Lott IMPACT Award, which honors athletic ability but also character attributes such as integrity, maturity, performance, academics, community and tenacity ... see below as well.

** He had an outstanding JUNIOR SEASON (2014) and led the College Football Playoff national champions in tackles with 124, a total that ranked second in the Big Ten.

** Joshua Perry is No. 1 on the team in career tackles (193) and solo tackles (114) and is within reach of a possible Top 10 standing -- all-time -- in career tackles at Ohio State with another productive year or last season (2015).

See how well he made out in 2015 ....LINK Below:

http://espn.go.com/college-football/player/_/id/534301/joshua-perry

** Through his Junior Year.....He's considered consistent (dependable), with at least five tackles in 20 consecutive games and in 23 games total ... he has also produced games of 10-or-more tackles four times.

** He has credits as a high achieving scholastic student....he was an OSU Scholar-Athlete following the 2012-13 academic year ...plus...he went to Costa Rica as part of the "Soles 4 Souls" program and spent a week distributing shoes to those in need...thus he has some humanitarian credentials.

he was an OSU Scholar-Athlete following the 2012-13 academic year.

GO PACK GO ! GO TT GO !!

When you put it like that is sounds exactly like Thompson.
