Anthony - Its great that draft season is back and happy to see you are doing these mocks again. I am curious what information you have come across to put Malik Willis at #2 to the Lions. I get the strong sense from reading and listening to Jeremiah and Brugler that Willis is still a fringe 1st round talent and he really did not separate himself from Pickett at the Senior Bowl and Combine despite the wow plays. After both events, Brugler still had him going #18 and behind Pickett. So I'm curious what you information you have come across because I get the impression, this early on, that any QB would be a massive reach at #2.
Take it for what its worth, but I figured I would pass this along. Connor Hughes who covers the Jets got my attention last year when he said they would trade up to draft Vera-Tucker and the Jets did exactly that. On a podcast about a week ago he said something along the lines of he would put money on the Jets going pass rusher at #4 and WR at #10. I feel like he has been pretty consistent in mentioning Thibodeaux as an option at #4 as well.
