I did a mock at Fanspeak this morning using the CBS Sports big board. I'm expecting the regular choices when whose name appears as still on the board? - Kevin White, WR, WVU.
I tried to trade down but couldn't find an acceptable deal so I went ahead and took him. OK, I don't see WR as a big need, particularly to use a first-rounder on, but a consensus Top 10 pick dropping to 28 is just too good to overlook.
What it did was make me rethink this draft and the post-Manning future. I took ILB Denzel Perryman with the second-rounder and then realized Bryce Petty was still there at 3-28. Petty strikes me as more of a Kubiak QB than Osweiler.
In the 4th, I took an undersized TE I hope we get if we don't draft Max Williams. Then filled out the rest of the draft with OL help and roster depth.
I don't think there's a chance in hell that Kevin White really falls to #28 but it did get me thinking that maybe this upcoming draft should be about transitioning to a Kubiak team from a Manning team.
