    Gandhi mock draft 1.5

    My mock draft for this year is now concluded. I thought I would post this in a separate thread, since the other might be a bit confusing by now. I am obviously also evaluating myself in a game like this – only because it is entertaining. I mean, mock drafts are mostly about having fun, and...

    Gandhi mock draft

    For many years I have participated in a GM mock draft at a Danish platform. All 32 participants control their own team, and I obviously choose the Cardinals. Because I have 11 picks this year, I decided to write posts about each pick in this thread, and then update the original post as the game...

    1 – In a way I almost feel entitled to have big signings after going through a year where they waved the white flag before the games started. 2 – That said, Monti Ossenfort is obviously shaped from his previous bigtime executive roles - six years with the Patriots, and three with the Titans – a...

    My rankings at #4 and #27.

    Some notes: This is based on a fairly small amount of video clips. I will have to do a lot more research, and that will obviously reflect my opinions and rankings. So, take this for what it is worth. It is just my current thoughts, and it will change up until my yearly and only mock draft in...

    10 thoughts - Seahawks game

    1 – I am proud of the team. There is no giving up in them. They have been talent-inferior in every single game this season, but they have still managed to be competitive in most of them. They give their all and try as hard as they can. No, they are not playing at a high enough level, but I...

    Draft pick scenario

    @Devilmaycare, I don’t want to take over your points from the other thread (https://www.arizonasportsfans.com/forum/threads/if-mhj-is-gone-what-now.542946/post-5291343), but it inspired me to make this one, and I hope it is okay if I set it up in (in my opinion) a more manageable way? At least...

    10 thoughts - Eagles game

    1 – Screw up draft position + helping the 49ers clinch the #1 seed = nightmare. … and yet, I was smiling from ear to ear during the game. 2 – Okay, so getting Kyler Murray back from injury was not the magical, miracle comeback-medicine the team needed, but it might have been if he had played...

    10 thoughts - 49ers game

    1 - 2 – This season, the 49ers have only allowed 75 rushing yards on average, and this was the most they gave up since week 7 in 2017 (which was also the last time anyone came above 200 yards). So, there’s that. 3 – Well, that is also a way of saying eff you. #Wilks 4 – It was Dortch that...

    10 thoughts - Rams game

    1 – The problem with the defense is that it is full of backups. I would not mind several of them in a rotation, but only Jalen Thompson and Budda Baker should play significant snaps. 2 – A dominant wide receiver would do wonders for this offense. Thus, Marvin Harrison Jr. will go back to...

    10 thoughts - Falcons game

    I would like to apologize to my dear ASFN family, that I am boring you with the reason that this column is late, and that it is not so well-prepared. Last week, my Latin-American wife and our two children were denied a stay permit in Denmark, and thus, yesterday they travelled to England where...

    10 thoughts - Browns game

    My biggest takeaway from the negative articles is that we are now one step closer to finding out what Keim had on Bidwill, so that he didn’t get fired. Because it obviously has something to do with the working climate. Bidwill must have done something specific that is very wrong. Something that...

    10 thoughts - Murray's comeback

    1 – I cannot remember I have been this interested in watching the Cards since they drafted Murray – or maybe even back to the BA-days. 2 – Keep in mind that he has never (in the NFL) had other coaching staff than Kingsbury and co. They could potentially have been a problem in his development...

    10 thoughts - Seahawks game

    1 – Masterful illustration on how to not execute a fake punt. Effectively ruled out any realistic hope of a comeback. 2 – The overall defense will not get better until the D-line gets better. It all starts up front, and none from the current unit should be more than backups. 3 – Joey Blount...

    10 thoughts - Rams game

    1 – Josh Dobbs makes me appreciate Kyler Murray a lot more. 2 – It makes me sad to see the defensive lineup on the broadcast’ overview before the game. 3 – Once again you saw the potential with Zaven Collins. I would decline the contract option, but only to have him play out his rookie deal...

    10 thoughts - Cowboys game

    1 – I am very excited with this coaching staff. Looks like they have energized and motivated this team, and tactical-wise the Cowboys were simply outcoached. 2 – With pomp, circumstance, and high expectations they spent big resources on two middle linebackers, and then a relatively unknown...

    10 thoughts - training camp

    1 – The o-line definitely has potential, and the option for some to truly step up. I could see players such as Marquis Hayes, Hjalte Froholdt, Josh Jones, or Lecitus Smith get their breakthrough, and what about rookies such as Jon Gaines and Paris Johnson? Exciting battles coming up. 2 – Zaven...

    10 thoughts - draft

    Sorry for being late with this column. I was busy getting married. --------------- 1 – Paris Johnson has the makeup of a franchise cornerstone. 2 – I don’t watch many LSU-games, but I do read a lot of draft information, and many (credible) writers have analyzed Ojulari as one of the best pure...

    Day three - best available

    Cornerback Clark Phillips, Utah. - Slide down the board due to limited measurables, but has second round tape. Cornerback Eli Ricks, Alabama. - Shutdown potential, but comes with injury history. Cornerback Terell Smith, Minnesota. - Height-weight-speed. Battle tested in all schemes...

    Best available day two

    Cornerback Joey Porter, Notre Dame. Clearly my favorite pick. Big surprise to me that he did not go as CB3. Day one starter and tonesetter. Edge rusher Derick Hall, Auburn. Fits Gannon- and Rallis' (presumable) scheme very well. Center Steve Avila, TCU. Very strong. Could be day one starter...

    10 thoughts - draft - first round

    1 – How will Ossenfort approach the draft? Will he be like John Schneiders’ “we are smarter than everyone else,” or will he be Belichick’s “I don’t give a f*** about players’ value at different spots,” or Keim’s (post-Nkemdiche) “if you are not a team captain, you are off our board”? 2 – If...

    Gandhi mock draft

    Again this year I participated in a mock draft game (https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/americanfootball/gm-mock-2023-drafttr-den-t2050.html) with co-GM’s from all 32 teams. My main goal in the draft was to stabilize the Cards. To raise the floor. Stop the bleeding. In my opinion, that should be...

    10 thoughts - free agency

    1 – It would surprise me if they did not sign Jacoby Brissett. Worked with Petzing last year, one of the better backup quarterbacks in the NFL, and Ossenfort was involved in drafting Brissett. 2 – Please keep Zach Allen. By far my number one priority. 3 – Rumor has it that Byron Murphy is...

    20 thoughts - 2022 season - part 2

    1 – Cam Thomas showed me enough that I trust him in a bigger role next year – be it at defensive end or edge rusher. 2 – More than ten sacks three years in a row for Haason Reddick. Only one of those was with the Cardinals. Great self-scouting. 3 – They might have found something in Hollywood...

    20 thoughts - 2022 season - part 1

    1 – J.J. Watt brought back memories of Calais Campbell- and Darnell Dockett dominance from the defensive line. He proved every skeptic wrong. I bow to you, J.J. 2 – Kyler Murray’s biggest problem is his decision making. That’s not so impressive for a fourth-year player. 3 – Not a good season...

    15 thoughts - black Monday

    1 – With this much smoke, rumors and indications, I think it is fair to say that it is more than just a flirt between Sean Payton and the Cardinals. And it seems a little like a variation of Stockholm Syndrome if you don’t want that. 2 – Depression level from “heart rate 40 to full-blown...
