Daniel Jeremiah 2018 Mock Draft 1.0: Steelers Select LSU CB Donte Jackson

[Shoes]

It’s officially mock draft season for fans of 28 NFL teams and on Friday, Daniel Jeremiah of the NFL Network released his first prediction of 2018.
In his mock of the first round of the 2018 NFL Draft, Jeremiah has the Pittsburgh Steelers selecting LSU cornerback Donte Jackson with the 28th overall selection.
Jeremiah writes:
I wouldn’t be shocked if the Steelers took a running back like Derrius Guice or Ronald Jones here, but I have them landing a very talented cornerback instead. Jackson has inside/outside flexibility and he might be the fastest player in the entire draft.

I don’t see the Steelers drafting a CB. :huh:

Haden, Burns, Sutton, Hilton... I’m confident in those four.


I know, I know: “Burns sucks!!!” ...well, even if true, ILB, FS, and even OLB are far bigger needs.

Even with Burns regressing, they still have Haden, they still have a heck of a find in Hilton, and Sutton even showed promise in limited action. If Burns takes a step forward, they will be even better at the position

I could be wrong but Jeremiah's first steeler pick is normally off. He had us picking OJ Howard last year and Mackensie Alexander in 2016. I think we are safe. :chuckle:

Anyone know who has had the most accurate mocks over the years?

Well, better than OJ Simpson. But hey, it's a mock draft, anyone can take a stab at it.

Best collection I know of that rates how the mocks match to the actual picks.

Pun intended? Lol

Bell needs to go! ILB in 1st and RB in 2nd.

[Born2Steel]

IF...the Steelers went CB in the 1st, could that mean a move to safety for Haden? Sutton? I don't get the pick.

That's an idiotic prediction. It's more likely they trade up to draft a center, or something stupid like that.

That, or a prediction out of ignorance based on last year's information. Seems he forgot about Haden, Hilton, and Sutton.
