Round 4

First, mock drafts are just conversation pieces. You would have a better chance of filling out a perfect Big Dance bracket while being struck by lightning than you would of getting a four round mock draft perfectly correct.

While they aren't accurate, when done by people who are tuned into league scuttlebutt, they can provide somewhat of a glimpse of how a player is thought of around the NFL and how they are trending.

Whereas Keanu Neal has been moving upward, Jonathan Bullard has been trending down since the NFL Combine. I think people are overthinking this. Go back and watch his senior season tape (also, this was done prior to Pro Day).

Kelvin Taylor in the fourth round --- really? I don't see that. He doesn't have size or speed or skill set or college production to justify going that high.
