Mocking the Draft’s 2012 NFL Draft Prospect Notes

We have posted this reminder several times but I feel it is a good thing to continue. The Mocking the Draft staff has spent the summer watching games and developing notes on a ton of prospects. These notes are our basis for our evaluations that will impact our 2012 NFL Draft rankings. Of course, our opinions may change as the season progresses but it is important to factor in your original thoughts.

Our prospect notes provide you with a “first word” which is a quick summary of what we noticed. After the jump we bullet point the notes we took showing our thought process. Our prospect notes can be found on our rankings page making it easy to find the player your interested in.

This week we added reports on Kendall Reyes, William Vlachos, Levy Adcock, Ryan Tannehill, Janoris Jenkins, and Jacquies Smith. Mocking the Draft will continue to post new prospect notes each week and as we draw closer to the draft you will find in-depth scouting reports.

He’s a bit of a liability in the run game, but his potential in the pass game was enough for Buffalo Rumblings.

It’s a high-potential pick for a Detroit defense that needs a solid pass rusher.
