2012 Fantasy Football Mock Draft
ROUND FIVE
5.01 Antonio Gates, TE, San Diego Chargers
Eric Mack of SportsIllustrated.com
#TwitMock 2012 5.01 TE Antonio Gates, SD: Healthier than in years. Loss of V-Jack will keep the primary targets on him. http://t.co/939X8IWk
— Eric Mack (@EricMackSports) August 15, 2012
5.02 Vincent Jackson, WR, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Jason Garcia of 365FantasySports.com
#TwitMock 5.02: Hoping V-Jack makes a big splash in new digs, helping Josh Freeman bounce back in the process. http://t.co/FjuGmXkt
— NitroDraft (@NitroDraft) August 15, 2012
5.03 Eric Decker, WR, Denver Broncos
Jim Day of FantasyTaz.com
#TwitMock 5.03: Decker was top 10 through 10 wks last year in this scoring with Orton & Tebow as Qbs. 7 of his 8 Tds. http://t.co/Ly3mtS0G
— Jim Day (@Fantasytaz) August 15, 2012
#TwitMock 5.03: With Peyton there Decker should finish in the top 10 for the whole season. http://t.co/Ly3mtS0G
— Jim Day (@Fantasytaz) August 15, 2012
5.04 Jeremy Maclin, WR, Philadelphia Eagles
Geoff Stein of MyFantasyLeague.com
#TwitMock 5.04: Jeremy Maclin, WR, PHI: Actually like him better in non-PPR leagues. Hard to go wrong with him as WR3. http://t.co/tv2ldzv2
— MyFantasyLeague.com (@MyFantasyLeague) August 15, 2012
5.05 DeSean Jackson, WR, Philadelphia Eagles
David Gonos of DavidGonos.com
#TwitMock 5.05 DeSean Jackson – Rare guy that has stinker contract yr in '11. Got paid, is healthy, ready for rebound http://t.co/CrKlxsJg
— David Gonos (@davidgonos) August 15, 2012
5.06 Reggie Bush, RB, Miami Dolphins
J.J. Zachariason of LateRoundQB.com
#TwitMock 5.06 Reggie Bush – The focal point of that offense, and good insurance for McGahee in round 5 http://t.co/xUpmpDlq
— JJ Zachariason (@LateRoundQB) August 15, 2012
5.07 Aaron Hernandez, TE, New England Patriots
Nick Radacanu of FantasyTrade411.com
#TwitMock 5.07 Aaron Hernandez – "Mock" me if you will. He's gonna have a better year than Gronk (kidding…sort of). http://t.co/91pXgBVJ

5.08 Shonn Greene, RB, N.Y. Jets
TC Cannon of FantasySharks.com
#TwitMock @_TCCannon selects Shonn Greene @ 5.08 – Greene will certainly out produce Tebow and can be FF Important as a cheap RB2. (I hope.)
— David Gonos (@davidgonos) August 15, 2012
5.09 Michael Vick, QB, Philadelphia Eagles
Bob Harris of FootballDiehards.com
#TwitMock 2012 5.09 QB Mike Vick, PHI: Trying to convince myself I like this pick; mostly less thrilled w other options http://t.co/7s7Vzvri
— Bob Harris (@footballdiehard) August 15, 2012
#TwitMock 2012 5.09 Vick cont'd… I do like him; full offseason helps and scoring system a plus if he runs more http://t.co/7s7Vzvri
— Bob Harris (@footballdiehard) August 15, 2012
5.10 Steve Johnson, WR, Buffalo Bills
Matt De Lima of FFToolbox.com
I'm a big fan of Stevie Wonder, plus I like him even more as a WR2. It also helps that the Bills have no receivers behind him. #TwitMock

5.11 Antonio Brown, WR, Pittsburgh Steelers
Jake Ciely of RotoExperts.com

— Jake Ciely (@allinkid) August 15, 2012
5.12 Matt Ryan, QB, Atlanta Falcons
Paul Greco of FantasyPros911.com

6.02 BenJarvus Green-Ellis, RB, Cincinnati Bengals
Jake Ciely of RotoExperts.com
#TwitMock 6.02 BenJarvus Green-Ellis, CIN: Not big BJGE fan, but looking at RBs left made me throw up in my mouth a bit http://t.co/eaFuD3HS
— Jake Ciely (@allinkid) August 15, 2012
6.03 Dwayne Bowe, WR, Kansas City Chiefs
Matt De Lima of FFToolbox.com
I tend to work under the assumption that holdouts will sign before Week 1. Hopefully Bowe reports sooner, rather than later. #TwitMock

6.04 Peyton Hillis, RB, Kansas City Chiefs
Bob Harris of FootballDiehards.com
#TwitMock 2012 6.04 RB Peyton Hillis, KC: my highest-ranked RB available; think he'll fare well in tandem w J. Charles http://t.co/7s7Vzvri
— Bob Harris (@footballdiehard) August 15, 2012
#TwitMock 2012 6.04 cont'd… Have been eager to get a piece of the Hillis-Daboll reunion; mission accomplished http://t.co/7s7Vzvri
— Bob Harris (@footballdiehard) August 15, 2012
6.05 Reggie Wayne, WR, Indianapolis Colts
TC Cannon of FantasySharks.com
#TwitMock 6.5 WR Wayne IND — My oh my. How the mighty have fallen. We salute WR Wayne for who he once was and pray for a few super months.

6.06 Pierre Garcon, WR, Washington Redskins
Nick Radacanu of FantasyTrade411.com

— Pizza with little pizzas on top (@StickToPizza) August 15, 2012
#TwitMock2012 6.06 Pierre Garcon (cont): That was my way of convincing myself that I don't hate this pick (cuz I do…) http://t.co/91pXgBVJ
— Pizza with little pizzas on top (@StickToPizza) August 15, 2012
6.07 Donald Brown, RB, Indianapolis Colts
J.J. Zachariason of LateRoundQB.com
#TwitMock 6.07 Donald Brown: Loading up on running backs with the big drop off at WR. He's my RB4, so I'm happy. http://t.co/xUpmpDlq
— JJ Zachariason (@LateRoundQB) August 15, 2012
6.08 Torrey Smith, WR, Baltimore Ravens
David Gonos of DavidGonos.com

6.09 Eli Manning, QB, N.Y. Giants
Geoff Stein of MyFantasyLeague.com
6.10 Ryan Williams, RB, Arizona Cardinals

6.11 C.J. Spiller, RB, Buffalo Bills
Jason Garcia of 365FantasySports.com

6.12 Tony Romo, QB, Dallas Cowboys
Eric Mack of SportsIllustrated.com
#TwitMock 2012 6.12 QB Tony Romo, DAL: Better than given credit; has great number of weapons to reach 4,000 yds, 30 TDs http://t.co/939X8IWk
