I believe the Lions are in "win now" mode and that they will take a chance to draft Watkins. I’m mocking that Jacksonville will be tempted by extra picks to trade down to 10 for that 1st round and two second round picks (2014 & 2015). This is my first mock so, I made allowances for players falling past their expected draft location with a second choice. Let me know what you think.
