2011 NFL Draft: Mock Drafts For Round Four, Five

Walterfootball.com is one of the few sites that has been doing full re-mocks the day after for up to date information. So far today, they have up their round four and five mock drafts and expect their mocks for round six and seven later today.

Their round four mock has four current or future Mountain West players being taken:

99. Seattle Seahawks: Brandon Burton, CB, Utah 
Seattle has to fix its pass defense. Since it didn't take Jimmy Smith at No. 25, a corner like Brandon Burton will be an option in Round 4.

103. Arizona Cardinals: Chris Carter, DE/OLB, Fresno State
The Cardinals have to find a pass-rusher with an early Day 3 pick. They're incredibly weak at rush linebacker.

111. Miami Dolphins: Virgil Green, TE, Nevada
Anthony Fasano lost his greatest supporter when Bill Parcells left the front office. The Dolphins will be looking for an upgrade at tight end.

Miami likes Virgil Green. He's really athletic and possesses a ton of upside.

130. Tennessee Titans: Greg Salas, WR, Hawaii
The Titans brought in Randy Moss, thinking he could stretch the field and open up some room for Chris Johnson. Of course, teams had already figured out that Moss had nothing left. Tennessee could look for a wideout early on Day 3.

Their round five mock draft has only one Mountain West player:

143. Dallas Cowboys: Marcus Cannon, G, TCU
The Cowboys reportedly like Marcus Cannon. Or at least they did prior to the unfortunate biopsy. Cannon is now a late-round prospect who will have to sit out a year. Let's hope he can make a comeback and thrive in 2012.

Being a Cowboys fan myself I really like this pick, especially after the Cowboys for some reason to Oklahoma Soonner running back DeMarco Murrary for no apparent reason. If the Cowboys are patient with Cannon's recovery from lymphoma then they have a steal with this pick.
