[fenikz]

Good 1st pick for the Cardinals, but give us Groves in the 2nd and then Richardson or Griffith in the 3rd

[scottyboy]

i love the giants 1st pick, but the 2nd and 3rd rounders make absolutely ZERO sense for us

[grushcow]

i love the giants 1st pick, but the 2nd and 3rd rounders make absolutely ZERO sense for us
i feel that the G-Men are in need of a Center and that Eli may be reaching the end of the line, he hasn't been playing like a 1st rounder

[scar988]

4 Atlanta – Matt Ryan, QB, Boston College

- Bad pick. Not worth the #4 overall pick in any way shape or form. We get NT Glenn Dorsey here.

35 Atlanta – Sam Baker, OT, USC

- good pick

49 Atlanta (from Houston) – Ray Rice, RB, Rutgers*

- we won't get a RB in the first day unless we get McFadden in the first. we would get a QB here

67 Atlanta – Craig Steltz, S, LSU

- good pick

[thebow305]

phins draft sucks... dont even have to explain that one

[Bobo]

1st two rounds look good for the Titans. In the 3rd, I doubt they take a Mike. The last 2 years they have invested in that position. Maybe OLB for depth. But with Gooden still there maybe they take him and his speed makes him versatile enough to play inside or out.

PS, Eric Young plays for UT Tennessee, not UT Texas.

[SubNoize]

awful Raiders mock, Campbell would not be taken over Dorsey or Ellis, we need run support not an iffy edge rusher. In the second round Williams is an ok pick, but we would probably take Sweed or Doucet there with Porter likely gone next season. I don't think Oakland goes OL until round 5 or later.

49 Atlanta (from Houston) – Ray Rice, RB, Rutgers*

- best pick ever, we'd be lucky as hell if we got his awesomeness

67 Atlanta – Craig Steltz, S, LSU

fixed the breakdown of pick 49 for ya

[grushcow]

i don't need this, tell me why. im a phins fan an i like all those picks except flacco but he is a supreme talent

[scar988]

fixed the breakdown of pick 49 for ya

nice try. but no. Rice doesn't fit the power RB we do need. but we won't get a RB until 2nd day at the earliest unless it's D-Mac

[grushcow]

before anyone mentions anything my bad on the doubleing of calais campbell i completely missed that

[SubNoize]

NM.... I didn't see him going to Houston

[grushcow]

NM.... I didn't see him going to Houston
no he went to houston in the first

[DiG]

no chance the redskins trade up for a DT. They love Montgomery and Gholston playing alongside Griffin. If Ellis fell to them later then maybe but no way they trade up for him. Highsmith is decent in rd 2 but I'd rather have Lawrence Jackson and take Erin Henderson in rd. 1.

Hefney seems like a big reach in rd 3. Much rather have a pure man on man cover cb or oline.

[Yung Flippa]

I'm pretty sure that Calais Campbell can't get drafted twice.

[T-RICH49]

Good 1st and 2nd picks for KC but in the 3rd give us Bowman

[jackalope]

I like Green Bay's 1st two picks. Not sure about the 3rd, as TE isn't that big of a need.

Travis Beckum said that he will be staying for his senior season.

I don't see Ikegwuonu falling that far.

[Caddy]

If that was the Buc draft I would be mortified. Colt Brennan is the only bright spot on that whole first 3 rounds and I'm not that excited about him anyway. Matt Forte and Eddie Royal are just plain bad picks.

[DaBear89]

um, no way the bears trade up from 10 to 5 for woodson. i really don't see us trading up for any1 in this year's draft. especially if that person quite possibly could fall to us at 10. the only pick i like is bowman in the 3rd. and if the bears go through day 1 w/o taking an OT and taking a RB/Return guy we don't need(u do know the name devin hester rite?) and a DT we don't need(we've gone through like 4 on IR and our starting 2 aren't 100%), i quit rite now and join the rest of my household as browns fans. with reading the way ur draft goes i'ld much rather us take brohm at 10, trade up from the 2nd to maybe the 1st/2nd cusp to make sure we get an OT. and if we still had our late 3rd from SD a S like griffin would be nice

[Diehard]

12 Denver – Dan Connor, LB, Penn St

Makes perfect sense.

37 Denver (via/Baltimore) – Curtis Lofton, ILB, Oklahoma*

What the hell? The chance of taking LBs with our first two picks are slim-none to begin with. Then we move up to grab Lofton (???) when there are still guys like Erin Henderson, Beau Bell and Ali Highsmith on the board?

Uh, I'm not sure what this is all about, but I certainly don't like it...

[stl9erfan]

Overall, I love the Niners mock. Manningham in round 2 and Groves in round 3 would be truly awesome (even though I'd bet Groves, at least, will be long gone by then).

However, I don't think you'll see SF draft a guard in round 1. In part, this is because of a basic organizational philosophy that Nolan and McCloughan have that guards are replaceable, can be found in the middle rounds, and aren't worth a huge amount of money. Also, I think the team feels that Adam Snyder is a better fit at guard than tackle, so they'll see OT as a bigger need, and, based on your board, probably go for either Baker or Williams from Vanderbilt to bookend with Staley.

But in any case, this looks like a great draft from this Niner fan's point of view. I hope it shakes out more or less like this.

[Jakey]

Not a bad Steelers draft...but not great. I love Doucet in the 2nd!!! :)

[Don Killuminati]

Campbell over Dorsey & Ellis? Horrible. Not really feeling Chris Williams either. Both of Oakland's Day 1 picks really need to go to the defense unless they just really pull a rabbit out of their arse in FA.

[Young Legend]

Dorsey over Calais..

Chris Williams is a good pick but with Early Doucet still on the board he will be a better pick..

[gsorace]

I think I'm in love with the Jets draft.

[bearfan]

No offense, but this Bears mock is atrocious. We dont need to trade up to nab a QB like woodson, we could sit back and take one of the remaining 3 and be happy, or take the best OL avaliable. In the 2nd round...we already have a guy named Devin Hester who plays WR, KR, and has had experience at RB in college. Do we need another? No. 3rd round, Wr, ok thats a decent pick, DL isnt bad either, but we addressed absolutley none of our needs besides QB. OL is our biggest need, not 2 WRs, a DL, and a QB

imo chris johnson is a perfect compliment to benson (who is a joke), there are to many holes on this football team and it starts at QB and woodson is unlikely to drop past the 5-10 teams

[BaLLiN]

after the first round, things just fall apart

[Yung Flippa]

So would what would the Ravens get from that 2nd Round pick that we gave Denver?

[johbur]

Nice mock for Green Bay. Trading down shows knowledge of the past and the tendencies of the GM. Ted Thompson wants to bring in as many athletic guys as he can and have them engage in competition at every position.
