Good pick for GB Roy

[RoyHall#1]

Good pick for GB Roy

Yeah, I went out on a limb with that one, did I not?

[hugegmenfan]

good giants pick

[T-RICH49]

are you serious with that Chiefs pick?Staley, Jarrett or Ross would all be better picks

[Go_Eagles77]

Give the eagles Griffin over Timmons

I thought I read somewhere that the Chiefs were showing a ton of interest in Jackson, and CB is a big need for KC. BTW, no way Levi Brown is dropping to the Chiefs.

[Crazy_Chris]

Great Vikings pick

Great Vikings pick

Really? Wow, someone who doesn't actually hate Brady Quinn...

[WMD]

Don't think the Lions will take Joe Thomas. Calvin Johnson, Brady Quinn or Gaines Adams should be the pick.

[Caddy]

Good Buc pick

They can probably get Jackson in the 2nd. Bad Saints pick by the way. I don't see us reaching for McCauley (especially now when we signed Jason David to an offer sheet and most likely will get him). Houston is also a better player than McCauley and will be a more likely pick if you don't count in David. Jon Beason or Justin Harrell would also have been good picks.

I was so sold on the Lions taking Thomas a month ago that I have a problem differing from that, even though new evidence goes againsst that pick now.

[Sveen]

You now, the idea of a mock draft is predicting what's most likely to happen right now ;)

I still think CB is a legit 1st round need for the Saints, but I do think Houston will be higher on your board than McCauley. I must've thought Houston was already taken when I gave you Marcus, but I'll change the pick.

I still think they'll take Thomas... I'm just a lot less sure.
BTW, I changed the Saints pick.

[Sveen]

Looks better now. I personally think we will target Daymeion Huges in the 2nd and instead of a CB in the 1st will look at LB and DT there. But Ttat's just me, and I can't argue with anyone thinking we will pick up Houston or Ross in the 1st even though I don't think so (if we sign Jason David).

WR is also a rather large need for you guys... you're in a good spot needs wise. Your needs all have deep classes.

Well, I hate the Browns first round pick, but it is a mock draft and it's very realistic that we would take Russel if he's there.

... and that's the point of the whole thing ;)

[RaiderNation]

okay raider pick

[ripdw27]

pretty nice denver pick, even though i think we could still get him in the second but nice pick

[defensiveback23]

No offense but Jarret is the worst receiver the Chargers could pick in the first. We already have 3 big possession receivers, we need a playmaking deep threat.

[Steel Curtain XL]

I hate the Steeler pick. I have no problem with taking a CB in the first, but give us Revis. He's the better CB and he's a hometown boy(Pitt Univ)

[Vikes99ej]

I'm a fan of the Vikings pick.

[Finsfan79]

9. Miami Dolphins: Alan Branch

No no no

Willis or Brown there or a trade back and picking Staley

This is a Horrible Miami pick


We dont need a DE (in the 3-4 he would be a DE), Holliday and Roth play there with Manuel and Rodrique Wrights for backups and more for backups as well.

We have a young NT in Freddrick Evans.

Branch's value is not top 10 anymore anyways.

[RoyHall#1]

You guys need a NT and Branch can bulk up 10-15 pounds and play that in a 3-4. You gotta believe!

I believe Branch's value is definitely top 15, and I will stake my reputation on him going in the top 15.

[asmitty45]

No on thomas, give us adams

[RoyHall#1]

No on thomas, give us adams

It's who I think you'll pick, not who you want.
