NFL mock draft #1-42...
Mar 12, 2008 | 6:57PM | report this
yes, I have no life... hope you enjoy made in a caffine fueled frenzy
Post what your critic and opinions, just dont be a #### about it (try and be constructive :) )

1. Dolphins Chris Long DE Virginia
There is a number of things that could be done with this pick as they could take Matt Ryan, McFadden, Dorsey, Ellis, or trade with Dallas for 2 1st round picks. However Chris is a proven player and is the safest pick by far regardless of the hype the truth is Long is a instant impact player.

2. Rams Jake Long OT Michigan
Where some can argue Gholston should go here (which he very well might) please consider the aging Rams offensive line and the fact they started tanking when 2 of their Starting O-linemen went down for the season. It probable be smart to move the aging Pace to the inside and take a safe sure thing in Jake who is a carbon copy of Joe Thomas and we all know how good he is.

3. Falcons Matt Ryan QB Boston College
The dirty birds are in complete rebuild mode, they have secured there running game so there would be no need for McFadden. They could draft Ellis or Dorsey but it wouldn’t do much good without a team leader that is where Ryan comes in. He is simply the best QB in the draft as he is big, poised, and has comeback ability will defiantly asset to the Falcons looking towards the future.

4. Raiders Darren McFadden RB Arkansas
With a stunning combine McFadden has just edge out Ellis who well address a need can’t compete with the sheer athletic brilliance of McFadden. I believe come time that the Raiders on the Clock everyone in there management will be thinking about what Adrian Peterson did for the Vikings or Marshawn #### did for the Bills.

5. Chiefs Sedrick Ellis DT USC
There is dilemma in Kansas what to do with the Franchise, they have made little movement so I’m going to assume there happy with what they got and are going to take the best player for there system.

6. Jets Vernon Gholston DE OSU
The Jets would be happy to take Gholston at this pick and I really don’t think it is that far of a stretch. Vernon had a good Combine but his productivity to me doesn’t warrant him to be 1 or 2 overall. Sort of the Mario William question from a few years ago sacks or touchdowns but, in this case the Jets need sacks.

7. Patriots* Leodis McKelvin CB Troy
After loosing Samual and #### the pats need to revamp there corner situation. They may be trying to get Law but that is just a temporary fix (because if it wasn’t the Pats would literally have the oldest defense and league).

8. Ravens Ryan Clady OT Boise State
Big Ogden aint getting any younger so, I believe this is a must for the Ravens who don’t need a RB, DT, or CB and its too early to take the 2nd best QB. With Clady they get a solid blocker who they can either start immediately or groom as the air apparent to Ogden.

9. Bengals Glenn Dorsey DT LSU
I honestly believe Dorsey should be the first or second pick but, there are heap loads of people who would disagree. If he falls this far the Bengals would get the best Athlete in the entire draft. He is a Warren Sapp type defender who will anchor their defense for years to come.

10. Saints Dominique Cromartie CB TSU
Man o’ man do the Saints need help in the secondary lucky for them there will be 2 good choice at this pick (the other being Jenkins). But, I believe Cromartie is the better on the 2, with lightening quick speed and good height he can compete with tall WR like Moss and Plex’ who where the x-factors for there respective teams.

11. Bills Devin Thomas WR Michigan State
12. Broncos Keith Rivers LB USC
13. Panthers Rashard Mendenhall RB Illinois
14. Bears Jonathan Stewart RB Oregon
15. Lions Mike Jenkins CB South Florida
16. Cardinals Derrick Harvey DE Florida
17. Vikings Malcolm Kelly WR Oklahoma
18. Texans Phillip Merling DE Clemson
19. Eagles Chris Williams OT Vanderbilt
20. Buccaneers Limas Sweed WR Texas
21. Redskin Kenny Phillips S Miami
22. Cowboys DeSean Jackson WR California
23. Steelers Jeff Otah OT Pittsburgh
24. Titans Early Doucet WR LSU
25. Seahawks Branden Albert OG Virginia
26. Jaguars Quention Groves DE Auburn
27. Chargers Antoine Cason CB Arizona
28. Cowboys Aqib Talib CB Kansas
29. 49ers James Hardy WR Indiana
30. Packers Brandon Flowers CB Virginia Tech
31. Gaints Dan Conner LB Penn State

32. Dolphins Brian Brohm QB Louisville (see there is a method to my madness!)
33. Rams Calais Campbell DE Miami
34. Raiders Sam Baker OT USC
35. Chiefs Carl Nicks OT Nebraska
36. Jets Kentwan Balmer DT North Carolina
37. Falcons Marcus Howard LB Georgia
38. Ravens Andre Woodson QB Kentucky (could also be Falco or Henne)
39. 49ers Felix Jones RB Arkansas
40. Saints Pat Sims DT Auburn
41. Bills Jerod Mayo LB Tennessee
42. Broncos Dre’ Moore DT Maryland

food for thought: Looking forward to the NFL 08' Draft
Nov 08, 2007 | 8:17PM | report this
Looking ahead to the NFL draft, its like christmas for me .. really next to the superbowl and the divisional championship games there is not a single NFL event I watch more intently.
Assuming that the 5 worst teams well… will keep on loosing what would your picks look like? This is what I foresee even before the bowl games and combines…

1.) Rams Jake Long Michigan OT Comparable to: Joe Thomas
Of all there problems (and there is plenty) the offense line of the Rams has been the worse. It is odd to see a lineman taken 1st overall but this is a major need with the status of a number starting lineman like Orlando Pace up in the air plus, there is (to me) not a good enough Defensive player to go 1st overall.

2.) Dolphins Glenn Dorsey LSU DT Comparable to: Warren Sapp
This guy can be the centerpiece of any defense and the Dolphins could use nearly anything on Defense. Currently, he led the LSU tigers amazing defense, which has yielded the fewest points. Dorsey can greatly improve the ‘Phins defense and keep O’linemen out of the secondary.

3.) Jets Calais Campbell Miami DE Comparable to: Mario Williams
Well, he may not be has polished as his contemporary upper classman Chris Long, he defiantly has the upside. So far the Jets have 9 sacks that is 29th in the league and it safe to say there defensive is in a sad state of affairs. Were some will claim that sacks are a meaningless statistic I would reply but pressure and field position aren’t so I think that the Jets would be wise to take Campbell whose length and speed on the edge will greatly improve there defense.

4.) Patriots* DeSean Jackson California WR Comparable to: Lee Evans
Hear me out; first off do to the trade to get this pick it is just plain highway robbery. Second it is unknown how much longer Randy Moss will be with the Patriots in the long run. Jackson would be the perfect insurance policy in case Randy wants more money when the pats win enough super bowls to make everyone physically sick.

5.) Falcons Andre Woodson Kentucky QB Comparable to: Donovan McNabb
The Falcons need a QB and it depends on who there sweet on Ryan or Woodson, I probable go Woodson though he has a powerful arm and impressive vision on the field.
He is mainly a pocket passer, which may fit the Falcons new system. He has a NFL legit deep ball and has tremendous poise.

Rounding up the top 10...
Raiders -Darren McFadden -RB -Arkansas
Bengals -Chris Long -DE -Virginia
Cardinals -Derrick Harvey -DE/LB -Florida
Bears -Matt Ryan -QB -BC
Vikings -Brian Brohm -QB -Louisville

Some tids bits of information

1 YI’s Holdout
It’s bad enough this guy has bust written all over him (like flashing lights and police tap). It’s bad enough the bucks wasted there 6th overall with Brewer, Harford, Wright, Noah, and many more talented players still on the board.
It’s bad enough he has about as much muscle tone as Joss Stone if not less…
What makes it worse… so very very worse is he is holding out because the Bucks have “two many tall players”. Hmmmm… They got Bogut at center and is he would be the only other 7 footer on the team. Perhaps I imagining things and the Bucks are chalk full of bigs.
On the otherhand what blows my mind completely is China doesn’t want to put him somewhere were he can learn, develop, and start…. No, no that would make too much sense, lets try to put him in the western conference were he will be dominate by vastly superior big men until he crys and goes home strapped with ice packs… and after he returns home and is nursing his broken arms the China’s Government will tell him he needs to think about “National Pride” and to quite nursing his broken arms or as the Chinese government would put it “personal life”.


2 Vick manages to play the tinman, the scarcrow, and the cowardly lion all at the same time.
First he doesn’t have the heart to be a role model or a quarterback
Second he does have the brain to realize “dog fighting is bad!?”
And third he doesn’t have the courage to come out profoundly deny this accusation and then completely disprove them.
Of course I will grant a reprieve for Mr. Vick and say they really haven’t proven anything and these charges may be completely and utterly false. I just have one question how can you have a PETA rally without Pam-ela Anderson, I mean come on !? Is it really that unsafe to walk the streets with Sacha Baron Cohen out on the prowl .


3 Food for thought

Refs cheating in Basketball, Mr. Stern?
see no evil , hear no evil speak no evil, Mr.. Stern replied

Do you think Mark Cuban will jump on this, and claim not only was he swindle by Don Nelson but he was robbed of a title by good old Robber Baron Stern and his lackeys
It shaping’ up to be a good episode of Scooby doo mysterious for Cuban…. Maybe he will just play baseball and compete in the only sport we have ever know to have ever had a fixed championship


I’m out… to learn why I keep only losing bets to Tim Donaghy
