LSWTF NFL Mock Draft Day Away Edition

Welcome once again everyone to the LSWTF Mock Draft. I know it's been quite some time, but I don't have a desk job anymore and I find myself more distracted at home then sitting in front of a computer all day. I will tell you I've done a great deal of mock drafts in the last few months...they just never seem to go from paper to screen.

ROUND ONE
1. Detroit Lions-Matt Stafford, QB, Georgia
We should know shortly whether or not this actually happens. I'm on the fence, but I think his agent and himself will look at the market and realize he could fall out of the top ten if he isn't selected first overall, which is why I think they get the deal done today.

2. St Louis Rams-Eugene Monroe, OT, Virginia
I'm sure plenty of you are thinking of Jason Smith here, and you'll be shocked to see how far he falls on my list, but Monroe is the more pro-ready tackle in my opinion. He can be plugged in day one, tackle or guard, and play at a high level. He also has the benefit of former teammate Chris Long being a Ram and possibly whispering sweet nothings into the office's ear about Monroe.

3. Kansas City Chiefs-Tyson Jackson, DE, LSU
He has been a rocketship this week. He's gone from the middle of the first round into a top five pick. Folks are hearing about his intensity, and how hard he plays, and blaming that for his ability to be gassed in the fourth quarter. I think it also may play into motivating Glenn Dorsey by giving him his former teammate.


4. Seattle Seahawks-Aaron Curry, OLB, Wake Forest
They let Julian go and now need his replacement and what an upgrade it is. They are always to move down as well so they could move down with a team in love with Aaron Curry say...the Patriots. They could move down with the Broncos or Jets who may or may not be in love with Mark Sanchez.

5. Cleveland Browns-Malcolm Jenkins, DB, Ohio State
Didn't see this one coming did ya? This was a popular pick late last year for the Browns and I'm bringing it back in style. I'm going with this with the idea that Edwards isn't traded, and in all likelihood that they will be trying to move down from the number 5 spot. I think they have their eye on a kid to play the outside backer spot at the top of the second round, and this selection makes the most sense. They haven't solved the "loss" of Sean Jones and there's no doubt he's a top ten talent and a playmaker.

6. Cincinnati Bengals-Andre Smith, OT, Alabama
Thought Jason Smith here didn't you? Word has it that the Bengals are in love with Andre Smith, and why shouldn't they be? All world talent in college, but at the end of his time in college there were some questionable things going on...sounds like a future Bengal to me!

7. Oakland Raiders-Michael Crabtree, WR, Texas Tech
For the third straight draft the Raiders will take the argued best offensive skill player in the draft in the first round. Jury is still out on Russell and MacFadden, but I think Crabtree should do well in the black hole. He's already accustomed to wearing all black for football and being around guns growing up in Texas, seems like a perfect fit.

8. Jacksonville Jaguars-Mark Sanchez, QB, USC
Yes, I realize they spent a ton of money on David Garrard. Yes, he had a hell of a year two years ago, but this last year he fell off a bit. So who comes back, last year or two years ago? I'm gonna say last year, but still plays well enough to keep Sanchez on the bench to learn and they ship him somewhere next year during the offseason.

9. Green Bay Packers-BJ Raji, DT, Boston College
Thankfully his name has been cleared by SI, but I don't think it will effect his draft status that much. The Browns may take a look at him, and so will the Jaguars, but I don't really see him moving past Green Bay.

10. San Francisco 49ers-Jason Smith, OT, Baylor
The Baylor alum takes the best player from Baylor since he graduated. He's got that Singletary type attitude and he should THRIVE under him. Not a huge need, not as much as a pass rusher, but hard to let pass this much talent.

11. Buffalo Bills-Brian Orakpo, DE, Texas
With all the talk of hybrids this hybrids that, I'm finding it very interesting that many of these so called hybrids are actually going to good ole fashioned 3/4 teams. I love this kid, I wouldn't be sad if the Browns took him, but I can see him falling just out of the top ten.

12. Denver Broncos-Robert Ayers, DE, Tennessee
A good number of players put on some weight from college to the pros and I believe Ayers will do just that so he can get to the playing size of a 3/4 DE. Now let me say this, this is my first official bust of the draft. I can't take a kid who had only 3 sacks last year and only 4 the year before it.

13. Washington Redskins-Michael Oher, OT, Ole Miss
I believe Michael Oher is getting heavily overlooked. At one point I had this kid the number one tackle in this class (which in my opinion is Jason Smith) and I would personally draft him over Andre Smith, so I think the Redskins are getting a steal at 13 and provides them with a real nice bookend.

14. New Orleans Saints-Knowshun Moreno, RB, Georgia
The Duece is loose elsewhere leaving only Reggie Bush to really run the ball. Oh, well there's Pierre Thomas but whatever. I think Moreno is the kind of running back they thought Bush was going to be (who in is own right is a hybrid). I think the tandem of Bush and Moreno is a dangerous one, and one that could open up Brees passing game...even more then it already is.

15. Houston Texans-Aaron Maybin, DE, Penn St
Freakish athletic ability, that's what I think about when I think about Aaron Maybin. I think the Texans make a bold and intelligent move if they bring this young man in. You put his speed and ability to rush the passer opposite Super Mario? I think Peyton is on the phone and begging the Colts to upgrade their offensive tackles in a hurry.

16. San Diego Chargers-Rey Maualuga, ILB, USC
The Chargers have been on the cusp of greatness for a few years now, but I see where they are missing one key ingredient to that the Chargers need to get to the Super Bowl. A Samoan linebacker from the University of Southern California.

17. New York Jets-Josh Freeman, QB, Kansas St
Whether it was a ploy for teams to trade up with them to draft Freeman or not, they told him they plan on drafting him...allegedly. I think he'll be a decent QB, just not the showstopper folks are making him out to be.

18. Denver Broncos via Bears-Darius Butler, CB, UConn
With Freeman gone upgrading their defense should continue. Ever since that tragic New Years Eve incident they've been missing someone who can produce opposite Champ Bailey. Butler is a fine cornerback who should do even better then expected once Bailey takes him under his wing.

19. Tampa Bay Buccaneers-Jeremy Maclin, WR, Missouri
It's amazing how a kid who once was a top ten pick could slide all the way to the number 19 slot. I love this kid, I think he's a playmaker in the mold of Steve Smith. One thing for certain, you no longer will hear how the Buccs only have had a few returns for touchdowns in their team's history.

20. Detroit Lions via Cowboys-Peria Jerry, DT, Ole Miss
If they still have this pick remember one key thing, their new coach is Jim Schwartz. He knows how much his success relied on Albert Haynesworth, and with Shaun Rogers gone in Detroit, he needs some inside presence on the defensive line. Now I wish the Browns would just suck it up, and take Jerry with the number five pick. I think this kid is going to be a superstar and is very close to being my favorite player in this draft.

21. Philadelphia Eagles-Brian Cushing, OLB, USC
With their tackle problems solved, and Moreno off the board, I can see the Eagles taking the smart road, taking a kid from Jersey and solving the giant hole that they have at weakside linebacker. I'm a huge fan of Cushing and I think he'd easily become one of their favorite players with the fans.

22. Minnesota Vikings-Percy Harvin, WR, Florida
They don't need a number one, but Harvin can be a solid number two. I think he'll be their version of DeSean Jackson and hopefully take some pressure off of Purple Jesus. Let us just hope he doesn't find his way onto the Love Boat up there in the land of a thousand lakes.

23. New England Patriots-Conor Barwin, OLB/DE/TE/Surgeon, Cincinnati
I've never have seen a player go into a draft more suited for any one team then I have with Conor Barwin. In college he was Cincinnati's tight end and defensive end. In New England he'd likely move to the 3/4 outside backer, play on the goalline, long snap, braid Tom Brady's hair and wash Belichek's hoodies.

24. Atlanta Falcons-James Laurinaitis, ILB, Ohio State
I think this selection for the Falcons will come down to USC versus Ohio State, Son of Matthews vs Son of Animal. I know there is Curtis Lofton, but I feel he's better suited for the WLB. You can plant Animal Jr. into the middle backer spot and let him loose. Plus, Atlanta was the home base for WCW, he'd be a huge hit with the locals.

25. Miami Dolphins-Alphonso Smith, CB, Wake Forest
Bill Parcells has a very interesting team being born there on the beach. One thing it needs, however, is a shut down cornerback. Alphonso Smith has been one of my favorite players in this draft since day one. I've watched him over the last few years and I think his game translates very well into the pro system.

26. Baltimore Ravens-Darrius Heyward-Bey, WR, Maryland
It's always nice to see a team take a local kid, so this makes sense to me. They need to give Joe Flacco a big tall target downfield, Mason isn't getting any younger you know. I know the initial reaction is gonna be, what about a linebacker?! There are a plethora of quality linebackers in this draft, it can wait a round.

27. Indianapolis Colts-Evander Hood, DT, Missouri
Though Peyton may be on the phone begging the new coaches for some protection, it won't matter if their defense can't stop the other team. I think Hood fits the style of player they adore there in Indy and I think he's a perfect fit for the Colts.

28. Buffalo Bills via Eagles via Panthers-William Beatty, OT, UConn
I never thought I'd see the day when two UConn FOOTBALL PLAYERS were taken in the first round. The word on the street is that the Bills are very impressed by Beatty and went into trading Peters to the Eagles for this selection as they felt he'd still be here.

29. New York Giants-Sean Smith, DB, Utah
Though Eli may be screaming for Nicks or Britt, if the Edwards trade doesn't get done, I think they need to address the secondary first especially with the emergence of the Arizona Cardinals. Sean Smith is a Tom Coughlin kind of player, and I think he'd gel well with that defense and their style of play.

30. Tennessee Titans-DJ Moore, CB, Vanderbilt
Many think WR, but that's never been the way that Jeff Fisher operates. WR isn't their biggest need, stoping Andre Johnson and Reggie Wayne is. I LOVE this kid, ADORE him, hell I want to adopt him and make him part of the tribe. I think this kid is going to be the next Deon Sanders, mark my words.

31. Arizona Cardinals-Beanie Wells, RB, Ohio State
The fact that Beanie Wells could fall this far is a bit of a shock. The kid is a football player and I think Wisenhunt will see that and pick him up to be his work horse. Yes they'll still have the Spider for third downs, but Wells is an every down back and taking the third down off should help slow the injuries.

32. Pittsburgh Steelers-Phil Loadholt, OT, Oklahoma
Though Big Ben gave them a bunch of credit after they won, the weak spot on this team is still the offensive line. Somehow someway Loadholt has worked his way back into the first round. I'm not a fan of the guy, I think he's a waste of a pick and will be fighting weight issues his entire career. But the Steelers seem to be big fans, so please draft him so we can blow him over and take out Big Ben.

ROUND TWO
1. Detroit Lions-Everette Brown, DE, Florida State
A shocking fall from grace, I think he'll be an every down player in Detroit.

2. St Louis Rams-Hakeem Nicks, WR, North Carolina
With Tory Holt gone, Bulger needs someone tall to throw the long ball to.

3. New England Patriot via Chiefs-Donald Brown, RB, UConn
Kills me to allow them to draft Brown, I think this kid is going to be the best RB in this class.

4. Cleveland Browns-Clay Matthews, OLB, USC
Look, this is the only pick I care about with the Browns. It is a sign of a return to glory if once again there is a Clay Matthews in the linebacker corps.

5. Seattle Seahawks-LeSean McCoy, RB, Pitt
So do you think they want only Julius Jones as their RB?

6. Cincinnati Bengals-Vontae Davis, CB, Illinois
They need to find a shutdown corner...one who is sober...

7. Jacksonville Jaguars-Kenny Britt, WR, Rutgers
Holt is only one man, but one who should be able to get Britt's head on right.

8. Oakland Raiders-Michael Johnson, DE, Georgia Tech
This is my Al Davis loves stopwatches draft pick.

9. Green Bay Packers-Jason Gilbert, DE, San Jose State
Probably has first round talent, the Packers get a real steal with him falling this far.

10. Buffalo Bills-Alex Mack, C, Cal
With the Steelers taking Loadass the best center in the draft falls to the Bills.

11. San Francisco 49ers-Louis Delmas, S, Western Michigan
Some were probably thinking WR, but do you want the number 7 WR or number 1 safety?

12. Miami Dolphins via Redskins-Eben Britton, OT, Arizona
A good right side compliment to Jake Long who Parcells should like.

13. New York Giants via Saints-Ron Brace, DT, Boston College
A pretty solid DT who really stuffs the run, should be a good fit for that defense.

14. Houston Texans-Max Unger, C, Oregon
They're now the zone blocking team of the NFL, the perfect place for my favorite lineman in the draft.

15. New England Patriots via Chargers-William Moore, S, Missouri
They need some help at the safety position and I think last year was a fluke for Moore, he should be a first rounder.

16. Denver Broncos-Frantz Joseph, ILB, FAU
Three picks, all on defense, can we guess where the problem lies with this team?

17. Chicago Bears-Brian Robiskie, WR, Ohio State
The Bears need tackles, but won't do any good if Cutler has no one to throw to.

18. Cleveland Browns via Buccaneers-Andre Brown, RB, NC State
If Robiskie lasts here, he's gone, but since he just went I think the Browns go after a RB who could be a giant steal.

19. Dallas Cowboys-Herman Johnson, G, LSU
The biggest baby ever born in Louisiana, his size is the perfect fit for the Cowboys.

20. New York Jets-Larry English, OLB, Northern Illinois
A real project, but one that could turn out very well and Ryan knows how that process is done.

21. Philadelphia Eagles-Juaquin Iglesias, WR, Eagles
Jackson is their big speed guy, Iglesias can be their version of Joe Jurevicius.

22. Minnesota Vikings-Pat White, QB, West Virginia
Rumor has it the Vikings are enthralled with White, and so am I. I personally think he's the best QB in the draft.

23. Atlanta Falcons-Patrick Chung, S, Oregon
A big time hitter, I think he's Mike Smith's type of football player.

24. Miami Dolphins-Derrick Williams, WR, Penn State
Gives them another option, plus put him back on kick return with Ginn Jr and where are you going to kick?

25. Baltimore Ravens-Asher Allen, CB, Georgia
They have all of a sudden become desperately thin at cornerback.

26. New England Patriots-Andy Levitre, G, Oregon State
Their offensive line is beginning to show its age, watch this draft be where they get their new line.

27. Carolina Panthers-Brandon Pettigrew, TE, Oklahoma State
A terrible fall, but nothing he did, which works out beautifully for the Panthers.

28. Indianapolis Colts-Brandon Tate, WR, North Carolina
Wayne and Gonzalez are great receivers but that offense needs a third receiver.

29. New York Giants-Patrick Turner, WR, USC
Probably a bit high for turner, but those above him are 6 foot or below, Turner is 6'5".

30. Tennessee Titans-Fili Moala, DT, USC
A shame he's fallen this far, I'm a bit fan of the kid and should do well for Jeff Fisher.

31. Arizona Cardinals-Clint Sintim, OLB, Virginia
Okeafor isn't getting any younger, he's been in the league for 11 years now.

32. Pittsburgh Steelers-Duke Robinson, G, Oklahoma
An entire Oklahoma side of the offensive line, even more reason for me to hate the Steelers.

2008 NFL Mock Draft Rounds 1-4 Jan 9th

The draft picture is becoming clearer each and every day as we have more and more underclassmen enter into the NFL Draft. The only two that really shocked me were Ryan Clady and Kevin Smith, who I think would have helped their draft position by staying for their senior year. The Andre Woodson rollercoaster of where he will land continues and is almost as interesting as the Darren McFadden one.

Once again I want to welcome everyone who has found our lil corner of the net and of course extend our wishes for your feedback and who you think your team should go after, what your team needs and the like. Also you may have heard rumors in your cities about where your team is headed, we'd love to hear those as well.

ROUND 1
1. Miami Dolphins-Glenn Dorsey, DT, LSU
There is no question in my mind that he will be the first overall selection after Monday's National Title game. Parcells drafted a defensive player in the first round each of his years as the coach in Dallas.
2. St Louis Rams-Jake Long, OT, Michigan
This is almost set in stone the minute Orlando Pace announces his retirement. Hell, it may be set in stone if he doesn't announce.
3. Atlanta Falcons-Matt Ryan, QB, Boston College
I think the key with this selection is who actually ends up being the Head Coach of the Falcons. I'm thinking they're going with an offensive minded coach, but if it is Singletary I wouldn't rule out Chris Long or James Laurinaitis.
4. Oakland Raiders-Chris Long, DE, Virginia
This selection couldn't fall to them any prettier if it was on a silver platter. Though I wouldn't put it past a team to try to trade up to get Darren McFadden.
5. Kansas City Chiefs-Ryan Clady, OT, Boise St
I still believe the Larry Johnson trade and selection of Darren McFadden is a definite possibility. The one thing though is who has the psychiatrist to deal with Larry Johnson?
6. New York Jets-Darren McFadden, RB, Arkansas
Let me defend this pick. The Jets and Patriots are entered into a blood feud now and there is now way Mangini is going to let the best offense in the NFL have Darren McFadden. They could trade out with a team who wants McFadden, but if they don't get the price they like they're going to take him, Thomas Jones be damned.
7. New England Patriots (via 49ers)-James Laurinaitis, ILB, Ohio St
The perfect fit for the son of Animal. If Seau stayed one more year, imagine what this kid could learn from the best inside linebacker of the 90s.
8. Baltimore Ravens-Brian Brohm, QB, Louisville
I almost don't think that Ozzie Newsome will draft a quarterback in the first round, especially when they can have their pick of cornerbacks here.
9. Cincinnati Bengals-Keith Rivers, OLB, USC
Protection of Carson Palmer is very important to this team, but protection doesn't mean dick if your defense couldn't stop a wet fart.
10. New Orleans Saints-Sedrick Ellis, DT, USC
They have some decent and talented defensive ends, but their defensive tackles are some of the worst starters in the league and the NFC South likes to run the ball.
11. Buffalo Bills-Aqib Talib, CB, Kansas
They play the Patriots twice a year, they need some talent corners to cover all those weapons Brady throws to.
12. Denver Broncos-Jeff Otah, OT, Pitt
They have bigger needs on defense, but all their chips right now is behind Jay Cutler, he must be protected at all costs.
13. Carolina Panthers-Andre Woodson, QB, Kentucky
This choice to me the longest out of the first round selections. It gives Woodson at least a year or two to learn the NFL game before having to start, as long as Delhomme stays healthy.
14. Chicago Bears-Kentwan Balmer, DT, North Carolina
I have to agree a bit with SayHey, they need that fourth man on their defensive line. This keeps the blockers off of their linebackers who then can unleash havoc upon the offense.
15. Detroit Lions-Fred Davis, TE, USC
Matt Millen will try to explain this pick that Fred Davis, while catching the ball, is technically NOT a wide receiver.
16. Arizona Cardinals-Rashard Mendenhall, RB, Illinois
Give the Cards two running backs who can give yourselves various looks. Edge is getting up there and I almost feel Mendenhall will end up the better back in the NFL then McFadden.
17. Minnesota Vikings-Vernon Gholston, DE, Ohio St
Not as impressive as I was expecting on Monday night, but still the second best defensive end in the draft by leaps and bounds.
18. Houston Texans-Kenny Phillips, S, Miami
They now have a huge playmaker at each level of the defense. Someone needs to come up with a catchy nickname for this defense quickly.
19. Philadelphia Eagles-DeSean Jackson, WR, Cal
They've always been hurt when Westbrook went down, now he doesn't have to do any returning and this gives them a very dangerous weapon to unleash on the NFC East.
20. Tampa Bay Buccaneers-Malcolm Jenkins, CB, Ohio State
He was the one defensive player for Ohio State that really stood out to me on Monday night, this kid is going to be a "shut down" corner in the NFL.
21. Washington Redskins-Lawrence Jackson, DE, USC
They finally get that pass rushing threat that they've been missing. Andre Carter gets free now and then, but now he has someone to compliment him.
22. Dallas Cowboys (via Browns)-Malcolm Kelly, WR, Oklahoma
I know, they have TO and possibly Crayton (free agent at the end of the season I believe) but TO isn't getting any younger, Crayton could be gone, Romo needs a wide receiver who is gonna be around for a long time.
23. Seattle Seahawks-John Carlson, TE, Notre Dame
When it comes to that offense, a tight end is needed more right now then a running back, that's why Carlson's number was called first.
24. Pittsburgh Steelers-Marcus Griffin, S, Texas
Without Troy that defensive secondary seems a bit lost. Not the hitter that Troy is, he does know where the balls go and makes many picks.
25. Tennessee Titans-Limas Sweed, WR, Texas
A familiar target for Vince Young, and perhaps one that will be around longer then only one year at a time.
26. New York Giants-Erin Henderson, OLB, Maryland
They have great defensive ends, an emerging secondary, but Antonio Pierce is the only linebacker they have that I have any faith in.
27. San Diego Chargers-Dan Connor, ILB, Penn State
With one pick only on the first day of the draft they have to select the best linebacker that is still on the board.
28. Jacksonville Jaguars-James Hardy, WR, Indiana
Go watch a youtube highlight clip of this kid to see how amazing he is, then imagine him being the first legitimate wide receiver that the Jaguars have had in years.
29. Green Bay Packers-Jonathon Stewart, RB, Oregon
Ryan Grant has emerged as a playmaker for the Packers, but he's been in the NFL for almost five years now. We also don't know if it is only a one year flash in the pan, they need a backup plan.
30. Dallas Cowboys-Sam Baker, OT, USC
You've given Tony Romo and big time target in Malcolm Kelly, now give him someone to cover his backside, front side, all sides.
31. San Francisco 49ers (via Colts)-Early Doucet, WR, LSU
In a way this is the perfect selection for the Niners considering who their new offensive coordinator is. He's a fast, sure handed wide receiver and Martz will try to use him like Issac Bruce.
32. New England Patriots-Forefit

ROUND 2
1. Miami Dolphins-Chris Williams, OT, Vanderbilt
Their offensive line isn't that bad, but you need to be careful just in case.
2. St Louis Rams-Mike Jenkins, CB, South Florida
The Rams have two huge needs, offensive line and secondary, we've started work on one...
3. Atlanta Falcons-Marcus Harrison, DT, Arkansas
They have two picks this round, you need tackles from both sides and Harrison is the higher rated of what is available.
4. Oakland Raiders-Michael Oher, OT, Ole Miss
He should stay in school, but looks like he's coming out to protect JaMarcus Russell.
5. Kansas City Chiefs-Brandon Flowers, CB, Virginia Tech
I thought he might have stayed in school, but they lose most of their defense so I suppose it is time to jump ship.
6. New York Jets-Vince Hall, ILB, Virginia Tech
Helps fill that inside and gives the Jets a solid football player.
7. San Francisco 49ers-Eugene Monroe, OT, Virginia
They started the outside building last year, time to finish it and start that pocket.
8. Baltimore Ravens-Reggie Smith, CB, Oklahoma
Oklahoma secondary is hit and miss in the NFL, they hope he's a part of the former.
9. Cincinnati Bengals-Trevor Laws, DT, Notre Dame
Teams were running on them like mad a points of the season.
10. New Orleans Saints-Justin Keller, TE, Purdue
Ask Drew Brees if he misses having a tight end like Antonio Gates.
11. Buffalo Bills-Ali Highsmith, OLB, LSU
A nice compliment to Poz, has the right demeanor for that Bills team.
12. Denver Broncos-Leodis McKelvin, CB, Troy State
Dre Bly wasn't able to perform like the late Darnett Williams.
13. Carolina Panthers-Mario Manningham, WR, Michigan
The Panthers finally get a TALL wide reciever, which should help getting the ball to Steve Smith.
14. Chicago Bears-Joe Flacco, QB, Delaware
They go against the grain here and take Flacco, little known to most but talent galore.
15. Detroit Lions-Jamie Silva, S, Boston College
They have bodies in the middle at the line and linebackers, but the secondary has been a gapping hole.
16. Arizona Cardinals-Gosder Cherilus, OT, Boston College
They need a dependable and solid tackle, which is Cherilus to a T.
17. Minnesota Vikings-Kevin Ellison, S, USC
A truly gifted football player, can benefit from learning from those veterans.
18. Atlanta Falcons (via Texans)-Phil Loadholt, OT, Oklahoma
No good having a quarterback who is always getting sacked, or a running game with Warrick Dunn that has no holes.
19. Philadelphia Eagles-Craig Steltz, S, LSU
They need a safety and Steltz is a player Phily fan would love the moment they saw him.
20. Tampa Bay Buccaneers-Geno Hayes, OLB, Florida ST
Derrick Brooks isn't getting much younger, Hayes could do wonders in Tampa.
21. Washington Redskins-Michael Hamlin, S, Clemson
Safeties are going fast, so they have to take Hamlin now before they're left with the scraps.
22. Cleveland Browns-Tyson Jackson, DE, LSU
He damn near dominated the National Title game, it would be a blessing if he fell this far.
23. Seattle Seahawks-Alex Mack, C, Cal
Their interior line has been shit since Steve Hutchinson left, they need to start over with it.
24. Pittsburgh Steelers-Robert Felton, G, Arkansas
They're gonna lose Faneca, so naturally someone is needed to replace him.
25. Tennessee Titans-Red Bryant, DT, Texas A&M
I'll be shocked if they're able to actually keep Haynesworth this year.
26. New York Giants-Tracy Porter, CB, Indiana
Their secondary is coming along, he could step into the number two slot or a very solid nickel back.
27. Miami Dolphins (via Chargers)-Charles Godfrey, CB, Iowa
Their secondary has been abused by Tom Brady constantly, Godfrey is a Parcells player if I've ever seen one.
28. Jacksonville Jaguars-Bruce Davis, OLB, UCLA
A really athletic outside backer to help that defense get even better.
29. Green Bay Packers-Barry Richardson, OT, Clemson
I want to ask you something, name one Packers offensive lineman.
30. Dallas Cowboys-Jonathon Godd, ILB, Vanderbilt
A position that has been lacking since Dat Ngyuen retired.
31. Indianapolis Colts-Carl Nicks, OT, Nebraska
Their offensive line was battered pretty bad this year, imagine him opposite Ugoh.
32. New England Patriots-Shawn Crabble, OLB, Michigan
Their linebackers are getting up there, time to restock the shelves.

ROUND 3
1. Miami Dolphins-Keenan Burton, WR, Kentucky
As of right now, is there anyone other then Ginn Jr for John Beck to throw to?
2. St Louis Rams-Derek Harvey, DE, Florida
A speedy defensive end who would do wonders on that indoor race track in St Louis.
3. Atlanta Falcons-DeJuan Tribble, CB, Boston College
The Falcons secondary talks a great game, and make interceptions, but also a lot of touchdowns.
4. New England Patriots (via Raiders)-Adrian Arrington, WR, Michigan
They will lose one or two receivers after this year, they need to restock and this kid raped Florida.
5. Kansas City Chiefs-Brian Robiskie, WR, Ohio State
A solid wide receiver with NFL blood which creates a reassuring corps for Croyle to throw to.
6. New York Jets-Calais Campbell, DE, Miami
They do love their Miami Hurricanes in New York.
7. San Francisco 49ers-Pat Sims, DT, Auburns
I think he should stay in college and help his status, but the Niners need to replace retiring Bryant Young.
8. Buffalo Bills (via Ravens)-Martellus Bennett, TE, Texas A&M
Just think of these stats, 6'6" 250lbs 4.75 40.
9. Cincinnati Bengals-Tony Hills, OT, Texas
Don't forget to protect Carson Palmer Marvin, your team can't without him.
10. New Orleans Saints-Ben Moffitt, ILB, South Florida
They have a defensive tackle, now they need someone behind him making tackles.
11. Buffalo Bills-Adam Kraus, G, Michigan
Someone has to get in the trenches and open holes for Marshawn Lynch.
12. Minnesota Vikings (via Broncos)-DJ Hall, WR, Alabama
Tavaris Jackson needs another weapon to lob the ball, excuse me, throw the ball to.
13. Carolina Panthers-Michael Johnson, DE, Georgia Tech
Imagine the following stats opposite Julius Peppers. 6'6", 255lbs, 4.55 40.
14. Chicago Bears-Lavelle Hawkins, WR, Cal
I honestly don't see Bernard Berrian staying in Chicago, do you?
15. Detroit Lions-Jamaal Charles, RB, Texas
When was there a season where Kevin Jones was healthy for all of it?
16. Arizona Cardinals-Frank Okam, DT, Texas
They usually take Michigan defensive tackles, it hasn't been working.
17. Minnesota Vikings-Chad Rinehart, G, Northern Iowa
Some have him rated the number one guard in the draft, him with Hutchinson ain't to shabby.
18. Houston Texans-Ray Rice, RB, Rutgers
This would be a complete steal at this point in the draft.
19. Philadelphia Eagles-Dorien Bryant, WR, Purdue
I know, another wide receiver, but came you name me an Eagle wide receiver?
20. Tampa Bay Buccaneers-Heath Benedict, OT, Newberry
Did you see the game on Sunday, Garcia didn't have a single second to even scratch his balls.
21. Washington Redskins-Earl Bennett, WR, Vanderbilt
There needs to be something else there, Randal El and Moss don't seem to be working for the Skins.
22. Cleveland Browns-Dre Moore, DT, Maryland
The dude is a rock with strength and speed, beautiful for the 3-4.
23. Seattle Seahawks-Kevin Smith, RB, UCF
They wait a few rounds and end up getting college football's rushing leader.
24. Pittsburgh Steelers-Mike McGlynn, OT, Pitt
They also may lose one of their starting tackles in the off season as well.
25. Tennessee Titans-Erik Young, G, Tennessee
They take a local kid to help open up some of those running lanes for their many running backs.
26. New York Giants-Terrance Taylor, DT, Michigan
This may be the weakest link on the Giants defense, and Taylor should be an upgrade.
27. Chicago Bears (via Chargers)-Chris Johnson, RB, East Carolina
Cedric Benson isn't working, and Peterson isn't a starter, late enough to take a chance.
28. Jacksonville Jaguars-Josh Barrett, S, Arizona State
They're getting long in the tooth in the safety region, great competitor.
29. Green Bay Packers-Steve Justice, C, Wake Forest
I still think Justice is the best interior lineman in this draft.
30. Dallas Cowboys-Cody Wallace, C, Texas A&M
Maybe a bit early for a lineman, but the Cowboys offensive line has been spotty all year long.
31. Indianapolis Colts-Quentin Groves, DE, Auburn
A speedy defender who can play down or standing and should wreck havoc for Tony Dungy.
32. New England Patriots-Dominique Rogers-Cromartie, CB, Tennessee State
A spunky player who should fit in and be easily molded by the team's veterans.

ROUND 4
1. Miami Dolphins-Mike Hart, RB, Michigan
You don't know how healthy Ronnie Brown is going to be, good solid backup.
2. St Louis Rams-Colt Brennan, QB, Hawaii
You know Gus isn't going to be your long term backup solution, and Brennan can sling it as long as he has blocking.
3. Atlanta Falcons-Matt Forte, RB, Tulane
Warrick Dunn is getting older and it's late enough to take a chance on Tulane.
4. Oakland Raiders-Josh Morgan, WR, Virginia Tech
Their wide receiving corps has become stale, time for some new blood.
5. Kansas City Chiefs-Allen Patrick, RB, Oklahoma
They run their running backs into the ground, they always need to replenish.
6. New York Jets-Donnie Avery, WR, Houston
Crochery and Coles are nice, but there needs to be a third option somewhere.
7. San Francisco 49ers-Roy Schuening, G, Oregon State
You have the outside set, time to bulk up the interior of it.
8. Baltimore Ravens-J Leman, ILB, Illinois
They have so many holes, they can only fill one at a time.
9. Cincinnati Bengals-Martin Rucker, TE, Missouri
A compliment to a solid wide receiving corps that every team needs.
10. New Orleans Saints-Antoine Cason, CB, Arizona
A playmaker in the secondary for a secondary who should all be fired.
11. Buffalo Bills-Wesley Woodard, OLB, Kentucky
This kid teamed with Ali Highsmith and Poz may give the Bills the best linebacking corps in the league.
12. Denver Broncos-Jacky Claude, G, Florida St
An excellent choice as he has the raw talent that can be molded to their taste.
13. Carolina Panthers-Phillip Wheeler, ILB, Georgia Tech
Beason has come on at the inside, but Wheeler is capable of playing outside.
14. Chicago Bears-John Greco, OT, Toledo
They are getting up there in age on the offensive line.
15. Detroit Lions-Chris Ellis, DE, Virginia Tech
Perhaps he can jump start a pass rush that only appeared against Denver.
16. Arizona Cardinals-Beau Bell, ILB, UNLV
I love this kid, and he may be able to do what DeMeco Ryans did for the Texans.
17. Minnesota Vikings-Pedro Sosa, OT, Rutgers
He knows how to block for great running backs.
18. Houston Texans-Shannon Tevaga, G, UCLA
Well, they wanted a wall to be built in Texas.
19. Philadelphia Eagles-Owen Schmitt, FB, West Virginia
I love this kid, and is a huge upgrade over Tapeth.
20. Tampa Bay Buccaneers-John David Booty, QB, USC
A tall rangey quarterback for Jon Gruden to groom into his type of QB.
21. New York Jets (via Redskins)-Jordan Grimes, G, Purdue
They need to continue to build up that offensive line of theirs.
22. Cleveland Browns-Darrell Robertson, DE, Georgia Tech
The kid can be moved to outside linebacker and be Willie McGinest's replacement.
23. Seattle Seahawks-Dennis Dixon, QB, Oregon
They are willing to take a chance at quarterback, see Seneca Wallace.
24. Pittsburgh Steelers-Chris Harrington, DE, Texas A&M
One can never have enough pass rushers.
25. Tennessee Titans-Adarius Bowman, WR, Oklahoma State
He would be the reliable number two or three receiver who will always catch the ball.
26. New York Giants-Peyton Hillis, FB, Arkansas
It is an upgrade over what they have and could give them a new look.
27. San Diego Chargers-Andre Fluellen, DT, Florida State
They need something in the middle of the defense, Fluellen fits that defenses' mentality.
28. Jacksonville Jaguars-Jack Ikegwuonu, CB, Wisconsin
Ikegwuonu is an absolute steal this late in the draft, they play the Colts twice a year and need corners for that.
29. Green Bay Packers-Trae Williams, CB, South Florida
Charles Woodson must teach his ways to a pupil, here is your student Master Woodson.
30. Dallas Cowboys-Jonathan Hefney, S, Tennessee
This isn't the year for the Cowboys to work on their safety issue.
31. Indianapolis Colts-David Vobora, ILB, Idaho
A good, solid, reliable player ya know the kind the Colts like on defense.
32. New England Patriots-Tom Zbikowski, S, Notre Dame
The perfect fit for that team and city, Zbikowski was born to be a Patriot.
