	Solid job FB, nice to see you have Denver getting Chris Williams....only thing is that I don't know if your pick of Otah to the Eagles will please their fans too much

	2. DTRIK19 , April 18, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	Otah won't be there at 19, neither will any of the decent Olinemen with the exception of Cherilus. Jenkins won't go befort DRC and why do you have Campbell back in the 1st? He's fallin. Other than that its pretty good...oh one other thing, I don't think Rivers will fall all the way to 18...he'll be scooped up quick

	2.1. tcbailey24 , April 18, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	Jenkins, to me, is the best CB in the draft

	2.1.1. DTRIK19 , April 18, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	Trust me bro, I've seen Jenkins play in person a few times...he was given safety help over the top way too frequently.

	2.1.1.1. tcbailey24 , April 18, 2008	0 pts \| \| \|
	I've seen him play a lot as well considering I live in Florida, and yes he has been given a lot of safety help, but to me, it seemed he did well in one on one situation when given the opportunity

	2.1.1.2. DTRIK19 , April 18, 2008	0 pts \| \| \|
	oh hes got talent, theres no denyin that....but he's a late 1st rounder I'd take McKelvin/DRC and maybe even Talib (because of return abilities) over him Jenkins

	2.1.2. Dewey , April 18, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	Or Leodis McKelvin. But I like M.J. also. He went to South Florida, which is cool because he could have gone to a bigger-name school but chose not to.

	2.2. fbkid15 , April 18, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	If McKelvin falls to the Saints I think they will pick him but other than that I think that Rivers will fall to the Lions at 15. I think the Lions originally planned on taking Mendenhall in the first round and Mayo in the second. But Mayo's stock has gone up so much this could be the only chance they have of getting him. After that the Cardinals and Vikings have bigger needs and if Rivers landed to the Texans he and DeMeco Ryans would make a great linebacker tandem for years to come. On Campbell I think that the Redskins will fall in love with his size and potential as they aren't that strong at the end position.I think they would consider trading up to get Malcolm Kelly in the second round as I originally thought that they would try going after him in the first.

	2.2.1. DTRIK19 , April 18, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	If McKelvin falls that far its a miracle. Most teams have him rated as the top CB in the draft and with his return abilities hes that much more valuable. I have to think NE will take either him or Rivers since they need help at both LB and CB. Their OL is pretty well set with 3 young pro bowlers

	Still not convinced that Miami will go with THAT Long. Nice read though :-)

	3.1. DTRIK19 , April 18, 2008 \| Reply	+1 pts \| \| \|
	Yea true, they did kinda let it slip about liking the OTHER Long

	3.1.1. ShadyMDUK , April 18, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	Or DID they? LOL. The conspiricy theorists are already having fun with that one!

	Dude its the Dolphins...I don't think they even know what they wanna do haha

	4. hiphop , April 18, 2008 \| Reply	+2 pts \| \| \|
	Solid job as always. -I know Albert's stock has risen lately but #7 seems high for a Guard (versatile as he may be) especially when considering that the Pats have lost some bodies on defense -The Ravens knew that McNair wasn't the long term answer at QB but with his retirement they might want to move up to get Matt Ryan. Assuming he slides by ATL at #3 look for KC to swap #1 picks with Baltimore and pick up another pick or a player.

	5. Dewey , April 18, 2008 \| Reply	+2 pts \| \| \|
	Felix Jones to Dallas is a great call.

	5.1. ShadyMDUK , April 18, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	Glad I'm not the only person who thinks that...

	5.2. DTRIK19 , April 18, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	are we assuming they won't resign barber or are you thinkin 1-2 punch??? theres really no change of pace with those guys, be reallllllllll easy for Philly to stop em

	5.2.1. ShadyMDUK , April 18, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	I'm thinking 1-2. It's a good way to go and I think a lot of teams are "rediscovering" the run in the NFL and realise it's too much to rely on one RB for a full season if you want to keep a balanced 'O'. If you can switch and swap two strong backs you keep your game fresh right in to the 4th Q and that wears down opponents, stretches the field for the pass and burns the clock while you have posession. You can build a pretty good team on the back of that.

	5.2.3. Love4DaStar , April 19, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	then I guess it would be reallll easy to stop your passing game with your recievers right dtrik19?

	Nice mock, I like where you have Mike Jenkins going. Where do you have the Hawaii receivers going?

	6.1. fbkid15 , April 19, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	Glad you like it. I think all of the Hawaii receivers will go from around rounds 5 to 7. None of them are very big or fast. Plus they will have the label of being a product of a system. Teams will look at the fact that the Broncos picked Ashley Lelie out of Hawaii a few years ago and he didn't pan out to what he was supposed to be.

	6.1.1. tcbailey24 , April 19, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	Ashley Lelie......oh God

	6.1.1.1. fbkid15 , April 19, 2008	0 pts \| \| \|
	I know TC he must have been so frustrating to watch on the Broncos. He had all the potential to be great but he made all the acrobatic catches and dropped the easy ones. I think he did have one 1,000 yard season though.

	6.1.1.2. tcbailey24 , April 19, 2008	0 pts \| \| \|
	I'm just glad he's gone and now we have good, possesion receivers like Darrell Jackson

	7. DMcnabb4MVP , April 18, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	No way that Otah would drop that far in the draft. Some people got him going in the top ten. But all round solid mock draft. You got better stuff then that Mel Keiper.

	If the Vikings trade for Jared Allen, that 17th pick would be going to KC. I'd rather trade for a proven DE than draft one and have to pay for something totally unproven. With the money draft picks are making I wouldn't be surprised if more teams try to trade out or just forfeit their picks in the future. Why pay a guy double what a veteran gets when he could Ryan Leaf?

	10.1. fbkid15 , April 19, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	I agree. If the Vikings do trade for Jared Allen it would be a great move for them. But considering it is not a done deal yet I have the Vikings going for who I think is the best player at a need position for them.

	i would love to get jeff otah

	12. HomeRunBaller , April 19, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	DeSean Jackson would be great for the Niners. They definitely need a star receiver and he could be that. Oh ya, and they need a QB not named Alex Smith, currently famous for partying with a Mexican dude and some hot girl.

	12.1. fbkid15 , April 19, 2008 \| Reply	0 pts \| \| \|
	Smith has been inconsistent and injured so far but considering he was the 1st pick of the draft only a few years ago, I don't think the Niners will give up on him yet. I wouldn't be surprised if they took somebody like Joe Flacco, Brian Brohm or Chad Henne in the second round. That would give them some depth and avoid having to spend another first round pick on a quarterback in the following years.

	Desean Jackson will never be a star receiver...star returner? maaaaybe
