Mock Draft

First Round WITH COMMENTS


last updated: 03/26/07

==
01. Oakland Raiders - WR Calvin Johnson, Georgia Tech

[SIZE=-5]Fans want a QB, but Al Davis doesn't. C.J. is, by far, the best player in this draft and Randy Moss is leaving town.[/SIZE]
==
02. Detroit Lions - QB Brady Quinn, Notre Dame

[SIZE=-5]Quinn likely goes to one of his 'local' teams, as the economics of football come back into play.[/SIZE]
==
03.Cleveland Browns - RB Adrian Peterson, Oklahoma

[SIZE=-5]AD is generating a ton of buzz lately, CLE could trade the pick if they desire.[/SIZE]
==
04.Tampa Bay - QB Jamarcus Russell, Louisiana State

[SIZE=-5]"If" the Raiders pick C.J., we see them going for Russell. Bucs exec Doug Williams likes Jamarcus a lot.[/SIZE]
==
05. Arizona - OT Joe Thomas, Wisconsin

[SIZE=-5]The Cardinals see Matt Leinart as their franchise and need to protec their investment.[/SIZE]
==
06. Washington Redskins - DE Gaines Adams, Clemson

[SIZE=-5]The Redskins cash in on their only first day pick with the elite pass rusher from Clemson.[/SIZE]
==
07. Minnesota Vikings - DB Laron Landry, Louisiana State

[SIZE=-5]Trade down for WR perhaps, but if not their safety situation looks bleak.[/SIZE]
==
08. Atlanta Falcons - LB Patrick Willis, Mississippi

[SIZE=-5]Willis would make an instant impact on a Falcons defense that needs leadership and accountability.[/SIZE]
==
09.

Miami Dolphins - DE Jamaal Anderson, Arkansas

[SIZE=-5]Jason Taylor is not long for this league and the Dolphins need to plan for the future.[/SIZE]
==
10. Houston Texans - OT Levi Brown, Penn State

[SIZE=-5]Levi can step in at tackle and add talent to a O-Line that desperately needs a boost.[/SIZE]
==
11. Â San Fran 49ers - DL Adam Carriker, Nebraska

[SIZE=-5]Big Adam, who was star at the Senior Bowl and Indy, can play DE in the 49ers new 3-4 defense.[/SIZE]
==
12. Buffalo Bills - DT Alan Branch, Michigan

[SIZE=-5]The Bills have a real problem with a lack of defensive line bulk. Branch's slide stops here.[/SIZE]
==
13. St. Louis Rams - DT Amobi Okoye, Louisville

[SIZE=-5]The Rams need front line help and Okoye has potential, given time to grow into his frame.[/SIZE]
==
14. Carolina Panthers - LB Paul Posluszny, Penn State

[SIZE=-5]The Panthers never really recovered from the loss of Dan Morgan, they need to reload their LB corp.[/SIZE]
==
15. Pittsburgh Steelers - DE Anthony Spencer, Purdue

[SIZE=-5]The Steelers consider trading down but stuck with the pick, take a blue collar replacement for Joey Porter.[/SIZE]
==
16. Green Bay - RB Marshawn Lynch, California

[SIZE=-5]This is one of the few picks that hasn't changed since our first mock of the season. Can it remain unchanged?[/SIZE]
==
17. Jacksonville Jaguars - DB Reggie Nelson, Florida

[SIZE=-5]The Jaguars are seriously targeting safeties with their first pick, Nelson is still elite.[/SIZE]
==
18. Cincinnati Bengals - TE Greg Olsen, Miami

[SIZE=-5]The Bengals need tight end help and this speedster from Miami would give Palmer another offensive threat.[/SIZE]
==
19. Tennessee Titans - CB Leon Hall, Michigan

[SIZE=-5]Hall's 4.3 time in Indy might have the Titans considering alternatives to Pot Man Jones.[/SIZE]
==
20. N.Y. Giants - DB Michael Griffin, Texas

[SIZE=-5]Runs like a corneback; hits like a safety. We think he'd be a major upgrade over the existing talent. [/SIZE]
==
21. Denver Broncos - DE Charles Johnson, Georgia

[SIZE=-5]The Broncos pick Johnson and create a young, nasty defensive end duo with Elvis Dumervil.[/SIZE]
==
22.

Dallas Cowboys - WR Ted Ginn Jr., Ohio State

[SIZE=-5]The Boys are stacked at WR for now but need to plan ahead. Ginn will upgrade return game in the meantime.[/SIZE]
==
23. Kansas City Chiefs - WR Dwayne Bowe, Louisiana State

[SIZE=-5]The Chiefs need to spice up the offense, the pick is Bowe, should he fall or next best WR.[/SIZE]
==
24. New England Patriots (VIA Sea) - CB Chris Houston, Arkansas

[SIZE=-5]The Patriots have to bolster their defensive secondary, as a long term deal with Samuel seems unlikely.[/SIZE]
==
25. N.Y. Jets - OL Justin Blalock, Texas

[SIZE=-5]Intelligent road grader will enhance the Jets running attack and create push at the line of scrimmage.[/SIZE]
==
26. Philadelphia Eagles - CB Darrelle Revis, Pittsburgh

[SIZE=-5]The Eagles value CB as a priority position in the draft and need someone to step in at nickel right away.[/SIZE]
==
27. New Orleans Saints - CB Aaron Ross, Texas

[SIZE=-5]At some point, N.O. must address their lack of talent in the secondary. Tight end is also a possibility with this pick.[/SIZE]
==
28. New England Patriots - DE Jarvis Moss, Florida

[SIZE=-5]The Patriots pass rush needs to get younger and faster, Moss brings new blood to a top defense.[/SIZE]
==
29. Baltimore Ravens - OC Ryan Kalil, Southern Cal

[SIZE=-5]Flynn is getting up in age and Ozzie Newsome will see this Combine freak as a future O-Line anchor..[/SIZE]
==
30. San Diego Chargers - WR Anthony Gonzalez, Ohio State

[SIZE=-5]The playoffs have left the Chargers seriously considering an upgrade for the WR position & Gonzo had a great Combine.[/SIZE]
==
31.

Chicago Bears - OT Joe Staley, Central Michigan

[SIZE=-5]Staley's pro day 40-yard dash was blazing and he has proven he can be a top LT on Sundays.[/SIZE]
==
32. Indianapolis Colts - DT Justin Harrell, Tennessee

[SIZE=-5]The Colts could go WR here but Harrell is a tough player who can further improve the defense.[/SIZE]

Not a need spot for us but likely BPA if the draft fell this way.

 

[GCD960]

I know that he isnt 21 but this?

[SIZE=-5]Jason Taylor is not long for this league and the Dolphins need to plan for the future.[/SIZE]



Cmon, JTs replacement does not have t o be drafted this year

 

[Frayser]

I'm torn on whether Anderson or Carriker is a better fit for us.

I think the Steelers are higher on Jarvin Moss than Anthony Spencer. Spencer has been hovering at the top of the 2nd round for a while now.

The Titans taking Hall is interesting because it would be great value, but I think with the signing of Nick Harper they are hell bent on getting a WR. They really have nothing there now that Drew Bennett is gone. They also have two connections to WRs in 1) Jarrett coming from USC where offensive coordinator Norm Chow was (they are bringing Jarrett in for a meeting soon actually) and 2) Robert Meachem who would represent the hometown pick and make all the UT fans happy.

I also think Revis will be the second corner taken . . . particularly after his pro day.

 

[PHINFAN 4 LIFE]

I think we need to go with Levi Brown at 9.If not, we should trade down for Ted Ginn and get another 1st day pick.I think Jason Taylor is good for at least another 2-3 years. We need playmakers on offense so bad ! Ted Ginn in the middle of the 1st rd. sounds about right.Our o-line needs some major help too though.

There's a good chance Tim Crowder is there at #40. Him or Spencer would be good replacements for JT. I just feel like Anderson is strictly a 4-3 end.

Yeah that is why I tend to lean towards Carriker with that pick.

There really is an abundance of DE/LB tweeners in the first two or three rounds this year. I think Moss is going to be great. I would be very happy with Spencer at 40. Crowder I would rather have at 60 although he probably won't be there. If we wait until 60, we still might have a shot at Lamar Woodley or Quentin Moses.

I've been looking for some good write-ups on these guys and how they might fit a 3-4 but have yet to find anything all that great.

Russell to Tampa.....I stoped reading right there.

Ozzy rules!!

 

[Skeet84]

I would be sick to see Jarvis Moss go to the Pats.

 

[ottie35]

I dont know guys i see 2 of those 3 WR going in the first round. I think we need to take carr through FA, and take Brown if he is available at #9. IF not, take a shut down corner in Leon Hall.

 

[BuffBillsMan90]

After the trade yesterday, Bills are not likely to go DL early

 

[ottie35]

No, i think they will go after Marshawn Lynch if he is there at 12.........they really need a RB.

 

[fishypete]

Russell to Tampa.....I stoped reading right there.

Ozzy rules!!

It is funny...isn't. How many Tampa QB's does it take to screw in a light blub....as many as they can get.:D

 

[FinFrenzy]

Russell to Tampa.....I stoped reading right there.

Ozzy rules!!

That is pretty crazy.....Tampa traded for Plummer, signed Garcia to big money, Signed Sims to Big money and also have Gradowski and Mcnown on their roster for QB's. I don't know if they also have Rattay still.

 

[trate121hb]

We Need An Impact Player Now At 9 Not A Guy For The Future....give Me Brown Or Ginn
