that would mean we have Jake Long, Chad Henne and Mario Manningham on our roster. So does that mean that Appalachin State could then beat the Miami Dolphins?

No, Dexter Jackson is no longer on their team.
 
He's better than Ted Ginn. I think he might be a good option at 3rd round considering we need a wide reciever and him and henne are on the same page. Chemistry is everything.
 
it means I cut with the grain instead of against the grain on my wrists because that is what is supposed to be done if you are doing it right.
 
Super Mario Please!! The guy has the tools to be a number 1. Take away all the off the field stuff and we would not even be talking about this guy. He is a Steal if we get him here. Please Bill!!! if there is one pick i really want it will be Super Mario
 
I don't know about Manningham, I think we need more size at the WR position. Both him and Ginn on the field at the same time spells touble in my mind.
 
The drafting of the Ginn family wouldn't look terrible would it now huh lol.

*Yes I like Henne like I wanted Henne like it says on my sig but that was if a couple of Qb's were taken in the first, which wasn't the scenario, we could have waited till the 64th to take him but well I'm not to mad about it, but hmm we coulda waited and gotten somebody else with more value.*

Don't get me wrong. You had this guy in your mock draft and I admittidly know very little about college talent besides what I read on Finheaven and hear about on NFLN. So big time props to you. I kn ow we need a CB badly, but which of these guys would you have rather had besides Henne? Just curious.

26(57) Miami (From San Diego) Chad Henne QB MICHIGAN
Henne has good size and very good arm strenghth, so he can find the open receiver and get him the ball. Much like Brohm, he's a student of the game; his ability to breakdown defense should improve with time. However, he's a little statuesque in the pocket so he has problems buying time in the pocket and is not a threat to scramble. More importantly, he has tendency to lock on to his primary receiver.

27(58) Tampa Bay (From Jacksonville) Dexter Jackson WR APPALACHIAN ST
Jackson is a small-school prospect who lacks ideal size and played in a read-option offense in college. As a result, there are obvious concerns about his ability to make the jump to the NFL. That said, there's no denying Jackson has great upside. He's quick, explodes out of his cuts and is dangerous after the catch. When teams try to take away the underneath he's fast enough to run by most corners. He does a decent job tracking the ball downfield.

28(59) Indianapolis Mike Pollak OC ARIZONA STATE
He isn't an overwhelming drive blocker and is going to have some problems when nose tackles line up directly over his head. However, he's the best center available. He gets into position quickly and has the balance to sustain his blocks. He also has the upper-body strength and lateral mobility to hold up in protection.

29(60) Green Bay Patrick Lee CB AUBURN
The argument can be made that Lee best fits in a Cover 2 scheme; he doesn't open his hips as well as some of the other corners in this class. However, he has enough athletic ability and speed to develop into an effective No. 2 for a team that plays mostly man coverage. In addition, there's a lot to like about his toughness, willingness to step up in run support and ability to contribute on special teams.

30(61) Dallas Martellus Bennett TE TEXAS A&M
Bennett isn't an elite run-blocker and doesnt have great top-end speed. However, he's a great value. Watching him on film and knowing that he played college basketball for two seasons, it's hard not to compare him to San Diego tight end Antonio Gates. Much like Gates, Bennett knows how to use his size to box defenders out and he can make tough catches in traffic. Taking the comparison even further, Bennett is versatile enough to flex out wide as Gates does in the Chargers' offense.

31(62) New England Terrence Wheatley CB COLORADO
Wheatley is another example of a player with durability concerns; he doesn't have great size and has a long history of injuries. On the plus side, he has the fluid hips, speed and burst to develop excellent man-to-man cover skills. In addition, he's a better tackler than his size would suggest; he can make plays in run support and covering punts.

32(63) NY Giants Terrell Thomas CB USC
Thomas doesn't open his hips that well and doesn't always get his head turned around to locate the ball while running with receivers down field. Consequently, he is vulnerable to getting beat deep when he's left on an island. He is also another player who has a long history of injuries. However, he has excellent size and he has good upper-body strength, so he can slow receivers down at the line. There's also a lot to like about his versatility; he can line up at safety and does a very good job covering kicks.
