The Raiders can go ahead and make their pick right now and we can continue on, but the five hour limit doesn't start until tomorrow at 8 AM Eastern time.

1-1 Raiders take....Calvin Johnson

Lets get this thing rolling, shall we

Good morning,


With the first pick overall, RAIDER NATION welcomes……

WR-Calvin Johnson out of GeorgeTech

In 3 seasons with GT, Calvin amassed 178 receptions for almost 3000 yards and 28 touchdowns.
The 6 foot 5 inch 239 pound Junior has been taunted by many as the top WR to declare for the draft in over a decade. His 40 time of 4.35 puts him amongst the faster receivers entering the draft, with a frame that oozes athleticism
Couple all this together with an incredible attitude and you have the “Total Packageâ€Â.

Scott Wright states: “Think Terrell Owens without the attitudeâ€Â.

Raider GM AZFINFANMANG: “Randy Who? We have in our midsts the future for how WR will be perceived in this league.†We now have not 1 but 2 very capable QB’s in Trent and Jeff, now we have the ultimate target for them to throw to. WR records are going to fall, however, the records will remain in the Bay area, just with a different name attached to them….

EDIT:I know this is probably the surprise pick of the draft...and yes Sean did recieve the 100 vbux last night

With the 14th overall pick, the Miami Dolphins select...​

Defensive Tackle Amobi Okoye.

​

Amobi Okoye comes in a 19 year old prospect and will be 20 years old when the league starts. Entered Louisville as a freshman when he was only 16, from those four season he went on to make 121 tackles and 10.5 sacks, along with 23 tackles for loss. His potential is through the roof and can make himself into a great NT or DT with the right conditioning.

Miami's GM Matt Thunder stated, "Amobi is going to be a great player for years to come. With Okoye and Tripplett on the line, not to mention Roth and Taylor, our front seven will be scary. With such a strong front seven, it should only benefit the secondary."​
