If anyone wants to post their mock, and then edit it that's fine. Your last version will be the official entrant.

1 - Texas - RB Reggie Bush (USC)
2 - Saints - QB Jay Cutler (Vanderbilt)
3 - Titans - OT D'Brickashaw Ferguson (Virginia)
4 - Jets - QB Matt Leinart (USC)
5 - Packers - DE Mario Williams (North Carolina State)
6 - 49ers - TE Vernon Davis (Maryland)
7 - Raiders - QB Vince Young (Texas)
8 - Bills - LB A.J. Hawk (Ohio State) (Bills want Bunkley, but can't pass on Hawk)
9 - Lions - OT Winston Justice (USC)
10 - Cardinals - RB Lendale White (USC)
11 - Rams - S Michael Huff (Texas)
12 - Browns - DT Haloti Ngata (Oregon)

[coastal]

that is a pretty neat draft right there dre.

[SCBILLFAN1]

The only thing is Denver is at 29 not Saints.

[SCBILLFAN1]

Ok here we go.
1. I think Houston will trade the pick to the Jets and they'll take Lienart
2. I think NO will trade down with Green Bay and GB takes R. Bush
3. Tenessee - Mario Williams
4. Texas- D' Brickshaw Ferguson
5. New Orleans - Vince Young
6. San Francisco - AJ Hawk
7. Oakland - Jay Cutler
8. Buffalo - Michael Huff (gut feeling here)
9. Detroit - Jimmy Williams
10. Arizona - DeAngelo Williams
11. St. Louis - Vernon Davis
12. Cleveland - Winston Justice
13. Baltimore - Lendale White
14. Philadelphia - Chad Jackson
15. Atlanta - Tye Hill
16. Miami - Haloti N'gata
17. Minnesota - Laurence Maloney
18. Dallas - Chad Greenway
19. San Diego - Brodrick Bunkley
20. KC - Tambi Hali
21. N. England - Ernie Sims
22. Denver - Bobby Carpenter
23. Tampa Bay - Gabe Watson
24. Cincy - Leonard Pope
25. NY Giants - Ashton Youboty
26. Chicago - Marcus McNiell
27. Carolina - Santonio Holmes
28. Jax - Demeco Ryans
29. Denver - Sinorice Moss
30. Indianapolis - Mathias Kiwanuka
31. Seattle - Ko. Simpson
32. Pittsburgh - Nick Mangold.

If there are no trades at the top and D' Brickshaw Ferguson gets by the Jets he falls to Buffalo.
I think the QB's are the wild cards. NO,Tennessee,NY Jets,Packers and Oakland could all end up moving around to get one of the big three.

Good point. Make sure, if your using the Range Mock draft for the order, you realize we had two trades in the 1st round. The Jets and Texans swapped picks and the Saints and Broncos. Your free to predict trades as well.

1) Texans- Reggie Bush RB USC
This has been known for months now
2) Saints- D'Brickshaw Fergueson OT Virginia
With the Gandy trade this makes the most sense
3) Titans- Mat Leinhart QB USC
Norm gets to coach Matt in college and in the pros
4) Jets- Mario Williams DE N.C. State
With Brick gone the Jets take the best available talent
5) Packers- A.J. Hawk LB Ohio St.
Makes the Packs D that much better. Possible DROY
6) 49ers- Jimmy Williams CB Virginia Tech
Name a 49er corner..... now you can after they take Williams
7) Raiders- Michael Huff S/CB Texas
Gibson never developed so it's time to move on
8) Bills- Broderick Bunkley DT Florida St.
Bunckley is the best pass rusher left
9) Lions- Winston Justice OT USC
The only team with a worse o-line then ours last season helps themeselves
10) Cardinals- Vince Young QB Texas
Will sit in his first year, but he will run the show in year 2
11) Rams- Vernon Davis TE Maryland
Bruce is getting old and no reciever is worth this pick, but Davis is
12) Browns- Haloti Ngata DT Oregon
Gets to learn the position under one of the greats in Washington
13) Ravens- Chad Jackson WR Florida
A bit of a reach, but Baltimore tries to go 2 for 2 with 1st round WR
14) Eagles- DeAngelo Williams RB Memphis
Don't let his height (5'9") fool you, he can carry the ball 20+ times
15) Broncos- Tamba Hali DE Penn St.
With Pryce leaving they need all the pass rush they can get
16) Dolphins- Chad Greenway LB Iowa
With Seau gone and Thomas on the decline this pick fills a need
17) Vikings- Jay Cutler QB Vanderbilt
Vikes need a QB for the future and are lucky to get Cutler here
18) Cowboys- Eric Winston OT Miami
O-line was a big problem for the boys last year
19) Chargers- Santonio Holmes WR Ohio St.
When your best WR is 36, it's time to get good young talent
20) Chiefs- Ashton Youboty CB Ohio St.
With the top 2 Wr's gone, they fill there next biggest need
21) Patriots- Kamerion Wimbley DE/LB Florida St.
It's time to get younger at LB where he will play in their 3-4
22) Broncos- Mathias Kiwanuka DE Boston College
Last year they loaded up on corners, this year it's DE's
23) Buccaneers- Ernie Sims LB Florida St.
Fits there system perfectly and adds youth to an old group
24) Bengals- Gabe Watson DT Michigan
Biggest need and Watson is all kinds of big
25) Giants- Johnathan Joseph CB South Carolina
Biggest need for the Giants is addressed with Joseph
26) Bears- Leonard Pope TE Georgia
Time for the offense to catch up to the D
27) Panthers- Demeco Ryans LB Alabama
This plus Thomas Davis will make up for Witherspoon's departure
28) Jaguars- D'Qwill Jackson LB Maryland
Will make plays with Stroud and Henderson up front
29) Jets- Nick Mangold C Ohio St.
Fills in for Mawai from day 1 and never looks back
30) Colts- Laurence Maroney RB Minnesota
Will make a bigger impact then Bush in rookie year
31) Seahawks- Max Jean-Gilles OG LSU
With the loss of Hutchinson this is a no brainer
32) Steelers- Sinorice Moss WR Miami
Fills the void at WR and PR left by Randel-El's departure

[jaymitch84]

1 Houston - Reggie Bush, RB, USC
The Texans have serious needs on the offensive line. But when you have
the opportunity to take a special player like Bush, you just don't pass it
up.

2 New Orleans - D'Brickashaw Ferguson, OT, Virginia
The Saints have two solid DE's in Charles Grant and Will Smith that are
both under 30, but their current starting LT has 6 games played and 0
starts. If New Orleans examines their own roster, this pick should be a
lock.

3 Tennessee - Matt Leinart, QB, USC
The odds of the Titans taking another position besides QB are at around
0.01%. Taking the most proven QB would be in their best interest.

4 N.Y. Jets - Mario Williams, DE, NC State
The Jets need to replace John Abraham, and this is the guy who can do it.
Some believe the Jets will opt for a QB, but I think they may have high
hopes for Patrick Ramsey at this point and time.

5 Green Bay - AJ Hawk, LB, Ohio State
Best player on the board. The Packers need an impact defensive player.
It makes perfect sense.

6 San Francisco - Vernon Davis, TE, Maryland
The 49ers three current tight ends combined for a whopping 18 catches last
season. A playmaking tight end might just be the answer to turning around
Alex Smith in his second season.

7 Oakland - Vince Young, QB, Texas
For some reason, and I'm not sure why, but I just feel like Vince Young
and Al Davis is a match made in heaven.

8 Buffalo - Michael Huff, DB, Texas
The Bills need to replace Lawyer Milloy. Huff is the answer. (And on
that note, if they decide to trade Nate Clements, Huff could be the answer
there instead.) The Bills will be able to find an impact DT in the second
round and find more OLine help in round 3.

9 Detroit – Jay Cutler, QB, Vanderbilt
The Lions have given up on their last first round pick QB. They’ve spent the last few drafts loading up at WR. It’s time to get someone to toss them the ball.

10 Arizona – Winston Justice, OT, USC
Supremely disappointed that Cutler didn’t fall to them, they try to do the next best thing and work on protecting whoever it is winds up back there.

11 St. Louis – Brodrick Bunkley, DT, Florida State
With Ryan Pickett gone, the Rams need to solidify the middle of their D-Line. They may want an OLB, but taking one here would be a reach.

12 Cleveland - Kamerion Wimbley, DE, Florida State
Cleveland still needs an OLB and a DE for their 3-4. Wimbley could fill whichever role they need.

13 Baltimore – Haloti Ngata, DT, Oregon
The defensive minded Ravens realize that Justin Bannan is not the answer in the middle of the line. I have a feeling they are going to be ecstatic when Ngata falls to them.

14 Philadelphia – Chad Jackson, WR, Florida
The Eagles would love to give Donovan McNabb a playmaker to work with, as opposed to that last one they had that worked against him.

15 Denver (from Atlanta) – DeAngelo Williams, RB, Memphis
Yeah, yeah, you can put anybody in the Broncos’ backfield and they can flourish because of the system and yada yada yada. Just put a guy with superstar potential back there and see what happens.

16 Miami – Jimmy Williams, DB, Virginia Tech
The Dolphins most glaring need is at corner, and I’m willing to bet that Jimmy Williams is the guy they will have their sights set on when the draft kicks off.

17 Minnesota – Chad Greenway, LB, Iowa
After the disappointment of not being able to work out a trade to move up for Cutler, the Vikings turn their attention to defense, where they get a couple highly rated linebackers to choose from.

18 Dallas – Tye Hill, DB, Clemson
Getting some help in the defensive backfield is a priority for Dallas heading into this draft, and they will have a good number of DBs to choose from at the 18th spot.

19 San Diego – Santonio Holmes, WR, Ohio State
Philip Rivers is going to need all the help he can get, because if he doesn’t succeed there are going to be a lot of pissed off Drew Brees supporters in Southern California.

20 Kansas City – Johnathan Joseph, DB, South Carolina
Another team taking advantage of the deep wealth of secondary talent offered up by this year’s draft.

21 New England – Ernie Sims, LB, Florida State
If you think that the Patriots are dumb enough to let Sims fall any farther in the draft, well, you’re wrong.

22 San Francisco (from Denver from Washington) – Manny Lawson, DE, NC State
The 49ers need a good tweener to mold into their 3-4 defense that they will be putting out this year, and Lawson is the guy.

23 Tampa Bay – Jason Allen, DB, Tennessee
Ronde Barber and Brian Kelly aren’t getting any younger.

24 Cincinnati – Donte Whitner, DB, Ohio State
The Bengals are recognizing the trend of the draft so far, and that’s defense. Don’t expect that to change yet. Whitner will be a nice addition to the group of no-name safeties they currently are putting out on the field.

25 N.Y. Giants – Tamba Hali, DE, Penn State
The Giants will get a nice boost from one of the top DE’s in this draft.

26 Chicago – Leonard Pope, TE, Georgia
This mass of man (over 6’7) will provide a playmaker on an offense that desperately needs one.

27 Carolina – LenDale White, RB, USC
The Panthers, while maybe cautioned by White’s recent injury due to their luck with running backs the last few seasons, will not be able to pass him up. White will be the thunder to DeShaun Foster’s lightning.

28 Jacksonville – Demeco Ryans, LB, Alabama
The Jaguars need some help in the linebacker category. Ryans will provide that help.

29 N.Y. Jets (from Denver) – Eric Winston, OT, Miami
The Jets worked on the DLine at the beginning of the draft, and now they will work on the OL with the second pick.

30 Indianapolis - Laurence Maroney, RB, Minnesota
The Colts aren’t going to sit on their hands and hope that Dominic Rhodes is a starting running back in this league.

31 Seattle – Ashton Youboty, DB, Ohio State
Seattle fans should be very happy with this pickup.

32 Pittsburgh – Sinorice Moss, WR, Miami
Ben Roethlisberger is salivating over the thought of having this guy to throw to.

Other Bills Picks:
42 Gabe Watson, DT, Michigan
70 Ryan O'Callaghan, OT, California
73 Charles Spencer, G, Pittsburgh
105 Leon Washington, RB, Florida State
134 Tim Dobbins, ILB, Iowa
143 Drew Olsen, QB, UCLA
178 Jamar Williams, OLB, Arizona State
216 Patrick Ross, C, Boston College
248 James Wyche, DE, Syracuse

[DolphinDevil28]

1. Houston Texans – Reggie Bush, RB, USC
NFL Comparison – Marshal Faulk
Recent Stock – Steady
There has been recent talk involving the possibility of Houston passing on Bush for Mario Williams or trading the pick. If that were to happen, I think Charlie Casserly and Gary Kubiak should be given the Wonderlic test to make sure they don’t score lower than Vince Young.

PROJECTED TRADE-New Orleans sends the 2nd pick to the New York Jets for the 4th and 29th picks.

2. New York Jets – Matt Leinart, QB, USC
NFL Comparison – Tom Brady
Recent Stock – Down
With the recent signing of Drew Brees, the New Orleans Saints no longer need to take a quarterback in the draft. The Jets, on the other hand, love Matt Leinart and if they want him they’ll have to jump the Titans who have the 3rd overall pick. The Titans like Leinart also. This trade makes too much sense to not happen. The Jets can make sure they get their QB and the Saints still get their man at the 4 spot.

3. Tennessee Titans – Vince Young, QB, Texas
NFL Comparison – Mike Vick
Recent Stock – Up
The Titans supposedly like Matt Leinart and Vince Young. So, with the Jets jumping up to take Leinart, the Titans settle for Young. However, didn’t they just draft a QB who couldn’t throw and was better suited to play wide receiver last year? In a few years, the Titans’ brain trust will kick themselves for not taking Jay Cutler, the best QB in the 2006 draft.

4. New Orleans Saints – Mario Williams, DE, North Carolina St.
NFL Comparison – Julius Peppers
Recent Stock – Steady
The Saints can’t go wrong with this pick. It’ll either be Williams or standout left tackle D’Brickashaw Ferguson from Virginia. However, the Saints love Williams and it’s easy to see why. They face Julius Peppers twice a year and they’d love to have one of their own. Mario Williams, Will Smith and Charles Grant form the best young defensive end trio in the NFL, bar none.

5. Green Bay Packers – D’Brickashaw Ferguson, OT, Virginia
NFL Comparison – Walter Jones
Recent Stock – Steady
Hey, Brett Favre, remember all that “I won’t retire if we get some impact players,” talk? (ahem, ahem…in other words, get some lineman to protect me for the love of Pete.) Well, guess what. You haven’t had a better left tackle in your whole career than Ferguson. It’s just a shame he’s on his way in when you are on your way out.

6. San Francisco 49ers – Vernon Davis, TE, Maryland
NFL Comparison – Jeremy Shockey
Recent Stock – Up
To say the 49ers have as many holes as Swiss cheese is a slap in the face to Swiss cheese. They could use help across the board, especially on defense. A.J. Hawk or Michael Huff would fit in great at this pick. But the 49ers need offensive weapons also. Vernon Davis is a revelation at the tight end position. He’s 255 lbs. and he runs a 4.38 40 time. There are running backs in the NFL who wish they were that fast. Also, Davis might help Alex Smith, you know…throw a touchdown pass every once in a while.

7. Oakland Raiders – A. J. Hawk, LB, Ohio St.
NFL Comparison – Takeo Spikes
Recent Stock – Steady
The Raiders would have taken Vince Young at this point, but they may not have the chance with the Jets and Titans picking in front of them. Hawk is an Al Davis type player. Crazy. Relentless. Butt-ugly. He’ll give the Raiders D an instant attitude.

8. Buffalo Bills – Winston Justice, OT, USC
NFL Comparison – Robert Gallery
Recent Stock – Way Up
The Bills need help on the offensive and defensive lines. Most mock drafts have them taking Haloti Ngata, the huge and fast defensive tackle from Oregon. That remains a good possibility. However, Justice has massive potential and had a killer Pro Day at USC. Justice is not the technician that D’Brickashaw Ferguson is, but he’s every bit as athletic. Justice would immediately become the Bills’ best offensive lineman.

9. Detroit Lions – Michael Huff, S, Texas
NFL Comparison – Ed Reed
Recent Stock – Steady
Huff is by far the best defensive back available in the draft, and some scouts have him rated as the best defensive player overall. The Lions could go for Jay Cutler also, but their defensive secondary needs another playmaker to go along with Dre Bly. Huff is a ballhawk, a good tackler and a big hitter. He would make receivers fear going over the middle of the Lions’ defense since…well, uh…when did the Lions come into the NFL?

10. Arizona Cardinals – Jay Cutler, QB, Vanderbilt
NFL Comparison – Brett Favre
Recent Stock – Steady
The Cardinals need offensive line help badly. However, taking a lineman at this point other than Ferguson and Justice, who are taken already, is a huge reach. Kurt Warner is on social security already and the Cards’ excellent young receivers need a long-term quarterback to get them the ball. I think Cutler at this point is the steal of the draft. Kudos to Denny Green for staying patient and waiting for the best QB in the draft to fall to him.

11. St. Louis Rams – Haloti Ngata, DT, Oregon
NFL Comparison – Shaun Rogers
Recent Stock – Down
The Rams have invested 1st round picks on defensive tackles in recent history, but I think new coach Scott Linehan is an advocate of the “take the best available player” philosophy. Ngata represents good value at the 11 spot and gives new defensive coordinator Jim Haslett an anchor in the middle of his defensive line. Ngata is a strong, massive run-stopper who shows flashes of penetrating the backfield also.

12. Cleveland Browns – Chad Greenway, LB, Iowa
NFL Comparison – Keith Bulluck
Recent Stock – Down
The Browns continue to add young talent to their revamped defense. Greenway is a perfect fit for Romeo Crennel’s scheme which places a responsibility on outside linebackers to read and react, cover backs and tight ends and blitz. Greenway can do all of the above. He’s smart, big and athletic.

13. Baltimore Ravens – Brodrick Bunkley, DT, Florida St.
NFL Comparison – La’Roi Glover
Recent Stock – Way Up
The Ravens lost defensive tackle Ma’ake Kemoeatu in free agency and they need someone to replace him who can hold up an opponent at the point of attack while also showing ability to penetrate the backfield. Enter Brodrick Bunkley, one of the draft’s fastest risers. Many pundits don’t think Bunkley will fall to 13, and that may be the case. Bunkley bench pressed 225 lbs. 44 times at the NFL Combine and ran close to a 4.9 40 time. Ladies and gents, this is a 310 lb. Defensive tackle we are talking about.

14. Philadelphia Eagles – Ernie Sims, LB, Florida St.
NFL Comparison – Lance Briggs
Recent Stock – Up
Keith Adams is a free agent and may not return to Philadelphia. The Eagles need fast, athletic and aggressive outside linebackers for Jim Johnson’s attacking blitz scheme. Sims is about as athletic as they come for outside linebackers. The Eagles could also go for a wide receiver, but Sims presents the best value.

15. Denver Broncos – DeAngelo Williams, RB, Memphis
NFL Comparison – Curtis Martin
Recent Stock – Down
Mike Shanahan misses the days of Terrell Davis. He had a premier running back who he could focus the offense around. DeAngelo Williams is a one-cut and downhill runner with good vision and good feet who will complement the Broncos’ offense perfectly. Tatum Bell has good vision and feet also, but he’s fumble and injury prone.

16. Miami Dolphins – Santonio Holmes, WR, Ohio St.
NFL Comparison – Marvin Harrison
Recent Stock – Up
The Dolphins cornerback position is in better shape than you think. They signed Will Allen, who lacks hands but is a good cover corner, as a free agent. Travis Daniels played very well last year in his rookie season. The wildcard of the group is Will Poole, a corner with a first-round grade when he came out in 2004, who is coming back from missing 2005 with a torn ACL. He says he is close to 100%.
The safety spot could use an upgrade, but no safety outside of Donte Whitner presents as much value as Santonio Holmes does at this spot.
The Fins have Chris Chambers and Marty Booker, but Mike Mularkey’s offense uses a lot of three wide receiver sets and Holmes would play a lot from day one. He’s polished, fast and runs great routes. He and Chambers would cause nightmares for opposing secondaries.

17. Minnesota Vikings – Laurence Maroney, RB, Minnesota
NFL Comparison – Carnell Williams
Recent Stock - Steady
Michael Bennett left for New Orleans, Ciatric Fason is not a franchise back, Mewelde Moore is a kick return specialist and Onterio Smith uses rubber falic devices to pass drug tests. The Vikings need a premier running back for their offense. They could use a young quarterback, but no QB in this draft presents value at the 17th pick. Maroney is a quick runner who can make defenders miss, and he will excel on turf in the NFL just like he did in college.

18. Dallas Cowboys – Jimmy Williams, CB/S, Virginia Tech
NFL Comparison – Chris McAlister
Recent Stock – Down
Williams’ stock has dropped somewhat due to an average pro day and off field concerns, but one cannot deny his talent. Williams is big, fast, physical and has fluid hips. However, he may not play up to his measureables at times. But you know Jerry Jones. Who cares about attitude and other stuff? If he’s talented, we’ll take him. The Cowboys need a free safety to pair with Roy Williams and another cornerback to go alongside Terrance Newman. Williams can play both corner and safety, but many think he’d make a better free safety in the NFL.

19. San Diego Chargers – Chad Jackson, WR, Florida
NFL Comparison – Amani Toomer
Recent Stock – Up
The Chargers could go for secondary help also, but Keenan McCardell is a member of the AARP and the Bolts need another young wideout for Philip Rivers to throw to. Jackson has great potential and with some coaching, can become more seasoned. Jackson is 6’1” and over 200 lbs. He possesses great speed and hands. His route-running and form is not quite on par with Santonio Holmes, but Jackson may have better long-term potential.

20. Kansas City Chiefs – Antonio Cromartie, CB, Florida St.
NFL Comparison – Charles Woodson
Recent Stock – Way Up
The Chiefs haven’t had a prime wide receiver in about 100 years, but with Santonio Holmes and Chad Jackson gone at this point, no wide receiver presents as much value as Cromartie does at pick 20. Cromartie would have been a no-brainer top 5 pick if it weren’t for a torn ACL that caused him to miss the 2005 season. “Cro’” is healthy now, and he even says he would have been able to play in the Orange Bowl last year. Even with Patrick Surtain, the Chiefs still need secondary help and Cromartie has everything you look for in a franchise corner. He’s big, fast, has swift hips and good ball skills.

21. New England Patriots – Kamerion Wimbley, DE/OLB, Florida St.
NFL Comparison – DeMarcus Ware
Recent Stock – Way Up
The Patriots could use some cornerback help here, but there is talk about Ty Law possibly coming back and no defensive back would present value at 21 like Wimbley would. Manny Lawson, another OLB/DE prospect who is very athletic is also a possibility. Both would fit into Bill Belichick’s 3-4 blitz scheme. Wimbley has smooth hips, he’s athletic, strong and smart. A Belichick player.

22. Denver Broncos – Manny Lawson, DE/OLB, North Carolina St.
NFL Comparison – Jason Taylor
Recent Stock – Up
The Broncos addressed their running back needs earlier with DeAngelo Williams. They would also like to upgrade at defensive end / outside linebacker with a premier pass rusher. Manny Lawson is 6’6” 250 and runs a 4.4 40 time. Not to mention a 40-inch vertical. That’s incredible for a defensive end. Lawson can play end in a 4-3 defense or outside linebacker in a hybrid 3-4/4-3. Teams like the Dolphins, Patriots and Steelers also like Lawson. But the Broncos could use another outside rusher and Shanahan goes for this incredible athlete at pick 22.

23. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Demeco Ryans, LB, Alabama
NFL Comparison – Cato June
Recent Stock – Down
Ryans fits perfectly with the Bucs’ 4-3 cover-two press defense. He’s a fast, athletic and rangy linebacker who can cover backs and tight ends in the flat. Ryans is probably one of the smartest players in this draft also, and John Gruden loves him and his style of play. If Ryans falls to 23, there’s a great chance he’s a Buccaneer.

24. Cincinnati Bengals – Donte Whitner, S, Ohio St.
NFL Comparison – Mike Doss
Recent Stock – Way Up
Madieu Williams got hurt last year, and the Bengals need a free safety to go alongside Dexter Jackson. Whitner can actually play corner or safety. Many think he’s better fit to play safety, but he’s multi-talented. Whitner is very fast, smart, instinctive and a ballhawk. The Bengals will be drafting for defense for the next four years, and Whitner is a great safety who could fall right into their laps.

25. New York Giants – Bobby Carpenter, LB, Ohio St.
NFL Comparison – LaVar Arrington, Free Agent
Recent Stock – Up
Carpenter is big, fast and is a great blitzer. He’s very instinctive and can run sideline-to-sideline. The Giants need a linebacker in the worst way. And here is a rare situation where one of the best players available fits a need also. If Carpenter falls to pick 25, this might be a lock. However, some team above New York may like Carpenter also. He may be the biggest sleeper in the first round.

26. Chicago Bears – Tye Hill, CB, Clemson
NFL Comparison – Antoine Winfield
Recent Stock – Steady
Yes, the Bears need offense. However, Jerry Azumah retired and the Monsters of the Midway also need a nickel back. Hill presents great value at pick 26 and will team with Charles Tillman and Nathan Vasher to form a formidable secondary. There will be good offensive weapons available in the 2nd round. Lovie Smith is another believer in the “take the best available player” theory.

27. Carolina Panthers – Thomas Howard, LB, UTEP
NFL Comparison – Derrick Brooks
Recent Stock – Steady
The Panthers’ D-line is very good. Their secondary is good also. However, the linebackers have lost Will Weatherspoon to the Rams. Thomas Davis, last years’ first-round pick, will be moving to outside linebacker in an attempt to bolster the position alongside middle linebacker Dan Morgan. The Panthers’ system requires rangy, athletic and physical outside linebackers. Thomas Howard is just that. Howard also possesses great size and good blitzing ability.

28. Jacksonville Jaguars – Leonard Pope, TE, Georgia
NFL Comparison – Jerramy Stevens
Recent Stock – Steady
The Jags could use another athletic outside linebacker, but with Bobby Carpenter and Thomas Howard taken, they opt for a big, tall and athletic target over the middle for QB Byron Leftwich. Pope is almost 6’8” and would be a great security blanket for Leftwich in case Reggie Williams or Matt Jones aren’t open.

29. New Orleans Saints – Ashton Youboty, CB, Ohio St.
NFL Comparison – Rashean Mathis
Recent Stock – Down
Ashton Youboty is a fast, physical cover corner in the mold of a young Sam Madison. He has a good extension and can jam a wide receiver at the line of scrimmage. The Saints need secondary help, and with the projected trade with the Jets, Youboty would come into New Orleans and start from day one opposite Mike McKenzie.
Side Note: How friggin good was the Ohio St. Defense in 2005? Wow. A.J. Hawk. Bobby Carpenter. Donte Whitner. Ashton Youboty. Man, Oh man alive. This would make a great draft for the Saints.

30. Indianapolis Colts – Joseph Addai, RB, LSU
NFL Comparison – Ahman Green
Recent Stock – Up
The Colts’ offense will take a step back in 2006 without Edgerrin James. The Edge is not only a top 5 running back in the NFL, but a top 5 player overall. However, there is hope in Indy. 2006 offers a deep running back draft class, and Joseph Addai can do it all. He’s a slash-type runner, which fits the Colts zone-blocking scheme. Addai is a great blocking running back, maybe the best in the draft. He’s also a good receiver out of the backfield. Addai is no Edgerrin James, but he fits the Colts’ offense nicely and will thrive in Indy.

31. Seattle Seahawks – Jason Allen, S/CB, Tennessee
NFL Comparison – Troy Vincent
Recent Stock - Up
The ‘Hawks have a very good offense, even though they could use wide receiver help. However, their biggest need is in the secondary. Just like Antonio Cromartie, if it weren’t for injury, Jason Allen from Tennessee could have been a top 10 selection. Allen is fast enough and has the swift hips to play cornerback. However, he also has the instincts and reaction speed to play safety. Can Allen come back from a bad hip injury? He ran a good time at the NFL Combine and has been impressive since.

32. Pittsburgh Steelers – Sinorice Moss, WR, Miami
NFL Comparison – Santana Moss
Recent Stock – Steady
The Steelers could go for safety help and a big, bruising running back with this pick. However, no safety presents value at this pick. And, LenDale White, a first round talent, has been out of shape for the past month because of a torn hamstring which will most likely drop him into the second round. The Steelers need a deep threat at wide receiver with Antoine Randle El leaving for the Redskins. Also, Moss can take over kick return duties for the departed Randle El.

The Bills drafted 3 1st rounders acording to my Mock. Whitner, Youboty, and Simpson.

Wait, so was it 1 point for getting any of the 3 things? So, for example, 1 point for correctly predicting QB to Tennessee, but also 1 point for predicting AJ Hawk to Green Bay?

[admarc]

1 pt for matching a player to a team, 1 pt for matching a player to a position and a bonus point for matching a player to a team in the right position. So if you hit dead on it's 3 points, but if, for example you had Ngata going at 12 to cleveland, you get 1 pt because he went at 12, but to Baltimore after the trade. I got a point for picking Justice to the Eagles, even though he went there in the 2nd round not the 1st.
