New England will never pick #3, they will trade down into that latter part of round 1 and pick up some other picks.

James Laurinaitis is listed at about 9..no way they take him at 3...besides they wont draft an lb. unless its LT or urlacher.

you want dorsey? he has been injured all year. qb miami? heck miami might try and trade down.

wouldnt be surprised if pats look for a TE again. maybe an off lineman.

Aqua4Ever04

I don't include trade downs, that's too confusing and that's not how you do a mock.

Laurinitis is the best linebacker in the draft and that's where the Pats should go. I can't name 5 players better so I don't care who ranks him at 9, they're wrong.

Dorsey is the 2nd best player in the draft and fills Miami's biggest need. We just took a QB in the last draft in round 2, why would we take one this year?

nowayback

ok..if beck works for you. dorsey if he stays healthy seems very good.

RodThePat

One QB in the first round?? Not gonna happen.

Also, there's no way Atlanta takes Ryan if Petrino is still the HC. Brohm's his guy.

Spirit of '76

Actually, I see 3 QBs in 1st round.

What about WR Crabtree from TexTech?
6'3'', 222lbs.

125 recs., 1861 yds.

Unless he dissapoints at the combine, he will be a 1st round pick.

And RB Rice from Rutgers could be late 1st, early 2nd round.

Tough call right now. Given that I would pick between Long, Laurenitis and Jenkins; although the available names fail to excite me right now, McFadden and all the QB being available would lead to a good chance at a decent trade down I would think. Worst case for me is McFadden being gone and all the QB tanking in workouts. You don't have LT Michael Oher as available but if he comes out I like him better than Long and he would be intriguing.

crabtree is a freshman, or redshirt freshman.

Aqua4Ever04

There were only 2 QBs taken in last year's first round. This is my way of saying the QBs are over rated.
