Well there you have please let me know what you think and any question just ask i'll answwer them

 

[DaBruinz]

Sorry, but I think you missed the boat on Cleveland. They have themselves lined up to take Joe Thomas or Gaines Adams in the 1st round.

Also, I don't believe that the Raiders are going to sign David Carr and Draft Joe Thomas. Why? Because of how they got burned on Robert Gallery.

I wouldn't be surprised to see the Raiders sign someone like Mike Gandy to play LT.

I think that the Raiders will stick with drafting Jamarcus Russell because I believe that Lane Kiffen is enamored with him. As is Al Davis.

 

[DaBruinz]

Also, there is no way that the Pats only get a 2nd and 4th from Tampa for the 28th pick. The 2nd 16 of the 1st round is weighted much higher now that 2nd rounders are only allowed to be signed for 4 years.

Honestly, I think that the top 16, value wise, goes from 3000 points to about 1750 instead of 1000. And the bottom 16 goes from 1700 to 1000. And the 2nd rounders start off aroung 800

 

[DaBruinz]

I am interested in hearing your reasoning behind Aaron Ross ( a CB who supposedly doesn't have a lot of smarts and isn't a great tackler) is a good fit for the Pats.

 

[VJCPatriot]

Huh first of all if the Raiders passed on Jamarcus Russell they would be STUPID to pass on Calvin Johnson, the Reggie Bush of this year's draft. That totally does not make sense for them to draft a tackle #1 overall.

Second of all why would the Patriots pass up on the chance to draft Spencer to another team? They need another linebacker despite the AD signing. I just don't see the draft falling the way you put it.

Honestly? I don't see Spencer as a fit for the Pats. Some people do, but I don't. He's too much of a conversion project.

 

[VJCPatriot]

I think Spencer is closer to the mold of Bruschi than Poz as some people have been making comparisons. Spencer is a pass rushing linebacker. It's always good to have guys that can get after the QB. I could buy the argument that he is more of a top of the second round talent though. But I think he could be a good fit. What are we converting him to btw?

Ross is a good player, but why take him over some of the better CB's, LB's, or Safeties you still have on the board? I'de take Revis, or Griffin before I would Ross.

Actually....nevermind, that mock is all messed up.

Spencer is a pass rushing DE who has never played OLB except for at the Senior Bowl. And he did pretty poorly by all accounts.

 

[Mogamedogz]

I think you forgot Darrelle Revis. (not sure if you did it intentionally).

 

[A.C Vegas]

I just based it on what teams need (based on a draft website) and the scout.com rankings and i tried not to reach to far on thing.

I am going to do a second on soon and do more research into what team might be thinking.

GL man... this stuff gets addicting really quick. lol-

I liked the trades. I do feel this will be an active draft with alot of movement going on. I didn't like the Pat's not getting both of Tampa's 2nds.
