2009 NFL Mock Draft Game: Discussion/Vote Thread

[bakes781]

Do you think she/he's going to appear? How much time does he/she still has?

Technically their deadline isn't until 10am tomorrow, but seeing as how they haven't been active in 3 weeks it doesn't seem likely that they're gonna post.

I'm leaving in 30 minutes, so I'll leave it up to you guys.

The obvious pick for Philly would be RB Chris Wells OSU. That's my vote.

It's your call, but I'd wait until 10:01am. I'm set to make my pick at #22.

Let's start a vote now; the more votes the better.
Some folks are up late at night and others early in the morning.
If the he/she appears with their own selection: no harm/no foul.

Ok my vote is for Andre Smith OT Alabama if he falls this far.

- The Eagles signed Stacy Andrews but lost both Tra Thomas and Jon Runyan; that makes Philly's question easy: which OT do they take?
- OT's are a prized possession, and Michael Oher, Andre Smith and Eben Britton are all still available.
- I'll say they Andre Smith, hoping he may be the steal of the draft - and hope one of those other two is still available with their next pick.

 

[bakes781]

i like andre smith here too. someone else is going to have to make the pick. i'm on via my cell ;-) btw philly's picks are now up for grabs going forward.

 

[Seneschal2]

The Eagles have some roster versatility at OT now, and don't necessarily have to address the position in round one. But they also have needs at both TE and RB that have to be filled outside their roster. So with all of the TEs and RBs still available, who among TE Pettigrew (a slider), RBs Wells, Moreno, McCoy, D. Brown, is the higher valued player in round one?

I'd rule out TE, leaving the top 4 RBs available.

They just signed a FB as their big back to pair with Westbrook, so I'll rule out Wells.

Moreno is ranked #1 by NFL Draft Scout, Brown is ranked #3. Mayock has Brown ranked #2.

Brown has a scheduled workout with Philly. Moreno said Philly was one of two teams that showed the most interest at the Combine.

Philly fans seem to want a RB, so if I'm picking, RB Donald Brown is the selection.

15 minutes to Philly's deadline...

 

[patriotscpfc]

I go with Brown as well.

Despite the availability of Smith and Pettigrew, I say go with the need on this pick.

You never know who will be available at 28 as well for them.

 

[jmt57]

Right now there are three votes for Andre Smith, two for Donald Brown, and one for Chris Wells. Bakes is not available; any objections to declaring Andre Smith the pick and moving on?

 

[Seneschal2]

O.K. The board votes for OT Andre Smith. Smith received 3 votes vs 2 votes for Donald Brown.

 

[Seneschal2]

The Vikings selected OT Michael Oher. Their apparent #1 need is a RT. Oher appears versatile enough to play both sides as well as OG. A solid value pick when you consider his ranking and their need.

 

[CanadianPat'sFan]

Nice picks sorry I was late and did not vote but agree with the selection and would have voted that way. Is the run on OT going to start here as we still have a couple of good ones. I bet the guy with the Patriots is pi##ed a bit as he could have almost had a top OT in the draft, I still cannot believe these two slid down this far.

Can not wait for NE

 

[broadwayjoe]

I should also mention since neither VJCPatriot nor Richter have been active on this thread recently and both missed their deadlines the Packers and 49ers are now available to anyone who's not already participating.

Looks like you can also add Maroney39for6 to this list. So Bakes how will you recruit new GM's? I'm sure a couple of reliable GM's that are willing to help out here if no one comes forward. By the way Philly has another pick coming up soon.

I have KevinFaulk33's pick for New England since he was expecting the Philly and Minnesota picks to come more quickly then they did. I'm going to hold off and give him a chance to check back in today, assuming he's not too busy pinching the girls.

No girls!

I'll pick!

Heh! Nice pick. :singing:

 

[jmt57]

Well the choice of Barwin should make a few people here happy.
I take it you didn't think he'd still be available with the Pats' next pick?

 

[KevinFaulk-33]

I was undecided between him and a DB, and I thought that the DB would surely have chosen before # 34. But then I thought that the biggest hole of the Patriots was in the OLB corps, so I decided to take Barwin that could have went to Miami.

Due to the appreciation that there is on him on this board I tought that someone could have grabbed him. But I was very high on another player also.

P.S.: I hope that you understood what I wrote!

Well since no newbs have come in to claim 49ers or Packers, I'm gonna offer them up to the 2(Dallas & Carolina) who were without a 1st round pick.

As for Philly, since you spoke up 1st you can have them broadwayjoe

Heh! Nice pick. :singing:

lol I can see why you wanted to let Italy post the pick now!

Good choice KevinFaulk-33, but obviously(if you've read my posts) I had another name in mind. Hey you could always double up if ya want!
