Its time!...Mock Draft Time

I dont think the Eagles will have any interest in Chester Taylor. Even if Westy retires. We'll move forward with McCoy and Weaver splitting carries. Eldra Bunkley is a decent 3rd string. He'll get cut if Westbrook stays on though.

If a team offers a 1st and a 4th for McNabb, i think AR would be nuts not to take it. Start Kolb, keep Vick and run 15 plays a game with him, increase his value for trade next year.
If we can get a good DE on FA, like... oh i dont know... Peppers, then we could use the 2 first rounders to get a stud safety like Mays (unless a team is dumb enough trade a high enough first rounder that makes Eric Berry viable, that though is never going to happen), and LB like Spikes or Weatherspoon. Use our 3rd for a CB, that immediate upgrades our D to an elite level imo.
Pipe dreams i know

I can see the Giants taking Spikes before you guys.

I see McLain and Spikes off the board beforehand unfortunately.

Weatherspoon may be a reach for your pick...I thought someone like the Colts would nab him.

thats probably not going to be far off if they line up the way they are now, id make a few changes there, will probably do my own mock in the coming days, except i dont expect TB and KC to be picking that high, i think one if not both, trade back for more picks.
Philli havent used their first rounder for years, they always trade up and down pending how the board breaks on the day. I can see them trading up this year to take a postion need who slides, as they did last year with Maclin.

I think how high Tebow is picked depends on how he performs at the combine. It will show if he has improved his mechanics.

FTR, my mock draft is as follows:

1 - STL: Suh, Ndamukong - DT - Nebraska
Best guy in the draft.
2 - DET: McCoy, Gerald - DT - Oklahoma
Lions will take which DT the Rams dont take
3 - TB: Berry, Eric - FS - Tennessee
So many needs, so they'll just take the best guy which is Berry
4 - WAS: Clausen, Jimmy - QB - Notre Dame
Campbell doesnt fit the system Shanahan will use, they need a franchise guy
5 - KC: Okung, Russell - T - Oklahoma St.
They need to improve the o-line and give Cassell time.
6 - SEA: Bradford, Sam - QB - Oklahoma
Hassellbeck isnt getting any younger or better, they'll go QB and take Bradford imo
7 - CLE: Haden, Joe - CB - Florida
The browns need to find a way to slow teams down. Haden's the best corner and potential Revis like shut down corner
8 - OAK: Dunlap, Carlos - DE - Florida
He's a physical freak, he'll put up very impressive combine numbers, the type of guy Crazy Al reaches for
9 - BUF: Davis, Anthony - T - Rutgers
With the 2 best QB's gone, they'll take a guy like Davis who can keep who ever is playing QB safe
10 - JAX: Tebow, Tim - QB - Florida
he sells tickets, which is the Jags biggest need right now
11 - DEN: Bryant, Dez - WR - Oklahoma St.
I cant see Marshall staying, they'll need to replace him.
12 - MIA: Cody, Terrence - DT - Alabama
Running the 34 D, the phins need to get younger and better at NT. Cody is the best NT prospect in the draft
13 - SF: Mcclain, Rolando - ILB - Alabama
not their biggest need, the type of smart and safe pick Singletary will go with imo
14 - SEA: Morgan, Derrick - DE - Georgia Tech
With QB locked up, they'll need a difference maker on D, they get a steal with Derrick Morgan here
15 - NYG: Spikes, Brandon - ILB - Florida
The G-men once feared d was average this year, they'll take Spikes to replace the recently released Peirce.
16 - TEN: Pierre-Paul, Jason - DE - South Florida
He's a good fit for what the Titans do in D, and with Vanden Bosch's future still in the air, this is a smart pick
17 - SF: Mays, Taylor - FS - USC
they ranked a pretty ordinary against the pass, and this guy lays the wood, exactly the type of physical speedy safety Singletary would like
18 - PIT: Campbell, Bruce - OT - Maryland
The Steelers O-line need help and with Mays and Berry gone, they'll address this need. Although taking Earl Thomas is an option here
19 - ATL: Robinson, Patrick - CB - Florida State
With Haden off the board, i think Atlanta will reach abit and take a punt on Robinson
20 - HOU: Spiller, C.J. - RB - Clemson
Slaton may not be ready to start the season and RB was a complete debacle for Houston last year, they are counting their lucky stars that Spiller slides to 20 for them
21 - CIN: Gresham, Jermaine - TE - Oklahoma
The Bengals and Palmer need a guy across the middle to lean on in the pass game, i cant even remember who plays TE for them! This is a given imo.
22 - NE: Kindle, Sergio - OLB - Texas
NE could go D line with this given they traded Seymour away but i Bellichick will take a guy that fits his system, thats Kindle imo
23 - GB: Williams, Trent - T - Oklahoma
The packers had a tough time keeping Rodgers upright, they'll look to address that in round 1
24 - PHI: Griffen, Everson - DE - USC
If they address DE in FA like i think they will, Sean Weatherspoon moves into this slot, if not they'll take the best DE on the board, that'll be Griffen imo
25 - BAL: Tate, Golden - WR - Notre Dame
With Dez Bryant off the board they take the next best WR in the draft - Golden Tate
26 - ARI: Weatherspoon, Sean - OLB - Missouri
I think at this spot there is not much left of Arizona's needs, so they take the best guy in the draft. Weatherspoons a play maker, cant have enough of them at LB
27 - DAL: Thomas, Earl - SS - Texas
Dallas dont have THAT many needs, Safety is one and they'll address it here
28 - SD: Best, Jahvid - RB - California
LT is going, they'll take someone to come in and work with Sporles
29 - NYJ: Benn, Arrelious - WR - Illinois
Their D is elite, no needs there, they have a great line and good RB's, i think they need targets for Sanchez, Edwards is inconsistant and its a crap shoot after that. Benn is quality, they'll take him i think
30 - MIN: McCoy, Colt - QB - Texas
Depends on Farve, im counting on Farve not coming back, in which case, i think they go QB and take a chance on McCoy
31 - IND: Iupati, Mike - OG - Idaho
Their Oline isnt as good as it appears sometimes, i think Caldwell knows this, and will see Iupati as a steal this late
32 - NO: Graham, Brandon - OLB - Michigan
After impressive performance at the Senior Bowl earning MVP honours and the top 4 LB's out already, the Saints will take Graham

Haden, that's the bloke scouts are talking up and saying he is the best CB and 2nd best is far behind him.

With Pick #9...and a lot of needs...Buffalo takes OT Trent Williams

While it may seem a bit of a reach...it was him or Bruce Campbell.

And I think Williams has more potential as a LT in this league.

With Bradford and Clauson off the board...I needed to go O-line

I wouldn't be surprised to see Bryan Price selected to be the figurehead of the new 3-4 scheme.

Jacksonville selects - Tim Tebow of Florida.
This was a bit difficult for me and obviously I changed my mind because I don't actually think Jacksonville are very sold on Tebow but their quarterback situation is pretty dire and they need to sell tickets.
I think they may take that risk.
And I think the Combine is needed, none of the Souths' quarterbacks performed well at the Senior Bowl.

Denver and Tom up next.

depending on who he picks...as i'm heading out to catch up with the missus the Dolphins will select either Dez Bryant (WR) or Ronaldo Maclain (ILB)

And with the Giants picks...it'll be either Brandon Spikes (ILB), Taylor Mays (SS) or Jason Pierre Paul (DE).
