The 2nd Annual ClanRam Round-Table Mock Draft: Discussion Thread

[Nick]

im curious nick,which side of the front 3 or 4(dont need to answer that if you think he`ll play UT in a front 4!) do you see Carricker playing?

Personally I would probably use him to spell Young on that LDE position in the 3-4, which means he's going to be lining up right over Alex Barron.

i think it was pretty much a no-brainer for the 40whiners to take him there....how did you enjoy being in their camp for 15minutes?

Wasn't fun. It was so tempting to give them a crap pick, but I didn't want to mess anything up. :x

Who would you pick if this is what the board looked like with the 13th pick of the 1st round in the 2007 mock draft?

3. Cleveland Browns: Adrian Peterson, RB, Oklahoma
4. Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Calvin Johnson, WR, Georgia Tech
5. Arizona Cardinals: Gaines Adams, DE, Clemson
6. Washington Redskins: Jamaal Anderson, DE, Arkansas
7. Minnesota Vikings: Brady Quinn, QB, Notre Dame
8. Atlanta Falcons (f/HOU): Laron Landry, S, LSU
9. Miami Dolphins: Levi Brown, OT, Penn State
10. Houston Texans (f/ATL): Leon Hall, CB, Michigan
11. San Francisco *****: Adam Carriker, DE, Nebraska
12. Buffalo Bills: Patrick Willis, MLB, Mississippi



Amobi Okoye, DT, Louisville
Alan Branch, DT, Michigan
Reggie Nelson, S, Florida
Marshawn Lynch, RB, California
Jarvis Moss, DE, Florida
Lawrence Timmons, LB, Florida State
Ted Ginn Jr., WR, Ohio State
Paul Posluzny, LB, Penn State

If we truly have a list like that, I would be in hog heaven!! I wouldn't know what to do! I would probally say Okoye...Branch looks good too, maybe Nelson. All would be good decisions.

Just say no to Revis ;-)

[Country]

The pick is Okoye someone just write it in and we can get going.

[viper]

I'd be happy with either Okoye or Branch. I'm kinda leaning towards Branch. Kennedy ain't it and Branch is the big body we need up front to replace him.

[Bar-bq]

Shocker...Reggie Nelson is a Jaguar. Who saw THAT coming?

All of the picks so far make sense, IMO, but I do feel Timmon's stock slipping a little. Then again, who else do you take with the 15th overall selection?

I've got kind of a curveball for the Steelers in the mock that I'm working on. And by curveball I mean something I haven't seen in many other mocks that I think is a possibility as the draft approaches.

Not to toot our collective horns, but.............this has the appearance of one of the most legitimate mocks I've seen. Maybe we're a little optimistic with Okoye @ 13, but other than that, this looks doable.

[RamWraith]

You are right HUB, the only problem with it is the trades that I think will happen. That will throw a HUGE wrench in what you see here. I can see a lot of movement this year, particularly in the top 15.

I'm predicting possibly twon or three trades depending on what goes down with the No. 1 pick.

If Russell is No.1

Detroit/Tampa trade
Atlanta/Washington trade
Washington/ Chicago trade
Miami/San Fran
Miami/ St. Louis???

If Johnson is No.1

I just don't know...

Branch?
Hall/Revis?
Nelson?
Pozluzsny?
Chris Houston?
Justin Harrell?

Are they shifting to the 4-3 base?

I would tend to agree, Wraith. Starting with the #2 pick. I think Johnson goes @ 2, but it may or may not (I'm guessing not) Detroit taking him. In Goodall's inaugurative draft, we will probably hear a lot of "there's a trade to announce."

[Rambos]

Hall/Revis I could see both guys bing good for the Steelers.

[Bar-bq]

How in the world Darelle revis AND Greg Olson lasted until the 25th pick is beyond me...Revis is now a Jet, and Olson is still on the board.
