Guys!! I want to thank everyone for making this Mock enjoyable. Special thanks for people who really helped out...... 1)Jasonjets..........here quite often, keeping the draft moving...PM people, making picks after 4 hours. Thanks Jason!! I've been busy the last 3 days at work,and Jason has stepped up without asking. 2)BakerMaker.......Taking over for a GM that wasn't making the Grade. Great Job. 3) Warhound 7.......The kind of GM every Mock Draft would hope for. Took 2 new teams in Rd 4, and has been a pleasure to deal with. 4) Wolftone..........Picked another team, making timely picks. 5) GH..............Last but not least, GH has been busy at School recently, but if it wasn't for desire to get this mock going, it wouldn't have happened. 6) JetfaninPA....almost forgot, For all your great reviews. Awesome Job.
I appreciate the kind words. I absolutely love participating in these mocks. I only regret I wasn't in it from the begining. P.S. I'm shaking my fist at you in anger for taking Duckworth off the board!!!
P.S. I'm shaking my fist at you in anger for taking Duckworth off the board!!! Hey, my player get's taken just before my pick all the time. Guys, I'm going to offline for about 3 hours...I will be back to make my Pats' pick after BakerMaker makes his 2 Saint picks.
Thank you WW85. I really enjoy doing this and it has been a pleasure to help out and keep the mock moving in any way I can. You have done a great job to keep this mock going at a steady, fast pace. We haven't run a smooth draft until this one, so that obviously shows something about the way you are running it. Now, only 3 more rounds!
The Rams need denfensive help including at leadt two stating LBs. Willis and Waters may be overkill but my Rams will remind a lot of people of the '86 Giants. Also, adding Gonzales and Pittman on offense makes a solid, balanced draft for the Rams so far.
I miss my teams :sad: but i visited the site about 3 times during the week so i had to give em up. Warhound your doing a great job! :up:
There was maybe one better CB than Bain still on the board but he has some character issues, compared to Bain who has a nice ceiling and can be a decent guy not too badly rushed in by New Orleans IMO.
I could think of 2 that are better, it wasn't a bad pick and Bain really is not that much worse than the guys I am thinking of, so it wasn't that bad. But the Black pick was very good value and talent there, I was debating to pick him for the Steelers, but decided a pounding RB would be more valuable, so good pick there. :up:
Cheers, Acknowledgement much appreciated, Alot of the members of this draft are very well respected by me, and many that I havent seen around much, its been a pleasure. The off season is a good time to get to know who will be coming into the leauge next year and doing the research for a draft makes the NFL all the more enjoyable. Sidenote, The Quincy Black pick is awesome, great fit in Arizona for a potentially great player
The Pats have drafted 3 needed defensive players with their first three selections.......Griffin, McCauley & Crowder. Time for some Offense, Faulk is getting long in the tooth, Dillion is gone, and Maroney is going to be the feature back. There isn't much depth, so Lorenzo Booker would be a nice change of pace/3rd down back. I'm really happy with my Patriot's draft....let's hope they don't do this well on April 28/29 .
Bain was a great pick, he has a ton of potential, and at this point there really isn't any other CB that can match his natural ability or ceiling.
Like I said before, I can think of 2 other CB's that I think surpass his natural ability and ceiling, but that is just a difference of opinion...
WR Mike Walker Central Florida 6' 2"/210 4.35 Forty {Official Combines} CHARGERS 1. Lawrence Timmons, ILB, Florida State 2. Brandon Siler, ILB, Florida 3. Antonio Johnson, DL, Miss State 4. Mike Walker, WR, Central Florida
I love the pick Jabba, you needed a WR there and he was definitely the best available, and probably better than some of the recent WR's selected before.
Thanks Jason :up: I didn't PM the Bears GM because Im not sure who it is, I know a few teams changed hands?
