Hey all, I know this board is innundated with mocks and draft talk and all of our heads are about to explode, but i did a first round mock today and thought i'd post it for my 99th or 100th post (somewhere around there) anyway. There's a bold trade, and a good jets trade too. see what you all think. I can't friggin wait fo the actual draft!!! 1. Texans -- Reggie Bush, RB, USC (they then trade him to the 49ers for the rights to D'Brickashaw, the 22nd pick overall, the 84th pick overall, and a 2nd round pick in 2007) 2. Saints -- Mario Williams, DE, NC St. 3. Titans -- Vince Young, QB, Texas 4. Jets -- Vernon Davis, TE, Maryland 5. Packers -- A.J. Hawk, LB, THE Ohio St. University 6. 49ers -- D'Brickashaw Ferguson, OT, Virginia (see Reggie Bush trade above) 7. Raiders -- Matt Lienert, QB, USC 8. Rams (from Bills - they swap #11 and #77 for #8) -- Jay Cutler, QB, Vandy 9. Lions -- Michael Huff, S, Texas 10. Cards -- Winston Justice, OT, USC 11. Bills (from Rams) -- Broderick Bunkley, DT, Florida St. 12. Browns -- Kamerion Wimbley, DE, Florida St. 13. Ravens -- Haloti N'Gata, DT, Oregon 14. Bucs (from Eagles -- they swap #23 and #59 for #14) -- Ernie Sims, LB, Florida St. 15. Broncos -- Chad Jackson, WR, Florida 16. Dolphins -- Santonio Holmes, WR, THE Ohio St. University 17. Jets (from Vikings -- they swap #29, #71 and #117 for #17) -- Manny Lawson, DE/LB, NC. St. 18. Cowboys -- Bobby Carpenter, LB, THE Ohio St. University 19. Chargers -- Tye Hill, CB, Clemson 20. Chiefs -- Antonio Cromartie, CB, Florida St. 21. Patriots -- Chad Greenway, OLB, Iowa 22. Texans (from 49ers) -- Jason Allen, FS, Tennessee 23. Eagles (from Bucs) -- Nick Mangold, C, THE Ohio St. University 24. Bengals -- Jonathan Joseph, CB, South Carolina 25. Giants -- Jimmy Williams, CB, Virginia Tech 26. Bears -- Sinorice Moss, WR, The U 27. Panthers -- Donte Whitner, S, THE Ohio St. University 28. Jags -- D'Angelo Williams, RB, Memphis 29. Vikings (from Jets) -- DeMeco Ryans, LB, Alabama 30. Colts -- Lawrence Maroney, RB, Minnesota 31. Seahawks -- Ashton Youboty, CB, THE Ohio St. University 32. Steelers -- Lendale White, RB, USC There it is! All of the trades add up according to the draft chart (http://www.thehuddlereport.com/NickelPackage/tradevaluechart.htm). The Bush trade is weird, but i have a strange feeling about it. Plus, he'd be reunited with his high school QB Alex Smith...and the 49ers really need playmakers. The Texans get the O-Line help they need, a FS that they need, an early 3rd rounder, and a 2nd next year...good deals for everyone. As for my Jets, they can then take a quality O-lineman at #35, another o-lineman, a QB or an RB at #99, and they still have an early 4th round pick as well. I think this would be the best case scenario for them... now go ahead and rip it apart!!
got to take leinart at #4!!! especially if mario is goie.. also i love the 29 and then get an ot at 35.... that would be my ideal mock right there
Don't like the Davis selection at #4. Indifferent on the trade up with Vikings, though with so many holes to fill, I don't think we can afford it (even though you've valued the trade correctly from a pick standpoint).
D'Brick at 4 over Vernon and Leinart is my ideal choice. I think our biggest hole is OT and D'Brick can fill it.
I don't understand why every single mock draft I've seen in the last 2 or so days has Leinart slipping to 7. If he came out last year he would have been #1. No way he slips past #4 this year. Even if we don't want him we would draft him at #4 and send him to Oakland or some other team via trade & pick up some extra picks/players.
