Carolina Panthers select - QB Brian Brohm, Louisville They can start grooming their next QB behind a 32 year old Jake Delhomme next year, and that gives Carolina the luxury of grooming their QB of the future the right way ... let him sit and learn for a year or two, then make a smooth transition from Delhomme to Brohm when the time is right And this is how you setup "franchise stability" .. best way to assure you can remain a viable contender into the future, without having to scrape rock bottom and start from scratch, is to make sure you are set at the QB position for the next decade plus .. that's why Carolina shuns "Instant Gratification" and opts for the long term stability Brian Brohm offers BTW, this is the best "Value Pick" of the draft thus far .. Panthers secure a probable franchise QB and a TOP 10 lock in the 20's :up:

Since the polls weren't very good last year, we'll try something else this year. Every couple of weeks we can take the first round draft order and do a "quick draft." Rules: -You make a pick for the team that's OTC -You can make no more then 4 picks total for the round -You cannot pick for back-to-back teams -Make picks with 100% seriousness - a selection of the league's best punter at first overall will be discarded. -Yes you can draft anyone that's draft eligible this year (juniors that may or may not declare) but please try and keep it to guys like Adrian Peterson and Calvin Johnson who have seriously talked about coming out. (draft order as of 11/22) 1. Detroit Lions 2. Arizona Cardinals 3. Oakland Raiders 4. Houston Texans 5. Washington Redskins 6. Cleveland Browns 7. Tampa Bay Bucs 8. Tennessee Titans 9. Minnesota Vikings 10. St. Louis Rams 11. Green Bay Packers 12. Miami Dolphins 13. Pittsburgh Steelers 14. Buffalo Bills 15. Atlanta Falcons 16. New York Jets 17. San Francisco 49ers 18. Philadelphia Eagles 19. Cincinnati Bengals 20. Dallas Cowboys 21. New England Patriots (from Seattle) 22. Carolina Panthers 23. New Orleans Saints 24. Jacksonville Jaguars 25. Kansas City Chiefs 26. New York Giants 27. New England Patriots 28. Denver Broncos 29. San Diego Chargers 30. Baltimore Ravens 31. Chicago Bears 32. Indianapolis Colts I'll start off. 1. Detroit Lions select QB Brady Quinn, Notre Dame Kitna and McCown are both decent starting options, but that is all they are. In order to fully take care of the Mike Martz offense and the receiving depth there, they'll need a very intelligent QB with arm strength to guide them there. Oh and also, Quinn is going to be hyped as "the next Brady" with his experience under Weis. It's a match made in heaven, and almost a guaranteed pick at this point. Code: 1. Detroit Lions- QB Brady Quinn, Notre Dame 2. Arizona Cardinals- OT Joe Thomas, Wisconsin 3. Oakland Raiders- WR Calvin Johnson, Georgia Tech 4. Houston Texans- HB Adrian Peterson, Oklahoma 5. Washington Redskins- DE Gaines Adams, Clemson 6. Cleveland Browns- CB Leon Hall, Michigan 7. Tampa Bay Bucs- DE Quentin Moses, Georgia 8. Tennessee Titans- S LaRon Landry, LSU 9.

I'll make my forth and final pick The Denver Broncos select the man-child who started playing college football when he was 16 Years old, and now as a 19 Year old Senior he's already 317 Pounds and his upsdie is enormous DT Amobi Okoye, Louisville
The San Diego Chargers select.....Buster Davis ILB...Florida St. I'm sure many have concerns over Buster's height, but this Kid just makes plays. Davis reminds me of Vilma at the U, he's all over the field. San Diego should be a good fit with their superb DL. Donnie Edwards is showing some age and Buster could be a starter in the near future.
If he falls to the second round, I would LOVE for the Jets to draft this kid. Him & Brian Leonard in the 2nd round would make my day
If Okoye fell to the Jets in RD 2 I would run that card to the podium like Carl Lewis, but its highly unlikely dwalsh .. I think Okoye has a better shot at cracking the TOP 20 {or better} than falling to RD 2
Baltimore Ravens select Michael Bush, RB out of Louisville. Sure hes coming out of college with a huge question mark of health, but he was considered the 2nd best RB heading into the year and is very dangerous. With aging Anderson being always a question mark and Jamal Lewis being well...Jamal Lewis this is an ideal pick for the offensive hungry Ravens.
PICK Jeff Samardzija to replace Muhammad (33 years old) in 2 years as their go-to possession receiver.
The Indianapolis Colts select OLB Earl Everett out of Florida. He may be one of the fastest 4-3 linebackers in the draft and will flourish in the Tampa 2 system, that sits him in a deep zone most of the time. They'll likely be letting go of Cato June, so they need to replace him.
