NFL Draft live thread
« on: April 23, 2009, 06:39:53 PM »
Yeah, it's early but I wanted to give everyone (who want's to) a chance to thow out their own mock draft ahead of the main event. Mine will go up later tonight after I eat, lol.

Good luck, have fun! Whoever gets the most picks right is, uhh, very lucky. Oh, and be sure to check back Sunday night for the "(insert your team here)'s going to the superbowl after all their great draft/free agent moves they made!" time as that's tons of fun every year.

FOOTBALL!!!!!!

I'd have liked Crabtree too but Mora is a D kind of guy. I should have guessed that in my mock, lol.

Browns are up, I wonder if they are going to trade with someone??

Sanchez will get lit up in the AFC East. I can't wait until Mr. Mexico is crying like a little bitch on the sidelines like his boyfriend Matt Leinart.

I have yet to hear what the Jets gave up for that pick. (??)

Just heard. 3 Jets players (including a starting CB) plus the 1st and 2nd pick in the draft wow.

Well my mock is blown but none of you bastards put one up so there's that. (I win, lol)  :tongue:

As to my Hawks not getting Crabtree, well, it's a pretty deep WR class and a good one will be there at #37.

Here comes my second favorite team (Cincy). They grab an OT, that's cool. I kind of hoped for DT BJ. Oh well, protecting Palmer is a big deal.

Too bad. I liked Crabtree, he's just fun to watch. But Oakland is where NFL careers go to die.  :uhsure:

I agree. GB is up next and they have plenty of good WR's.

I can't belive someone is not moving up in a trade to grab the Crab.
