    What do you think of my Mock Draft!?
    Question:
    1. Oakland Raiders- Calvin Johnson, WR, Georgia Tech 2. Detroit Lions- Jamarcus Russell, QB, LSU 3. Cleveland Browns- Brady Quinn, QB, Notre Dame 4. Tampa Bay Buccaneers- Gaines Adams, DE, Clemson 5. Arizona Cardinals- Joe Thomas, OT, Wisconson 6. Washington Redskins- Amobi Okoye, DT, Louisville 7. Minnesota Vikings- Leon Hall, CB, Michigan 8. Atlanta Falcons (f/Hou)- Laron Landry, S, LSU 9. Miami Dolphins- Levi Brown, OT, Penn St. 10. Houston Texans (f/Atl) – Adrian Peterson, RB, Oklahoma 11. San Francisco 49ers- Alan Branch, DT, Michigan 12. Buffalo Bills- Patrick Willis, MLB, Ole Miss 13. St. Louis Rams- Jamaal Anderson, DE, Arkansas 14. Carolina Panthers- Greg Olsen, TE, Miami 15. Pittsburgh Steelers- Darrele Revis, CB, Pittsburgh 16. Green Bay Packers- Marshawn Lynch, RB, California 17. Jacksonville Jaguars- Adam Carekr, DE, Nebraska 18. Cincinnati Bengals- Lawrence Timmons, OLB, Florida St. 19. Tennessee Titans- Robert Meachem, WR, Tennessee 20. New York Giants- Joe staley, OT, Central Michigan 21. Denver Broncos- Jarvis Moss, DE, Florida 22. Dallas Cowboys- Aaron Ross, CB, Texas 23. Kansas City Chiefs- Dwayne Bowe, WR, LSU 24. New England Patriots- Paul Posluszny, OLB, Penn State 25. New York Jets- Justin Harrell, DT, Tennessee 26. Philadelphia Eagles- Michael Griffin, S, Texas 27. New Orleans Saints- Chris Houston, CB, Arkansas 28. New England Patriots (f/Sea) - Reggie Nelson, S, Florida 29. Baltimore Ravens- John Beason, OLB, Miami 30. San Diego Chargers- Ted Ginn Jr., WR, Ohio State 31. Chicago Bears- Dwayne Jarrett, WR, USC 32. Indianapolis Colts- Ben Grubbs, G, Auburn I picked Calvin to go #1 because Oakland's shopping arounde for a QB. It's pretty obvious that they want him, but the QB is pulling them. Also, they want to deal Moss, and Porter isn't very good, so they want him desperately. Justin ,I wouldn't be criticizing. You don't even know the draft order, so just shut up. The Browns are drafting at the 3rd position.

    Answer:
    Dude, i read your number 1 pick for the Raiders, and i stopped reading. Because the rest is obviously wrong. If you dont see the Raiders picking up a QB in the 1st round, especially Jamarcus Russell or Brady Quinn, then theres something wrong with you. The Raiders desperately need a QB than any other position. Why would they draft a WR when they dont have a good QB to throw the ball to him?????

    How does my mock draft 14.0 look for you team, any changes?
    Question:
    1/ Oakland Raiders JaMarcus Russell, QB, LSU 2/ Detroit Lions Calvin Johnson, WR, Georgia 3/ Cleveland Browns Brady Quinn, QB, Notre Dame 4/ Tampa Bay Buccaneers Gaines Adams, DE, Clemson 5/ Arizona Cardinals Joe Thomas, OT, Wisconsin 6/ Washington Redskins LaRon Landry, S, LSU 7/ Minnesota Vikings Adrian Peterson, RB, Oklahoma 8/ Atlanta Falcons (from Houston) Levi Brown, OT, Penn State 9/ Miami Dolphins Amobi Okoye, DT, Louisville 10/ Houston Texans (from Atlanta) Jamaal Anderson, DE, Arkansas 11/ San Francisco 49ers Adam Carriker, DE, Nebraska 12/ Buffalo Bills Patrick Willis, LB, Ole Miss 13/ St. Louis Rams Leon Hall, CB, Michigan 14/ Carolina Panthers Alan Branch, DT, Michigan 15/ Pittsburgh Steelers Paul Posluszny, LB, Penn State 16/ Green Bay Packers Marshawn Lynch, RB, California 17/ Jacksonville Jaguars Reggie Nelson, S, Florida 18/ Cincinnati Bengals Jon Beason, OLB, Miami 19/ Tennessee Titans Robert Meachem, WR, Tennessee 20/ New York Giants Chris Houston CB Arkansas 21/ Denver Broncos Lawrence Timmons, OLB, Florida State 22/ Dallas Cowboys Tedd Ginn Jr., Ohio State 23/ Kansas City Chiefs Ben Grubbs OG Auburn 24/ New England Patriots (from Seattle) Darrelle Revis, CB, Pittsburgh 25/ New York Jets Greg Olsen, TE, Miami 26/ Philadelphia Eagles Aaron Ross, CB, Texas 27/ New Orleans Saints LaMarr Woodley, LB, Michigan 28/ New England Patriots Brandon Meriweather, CB, Miami 29/ Baltimore Ravens Joe Staley, OT, Central Michigan 30/ San Diego Chargers Dwayne Bowe, WR, Louisiana State 31/ Chicago Bears Anthony Spencer, LB, Purdue 32/ Indianapolis Colts Justin Harrell DT Tennessee Thanks Rome, have any supporting material (link) that says they are looking that way?

    Answer:
    This looks good as a whole but there are a few things to take into consideration. 1. Pittsburgh has expressed a huge ammount of intrest in Darelle Revis and he will not slip to the Pats. 2. In that case Polouszny slips to the Bengals and Beason will go to the Patriots as their Linebackers are getting old. 3. Tampa loves Calvin way too much and I personall see them swapping picks with the Lions to insure they get him. Lions will then take Gaines Adams. 4. Joe Staley may go to the Chiefs if you see them taking a lineman, Joe Staley is my personal pick, but they really could use a #1 receiver. Meachum, Bowe, and Ginn all possiblities. 5. I dont know why but teams love to take TE's too ealry so the Pathers or Green Bay may reach for Greg Olsen. 6. The Eagles have no real needs and will go with the best player on the board. So good call there, although they may want to add stability to an injury prone line. *** Frayne its 3 wideouts in 5 years . . . Mike Williams, Roy Williams, and Charles Rogers. Harrington and Ernie Sims went somewhere in between.

    Question:
    NRA-ILA Grassroots Alert Vol. 13, No. 14 04/07/06 States with updates this issue: Arizona, Connecticut, Delaware, Idaho, Illinois, Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, New York, South Carolina, and Texas. RIGHT-TO-CARRY NOW LAW IN NEBRASKA! On April 5, Governor Dave Heineman (R) signed Legislative Bill 454 into law, making Right-to-Carry the law of the land in Nebraska! "It took over a decade to bring Right-to-Carry to the good citizens of Nebraska, but those years of hard work have paid off tremendously," declared NRA-ILA Executive Director Chris W. Cox. "I want to thank Governor Dave Heineman, and Senator Jeanne Combs (R-32), for their support and their efforts in giving Nebraskans the right to protect themselves and their loved ones. Senator Combs' dedication and persistence was vital in ensuring passage of this measure through the state legislature." LB 454 passed with bi-partisan support, as Nebraska senators voted 33-12 in favor of the measure. The bill allows law-abiding Nebraskans who undergo a background check and apply for a permit to carry a concealed firearm for self-protection. Two weeks ago, legislators in neighboring Kansas overrode Governor Sebelius' (D) veto to bring Right-to-Carry to that state as well. Now, of all the 50 states, only Wisconsin and Illinois flatly refuse to recognize the right of law-abiding citizens to carry concealed firearms for self-protection against criminal attack. "Once again, on behalf of our NRA members in Nebraska, I want to thank all the legislators who voted to bring Right-to-Carry to their state," concluded Cox. "And as always, we appreciate the commitment and participation of our members in Nebraska for their part in making it happen." To view this legislation use the "Bills" feature at the following link http://alisdb.legislature.state.al.us/acas/ACASLogin.asp GOV ERNOR RILEY SIGNS ALABAMA "CASTLE DOCTRINE" INTO LAW! On April 4, Alabama Governor Bob Riley (R) signed NRA-backed "Castle Doctrine" bill SB 283 into law. Senator Larry Means (D-10), and Representative Albert Hall (D-22), sponsored the self-defense bill. With overwhelming support, SB 283 passed the Alabama House by a vote of 82 to 9, and the Alabama State Senate by a vote of 30 to 2. ILA's Chris W. Cox, stated, "We thank Governor Riley for signing this vital legislation into law for the people of Alabama. Law-abiding citizens now have the choice to defend themselves and their families in the face of attack without fear of criminal prosecution and civil litigation." The "Castle Doctrine" bill removes the "duty to retreat" if an individual is attacked in his or her home, vehicle, place of business, or any other place he or she has a legal right to be. This legislation also states that victims may use necessary force to defend themselves against the attacker. "I would like to thank the bill's sponsors, Senator Means and Representative Hall, and the Alabama State Senators and State Representatives who supported this bill. As always, we also thank all the NRA members and lawful gun owners who contacted their representatives and urged them to support this vital self-defense measure," concluded Cox. SUPPORT HR 5092-- "THE BATFE MODERNIZATION AND REFORM ACT OF 2006" On April 5, the leaders of the House Judiciary Committee's Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism and Homeland Security--Representatives Howard Coble (R-N.C.), and Bobby Scott (D-Va.)--joined forces to introduce H.R. 5092, the "Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (BATFE) Modernization and Reform Act of 2006." This bipartisan bill is a critical first step toward finally reforming BATFE. First and foremost, H.R. 5092 totally revises the system of administrative penalties for licensed dealers, manufacturers and importers of firearms. Today, for most violations, BATFE can only give an FFL holder a warning, or totally revoke the license. This bill would allow fines or license suspensions for less serious violations, while allowing license revocation for the kind of serious violations that would block an investigation or put guns in the hands of criminals. H.R. 5092 also clarifies the standard for violations-allowing penalties for intentional, purposeful violations of the law, but not for simple paperwork mistakes. Congress thought it had fixed this problem in 1986 when it passed the Firearms Owners' Protection Act, but the government has ignored that law-and has even argued in court that the 1986 changes were "without practical significance." The bill also improves the process by which BATFE imposes these penalties, notably by allowing FFLs to appeal BATFE penalties to a neutral administrative law judge, rather than to an employee of BATFE itself. H.R. 5092 would change BATFE's enforcement operations in several ways, from requiring the Inspector General of the U.S. Department of Justice to review of BATFE gun show enforcement operations, to demanding that the Bureau establish clear investigative guidelines. Finally, the bill would focus BATFE's efforts on violations of firearms, explosives, arson, alcohol and tobacco laws, rather than non-jurisdictional areas. Please be sure to contact your U.S. Representative at (202) 225-3121, and urge him or her to cosponsor and support H.R. 5092, the "Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives Modernization and Reform Act of 2006!" SENATOR VITTER INTRODUCES S. 2599--THE SENATE VERSION OF THE "DISASTER RECOVERY PERSONAL PROTECTION ACT OF 2006" On April 7, U.S. Senator David Vitter (R-La.) introduced S. 2599--the Senate companion bill to H.R. 5013, the "Disaster Recovery Personal Protection Act of 2006" introduced on March 28, by U.S. Congressman Bobby Jindal (R-La.). This NRA-supported bill would amend federal emergency statute laws to prohibit local authorities from confiscating lawfully owned firearms during times of disaster. Thirty three states have "emergency powers" laws that give the government permission to suspend or limit gun sales, and to prohibit or restrict citizens from transporting or carrying firearms--something NRA-ILA is working to change. In some states, authorities can seize guns outright from citizens who have committed no crime--and who would then be defenseless against disorder. Please be sure to contact your U.S. Senators and your U.S. Representative, and urge them to cosponsor and support S. 2599, and H.R. 5013, respectively, the "Disaster Recovery Personal Protection Act of 2006!" You can reach your Senators at (202) 224-3121 and your Representative at (202) 225-3121. SUPPORT H.R. 5005, THE "FIREARMS CORRECTIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS ACT" Representative Lamar Smith (R-Tex.) recently introduced H.R. 5005, the "Firearms Corrections and Improvements Act," which would make a variety of technical changes to federal firearm laws. The bill would roll back unnecessary restrictions, correct errors, and codify longstanding congressional policies in the arena of firearms laws. Among its provisions, H.R. 5005 would: permanently ban taxes or "user fees" on background checks by the federal instant check system--fees that Congress has prohibited in annual appropriations riders since 1998; permanently ban creation of a centralized electronic index of dealers' records--a threat to gun owners' privacy that Congress has barred through appropriations riders for a decade; codify limits on disclosure of trace records--which Congress has already limited through a series of appropriations riders over the past few years, out of concern for gun owners' privacy and the confidentiality of law enforcement records; and repeal of obsolete language from the Brady Act's "interim" waiting period provisions, that expired in 1998. Please be sure to contact your U.S. Representative at (202) 225-3121, and urge him or her to cosponsor and support H.R. 5005, the "Firearms Corrections and Improvements Act!"

A LOOK AT THE STATES (***For all of the action items below, you can find contact information for your legislators by using the "Write Your Representatives" tool at www.NRAILA.org. As always, thank you for your support.***) States with updates this issue: Arizona, Connecticut, Delaware, Idaho, Illinois, Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, New York, South Carolina, and Texas. ARIZONA The Arizona Department of Game and Fish is hosting an area meeting to discuss locations for a new shooting range in Northern Arizona. Your presence is needed to help show support this new local shooting range. This meeting will be held Saturday, April 15, from 10:00 a.m., to 2:00 p.m., at the Northern Arizona University du Bois Center located at 306 E. Pine Knoll Drive, Flagstaff, 86011. Please mark you calendar for this date! For more information please contact: Mark Meyer at (480) 967-1343 or via e-mail at mmeyer@lsdaz.com. More meetings will be scheduled in the future, so please keep checking the NRA-ILA website for updates. After working closely with NRA leadership in Arizona, State Representative Pamela Gorman (R-6) has withdrawn her amendment, regarding state operated shooting ranges, from SB 1291. We here at NRA realize we have a strong ally in Representative Gorman, who will work to protect Arizona ranges and your Second Amendment rights. Please take a moment to send Representative Gorman a note thanking her for working with the NRA to resolve this issue and encourage her to continue to work with us to protect Arizona's gun owners and sportsmen. State Representative Gorman's e-mail address is pgorman@azleg.gov. CONNECTICUT As we have been reporting, the anti-gun crowd has redoubled their efforts to pass last year's proposal to make it a crime to fail to report the loss or theft of a firearm within 72 hours from when you "knew or should have known" of the theft. This year's version is outrageous! H.B. 5818, now includes language that would subject gun owners to criminal investigation and jeopardy of prosecution even if they report the theft because a court will now be given the ability to decide whether the firearm was stored in such a manner that provided "substantial and unjustifiable risk" that it would be stolen. Even worse, if the police recover the firearm before the gun owner has discovered it missing and made the report, it will be considered automatic evidence of guilt of violation of this proposed law, as well as guilt of an illegal transfer. Conviction of the "illegal transfer," which is a felony, would permanently end your right to own a firearm! In response to the large number of phone calls that are coming in from legitimate gun owners, Connecticut Against Gun Violence has put out desperate pleas to the anti-gun crowd asking them to write, e-mail and call lawmakers in an effort to drown out your voice! If you have not contacted your legislators yet, we urge you to do so today! The Public Safety and Security Committee could consider HB 5818 as early as next week. The Public Safety and Security Committee can be reached at (860) 240-0570. For more information on the Public Safety and Security Committee please visit www.cga.ct.gov/ps/. DELAWARE The Delaware House of Representatives may be voting as early as Tuesday on H.B. 359, sponsored by Representative Deborah Hudson (R-12), the NRA-backed "shall-issue" Right-to-Carry bill. This bill would allow law-abiding citizens that fulfilled the requirements for a concealed weapons permit to be granted a permit without discrimination. Your State Representative needs to hear from you! Please take the time to call or e-mail your State Representative TODAY and respectfully urge him or her to support HB 359 when it comes before them for consideration. The future of Right-to-Carry in Delaware depends on it! IDAHO Thanks to the efforts of NRA members across the State of Idaho who sent thousands of e-mails and made countless phone calls to State lawmakers, four important bills have become law in the state and a fifth is on the way. Senator Gerry Sweet (R-20) and Representative Bill Sali (R-21) co-sponsored three NRA-supported bills: House Bill 686 will protect non-profit shooting ranges and gun clubs from having taxes imposed on their range fees and membership dues; Senate Bill 1401, "Emergency Powers" legislation, will prevent government officials from imposing restrictions on the lawful possession, transfer, sale, transport, storage, display or use of firearms and ammunition during a disaster emergency; and Senate Bill 1428, "Right-to-Carry" reform legislation, that extends the concealed weapon license from four to five years and, like driver's licenses, requires renewal notices be sent out prior to license expiration. This bill also provides an exemption from the concealed weapon license requirement for a person who possesses a concealed weapon while on property he or she owns or leases. Senator Skip Brandt (R-8) proposed House Bill 608, legislation that creates an NRA motor vehicle license plate. This bill has also become law, so look to sign up for a special NRA license plate in the near future. The fifth bill, Senate Bill 1441, is "Castle Doctrine" legislation that would provide immunity from civil action for anyone who has used lawful force in self-defense. Under SB 1441, if a criminal attacks a victim and the victim successfully defends him or herself and, in the process, injures or kills the criminal, then neither the criminal nor the criminal's family can obtain a judgment against the victim for damages. This bill, carried by Senators Mel Richardson (R-32) and Joyce Broadsword (R-2), has passed both the Senate and House and is headed to the Governor's desk. ILLINOIS Thanks to the efforts of those who contacted their State Representative, H.B. 4853 passed the House with an NRA-supported amendment that excludes ammunition. The House concurred on this legislation with the Senate offered and NRA-supported amendment overwhelmingly by voting 115 to 1. Without this important amendment, H.B. 4853 as originally passed by the House could have been used to target ammunition manufacturers, distributors, users, and owners of property where firearms are lawfully discharged. This legislation will now head to the Governor's desk. LOUISIANA On Tuesday, the Senate Judiciary C Committee reported out S.B. 93, by Senator Joe McPherson (D-29), NRA-backed legislation amending the state's emergency powers act to prohibit the seizure and confiscation of legally possessed firearms in the unfortunate event of another natural disaster in the State of Louisiana. The full Senate could vote the bill on as early as Monday afternoon. Please e-mail and call your State Senators on Monday morning and urge them to support SB 93. Although an official agenda had not been posted as when this Alert went to print, it is expected the House Administration of Criminal Justice Committee may hold hearings on the House versions of measures to end New Orleans-style gun confiscations during a state of emergency: H.B. 36 by Representative Pete Schneider (R-90), H.B. 136 by Representative Troy Hebert (D-49), H.B. 172 by Representative Danny Martiny (R-79), and HB 760 by Representative Steve Scalise (R-82). Please email and call the members of the committee and urge them to support these measures. The committee normally meets on Wednesday and Thursday mornings in Room 6 of the State Capitol. To contact your state lawmakers, check the committee's schedule, and agenda, or for a list of committee members, please call the PULS line at (225) 342-2456 (from the Baton Rouge area) or (800) 256-3793 (outside the Baton Rouge area) or visit http://senate.legis.state.la.us/Senators, http://house.louisiana.gov, and http://www.legis.state.la.us MAINE Representative Josh Tardy (R-Newport) is offering an important amendment that adds two important provisions to L.D.1938, "An Act To Protect Victims of Domestic Violence." The "Tardy Amendment" would do the following: (1) Allow the court to order a person seeking a "protection from abuse" order--who is proven to be in "bad faith"--to pay damages and reasonable attorney's fees to the defendant and; (2) Makes law enforcement officials responsible for damage to firearms resulting from a lack of reasonable care, which are seized, surrendered or relinquished. Presently, the possibility of "bad faith" orders within the court system create a "shadow of doubt"--hurting the true victims of domestic violence. This measure would help eliminate "bad faith" orders from occurring, thus furthering validity for all legitimate "protection from abuse" proceedings. Furthermore, relinquished firearms are often damaged and sometimes never returned to the owner after a "protection from abuse" order is terminated. This amendment would correct that problem. Similar language recently passed the Pennsylvania Legislature and was supported by all stakeholders, including gun owners as well as domestic violence organizations. This measure passed overwhelmingly with bipartisan support. Please call your State Legislator today and respectfully ask him or her to support the "Tardy Amendment!" Your State Legislator can be contacted in Augusta at (800) 423-2900. MICHIGAN Governor Jennifer Granholm (D) signed two pro-gun bills, both sponsored by Representative Rick Jones (R-71). H.B. 4643 addresses a problem with concealed pistol licenses (CPL) being renewed in a timely fashion. Apparently, the Detroit area was taking 9 to 10 months to renew concealed pistol licenses! HB 4643 corrects the renewal process by requiring a proper renewal to be completed within 60 days or the license is extended for 180 days or until the permit is renewed. H.B. 4642 allows a licensed spouse to carry or transport another licensed spouse's inspected pistol. A thank you goes out to Governor Granholm for signing these two important Right-to-Carry reform bills into law. NEW YORK On April 9, members of the Assembly Health Committee are set to consider A. 6608A, sponsored by Assemblywoman Ginny Fields (D-5), an NRA-supported bill that would protect existing shooting ranges from new noise ordinances and nuisance lawsuits aimed at shutting them down. A. 6608A provides that facilities must comply with noise ordinances in place at the time of construction of the range. The Senate companion bill to A 6608A, S. 3353A, is sponsored by Senator Dale Volker (R-59) and could be voted on by the full Senate at any time. Please contact your lawmakers today and urge them to support A. 6606A and S. 3353A. The general phone number to the Senate is (518) 455-2800. The general phone number for the Assembly is (518) 455-4100. SOUTH CAROLINA Thanks to phone calls from NRA members H. 4681, introduced by Representative Mike Pitts (R-14), unanimously passed the House Judiciary Committee's Constitutional Laws Subcommittee with an added amendment that further strengthens the bill. H 4681 will now come before the full Judiciary Committee. This legislation would remove the ability of local governments to restrict the use, sale, or transportation of firearms during a state of emergency, and would also prohibit South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) from releasing the personal information of Right-to-Carry (RTC) permit holders unless the request for the information is part of an investigation by law enforcement. Please contact the members of the House Judiciary Committee and urge them to support H 4681. A list of the members of the Judiciary Committee can be found by going to www.scstatehouse.net/html-pages/housecommlst.html#jud TEXAS P rimary runoff elections will be held on Tuesday, April 11. Please check www.nrapvf.org to see whether a runoff election is being held in your area and to see how the candidates measure up on issues of importance to gun owners and sportsmen. Spread the word to your family, friends, and co-workers about the primary runoff elections, because every vote counts!

Marcus McCauley, CB F Aaron.. The Cowboys would take Aaron Ross thier because they are looking for a FS.. Aaron Ross is was CB in college but I think he will convert to FS in the NFL.. He would be a great tandem with Roy williams as safteys for the boys.. I can't see the Lions passing on Brady Quinn.. But you all may be right about Calvin Johnson going to Tampa Bay at 4

    Answer:
    I think you made a really good effort have to agree with a few folks that Calvin Johnson won't go lowere than 4, blockbuster trade Atlanta trades up to grab him at #2.

    Are you happy/satisfied with your team's selection in the NFL draft.? Do you agree with FanHouse comments.?
    Question:
    No. Team Player School Pos. 1. Raiders JaMarcus Russell LSU QB FanHouse: Could JaMarcus Russell could end up being the Sam Bowie to Calvin Johnson's Michael Jordan? 2. Lions Calvin Johnson Georgia Tech WR FanHouse: Millen has made so many mistakes, so often, that it's hard to believe he could have done the smart thing here. 3. Browns Joe Thomas Wisconsin OL FanHouse: We can't say for sure that Thomas won't be a bust. The only thing we can say with absolute certainty about Thomas is that he likes to fish. 4. Buccaneers Gaines Adams Clemson DE FanHouse: Adams is one of the "Pot Smoking Three," the three top prospects who admitted in their combine interviews that they had used marijuana. 5. Cardinals Levi Brown Penn State OT FanHouse: No one thought Brown would be chosen this high, but that doesn't mean he's a bad pick. 6. Redskins LaRon Landry LSU S FanHouse: The Sugar Bowl was billed as the battle between Russell and Brady Quinn. But Landry might just have a better career than either of them. 7. Vikings Adrian Peterson Oklahoma RB FanHouse: The Vikes think Tarvaris Jackson is better with a good running game than Brady Quinn would have been without a good running game. 8. Falcons (via Texans) Jamaal Anderson Arkansas DE FanHouse: When their star is accused of having a family involved in dog fighting, their pick, Jamaal Anderson, is a family man - but in a good way. 9. Dolphins Ted Ginn Jr. Ohio State WR FanHouse: This isn't a surprise, it's a shock. Everyone thought that if Brady Quinn were still on the board, the Dolphins would take him. 10. Texans (via Falcons) Amobi Okoye Louisville DT FanHouse: The best thing about taking the 19-year-old Okoye? You know he won't be getting into trouble at strip clubs because isn't old enough to get in. 11. 49ers Patrick Willis Mississippi LB FanHouse: Patrick Willis is a good athlete, a powerful hitter and very quick at covering five to ten yards. 12. Bills Marshawn Lynch California RB FanHouse: Everyone thought Lynch would play in Green Bay, but Marv Levy figured he needed a replacement for Willis McGahee. 13. Rams Adam Carriker Nebraska DE FanHouse: He played QB in high school, and his dad says he can throw for 80 yards. Of course, they also went 0-9, so he was probably wise to switch. 14. Jets (via Panthers) Darrelle Revis Pittsburgh CB FanHouse: There was talk that the Steelers wanted to take the hometown guy Revis, and it's clear the Jets were thinking that when they traded up. 15. Steelers Lawrence Timmons Florida State LB FanHouse: He was only a starter at Florida State for one season before he left early. He didn't run as well at the combine as he should have. 16. Packers Justin Harrell Tennessee DT FanHouse: The pluses of Harrell are incredible strength and toughness. The minuses start with the fact that he can't rush the quarterback to save his life. 17. Broncos (via Jaguars) Jarvis Moss Florida DE FanHouse: It's not shocking Moss is a first rounder, but it is surprising Denver traded up. Moss is good, but he might have been available at the 21st pick. 18. Bengals Leon Hall Michigan CB FanHouse: If you're a Cincinnati fan, you've got to be quite pleased that Hall was still on the board: He wasn't around this late in any mock drafts I saw. 19. Titans Michael Griffin Texas S FanHouse: Griffin is a good athlete who is the best special teams player in the draft. He's a hitter, and he's versatile enough to play safety and cornerback. 20. Giants Aaron Ross Texas CB FanHouse: The Giants are in serious need of a cornerback because they're so old in the secondary. 21. Jaguars (via Broncos) Reggie Nelson Florida S FanHouse: I think he's going to be a very good NFL player, and I love the fact that the Jaguars traded down and still got him. 22. Browns (via Cowboys) Brady Quinn Notre Dame QB FanHouse: If you're a Browns fan, you have to be happy that you got Thomas and Quinn. I don't know of too many mock drafts that had that scenario. 23. Chiefs Dwayne Bowe LSU WR FanHouse: Bowe, according to one person whose opinion I respect, is a big part of the reason that Russell is perceived as a potentially great quarterback. 24. Patriots (via Seahawks) Brandon Meriweather Miami S FanHouse: This is higher than most thought Meriweather would go, but maybe Bill Belichick loves players who stomp on their opponents or something. 25. Panthers (via Jets) Jon Beason Miami LB FanHouse: Beason is a good player, but he lasted this long because he's on the small side and had a bad 40-yard dash time. 26. Cowboys (via Eagles) Anthony Spencer Purdue DE FanHouse: It's not hard to understand what Jones was thinking here, where he'll be a very nice fit for Wade Phillips' defense. 27. Saints Robert Meachem Tennessee WR FanHouse: Meachem probably has the most complete package of size and speed in this draft of any receiver not named Calvin Johnson. 28. 49ers (via Patriots) Joe Staley Central Michigan OT FanHouse: Staley doesn't seem to be ready to start right away. Is it really a good idea to trade your 2008 first-rounder for a developing player? 29. Ravens Ben Grubbs Auburn G FanHouse: Grubbs is, by far, the best guard in this year's draft. The Ravens can count on Grubbs to start immediately. 30. Chargers Craig Davis LSU WR FanHouse: Craig Davis was not perceived as a first-round pick, but he's a solid player who can contribute immediately on offense and special teams. 31. Bears Greg Olsen Miami TE FanHouse: Olsen rocketed up after a blistering 40-yard dash time at the combine. I'm leary of high ratings based on something done in shorts. 32. Colts Anthony Gonzalez Ohio State WR FanHouse: Bill Polian loves wide receivers, the team has already lost Brandon Stokley, and Gonzalez is a smart player with good character.

    Answer:
    I think the Vikes did very well in the first round. Peterson could be an excellent addition to an offensive which struggled last year. The Vikes defense will probably be about the same, so having a good running game will be paramount to the teams success. We already have a great offensive line, a power running back in Taylor and a quality fullback in Richardson. Peterson's speed and big play ability could make him a great pick. Now we need some receivers that can catch the damn ball and some corners that can play in coverage.

    Why is West Virginia #2?

    can someone PLEASE fire TED THOMPSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?
    Question:
    Why does someone pass on greg olsen when bubba franks is so old. Why does one pass on jarvis moss when he could be the next KGB Why does one pass on brady quinn, and when the 2 and 3 rounds came pick a RB out of Nebraska and pass on michael Bush, and Garret Wolf (future MVP). Why does one pick a DT when one has Cullen Jenkins, probably the most underrated lineman in the NFL, KGB, Aaron Kampman and Ryan Pickett. Why does one pass on Chris Leak and Jared Zabranski and pick up TWO MOFO LB'S WHEN YOU HAVE ABDUL HODGE A.J. HAWK NICK BARNETT BEN TAYLOR BRADY POPPINGA Why does one pass on the FB out of Rutgers when one only has Vonte Leach. And most of all how come one passes on a safety until the third round when one has injury prone SS #1 and old washed up never was SS#2 WTF!!!!!!!! I know harrell is probably good I'm not questioning his playing ability I'm just questioning the fact that we could have picked a better player or get a trade in that spot. If he only played 3 games all year last year i think he still would have been around in the second round. You know what james why do we need to use two of our three sixth round picks on LB's who aren't going to start or have an impact after we have so much depth already. The main thing in my mind the pack need was 1.RB/FB 2.DB 3.DL I just thought alot of teams would have been wanting to pick up Brady Quinn (as in the Browns), and we could have been sitting pretty next year with two first round picks possibly, how huge would that have been.

    Answer:
    The biggest screw-up in my mind was not taking Brian Leonard, the FB/RB from Rutgers. Leonard can play fullback and be a power running back like Larry Johnson. Since the Pack have essentially no RB or FB, picking a guy who plays both very well makes sense to me. Not picking him makes little sense. As for taking Justin Harrell, I say so be it. Harrell is a good player. Maybe he is not the best for who the Pack could have used, but he will help out. Look at it this way: the Pack will finally have a good D. Think. Barnett in the middle. AJ Hawk on the left. Harrell and Jenkins in the middle of the line, sided by KGB and Kampmann. Two good corners. Why they didn't take a safety earlier also surprises me. With all the trading around that Thmpson did, I am surprised that he did not trade back about 5-10 spots in the first round, pick up an extra late second rounder, draft Greg Olsen, draft a safety and either a receiver or D-lineman with the second round picks, and try to trade up for a third second-round pick to take Brian Leonard. Before the draft I thought highly of Ted Thompson. It is hard to rebuild through the draft, yet last year he earned five more wins than the previous year by drafting shrewdly. But this year he seems nuts. He did not keep Green around. Obviously he is getting old and didn't desevre the contract he got in Houston, but Thompson should have signed him if he did not intend to draft/sign/ trade for a replacement. I also expected him to use the early picks (first and second round) to draft a weapon for Brett Favre and a safety to stop the deep ball, but he did neither. Thompson really surprised me this offseason. In fact, I think the only GM who has had a worse off-season is Jerry Reese of the Giants (cutting all their guys, signing NO ONE, and drafting poorly). And whats-his-face with the Colts hasn't done great either (losing so many guys due to cap constraints and then not drafting to replace departed players.) Anyway, I think that Thompson will stick around, but don't count on him being here for the 2008 offseason if the Pack lose 12 games because of the deep ball and lack of running game, and don't count on a 2009 offseason with Ted Thompson if the Pack have another catastrophe like this next year.

Florida State 1993--Charlie Ward was magical 6. Nebraska 1994--Pretty much same squad as Nebraska 1995, just a little younger. 7. Ohio State 2002--gritty squad. Pretty much the Miami 2001 team (most of the same players) 8. LSU 2003--Great D plus Joseph Addai 9. Michigan 1997--Woodson and an underrated Tom Brady 10. Florida State 1999 11. 2000 Oklahoma 12. Florida 2006 13. Tennessee 13-0--Team was loaded with lots of future NFL pros, but the team really didn't shut teams down like some of the other squads. 14. LSU 2007 12-2 15. Florida 1996 16.

    Answer:
    Even though I'm a girl and everybody probably thinks no girls are into football. I think those results are pretty much right.

    Who will QB the Pats? Donte Stallworth or Wes Welker?
    Question:
    “Well, Bill Belichick actually brought me in his office earlier (yesterday) morning and asked me if I wanted to move to quarterback, and we’re going to put in a whole new offense,” Stallworth cracked. “He wants me to run the option. We brought in the coach from Nebraska, Tom Osborne, so I’ve met with him and we have the option going. Tom’s going to go ahead and let me take the reins for this game.” However, when asked his thoughts about Stallworth playing quarterback, Welker disputed the call. “Well, actually, coach pulled me into the office and told me I was going to be the quarterback, so I don’t know where he’s hearing that from,” Welker shot back. “I think he kind of overheard our conversation, and that’s actually going to be my role.” The players, while toeing the company line, do seem to be having fun with the whole Brady injury saga. Boston Herald

    Answer:
    That was hliarious.... I'm glad to see them having fun with it :) being loose and able to joke like that, tells you how focused they are.. go Patriots 18-0 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
