What do you think of my 2008 nfl mock draft?

1. Miami Dolphins - Chris Long DE, Virginia


- Parcells will want a player to start building his team around and Chris Long is the whole package. He's a hardworker, with a non-stop motor, who can get to the QB as well as stop the run.


2. St. Louis Rams - Glenn Dorsey DT, LSU


- Dorsey should fit into St. Louis like a glove. Move Adam Carricker back to his original position and you have a mean DL.


3. Atlanta Falcons - Jake Long OT, Michigan


- Atlanta could definitely use some OL help. Long would be a nice addition to a poor OL and should give the QB protection.


4. Oakland Raiders - Darren McFadden RB, Arkansas


- McFadden is just what Al Davis dreams of at night. Even though they resigned Fargas and have Rhodes, Jordan, and Bush, they still can't pass up a specimen like McFadden. Gholston could be a possibility.


5. Kansas City Chiefs - Jeff Otah OT, Pitt


- Does Kansas City reach for a much needed OT or do they take the best player available? I think that they have too much of a need for an OL to not take one. Otah is the pick.


6. New York Jets - Vernon Gholston DE, Ohio State


- The Jets filled most of their glaring needs in FA, so where do they go in the draft? While I would love for them to get McFadden, I just don't see him falling past Oakland. Vernon Gholston would add a lot more of a pass rush that Pace already gives. This could be a great addition for the Jets.


7. New England Patriots - Leodis McKelvin CB, Troy (Trade down)


- New England still needs help in the secondary, even with the signing of Fernando Bryant. However, I believe they will find a trading partner who wants Sedrick Ellis. If they can't trade out of the spot, I think they go with McKelvin.


8. Baltimore Ravens - Matt Ryan QB, BC


- What else could Baltimore possibly hope for than for Matt Ryan to fall into their laps? Perfect situation for the Ravens.


9. Cincinnati Bengals - Sedrick Ellis DT, USC


- Whether they trade up or stay where they are, I believe they will get Ellis. If not Ellis, then definitely Keith Rivers.


10. New Orleans Saints - Keith Rivers LB, USC


- The Saints don't really have too many glaring needs. They signed Randall Gay and have Mike McKenzie and Jason David. Why not grab the best LB available for the future?


11. Buffalo Bills - Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie CB, Tennessee State


- The Bills could take a WR here, but there isn't any WR really worth taking at 11. They could definitley add another CB, and why not one of the most athletic in the draft in DRC?


12. Denver Broncos - Ryan Clady OT, Boise St.


- It's pretty clear the Broncos need an OT, WR, and LB. I don't see them taking a WR this early and since Keith Rivers is gone, they go with Clady.


13. Carolina Panthers - Derrick Harvey DE, Florida


- The Panthers have a lot of needs. I could definitely see them taking Rashard Mendenhall, but they really need a DE and Harvey is a good one.


14. Chicago Bears - Chris Williams OT, Vanderbilt


- Oh the Chicago Bears. What is the deal with them? Resigning Rex Grossman? They are shot on WR after losing Berrian, need another QB, need a lot of OL help, and need secondary help. Chris Williams is still there and you need an OL after losing Fred Miller and Reuben Brown.


15. Detroit Lions - Rashard Mendenhall RB, Illinois


- While they could very well take Mike Jenkins or Aquib Talib, and do need to replace Damien Woody even though their are no more OL worth taking here, they did sign Dwight Smith and Brian Kelly, so why not take the best RB available?


16. Arizona Cardinals - Mike Jenkins CB, USF


- The signing of Travis Laboy fills the need at DE. They still need help in that secondary. Mike Jenkins was once considered the best CB in the draft. They luck out with this pick.


17. Minnesota Vikings - Phillip Merling DE, Clemson


- While Derrick Harvey could slip to the Vikings, I don't see it happening. The Vikes could be scared by the surgery Merling got to fix a sports hernia, but grab him anyway.


18. Houston Texans - Jonathan Stewart RB, Oregon


- I was so tempted to put Godser Cherilus here, but they are bone dry at RB. Ahman Green is getting older and Darius Walker isn't the answer. Stewart would be a great steal for the Texans here.


19. Philadelphia Eagles - Kenny Phillips S, Miami


- Even with the signing of Asante Samuel, they still need someone to put next to Brian Dawkins.


20. Tampa Bay Bucs - Desean Jackson WR, Cal


- I think it's pretty much obvious this pick will be used on a WR. The question is which one. I think Tampa looks at the speedy, game changing Desean Jackson and use his return ability to their advantage, something that has been missing in Tampa for a long time.


21. Washington Redskins - Malcolm Kelly WR, Oklahoma


- I can see Washington going for a DE here, but they still need to add a possession WR like Malcolm Kelly. They have Moss and Randle El, and Kelly would be the big WR. My other pick for the Skins would be Quentin Groves.


22. Dallas Cowboys - Aquib Talib CB, Kansas


- One of Dallas' glaring needs is CB. They lost Jaque Reeves to FA and Terrence Newman can't cover everyone. Good pick with Talib here.


23. Pittsburgh Steelers - Brenden Albert OG, Virginia


- This is probably one of the most unanimous picks in every mock draft. After losing Faneca to FA, the Steelers need a guard. Brandon Albert fits the bill perfectly.


24. Tennessee Titans - Limas Sweed WR, Texas


- How many people have to say the Titans need a WR before they actually draft one in the 1st round? Sweed falls right into their laps and have no choice but to draft him. My other choice is Jerod Mayo.


25. Seattle Seahawks - Devin Thomas WR, Michigan St.


- Not too many needs for the Seahawks. Why not add another WR to the mix? They could go TE here, but why not address it in the 2nd round.


26. Jacksonville Jaguars - Kentwan Balmer DT, UNC


- With the exiting of Marcus Stroud and Bobby McCray, they need a DL. The question is, which one? I believe they could go for Calais Campbell here, but take Balmer because after Balmer, the DT talent really drops off.


27. San Diego Chargers - Godsher Cherilus OT, BC


- San Diego is another team with no really glaring needs except for CB. San Diego always seems to throw a curveball of what everyone expects them to do. Godser Cherilus would shore up the OL after losing Shane Olivea.


28. Dallas Cowboys - Felix Jones RB, Arkansas


- With the loss of Julius Jones and the pick of Aquib Talib 6 picks ago, they add speedy Felix Jones to the RB mix.


29. San Francisco 49ers - Quentin Groves DE, Auburn


- While they did sign Justin Smith, they could still use a DE on the other side. Groves would add to the already nice pass rush of Smith and Manny Lawson.


30. Green Bay Packers - Reggie Smith CB, Oklahoma


- The Pack will groom this kid to play either safety or CB. My other choice here is Brandon Flowers.


31. New England Patriots - Pick Forfeited


32. New York Giants - Jerod Mayo LB, Tennessee


- After losing Kawika Mitchell, Reggie Torbor, and Gibril Wilson, they have some holes to fill. Mayo brings the combo of speed and athleticism. He is an absolute tackling machine. He's a great add to the Giants' LB core.

Man what are you people GRAMMAR POLICE. you act like you never copy or pasted anything before. This isn't a term paper morons.





I agree completely with your mock draft, but dont be suprised if ATL trades up for our pick just to get matt ryan and Dallas then trades with us to get Mcfadden. leaving us(DOLPHINS) with 2 late 1st round picks and 4 high 2nd round picks.
Reply:Looks good but Otah way to high you should adjust that.
Reply:i hope you didn't take time to write all of this...but it looks ok...every mock draft is similar with a few changes here or there...who would have ever thought ted ginn jr would go to miami last year 9th pick???
Reply:I dont agree with your Tennessees choice.
Reply:mmm, did the Colts lose thier first round?
Reply:I agree with the Packers 30th pick we do need a CB.
Reply:Once again, what has parcells done one month after he took the position in Miami. He let go about 4 Offensive linemen. The number one is going to Jake Long unless he can trade down.





Atlanta will get Ryan. This is obviously their greatest need and Ryan is arguably the only avaliable franchise QB.
Reply:god bless you for taking the time to write all this up or did you just copy and paste
Reply:Houston Texans - Jonathan Stewart RB, Oregon


Stewart is going to be a stud NFL RB. Looking back 10 years from now we'll wonder how he dropped so far in the draft.
Reply:The Ravens won't take Matt Ryan. Trust me, it's just going to be Miami and Brady Quinn last year. The Ravens have a lot of confidence in Troy Smith and have bigger needs at cornerback. Rodgers-Cromartie would be my guess.
Reply:wow seriously, for one i didnt read it and you shouldnt have typed it...i hope you copy and pasted





also, judging by the first few picks it was stolen directly from all the experts...lame!
Reply:ya i like all the cutting and pasting ya did. and no way jerod mayo falls to 32
Reply:I agree with the ravens needing Matt Ryan, but we are kinda trapped (financially) with the quarterbacks we have. Also, I have a feeling that Ryans stock is going to go up.
Reply:Everything looks really good. You got all of the team needs perfect.
Reply:not bad of a draft!!
