I’m hoping to hit 15 out of 30 (the first two picks are a given).
I will bet my savings account on the under of this. TBL would you care to wager?
I have PayPal.

Too bad Young J didn’t take my proposed bet. Not even close.

If you really want a mock draft to be right, wouldn’t it look something like this?

1 – Luck
2 – Griffin
3 – Kalil
4 – Kalil
5 – Kalil
6 – Blackmon
7 – Blackmon
8 – Blackmon

etc etc… wouldn’t you have a pretty good shot to be the average 5 or whatever picks a person gets right if you just pick the guys who you know are in a range, and blanket them.

For giggles, I’ll go on record. This was may pretty haphazard. I relied more on traditional positional strength and value vs. needs:
1 Colts Luck
2 Redskins (From Rams) Griffin
3 Vikings Kalil
4 Browns Tannehill
5 Buccaneers Richardson
6 Rams (From Redskins) Blackmon
7 Jaguars Claiborne
8 Dolphins Cox
9 Panthers Floyd
10 Bills Gilmore
11 Chiefs Decastro
12 Seahawks Ingram
13 Cardinals Fleener
14 Cowboys Barron
15 Eagles Martin
16 Jets Upshaw
17 Bengals (From Raiders) Jenkins
18 Chargers Randle
19 Bears Reiff
20 Titans Kuechly
21 Bengals Adams
22 Browns (From Falcons) Hill
23 Lions Glenn
24 Steelers Kirkpatrick
25 Broncos Mercilus
26 Texans Jones
27 Patriots (From Saints) Coples
28 Packers Massie
29 Ravens Konz
30 49ers Martin
31 Patriots Brockers
32 Giants Wright

Wait, I was counting the 1st 2 as well. 17 is damn near impossible.

15 is tough. I feel pretty good about getting 10, maybe 12. But 1 trade and everything goes to crap.

Brawny, I could see the Floyd at #9. Looks like you have Jenkins off the 1st round, I bet the Bengals have him over Gilmore. We’ll see.

Dreesen left, so they only have Daniels and Garret Graham with Casey as starting FB
Yeah, Htown pointed that out. I’ll be taking a corner off of my fan card today as punishment.

This is the reason that it might be a good idea to take him. Especially since they’re no guaranteed money left on OD’s contract and he’d be a nice salary cap cut next year and Fleener could be plugged into his slot for a lot cheaper.

However, I’d be surprised if Smithiak drafts a TE this high. They typically don’t. I like Orson Charles but I wonder if they’ll shy away from him after getting popped for a DUI.

Granted I haven’t been following draft coverage much at all, but why the fuck would the Texans want another TE? We already have two in Dreessen and Daniels

I once sang Amish Paradise during karaoke last year. I got a mild reception at best. God forbid I tried to be different and not do the same old thing like Bon Jovi or Journey.

Humpty Dance – every time.

i brought the house down one night with At This Moment. the falsetto at the end was the killer app

Huge fat or huge muscular?

Muscular. His arms were the size of tree trunks. And he was covered in tattoos.

I would never spit on the car of a guy who is too big to fit in the back of a regular cop car.

Nor would I.

There is police tape right in front of the entrance to the building now. Mercedes is just sitting there with the driver’s door open. Guess the bike messenger’s about to get himself a nice car.

So this huge guy in a brand new Mercedes got cut off by a bike messenger right in front of my building and decided to body slam the bike messenger’s head into the ground after the messenger spit on his car. Bike messenger’s head was gushing blood. Cops showed up and arrested the Mercedes driver. He’s so huge they had to wait for an SUV to show up because he couldn’t fit in the back of the regular cop car.
