MOCK Draft 1/8/09

[Roy P]

This mock is ridiculous. I mock it. Like most mocks, it tries to consider the needs of the clubs. However, the BPA argument is totally lacking. Also, the player/system is not really considered.

While the Texans have usually surprised me on draft day, if they go after Tyson Jackson simply because he's a DE, that would be stupid.

The Hags had some serious OG issues, but they aren't drafting Duke Robinson in the top 10.

I could go on about Javon Ringer and numerous other examples, but I won't.

It is difficult to go through 7 rounds, especially this early.

If I were to cherry pick this for the Texans, I'm drafting Aaron Curry At #15. Derrick Brooks, Ernie Sims, and Lance Briggs are pretty important in their 4-3 defenses.

This mock doesn't have Taylor Mays, D.J. Moore, or Jeremy Maclin as an option.

At #47 I'd have to take Greg Hardy, and he's not on this mock either. Neither is Sen'Derrick Marks.

At #79, I suppose I'll have to take Brandon Spikes and make him the SAM.

#111, Shonn Greene anyone?

I'll let them update their mock with the declaring Juniors and then pay it some attention.
