Man, that's a lot of "swing for the fence" picks. That would be a pretty exciting/terrifying and probably frustrating draft class, don't you think?

[painekiller]

Using the trade down with Philly thread as as guide, I go

28 RB Donald Brown Connecticut
46 LB Connor Barwin Cincinnati
53 OC Eric Wood Louisville
77 DE Lawrence Sidbury Richmond
112 LB Zack Follett California
122 CB Gregory Toler St.Paul Virginia
152 S Brandon Underwood Cincinnati
188 RB Javarris Williams Tennessee St
223 WR Johnny Knox Abilene Christian

It's not the kind of draft I would want, but Casserly might.

15 RB Chris Wells Ohio St
46 DE Michael Johnson Georgia Tech
******************************************
Are you serious ? A running back in the first round ? Gimme a break ?
And how does MJ make it to the middle of the second-round in spite of the knocks on his lack of hustle, non-existant motor, whatever ? Can't imagine him lasting until 46 ?
Honestly I'm not trying to be a wise-azz about your site P-K, but those 2 picks leave me with a less than positive impression of your site. Is it their trademark to make picks way outside of the realm of conventional thinking ?
And I'm not against controversial picks if they seem realistic.
BTW, what are you guys doing up at 3 in the morning on Tuesday ?

Man, I know this is a computer mock, but I pretty much toss aside any mock that has us taking RB at #15. It's just so far-fetched from Kubiak's philosophy and history that there's no basis whatsoever for even considering they'd go RB. They were much worse off last year at RB and still chose not to take a one in Rd1 or Rd2. They also passed on the GREATEST RB to ever touch the gridiron (LOL) for a somewhat unknown, high-risk/high-reward DE out of NC State. If that doesn't tell you the odds of the Texans drafting a RB are about as low as a bottomless pit, I don't know what will. I won't say never, and yes I could see them taking RB if they traded down late in the first round for multiple picks, but I'm pretty confident in saying the Texans would take any other position or trade down for a pick and a ham sandwich before taking Beanie Wells @ #15.

Like most computer mocks it is about team needs. They almost never get into team specific draft patterns because that just adds to many variables for most programmers.

So in the national guys eyes, RB is a huge need and Wells is stud, not my opinion. And Johnson is dropping, some stupid GM/HC will take him sooner then #46, but the scouts have soured on the guy.

Most computer mocks are flawed and this one is no different. The usefulness of the mock is to forcast a range in which a player will be drafted. Wells may not likely be the 15th pick in the draft, but he is likely to be picked somewhere between 12 and 22. This gives us amateurs an idea of when to expect the players that we want will be coming off the board. I don't read anything more into a mock than that.

188 RB Javarris Williams Tennessee St

Here's mine
28. RB Donald Brown Connecticut
46. OC Eric Wood Louisville
53. FS William Moore Missouri
77. DE Lawrence Sidbury Richmond
112. FS David Bruton Notre Dame
122. DE Kyle Moore USC
152. QB Stephen McGee Texas A&M
188. RB Javarris Williams Tenn State
223. CB Don Carey Norfolk State

I thought about passing on Javarris Williams since I drafted Brown in the 1st round and selecting AQ Shipley. However, since I drafted Wood, I went ahead and took my short yardage specialist.

At 152, I thought that Chris Clemons would be a good pick, but since Moore and Bruton were S's that I already had, I took my QB to groom.

If I knew Clemons would have been there, I might have cherry-picked WR Demetrius Byrd at #112. It was sad that my LBs were off the board there.
