1- What did you base the order on?

2- As a Bills fan I’m curious as to why you have them picking a guard. Derrick Dockery isn’t going anywhere, and Brad Butler is turning into a pretty solid OG. Honestly the weakest link on the Bills O-Line is center. So why a guard?

The order is taken from our early thoughts on how the season will shake out.

Duke Robinson is the best guard prospect to come out of college in the 10 years I’ve been doing this. He’d be an immediate impact over Butler, and potentially even Dockery.

Forget my Bears being worse, man this draft order sounds crazy:
1. Philadelphia Eagles (from Carolina Panthers) – Rey Maualuga, ILB, Southern California
2. Kansas City Chiefs – Victor Harris, CB, Virginia Tech
3. San Francisco 49ers – Brian Cushing, OLB, Southern California
4. Miami Dolphins – Michael Crabtree, WR, Texas Tech
5. Atlanta Falcons – DeMarcus Granger, DT, Oklahoma
6. Denver Broncos – Malcolm Jenkins, CB, Ohio State
7. Cincinnati Bengals – Taylor Mays, SS, Southern California
8. Chicago Bears – Curtis Painter, QB, Purdue
9. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Marlon Lucky, RB, Nebraska
10. Tennessee Titans – Fili Moala, DT, Southern California
11. Oakland Raiders – Michael Oher, OT, Ole Miss
12. Philadelphia Eagles – George Selvie, DE, South Florida
13. Pittsburgh Steelers – Andre Smith, OT, Alabama
14. Cleveland Browns – James Davis, RB, Clemson
15. New York Giants – James Laurinaitis, ILB, Ohio State
16. Green Bay Packers – Mike Mickens, CB, Cincinnati
17. Buffalo Bills – Duke Robinson, OG, Oklahoma
18. Jacksonville Jaguars – Joe Burnett, CB, Central Florida
19. Seattle Seahawks – Sen’Derrick Marks, DT, Auburn
20. Arizona Cardinals – Maurice Evans, DE, Penn State
21. Detroit Lions – Patrick Chung, SS, Oregon
22. New England Patriots – Al Woods, DT, Louisiana State
23. Houston Texans – Darrius Heyward-Bey, WR, Maryland
24. New Orleans Saints – Chase Coffman, TE, Missouri
25. Minnesota Vikings – Cullen Harper, QB, Clemson
26. New York Jets – William Moore, FS, Missouri
27. Baltimore Ravens – Alex Mack, C, California
28. St. Louis Rams – Eugene Monroe, OT, Virginia
29. San Diego Chargers – Alex Boone, OT, Ohio State
30. Washington Redskins – Jeremy Perry, G, Oregon
31. Indianapolis Colts – Trey Covington, DE, Maryland
32. Dallas Cowboys – Jeremy Maclin, WR, Missouri

I would love to see the rational and the projected records for each of these teams. That would be an entertaining read.

These are the posts I teams I meant to highlight:

20. Arizona Cardinals – Maurice Evans, DE, Penn State
21. Detroit Lions – Patrick Chung, SS, Oregon
22. New England Patriots – Al Woods, DT, Louisiana State
23. Houston Texans – Darrius Heyward-Bey, WR, Maryland
26. New York Jets – William Moore, FS, Missouri
27. Baltimore Ravens – Alex Mack, C, California
28. St. Louis Rams – Eugene Monroe, OT, Virginia
29. San Diego Chargers – Alex Boone, OT, Ohio State
30. Washington Redskins – Jeremy Perry, G, Oregon
31. Indianapolis Colts – Trey Covington, DE, Maryland
32. Dallas Cowboys – Jeremy Maclin, WR, Missouri

I would love to see the rational and the projected records for each of these teams. That would be an entertaining read.

In terms of needs or the players?

Probably a pre-season miscue. He should be on there.

I’ll wait for #23 on the others.

There are several players on here I don’t see going in the first round next year:

Lucky
Burnett
Evans
Chung
Monroe

btw, just posted my 09 mock draft. check it out and let me know what you think.

Is he a projected 3-4 OLB? If not it doesn’t make much sense considering they just drafted 2 DE’s and Dockett is under contract until 2010 or 2011.
