This could play our smart, but there always are a few trades that may screw up more then one of your picks. Guessing these trades can be difficult. One wrong guess and even more of your picks are wrong. Obviously, as most people did, David chose JaMarcus Russell to go number one and Calvin Johnson to go two. As you can see by my mock draft, I believe The Buccs will either trade up to get Johnson or draft Joe Thomas, I can't see them looking at Gaines Adams unless a swap is worked out with Detroit. One pick that baffles me is Alan Branch at 6. At the beginning of the offseason, Branch was a major player in the draft, but as workouts and interviews went along, Branch's stock has near plummeted. Some scouts say he won't even fall in the first round. Having Peterson fall to 7 may not be too much of a reach. If the Vikings keep that pick, which they should, they have to take him. They can't let a playmaker like him slip through. As far as the rest goes, its pretty much anybodies guess. Most of his picks are highly possible. It will be interesting to see how things turn out come the start of the Draft tomarrow morning. Labels: Calvin Johnson, David Cornelius, JaMarcus Russell, Mock Draft, NFL, NFL Draft |
