** The OFFICIAL NFL Mock Draft Thread **

[mmbt0ne]

CJ's an obvious choice for DET. They probably won't keep him and will get something extra and a lower salary to go along with the guy they wanted in a trade.

[Huh?]

when does Oak go on the clock? is it actually at 11am et or is that just when the draft coverage on espn begins?

[mmbt0ne]

Noon I believe.

Good list. However, I dont see both Thomas and Peterson sliding past the Bucs at pic 4 unless there is a trade w/ Det for CJ. Also, from what I hear Leon Hall will be taken before Buffalo at 12. Either way looking foward to tomorrow. They have been previewing the draft for so long.. anxious to see what happens.

You really think the Bucs are going to use another top 5 pick on a RB after drafting Cadillac 2 years ago? I just can't see them doing that. Cadillac was awful last year but their O-line was hurt and they didn't have a real starting QB. Drafting Peterson would be stupid with all their holes on their O-line and their aged Defensive Unit.

Ya you're right I think Thomas will be the pick there if they can't somehow get Johnson.

Re: Time...

Coverage starts at 11 EST. Oakland on the clock at noon. Just what I need, another hour of torture.

If I were a drinker, I would drink every time Mel Kiper says "hot" and "talkin about a guy." I'd be drunk by Oakland's pick.

[chalk7]

anyone else see kiper's final mock? he has david harris going #12 overall to the bills after sf takes willis. i haven't seen harris projected anywhere near #12.

Link? I don't have ESPN insider. Harris seems to be rising but 12? I would think Buffalo's draft board would look something like:
1.Adrian Peterson
2.Patrick Willis
3.Leon Hall
4.Amobi Okoye
5.Marshawn Lynch
6.Alan Branch
7.Darelle Revis
8.Paul Posluszny

At least 3 or 4 of those guys should still be on the board at #12.

[Tyler Durden]

My top six picks:

1. Oakland -- JaMarcus Russell
2. Detroit -- Calvin Johnson
3. Cleveland -- Joe Thomas
4. Tampa Bay -- Gaines Adams
5. Arizona -- Amobi Okoye
6. Washington -- LaRon Landry
