NFL Draft Challenge

As you may know, there is an NFL Draft Challenge.

I am going to write and see if I can win myself a ticket to see my Raiders play in Baltimore since I can't see my Raiders live due to money issues. 

Well, let’s look at this whole draft and at who, what ,and where will the players get drafted.

No one really knows, but I have a few thoughts on some of these players.

The No. 1 player that I think will most likely end up as a bust is Matt Ryan. There is way too much hype behind this signal caller.

I think he is going to be drafted higher than where he should go due to the fact that there really isn't any depth at this position this year.

Last year there was Brady Quinn and JaMarcus Russell fighting for the top spot. This year there is only one, Ryan. Due to him being the main guy, he will cash in and reap the rewards of doing so.

Let’s take a look at Darren McFadden.

He is a great player and could be something special, but I wouldn’t want my team to draft him.

I watched a report on him on ESPN and the guy is a high-risk, high-reward type of deal.

He has all the talent but his background is worse than Michael Vick's with his mother being a drug addict and his older brothers being gang members there is no way I would want him here in a Raiders uniform.

The guy is a beast on the field, but I don’t like what his past has to say about him.

What I think about him is that you can take the man out of the ghetto, but you can't take the ghetto out of the man. It’s a true statement. Look at Adam Jones and Vick.

The player I would love to see in a Raider uniform is Chris Long, son of former Raider Hall of Famer Howie Long.

He is a great player who would make an impact for the Raiders for years to come. Oakland needs another pass rusher that will be able to be a dominant force and Long could be the answer.
