SeanMC: Ha! A Raider fan just selected DeSean Jackson for another team? Fantastic!
David W: No way Jackson goes here. No way.
SeanMC: Hey, I like DeSean.
David W: I like him too. But they won't take him.
Scott S: Love DeSean, just not to Carolina.
Pick No. 14, Chicago Bears. Picking for the Bears, John F.
The Pick: Jeff Otah, OT, Pittsburgh
John F: The Bears take Jeff Otah, OT, Pittsburgh.
Scott S: Back on track.
James C: Blocking = good.
Rob C: I like Otah.
SeanMC: You know, I wasn't overly impressed with any of the tackles outside Long this year.
Andrew K: Good pick. They can fight over Henne or Flacco later.
Rob C: The folks in Salt Lake are bringing a lawsuit against him to make him change the name though.
SeanMC: But the Bears either need a new running back or a new offensive line. So this is probably a good pick.
Kevan L: Someone else's back for Cedric Benson to run into.
Pick No. 15, Detroit Lions. Picking for the Lions, Kevan L.
The Pick: Rashard Mendenhall, RB, Illinois.
Kevan L: We were going to trade into the top 10 for DeSean Jackson...but...Detroit Lions select RB Rashard Mendenhall.
Scott S: Mendenhall is awesome.
David W: Mendenhall is a GREAT pick.
Andrew K: Man, this is going nothing like what my mock draft looks like.
Scott S: Andrew, you mean you didn't have Trevor Laws going at 9?
Rob C: Stewart from Oregon is better.
Kevan L: Stewart from Oregon is fragile.
John F: Ray Rice, no?
Pick No. 16, Arizona Cardinals. Picking for the Cards, James C.
The Pick: Antoine Cason, CB, Arizona
James C: With the 16th pick in the NFL Draft, the Arizona Cardinals select Arizona CB from Antoine Cason.
Cason's 3.5 ypa and solid tackling are more impressive than Rodgers-Cromartie—if it were Rodgers-Smith, he'd be going in the second round.
Rob C: Oh...you made a good pick...I didn't think of him. I agree about Cromartie.
SeanMC: I love Cason.
Scott S: Cason's a bit slow, but I still like the pick, with Martz and Saunders in the NFC West, the Cards need a CB.
Andrew K: What about Jenkins?
SeanMC: Jenkins is overrated.
David W: Jenkins is better than Cason, in my opinion.
Rob C: I agree, Jenkins is overrated. Cason is faster than his 40 time.
Scott S: 4.5 is what he ran at Combine.
David W: 40 doesn't mean everything. Really, it shouldn't mean much.
Rob C: Jerry Rice 4.58 at the combine
David W: LenDale White's 40 was AWFUL, but he's a pretty good back in the NFL.
Rob C: Yeah, when he's not acting like Cedric Benson.
