Draft News and More!

Joshua CareyApr 20, 2008

I believe the pick that would most infuriate me would be the San Francisco 49ers selecting Lousville QB, Brian Brohm.

Rivals.com has the 49ers selecting Brohm with the 29th pick. If they do believe that, Alex Smith isn't going to work out, then they need to make a move to draft Joe Flacco.

Flacco is a big, strong-armed thrower that can make any throw of the field and has all of the physical tools that you look for including a big-time arm to air it out. The Niners can pick up Flacco in the second round and still be able to address the WR position in the first. To put it bluntly, their receivers were horrible last year.

They did pick up Isaac Bruce and Bryant Johnson, but neither wideout is a No. 1 option. DeSean Jackson from Cal should be the pick here. 

DeSean is arguably the most dynamic playmaker in this draft and can be a dangerous weapon on both offense as well as special teams.

Three-round mock draft:

1. Rd. 1 pick: DeSean Jackson(WR) Cal

2. Rd. 2 pick: Joe Flacco(QB) Delaware

3. Rd. 3 pick: John Sullivan(C) Notre Dame

Most awkward interview

Jason Taylor interviewing Virginia DE, Chris Long. Taylor, who wants to be traded before the draft, might end up being a draft-day trade and with that, the Dolphins draft his replacement.

Biggest bust in the ’08 draft

Miami (Fla.) DE, Calais Campbell. Projected pick first round, 17th pick (Vikings).

Campbell has average speed. He plays with his body high and with bad leverage. He's not an elite edge rusher like Long or Vernon Gholston. Campbell's sack production dipped off in '07 as well.

The Last player left in the green room: Oregon RB, Jonathan Stewart

Stewart is ranked No. 2 or 3 on the running back list and is an absolute workhorse, but he recently had toe surgery and this might deter GMs from drafting him where he deserves to be.

Players most interesting in following during the draft:

Trevor Laws(DE)-Notre Dame, Jonathan Stewart(RB)-Oregon, Tom Zbikowski(S)-Notre Dame, John Carlson(TE)-Notre Dame, Colt Brennan(QB)-Hawaii.

The first 5-players off the board will be:

  1. Miami Dolphins take - Jake Long(OT) - Michigan
  2. Chris Long(DE) - Virginia
  3. Glenn Dorsey(DT) - LSU
  4. Darren McFadden(RB) - Arkansas
  5. Ryan Clady(OT) - Boise State

Miami Dolphins sign Michigan Offensive Tackle: Jake Long

Minnesota Vikings give their 1st round pick and two 3rd rnd. picks for Chiefs DE: Jarred Allen

Seattle Seahawks released Running Back - Shaun Alexander. Look for the Patriots to sign him to complement their backfield.
