Here it is! My first mock draft for the year. OK, let me have it!

1. Kyle Wilson CB Boise State
2. Linval Joseph NT East Carolina
3. Matt Tennant C Boston College
4. Anthony Dixon RB Mississippi State
5a. Joe Webb WR UAB
5b. Clifton Geathers DE South Carolina
5c. Brandon Sharpe OLB Texas Tech
5d. Robert Johnson FS Utah
6. Micah Johnson ILB Kentucky
7a. Scott Sicko TE New Hampshire
7b. Brett Swenson K Michigan State

This draft is in hoping that Sweed and Urbick step forward this year.

I like your mock...there are some guys that you have there that I will include in mine.....I like the way you're thinking on some of the picks....it's similar to my train of thoughts...

like the draft but dont know of Robert Johnson FS Utah or Scott Sicko TE New Hampshire
will have to read up some more now.. nice work

I had some core players that I liked a lot and then had to fill the holes with others like Robert Johnson and Sicko (I like the name ) that I don't know much about either. Sicko could be replaced by Nate Byham of Pitt if we wanna go with a blocking TE.

Thanks for the comments so far. Keep 'em coming!

Lol, people just like to look.

I think it is a great draft, and only one thing I would really change if it was mine.

I don't really like Linval Joseph in the second, but I could see us taking maybe Cam Thomas or Torrell Troup.

Other then that it would be a solid draft and I like the Scott Sicko pick, besides who says the guy can't learn how to block well. I remember I had him as my 7th rounder in my first mock. I also had Taylor Price as a 5th rounder, but that won't be happening anymore.

Nice job!!!

I like picks 1..4...5a...5b..5d...6 and 7a alot. Sicko is a nice sleeper pick that I had talked about a couple of weeks ago...He was the leading reciever for New Hampshire even though he was at one point thought to be a blocking TE. I think he had like 700+ yards and 9 TD's last year. Also ran like a 4.53 Forty at his pro-day.

I think Joseph is just a little overrated at this point..but might end up being an ok player...Swenson would be a good pick if Reed hadnt came back..

LLT, I had Sicko on mine back in December, I just kind of stopped posting on the forums because I'm in college now and have a weekend job .

I just got sidetracked, but since we are so close to the draft I am back

I actually would prefer Torrell Troup at NT but I was having problems fitting all of the players I liked into the rounds that they were projected at.

I threw Swenson in there at the end because even though Reed signed his tender, they haven't signed him to a long term contract.

im hoping we pick wilson or haden because i think there going to both be stars at the next level. i was previously thinking we would ignore our DBproblem and adress the line but we seem to be leaning the otherway now. i still think we may take jared odrick if he is still there but we will probably end up with wilson.
