Ongoing 2007 Mock Draft Thread

[Rome]

McShay still has the Birds taking Michael Griffin from Tay-hass:

26. Philadelphia (10-6)

Projected pick: Michael Griffin, S, Texas

Needs: ILB, S, CB, DE, RB, WR, QB

The Eagles have a more pressing need at inside linebacker but there's simply not a player of value available here. Griffin brings experience and versatility to the table after notching 250 tackles during his last two seasons at Texas.

I have to say that works more for me than Leonard at 26.  Now, if the Eagles traded down into the second and picked up a couple extra mid round picks...

griffin is one of the nine players

I really like Griffin, he hits like a freight train, and is pretty good in coverage.  With coaching he'll be much better in the coverage department.

I find drafting Brian Leonard in the first round to be absolutely PREPOSTEROUS!     


seriously.  I must not know something that everyone else does.

I must not know something that everyone else does.   

Leonard is a cyborg. A white cyborg, but a cyborg none the less.

Is he related to Zdeno Chara?

[Rome]

Drafting Jon Harris in the first round was preposterous.  Mixing broccoli and mashed potatoes together is preposterous.  Expecting Jessica Alba to perform fellatio on you and then swallow your protein shake is preposterous.

Drafting an early second round talent late in the first round if no one else is there to help you immediately is not.

[MURP]

The Eagles dont run the ball.  Drafting Leonard wouldnt change that.   This guy isnt Reggie Bush.   Taking a backup RB to run out in the flats and catch some passes while your defense needs serious help is preposterous.

[rjs246]

We're all basically saying and have been saying the same thing. Leonard would fit perfectly onto this team. Reaching for him in the first round while this team has so many other needs borders on the retarded.

[ice grillin you]

not to mention leonard is a tweener....hes a solid player but if im taking a tweener in round one it isnt gonna be a rb/fb its gonna be demarcus ware

[rjs246]

Right. And while a tweener of his kind would be a nice addition, it is clearly not a priority.

[Seabiscuit36]

They would have gotten with a first a few years back if they had not traded for mcdougle.  All i know is I like Leonard but he's not a first rounder. 

[Rome]

I got all your tweeners right here.

Draft Leonard!  TRADE UP TO GET HIM IN FACT!

Bazoinks!

[Drunkmasterflex]

Love Leonard in the second round, hate him in the first.  D must be addressed in the first round.
