• Comment on This Mock Draft
1. Houston Texans - Charles Rogers, WR, Michigan St.
The Texans need help on defense, but there will be a lot of under 30 years of age free agents that they can turn to for that. Rogers is Randy Moss with heart which is a scary thing.
2. Minnesota - Andre Woolfolk, CB, Oklahoma
The Vikings have had one of the worst secondaries for some time now and I think its time for them to start correcting this problem. Woolfolk has that size speed combination that teams look for, and since he has played WR, his hands are good enough to make picks which would be a boost for their defense.
3. Cincinnati - Byron Leftwich, QB, Marshall
Everyone knows that Cincy needs a QB, so this pick is a no brainer. He's too gifted to pass up. He can make all the throws needed to be an NFL QB and his size will allow him to stand in the pocket and step up and make the passes that no Bangel has made since Boomer left town.
4. Tennessee - Roy Williams, WR, Texas
Their defense is giving way too many points, but they have some young guys with potential so I expect the defense to improve next year. With that said, I think they have to get a playmaker at WR to help McNair. He can get open; something the Titans' receivers have problems doing.
5. Detroit - Dennis Weathersby, CB, Oregan St.
Detroit has some good players in their front seven, but the same can't be said about their secondary. Team president Matt Millen wanted to go after Quentin Jammer last year but was overruled, which might save his job because I felt Harrington is and will be better than Carr. With their QB of the future in place he can start to fix that secondary.
6. St. Louis - Brett Williams, OT, Florida St.
This mock goes by what the team really needs and offensive line help should be their #1 priority. Their receivers are already established (don't forget their trade for Troy Edwards) and its obvious that Kurt Warner has no time to throw. Besides, it would help the running game also.
7. Seattle - Jimmy Kennedy, DT, Penn St.
This is close between Kennedy and Miami defensive tackle William Joseph, but I give the nod to Kennedy because of his size. From watching a couple of games this season he seems to be a better all around player. Seattle needs help to stop the run and to get younger at this position.
8. Dallas - Nathan Vasher, CB, Texas
This year they get the Longhorn corner that they couldn't get last year. They've needed help at the corners for some time now and Vasher will give it to them.
