• Comment on This Mock Draft
1. Cinncinatti Bengals- Byron Leftwich, QB, Marshall Duh. Everyone with a brain knows they don't have a QB, and Byron's the best one out there.
2. Houston Texans- Jimmy Kennedy, DT, Penn St. Kind of a hard pick to figure. The defense isn't so bad over there, so who knows, but you gotta figure they can address the need at wideout in free agency or later on in the draft.
3. Carolina Panthers- Carson Palmer, QB, USC They have Rodney Peete. Enough said. Pick would be Eli Manning if he comes out, but he won't.
4. Detroit Lions- Jordan Gross, OT, Utah The line there is OLD. Plus, getting a Left Tackle to block for the 'Next Big Thing' Joey Harrington would make the most sense. Plus, If James Stewart stays healthy, they don't need a running back.
5. Chicago Bears- Dave Ragone, QB, Louisville They need a QB badly also, and personally, I think Ragone will be the best pro. He has one thing most others don't have: heart. Would still take Ragone over Palmer should Manning come out, and Palmer could be a dropper after this pick.
6. Minnesota Vikings- Charles Rogers, WR, Michigan St. Do you remember when Daunte Culpepper was good? Remember why? It was because of the running game and the two-headed recieving monster. Rogers would make it like that again.
7. Seattle Seahawks- William Joseph, DT, Miami (Fla.) Need run-stuffing? Find a DT. You would knee-jerk to Woolfolk or Newman, but they have Springs, and you hate to pay big bucks for 2 corners, unless you're positive they're worth it.
8. Dallas Cowboys- Andre Woolfolk, CB, Oklahoma Putting him in the same defensive backfield with former teammate Roy Williams is a no brainer.
