You always have to talk smack about other's choices.... Here's a listing as of 3/6/03 of all of the picks so far: 1. Carson Palmer, QB, USC (Barnaby) 2. Charles Rogers, WR, MSU (Philly) 3. Jordan Gross, OT, Utah (Dirk) 4. Byron Leftwich, QB, Marshall (Steg) 5. Terrence Newman, CB, Kansas St. (Barnaby) 6. Terrell Suggs, DL, ASU (Tony) 7. Jimmy Kennedy, DT, Nittany Lions (Philly) 8. Andre Johnson, WR, Miami (pauli) 9. Marcus Trufant, CB Washington State (Jetdoc) 10. William Joseph, DT, Miami (Barnaby) 11. Dewayne Robertson, DT, Kentucky (Philly) 12. Kwame Harris, OT, Stanford (pauli) 13. Rex Grossman, QB Florida (Keypunk) 14. EJ Henderson, LB, Maryland (Dirk) 15. Boss Bailey, LB, Ohio St (Barnaby) 16. Andre Woolfolk, CB Oklahoma (Shaggy) 17. Rien Long, DT, Washington State (Jetdoc) 18. Eric Steinbach, OG/OT, Iowa (Jetdoc) 19. Kevin Williams, DT, Oklahoma State (Dirk) 20. Kyle Boller, QB, Univ. Of California (pauli) 21. George Foster, OT, Georgia (Barnaby) 22. Jerome McDougle, DE, Miami (Philly) 23. Jonathon Sullivan, DT, Georgia (Dirk) 24. Ty Warren, DT, Texas A & M (KJ 76) 25. Vince Wilfork, DT, Miami (Barnaby) 26. Michael Haynes, DE, Penn State (Philly) 27. Vince Manuwai, OL, Hawaii (Dirk) 28. Larry Johnson, RB, Penn State (Steg) 29. Dave Ragone, QB, Louisville (Barnaby) 30. Kenny Peterson, DE, Ohio State (Philly) 31. Jimmy Wilkerson, DE, Oklahoma (BW) 32. Gerald Hayes, LB, Pittsburgh (BW) 33. Terry Pierce, LB, Kansas State (Philly) 34. Onterrio Smith, RB, Oregon (Steg) 35. Lee Suggs, RB, Virginia Tech (BW) 36. Chris Kelsay, DE, Nebraska (Philly) 37. Justin Fargas, RB , USC (Tony_O) 38. Kelly Washington, WR, Tennessee (BW) 39. Taylor Jacobs, WR, Florida (Philly) 40. Jeff Faine, C, Notre Dame (BW) 41. ? ? ? First off, regarding my pick with the Panthers....Carolina is in desperate need of offensive help at every skilled position. Given that, I don't think that ANYONE available at this point is worth the 9th pick overall...Rogers/Palmer/Leftwich/Johnson would be their choices if they were available. Given that, Carolina has a very good defense, but if there was one weakness last year, it was their corner play. Trufant has the makings to be a stud cover corner in the NFL for years to come - if the four players listed above are gone in the draft (and Carolina can't trade up to get them or down to get another WR using a later pick), I guess they go CB here.

First of all, great move on the creation of a commentary thread, Jetdoc. This is definitely the way to go. I do want to say this, however, guys. I know originality is typically a boon in life. Posting picks during a message-board-hosted mock draft would NOT be one of those times, though. Point being... Let's keep those numbers before our picks! It makes it much easier to reference picks when you are scrolling down the page. If we don't all put the numbers, it can start getting confusing, especially the longer this gets. Thank you for your anticipated cooperation!

I took Kwame Harris here for the Rams because they have a glaring weakness at O-line. Pace will be there next year, but his future is in doubt with the Rams. The right tackle position was terrible last year with John St. Clair. Adam Timmerman is a free agent next year, and he will not be playing tackle this year, as previuosly rumored. Grant Williams and St. Clair wil battle it out for the starting job, but Harris could play either tackle position, and makes a fine insurance policy for the future, if the Rams can't sign Pace for a long term contract. The other tempting pick here was Boss Bailey, but a dominant big tackle like Harris doesn't come around often, and it fills the biggest need for the Rams. If he was available in this spot, I'd be ecstatic!

The Redskins need a WR and D Lineman. Remember, this is the team that wants to trade up to get Andre Johnson since they couldn't get Charles Rogers from the Lions. In addition, no way Rex Grossman goes this early. He did not seperate himself from the pack at the combine. He is one of 4 second tier guys. He will be LUCKY to go in the first round. But if he goes, he goes to the Packers later in the draft. With all that being said.................. It is actually a good idea to take him IF they picked later in the draft. Maybe the skins will trade down. |
| They're going to sign David Boston or Curtis Conway, therefore not needing a WR in the draft. All the D-Lineman they were looking to get, will be taken earlier. Rex Grossman WILL be taken with the 13th spot.

#20 Denver, Kyle Boller. Tough choice here, but I went out on a limb. Depending on what happens with Jake Plummer, Boller is a great fit for the Broncos. They need a pass rushing defensive lineman, and McDougle was available, but Boller apparently has moved up everybody's charts with a bullet, due to his performance in the Blue Gray game and at the combine in Indy. He's 6'4, 215 and ran a 4.6, has great arm strength, and wears #7. A possible franchise QB with this pick. John Elway, anyone? Adding him to the offensive mix with Portis and Lelie makes alot of sense for Shanahan.
