Based on this, I'd trade down which won't be an option. I think Payton will take Mendenhall RB Illinois.

Don't agree? Looks at my avatar. It says it all!!!!!!!!!

Re: Mel Kiper's most recent mock draft!
 

I hear that we are targeting Balmer with the first pick,and the Jags really like him as well....maybe the two teams talk on draft day

Re: Mel Kiper's most recent mock draft!
 

The only corner I want is Cromartie.. After that they are several options at cb so no way in hell do I want the Saints to draft a corner first round unless its him.. Most def' get Rivers after him

Re: Mel Kiper's most recent mock draft!
 

I sure hope we do land McKelvin.

Re: Mel Kiper's most recent mock draft!
 

I like cromartie, but I don't see us getting him. I see the fo trying to trade down to gain more picks. I think we will get a corner on draft day, but it won't be the one most people on this board are hoping. I see us packaging a few picks and picking up shepard from the eagles on draft day, Just my prediction. I know its still a long ways away, and lots can happen, but thats just my gut feeling.

Re: Mel Kiper's most recent mock draft!
 

yeah the draft is still an eternity away!

Re: Mel Kiper's most recent mock draft!
 

We essentially have the best pick position in the draft. So many options that the really best one is to trade down, still get someone that is targeted and get extra picks.

I do not want a CB in the first round. Depending on how the first 5 picks go move up or TRADE BACK.

Re: Mel Kiper's most recent mock draft!
 

i AGREE 100% FIRST OPTION IS RIVERS SECOND WOULD BE CROMARTIE.

Re: Mel Kiper's most recent mock draft!
 

What if the dirty birds & chiefs whif on Ryan. If he's at 10 do you take him over BPA on defense? Just musing..
