Yea this thing is really moving along now. If it had gone like this all along we could have knocked out a 3rd round too, but that's just wishful thinking.

This is for 3 rounds.

Or did we change it to 2 when it wasn't moving quickly?

It was originally for 3 rounds, but because of the lack of participation by some members it was changed to only 2 rounds.

With the 57th pick the Baltimore Ravens select Juaquin Iglesias, WR Oklahoma.



The Ravens need a WR or two pretty bad. Juaquin is the most solid out of the group left. I thought about going someone else here, but I think he may drop into the 3rd round.

We should go 3 rounds if this keeps moving smoothly.

I say change it back to 3 rds.

Damn. I was looking forward to 3 rounds.

Why? There is no point. We had at least 5 people miss their 1st round pick and probably about 10 miss their 2nd round pick. And that's just a rough estimation it's probably more than that. This mock was supposed to take a week or two, but it's gone on for at least 2 weeks and we're only in the 2nd round.

For those of us that enjoy doing the mock's this one was a real letdown. I would love to do 3 rounds, but it's too hard to accomplish when half the members never show up to make a pick or participate.

I believe we are doing a post-combine mock in a week or so, but it is by invitation only. The people that have been active in this mock will be in it, but for those members who joined up and never participated, they will not be included.

So if you enjoyed this mock and have participated you will probably be invited for the next one, but for those people who signed up and only posted once or twice on the entire 27+ page thread, they will not be invited back.

I hear yall, but it is alot of extra work and time for me when we have so many people not participating.

The combine starts in 2 days. We can finish up the 2nd round here (7 picks left) and then focus on the combine. Then we can do a post combine 3 or more round mock.

If someone really wants to finish moderating the 3rd round have at it.

No thanks.

We won't even have finished the second round by the time the combine comes along.

We can finish this one in two rounds and then do a three round mock post-combine.

[Honoring Earl 34]

I have/had two picks in the 3rd round and y'all just stole my thunder . I'm going to resign Favre , that'll show you .

[Blake]

"Tex Fans,

I'm headed to Kuwait tommorrow and will be in Baghdad for 6+ months. I've been finishing up some Army training and missed my last pick. I'll probably miss the next one also, but here is my priority order if available...

Paul Kruger DE Utah
William Moore S Missouri
Sen'Derrick Marks DT Auburn
Shonn Greene RB Iowa
Andy Levitre OG Oregon St.

If none available, mods pls have someone pick for me.

Mark"



The New England Patriots Select: William Moore, S, Missouri

Lol.

Actually Graham Gano will warant a high pick come draft day. Was only a kicker for this year but won the Lou Groza award.

He was 24-26 this year. Only 2 he missed were over 50 yards, but he was 5 of 7 on over 50 yard field goals.

He has a boot, let me tell you, this guy can kick.

It is very interesting how far William Moore has slipped out of the first round in the eyes of the people doing this mock.

[Shaft75]

With the 59th pick in the 2009 NFL draft, the Carolina Panthers select:



Robert Ayers DE Tennessee

This immediately fills the vacancy that was left when Julius Peppers signed with the Houston Texans. Plug him in and play on!

[DiehardChris]

Ayers is an absolute STEAL here. No way he lasts anywhere near this long when the real draft comes. Not gonna be a sack machine, but I think he'll be a really solid DE, who will stuff the run and get to the QB once in a while.

I was thinking about taking him as a 3-4 DE for the Ravens @ 57, but I didn't like the fit. He is a good player, that is great value here I agree.

We can finish this one in two rounds and then do a three round mock post-combine.

Good point
