2009 Member Mock (Second) Rounds 4-7

[Shaft75]

With the 118th pick in the 2009 NFL Draft, The Houston Texans select:

Kevin Barnes, CB, Maryland

[Shaft75]

It was between Barnes, Martin, and Munnerlyn for this pick. I also looked at Peerman and Ringer. I didn't like Peerman's fumblitis and I don't think Ringer fits the system, but is a good rb.

For me it was between Barnes and Martin. I didn't like Martin's move from FS. If anyone needs a FS, draft Martin, he is soaring right now and has some great measurables. I also like the fact that Barnes had a faster 10 yard time and a great broad jump.

Via Diehardchris PM with the 119th pick the Baltimore Ravens select… Derek Pegues, FS, Mississippi State.

The Patriots are on the clock.

The New England Patriots select Sherrod Martin, FS, Troy.

I have hit all the positions I wanted too. I have been hoping for the last 15 picks that he will be here, and I got lucky.

I was about to take him. You got a great value here!

I could not believe you passed on him. To each his own I guess, I almost grabbed him in the 3rd but felt OG was a more pressing need. I never thought I would get him here.

[JCTexan]

With the 121st pick the Atlanta Falcons select Chris Baker, DT, Hampton.

I have been targeting a DT since the first, but haven't had one I liked fall to me. I thought about taking Baker in the 3rd, but thought he would be a reach there. I like him here in the fourth a little more.

From what I have seen, ne was a FS in college. I don't like the transition, and I think he and Barnes had some of the same measurables.

Good pick, bad character...

From CBS:

Baker struggled with off-field incidents at Penn State. He was suspended from the team at the end of the 2007 season and finally dismissed from the Nittany Lions in July 2008 after pleading guilty to two counts of misdemeanor assault and criminal trespass following two fights in 2007. He received two years of probation. Baker showed versatility playing at defensive end in a 3-4 after starting the year at nose tackle for Hampton. He earned first-team All-MEAC honors with 62 tackles, 16.5 tackles for loss and 8.5 sacks. Baker and his family decided it was time to leave the Pirates after his redshirt junior season, but character concerns follow him into the NFL.

I knew about his character problems... I like the DT to have a bit of a mean streak. Hopefully he gets his act together though.

I think there were several DT's that are close enough talent wise that you should of waited on that position.

Vance Walker Georgia Tech DT43
Sammie Lee Hill Stillman DT43 DE34
Roy Miller Texas DT43 DT34
Alex Magee Purdue DT43 DE34
Chris Baker Hampton DT43 DT34

Of course that was before we signed Cody.

I have to say that I totally hate youre draft so far but please, PLEASE dont take that personally. You are in the hardest position in this mock. We are all Texans fans and all have our players we want for this team. When we dont get them we arent going to be happy. The only way the majority is going to be happy with our Texans mock is if we Poll our votes. Even then alot of us will think it sucks.

I would also like to say thank you for the time and effort you have put in for this draft while being under such a microscope. I dont think I would want to be in youre position.

How did he last this long? Once you get past the 2nd round safeties (Delmas, Chung, Johnson, etc.) he's my top/favorite safety. Nice grab to get him late in the 4th.

Thanks for that. It's been a little rough lately but this has been a good diversion.

My draft doesn't suck though!!!

I PM'd you my explanation too. I spent some solid time researching that pick!

haha I thought you were going to explain your pick when you got back on. I didn't realize you wanted me to post that.

[DiehardChris]

I figure nobody cares once a buncha other picks have been made, you know?

Doesn't matter, though. Probably at this point people don't want to read explanations other than the Texans anyway.

I'm happy to see we had a pretty good handful of picks today. Sweet.

Yeah, it wasn't a pressing need for the Ravens, but how could they pass on the guy with Ed Reed aging and the fact that they're just SO defensive minded?

I think the guy is a PLAYER for sure.

Actually I would be interested to hear it if you wouldn't mind posting it. As I said above I really like Pegues and to be honest he seems to fit the Ravens defense perfectly.

If I had stayed in the draft I was gonna take Pegues with the Packers pick earlier.
