Just for shits and giggles.... throw what you think the top 10 will look like in the NFL draft this coming April.

Do it however you want - based on who has the 10 worst records now, how you think the top 10 will shape out, or if there will be any trades, etc. Just be sure to add what scenario you're going with.

Mine is based on if the season ended today, who the top 10 teams selecting would be, to include trades:



1. Indianapolis Colts - Andrew Luck, QB, Stanford
Luck is too good to pass up - even if you have Peyton Manning coming back. Ideally, you'd give Manning one final year while Luck "learns", and then you go with Luck in 2013.

2. Washington Redskins* - Landry Jones, QB, Oklahoma
With the rookie wage scale, trading into the top 10 is an option once again. After a year of Grossman and Beck, and the failed McNabb trade... Snyder and Allen realize they need to sell out to be sure they get a guy at QB who will not only give Shannahan something to work with, but more importantly, from Snyders perspective, invigorate the fan base.

3. Minnesota Vikings - Matt Kalil, OT, USC
Minnesota has needs all over, and Kalil is a day one starter to protect Ponders blind side.

4. Carolina Panthers - Justin Blackmon, WR, OSU
They have holes on defense, but receiver is also a need, and a better value than any defender at this point as well.

5. St. Louis Rams*- Alshon Jeffries, WR, South Carolina
Rams gambled trading down with Washington and hoped to still land Blackmon, but the gamble did not pay off. They take a nice consolation price in Alshon Jeffries.

6. Miami Dolphins - Robert Griffin III, QB, Baylor
Might be considered a reach today, but I think Griffin is the kind of player who's stock will only rise between now and April. Wouldn't suprise me if he gets some pub as being the 2nd best QB prospect in the draft behind Luck at some point.

7. Jacksonville Jaguars -Johnathan Martin, OT, Stanford
Jacksonville is such a shitty, blah franchise. They should be retracted. But instead of that happening, they draft some protection for Gabbert.

8. Arizona Cardinals - Trent Richardson, RB, Alabama
Not an immediate need, but too talented to pass up. Gives the Cardinals an immediate running game, and ends the failed Beanie Wells era.

9. Tampa Bay Buccaneers - Morris Claiborn, CB, LSU
Can't have enough corners in the NFC South. And Claiborn can come in and start from day one.

10. Seattle Seahawks - Matt Barkley, QB, USC
Pete Carrol would be so fortunate to have his QB land in his lap. If so, no brainer selection.




But wait! There's more!!!

Mid-20's. Dallas Cowboys - Peter Kontz, C, Wisconsin
Cowboys have connections on that Wisconsin coaching staff. Kontz fills an immediate need and provides center leadership for 10 years.

Value/talent is on offense in this coming draft.

My mock is better than the one you've posted in this thread.

Regarding Ryan Williams - I actually forgot about him. Still, his injury was pretty gruesome.

I wouldn't be surprised to see the Cards take Barkley or trade out and allow some other team that is QB-needy to take Barkley and thereby screw the Seahawks.

I feel like I've whipped my dick onto the table, and you guys are all sitting there, looking at it, saying "It's not that big" and otherwise criticizing it. But none of you have the gall to whip out your own meat sticks.

Unless you show me your manbeef, you all just need to shut your mouth's.

Draft order as of today (no trades)
1. Colts - Andrew Luck QB Stanford
2. Panthers - Matt Kalil T USC
3. Rams - Justin Blackmon WR Oklahoma State
4. Vikings - Quinton Coples DE North Carolina
5. Redskins - Matt Barkley QB USC (puke)
6. Cardinals - Jonathan Martin T Stanford
7. Jaguars - Alshon Jeffery WR South Carolina
8. Dolphins - Robert Griffin III QB Baylor
9. Dream Team - Riley Reiff T Iowa
10. Chiefs - Morris Claiborne CB LSU

With trades I would imagine some teams needing a QB would want to jump ahead of the Redskins with the Panthers, Rams, and Vikings all willing to trade down a few spots.

Please no....

20. Dallas Cowboys - David DeCastro G Stanford or Peter Konz C Wisconsin. I was all aboard the Konz express until I read about some disease he has. If doctors clear him I am back on the train.

Depending on what happens in free agency, the first pick could easily be a defensive player.

This is the first time that I can ever recall that I've been pumped for the draft during the regular season.

We're first in the division, with the playoffs a month away... and I'm more excited thinking about the draft than I am the post season.

WTF.

Obviously you were sleeping during the Campo glory years then. By the end of September thats all any of us had to look forward to during his time here.

I wasin the military during that time. I missed several almost entire years due to overseas deployments.

To clue you in on how little I knew.... I'm also a Vols fan, and Quincy Carter used to give the Vols fits. We were in Norway and a buddy and I went to an internet cafe to check the draft results. I saw we drafted QC... and my first thought was "Super Bowl."
