Big Blue View Community Mock Draft
All right, draft experts. Let's try our hand at our own Big Blue View Community Mock Draft.
Here is how this is going to work.
- If you want to participate as a drafter, e-mail me at bigblueview@gmail.com. Put 'BBV Mock Draft' and the team you want to select for in the subject line. Be sure to include your BBV user name in the e-mail so I know who you are. First person to request a team gets that team. I will draft for the Giants, so don't ask. Remember, the Bears have no selections and the Panthers only have a second-round pick. San Francisco and Seattle have two first-round picks.
- You get to select for only one team, so please don't ask for several. If you choose the 49ers or Seahawks, you will be asked to pick twice.
- I would like to do two rounds. That, however, depends on how quickly selected drafters get picks back to me. I will try to be patient, but if I don't have your pick within 24 hours of notifying you that you are "On the Clock," I will make the selection for you.
- We will conduct the draft via e-mail.I will notify you via e-mail when you are on the clock. Reply with your pick. Please include the following: Player, Position, School and a short (maybe two paragraphs) summary of your reason for the selection.
- I will put up a post for each pick individually. The entire draft will be charted in a table at the end of each post.
I would love to get this started Tuesday morning. So, as soon as I have drafters selected for the first several teams we will get going. Watch the table after the jump to see which teams are still available.
[UPDATE 8:41 AM EDT : The board is filling up quickly. Please check the chart before e-mailing me with a team request.]
[UPDATE 10:19 AM EDT: Remaining teams as of right now are Kansas City, Denver, Atlanta, Houston, Cincinnati, Green Bay, Arizona, Dallas (unbelievable!!), Minnesota, Indianapolis (SBaker? Peytonsthebest?). ]
[UPDATE 11:08 AM EDT: Only Atlanta, Arizona, Cincinnati and Indianapolis remain. BTW, the first pick is already in and will be posted Tuesday morning. That puts 'soulpower' on the clock for Detroit's pick. ]

Trades
Are you allowing trades of picks only?

Good question
No trades. It just gets too confusing, and too unrealistic.

they do have an unsettled QB position so perhaps a new guy will come in and start!

He still might!
I bet he wishes he could do trades – he would have the Rams first for McNabb and the two Seattle picks for Kolb and the Raiders first and second for Vick!

Just because you and I and say 99% of the population know it is wrong does not mean that we can judge whether he knew what he was doing was wrong.

Tony Washington OT
its kinda screwed up…he’s gotta register as a sex offender for the rest of his life cuz he banged his sister.
I dunno what’s more F’d..that he did it, or the law on this one
Master of the squeegee
by FreeBradshaw on Mar 15, 2010 9:17 AM EDT up reply actions
the law
I don’t know, maybe I don’t see the issue as clearly b/c I’m an only child and all of my first cousins are male, so obviously I never had this issue, but I just don’t really see what the issue is – obviously it’s weird and a complete social taboo, but if the act was consensual, why is it illegal? And does his sister also have to register as a sex offender? Why do I suspect she doesn’t…
Laws like this are pretty ridiculous.
2009 Did Not Happen
I agree
It has more to do with perception ie he hit on his sister whereas the whole family setup made what happen appear to be acceptable to a 16 year child.
What is worse – what he did or what Cromartie has done with 7 children with 6 different women?
by G Fan in England on Mar 15, 2010 11:26 AM EDT up reply actions
I gotta say Cromartie or Travis Henry
its disgusting what Tony did…but I mean….yea, i don’t have a sister either, merely female cousins (and uhh..yea, that’s nasty)
But when I think of a registered sex offender, I think of Michael Jackson.
I feel bad for em, cuz for the rest of his life he’s gotta be lumped into that..and really, what he did was just nasty.
Master of the squeegee
by FreeBradshaw on Mar 15, 2010 12:21 PM EDT up reply actions
Nasty
in what way?
If his upbringing/family setup had not shown it was wrong and the two of them made a mistake why is it nasty? It is uncomortable reading but if it happened once surely we can accept it was a mistake and leave it at that.
There was a story in the UK where brother and sister had been put out to adoption individually. They met as adults years later not knowing (and how would they) that they were related and had a relationship.
Does that make him a sex monster, does that make it nasty? Not in my view.
By all accounts he was an immature kid who made one mistake. Let him live his life.
by G Fan in England on Mar 15, 2010 12:35 PM EDT up reply actions
Nasty in every way possible

by I_Formation27 on Mar 15, 2010 12:55 PM EDT up reply actions
If I'm a GM
It’s not the act itself and whether or not he’s a sex offender or a seriously messed-up kid, it’s the fact that merely 6 years ago, this kid’s life was so screwed up that he didn’t know a basic DO/DON’T at 16 years old, how is this kid gonna be when I sign him to a 7-8 figure contract? What’s going to happen to him then? He obviously doesn’t have a family structure to fall back on. I think if you draft this guy, you have to give him a live-in mentor./big brother.
Found this really nice piece about Washington
http://www.sportsfanlive.com/sflreports/entry/sportsfanlive_com_exclusive_lineman_s
After reading it I think I would be willing to give the guy a chance. Sounds like he has been under the microscope for a while and come out very well.
They've done studies you know, 60% of the time, it works everytime.
Not really
he’s entitled to participate.
by Ed Valentine on Mar 15, 2010 11:02 AM EDT up reply actions
why?
It’s the BBV Community Mock Draft, and Bye Dawk is definitely part of the community. If it were a “Giants Fans Mock,” then yea, it would defeat the point. But it’s not, and he has more knowledge of the Eagles than any of us, so I think it makes perfect sense.

I’m no draft expert but if you need a body you can pick a team for me and i’ll do some research.

Can’t screw up their roster any worse then they normally would.

Good luck...
Especially if you are picking for the Brownies…
Nice...
got Seattle. 2 picks in top 15. Which means, I can get ripped to shreds by Free twice!
I promise not to rip anyone....
unless the Jaguars dude picks Tebow.
That would be dumb

Tebow
Will not be on the board as I am picking him for the Skins as all they are missing is a backup QB.
by G Fan in England on Mar 15, 2010 9:44 AM EDT up reply actions
According to the folks down here in DC...
The skins are having an excellent offseason. They are praising “ShanAllenhan” for their collective efforts to keep Dan Snyder in check. I don’t buy it myself. They have a ton of holes and aren’t going to fill them all in the draft.
Charlie: I'll just regress, because I feel I've made myself perfectly redundant.
by Larry Soprano on Mar 15, 2010 9:51 AM EDT up reply actions
They're being smart, for once, and seeing what shakes loose
There willl be alot of releases coming, as I’m sure some of the tenders were for insurance only.
Bleeding Blue since 1962
eh
the one offseason where spending free agent money actually makes sense, and the Redskins aren’t doing it. It almost seems like they’re going out of their way to correct their image, even if it hurts the on field product.
2009 Did Not Happen
It only makes sense if you wait at this point
The first names were going to be overpayed, that’s how it works. None of us know the consequences of overspending, and won’t until the new CBA. The teams who go hog wild could be looking at a messy pile of re-structuring contracts next year, once the cap is established in force.
Bleeding Blue since 1962
at this point, yea
I just meant, heading into free agency, this is the one year where overspending actually makes some sense. And for once in his life, Snyder showed some restraint. I respect that the Redskins are trying to change their image, I just find it kind of ironic
2009 Did Not Happen
well they didn't sign
Peppers, Dansby or Rolle…all of which they were rumored to be interested in.
I guess I’d praise them too (kinda like I’d praise someone for keeping Glen Sather in check…or firing him)
Master of the squeegee
by FreeBradshaw on Mar 15, 2010 9:57 AM EDT up reply actions
Changing the culture
thats why they havent been active, they have to change some alarming past practices of the redskins, spending money is fine as long as you dnt end up last in your division every year………….they have a good Defense, so I think Shann’s playing it safe and letting things come to him………..LJ was a good pickup but they need some O linemen quick
But dont tell em i told you that !!!!!
I think they go Okung if the Lions don't take him
or the next best OT. Samuels retiring left a big hole. Shanahan is a smart cookie. He’ll shore up the trenches first. Campbell has promise if they can give him some protection. He knows QB’s and he would have moved on one if he didn’t think JC had potential.
Bleeding Blue since 1962
I agree
He likes campbell and so do i, he has potential and shann will get it out of him…….i got them with okung as well
But dont tell em i told you that !!!!!
I wouldn't say he "likes" Campbell
I’d say he’s tolerable of him, especially compared to his other options. They need a backup QB too, so it will be interesting to see if they bring in a guy who knows he’s a backup or a guy that will compete with Campbell for the job. That’s a headache they don’t need.

by Larry Soprano on Mar 15, 2010 10:26 AM EDT up reply actions
I get you, but if they don't go Clausen,
which I think isn’t going to happen, that makes a pretty telling statement, not too short of a ringing endorsement.
Bleeding Blue since 1962
If they go Clausen...
I will certainly be entertained for the rest of the offseason as they will go nuts down here.
Charlie: I'll just regress, because I feel I've made myself perfectly redundant.
by Larry Soprano on Mar 15, 2010 10:47 AM EDT up reply actions
I know Skins fans want to throw Campbell out with the trash
Fans rarely make sense about stuff like that. They finally have a competent coaching staff in place and Snyder, seemingly, under control.
If Shanahan thought that he couldn’t win with JC, he’d already have made moves in that direction. I doubt that Clausen is really an upgrade over Campbell. He started to look pretty good last year and with an O-line that works and a running game to go with the developing receiver corps, they could win some games. Add a good receiver and their sitting pretty.
Bleeding Blue since 1962
That was quick
But I haven’t even drafted Tebow yet, Free! I will try to not let this affect my choice as Jags GM.
nah you can select Tebow if you feel that's right.
I don’t get the whole sell tickets thing.
Cuz if/when Tebow busts in the NFL…the Jags have a better chance of moving to LA anyway, cuz they’ll have #10 overall money tied into another piece of crap player.

I’ll be glad to tap the collective of the Miami area, although I think I know the Tuna pretty well.
Bleeding Blue since 1962
I jsut saw that
Lombardi has the jags picking mcclain.. does’nt jacksonville have a dedent inside backer?
It's, at the very least, a low level need and not where they should go.
They have no 2nd rounder so they are trying to trade down for picks. If they’re leaking info, it’s to line up suitors.
Bleeding Blue since 1962
Clint Ingram and Justin Durant are OLB’s, but both were playing MLB at times this year.
So yea, if they like McClain, they could definitely use a MLB

i know they took it to our giants early in the season and sent them spiraling, but i like the idea of mocking the last pick of the 1st round, plus they only have a few glaring needs

Bleeding Blue since 1962
Thats easy
Just act as if round 1 is actually round 3 and draft the most athletic person left.
But dont tell em i told you that !!!!!
eh Al can be weird
Sometimes he makes a surprising amount of sense, others he makes zero sense. The biggest problem with the raiders is that his style of play is incredibly outdated. It’s hard to get away with playing straight man when you never blitz and its hard to have a vertical passing game when you neglect the offensive line.

Weird Al
is probably going to pick Taylor Mays or Bruce Campbell
But dont tell em i told you that !!!!!
Bruce Campbell doesn't make it past Al, this year.
He may have a shot at Mays in the 2nd. Wouldn’t that be a hoot?
Bleeding Blue since 1962
LOL
I think we got his first two picks down, that would be hilarious if it panned out, i tell you what tho, if there was a combine competition btw all the teams, the Raiders would dominate every year
But dont tell em i told you that !!!!!
If he blitzed
that would make Namdi’s #‘s even better cause they would have to throw at him instead of avoid him all game. Qb’s just sit back and pick on other areas of the field……the Raiders have talent but they dnt utilize it. You are correct, their style of play is counter productive to the talent on the roster.
But dont tell em i told you that !!!!!
You got it right last year with your DHB pick

All I ask is that drafters choose the player that the respective team
could actually want rather than play the “spoiler”. I know it could be tempting, but please show some restraint and “method behind the madness”.

To make it fair to all the teams you can now draft a clone of a player already drafted.

Nope
I already have the Rams pick, and it has been communicated. It will be posted tomorrow morning. The sooner I can get these in, the quicker we get through. And that increases the likelihood we get through 2 rounds.

God this is so typical of living in New Zealand
by the time I get in to work and fire up BBV all the teams have been taken and the drafting has started. I will sit in the corner and sulk, and maybe supply Free with (metaphorical) cold beer and chips so that he can devote all his energies to roasting the drafters.
They've done studies you know, 60% of the time, it works everytime.
