NFL Beat Writers' Mock Draft
sportsillustrated.cnn.com — Since we couldn't convince the GMs of all 29 teams with first-round draft picks to carve out some time for us today, we opted for the next best thing.For five hours Thursday afternoon, SI.com conducted a mock draft with the people whose job it is to follow the NFL team in their city 365 days a year. The results are below.

- lazersailer, on 04/25/2008, -11/+2OMG!!?!?! 1 (ONE) comment and ONLY 46!!?!?! DiggS!!?!?!
- atechnoviking, on 04/25/2008, -0/+4First off, I don't usually care about punctuation and grammar that much. But this looks like you actually TRIED to make it look horrible. What the hell is (this)?!?!?! The level of stupidity makes it seem like you are joking, but I just can't tell. Secondly, I am sick and tired of these annoying comments about the algorithm. Whatever it is, why does it matter? Who cares how many diggs the story gets before it reaches the front page? Maybe it's just me, but complaining about the number of diggs makes no sense.
- lazersailer, on 04/25/2008, -1/+1Yeah. I was making fun of those comments too. But that's chill, digg it down; I should have thought of something funnier.

- pdmarketing, on 04/25/2008, -7/+6Jets need to take McFadden if he is available. No need to Draft for a Quarterback..The Defense is improved tremendously and Chad Pennington
will be fine bringing along Kellen Clemens. GO J-E-T-S!- FeartheKnighted, on 04/25/2008, -1/+1McFadden is overrated, Kevin Smith will definitely be a better NFL 'back.
- masivemunkey, on 04/25/2008, -1/+1Uhh... Kevin Smith is going in the 3rd round, if anyone is going to be better than McFadden it will be Stewart
- FeartheKnighted, on 04/25/2008, -0/+1Too bad Kevin Smith had 800 more yards than Stewart, and played against similarly ranked defenses. Smith > Stewart all day.
- masivemunkey, on 04/25/2008, -1/+1Uhh... Kevin Smith is going in the 3rd round, if anyone is going to be better than McFadden it will be Stewart

- trackerbishop, on 04/25/2008, -3/+4an aside: ncaa basketball is dead because all the good players are uneducated thuggish pricks and go to the nba now.
nba is ruined because all the good players are uneducated, thuggish pricks who just care about $ and seeing who can get the most tats or shoot up a bar first.
gone are the days of sports role models (they werent necessary GOOD people but they knew how to maintain a professional image - magic, jordan, shaq and tiger are pretty much the last of them).
hey david stern - wanna know why your ratings are down? kids wanted to be like MIKE, not a 17 year old lebron james kid. institute age/degree requirements in the nba already!!!!! - Spaztic, on 04/25/2008, -3/+1Clady @ 5 is BS. Hope Chiefs get Gholston instead...
- OneLess, on 04/25/2008, -0/+1If Gholston doesn't go to a 3-4 defense I'm going to be kind of disappointed.
- travisMarc, on 04/25/2008, -2/+1theres no way the top 20 picks will be >80% [yeah thats not exact at all] defense and offensive linemen
- diothar, on 04/25/2008, -0/+1Those are key positions, underrated. They are needed to improve a team. This year's class of Wide Receivers, Running Backs, Linebackers is somewhat shallow.
- kavery, on 04/25/2008, -0/+6I'm such a nerd for mock drafts. Can't wait 'till Saturday.
- Lancer010, on 04/25/2008, -0/+1If Mel Kiper's gorgeous flowing hair is close...I'll be there.
- diemunkiesdie, on 04/25/2008, -0/+2I love the NFL and also follow NCAAF closely, but I am SO tired of reading a new mock draft every other day!!!
- ryogahibiki, on 04/25/2008, -0/+1That would be awesome if the niners got DeSean. He's gonna be the next great return man. But I doubt he's gonna be available when they pick.
- manoftheisland, on 04/25/2008, -0/+2this mock is not even close.... buried for rediculous writers making up trades that wont happen and drafting people based on what teams should do not what they will do.
- fubuvsfitch, on 04/25/2008, -0/+1ridiculous indeed.
/subtle?
- fubuvsfitch, on 04/25/2008, -0/+1ridiculous indeed.
- fubuvsfitch, on 04/25/2008, -0/+5Gotta love pick 31.
- fs88, on 04/25/2008, -0/+1I only listen to Todd McShay's analysis.
- smacksaw, on 04/25/2008, -0/+1This is the worst draft in forever. I feel sorry for the teams who got a top pick...pointless.
I think more teams will be trading down this year than usual, except they won't get a decent deal since no one wants to pay top draft pick money. I'll give props to the Tuna on Long...his salary was down from last year's draft, reflecting both the stupidity of overpaying JaMarcus AND the fact that none of these scrubs this year deserve big money.
For as much as it torqued me that the Pats are getting a top 10 pick, it's worthless this year. Still, if they get the Ghost-man...it's fuct. That will be lame. - 619gamester, on 04/25/2008, -0/+0Course you got to mock it. These top picks are getting paid just as much as the stars what a joke. Guys havn't even played in the NFL they could very well be a bust like most of them are and getting paid that much? What a joke. Over rated indeed.
- Veretax, on 04/25/2008, -0/+1what a worthless draft, no risks taken that I see.
- jacobpellegren, on 04/25/2008, -0/+1the nfl is running a pretty cool fantasy draft game that is worth a look, http://predictpick.nfl.com
