BuffaloBilliever Posted April 17, 2007 Posted April 17, 2007 I don't think they should pay these jag offs squat....
col_forbin Posted April 17, 2007 Posted April 17, 2007 I did this quick, but here is the results I was able to get out of the 2006 draft. (Based on an early April 06 Kiper Mock) First Round Correct Picks (Team and Number) - 4 (D'Brick, Hawk, Davis, Mercedes Lewis) Of the 32 picks, Kiper correctly identified 26 of them (missed Carpenter, Hali, Joseph, Mangold, Addai and Kiwi) as being first round picks Second Round Correct Picks (Team and Number) - 0 Correct Team, but wrong Pick number - 2 (McIntosh, Justice) Of the 32 picks, Kiper correctly identified 15 of them as being 2nd round picks Third Round Correct Picks (Team and Number) - 0 Correct Team, but wrong Pick number - 3 (Winston, Youboty, Pope) Of the 33 picks, Kiper correctly identified 12 of them as being 3rd round picks Summary In the ENTIRE first 3 rounds, Kiper only identified FOUR correct picks (Team and Number). In the ENTIRE first 3 rounds, Kiper only correctly identified 9 of 97 picks to the correct team. Of the 97 players taken in the first 3 rounds, only 76 of them were in his 3 round mock draft. So, someone tell me why we should listen to this Goober? You don't need stats to know not to listen to Kiper
richNjoisy Posted April 17, 2007 Posted April 17, 2007 You don't need stats to know not to listen to Kiper Here is how Rick Gosselin's 2006 mock draft looked - he seems to be one of the most accurate guys out there: http://forum.signonsandiego.com/archive/in...hp/t-60251.html Now, here is his latest 2007 mock: http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dw...ft.2dc3375.html
The Tomcat Posted April 17, 2007 Posted April 17, 2007 Rick Gosselin's first mock draft Team Player Pos. School 1. Oakland JaMarcus Russell QB LSU 2. Detroit Adrian Peterson RB Oklahoma Matt Millen has struggled with top-10 picks in his stint as general manager of the Lions. Peterson would be a safe and popular choice. Detroit had success using first-round picks on Oklahoma runners Steve Owens (1970) and Billy Sims (1980). 3. Cleveland Calvin Johnson WR Georgia Tech 4. Tampa Bay Brady Quinn QB Notre Dame 5. Arizona Joe Thomas OT Wisconsin 6. Washington Gaines Adams DE Clemson 7. Minnesota LaRon Landry S LSU 8. Atlanta Leon Hall CB Michigan 9. Miami Alan Branch DT Michigan 10. Houston Amobi Okoye DT Louisville 11. San Francisco Jamaal Anderson DE Arkansas 12. Buffalo Marshawn Lynch RB California 13. St. Louis Darrelle Revis CB Pittsburgh 14. Carolina Patrick Willis LB Mississippi 15. Pittsburgh Adam Carriker DE Nebraska Carriker is the prototypical defensive end for a 3-4 scheme. But his true value lies is his versatility. With his size (6-6, 296), he can line up at any of the four positions along the defensive line. 16. Green Bay Ted Ginn Jr. WR Ohio State 17. Jacksonville Jarvis Moss DE Florida 18. Cincinnati Reggie Nelson S Florida 19. Tennessee Robert Meachem WR Tennessee 20. N.Y. Giants Levi Brown OT Penn State 21. Denver Lawrence Timmons LB Florida State 22. Dallas Dwayne Bowe WR LSU With two starting wide receivers in their 30s, the Cowboys need a young player to build a future downfield passing game for Tony Romo. Bowe is a physical receiver in the Michael Irvin mold. 23. Kansas City Justin Harrell DT Tennessee 24. New England Jon Beason LB Miami 25. N.Y. Jets Aaron Ross CB Texas 26. Philadelphia Chris Houston CB Arkansas 27. New Orleans Dwayne Jarrett WR Southern California 28. New England Michael Griffin S Texas 29. Baltimore Joe Staley OT Central Michigan 30. San Diego Anthony Gonzalez WR Ohio State 31. Chicago Paul Posluszny LB Penn State 32. Indianapolis Greg Olsen TE Miami
Steely Dan Posted April 17, 2007 Posted April 17, 2007 I'm still holding fast to my prediction that Lynch isn't even on their draft board.
