Around SBN: Jeremy Lin's Game-Winner Was Incredible, Worth Remembering

Continuing the Draft Subject (Rd 1)

I hate all of you for mentioning the draft.  Now I'm going to become obsessed again.  I love the draft.  I love the "Who The Hell Will We Draft" posts on here.  I like to connect college football and the NFL.  I watch so much college football that I feel like I can make good calls on the draft.  So now that I've caved into the draft discussion, here is my current Colts mock draft:

1st: I have said that this pick should be traded for one next year, but since that would be unlikely, I will keep it here.  There are a few ways the Colts can go with this one.  Our defensive tackles are a bunch of no names who have performed well over the past few weeks.  Ryan Diem is declining.  Marvin Harrison may be cut or retire.  Sorgi is still Sorgi.  There are a lot of ways we could go here. Here are some people that may be left when we pick in the late first round:

Percy Harvin/WR/Florida
Terrence Cody/DT/Alabama
Sen'Derrick Marks/DT/Auburn
Jeremy Maclin/WR/Missouri
Darrius Heyward-Bey/WR/Maryland
Jason Smith/OT/Baylor
Brian Cushing/OLB/USC
Peria Jerry/DT/Ole Miss
Eben Britton/OT/Arizona

As I've said before, Percy Harvin would be my pick.  He's an amazing player.  He can run and catch.  He can return kicks.  He would be a great receiver to follow in Marvin's steps.  He's a raw talent, but hopefully he can progress while Reggie and Gonzalez carry a bit of the load left by Marvin.

And I should break down round two sometime soon.  Either way, there are many ways we could go here.  Marks is someone who catches my eye.  Heyward-Bey and Maclin are both very explosive as well.  Smith would fit in nicely as a right tackle.  However, I have my eyes set on a certain DT in the later rounds, and offensive tackle will be tough to decide.  For QB, I really want Graham Harrell, but I'm not sure if that would happen.

Well, here is the first round.  We get Percy Harvin, but we still need some help.  Hopefully I find someone of my liking in round 2, but after a quick look, it may look like a trade-down situation.
