You mean this Jerod Mayo

The #1 ranked MLB in the draft and projected late 1st early second round pick.

he's #22 overall

Kiper was raving about him on the last ESPN podcast too. Late 1st rounder. Too bad, he would kill as a Tampa-2 MLB

I think you read about him here.

It looks like they put the wrong draft round on the profile since he's listed by them as the #2 MLB right between a 1st rounder and 2nd-3rd rounder here

I like the rest

Maybe Jacob Tamme in that spot, even though he duplicates Clark/Fletcher. Or bump up Legursky, I've seen him rated 5th-6th round. Lichtensteiger from Bowling Green would be another good choice for a center available in that area.

backup QB?

what happened to Bernard Morris? i want him in the blue and white

by skywalker on Apr 7, 2008 5:50 PM EDT up reply actions

I liked the Center pick over backup QB

I'll go with
2-RB Chris Johnson
3-DE Marus Howard
4-OG Robert Felton
5-WR Arman Sheilds
6a-DE Rudolph Hardie
6b-C Kory Lichtensteiger
6c-FB Jacob Hester
6d-OT Thaddeus Coleman
7-QB Bernard Morris

Like the one I did based off the DraftTek mock but being optimistic about a few guys falling a half round.

I like

this is our best bet for mock draft i believe

Best possible result

If the Colts get Johnson AND Howard AND Lictensteiger AND Hardie, there are the pass rushers so important this draft, Jeff Saturday's replacement (though I think the Colts will--and should--extend him) and a hybrid RB/WR freak with insane possibilities. Words cannot express the excitement.

The fault, dear Brutus, lies not in the stars, but in ourselves.

In my excitement

Even if BBS is right, and it's Forte, not Johnson, that's still great. I like Lictensteiger for the center over the Marshall guy.

The fault, dear Brutus, lies not in the stars, but in ourselves.

Agreed

I hope we get Lictensteiger as well.

by coltsfanawalt on Apr 7, 2008 10:04 PM EDT up reply actions

I want

Forte or Johnson, Howard, Brown, and Hardie, Morris, and Shields. All of those picks would make me a happy fan.

wait

Do you think Jerod Mayo is going to go in the 6th round? I'm not sure the guidelines of these posts, but if so, you're smoking smoething very crazy BBS.

More like early to mid first rounder. 6th? Where you coming up with this stuff.
