A Realistic Future

     If you guys want to know a really good mock draft sight go to walterfootball.com. A lot of you probably already know this sight. I get a lot of information from it and it ranks all of the players by their positions. I would think this is a very realistic scenario and it would fill all of our holes at RE, RT, RG, SLB, MLB, WR, CB and K. I'm putting quarterback on the back burner because of Thigpen's play and the utter lack of talent in this years draft. I'm still for drafting a QB, just not in any of the high rounds. 

Sign

Dansby - Great, young, athletic OLB for the Cardinals. They might let him go because of their cap situation and they want to resign Warner. 

Colombo - Big right tackle for the Cowboys. Jerry Jones has been spending money like a mad man so I think this could be a possibility. He is 29 years old. 

Nugent - Kicker for the Jets. He has been injured this year, but when he was healthy he was probably one of the better kickers in the league. Edwards drafted him in the 2nd round back in NY. Even if Barth is fairly accurate we can't afford to keep him on because of his kick offs, which are killing us in field position. 

Draft

1. Orakpo (Texas, DE) - Probably not the BPA if we are drafting top 3. However, I don't think it would be a huge reach by any means. This guy is a freak of nature physically and he is an all around good DE. His production is pretty good this season especially when you take into account that he is playing in the Big 12. 

2. Spikes (Florida, MLB) - If you watched the South Carolina game you saw Brandon pick off two passes, one for a score. This guy is a prototype cover two LB. I'm worried Detroit might try and snag him before we do. I'd be tempted to trade up, Millen isn't in Detroit anymore so they might notice this kid's talent and they have a need at MLB as well. 

3. D Williams (Penn St., WR) - He is going into the third because his numbers are not exactly off the charts. However, this guy is one of the more explosive WR in college football. We can use him in the slot, for end arounds and punt returns. 

4. Canfield (Cincinnati, RG) - I saw this guy play against Louisville the other night and he was dominating. He is 310 lbs and runs a 5.10, which is pretty quick for a guard. The knock on him is off the field issues. By the way I think we might have to trade back into the 3rd to get him. (5th round pick and 2010 2nd round pick)

5. Word-Daniels (Georgia Tech, CB) - A cover two corner that will give us much needed depth.

6. Capers (West Virginia, OT) - An athletic tackle that will give us depth. I want to move Taylor to LG and Waters to C so this is an insurance policy. Taylor will still be the primary back-up to Albert on the depth chart.

7. John Parker Wilson (Alabama, QB) - Not exactly the sexiest QB, but he manages games well. I know what your thinking; not another Alabama QB!!! He doesn't have injury issues so far though and if he leads Alabama to a NC then he has my respect. By the way this pick is in the 6th round. I think this is the other pick we got for Bennett. The 2010 class is going to be sick so don't dwell on the fact that we didn't draft a QB high. 

8. McCain (Utah, CB) - He is a little on the short side, 5'9". However, the kid runs a 4.33. I say what the hell, it's the 7th round. Can return kicks too. 

Cut (my favorite part)

McIntosh, D Edwards (retire), Barth, Babin, Colclough, Maclin, Jones, Webb, Carnahan, Huard and Thomas. I think we should bring Croyle back to camp and he can compete for a roster spot with Gray and Wilson. Also, I think we should resign Niswanger, Page and McGraw.
