Mel Kiper Jr. is the worst mock-drafting "expert"

[Matt McGuire]

Just some funny bits I got from this...can't beleive I am reading it:

7. NE: Aqib Talib
9. CIN: Phillip Merling
20. TB: Felix Jones
23. PIT: Chilo Rachal
26. JAX: Derrick Harvey*
27. SD: Reggie Smith

This guy is out of his mind if he thinks Merling is a top 10 pick....low first of course...but not THAT high unless he dominates at the Combine.

No way the Bucs take a RB in the first 2 rounds...we have Caddy coming back strong next season and Earnest Graham was a pleasant surprise...already have a change of pace RB in Bennett if we resign him.

*Horrible pick because Harvey doesn't fit their scheme

Why would SD draft Reggie Smith? Just spent a 3rd on Paul Oliver and are set all across the DBs even with depth

just looking at kiper you know he's a phony. his plastic hair and makeup job just screams i don't really know what i'm talking about but i'm on tv so yo ushould listen to me.

mayock, on the other hand, has veins popping out of his neck and forehead and just wears whatever the crap his producers have him wear and beats up charles davis on the air. that's a man. HE'S 40!!

This is a load of BS. Merling probably won't go in the first considering the DE depth.

What were the other picks? Was Ellis already taken before Cinci's Pick? Even so, it's unlikely that both Gholston and Ellis go before Cincinnatis pick and whichever one is still there the Bungles will take.

Who the hell is Chilo Rachal?

[Matt McGuire]

Junior from USC that committed because his mom has health issues and his family needs the money. In the mix of the first tier of guards in this draft but I certainly don't think he is worth a first round selection.

[candyman82]

A guard in the first round? What the hell is he smoking?

[Matt McGuire]

Not only in the first, but #23 overall is very high for any guard. Steve Hutchinson, one of the best guard prospects ever, went #17 to Seattle I believe in 2001.

[candyman82]

Yeah, Kiper has his hea in his ass

[49ersfan]

Rachel is the best OG in the draft class IMO. That said, I don't see him any earlier then mid-second, especially since there are so many good prospects in this year's draft. Woo hoo, 700 posts.

[candyman82]

Congradulations, I'm in the 800's right now

[49ersfan]

LOL, that's going to be 900 pretty soon.

[candyman82]

Hopefully, I would be higher but I had to take a month off the site for midterms

[Vbsiena]

LOL, that's going to be 900 pretty soon.

Its unbelievable that you average 40 posts a day. Wow!

[candyman82]

Thats insane
