Combine mock

[Bob Sacamano]

22. Michigan WR Mario Manningham

fast receiver w/ a burst, is a vertical threat who catches the ball at it's highest point, has great leaping ability, averaged a TD every 5 catches at Michigan, w/ most of them being of the 20+ yard variety, just a hunch here, but some of the questions the Cowboys asked Chad Henne when they talked to them pertained to his #1 option

28. Tennessee State CB Dominique Rogers-Cromartie

long, lean cousin of San Diego CB Antonio Cromartie, has good speed and a good burst, plays the ball well and is willing in run-support

pick subject to trade w/ Atlanta for DeAngelo Hall

2nd. Texas A&M DT Red Bryant

massive, athletic NT, is great at occupying double teams, and collapsing the pocket

3rd. West Virginia RB Steve Slaton

dual threat RB w/ big play ability, possesses good agility and hands out of the backfield, an explosive runner

4th. LSU CB Chevis Jackson

5th. Virginia Tech OLB Chris Ellis

6th. Tennessee S Jonathan Hefney

7th. Ole Miss RB BenJarvus Green-Ellis

Interesting. Being totally honest nothing there really excites me beyond Cromartie but at the same time they are all very safe picks that I could not complain about.

an explosive WR doesn't excite you? or how about an explosive RB?

thanks for your input however

No, don't get me wrong, they do and I don't have any issues with the positions picked. I'm just not a big fan of Manningham or Slaton. It's not a bad draft by any means, just does not excite me.

I think it's a solid mock. I'd be very happy with it. I'd like to see a guard in the mid rounds somewhere - like a Mike McGlynn or John Greco - but that's being a bit picky.

 

[ABQcowboyJR]

I like the draft as well for the current situation. I fear that OT might become more of a priority later. Solid mock. I like the Manningham pick though

I sure hope Manningham plays faster then he runs because his 40 times at the combine don't say "explosive"

manningham isn't going at 22 after his performance in the 40 2day

I am sure his pro day will reestablish himself.

22. Michigan WR Mario Manningham

fast receiver w/ a burst,

Oops.

 

[ayjackson]

Holy crappy fourty, batman! Back to the drawing board, Sac?

 

[Bob Sacamano]

he plays faster than his 40 time

btw, screw this draft

DeSean Jackson at 22

Chris Johnson at 28

Charles Godfrey in the 2nd

and I'll figure the rest
