You may know who he is but I doubt that Slatemosphere did and if he did know who he was I don't see how he can say anyone in this draft has better hands them him.

Ya I know who he is and I don't take back my statement. Hakeem Nicks just inhales footballs in his hands and snatches them out of the air. He's also 3 inches taller and 30 pounds heavier and just as fast. Hakeem has Larry Fitzgerald type potential. I see alot of similarities.

I'd hate to see Nicks on the Giants because that where most mocks have him going.

Williams or Knox in the 4th wouldn't hurt my feelings. Austin gets swooped up by the Jets I would expect to hear about Torry Holt sitings. There would be absolutely no excuses now. Maclin and Crabtree are going to Oakland and Jacksonville. After them I don't want to hear about a WR until after we get Rashad Johnson in the 3rd.

Nicks, Britt, Robskie, Harvin, and Bey will break many a hearts for 3 years and then they're gone by the 4th like Barbie will be this year.

Hakeem Nicks baby!

Look how he catches the ball..he has the best hands in this years class and has some "stretch the field" ability.

He looks good, but he holds the ball way too far away from his body when he is running. Crayton does that too and it scares me every time

Besides the facts that Nicks numbers for his career is like one season for him.

40 inch vertical 60 TD's 292 receptions 4193 yards....yeah nothing to see here....the comparison to fitzgerald is a joke.

PFW Draft Guide summary on Nicks:

"Possesses the pure pass receiving skills, super strong hands and competitiveness to become a clutch performer and shows striking similarities to Dallas Cowboys HOF WR Michael Irvin"

I'm guessing he got feedback on that from Butch Davis.

He'd be a good add, but I doubt we'll have a chance to get him.

The Boys wont draft him, because everyone here wants him.

1) Trade #52 and #101 (476 points) for #43 (470 points). Draft Brian Robiskie, WR, Ohio St.

2) Rd. 2 (51) Louis Delmas, FS, Western Michigan

3) Rd. 3 (69) Lawrence Sidbury, OLB, Richmond

4) Rd. 4 (117) TJ Lang, OL, Eastern Michigan

5) Rd. 5 (156) Johnny Knox, WR, ACU or Mike Wallace, WR, Mississippi

6) Rd. 5 (166) Jason Phillips, ILB, TCU

7) Rd. 5 (172) Donald Washington, CB, Ohio St.

These picks are all based off of cbssports.com database. I for one would be ecstatic with this draft.
Not bad at all, I can't say I'd be disappointed either, but I'm not so sure Jason Phillips injury warrants a fall to the fifth round...

Might be the first mock I have seen done that makes me want to go watch the rookie camps.

I have done a couple but none more intriguing than this.

Very nicely done bro.

Thanks. It would be amazing if our draft ended up looking like that. I went by how cbssports.com ranked the players and all those picks were w/i 5-7 slots of where they were ranked. If it actually plays out like that is anyone's guess...
