Default 2007 NFL Draft

Here's a mock draft put together by Vic Carucci of NFL.com:

1. Oakland: JaMarcus Russell, QB, LSU
The Raiders are starting over at quarterback -- again. They could go with Notre Dame's Brady Quinn, but Russell's off-the-charts physical skills and arm strength give him enough of an edge to rank as the No. 1 quarterback in the draft. His massive frame is a plus, but his weight at the NFL Combine (265 pounds) was about 10 pounds heavier than the Raiders or any team would prefer. Of course, given their unpredictable history, the Raiders could go with a different position. Their draft board, like that of many other teams, might very well show Georgia Tech wide receiver Calvin Johnson at the top.

2. Detroit: Joe Thomas, OT, Wisconsin
The Lions will be tempted to use their first pick on yet another receiver, especially after Johnson's highly impressive showing at the Combine. General Manager Matt Millen also could give serious thought to selecting one of the top two quarterbacks available (Russell or Quinn) or Clemson defensive end Gaines Adams, another prospect who gave a strong Combine showing. But of all of their holes, the most logical for them to plug with this choice is offensive tackle. Thomas, who is a superb athlete, is the best at the position in this year's college crop and should be a fixture on the Lions' line for many years to come.

I'll be amazed if the Raiders actually take Russell with the #1 pick. It wouldn't surprise me to see them take Calvin Johnson. In fact, I read somewhere today where they were invloved in trade rumors concerning a QB to come in and be their starter.

Today is the day. The NFL Draft will be underway in a few short hours. Feel free to weigh in with your opinions as the draft progresses. Me, I'm still convinced that the Raiders will find a way to screw up the first pick in the draft.

By the way, it sounds as though there may be a trade between the Niners and Seahawks. The Niners would receive Darrell Jackson and the Seahawks would receive one of the Niners' 4th round picks.
