  1. I like Shipley. Not a big fan of Grubbs but Sitton is a beast. Before anyone jumps on me it's documented I wasn't Grubbs' biggest fan while he was a Raven.

    Anyway I think Shipley will do well with those guards beside him. Are you going for a ZBS or power?

     

    Power most likely, especially with McFadden as my RB. Mostly, my focus is just keeping Peyton untouched though.

  2. Good to see you have returned. Keep in mind if you are busy just leave your pick with someone. There are many of us willing to post picks for each other, then we don't have to all wait around for a full day for you. Thanks.

    FYI I like the Robinson pick, gabes analysis of him was pretty much spot on. Shipley I would question weather he can be a reliable starter. He seems like more of a strong backup to me.

     

    Yeah that was my fault, I was away all weekend and anticipated internet access, which unfortunately was not the case.

     

    Shipley is a very underrated player. He's a significantly better center than Samson Satele, who is grossly overpaid and overrated. While Shipley has plenty of room to grow, he's definitely on the right track. Plus on my o-line, being sandwiched in between Josh Sitton and Ben Grubbs will definitely be to Shipley's benefit as well.

  3. Side Effects was a decent movie with a great twist.

     

    I'd say more than decent. I liked it a lot, although It probably won't be as good the second time around if I choose to give it a second viewing. But talk about taking the way you feel about a character for a rollercoaster ride. And Rooney Mara is quite the actress, I liked her in Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, and I liked her in Side Effects. Fun fact: Mara's mother's family founded the Steelers and her father's family founded the Giants.

  4. I liked the Allen pick. I had him on my list of top WR left. He wasn't at the top because I'm looking for a different type of WR but I love Allen. Broyles was also on my top WR list.

    Do you want to leave your pick with anyone or will you be around for when berad picks?

     

    I remember you loved Allen from the other mock. He fit my need for a possession WR across from Harvin perfectly.

     

    I should be around most of the afternoon, hopefully these next few picks roll right along.

  5. I probably over drafted Hopkins a bit but he was always my favorite in this draft. I like Allen quite a bit as well and there is alot of opportunity for playing time in San Diego.

    If nflfan picks sink I can make my own selections.

     

    I agree, Hopkins has a lot of potential, I'm not knocking your selection at all. Hopkins was a good pick.

     

    My point is leading up to the draft, there were quite a few of us who were higher on Allen than on Hopkins. It was only after Allen fell to the 3rd round that some of us began to I suppose think less of him. I still think both Allen and Hopkins will be very good NFL WRs.

  6. That Allen pick could be a true steal.

     

    Its funny, had we done this mock prior to the real life 2013 draft, there are quite a few of us who would've chosen Allen over DeAndre Hopkins, who went at the beginning of round 11 in this mock. Yet, because Allen fell to third round in real life, I think it caused a lot of us to either forget about him or just be wary of selecting him.

     

    But I think Allen will be a very good WR for the Chargers. Injury concerns aside, he'll develop into a very nice intermediate/over-the-middle weapon for Phillip Rivers.

  7. Hmmm Sherrod is kind of a head scratcher to me I would be interested to hear what free agent saw in him?

    With few quality tackles left, i honestly just like his youth and potential. He has been plagued by injury since he was drafted, but when he has been on the field he has shown some bright spots. Plus hes versatile enough to play either right or left tackle.
