A little pre-draft fun

Got a little idea for some fun. Let's use the RealGM mock and make our own Falcons picks for the first three round. We can bebate who's is the most interesting and then compare our choices to the actual draft (trades not with-standing).

Here's the RealGM mock link

My picks follow.

#3: Dorsey DT
#34: Brohm QB
#35: Cherilus OT
#48: Cason CB
#68: Scheuning OG
#98: Best SS or ILB left on the board

i don't think CB is a major need, unless Cromartie some how drops to the 2nd round.

wouldn't mind taking 3-4 OL

i would also like to see a TE taken in the 2nd or 3rd.

I agree 100% with your first three picks.

I'd also like us to draft Carlson after that.

How is CB not a major need? Have you seen our CBs? We have 5 CBs on the roster and as of right now all 5 suck.

If you're going to have a bad secondary, you mine as well have the worst!

I'm stuck between the Dorey/Ellis route in my first post and this other possibility;

#3: Ryan QB
#34: Smith CB/S
#35: Loften ILB
#48: Rachal OG
#68: Harrison DT
#98: Hills OT

I'm starting to think that Ryan might really be a top QB prospect. The thing is, in my second draft, I think we're trading up in QB (most important position), yet the rest of the draft is nearly as good.

Dorsey would be great, but Harrison looks real good too.

I'm going to have a tough decision as the draft approaches.

Here it is:

Long OT

Sims DT

Mayo ILB

King CB

Rachal OG

Zbikowski SS

Richardson OT

Rucker TE

I think all seven of these guy could come in as either starters or contributors. Wait till next year for the QB. It should be a good draft for QB's and we'll have a nice pick to work with.
