I usually don't do this for things like mock drafts and such, but this was well-written.....not something like john2jer would whip up in 5 minutes.....

Good breakdown for sure and I would be more than happy with the draft ending up like this .

Does lack the humor j2j would have blended into it tho. lol

Haha, thanks Klomp. I made a passing comment in the draft thread about the post, but I'm just glad many people are enjoying the work I put into it.

Casper - I know you say in your system it is allowable to pick down a tier. In your analysis, is there enough differential between Wall and Turner that you think picking Turner at #1 overall would be nuts?

Ya know, I try to be a nice guy, and then unprovoked the Klompinator drops the gloves.

I'm efficient. I don't need a ton of time to crank out perfection. Thanks Howler, I appreciate the support. Although I'm sure you're really just trying to get in my pants. Talk to Kraphead on that, rumor has it he likes when guys check his oil.

I liked the mock, though. Pretty much Evan Turner and anything that's not dead would make me happy. Cousins vs Favors will be an interesting debate. Favors fits Nellie ball MUCH better than Cousins, but Nellie's likely out soon, so there could/should a shift in philosophies.

Shameful the way you try to disguise these subliminal messages

Sorry J, I was going for just one random poster to choose, and yours was the first that fit.

I wouldn't do it personally, but I wouldn't be lambasting anyone for suggesting it hence the 1 tier separation.
