I’m going to be the first to admit that I’m just not enough up to speed on everything to even try to do a mock draft; once you get past the second round, everyone is just a bunch of names and it’s hard to get real information on these guys. I really respect you guys who have the time, energy and passion to pay attention to who those guys are. To me they’re just a bunch of guys.

That said, I’m going to make a prediction where I do feel more comfortable: Not who, but what.

We have 9 picks in the draft. I’m going to predict that, after trades, we pick 8 players. In no particular order:

  • 2 OL
  • 2 DL
  • 1 RB
  • 1 WR
  • 1 S
  • 1 CB

My least comfortable spot is the CB — I really want to say KR but that’s not technically a position. So I am taking this gamble — with no education, just a gut feeling — that the guy we draft as a return specialist will be a CB. But that one, I’ll grant, could also be a WR. And that said, there’s need to get a young CB in there to guard against the fact that we could lose Paymah and Foxworth at the same time.

What do you think. Should we have a pool?
