2 (48) - Mardy Gilyard, WR, Cincinatti
3 (78) - Lamarr Houston, DT, Texas
4 (112) - Ed Wang, OT, Va Tech
6 (175) - Dan LeFevour, QB, Central Michigan
6 (202) - Willie Young, DE, NC State
6 (204) - T.J. Ward, SS, Oregon
7 (223) - Reggie Stephens, G, Iowa State
7 (249) - Seyi Ajirotutu, WR, Fresno State

I'd be pretty happy with this draft.

Thoughts?

I'd take that too...

Gilyard and Houston could compete to start immediately, and Wang, Ward, LeFevour, and Young could all be great values for the future...

Not the flashiest draft but unlike other mocks I've seen there really is no reaches. My only problem is that there are no LBers in this mock. I think that a LB would make more sence in the 4th but I don't know who else was available.

For someone who harps on our LB needs as much as I do, you would think I would have caught this...

Replace Wang with a LB in the 4th...

I was watching a competition on ESPN last night were several top college prospects went through drills similar to the NFL QB competition. Gilyard only caught 2 of 5 passes.

i think we take a DB high.
special teams contributor and build the playmaking secondary ron meeks wants. couple that with the richard marshall factor... my prediction: trade for a good Corner prospect.

I'm not sold on Gilyard, but I love the rest of it.

I like that they took Willie Young. He's a good late round prospect. He'd be worth a 6th.

I really think we need to find immediate help to replace peppers. Trade for Osi or trade to the top of the second for griffin. I don't know if I'd want to take dunlap in the 2nd but he has potential.

We've made the playoffs without a #2 reciever or a bluechip DT. We really need to replace the pressure and double teams that peppers generated. I'm not saying we should go after a WR or DT, but DE should be priority.
