BTW, how far does the QB usually stand from the line in a shotgun formation? | ||

2) Every year, we hear like 20k experts talking about mock drafts for months and see every tape of every movement in every speed possible mixed with opinions from the players coaches, family, friends etc. And in the end they still draft JaMarcus Russell, Brady Quinn, VY etc. I seriously think that the whole pre-draft procedure seems a little error-prone (I mean, chances seem to be less than 50 % that you are right about someones ability to play in the NFL, even with extensive scouting). So we will see if this years class is good or not in 5 years. I couldnt judge it now. 3) No. Being a bears fan myself, no. No. | ||

BTW, how far does the QB usually stand from the line in a shotgun formation? QBs usually stand 5-7 yards back from the Center. In regards to the kickoff change, I guess the league decided that they don't want as many injuries from tacking/via wedges, and by moving the lines, there will be more touchbacks. Of course, this hurts teams where their returning is an asset, like the Bears. | ||

As for the Rams and every other team in the NFC West, it's either we'll be an okay division at best or the one holding the crown is in danger of having a losing record potentially worse than 7-9. | ||

Dude, I watched the one that he did with Jake Locker, and it was INCREDIBLY awkward. You could feel it through the TV. I wonder what Gruden is like off camera lol. Also, I find it hilarious that Mallet's stock is dropping at an insane rate. The latest scandal is leaving a pro day at Carolina because he was "sick." lolol | ||

Judge ends lockout; owners to appeal http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=6424084 Given this result, I don't think we will miss a game next season (regular or preseason). | ||

He's widely regarded as the best talent in the draft. I just can't see him slipping that far, no matter how QB or DL needy the top 5 teams are. | ||

A new Patrick is coming to town! | ||

my mock 2.0 1. carolina - cam newton (obvious choice, carolina never has had a 'face' for the franchise, i think newton will be it) 2. denver - marcell dareus (need new dt's for fox's defense. von miller is also another possibility as the defensive line class is pretty deep this year (could possibly get someone like muhammad wilkerson in the second)). 3. bills - von miller (too hard to pass up on such a talent. could also possibly go with peterson, but i think gailey likes miller). 4. bengals - aj green (chad and terrell gone, this one is a no brainer). 5. cardinals - patrick peterson (definitely won't go past them here, most talented player imo in the draft, dual threat in defense and special teams) 6. cleveland - julio jones (mocked quinn here before, but as said above, the d-line class is deep, can't pass up on such a good receiver, shurmur is offensive-minded and jones seems to fit their offense to go help mccoy). 7. 49ers - blaine gabbert (despite smith possibly coming back, i think gabbert will be harbaugh's franchise qb. he's no andrew luck but he will do fine.). 8. titans - nick fairley (while the titans need a qb, it would be a huge reach to go for someone like locker or malett at this spot. they will most likely trade up in the late first to get their guy, whoever it is. fairley is the most logical choice here). 9. cowboys - tyron smith (apparently the cowboys don't like amukamara, but it could be a smokescreen. i might as well mock tyron smith here, the best o-line in the draft, enormous amount of potential). 10. washington - robert quinn (with jones gone, quinn is the best player on the board). | ||
