Cardinal Tough: The Decisions

[Seandonic]

8/10!, Seadonic! You get one more try! Or you can hold---this may be the winning score.

I don't think you should have given people two tries or posted their score. Now people will just use my superior insight into how your mind works against me.

You've got that right! But everyone only gets two tries...so the first one to go 10/10 wins. You are very close. Go for it. Finish the deal. See if you've got me for every pick.

7/10, Reddog! You get one more try. Go for it.

 

[Reddog]

OK last chance. It is tough getting into your head. I am going with Wright even though it might be high for him.

11. Kerrigan OLB
38. Cobb WR
69. Wright CB
73. Vereen RB
103. Fua NT
105. Foster ILB
136. McElroy QB
171. Klug DE
184. Dominguez T
249. Beeler C

 

[Cardiac]

Kerrigan OLB If this isn't your pick then you cheat
Cobb WR
Moch SS/OLB
Vereen RB
Legefed S
Foster ILB
McElroy QB
Klug DE
Locke RB
Beeler C

My last shot.

 

[Stout]

Using Mitch's own round/tough criteria but not his selections, here is how I would draft here:

11. Kerrigan OLB
38. Kaepernick QB
69. Green TE
73. Carpenter T
103. Sheppard ILB
105. Wisnewski C
136. Fua NT
171. Klug DE
184. Herzlich OLB
249. Locke RB

Thoughts: Finally a TE. Great QB for the future. Defense front 7 heavily addressed. Good pieces for O-Line. I really see Kaepernick and Sheppard as good values.

No way Wisniewski makes it out of the 2nd round. Stout's Lock of the Draft #2. He certainly won't make it to 105.

i have a feeling the guys you are missing is DJ Williams from Arkansas.

 

[Mitch]

Kerrigan OLB If this isn't your pick then you cheat
Cobb WR
Moch SS/OLB
Vereen RB
Legefed S
Foster ILB
McElroy QB
Klug DE
Locke RB
Beeler C

My last shot.

Oh so close! 8/10!

 

[Cbus cardsfan]

Kerrigan OLB If this isn't your pick then you cheat
Cobb WR
Moch SS/OLB
Vereen RB
Legefed S
Foster ILB
McElroy QB
Klug DE
Locke RB
Beeler C

My last shot.

Replace Moch and Vereen with DJ Williams and an OL, maybe Gilbert of Carpenter.

 

[Buckybird]

Oh so close! 8/10!

How about my 2nd shot?

 

[Mitch]

How about my 2nd shot?

9/10, Bucky!You are now in the lead!

 

[Buckybird]

9/10, Bucky!You are now in the lead!

Wooohoooo!!!

All the answers are C. C for Cardinals.

9/10! (I took Boling at #73---the rest are correct). Because you had the most correct on your first and second try---you are the winner, Seadonic!

Go to the Cardinals' team shop---pick out the t-shirt you want---PM me the details on the short (order number), your size and your address---and I will have it mailed to you.

11. Kerrigan---relentless motor---sets strong side edge. Epitome of tough.
38. Cobb---amazingly clutch on 3rd downs, super tough over the middle.
69. Moch---speedy, tough blitzer from the edge or up the middle.
73. Boling---most physical and tough o-lineman in the draft.
103. Fua---tough NT who has an uncanny nose for the ball.
105. Foster---active feet forward and laterally, tough tackler, finisher.
136. McElroy---super tough mentally, knows what it takes to win.
171. Klug---great motor, tough competitor.
184. Locke---speedy, elusive RB...plays tough for his size.
249. Beeler---tough-minded anchor at C, plays with excellent technique.

I apologize Bucky. But, I think I read it before you edited it because I remember at the time that you had one incorrect. But, I must have read it wrong, so I declare you and Seadonic the co-winners and I will have the Cardinals' Pro Shop mail you the t-shirt of your choice---PM me the shirt number, size and your address---and, as always, wear it with pride, my friend!

 

[Buckybird]

Lol that's funny before the combine kerrigan was said to be a late first or 2nd round pick what a stiff

and just 6 months ago Gabbert & Newton were probably 3rd rounders

Actually...jerseyred...following the season I read several mocks where Kerrigan was projected to go to SF with the #7 pick. And if you watch more of him, I guarantee you, you won't think he's a stiff. Did you tape the Senior Bowl?---if so take a good look at him there. There's one play where he gets double teamed by the TE and the T and throws the TE away like a ragdoll and blows right through the tackle for a bonecrushing sack. Check it out.

35 1/2 career sacks (12 1/2 last year)...26 tackles for loss last year...14 career forced fumbles (tied for NCAA Div. 1 record)...while playing in the Big Ten. Three straiight years of superior play....not a mere one year like Quinn and Bowers.

When you read the mocks today...and he's projected to go in the teens to Jacksonville or San Diego...what they say about him every time is" "with Kerrigan you know what you are getting, a high character player with a relentless motor...compares to Aaron Kampman and Jared Allen.

I actually think he compares intensity-wise more to Chris Long...especially because they both play the strong side. Chris Long was a top five pick---and is now one of the major reasons why the Rams are in every game and starting to build a playoff caliber defense and team.

You wouldn't have got that score if you hadn't seen my original 8 out of 10 score anyway.

But seriously...before I joined this board I would come on here and just read post. And the ones I seemed to enjoy the most were by Shane, you (Bucky), and Mitch. Therefore, I am pleased and quite frankly, honored that in a fun little contest put on by Mitch, it would come down to you and I. Where you at Shane?

BTW: 4/10 matches for the t-shirt. You get another try.[/quote]

I'm never critical of anyones mock drafts...it is strictly opinion and that ain't my bag. I will say however that in reviewing the PFW ratings I really disagree with a number of the judgments on the list and some glaring errors of omissions...more importantly congrats on the toaster...do bagels fit in with ease?? The fact is one of the biggest wastes are toaster ovens...they don't make much sense and take up a lot of room.

 

[D-Dogg]

Andy Dalton, TCU (2A)
Christian Ponder, Florida St. (2B)
Colin Kaepernick, Nevada (3A)

I would take any of these three.
