********. Why do we need a SS. We have Adrian Wilson...

 

[Buckybird]

just goes to show u how many Cards games the media pays attention to.
O-line is definately this teams major hole, not the fourth need to get this
team to the playoffs. What a joke. Our SS should right now be setting on the
beach in Hawaii!!!

 

[Stout]

Wow, there are TWO Tamba Hali's in the draft? And Wroten will go 24 overall? This mock is stooo-pid!!!

 

[JeffGollin]

Top five needs: SS, RB, QB, WLB, OT
Strongly disagree. I view are top five needs as being: OL, OL, NT, QB, RB. Further, that our activity in free agency could considerably change our priority of needs.

 

[BigRedFan]

I think our QBs are still serviceable, so Id put this outside the top 5 needs. I wouldnt go out of our way to get one, only if the time and place is right.

What an odd little mock draft. With Ken Hamlin returning next season and having Boulware at SS, there's no chance that the Seahawks draft a safety, or that that's a need.

I'm really not sure that LenDale White is a Top 15 pick. Remember that 3 RBs going in the Top 10 is the exception to the rule, not the standard. Is White that much better a prospect than Stephen Jackson was two years ago? Didn't he go 23rd overall?

It seems to me that there may be only 5 elite prospects in this draft. Any pick between 6 and 15 or 18 is the second-tier.

Actually, five ELITE players isn't too far off the mark.

[Shane]

How and the hell is SS one of our top 5 needs?

 

[duckfallas]

About the worst mock I've seen yet. I would if the Cards picked Cutler with the 10th pick. Green won't be that stupid.

 

[Redrage]

Amazing the difference in projections for Young. He's the biggest mystery of the first round. Mj and Dickley were saying that some of the luster has worn off Young.

We shall see.

 

[Ed Burmila]

I got a huge kick out of this. I figured the Cutler bandwagon would enjoy it, but all you need to do is read one line down and see that SS is the Cards' biggest need.....

The large majority of these picks don't make sense. Scouts, Inc are pretty consistent in their talent evaluation, but their mock drafts flat-out suck. I'm not sure that they watch any NFL games at all.
