Half of me brings this to your attention because I feel my reader(s) might still be interested in the hundreds of Mock Draft predictions floating out on the Intertubewebnets. The other half of me just wants to applaud Gary Fitzgerald for his lighter though well-written Mock Draft Expose at the Official Site. I often times find myself glazing over the Analysis at Redskins.com because it is cheerleaderish and I can just read my own horribly written garbage -- which is twice as cheerleaderish and unedited. However, that might change as I've noticed a marked improvement in both the writing generally and the now present attitude/wit. It all sounds a bit more Bloggish to me, and I like that. But don't take my word for it; go see for yourself.

In any event, no big surprises. The only three players anyone thinks we'll draft are Gaines Adams or else Alan Branch or else Jamaal Anderson. Some boards have Adams ahead of Anderson, some boards have Anderson ahead of Adams, some boards have us taking whichever of these three remain at #6, etc. As far as I can tell Michigan CB Leon Hall is the only other person who even gets mentioned, those he's a stretch at #6.

Fitzgerald earns brownie points for his cynical take on Mock Draft "experts", a sentiment I find persuasive. For instance (emphasis all mine):

At least Hogs Haven reader(s) cannot be accused of lacking Mock Draft creativity. You took the road less traveled and voted to Trade Down.
