Talk Sports Mock Draft: 10. Arizona Cardinals *ON THE CLOCK*

abailey3313 · 04-22-2006, 01:54 PM

ESPN is letting their fans vote on each team's draft selection in the first round of the upcoming NFL draft, and I thought it'd be a cool idea to put here in Talk Sports.

Right now, only the first 10 selections are scheduled to be done. However, I will continue doing this right up until draft day. (Polls cannot be closed after less than 24 hours, meaning each pick will take one day. From now on, I will reserve the right to close a poll in the event of lopsided voting. A 20-vote lead is considered the mercy rule, but if it seems over before that, I may throw the white flag earlier.)

For each team posted, the poll will be open for 24 hours. At the end of that 24-hour span, the player with the most votes is that team's selection. Please vote based on what player you would select if you were that particular team.

===
1. Houston Texans - RB Reggie Bush, USC
2. New Orleans Saints - OT D'Brickashaw Ferguson, Virginia
3. Tennessee Titans - QB Matt Leinart, USC
4. New York Jets - DE Mario Williams, NC State
5. Green Bay Packers - LB AJ Hawk, Ohio State
6. San Francisco 49ers - TE Vernon Davis, Maryland
7. Oakland Raiders - QB Vince Young, Texas
8. Buffalo Bills - CB/S Michael Huff, Texas
9. Detroit Lions - QB Jay Cutler, Vanderbilt
10. Arizona Cardinals *ON THE CLOCK*
===

The draft board will be updated in each new thread following the closing of the poll.

There is no "trade the pick" option!

The purpose of this exercise is to create Talk Sports' mock draft. Regardless of speculation, how likely, or how smart it would be for a team to trade a draft pick -- that is not an option. We are going by the current, official draft order.

I am thinking they should trade down to add more help!

If they can't grab Young or Cutler, I think Williams would be a wonderful fit in the defense.

I dont think the Bills and Lions picks are accurate to their situation. I doubt Winston Justice will last to numero 10. But for the sake of the board...Winston will go to the Cardinals as the best player available

They invested a lot of money in Edgerrin James and I'm pretty sure they want Kurt Warner to stay healthy, especially with unproven John Navarre as his back-up. And their offensive line, as it stands, is terrible.

The pick here is Justice.

Let's just use the mercy rule and let them have Justice. I think it's a good fit.
