important:
if you don't do anything else, at least check this link. Replace the 24 with the number of your team's original pick, and you'll see a list of mocks and which player and position they had your team take combined on a single page. It doesn't work if you trade your pick, since both your needs and your draft slot change. It can still give you a good idea of your needs though:

24 is bengals, replace with 20 for chiefs, 32 for steelers etc.

After trading down 3 spots, the Raiders watched helplessly as all three guys they wanted flew off the board. Forced to delve deeper into the player pool, Ernie Sims seems like a great fit. He's fast, and a great athlete, although a bit of a project. Michael Huff and Brodrick Bunkley recieved serious consideration, but neither brings the Raider Mystique like Sims will. All in all, Al Davis should be satisfied. And if he isn't, you won't be hearing from me in round two...or ever again.

[That Guy]

As the Eagles, I took Chad Jackson as they look to fill TO's shoes with a playmaker which they sorely need right now. They also desperately need linebackers, and if Ernie Sims was also available I would have considered him too. Though traditionally, LB is not a position the Eagles pour a lot of resources into. They typically seem content to try to pair a strong secondary with a deep defensive line, and then just get average LBs with some speed. They have shown a tendency to draft WRs in the first round in the recent past (Freddie Mitchell, and then Reggie Brown just last year). They did sign Jabar Gaffney to pair with Reggie Brown and Todd Pinkston, but at this point I think Andy Reid knows that a playmaker would make a big difference for the Eagles.

Winston Justice would also be an attractive option for the Eagles if he falls to them. Runyan and Tra Thomas are both cemented at the T spots for now, but in the past the Eagles have not been afraid to spend early picks on depth, allowing the young guys to grow into their roles (Lito Shepperd and Sheldon Brown were both drafted while Bobby Taylor and Troy Vincent were still starters).

i read where tra thomas might retire due to an on going back problem(sorry,no link)

I was torn when I saw that the Eagles had taken Chad Jackson, I really feel that Denver will still get him, but if they dont I think that they will go after DeAngelo Williams. Everyone knows that Shanahan likes his RB's, and with the departure of M. Anderson and the slow development of T. Bell I think that Shanahan will take Williams. I seriously considered S. Holmes from OSU, but I think that he may slide down and if not I think that Denver can get a decent WR in the 2nd round. Also, from what I have researched about Williams, he sounds like a back in which the system will amplify his talents, much like that of Clinton Portis...

8588, TAF Clayjaworhogtensen here with WPSN (Warpath Sports Network). Considering the success Shanahan has had with running backs in the later rounds why did you guys decide to draft a back so high in the draft this time?

...I'm going to need some more "reporters" for the all-new WPSN's mock draft coverage. BrudLee, I'm looking your way
