    Guy -- Only problem is, you draft people, not percentages.

    Sloww -- Your company would have an oppty to test and train you and judge whether you have the aptitude before sending you out there. They can maximize the chance of success at the next level (earth-mover). Can't do that with NFL rookies.

      Here are my Totall Goofy Predictions for the top 10 picks tomorrow...

      1. Oakland -- JaMarcus Russell, QB
      2. ATLANTA trades up and takes Calvin Johnson, WR
      3. Cleveland -- Adrian Peterson, RB.
      4. Tampa Bay -- Gaines Adams, DE
      5. Arizona -- Joe Thomas, OT
      6. MIAMI -- trades up to get Brady Quinn, QB
      7. Minnesota -- LaRon Landry, S
      8. DENVER (from Houston, via Atlanta) -- Patrick Willis, LB
      9. WASHINGTON (from Miami) -- Amobi Okoye, DT
      10. DETROIT (from Denver, via Houston, originally Atlanta) -- Leon Hall, CB (plus several extra picks)

      Yes, I'm predicting Detroit will have an awesome draft, getting the best CB (to replace Bly), plus about 3 extra first-day picks.

      Of course, they'll still go 5-11, but hey, it'll be an improvement.

          Who's going to throw to Johnson? Vick, for what he's worth, will probably be in jail or suspended.

            Hey Ming, I get the impression this is where all draft weekend discussion is going to take place. Thread title change?

              What will screw with the draft is if Oakland takes Johnson. That's another way to make it interesting.

                        Anybody who passes up on Quinn is going to rue the day. Mark my words.
                        I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

                            JaMarcus Russell is taken by Oakland to start the fun.

                            Now it's up to Detroit
