If the draft fell that way I would literally mess my drawers. But, it's not realistic. But, nice eye for talent.
OK then lets drop the trade down thing. Here is what I would do.
1-Jared Odrick DT
2-Chad Jones FS
3-Jon Asamoah OG
4-Alterreaun Verner CB
5-J.D. Walton C
6-Junior Galette OLB
7-Keiland Williams RB
Now let look at yours...
1) Earl Thomas-FS
2) Patrick Robinson-DB-----wont last past pick 40 in second round
3) Toby Gerhart-RB--------as much as I like Gerhart dont we already have one of these already? See: Rashard Mendenhall
4) Torrell Troup-NT
5) Matt Tennant-C-------I think my center is better than this guy..ask Suh and McCoy
5b) Myron Rolle-SS-------probably will pursue a medical career with his Rhode Scholar
6) Mike Neal-DT
7) Jake Ballard-TE--------No more frickin TE's please. How many do we need?
Other than that....not bad Shawnie.

Of course this would require a trade down. I think Odrick could be available between 20-28 of the first round. I’d like to acquire another 2nd round to accomplish this mock draft. But it’s all fantasy anyways.
1-Jared Ordick DT (if you like Aaron Smith—then you’ll love this guy)
2-Sean Weatherspoon LB (maybe not the most ideal spot for him inside but he is a great football player who will be on the field every 3 downs)
2-Chad Jones FS (great size,above average speed, and a truck load of athleticism—oh and he can make plays on the ball—could play either safety spot—returner as well)
3-Jon Asamoah OG (second best guard in this draft—a tenacious run blocker, very strong)
4-Alteraun Verner CB (maybe not the best overall skill set..but I don’t think there is a CB in this draft who breaks on the ball better than Verner—a 4 year starter at UCLA 13 career picks and he’ll come up and tackle too—12 career tackles for loss)
5- J.D. Walton C (Held both Ndamakung Suh and Gerald McCoy to 3 tackles each)
6-Junior Galette OLB (Sleeper—speed/edge rusher who has the prototypical size for a 3-4 OLB)
7-Jonathan Crompton QB ( not that we need a Qb..I just wanna see signs in Heinz that read..”Straight out of Crompton” )
I would be ok with the first 3 picks....not thrilled with the rest....I really like Jones at FS....however I think we need a corner more...would also like to see an OL before another DE...but would be ok with those first 3 picks.

Curious- in your mock- what are the Vikes trading UP for?

I could see a couple of scenarios developing for a team that thinks they are ready to win a SB now....feeling they need a certain player.....maybe a Brandon Spikes....an Earl Thomas....or maybe a QB drops and they want to draft Favres replacement.

If Weatherspoon lasts until our 2nd round pick I will reach through this screen and pinch your nipples in excitement!!! [/quote:83w0t5hr]
He wont..but he should be available early to mid second round and hopefully we can find a partner who is willing to trade up in the first round.
These teams all have multiple second round picks...
2nd round
Kansas City has a #2 from Atlanta (TE Tony Gonzales)
New England has a #2 from Jacksonville (2009 draft trade)
New England has a #2 from Tennessee (2009 draft trade)
Tampa Bay has a #2 pick from Chicago (DE Gaines Adams)[/quote:83w0t5hr]
He is positioned right now as a late first with his play on film and the Senior Bowl. After the combine...When he runs in the mid 4.5's, is near the tops in the shuttle & cone times for LBs, looks fluid in his postion drills, and throws up almost 30 reps of 225....I project him to a mid first. We will see.[/quote:83w0t5hr]
I was off on the bench. But...Stronger than I thought is a good thing. WOW!
