2009 SB Nation Mock Draft

by Tim on Mar 27, 2009 6:24 PM CDT in News

As longtime readers of BRB and other SB Nation blogs know, the NFL bloggers get together every year to do a league-wide mock draft. The rules of the draft change year to year (e.g., we were able to make trades in 2007; we can't this year), but the goal remains the same: To give the readers a mock draft run by diehard fans of each team. Fans who follow the team closely enough to be positioned to have a clue as to what their team would do. Many mocks are done by a single person. This mock is done by thirty-two (32) representatives or teams of representatives. In other words, we like to think we keep the guessing as educated as possible.

The picks are being entered over at our site for all things NFL Draft, the aptly named Mocking The Draft. This year's edition is a two-round draft. No trades. Three (3) picks are made per day, and there is roughly a two (2) day lag between the pick being made and it getting posted on MTD.

Thus, I can tell you that we've made our first-round selection on behalf of your Houston Texans, but it won't be up for public consumption for another day or so. In the meantime, head on over to Mocking The Draft and see what's already happened. Any surprises? Let us know what you think here, as well as over there.

Possibilities

I guess you made your pick….don’t know who came off the board in picks 10-12, but if Jenkins is available please tell me you snagged him…i’m assuming the Saints went with Jenkins, the Redskins went with Michael Johnson, and considering there are no trades, I’d have to assume Cushing is our top LB/CB on the board at this point and that’s who you went with……

I Think

You’re going to be very surprised by what the teams ahead of us did.

Looking forward to a day when being a Texans fan doesn't mean that April is the highlight of my season...

Oddly....

I find it very fitting that the Bengals went ahead and selected Andre “my shit jiggles” Smith with the 6th pick. It’s awesome that not only are character issues not a problem for them when selecting, but they passed on Oher to pick the lesser candidate.

So you're saying that now I have to think of some witty Sig that will be applicable across all the SBN sites? Go Texan Horn Stros!

I know they need one, and it would make sense to everyone if they took one in the 1st round, but when has NE ever done what anyone thought they would do? I haven’t heard anything about any surefire CBs in this year’s draft, although since we don’t need one I haven’t really paid attention.
