Our guy Jimmy from Riptown Media fed us some of the following odds (none including the Redskins).
1. Who will St. Louis draft with the second pick?
Chris Long, DE, Virginia: 11-10
Glenn Dorsey, DT, LSU: 4-5
Everybody else: 7-2
My take: Now that Jake Long is off the board, Chris Long is the best choice given the Rams' needs.
2. Who will the Atlanta Falcons select with the #3 pick in the NFL Draft?
Matt Ryan: 5/6
Glenn Dorsey: Even
Chris Long: 9/2
Vernon Gholston: 10/1
Field: 4/1
My take: Ryan would be the smart choice but currently the Falcons think Chris Redman/Joey Harrington is the smart choice.
3. Who will the Oakland Raiders select with the #4 pick In the NFL Draft?
Darren McFadden: 2/3
Chris Long: 4/1
Glenn Dorsey: 6/1
Vernon Gholston: 7/2
Field: 3/1
My take: Al Davis runs the Raiders draft room, which means predicting anything is meaningless.
4. Will the New England Patriots keep or trade the #7 overall pick?
Trade Up: 7/2
Keep: 2/3
Trade Down: 13/10
My take: If Long/Ghoslton are gone, the Pats try to trade down because this is a team that loathes high salaries (except for Brady).
5. Who will be the second QB drafted?
Brian Brohm: 5/9
Chad Henne: 9/5
Joe Flacco: 5/2
Other: 6/1
My take: I'll go with a team trading into the late first round to take Brohm.
6. What round will the Eagles draft their first WR?
Round 1: 7/5
Round 2: Even
Round 3: 4/1
Round 4: 9/2
Other : 5/1
My take: Round 2. In the first round, they should take a safety.
7. The Dallas Cowboys first 1st round pick will be?
Running Back: 5/6
Wide Receiver : Even
Cornerback: 3/2
Any other position: 2/1
My take: A running back is obvious. But if Felix Jones is gone, who knows? Read my mock draft in Friday's paper.
