PrintWelcome to the 2009 Draft! Live from some satellite of New Orleans spun off into the depths of the North Carolina mountains! I'm your host, MtnExile, because Saintsational Dave is busy doing some wedding stuff involving mourning for his lost freedom, or something along those lines. Anyway, this is enough introduction.
Here's what we're gonna do. Below is a table showing the current draft order of the first round, with the players assigned to each team in the Canal Street Chronicles Mock Draft. We're going to update each choice with the real selection, as it's made, giving everyone the chance to mock...us.
Plus, you can talk about other stuff by adding a comment. Just like normal. You can probably tell I've never hosted one of these events before. I can hear stujo going, GAAAAAA!!!

With the 1st pick in the draft, the Detroit Lions choose... So the Lions actually pulled the trigger on Stafford. This is going to send ripples through the entire CSC mock. On the other hand, it may be good news for the Lions. Little known fact: when Bobby Layne was traded to Pittsburgh, he said Detroit wouldn't have a winner for another fifty years. People now consider it a pretty effective curse. Well, it's been fifty years. Can Stafford be the second coming of Layne? Maybe...considering that they both came out of Highland Park High in Texas. |
|
|
Predicted CSC Mock Draft pick: Jason Smith |
||
|
|
||
|
With the 2nd pick in the draft, the St. Louis Rams choose... Smith didn't drop very far, did he? The CSC Mock Draft, however, continues to sink. |
|
|
Predicted CSC Mock Draft pick: Michael Crabtree |
||
|
|
||
|
With the 3rd pick in the draft, the Kansas City Chiefs choose... Well well well. Keyshawn Johnson was right: the Bill Parcells philosophy of building a team from the inside out, starting with the line, prevails under new GM Scott Pioli. |
|
|
Predicted CSC Mock Draft pick: Aaron Curry |
||
|
|
||
|
With the 4th pick in the draft, the Seattle Seahawks choose... The replacement for Julian Peterson, and also for Eugene Monroe, making us 0-4. |
|
|
Predicted CSC Mock Draft pick: Eugene Monroe |
||
|
|
||
|
With the 5th pick in the draft, the New York Jets choose... The new savior in New York. Personally, I think this is a great move. |
|
|
Predicted CSC Mock Draft pick: Brian Orakpo |
||
|
|
||
|
With the 6th pick in the draft, the Cincinnati Bengals choose... Typical of Cincinnati to take the worst of the bunch. Oh well...let the name of B.J Raji be stricken from all obelisks and monuments... |
|
|
Predicted CSC Mock Draft pick: B.J. Raji |
||
|
|
||
|
With the 7th pick in the draft, the Oakland Raiders choose... Al Davis takes the fastest receiver. Wow. Big surprise. Where's the "tongue firmly in cheek" icon? |
|
|
Predicted CSC Mock Draft pick: Michael Oher |
||
|
|
||
|
With the 8th pick in the draft, the Jacksonville Jaguars choose... We almost had a chance to get half a check if they'd just picked a wide receiver. But hell...can't argue with this kind of pick. |
|
|
Predicted CSC Mock Draft pick: Percy Harvin |
||
|
|
||
|
With the 9th pick in the draft, the Green Bay Packers choose... Well, they needed a 3-4 nose tackle as much as an outside rusher. Another X. |
|
|
Predicted CSC Mock Draft pick: Everette Brown |
||
|
|
||
|
With the 10th pick in the draft, the San Francisco 49ers choose... Wow! We got the position right! |

|

Predicted CSC Mock Draft pick: Josh Freeman |
||
|
|
||
|
With the 21st pick in the draft, the Cleveland Browns choose... Wow! After all that, they reach for Alex Mack. Oh well...he's a good center. Cleveland, by the way, is doing exactly what I had hoped we would do: they're stockpiling picks galore. |
|
|
Predicted CSC Mock Draft pick: Knowshon Moreno |
||
|
|
||
|
With the 22nd pick in the draft, the Minnesota Vikings choose... A lot of drugs going around in the war rooms today. |

||
|
|

Predicted CSC Mock Draft pick: Evander Hood |
||
|
|

|
|
Predicted CSC Mock Draft pick: Brandon Pettigrew |
||
|
|
||
|
With the 29th pick in the draft, the New York Giants choose... We got the position right. I don't have a half-a-check graphic, though. |

nice styling
I don’t see Sanchez going at No. 17 anymore, but he may still go to the Jets
Being a Saints fan will take years off your life
The Stafford Pick
Screwed the order.
Plus, this is what teams would do if they are “smart.”
We know teams like the Jets… are not.
The day has finally arrived!
Hello all! I hope we are all happy when day is done. Anyone else watching the Hornets game? I can’t believe they gave up the lead like they did. 17 seconds left and they’re in jeopardy of losing it and going to 0-3 in the series. GAAAA!
Go Saints!!!! Deuce may be gone, but he will never be forgotten.
by David "Satch" Kelly on Apr 25, 2009 2:50 PM CDT reply actions
No, not watching it
but ESPN was updating it, and the Hornets had to wrestle the lead away from Denver. I thought they were pulling away…how’d they collapse?
Bah!
I don't know what happened
They were up by about 10, then I went into the kitchen and later came out to see they were only up by 1. Well, they won anyway by 2 point. The series is now 2-1 in Denver’s favor.
Go Saints!!!! Deuce may be gone, but he will never be forgotten.

Chris Mortensen
just said that Atlanta may be trying to get Glenn Dorsey from Kansas City. THAT would be big news for us.
Bah!
What up guys?
I can’t wait for this to start…Sanchez will be a Top 5 pick. He’s the most “traditional” pick. I’m thinking we still are gonna pick up some defense. But who knows.
Don't worry I got your back cuz...
WOW! The Boo Birds really came out!
I’m thinking many Detroit fans aren’t happy. Oh well, Stafford is in good company I guess. Donovan McNabb was booed worse than that because the fans wanted Ricky Williams at the time. It shows how much the fans know. Imagine if Ditka had grabbed McNabb instead that day.
Go Saints!!!! Deuce may be gone, but he will never be forgotten.

Cushing instead of Jenkins....
Guess it says it all on the level of confidence Saints have toward Morgan
SB minus just a D above average.
My bad...
Thought the pick on this post where actually the real one….
SB minus just a D above average.
ESPN 360...
…doesn’t seem to be carrying the draft. Anyone have a link to coverage? I’m stuck @ school studying, thus no TV.
Well
Add another X. It’s Jason Smith now.
Jason Smith to the Rams
no surprise really.
Go Saints!!!! Deuce may be gone, but he will never be forgotten.
by David "Satch" Kelly on Apr 25, 2009 3:15 PM CDT reply actions
Yeah, I'm 2 for 2 also
I’ll probably be 2 for 30 after the first round though.
Go Saints!!!! Deuce may be gone, but he will never be forgotten.

Gruden was just too annoying.

I originally picked him and changed to Curry. GAAAA!

We may very well be the Lions of mock drafts
Well, probably not, but it’s pretty funny either way.
by Just Some Guy on Apr 25, 2009 3:29 PM CDT up reply actions
Has Dorsey ever played end?
For that matter, he’s never played 3-4 nose tackle, either. Maybe Pioli doesn’t think he can, and that’s what’s behind the Atlanta rumor.
Bah!
new coaching staff
bringing in changes
by Steve the fan on Apr 25, 2009 3:34 PM CDT up reply actions
is Vontae worth it?
I am big on character of players. Davis has some issues. But, I’ve seen a lot of other players like Ray Lewis and Randy Moss overcome bad reps. Can we give this kid the Deion Sanders treatment and get his **** squared away enough to be more of a asset than a distraction?
by Tigernut on Apr 25, 2009 3:29 PM CDT reply actions
M-E forgot the no profanity rule
No cussing, guys. Saintsational Dave is going to read this later and we’ll catch heck. You know. After he detoxes from NYSaint’s bachelor party for him.
Restore the wetlands!
Green Bay!
Lets hope B.J raj falls to the Packers so then hopfully Jenkins falls to us.
Curry to Seattle!

This is why women shouldn't watch this stuff.
All these big guys crying and hugging their mommas, saying they’re gonna buy their mommas a new house. It’s got me all misty eyed.
My guess
Since none of this is going against logic, Crabtree to Cleveland.
Er
All of this, sorry. I kind of whiffed my grammar there.
by Just Some Guy on Apr 25, 2009 3:38 PM CDT up reply actions
I think he'll bust
The guy only played 16 games in college and he’s being anointed as the next great QB just because he went to USC. I don’t buy it.
Go Saints!!!! Deuce may be gone, but he will never be forgotten.

Brian Cushing-LB- Texans Apr. 25 – 5:51 pm et
Texans selected USC linebacker Brian Cushing with the No. 15 overall pick in the 2009 Draft.
We thought he might slide further because we aren’t convinced he’ll be a playmaker, but the Texans clearly disagree. Cushing is a rock solid tackler who can take on blockers well and cover a tight end when asked. He’ll probably play strong-side linebacker, likely sending Zach Diles to the bench. Don’t expect huge tackle numbers.

Times-Pic take on Jenkins:
4:40 Mike Triplett: The newest Saint is Ohio State cornerback/safety Malcolm Jenkins. They just selected him with the 14th pick in the draft.
Finally, we can pretend like we actually know something around here. We penciled in Jenkins as the Saints’ pick back in mid-March and never wavered, even with all that running back talk. … Of course, it’s still possible that they had Knowshon Moreno rated higher, but I doubt it.
The best thing that ever happened to the Saints was Jenkins running a slightly slower-than-expected time at the NFL scouting combine. Back in January and February he was rated as one of the top five prospects in this draft.
He’s a bona fide playmaker and can be the best they’ve had in this secondary in a long time. Now we need to find out if he’s a cornerback or a safety. Either way, he’s a great fit.
Go Saints!!!! Deuce may be gone, but he will never be forgotten.

that Jenkins didn’t look at all surprised by the Saints picking him? I’ll bet it was a done deal days ago and he knew it already. Let’s just hope a contract has already been worked out and that there won’t be a holdout. I’m anxious for Williams to start molding him into the perfect CB/FS right away.

The NFL's on the clock!
rotoworld.com:
Bucs traded up with Cleveland to select Kansas State quarterback Josh Freeman with the No. 17 overall pick in the 2009 NFL Draft.
Freeman is a junior eligible that will take some time to develop, but he’s clearly now the Bucs’ quarterback of the future. Like new teammate Byron Leftwich, Freeman has long release and a huge arm. But Freeman is far more athletic and a threat to run. It will take Freeman time to learn how to read NFL defenses, so he should sit on the bench for a season. He is a boom-or-bust pick in real life and dynasty leagues.

freeman is a bust

Jeff thinks Jason David is as good as gone.
The pick also could spell the end of Jason David’s career in New Orleans. The veteran cornerback will have an uphill climb in training camp to make the final roster.
I disagree. Bring him into camp (if he agrees to less money) and let him compete. He may just be better in G-Dub’s scheme.

I also agree. Keep him around. I don’t understand why people don’t talk about turning David into a FS instead of Usama Young. OK, yeah, David is a short little shrimp but he can run pretty fast and all his skills are at being an instinctive cover-2 type zone player. Which to me sounds like the exact definition of a FS. Sure he’s “not big enough”… but then Bob Sanders is also “not big enough” and one of the best safeties in the league (when he’s healthy, of course).
Surely that would make more sense than continuing to play him at CB where’s he’s outright proved he does NOT belong?
David does have the most tackling experience in the secondary
having to bring down all thosee receivers after they catch the ball. an interesting thought for sure. safety/special teamer/nickel corner? maybe his contract doesn’t allow such spending at the position

We can’t afford to wait til next year. Drew is in his prime now, so let’s maybe trade only one or two at the most next-year picks to get someone in the 2nd or 3rd. If they do that, I agree that Payton will probably grab Jennings. He gave Williams the 1st pick and he’ll have to use any second pick on getting himself a new weapon to play with.

wowwwwww
mauauaualuga didn’t even go before james laurinatis. guess having a an ex-pro wrestler as a dad has its perks.
Here's the latest from times-pic/nola.com
6:43 p.m. Mike Triplett: Saints Coach Sean Payton is talking right now. He said the Saints did indeed try to move back into Round 1 with New England to get tailback Beanie Wells, and it would have cost them a first-rounder in 2010. But he said the talks didn’t “get far enough along.”
He also said the Saints are still working the phones to possibly move into Round 2. So don’t call it a night just yet.
And he echoed Jenkins by saying that the Saints see him as a cornerback, first and foremost, though they “obviously” appreciate his flexibility.
6:38 p.m. Mike Triplett: Just got off the phone with Malcolm Jenkins, and naturally there was a lot of talk about what position he’ll play in New Orleans.
He said the plan is for him to come in as a cornerback, but he’s open to moving to safety if that’s where he fits best.
“To be honest, I really don’t have a preference,” Jenkins said — the kind of answer that must have impressed the Saints leading up to the draft. “I can see myself playing corner and being a dominant corner and having success there. And I can see myself playing safety and doing the same thing.”
Jenkins said he spoke to Coach Sean Payton on the phone this afternoon, but he spent a lot of time with defensive coordinator Gregg Williams and secondary coach Dennis Allen leading up to the draft — including a personal dinner the night before his Pro Day at Ohio State. He said they got to know a lot about each other that night and really felt comfortable with each other.

i love the pick
because it gives us options. does this spell the end of jason david??? i started to like him by the end of last season, and i think he deserves a shot in greggggg’s system.
also i know we’re getting back in. if not the 2nd, then the 3rd. we scouted too many players in that range to just sit on our hands. esp since the patriots still have 7 picks left before round 4.
The problem with David is he is boom or bust
he will either get a pick or get burnt for a TD.
The main reason was that the safety was never on the backside to help.

What about this?
If JD’s always peeking in the backfield watching the QB, can we try him at Free Safety, where that’s the main job to watch the QB and then move to the ball?

Dig this:
6:59 p.m. Mike Triplett: Payton said the Saints aren’t specifically targeting a running back with their next pick. He said their efforts to trade up and get Beanie Wells were specifically because they had him so highly rated.
“It may not be running back, it may be another position,” Payton said if the Saints do wind up moving back into Round 2 or Round 3. “In Beanie’s case, it was the specific player. You get into trouble when you chase a position. We have good running backs here. We don’t know yet about (second-year pro Lynell Hamilton’s potential).”
Payton has said repeatedly in the past that he would feel comfortable heading into next year with the current foursome of Reggie Bush, Pierre Thomas, Mike Bell and Hamilton. But there’s still a strong chance they could add a between-the-tackles runner this weekend or later in free agency when some veteran backs get released.
One other trade note: Payton said the Saints were talking only about trading picks, not about any players on their current roster or on other teams’ rosters.
6:52 p.m. Mike Triplett: We hear the same thing every year: “He was the top player on our board, the guy we wanted all along.” But I think that was truly the case this year with the Saints and Malcolm Jenkins.
Sean Payton was adamant several times that Jenkins was the guy the Saints coveted most with the No. 14 pick, with the exception of maybe a couple guys who went very early in the draft.
“He was the guy we didn’t even want to mess around with trades if he was there,” said Payton, who added, “We were obviously hoping to draft defense.”
“He was a guy you just kept going through the evaluation process and the answers were yes the entire time with this player,” Payton said. “Ball skills. Character. Work ethic. Everything.”

that’s a weird trade-up-for pick. gave up way too much for him—brace benefited from never getting a double-team bc he was next to bj raji. let’s see what’s next…
We should all grimace at pick # 45 and see who's available that we "would" have gotten if we hadn't tradeed for shockey

who would you want?
connor barwin maybe? jarron gilbert? or if we hadn’t traded we could get the TE jared cook…

I don't know - it's just going to be so long until we pick again...thought it might be intersting to play "what if?"

Check out this delicious quote from G-Dub. I love it.
Gregg Williams, the New Orleans Saints defensive coordinator, talked before the 2009 NFL Draft this afternoon and shared a little insight into the philosophy he will employ this year overseeing the Saints’ defense.
"We are going to have multiple, and I mean multiple, defensive looks and packages," Williams said. "I can tell you today that people won’t say the Saints will be a base 4-3 or 3-4 defense. We will look different every single week and maybe even every different defensive series. We may be running six defensive backs out there, maybe four linebackers, who knows? I just want to create mismatches and create havoc."

I'm officially uncautiously optimistic about this season:
I get really excited when I read quotes like this:
Before heading into the draft room, Williams shook his head when asked how he was enjoying the Saints so far. "I will tell you the thing that I am most amazed at," he said. "I believe we are at 100% in the players participation in strength and conditioning. That to me says 100% commitment from the roster. I have never heard or seen that anywhere before. Honestly. That, to me, is a testament to Sean Payton and Mickey Loomis. It tells you how much this team stresses character and it shows up every single day here."
This guy is pumped for training camp and this season. The D will be tons better this season. Mark it down!

Christmas! Found another gift under the tree
rotoworld.com:
Panthers selected Florida State DE Everette Brown with the No. 43 overall pick in the NFL Draft.
Brown, the ACC’s sack leader as a redshirt junior last season, presumably fell in part because of the poor history of Seminoles ends. Jamal Reynolds, a similarly undersized rusher, flopped badly with the Packers and there have been several others. The concern stems from how FSU ends play. They line up extremely wide of the line, which calls for a transition period in the pros.

The Panthers have received no offers for DE Julius Peppers.
The Patriots were the only serious suitors, but they never came close to a formal offer. The Panthers aren’t expected to shop Peppers after the draft.
Restore the wetlands!
Here's more from our boys @ nola.com/saints
7:45 p.m. Mike Triplett: Had Malcolm Jenkins shaved about seven-tenths of a second off his 40-yard dash time at the NFL Scouting Combine, he probably never would have fallen to New Orleans with the No. 14 pick in the draft. But both Jenkins and Saints Coach Sean Payton said his speed won’t keep him from being an impact player with the Saints.
“The 40 time is a factor,” Payton said. “But when you watch his body of work, you feel very comfortable with his ability. He has a lengthy body of work.”
Jenkins (6 feet, 204 pounds) instantly becomes the Saints’ biggest cornerback, meaning he could match up against the likes of Detroit receiver Calvin Johnson and Atlanta receiver Roddy White – or even new Falcons tight end Tony Gonzalez and new Tampa Bay tight end Kellen Winslow.
In other words, he doesn’t need to project as a true corner or a true safety to fit well somewhere in the Saints’ defense.
Jenkins didn’t bother speculating as to whether his 40 time hurt his draft stock.
“I just think things happen for a reason,” said Jenkins, who was projected as a possible top-5 pick before he posted times of 4.51 second in Indianapolis and 4.55 seconds at his Pro Day. “It didn’t bother me. God’s going to put me in the right position. I think God’s got a plan for me.”
Malcolm Jenkins is gonna make Dave Waymer look like Lito Sheppard.
don't know if this is nervous wishful thinking or idle boasting on the Falcoholic live thread

Drat. I was hoping he might miraculously fall to us.
Saints need more help then that…
bet he can’t cover Gonzo
mwahahaha
Thats not even fair Gonzo would own him lol

idle boasting
Remember Gonzo from “The Muppet Show?” I think he always ran into serious trouble when he tried to ring a bell or something. Well, this Gonzo is gonna get the same treatment from our Gregg Williams D. Vilma will be happy to ring his bell for him.
It’s only wishful thinking when they say we need more help than Jenkins. I don’t see how we do. Sure, we could use a few more good players, but I like what we have now. Greg W. will be the difference maker.

not to beat a dead horse
but the jenkins pick is BEAUTIFUL. he was a top-five talent until he ran a slow 40 time—but 40 times really don’t equate to NFL success (challenge me on that if you disagree). i’ve been sitting here fretting about our lack of action in the 2nd round, but whatever— our offense is set, and we have a ton of talent on defense, and jenkins just brings that to another level. i’d never imagine we’d have so many options at corner, and you can’t help but be excited about next season.
now let’s see what gems we can unearth in the later rounds. WHO DAT!!!!
Is Pat Y on crack?
Check out this ARTICLE from ESPN. He says the Falcon’s Peria Jerry is the only NFC South pick today that is a guaranteed first day starter. He suggests that Jenkins may be but he’s not as much a sure thing as Jerry. I don’t know where he’s coming from on this. He needs to get some sleep or something and re-think this. Tracy Porter was an immediate starter last season and Jenkins is widely considered to be a class above him. Of course Jenkins will start day one. A tandem of Jenkins/Porter will be awesome. Get a clue, Pat!
Go Saints!!!! Deuce may be gone, but he will never be forgotten.
by David "Satch" Kelly on Apr 25, 2009 8:43 PM CDT reply actions
well
he might not start—he might be the nickel back at the beginning of the season, so technically pat may be right. but he’s still hugely superior to jerry in terms of positional value. plus he really could develop into an NFL superstar.
looks like rd 2 is done now, so i’m going to grab some dinner. tomorrow is another exciting day—hopefully we’ll get our athletic young LB.
Possible, but I can't believe that will happen
Maybe Greer will be the day one guy along with Porter. I don’t know. It all depends on G-Dub and how well Jenkins adjusts in camp. My money ($.50) is on Jenkins/Porter as first day starters.
Go Saints!!!! Deuce may be gone, but he will never be forgotten.

Pat has crack damage
He hedges on Jenkins. But this:
Freeman may or may not open the season as a starter.
That’s stupid. Freeman is in no way ready to be an NFL quarterback. No way. Camp is not long enough for him to get ready. Pat Y should know that. Unless he was shocked that the Bucs were stupid enough to take him and he hadn’t researched Freeman at all, that’s probably it. Pat, GA!

We won't allow Pat to ruin our buzz
We all know Pat has a secret love for the Bucs and he’s just trying to find a reason to believe in them.

Well, it's been interesting
I guess the obvious loser in this day’s draft—other than the Bucs (hee hee)—is the CSC Mock Draft. Luckily, the Saints did a bit better.
Here are some of the good players who are still available and might do us some good, if we can get into the third round (in no particular order):
Antoine Caldwell, center, Alabama
Tyrone McKenzie, linebacker, South Florida (despite a slow 40 time)
Rashad Jennings, running back, Liberty
Keenan Lewis, cornerback, Oregon State (from New Orleans)
Rashad Johnson, free safety, Alabama
Duke Robinson, guard, Oklahoma
Chase Coffman, tight end, Missouri
Michael Johnson, defensive end, Georgia Tech
Jarron Gilbert, defensive tackle, San Jose State
So…I guess we’ll continue this tomorrow. If I don’t hear otherwise from Dave, I’ll go ahead and set up another Open Thread for tomorrow’s rounds.
Bah!
