[QUOTE="AmishMafia, post: 548981, member: 2846"] Okay, here we go with version 2. I still like guys from my first mock, but I purposely didn't reuse a single player. That makes it more interesting and also gets me more picks on the books so that I might actually get a few right. First draft: 1 Trade for 2nd and 3rd. 2a Ryan Shazier Ohio State ILB 2b Deone Buchannon S Washington 3a Donte Moncrief WR 3b Stanley Jean-Baptiste CB 3c [Comp] Zack Kerr NT – 6’1” 322. 4th Josh Mauro DE Stanford – 6’6” 280# 5 Justin Britt OT 6a Ronald Powell OLB 6b [Comp] Marcel Jensen TE Fresno State 7 Darwin Cook S WV [url]http://www.packerforum.com/threads/amish-taking-control-of-gm-duties.50242/[/url] Here we go with version 2: [ATTACH=full]12111[/ATTACH] Murphy, Thompson, and McCarthy discussing auto lease vrs purchase while Amish 'recruitment consultants' can be seen discussing draft plans in back room.
