Sandwich Fest Round 1 Mock

I feel like the night before our actual draft is a good day for a mock draft.  I’ve done only the first round, because it would take too long to do more, but I paid careful attention to tendencies I’ve noticed from you guys over the past four years and coupled that with what the experts are saying this year to form what I think is an accurate forecast.  Will be fun to see how much I get right.

Round 1
1. Bry – RGIII – Bry tries to atone for the trade that cost him his season last year.  He wastes no time.

2. Scott – Chris Johnson – Why wonder if he’ll be there in round 2 when you can get him in round 1?

3. Brown – Ryan Braun – a little unorthodox (or is he Orthodox?) but there’s no Jewish football players, so Brown goes off the board here.

4. Ferencz – Tim Tebow – in a search for answers in life, Joe turns to the Jesus reincarnate.

5. Hill – Eli Manning – after reading the Throwback Thursday, Hill feels the need to once again dedicate himself to the New York Football Giants.

6. Hemrick – Cecil Shorts - this one was tough because Hemrick hates everyone, but he read in the skinny that Shorts was a flame in Week 1 and didn’t want to miss out.

7. Mintz – Ruben Randle - Spurned on his coveted Eli Manning, Mintz decides to break some hearts and stay true to his Giants roots and takes Randle.

8. Sean/Matt – Mike Williams Tampa Bay – Matt: “I like Doug Martin here.”  Sean: “If we’re going to take a Buc (which we have to do), let’s take Michael Clayton" /points to the name on the back of his jersey.  Matt: “He retired in 2007.”  Sean: “Well who’s the new Michael Clayton?”  Matt: “Mike Williams?”  Sean: “WE’LL TAKE MIKE WILLIAMS!”  Matt: /facepalm

9. Commish – Adrian Peterson – Improbably the best player on the board falls to me at 9.  I’m torn here between AP and Aaron Rodgers, or maybe Megatron, but I’ll go with Peterson.


10. James – BenJarvis Green-Ellis – James arrives at the 8:30 draft at 8:45 without any paperwork.  Panicked, he blurts out the only thing he can remember, a catchy nickname, “The Law Firm!” he shouts.  Then whispers “is he good?”
