NFL Mock Draft 2007
 |
James Joyner | Sunday, April 15, 2007 |
Rick Gosselin has put together his first NFL Mock Draft of the 2007 season. He got himself into the sportswriters wing of the NFL Hall of Fame doing these, so he’s worth paying attention to.
| Team | Player | Pos. | School |
| 1. Oakland | JaMarcus Russell | QB | LSU |
| 2. Detroit | Adrian Peterson | RB | Oklahoma |
| Matt Millen has struggled with top-10 picks in his stint as general manager of the Lions. Peterson would be a safe and popular choice. Detroit had success using first-round picks on Oklahoma runners Steve Owens (1970) and Billy Sims (1980). | |||
| 3. Cleveland | Calvin Johnson | WR | Georgia Tech |
| 4. Tampa Bay | Brady Quinn | QB | Notre Dame |
| 5. Arizona | Joe Thomas | OT | Wisconsin |
| 6. Washington | Gaines Adams | DE | Clemson |
| 7. Minnesota | LaRon Landry | S | LSU |
| 8. Atlanta | Leon Hall | CB | Michigan |
| 9. Miami | Alan Branch | DT | Michigan |
| 10. Houston | Amobi Okoye | DT | Louisville |
| 11. San Francisco | Jamaal Anderson | DE | Arkansas |
| 12. Buffalo | Marshawn Lynch | RB | California |
| 13. St. Louis | Darrelle Revis | CB | Pittsburgh |
| 14. Carolina | Patrick Willis | LB | Mississippi |
| 15. Pittsburgh | Adam Carriker | DE | Nebraska |
| Carriker is the prototypical defensive end for a 3-4 scheme. But his true value lies is his versatility. With his size (6-6, 296), he can line up at any of the four positions along the defensive line. | |||
| 16. Green Bay | Ted Ginn Jr. | WR | Ohio State |
| 17. Jacksonville | Jarvis Moss | DE | Florida |
| 18. Cincinnati | Reggie Nelson | S | Florida |
| 19. Tennessee | Robert Meachem | WR | Tennessee |
| 20. N.Y. Giants | Levi Brown | OT | Penn State |
| 21. Denver | Lawrence Timmons | LB | Florida State |
| 22. Dallas | Dwayne Bowe | WR | LSU |
| With two starting wide receivers in their 30s, the Cowboys need a young player to build a future downfield passing game for Tony Romo. Bowe is a physical receiver in the Michael Irvin mold. | |||
| 23. Kansas City | Justin Harrell | DT | Tennessee |
| 24. New England | Jon Beason | LB | Miami |
| 25. N.Y. Jets | Aaron Ross | CB | Texas |
| 26. Philadelphia | Chris Houston | CB | Arkansas |
| 27. New Orleans | Dwayne Jarrett | WR | Southern California |
| 28. New England | Michael Griffin | S | Texas |
| 29. Baltimore | Joe Staley | OT | Central Michigan |
| 30. San Diego | Anthony Gonzalez | WR | Ohio State |
| 31. Chicago | Paul Posluszny | LB | Penn State |
| 32. Indianapolis | Greg Olsen | TE | Miami |

why would the Patriots not draft Posluszny?? Good choice with peterson to detroit everyone thinks he will go to clevland or minnesota why not detroit they are awful
Wow dude, why would the lions draft PETERSON??? They have a good RB in Kevin Jones, but he can’t produce because he has no line in front of him. And why would TB take Brady Quinn?? They have Chris Simms who’s shown Promise, and he’s like 23.
Good Mock Draft……
A terrible overall mock. TE is not at all a need for the Colts as they have Dallas Clark.
Vikings dont need 7 safeties, Dallas needs a CB. Tampa wouldnt draft Quinn with Simms, Gradkowski, and Garcia on the roster, I could go on and on but it would be pointless.
Just a terrible all around mock.
