Mel Kiper Fan Club

College sport mecca site, Rivals.com, has released it's first mock draft results. Yes we're still playing the 2007 NFL regular season, and the first bowl game is played in 10 days. You have to be Mel Kiper on speed to take this with more than a grain of salt.

For what it's worth, they have LSU DT Glenn Dorsey going first to the Dolphins, Arkansas perennial Heisman candidate RB Darren McFadden going 2nd to the Patriots (yeah, they need help), and UVa Defensive End Chris Long going 3rd to the Rams. Yes, Chris Long is Howie Long's son. Louisville Brian Brohm is the first QB chosen in this mock draft, going 5th to Atlanta reuniting with his college head coach, Bobby Petrino.

Other notables; Boston College QB Matt Ryan at 11 going to the Bears. LSU Wideout Early Doucet going to Denver with the 15th pick to help out young QB Jay Cutler, and Michigan WR Mario Manningham to Tampa Bay with pick number 24.

Second round notables are Hawaii QB and Heisman candidate Colt Brennan at 39 to Baltimore, and USC QB John David Booty going to Jacksonville with the 58th pick. Of course after the bowl games start being played more underclassmen will declare, and this mock draft will be for nothing, but hey that's the fun of it. Call me after the Pats win the Super Bowl and we need something to talk about.
