5:18 PM- #32 Current Selection, Indianapolis selects Anthony Gonzalez, WR(OSU)

5:14 PM- The Super Bowl winners, Indianapolis Colts are now on the clock.

5:12 PM- #31 Current Selection, Chicago selects Greg Olsen, TE(MIA)

5:05 PM- Yep, Olsen is a Bear, he just put on the hat, we're just waiting for the official announcement.

4:58 PM- The Chicago Bears are on the clock now. They are going to take Greg Olsen, he's already been shown getting hugs and kisses from family members.

4:57 PM- #30 Current Selection, San Diego selects Craig Davis, WR(LSU)

4:45 PM- The San Diego Chargers are on the clock, you have to think they are going with a receiver here.

4:44 PM- #29 Current Selection, Baltimore selects Ben Grubbs, OG(AUB)

4:42 PM- The details on the trade are the Niners get the Patriots 28th overall pick and the Patriots receive the 4th round pick(110th overall pick) and 2008 1st round pick.

4:35 PM- The Baltimore Ravens are now on the clock, look for them to go with a linebacker or an offensive lineman.

4:34 PM- #28 Current Selection, San Francisco selects Joe Staley, OT(CMICH)

4:32 PM- The New England Patriots have traded their second 1st round pick to the San Francisco 49ers. I guess it's a no go for Harris in NE.

4:20 PM- The New England Patriots are back on the clock. I guarantee they pick David Harris out of Michigan. They are really high on him and they don't have a 2nd round pick.

4:19 PM- #27 Current Selection, New Orleans selects Robert Meachem, WR(TEN) Wow, surprising but good pick here. That offense is scary.

4:09 PM- The New Orleans Saints are now on the clock.

4:09 PM- The trade details are the Cowboys got the 26th overall pick(used on Spencer) from the Eagles in exchange for their 2nd round pick(36th overall from Cleveland), 3rd round pick(86th overall) and their 6th round pick(198th overall).

4:07 PM- #26 Current Selection, Dallas selects Anthony Spencer, DE(PUR) Great pick here.

3:59 PM- We have another trade, this time it's between the Eagles and Cowboys. No, I didn't stutter.

3:57 PM- Ok, well I got the linebacker and Miami part right.

3:56 PM- The Philadelphia Eagles are now on the clock.

3:55 PM- #25 Current Selection, Carolina selects Jon Beason, LB(MIA)

3:47 PM- The Carolina Panthers are now on the clock. I think we're going to have a back-to-back Miami selection here with Carolina taking Greg Olsen. If not look for them to take Joe Staley or a linebacker.

3:46 PM- #24 Current Selection, New England selects Brandon Meriweather, S(MIA)

3:32 PM- The New England Patriots(f/SEA) are now on the clock, they could go with linebacker Jon Beason or David Harris or maybe a receiver, offensive line, safety, lots and lots of different ways they could go here.

3:32 PM- #23 Current Selection, Kansas City selects Dwayne Bowe, WR(LSU)

3:29 PM- Thanks to the Fanhouse: If you were wondering who that hot blond sitting next to Quinn was, it's his girlfriend and Miami of Ohio soccer player, Lindy Slinger.

3:21 PM- The trade details are the Cowboys gave up their #22 pick to the Browns in exchange for the Browns 2nd round pick(36th overall) and the Browns 2008 1st round pick.

3:18 PM- The Kansas City Chiefs are now on the clock.

3:17 PM- #22 Current Selection, Cleveland selects Brady Quinn, QB(CLE) WOW!!!

3:16 PM- We have another trade. The Cleveland Browns have made a trade with the Dallas Cowboys. They are going to take Brady Quinn. Wow, the Browns are geniuses. Thomas and Quinn.

3:05 PM- The Dallas Cowboys are on the clock now, they have many other needs(CB, S, WR) but ProFootballTalk is thinking they go with Quinn. UPDATE: Mort is reporting that the Cowboys are taking calls from teams that want Quinn.

3:04 PM- #21 Current Selection, Jacksonville selects Reggie Nelson, S(FLA)

Oh and nothing to do with sports, but today is Jessica Alba's 26th birthday. Just thought i'd throw that in there. Yessir!

2:58 PM- The Jacksonville Jaguars are now on the clock.

2:56 PM- #20 Current Selection, New York(Giants) selects Aaron Ross, CB(DAL)

2:49 PM- Wow, Griffin at 19, it's a little earlier than expected but I think it's a great pick. I love the way Griffin plays, but I honestly thought he'd be in New England at the end of the day.

2:48 PM- The New York Giants are now on the clock. I'd say they go with a linebacker or an offensive tackle.

2:47 PM- #19 Current Selection, Tennessee selects Michael Griffin, S(TEX)

2:36 PM- I like this pick a lot, Mel Kiper said he draws comparisons to Ty Law and better yet he's a character guy. Hall is going to help our secondary in a significant way. Him and Joseph together should be a great duo.

2:36 PM- The Tennessee Titans are now on the clock.

2:35 PM- #18 Current Selection, Cincinnati selects Leon Hall, CB(MICH) Yay!

2:30 PM- My Cincinnati Bengals are on the clock now. I would like them to pick either Leon Hall, Anthony Spencer or Jon Beason.

2:29 PM- That was a dumb trade, Jarvis Moss would've still been there at number 21. They didn't have to trade up.

2:29 PM- #17 Current Selection, Denver selects Jarvis Moss, DE(FLA)

2:26 PM- The details on the trade are the Broncos receive the Jag's 1st round pick(17th overall) in exchange for the Bronco's 1st round pick(21st overall), 3rd round(86th overall) and their 6th round(198th overall).

2:24 PM- We have another trade. The Jacksonville Jaguars have traded their pick to the Denver Broncos.

2:19 PM- Jacksonville may look to Quinn too, Leftwich has 1 remaining year on his contract and he can't stay healthy. The starter in Jacksonville is up in the air right now. They have a lot of options right now, Nelson would replace Deon Grant, Leon Hall would compliment Mathis very nicely. Ect....

2:17 PM- So, what's the best part of the draft so far? I would say the "T.J. Whosyourmomma" commerical. It's run at least four times so far, and I laugh my ass off every time. "right, put it on the board, T.J. Houshamazilly....Championshiiiip ".

2:14 PM- Now, the Jacksonville Jaguars are on the clock.

2:12 PM- #16 Current Selection, Green Bay selects Justin Harrell, DT(TENN)

2:09 PM- Chris Mortensen is reporting that the Cleveland Browns are working hard to trade up and pick Brady Quinn. If they were to do that they will have had a hell of a first round, Thomas and Quinn. Damn.

2:05 PM- I had forgotten about this, but Davey just suggested they go with Greg Olsen. That makes a lot of sense seeing as how Bubba Franks was really bad last year. They might still try and trade for Moss later on too.

2:00 PM- (EDIT) The Green Bay Packers are on the clock now. They could take Robert Meachem or Dwayne Bowe seeing as how Ginn and Lynch are gone. ProFootballTalk hinted that they might take Brady Quinn.

1:58 PM- #15 Current Selection, Pittsburgh selects Lawrence Timmons, LB(FSU)

1:54 PM- The Pittsburgh Steelers are on the clock. Sadly, I think they will take Leon Hall, who along with Revis(just taken) I wanted for Cincy.

1:53 PM- #14 Current Selection, New York(Jets) select Darrelle Revis, CB(PITT)

11:46 PM- The details of the trade are the Panthers gave up their 1st round pick(14th overall) and their 6th round pick(199th overall) in exchange for the Jet's 1st round pick(25th overall), their 2nd round pick(59th overall) and their 5th round pick(164th overall).

11:44 PM- We have our first trade of the day, the Carolina Panthers have traded their 14th pick with the New York Jets. Look for them to take Leon Hall here.

11:40 PM- The Carolina Panthers are on the clock. I think they will take Greg Olsen, but they could trade down or maybe take Brady Quinn. Jake Delhomme was pretty average last season. Or they could take Reggie Nelson out of Florida.

11:39 PM- #13 Current Selection, St.Louis selects Adam Carriker, DE(NEB)

11:28 PM- The St.Louis Rams are now on the clock. They might go with Leon Hall/Darrell Revis or they could look to improve their defensive line with Carriker or Branch.

11:27 PM- Bruce Smith announced the Bills pick and before he said who was selected he said "god bless the Hokies" Amen! Of course the douches that are the Jet's fans booed him.

11:27 PM- #12 Current Selection, Buffalo selects Marshawn Lynch, RB(CAL)

11:19 PM- The Buffalo Bills are now on the clock. Look for them to either address cornerback or runningback. Leon Hall/Darrell Revis or Marshawn Lynch.

11:18 PM- #11 Current Selection, San Francisco selects Patrick Willis, LB(MISS)

1:14 PM- Roger Goodell has offered Brady Quinn and his family a private room where there is no media allowed. It is anticipated that he will have a long wait ahead of him.

1:05 PM- The San Francisco 49ers are now on the clock. Patrick Willis or Adam Carriker have got to be the way they go.

1:04 PM- #10 Current Selection, Houston selects Amobi Okoye, DT(LOU)

1:02 PM- I bet Brady Quinn feels like the fat kid that doesn't get picked for dodgeball.

12:54 PM- The Houston Texans are on the clock.

I'm speechless right now, the Dolphins needed a young quarterback and they took Ginn who has a foot injury.

WHAT THE HELL!!! OH MY GOD I CAN'T BELEIVE THEY JUST TOOK GINN!

12:51 PM- #9 Current Selection, Miami selects Ted Ginn Jr., WR(OSU)

12:48 PM- Steve Young just compated Brady Quinn's accuracy to that of someone in American Idol, you either can sing or you can't. He has sooo much make up on, he looks like a $2 hooker.

12:39 PM- The Miami Dolphins are on the clock. This is going to be a quick pick, Brady Quinn, no doubt about it.

12:38 PM- #8 Current Selection, Atlanta selects Jamaal Anderson, DE(ARK)

12:34 PM- Michael Smith says the Falcons want to trade out of the 8th spot, but if they don't then he thinks they will take Jamaal Anderson instead of Amobi Okoye.

12:28 PM- The Atlanta Falcons are on the clock, I see them taking Jamaal Anderson.

12:27 PM- #7 Current Selection, Minnesota selects Adrian Peterson, RB(OU)


12:25 PM- Everyone is saying the Vikings are going to Adrian Peterson, and Davey sure hopes so, he desperately wants Brady Quinn.

12:18 PM- The Minnesota Vikings are now on the clock.


12:17 PM- #6 Current Selection, Washington selects LaRon Landry, S(LSU)


12:14 PM- Yep, it looks like I may be wrong, they just showed Landry on the phone celebrating with his family and agent. It looks like he's a Skin. I don't understand that because their run defense is horrible but hey, why not, he's the best defensive player in the draft.

12:08 PM- Jaws says they should go with Landry, I strongly disagree, they already have Landry on the team...and his name is Sean Taylor. But the two of them could work out and be a hard hitting duo. If they don't trade the pick then they should go with Amobi Okoye or Jamal Anderson.

12:05 PM- The Washington Redskins are on the clock. I really think they will try and trade this pick, they only have one pick in first day and they need more picks, badly!

12:04 PM- ESPN continues to put the camera on Brady Quinn after every pick. Sort of like they did with Aaron Rodgers. Come on, like he's going to go to Arizona or Washington.

12:03 PM- #5 Current Selection, Arizona selects Levi Brown, LT(PSU)

12:01 PM- My boy, Michael Smith, says they take Levi right here and he was actually higher on their draft boards than Thomas.

11:56 AM- The Arizona Cardinals are on the clock, I expect them to take Adrian Peterson or Jamaal Anderson or a possible trade down for Levi Brown. Maybe they'll trade down.


11:53 AM- #4 Current Selection, Tampa Bay selects Gaines Adams, DE(CLEM)


11:47 AM- Chris Mortensen was just talking about how Jon Gruden really likes Brady Quinn and he's worked him out personally. Will the Buc's take Quinn? Adams? Peterson? Trade? I'd say Adams, but i've been wrong before.

11:45 AM- The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are on the clock. Could there be a trade???


11:41 AM- #3 Current Selection, Cleveland selects Joe Thomas, LT(WISC)


11:39 AM- Suzy Kolber said Calvin Johnson was "giggling". And Calvin said he's excited about going to Detroit and he's just happy to know where he's going. Don't get ahead of yourself CJ, you could be heading to sunny Florida or the ATL very soon.

11:36 AM- Brady Quinn's girlfriend is kinda hot. Enough said.

11:35 AM- If the Lions hold onto Johnson they instantly have one of the best(if not the best) receiving corps in all of football with Calvin Johnson, Roy Williams and Mike "Furry-ous" Furrey.

11:32 AM- The Cleveland Browns are now on the clock.


11:30 AM- #2 Current Selection, Detroit selects Calvin Johnson WR(GT)


11:25 AM- Chris Berman is a mind reader, just by looking at Calvin Johnson he has figured out that the Lions are going to pick him. Take that Miss Cleo.

11:21 AM- The Detroit Lions are now on the clock. Expect a trade coming soon, they will most likely choose Calvin Johnson and either keep him or ship him to either Tampa Bay or Atlanta.

11:20 AM- #1 Current Selection, Oakland selects JaMarcus Russell QB(LSU)

11:19 AM- I can't believe it, Keyshawn Johnson comparing the #1 overall rated player in the draft to himself. Or should I say, MeShawn.

11:17 AM- Adam Schefter is reporting that trade talks between the Lions and Falcons have resumed. If Oakland doesn't take Calvin Johnson 1st overall, then Atlanta has hopes of moving up to #2 and taking him.

11:10 AM- And here he is, Roger Goodell. "The 2007 NFL Draft is now open". "The Oakland Raiders are now on the clock".

11:04 AM- Keyshawn Johnson's name was just announced and what do you know, the New York Jet's fans booed. I have a feeling we're going to be hearing a lot of that today. There should be lot's of trades in the first round both with draft picks and veteran players. Look for Michael Turner(to Tennessee?), Randy Moss(to New England?) and Trent Green(to Miami?) to get traded sometime this weekend.

11:00 AM- It's now just seconds away from the Oakland Raiders being officially "on the clock". Early reports are that they are going to pick JaMarcus Russell and that they have assured him that he's their guy. But it's the Draft, you never know.

10:55 AM- Bringing in Beamer and the three former Hokies was a great touch for Goodell.

Beamer is giving a brief speech...I love that guy!

There is a moment of silence before the Draft to remember the victims of Virginia Tech. Representing Virginia Tech is Bruce Smith, Michael Vick and DeAngelo Hall and Head Football Coach, Frank Beamer.

The 2007 NFL Draft is just 10 minutes away from starting. And on a side note, Steve Young has A LOT of makeup on.
