The Jet jet jets are the Losers. They are ALWAYS the Losers in the book of the Bald Sports Guy.
Who the h is going to throw their new tight end Rusty something or other (he is no Dallas Clark no matter what anyone says).
As for MY Patriots, I wish they held the MAYO by trading down again from Number 10 to choose the Tennessee Vol tackling machine. But what is is what is. At least he is Under 30 and FAST and AThletic.

The 2008 NFL Draft Website with all the 2008 NFL Mock Drafts available now on PlanetDraft.com. It has all the 2008 NFL Draft News in one place. And here is the latest 2008 NFL Draft Top Five Draft Choices as projected on PlanetDraft.com.
1. Miami Dolphins – Virginia DE, Chris Long, In not the best year to have the top choice in the 2008 NFL Draft, the Dolphins go for a surefire replacement for Jason Taylor and take the right Long, Chris Long. Chris Long will be an All Pro for the Dolphins for many years. With Bill Parcells’ penchant to build on defense and with the need for the ultimate playmaker for the 3-4 defense setup, how can the can of Big Tuna go wrong.
2. St. Louis Rams – Michigan T, Jake Long. The other top rated long. Goodbye Orlando Pace and hello Mr. Jake Long. The Rams set out and get a major and long building block for their offensive line much to the delight of Mark Bulger and Stephen Jackson.
3. Atlanta Falcons – Lsu Defensive Lineman, Glenn Dorsey. The Falcons need Everything and although Matt Ryan of Boston College was difficult to pass up, what is rock with getting the ultimate defensive line stud. Rich McKay had the original Warren Saap with the Bucs and meet the new Mr. Saap. We are talking a perennial all pro defensive lineman wrecking havoc.
4. Oakland Raiders – Arkansas DB, Darren McFadden. How can Mr. Al Davis pass up by far the best offensive weapon and top talent in the 2008 draft. Well he can’t McFadden has all the talent in the world and worst case scenario might keep some of the Raiders rowdies in the stands awaiting the next electrifying play. And no bright lights in the Oakland nightlife so McFadden is safe there.
5. Kansas City Chiefs – USC DT, Sedric Ellis. The Chiefs take the best player available here that also fills the teams need on the Defensive Line. Herman Edwards is if nothing a defensive coach. After the Senior Bowl performance, if the Chiefs get Ellis at #5 , they will actually look like they know what they are doing.

Hey Draftniks. Check out PlanetDraft.com. Maybe Parcells Can Play Linebacker? More NFL Mock Draft News- The Miami Dolphins have a Long season ahead.
Most of the reputable NFL mock draft websites have the Dolphins taking either Jake or Chris Long in the 2008 NFL Draft. The two share the same last name, but are entirely different players, each with a skill set that the Dolphins need.
With the first overall pick in the draft, the Dolphins are under the proverbial gun, for the decision they make on April 26 will have long-lasting effects on the franchise—for better or for worse.
But which Long will sport the teal and orange next season?
I won’t play this out any longer; the Dolphins would be making a mistake if they take anyone other than Jake, the left tackle.
Powerful and athletic defensive ends aren’t exactly a dime a dozen these days, but nonetheless, a franchise left tackle is a rarity. Matched up against the league’s best pass rushers, the protector of the blind side is undoubtedly the best player on the offensive line and, as a result, the highest paid. Therefore, pouring all of your money into one place is justified if it’s a left tackle receiving the paycheck.
In addition, defensive linemen are often times products of the system that they play in and the players surrounding them. A dominant player who plays on an otherwise abysmal defensive line will not have much success, as the lack of talent around him makes it easy for the opposition to double- or even triple-team that player. Conversely, a mediocre player plugged into a successful system could appear much better than he actually is because the talent around him is drawing away defenders.
The offensive line does not work this way. A poor left tackle on a terrific offensive line will be batted around and humiliated play after play for the entire world to see. Linemen often times describe their position as being on an island, because regardless of the supporting cast, each player is on his own.
Therefore, the Dolphins could get away with mediocre defensive linemen because they have excellent blitzing linebackers and Jason Taylor to open gaps for them. But with one of the worst offensive lines in the league, they desperately need to start filling some holes and building for the future to help out their quarterback, whoever that may be in 2008.
And besides, look at the kid. Jake Long is a 6′7″, 315-pound intimidating mass of human being. But he has a great deal of athleticism to go along with his size; he played varsity baseball in high school (first base) and holds the school record for most career home runs and RBIs. He also has the experience to go along with it, as he was a three-year letterman at Michigan and is decorated with awards, including two consensus First-Team All-American berths.
After last year’s draft in which the Dolphins selected a punt returner with the ninth overall pick, the front office needs a solid pick in the 2008 NFL Draft. Take Jake Long! And watch him mash a Gator in action. Florida Gator that is.
