to battle Lienhart for the job

Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
- -- Aristotle
Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
- -- The Buddha
It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
- -- Aristotle

"Scientists don't use "averages". Maybe armchair supertools on message boards ascribe some meaning to "averages" between two random data points. And maybe clueless amatuers "draw a straight line" through two random end data points to define a "trend". Experts don't.
They use mean annual and five year means in trend analysis. Don't tell me I have to explain the difference to you. "
it was linked on yahoo, can't remember but it was one of the regulars. I've seen 3 others that didn't even have him in the top 2 rounds. I should have pasted, my bad.

No worries... I have seen him that high as well. I think JAX can get him in the second if they really want him for ticket sales. This is a decent site that compiles most of the mocks out there. A lot of junk mocks on their from joe armchair, but some good ones. DRAFTTEK is a pretty decent site.

I like that WalterFootball site the best as well. As you said there are so many mock drafts out there it's just a clusterf*ck. I mean you see some with Jimmy Clausen going #1 and then others where he's in the 2nd round. I've seen Taylor Mays as high as #6 down to the middle of the 2nd round.
You are right about Tebow and Jacksonville. Jacksonville HAS to take him. It obviously becomes a cat and mouse game of where do they think they can get him. I read a good point where he is so revered down there that he will sell tickets for the first two years regardless of what he does. If he doesn't work out they had a two year boost. If somehow he becomes a good QB then they struck the jackpot.
they can get him in the second... wasting a first rounder on him seems pointless. The only thing they might have to worry about is someone like KC sitting ahead of them in the second taking Tebow and then offering a trade to Jacksonville to get their revered future clipboard holder.

the big ones are very similar in who's in the first round.
Many have Clausen 6-10 a lot have Bradford to the skins, mays very high the saftey from Ten very high.

I think Mays senior bowl week cost him the top half of the first round. My guess is he falls into the bottom third of the first round (at best). He could drop to the second. He is a hitter and an asset to the run game, but he did not show well in the passing game during senior bowl week.
