Contracts talks should be wrapped up by time you read this.

2. Washington.......LaVar Arrington/Penn State LB 6-3 250

Maybe they'll take Samuels here just to mess up everyone's mock draft Mock draft is a term used by sports websites and magazines in reference to a simulation of a particular league's draft. They are very popular in magazines and online, especially in reference to the NFL Draft. .

3. Washington.......Chris Samuels/Alabama OT 6-5 325

A starting LB and OT with first two picks. Take rest of draft off.

4. Cincinnati.......Peter Warrick/Florida State WR 5-11 196

Someday, Cleveland and Washington will regret ignoring Warrick.

8. Pittsburgh.......Chad Pennington/Marshall QB 6-3 229

No way we go 10 picks without someone taking a quarterback.

Who were the other 10 guys on defense, if New Mexico New Mexico, state in the SW United States. At its northwestern corner are the so-called Four Corners, where Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, and Utah meet at right angles; New Mexico is also bordered by Oklahoma (NE), Texas (E, S), and Mexico (S).  allowed 27 points a game?

11. N.Y. Giants.....Ron Dayne/Wisconsin RB 5-11 255

He could be a workhorse. Or just out of work in three years.

12. N.Y. Jets.......Travis Taylor/Florida WR 6-1 196

Poor guy will immediately draw comparisons to Keyshawn.

13. N.Y. Jets.......Bubba bub·ba

2. A white working-class man of the southern United States, stereotypically regarded as uneducated and gregarious with his peers.

15. Denver..........Sylvester Morris/Jackson State WR 6-3 216

They don't have a quarterback, so they better upgrade at receiver.

17. Oakland.........John Abraham/South Carolina LB 6-4 252

They need a receiver, and Al Davis might want Georgia Tech's Dez White.

18. N.Y. Jets.......Chris Hovan/Boston College DT 6-2 205

Offensive line needs help, but Hovan would make immediate impact.

19. Seattle.........Deltha O'Neal/California DB 5-11 191

Best corner in draft also a wonderful return man.

20. Detroit.........Stocker McDougle/Oklahoma OT 6-5 352

If he's already gone, look for Lions to grab to Wisconsin's Chris McIntosh.

21. Kansas City.....Shaun Alexander/Alabama RB 6-0 218

There's plenty of reasons to think Browns might be trading for this pick.

22. Seattle.........Rob Morris/Brigham Young LB 6-2 247

They already got O'Neal, so here's highest-rated player left on board.

23. Carolina........Chris McIntosh/Wisconsin OG 6-7 315

OK, if he's not available, we'll throw in Tennessee CB Dwayne Goodrich.

24. San Francisco...Ahmed Plummer/Ohio State CB 5-11 187

Walsh wants a corner but might settle for Jackson State's Rashard Anderson.

25. Minnesota.......John Engelberger/Virginia Tech DE 6-4 270

Everyone else Dennis Green wanted already got picked.

26. Buffalo.........Deon Grant/Tennessee S 6-2 209

They want Anderson, but he's gone. Grant is best of weak safety group.

27. N.Y. Jets.......Todd Wade/Mississippi OT 6-8 326

How many picks do these guys get?

28. Indianapolis....Darren Howard/Kansas State DE 6-4 281

There's a lot of nervous Colts execs holding breath that Howard is still here.

29. Jacksonville....Travis Claridge/USC OG 6-5 305

The best pure guard in draft can't slip past first round. Can he?

30. Tennessee.......Anthony Becht/West Virginia TE 6-5 269

Your guess is as good as ours at this point, but Titans need a TE.

31. St. Louis.......Adrian Klemm/Hawaii OT 6-4 306

Everyone thinks Rams want Klemm. So naturally they'll take someone else.
