2011 NFL Draft E-mails – Crackhead Mail



  • From Ark:

    heres the top ten Top ten 2011 1 Carolina – Dareous 2 Denver – Petersen 3 Buffalo


    –> I think I speak for everyone when I say that’s one hell of a top 10.



  • From Tbone:

    top ten mistakes in your draft 1 chris culiver at 198 how about gone at 94 2 denarius moore at 194 how about gone at 159 3 chimdi chekwa at 162 how about gone at 74 4 shareece wright at 146 how about gone at 94 5 joe lefeged at 142 how about gone at 124 6 niles paul at 131 how about gone at 94 7 kenrick ellis at 126 how about gone at 74 8 dontay moch at 96 how about gone at 74 9 demarco murray at 96 how about gone at 74 10 ras i dowling at 81 how about gone at 60


    –> You have four players “gone at 74” – Chimdi Chekwa, Kenrick Ellis, Dontay Moch and DeMarco Murray. Naturally, the Patriots are drafting at No. 74, so Bill Belichick must be using one hell of a camcorder to get all of those guys on his team.





  • From 1788:

    Dude your round 6 sucks!!!! Same for your OG rankings. UNLV guard Matt Murphy had an awesome pro day!! Do some research!!!!!!!


    –> Well, at least my Rounds 1-5 don’t suck.

    And who the hell is Matt Murphy? I took your advice and did some research. CBS ranks Murphy as the 630th best player in this class. ESPN doesn’t rank him at all. So there you go. I did some research!!!!!!!!!!!!



  • From SheepHearder:

    Baaaaaaaa. Keep on following Walt! And by that I mean keep up the good work of your cut-n-paste mocks! Isn’t it nice to have a subscription to “IN” on ESPN.com? Makes your “job” a whole lot easier, huh?!


    –> What the hell is a “sheep hearder?” And for someone who makes fun of ESPN constantly, I’m very disgruntled that someone thinks I “cut-n-paste” from their site.





  • From John:

    the charges are going to draft julio jones.there not going for wilkerson.wilkerson will come in the second round.thats my opinion.


    –> What? How the hell are the “Charges” going to get Julio Jones? And saying “Wilkerson will come in the second round” sounds kinda dirty.



  • From Nunua:

    what are u talking about with the jags?


    –> Weh? What are you talking about about talking about with the Jags? Ouch, I just made my head hurt.



  • From TT:

    Could you possibly hate on the Titans any more than you do in this mock draft? Each of the first three picks, you mention something about how they don’t care about character, if anybody will take this guy the Titans will, they don’t care about the major red flags, etc. I just think you’re being ignorant in acting like the Titans are the only team that has taken risks on players in the past. At the end of the day, talent trumps character the majority of the time. This strategy backfires sometimes, (see Talib from the Bucs getting arrested this week. Why no Buc hate?) but to act like Tennessee is the only team that is ever willing to take these risks is beyond narrow minded.


    –> Umm… here are some write-ups from my Bucs picks:

    “One team that will ignore Clayborn’s character concerns is Tampa Bay.”

    “Jabaal Sheard is a late first-round talent, but will probably fall into the middle of Round 2 because of a previous arrest. The Buccaneers, however, have a tendency of looking past these things.”

    As our good friend 1788 would say, “Do some research!!!!!!!!!!!!”
