With it being September 11, I would first like to pay respect to all of those that were lost and those who lost loved ones in the tragedy seven years ago. Our thoughts go out to all of you.
With that said it’s on to business, and as the title indicates this is my 2009 mock draft that’s so early it really doesn’t make any sense to have one out yet, but it sounded like fun, so I did it. To determine the draft order I used my predictions that I posted yesterday. With teams that had the same record, I again used Bryan to determine what I should do, and again I believe he was unaware as to why I was asking him these questions. I’m sure there are official tie-breakers to determine who picks first when teams have the same record, but knowing my luck I would get through all of the tie-breakers only to find that I’d have to flip a coin for my final decision. So, seeing how this is all a lot of guess work at this point anyway, I simply asked Bryan (who also made the first pick for the Rams) which teams he thought was better when I couldn’t decide who should go where. But now, without further ado…
