Tonight I was invited to take part in a dueling mock draft on FinsRadio.net with show host Sunstroke Stevens. To listen to the broadcast, you can do so here -- my audio is a bit louder than the hosts, so it should be easy enough to pick me out, if that's something of interest:
We broke the record for the longest show in the history of the program. For the record, here is how the dueling mock played out.

This was a fun exercise, and it shows how a talented player like Dan Connor could slip out of the first round. The only pick that felt a bit odd to me was matching Michigan QB Chad Henne with Chicago at #14. But Henne's stock has been on the rise, and we'll see how Henne does tomorrow at the combine.
