MHR Community Mock Draft--Pick #1

With the #33 pick in the 2009 MHR Community Mock Draft, the Detroit Lions select....

RB, DONALD BROWN, CONNECTICUT

Detroit Lions

Round 2, Pick #33 overall

GM McDah

Details of the pick after the jump...

Star-divide

Just give him some room to run.

From GM McDah: Detroit should get their money out of Brown. Could lead all rookie backs in 2009 in all around yards: returner, running back and catching out of the backfield. Lions have no one like this and would be a change of pace player they don't have. Reminds me of a running back version of Eddie Royal.

Commish's Comments: There is no doubting D. Browns versatility, and he helps address a multitude of areas, something that makes him very valuable to the exceptionally under-talented Lions.  I think he isn't right for just any scheme, but Detroit should find a multitude of ways to take advantage of him.

ON THE CLOCK

New England Patriots are up next.  Nothing like 3 picks in one round to to get you excited!

The deadline for this pick is NOON MST, April 14th.  As long as I receive the pick by that time it will be valid.  To send me the pick, just email me at the address shown in my profile.

thought their running game had potential last year. The problem was they couldn’t throw the ball and the defense couldn’t keep the score low enough for them to actually run the ball.
