NFL draft: Advertiser's mock draft 3.0; Harvin drops
Advertiser Staff
Here is The Honolulu Advertiser's mock draft (2.0).
Changes based on Florida's Percy Harvin testing positive for marijuana at NFL Combine in February and the Atlanta Falcons acquiring all-pro tight end Tony Gonzalez from Kansas City.
If Cleveland trades wide receiver Braylon Edwards, then the Browns will probably pick a receiver at No. 5.
Note: The Detroit Lions are reportedly in discussions with three prospects and Lions general manager Martin Mayhew says the chances are very good Detroit will have a deal done with the No. 1 pick before the NFL draft begins Saturday.
