2005 NFL Draft Pre-Selections    Yes... It's that time of year again. The time of year when I must decide to make the trip from Long Lake, Minnesota to the Fargodome to watch the Bison Spring Game or just sit at home in the comfort of my recliner watching the NFL Draft. It's really not that hard of a decision... The Bison Spring Games is easily chosen the winner every single year. With that being said, I've decided to do every Bison fan a favor. Let's just call it an early Christmas present. I've done some meditating, some soul searching, and a whole lotta beer drinking to precisely decipher who each NFL team is going to draft on April 23rd. So there are no more excuses for missing the Outback Steakhouse Green & Gold Scrimmage.... There are no more excuses for missing any action down on the Fargodome floor while answering your cell phone from someone willing to give a draft update.... There are no more excuses for not attending the pre-scrimmage luncheon featuring Craig Bohl and an awesome feed dished out by the Outback crew. Get your printer warmed up because here it is..... (I've emailed a copy to each NFL team so they know who to pick.) Round 1 1. San Francisco - QB Aaron Rodgers (California) 2. Miami - RB Ronnie Brown (Auburn) 3. Cleveland - WR Braylon Edwards (Michigan) 4. Chicago - RB Carnell Williams (Auburn) 5. Tampa Bay - RB Cedric Benson (Texas) 6. Tennessee - CB Antrel Rolle (Miami) 7. Minnesota - WR Mike Williams (USC) 8. Arizona - QB Alex Smith (Utah) 9. Washington - CB Adam Jones (West Virginia) 10. Detroit - LB Derrick Johnson (Texas) 11. Dallas - DE Shane Merriman (Maryland) 12. San Diego - WR Troy Williamson (South Carolina) 13. Houston - DE Demarcus Ware (Troy State) 14. Carolina - OT Alex Barron (Florida State) 15. Kansas City - DE Erasmus James (Wisconsin) 16. New Orleans - CB Carlos Rogers (Auburn) 17. Cincinnati - DT Travis Johnson (Florida State) 18. Minnesota - DE Marcus Spears (LSU) 19. St. Louis - OT Jammal Brown (Oklahoma) 20. Dallas - WR Mark Clayton (Oklahoma) 21. Jacksonville - DE David Pollock (Georgia) 22. Baltimore - TE Heath Miller (Virginia) 23. Seattle - DE Mark Roth (Iowa) 24. Green Bay - S Thomas Davis (Georgia) 25. Denver - OT Khalif Barnes (Washington) 26. NY Jets - CB Justin Miller (Clemson) 27. Atlanta - S Brodney Pool (Oklahoma) 28. San Diego - DT Shaun Cody (USC) 29. Indianapolis - LB Channing Crowder (Florida) 30. Pittsburgh - WR Reggie Brown (Georgia) 31. Philadelphia - DE Dan Cody (Oklahoma) 32. New England - LB Odell Thurman (Georgia)     And one last thing for Vikings fans.... The Vikings will select kicker Mike Nugent from Ohio State in the second round. But your saying "wait a minute, Answer Man. Are any of the Bison going to be drafted?" Just a second while I stand on my head and yell a football chant. Yes, but only one Bison will be selected..... Let's see. Center Rob Hunt will go to the Chicago Bears with the 6th pick (220th overall) in the 7th round. Congratulations Rob!!!
