It’s Thursday. Or as Courtney likes to call it, Rebecca Black Eve, but more importantly, this Thursday is special. It’s Draft Day! And as such, we have to do what all football fans do and make our predictions. We’ve already done our “Mock Draft” but this is a more accurate and forecasted draft boiled down from opinions of DBD members.

Instead of holding jerseys with players like Matthew Stafford, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell can look forward to shaking the hands of deceased, crazed, animated, and fictional players.

With the owners’ lockout looming, NFL franchises need to come up with alternative solutions for the upcoming season. The 2011 Draft is just around the corner, and if the top college players start to back out, teams will have to look elsewhere to fill their rosters. This sudden turn of events doesn’t leave much time for scouting, so nearby, hometown talent will be at a premium. With that in mind, our good friend Shaggy Lewis presents to you his own literal mock draft, full of “players” who can sell tickets without all that pesky “talent” or “practice” that current NFL players demand. Picks 1-16 were made yesterday.

17. Oakland Raiders – Charlie Sheen: In a move so stupid only Al Davis can think it’s a good idea, Oakland will trade all of its 2012 draft picks to get its original first round pick back to pick Charlie Sheen, who will declare himself the king of the NFL and try to steal Tampa Bay’s pirate ship.

18. San Diego Chargers – Ron Burgundy: The Chargers’ confidence will rise and performance will fall as the “Anchorman” replaces all of the sideline Gatorade coolers with scotch.

19. New York Giants – Carl Brutananadilewski: After several disappointing Decembers, the Giants are sure the “Aqua Teen Hunger Force” character and mega Giants fan will bring full intensity to every game, using D cell batteries to his advantage when necessary.

20. Tampa Bay Buccaneers – Randy Savage: When the Macho Man gets his hands on that football this Sunday! Sunday! Sunday! at Week Thirteen, the madness will run wild as Savage drops a flying elbow from the goalpost. Ohhhh Yeahhh!!!!

21. Kansas City Chiefs –Walt Disney: I know this is a Goofy pick, but KC doesn’t have that Minnie famous people calling it home, Jasmine I’ve never heard of. I’ve Donald the research I could, some Pixar just harder than others. There’s Snow White or wrong answer, although Disney may help bolster the Chiefs’ Ariel attack.

22. Indianapolis Colts – Michael Jackson: Indy’s performance wasn’t Bad last year, but if they Wanna Be Startin’ Something and Beat It this season, they’re going to need a Thriller to Jam the offense and make plays. Also, Billie Jean.

23. Philadelphia Eagles – Kevin Bacon: Bacon will already be familiar with the Eagles’ offense, since Andy Reid coached Brett Favre, who played in 1994 against Dan Marino, who appeared in Bad Boyz II with Michael Shannon, who appeared in The Woodsman with Kevin Bacon.

24. New Orleans Saints – Billy the Exterminator: Billy will raise the football IQ of all of New Orleans’ newfound fans as he explains every play step by step, while simultaneously making Louisiana natives look as dumb as possible.

25. Seattle Seahawks – Bill Gates: Although Gates’ $3.71 billion dollar salary may exceed the salary cap, the Seahawks will have a definitive advantage with all of the light sabers and hover boards at their disposal.

26.  Baltimore Ravens – Johnnie Cochran: The Ravens could use Cochran’s legal skills, as they have a history of signing players who have been accused of murder. Hear that, Vick haters? Donte Stallworth and Ray Lewis (allegedly) have killed humans.

27.  Atlanta Falcons – Ludacris: If you think TO’s display on the Dallas logo in 2000 was poorly received, just wait to see what Ludacris plans to do at the Georgia Dome 50 yard line during field goal attempts.

28.  New England Patriots – Peter Griffin: New England liked what it saw from the “Family Guy” during his brief stint at center in 2006, if only he leaves bringing cars on the field to his nephew Blake in Los Angeles.

29.  Chicago Bears – Oprah Winfrey: Win or lose, every fan at every Bears game will find a free iPad and new car keys under their seats.

30.  New York Jets – Shaquille O’Neal: O’Neal has all of the physical tools Coach Rex Ryan is looking for: size, strength, and size 23 feet.

31.  Pittsburgh Steelers – Dennis Miller: The former Monday Night Football host is best suited for any position besides quarterback, as his drawn out play calls will turn into rants and cause infinite delay of game penalties.

32.  Green Bay Packers – Chris Farley: With only the help of a single skinny teammate, Farley will eventually be able to shout, stumble and break things en route to an inevitable painful victory, every single time.

With the owners’ lockout looming over the NFL like a dark cloud, franchises need to come up with alternative solutions for the upcoming season. The 2011 Draft is just around the corner, and if the top college players start to back out, teams will have to look elsewhere to fill their rosters. This sudden turn of events doesn’t leave much time for scouting, so nearby, hometown talent will be at a premium. With that in mind, our good friend Shaggy Lewis presents to you his own literal mock draft, full of “players” who can sell tickets without all that pesky “talent” or “practice” that current NFL players demand.

1. Carolina Panthers – Michael Jordan: Air Jordan will unretire AGAIN but he won’t ever step on the field, taking over as GM because he possibly couldn’t do any worse.

2. Denver Broncos – Tim Allen: Allen’s presence will help keep Tim Tebow on the straight and narrow, in fear that Allen will rat on him for the slightest indiscretion.

3. Buffalo Bills – Bruce Noland: Buffalo will look to “Bruce Almighty” as the franchise’s savior, asking for nothing more than to be sent back in time to the early 90s and a stiff wind at the end of Super Bowl XXV.

4. Cincinnati Bengals – Marge Schott: Despite being 82 and dead, the former Reds’ owner has enough hatred for all of her non-Caucasian opponents to be quite a ferocious tackler.

5. Arizona Cardinals – Stephanie Meyer: Even though the “Twilight” author doesn’t bring much to the playing field, Meyer’s idea to change the franchise’s name to Team Kurt might just be enough to get the former QB to return like a…phoenix.

6. Cleveland Browns – Drew Carey: Although the bespectacled funny man has had a recent weight loss, the Browns are really just hoping opponents will think he is the ghost of Brian Burlsworth, and flee in terror.

7. San Francisco 49ers – Danny Glover: Glover is a low risk investment, as early on in training camp, the 49ers will find out if he’s Pro Bowl quality or simply too old for this (expletive).

8. Tennessee Titans – Dolly Parton: Oh, Tennessee Tit-AN-s. Sorry, I misread that.

9. Dallas Cowboys – Jerry Jones: With QB Tony Romo suffering a broken collarbone, Jones is now free to draft himself and become the team’s owner, GM, head coach, quarterback, scout, and hot dog vendor.

10.  Washington Redskins – Barack Obama: Drafting Obama probably won’t lead the Redskins to a Super Bowl, but he can ensure they have the exact same record for the next four seasons.

11.  Houston Texans – Chuck Norris: Chuck Norris will not walk to the draft podium. He will simply appear, and suddenly Roger Goodell will have his own concussion problem.

12.  Minnesota Vikings – Prince: Minnesota is banking on the 5’2″ Prince sharing work with Adrian Peterson and being able to hide behind the offensive line, undetected by the defense.

13.  Detroit Lions – Henry Ford: Detroit will ask Ford to rebuild the Lions and inspire the city, primarily with a offense that hands off 10 times before the last player makes a run for pay dirt.

14.  St. Louis Rams – Harry Caray: Embracing its history as a baseball city, St. Louis takes the opportunity to steal Caray back to his original home. Caray will agree to be paid entirely in hot dogs.

15.  Miami Dolphins – Horatio Caine: Like an all purpose coach on the field, the crime scene investigator will be able to decode the opponents’ entire game plan with one swab of DNA.

16.  Jacksonville Jaguars – D-Von Dudley: Dudley’s history as a professional wrestler means he fits every requirement for the Jaguars: athleticism, at 6’1″ and 280 pounds, and a hyphen, between the D and the V.
