READING, PA - Wait a second, whats this, yet another mock draft? Ok, I know what your thinking.
"Oh come on now! You guys just did a mock draft, what gives?"
Hey, you didnt think a big shot like me would go without doing a mock draft of his own now did you? Well, I sort of did this one alone. The truth is this one was done by yours truly, PHN's Boston Bruins correspondent Tom Schettino, and the fearless leader in chief of our fine publication, Lou lafrado.
Ok, the truth is we "let" Lou participate. Hey, it was either that or he was going to fire us both, so if this mock draft does well you can bet your bottom he will take full credit for it.
Anyway, after reviewing our original mock draft, we felt it was time to revisit how it shook out. As you can imagine we felt it was time to make some changes based on what we were hearing around the league from various sources about how some players stocks were rising and falling.
After much deliberation and pain staking debate (actually it was more like begging and pleeding), we finally came up with a mock draft fo our own.
Again let us know what you think of it. We'd love to hear back from you.
