Canadian Conference Canada: Toronto North with 13 votes (Runner up: Nova Scotia Vikings with 5 votes)
American Conference US: Memphis Pharaohs with 11 votes (Runner up: New Orleans Reapers with 7 votes)Game of the Week: Memphis Pharaohs at Windsor GamblersOur Expert Predictions:
Jeremy Piper : Memphis Pharaohs
Their losing streak is misleading. They will win this week. This may be a pivotal game for their season.
Mary Moore : Memphis Pharaohs
They will rely on their offense to pull them through.
Jim Nox : Memphis Pharaohs
For this game, it seems obvious that The Pharaohs rely on Richard Herman - RB on their offense. This is no reason to worry, he is great.
Darren Francis : Memphis Pharaohs
This will be a tough game and that is where leaders such as Reyes Miller - FB and Don Palmer - RB will shine and help them get the win. This is going to be a very viewer friendly game.

"The great thing about the game of football is, it's a team game," Moreland said on a conference call. "I'm just going to be one piece of the puzzle."Moore and Nox Mock DraftPick 1: Houston RoughRiders
Larry Moore: Paul Moreland - WR
Is a natural catcher, and will only get better as he gains more experience. Pretty good straight line speed. Can run the deeper routes in the pros. He is sharp, and that makes him very coachable. They gotta be happy to get this guy. Such a talent and he fits their needs. I would imagine the war room is celebrating when they make this pick.
Jim Nox: Paul Moreland - WR
Rarely drops the ball. You better not put a linebacker on this guy. Or a safety, for that matter. He is faster than his tape shows. Well schooled in the game, and it shows on the field. It is all about fit here. Is there a guy at a position of need, worthy of a pick this high? The answer, obviously, is 'heck yeah'.
Pick 2: Nova Scotia Vikings
Larry Moore: Jesus Garland - SS
Not the fastest guy, but his speed is definitely an asset. It is not often that the talent available fits perfectly with what you need. When it does, it makes for a win-win situation. This young man is going to be put in a position to succeed.
Jim Nox: Steven Felton - RB
This kid is fast enough to run your pitches and sweeps. This guy will bulldoze smaller defenders. People always say you should not prioritize needs over quality. That is not an issue here, they get to have their cake and eat it too.
Pick 3: New Orleans Reapers
Larry Moore: Nathan O'Toole - LB
Really strong. Will push through blocks. Not a topnotch forty time, but not bad either. Has enough quickness in his first step to do everything you ask of him. Fits nicely with their needs. Fits nicely with the draft spot. Getting it right is important with these early picks. This guy is right.
Jim Nox: Nathan O'Toole - LB
Really strong. Will push through blocks. Offenses will need to keep tabs on him. He will close down fairly quickly if left unblocked. They gotta be happy to get this guy. Such a talent and he fits their needs. I would imagine the war room is celebrating when they make this pick.
Pick 4: Windsor Gamblers
Larry Moore: Morris Berger - CB
The kind of leadership he shows makes coaches salivate. His college coaches talk highly of his work ethic. Sportsmanship, love of the sport and respect, is what you get with him. I like the way he tackles. Wraps up the ball carrier and drags him down. No need to take chances. He will get a great chance to earn the starting job. He fits what they are looking for. He is a solid player. Cannot go wrong here.
Jim Nox: Morris Berger - CB
A leader on the field and in the locker room. Known among his teammates as a hard worker. He is driven by the love of the sport. Reliable tackler. Fits the bill, great quality pick, and fills a soft spot on the roster. They should have no qualms here, run to the podium and get your man.
Pick 5: Seattle Totems
Larry Moore: Perry Calkins - WR
His college tape shows him catching the ball well. Rock solid player is just what they need. A great fit here, both in terms of need and quality.
Jim Nox: David Clanton - WR
This kid puts in the work. Sportsmanship, love of the sport and respect, is what you get with him. Sufficient speed to run deep routes, and enough to make him tough to catch if you lose sight of him. He addresses a need for them.
Pick 6: BCFC Bears
Larry Moore: Joseph Garza - G
His pass blocking skills are definitely adding to his value. He will need to hold his own against fully grown men, and teams believe he can do that. Educated well. Shows good understanding of the game. He fills a hole at the position. Blue-chip player. Will fit right in and start right away. Love it.
Jim Nox: Joseph Garza - G
Displays nice technique when blocking on pass plays. Keeps his balance and buys time for the quarterback. You do not need to tell him things twice. Very quick learner. Fill a need, get a quality player, everyone wins! He will fit right in with the pros.
Pick 7: Memphis Pharaohs
Larry Moore: Steven Felton - RB
This kid is fast enough to run your pitches and sweeps. He runs with great power, and hits the hole with a vengeance! With this kid, this is a need pick they will not regret.
Jim Nox: Perry Calkins - WR
Rarely drops the ball. People always say you should not prioritize needs over quality. That is not an issue here, they get to have their cake and eat it too.
Pick 8: Toronto North
Larry Moore: Anthony Foote - DE
Fits nicely with their needs. Fits nicely with the draft spot. Getting it right is important with these early picks. This guy is right.
Jim Nox: Anthony Foote - DE
With this kid, this is a need pick they will not regret.
Pick 9: Houston RoughRiders
Larry Moore: David Clanton - WR
Due to his work ethic, this kid is very coachable. He is fundamentally a good kid. You rarely see him commit stupid penalties. Sufficient speed to run deep routes, and enough to make him tough to catch if you lose sight of him. Some might say this is a 'need' pick, but we must remember, this is a really good player as well. He will contribute early and often. No losers here.
Jim Nox: Wayne Oneill - DT
His leadership is through the roof. He is on the frontline, always. Football is a team sport, and he knows it. Respected for his good behavior on the field. Educated well. Shows good understanding of the game. Solid talent that fits their needs. Really that is all there is to it. Perfect situation. Take the money and run.
Pick 10: Nova Scotia Vikings
Larry Moore: Everette Markham - RB
Known for helping out teammates, if they hit a rough patch, whether it is on the field or in their personal lives. Is not widely considered a power runner, but is strong enough to run through you if underestimated. Take the blue-chip player. Do not worry about sexier picks. He fits what you need and the quality is there.
Jim Nox: Jesus Garland - SS
This young man has more than enough speed for the position. They need players at the position, and good ones at that. He fits the bill, he is worth the pick. End of story.
